Fastening apparatus with tolerance equalizationa

Abstract

Fastening apparatus for fastening a component B to a component A with automatic equalization of tolerances in the separation distance between the component B and the component A, comprising a receiving element and an adjustment element, which can be screwed to the receiving element via a first thread pairing of a first thread direction, and a fastening screw, which can be screwed into the receiving element via a second thread pairing of an opposite thread direction and can be connected with the adjustment element via a detachable drag connection, in order to also turn the adjustment element when the fastening screw is turned and to thereby move for the purpose of tolerance equalization in line with component B, while the receiving element below a flange has at least one radially projecting holding projection so that the receiving element can be immobilized through positive and/or frictional holding of the component A between the flange and the at least one holding projection on the component A.
