Device for compensating for tolerances between two components to be connected to one another
A device for compensating for tolerances between two components to be connected to one another may have a hollow-cylindrical base element. The device may also have a hollow-cylindrical compensating element which comes into a first threaded engagement with the base element. The device may also have a connecting element extending through a first cavity of the device for connecting the two components. The connecting element comes into a second threaded engagement with one of the components and/or a first nut element. A second nut element is arranged in a recess of the compensating element in such a way that it comes into a third thread engagement with the connecting element. When the connecting element is screwed into one of the components and/or into the first nut element, the second nut element, at least in portions, is axially movable independently of the compensating element and relative thereto.
1 . A device for compensating for tolerances between two components to be connected to one another, comprising:
a hollow-cylindrical base element,
a hollow-cylindrical compensating element which comes into a first threaded engagement with the base element and which can be moved from an initial position into a compensating position via rotation relative to the base element, and
a connecting element extending through a first cavity of the compensating element for connecting the two components,
wherein the connecting element comes into a second threaded engagement with one of the two components and/or a first nut element, and
wherein a second nut element is arranged in a recess of the compensating element in a way that said second nut element comes into a third threaded engagement with the connecting element when the connecting element is screwed into the device,
wherein when the connecting element is further screwed into one of the two components and/or into the first nut element, the second nut element is axially movable independently of the compensating element and relative thereto,
wherein the first cavity comprises the recess for the second nut element and a portion axially below the recess and above the first nut element,
wherein the portion axially below the recess and above the first nut element has an inner contour for direct facing engagement with an outer contour of the connecting element,
wherein the inner contour is frustoconical with a first upper radius and a second lower radius, the first upper radius being larger than the second lower radius,
wherein, when the inner contour and the outer contour are aligned concentrically to one another, at least one radial overhang is formed by and between the inner and outer contours.
2 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein the second nut element is arranged lower in the recess than a flange surface of the compensating element by at least one synchronizing height.
3 . The device according to claim 2 , wherein the at least one synchronizing height corresponds to at least one thread pitch of the first threaded engagement between the compensating element and the base element.
4 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein the second nut element is arranged in a form-fitting manner in the compensating element in the initial position.
5 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein the compensating element comprises a receiving portion in which the second nut element is arranged in a form-fitting manner in the initial position.
6 . The device according to claim 5 , wherein the receiving portion comprises a number of longitudinal ridges.
7 . The device according to claim 6 , wherein the receiving portion has a hexagonal contour.
8 . The device according to claim 6 , wherein the number of longitudinal ridges extend along a longitudinal axis in the receiving portion and have a decreasing height toward a flange surface.
9 . The device according to claim 8 , wherein said second nut element is movable counter to an insertion direction of the connecting element in a direction of the flange surface of the compensating element.
10 . The device according to claim 6 , wherein the number of longitudinal ridges have a shape and/or dimensions that the second nut element is arranged in the receiving portion at least in the form-fitting manner.
11 . The device according to claim 6 , wherein the number of longitudinal ridges have a shape and/or dimensions that the second nut element is arranged in the receiving portion at least in a frictional manner in an axial direction along a longitudinal axis of the device.
12 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one radial overhang is formed on the compensating element.
13 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein the inner contour is non-circular in cross-section and the outer contour is circular in cross-section.
14 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein the base element and the compensating element have a same internal diameter.
15 . The device according to claim 1 , wherein the second nut element is braced against a second component.
16 . A compensation device, comprising:
a hollow-cylindrical base element,
a hollow-cylindrical compensating element,
wherein an inner diameter of the compensating element contacts an outer diameter of
the base element,
a first nut element,
a second nut element, and
a connecting element,
wherein a first cavity of the compensating element comprises a recess for the second nut element and a portion axially below the recess and above the first nut element,
wherein the second nut element is independent of the compensating element such that the second nut element can move completely independently of the compensating element in an axial direction,
wherein the portion has an inner contour for direct facing engagement with an outer contour of the connecting element,
wherein, when the inner contour and the outer contour are aligned concentrically to one another, at least one radial overhang is formed by and between the inner and outer contours.
