Abstract

The invention relates to a device for attaching two elements allowing its pre-assembly. Specifically, the invention relates to a fixing device (1) for fixing an assembly comprising at least a first element and a second element, and each element of the assembly is provided with an opening intended to be placed opposite one another. The fixing device comprises a holding cage (2) and a pin (3). The holding cage (2) comprises a protruding flexible clip (21) having two legs (22) intended to engage through the openings of the first and the second elements to retain the assembled elements to one another; and a device (25) for keeping the holding cage (2) to the first element. The pin (3) is arranged in the holding cage (2) and has a first end (30a) to receive an external assembly force and a second end (30b). The fixing device (1) also comprises a selective coupling device (31) for the pin (3) and the cage (2).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for fixing elements. Devices of this type are of particular interest in the automotive field. Background technique [0002] In the automotive field, there may be a need to be able to attach various elements such as brackets or modules to the vehicle's components. This could for example be a part attaching a panel to a door or a fender to the bodywork or even a body extension in the upper part of the cabin. Several fastening techniques exist to achieve this, such as using attached rivets or screws. However, these techniques can make attachment difficult to achieve. [0003] From US8496420 and WO2016171863 there are known fixing devices. These documents describe a fastening device consisting of a clip and a pin. Each element is provided with an opening facing each other when the two elements are placed against each other. Insert the clip into the opening to place the unit in the assembled position, then place the p...
