Component connection and method for the detachable connection of the components of a component connection
First Claim
1. A connection between components, comprising:
- a first component;
a second component;
at least two pairs of fixing elements arranged at a distance from one another and by which the first and second components are detachably connected to each other, whereineach pair of fixing elements comprises a female fixing element and a male fixing element configured for insertion into the female fixing element,a fixing element of each pair of fixing elements is provided on the first component and the other fixing element of each pair of fixing elements is provided on the second component, andthe fixing elements of the pairs of fixing elements are respectively located on the first and second components to produce a bending stress in the first and second components upon detachably connecting the two components, whereby a bending of the first and second components occurs.

Abstract
A connection between components includes a first component, a second component, and at least two pairs of fixing elements spaced apart by which the two components are detachably connected. Each pair of fixing elements has a female fixing element and a male fixing element that is inserted into the female fixing element. A fixing element of each pair of fixing elements is provided on the first component and the other fixing element of each pair of fixing elements is provided on the second component. The fixing elements are arranged such that on detachable connection of the two components by the pairs of fixing elements in the two components, a bending stress results in the components.

26. A method of permanently connecting first and second components, the method comprising the acts of:
-
first, detachably connecting the first and second components to one another using at least two pairs of fixing elements, each pair of fixing elements comprising a female fixing element and a male fixing element, wherein in each case, a fixing element of each pair of fixing elements is provided on the first component and the other fixing element of each pair of fixing elements is provided on the second component, wherein the fixing elements are arranged to produce a bending stress in the first and second components upon the detachable connection of the first and second components; and second, permanently bonding the first and second components together after the first and second components are first detachably connected via the at least two pairs of fixing elements. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28)
