Automatic tolerance compensation between two components uses tolerance compensation sleeve and screw with press fit, having opposite threads

摘要

Tolerance is automatically compensated for by screwing together two components (1,2) via two opposite threads. The e.g. left-handed thread of a tolerance compensation sleeve (5) is moved against a screw (3) due to the press fit (4) of the screw fitted into it. After the tolerance is compensated for, the press fit slides to fasten the e.g. right-handed screw in the component.
