Abstract

The device has a mounting frame with a nut housing, into which a threaded rod is inserted. The threaded rod has interrupted teeth and meshes with a nut, which likewise has interrupted teeth. An adjustable carrier, with which the threaded rod can be detachably fixed at each depth of insertion, is arranged behind the nut. A time-consuming screwing in and out of the threaded rod as well as fixing with a lock nut are avoided.
