DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

(16) The connection system, which enables two or more parts (P) having connection hole (D) thereon to be connected or to form connection on the connection hole (D) on the surface of a part (P), essentially comprises at least one cylindrical hole bushing (2) which passes into the connection hole (D) and which has at least one screw hole (21) vertical to the surface of the part (P) on which it is placed, at least one bolt (3) which is placed on the hole bushing (2) such that its head part (31) will remain on the lower surface (A) of the part (P) or inside the part (P), and the head part (31) of which is equal to the diameter of the hole bushing (2) or in smaller size, at least one allen slot (32) which is in form of allen hole at the end of the bolt where the head part (31) is not present, at least one nut (4) which is attached at the bolt end extending towards outside the part (P) and which fixes the bolt on the hole bushing (2) with rotary movement, a circular base (51) which is parallel to the surface of the hole bushing (2) and which is equal to the hole bushing (2) diameter or in smaller size, at least one washer (5) which extends vertically on the base (51), which is comprised of at least one rib (52) collapsing by being compressed between the head part (31) and the hole bushing (2) upon tightening the nut (4) and the bolt remaining fixed or the nut (4) remaining fixed and turning the bolt, which prevents the head part (31) from passing through the connection hole (D) upon the ribs (52) opening to a larger width than the diameter of the connection hole (D) in horizontal direction, that are placed such that they will be between the head part (31) and the hole bushing (2), at least one spacer (6) which is placed on the bolt such that it will be between the nut (4) and the hole bushing (2), and which prevents the nut (4) from passing through the connection hole (D).

(17) The inventive connection system (1) fixes the bolt on the part (P) or the parts (P) by placing the bolt, nut (4) and the washer (5) on the hole bushing (2), placing the hole bushing (2) inside the connection hole (D) on the part (5) which is desired to be connected, and performing a locking process with opening movement of the washer (5). When two or more parts (P) are desired to be connected, the connection holes (I)) on the parts (P) are aligned, and the hole bushing (2) is passed through both connection holes (D).

(18) In the inventive connection system (1), the part (P) on which the bolt is desired to be placed has an upper surface (B) which can be interfered by the user, and a lower surface (A) which cannot be accessed by the user and which is in opposite side of the upper surface (B) of the part (P). The connection hole (D) is inserted before in form of a hole from the upper surface (B) of the part (p) towards its lower surface (A). The hole bushing (2) is preferably in same thickness with the part (P) wall thickness or has similar sizes. For example, the wall thickness of the part (P) is 3 cm, while the hole bushing (2) is 3 cm or 2.95 cm. Bolt, washer (5) and the nut (4) are placed on the hole bushing (2), and the hole bushing (2) is arranged such that it will interference fit into the connection hole (D) and the head part (31) and the washer (5) will remain on the lower surface (A) of the part (P) or inside the part (P). Upon the nut (4) being held fixed and an allen head performing rotary movement by passing into an allen slot (32) or holding the bolt fixed and rotating the nut (4), the head part (31) of the bolt moves towards the hole bushing (2) and the head part (31) of the bolt applies force in vertical direction on the ribs (52) of the washer (5). The ribs (52) compressed by the head part (31) of the bolt perform bending movement and open in horizontal direction, and thus it is enabled that the diameter of the washer (5) reaches larger values than the diameter of the hole bushing (2). Since the washer (5) reaches a greater value than the diameter of the connection hole (D), it fixes the head part (31) of the bolt on the lower surface (A) of the part (P), and the nut (4) performs locking through the upper surface (B) of the part (P). In this way, the bolt (P) is fixed on the part (P) from its upper surface (B) and its lower surface (A).

(19) In one embodiment of the invention, the washer (5) is in form of a cut ring. There is at least one circular (53) recess on the inner surface of the cut ring shaped washer (5) contacting the head part (31) of the washer (5), and a circular protruding surface (311) on the head part (31) of the bolt in which the recess (53) of the washer (5) will fit. Upon the nut (4) being held fixed and an allen head performing rotary movement by passing into an allen slot (32) or holding the bolt fixed and rotating the nut (4), the head part (31) of the bolt moves towards the hole bushing (2) and applies compression force on the washer (5). The washer (5) performs opening movement in horizontal direction by means of its cut ring shape upon the protruding surface (311) applies force on the washer (5) through the recess (53), and it is enabled that the diameter of the washer (5) reaches greater values than the diameter of the hole bushing (2). Since the washer (5) reaches a greater value than the diameter of the connection hole (I)), it fixes the head part (31) of the bolt on the lower surface (A) of the part (P), and the nut (4) performs locking through the upper surface (B) of the part (P). In this way, the bolt (P) is fixed on the part (P) from its upper surface (B) and its lower surface (A).

(20) In one embodiment of the invention, there is at least one opening recess in form of a channel vertical to the surface of the washer (5), on the outer surface of the cut ring shaped washer (5). The opening recesses enable the washer (5) to open more balanced and proportional with the force of the head part (31).
