Abstract

See full text

The disclosure relates to an assembly (1) for providing a fastening possibility for a vehicle component to a body component (11). The assembly (1) includes a connecting element (2) and a retaining element (3). The retaining element (3) includes a base body having a retaining region (4), and the connecting element (2) includes a base body having a receiving region (5), in which at least the retaining region (4) of the retaining element (3) is received in a rotatable manner relative to the receiving region (5) about an axis of rotation. The assembly (1) can be transferred from a pre-assembly or deliverable state into an assembled state. In the pre-assembly or deliverable state of the assembly (1), the retaining element (3) lies in a first rotational position relative to the receiving region (5) of the connecting element (2) counter to a torsion torque serving as a biasing force and exerted by a biased torsion spring (6) on the retaining element (3), wherein, in the assembled state of the assembly (1), the retaining element (3) lies in a second rotational position that is different from the first rotational position. Due to an external pulse or trigger exerted on the retaining element (3), the assembly (1) can be transferred from its pre-assembly or deliverable state into its assembled state. When the assembly (1) is transferred from its pre-assembly or deliverable state into its assembled state, the retaining element (3) is at least partially transferred into the second rotational position due to the force of the torsion spring (6).
