  • Publication number: 20260126069
    Abstract: An axial tolerance compensation arrangement for the automatic compensation of tolerances between a first and a second component including: a nut element with a radially outer fastening structure, which is fastenable in a component opening of the first component, and an inner nut thread of a first thread direction, a hollow screw with a head at a first axial end of the hollow screw and a hollow-cylindrical shaft having an adjusting thread at a radial outside matching the nut thread and at a radial inside a fastening thread with a second thread direction opposite to the first thread direction. The fastening thread interacts with a fastening screw of a second thread direction so that the first and the second component are fastenable via the tolerance compensation arrangement. The fastening thread includes a dragging element that connects the fastening screw with the hollow screw using a releasable dragging connection.

The fastening thread interacts with a fastening screw of a second thread direction so that the first and the second component are fastenable via the tolerance compensation arrangement, wherein the hollow-cylindrical shaft comprises a disassembling protection at an axial end which faces away from the head. The disassembling protection prevents unscrewing of the hollow screw from the nut element.

  • Patent number: 9655256
    Abstract: An electronic circuit, comprising at least three circuit boards (2.1, 2.2, 2.3) fastened at a frame (1) and electrically connected via contact pins (7) arranged therein, and an electric connection (11), connected to a third of the circuit boards (2.1). The circuit shall show a low structural space and here be cost-effective in its production and assembly. The circuit boards (2.1, 2.2, 2.3) are arranged in levels parallel in reference to each other and are fastened at a predetermined mutual distance at the frame (1), with bases (4, 5, 6) being embodied at the faces of the frame (1), with the ends being parallel to the faces of at least two of the bases (4, 5, 6) in one level, arranged in groups, and with the embodiment of the frame (1) and the circuit boards (2.1, 2.2, 2.3) being adjusted to each other.
