Abstract

The present invention thus relates to a mounting device having a metallic base plate, on which multiple fastening elements are provided, from each of which at least a partial area projects above the base plate. The mounting device is obtainable by incising fastening element blanks into the surface of the metallic base plate while leaving one connection edge per blank in such a way that they each have a web-shaped base area, which comprises the connection edge on one end, and a head area adjoining the base area, which projects laterally beyond the neighboring base area on at least one side. At least one partial area of the blanks is bent out of the base plate around at least one bending edge located in the base area. The projecting edge of the head area adjoining the base area runs at an angle between 0° and 70° in relation to the plane of the base plate after the fastening elements are bent out of the base plate. In addition, the present invention relates to a method for producing this mounting device.
