ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a securing assembly for securing an object to a profiled element with flanges which delimit a longitudinal slot between them. The securing assembly comprises a metal bearing element which is designed to bear against the outside of the profiled element, an elongate metal anchoring part which is situated on the bottom side of the bearing face of the bearing element, and a support for the anchoring part, which support is provided with one or more spring members and is optionally removably connected to the bearing element and which support supports the anchoring part resiliently in such a manner that the anchoring part can be moved up and down with respect to the bearing element. The securing assembly and its anchoring part can be aligned with the longitudinal slot and the anchoring part can be introduced into the profiled element through the longitudinal slot in such a manner that after rotation of the securing assembly the anchoring part extends at an angle, preferably substantially at right angles, with respect to the longitudinal slot, and the anchoring part grips behind the flanges of the profiled element. The securing assembly furthermore comprises a wedge mechanism which is effective between the bearing element and anchoring part. When the wedge mechanism is operated, the anchoring part is pushed down with respect to the bearing element in such a manner that the flanges of the profiled element can be accommodated in accommodation spaces between the bearing element and anchoring part when the securing element is rotated.
