Patent ID: 7654783

Claim:
A clip part ( 4 ) for joining together first and second components with a connection part ( 20 ) that is provided with an external thread ( 21 ) with a nominal diameter (D 1 ), the clip part ( 4 ) comprising: a top plate ( 10 ), a base plate ( 3 ) that faces the top plate ( 10 ), and a joining section ( 9 ) that joins the top plate ( 10 ) with the base plate ( 3 ) at a distance, whereby a cutout ( 11 ) is made in the top plate ( 10 ) and a cutout ( 5 ) is made in the base plate ( 3 ), these cutouts facing one another, and with an elongated shaft part ( 1 ), which is formed on the base plate ( 3 ) and which has a smooth-wall shaft cutout ( 2 ) which leads into the cutout ( 5 ) in the base plate, whereby the nominal diameter (D 1 ) of the connection part ( 20 ) is matched to the inside diameter (D 2 ) of the shaft cutout ( 2 ) in such a way that the external thread ( 21 ) engages with the smooth-wall inside of the shaft cutout ( 2 ) of the shaft part ( 1 ) by cutting a thread ( 15 ), whereby the cutout ( 11 ) in the top plate has a dimension (D 3 ) that is greater than the inside diameter (D 2 ) of the shaft cutout ( 2 ), wherein the cutout ( 11 ) in the top plate has, at least in sections, a dimension (D 3 ) that is smaller than the nominal diameter (D 1 ) of the external thread ( 21 ) of the connection part ( 20 ) such that the cutout ( 11 ) has a smooth surface before the external thread ( 21 ) of the connection part ( 20 ) has engaged the cutout ( 11 ) and a threaded surface ( 16 ) after the external thread ( 21 ) has engaged the cutout ( 11 ).
