Patent attributes
A device for securing an object on a holder includes a platen attached to the object, a tightening element that pivots relative to the platen so that it can be folded back against the platen or raised perpendicularly to the platen. A lock is provided for locking the tightening element in the position perpendicular to the platen. The lock includes a tab that moves between a stowed position in which, when the tightening element is in the raised position, the tab bears against the tightening element and blocks it in this position, and a drawn out position in which the tab allows the tightening element to pivot towards the platen so that, in the folded position of the tightening element, the tab bears against a face of the tightening means different from the inner face.
