Claim:
Arrangement for fastening a rail ( 10 , 142 , 222 , 224 , 252 , 300 , 302 ) having a rail foot ( 16 , 236 , 258 ) resting on a support ( 34 , 170 , 230 , 310 , 348 ), comprising a load-distributing plate ( 14 , 144 , 226 , 228 , 304 ), arranged between the rail foot and the support, a resilient first intermediate layer ( 30 , 136 , 176 , 250 , 312 ) supporting the load-distributing plate relative to the support, and, if required, a second intermediate layer ( 32 , 196 , 232 ), which extends between the first intermediate layer and the support and comprises an essentially non-resilient material, a holding element ( 26 , 28 , 106 , 108 , 236 , 254 , 322 ) connected to the support, from which holding element extends at least one elastic clip ( 22 , 24 , 234 , 270 , 272 ) having several legs ( 38 , 40 , 42 , 44 , 46 , 48 , 50 ) and which supports itself on the rail foot, wherein the holding element ( 26 , 28 106 , 108 , 2336 , 254 , 322 ) is an insert, which is removably insertable into the load-distributing plate ( 14 , 144 , 226 , 228 , 304 ) and which allows movement relative to the load-distributing plate in the direction of the support ( 34 , 170 , 230 , 310 , 348 ), whereby the load-distributing plate is directly preloadable via the holding element relative to the support, or in that the holding element is formed together with the load-distributing plate as a unit, the holding element forming a unit with the load-distributing plate having a through-opening ( 70 , 118 , 186 , 246 ), in which is arranged a second insert ( 62 , 102 , 304 , 188 , 220 , 248 ), which insert is movable relative to the holding element and allows an adjustment relative to the holding element, and through which passes a screw element ( 78 , 164 , 190 , 288 , 324 ), connecting the holding element and the support ( 34 , 170 , 230 , 310 , 348 ) and which can be screwed into the support, whereby the load-distributing plate can be indirectly preloaded relative to the support by the holding element.
