 Image Number 4 for United States Patent #5256087.
Before the flat plug (4) is inserted into a perforation (3) of the base (1), at least one rib (7) extending in the direction of insertion is stamped on a flat side. After the flat plug (4) has been inserted, the rib (7) is peeled opposite the direction of insertion and deformed in the direction towards the underside of the base. This results in a positively locking fastening of the flat plug (4) without deformations in the perforation (3) of the base.
