The present disclosure relates to a tolerance compensation device for bridging a distance between two components to be connected to one another, comprising a base element and a compensating element which can be screwed into the base element, the base element forming at least one stop and the compensating element having at least one elastically deformable transport securing means which is designed in such a way that it must overcome the stop with temporary deformation in order to screw the compensating element into the base element.

The invention relates to a method for installing a piece of home automation equipment, and to a system for adjustably attaching a piece of home automation equipment to a wall, comprising at least two supports (1), each one comprising a support shaft and a holding device, and at least two adjustable attaching elements. The adjustable attaching elements each comprise a supporting frame (2) and a mechanical connection element (3). The adjustable attaching elements also comprise a locking device.

A tolerance compensation fastening apparatus (1) for fastening a first vehicle component (200) to a second vehicle component (300) by way of a bolt (100), the fastening apparatus being set up to compensate for a tolerance within a tolerance compensation range. A fastening system including such a fastening apparatus, as well as to a method for fastening a first vehicle component to a second vehicle component by way of a bolt.

The present invention relates to a vehicle body assembly structure allowing a distance between a vehicle body and a part to be adjusted in any of left-right, front-rear, and up-down directions with a simple structure such as a screw.

A transportable valve rack for securing a plurality of pressure safety or pressure relief valves in an upright position. The valves of the type having a bolted flange-type connection and the rack comprises a base assembly and a top plate mounted on the base assembly. The top plate includes a plurality of areas, with each area comprising a plurality of holes arranged on a circumference of two or more concentric circles. The plurality of holes extends through the top plate and at least four holes are on the circumference of each concentric circle. The holes are sized and arranged to align with bolt holes of pre-selected flanges of particular size and pressure rating. Nuts and bolts extended through aligned holes secure the valve to the valve rack.

A compensation nut fastener assembly to connect first and second panels includes first and second nuts. The first nut includes a shaft having an outer threaded portion and a fastener-receiving channel. The first nut is connected to the first panel through the fastener, and the fastener is threadably secured to the first nut within the fastener-receiving channel. The second nut threadably retains the first nut, and includes a retaining wall having an internal threaded portion defining a central passage configured to threadably engage the outer threaded portion of the shaft of the first nut. The second nut is connected to the second panel, and the first nut is moveable within the central passage toward the first panel when the fastener threadably engages the first nut in order to compensate for a gap between the first panel and the second panel.

COMPENSATION NUT, of the type used to perform fixing together of two parts which may be joined together at a slightly variable distance while maintaining said distance separating them, used for example in motor vehicles in order to fix the supports of dashboards to the vehicle structure, said nut being formed by a combination of a top part, one or more intermediate nuts and a base clip or nut, which are provided with threads which allow mutual mating thereof and mutual retraction or extension thereof by means of a single screwing operation, said threads each being provided with stops which limit relative displacement thereof.

The invention relates to a device for compensating tolerances between a first component and a second component to be screwed to it by means of a connecting screw, comprising a base element and a compensation element that is in thread engagement with the base element, the thread engagement being non-self-locking in such a way that the compensation element moves out of the base element when the connecting screw exerts an axial force on the compensation element.

The present invention relates to a fastening arrangement for fastening a component A to a component B with automatic tolerance compensation between the components A and B. The fastening arrangement comprises a fixable base element into which a mounting screw can be screwed via a first thread pair, and an adjusting element with an external thread that can be screwed into the base element via a second thread pair, wherein a first and a second anti-rotation safeguard are provided between the base element and the adjusting element, wherein said anti-rotation safeguards can be used to prevent detachment of the adjusting element from the base element during transport as well as locking of the adjusting element with the base element.

A connection unit for connecting a first component to a second component with a distance in between. The connection unit has a connection screw having a head in the shape of a first ball segment and a shank. The shank has an outer thread. The connection unit also has a base element having: a second outer thread, and a first portion having a first inner diameter; a through-opening is provided at a second axial end and has a second inner diameter which is smaller than the first inner diameter, and an outer side of the base element is in the shape of a second ball segment. The first portion and the through-opening are distanced axially and are connected by a transition portion, which at least partly provides a bearing surface for the head of the connection screw, and the shank extends through the through-opening.
