  • Publication number: 20220196049
    Abstract: A device for compensating for tolerances between two components to be interconnected may have a hollow-cylindrical compensating element connected with a hollow-cylindrical base element. The device may also have a threaded element for screwing together with a screw element that extends through an inner cavity of the base element and an inner cavity of the compensating element. The device may also have a driving element which is arranged in the inner cavity of the compensating element and is in frictional engagement with the screw element passing through the cavities, such that a torque exerted by the screw element can be transmitted to the compensating element. The threaded element for screwing together with the screw element is formed in the inner cavity of the compensating element as an inner thread. An arrangement for compensating for tolerances between two components to be interconnected is also described.
