Abstract

A tolerance compensating mounting device (100, 100') has a threaded fastener (110, 110'), an outer member (120, 120') including a mounting bore, and a tubular member (130, 130', 230, 330, 430, 530, 630). The tubular member (130, 130', 230, 330, 430, 530, 630) has an internal surface (132a, 132a') rotatably coupled to the threaded fastener (110, 110') and an external surface (134a, 134a') rotatably coupled within the mounting bore of the outer member (120, 120') such that the tubular member (130, 130', 230, 330, 430, 530, 630) rotates about a center axis of the tubular member (130, 130', 230, 330, 430, 530, 630) in synchronization with rotation of the threaded fastener (110, 110') to move with respect to the outer member (120, 120') in a direction protruding from the outer member (120, 120') and then the threaded fastener (110, 110') subsequently rotates with respect to the tubular member (130, 130', 230, 330, 430, 530, 630) upon further rotation of the threaded fastener (110, 110'). The tubular member (130, 130', 230, 330, 430, 530, 630) has a tool engaging structure (138, 138', 238, 338, 438, 538, 638) formed on an axial end surface of the tubular member (130, 130', 230, 330, 430, 530, 630) at a first axial end portion with the tool engaging structure (138, 138', 238, 338, 438, 538, 638) being radially spaced between the external surface (134a, 134a') and the internal surface (132a, 132a') of the tubular member (130, 130', 230, 330, 430, 530, 630).

Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention generally relates to a tolerance compensating mounting device for compensating for clearance tolerances formed between a vehicle component and a vehicle body while mounting the vehicle component on the vehicle body. Background technique

[0002] Many interior components of a conventional motor vehicle are connected together and / or to the body of the vehicle by threaded fasteners. From an aesthetic point of view, it is desirable to have interior components fit together without play. However, from a manufacturing point of view, the cost of fitting the interior components together without play is very high. Accordingly, tolerance compensating mounting devices have been developed to adjust the clearance between vehicle interior components and / or between vehicle interior components and the vehicle body. An example of a conventional tolerance compensating mounting arrangement is disclosed in US Patent No. 6,884,014. This patent discl...
