Abstract

An arrangement for producing a connection between two structural parts for preventing any relative movement thereof, consists of a blind bore in the one part and a through bore in the other part, a pin being inserted in fitting manner into the blind bore and projecting into the through-hole. Since the diameter of the through-hole is larger than the diameter of the blind bore an annular space is obtained within the through-hole which is filled out by a sleeve which is deformable through application of ultrasonic waves.
