摘要： An assembly comprises a male component (1) and a female component (2) which connect together to form a mechanical connection, the female component (2) being adapted to at least partially receive an end portion of the male component (1). The female component (2) has at least one bore which is adapted to receive a clamping pin (8) which can be tightened to clamp the female component (2) around the male component (1). A guide (12) is provided which is carried by the male component (1) and which defines at least one blocking region and one opening region (17), the opening region being aligned with the at least one bore (7) in the female component (2) to permit insertion of the clamping pin (8) into the bore when the male component (1) and female component (2) are correctly aligned and the blocking region otherwise preventing insertion of the clamping pin when the male component is inserted into the female component with an incorrect alignment. The guide (12) assists in achieving correct alignment of the male and female components during assembly.
