Abstract
An assembly for tightening and securing includes a first male part and a second female part fitted together, which have complementary forms.

The annular means is connected in a translational manner to the part on which the annular means is mounted when the annular means abuts with the part on which the means is mounted, and arranged to interact with a peripheral surface of the complementary part during a rotation of the annular means in relation to the complementary part.
