Abstract
The invention relates to a lockable, multi-purpose fastener (20) comprising two complementary parts nested one inside the other: - a deformable fastening piece (21) comprising a housing (215), - a locking pin (22) configured to fit into the housing (215) and movable between an unlocked and a locked state in which the locking pin (22) applies a constraint to the skirt (214) of the fastening piece, which deforms and produces a clamp formed between the deformed skirt (214) and the plate (210), the clamp being capable of gripping a plate. The invention also relates to a system comprising one or more fasteners (20) and a vehicle comprising such a system. [Figure for the abstract: Fig. 11]
