Example Embodiment

[0022] figure 1 A perspective view of a section of the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 is shown. The first plate and the second plate are clamped and fixed by a connecting assembly 3, which extends through the plate 1. 2 of long holes 4,5. The longitudinal axes of the elongated holes 4, 5 are parallel to each other and are oriented along the plane marked by III-III.

[0023] The panel 1 made of plastic, especially fiber-reinforced plastic, is a part of the lining element of the car body, which is not visible from the outside in the assembled vehicle. The lining element can be, for example, a mudguard, a door, a cover or the like. Relatively speaking, the plate 2 is made of metal, especially steel plate, and is a component of the vehicle body support structure. In particular, the second plate can be a part of the frame rail or a frame part fixed to the frame rail.

[0024] The connection assembly 3 here includes bolts 6 (but from figure 1 Only the tip of the screw 7 can be s...

Abstract

A connecting element for a vehicle body substructure and a panel element having different heat expansion coefficients are provided. The connecting unit penetrates an opening in a plate of the substructure. A plate of the paneling element is held with play in the direction of its surface normal is in a groove of the connecting unit. The connecting unit includes a bushing having two parts that are moveable against one another in the direction of the surface normal, between which the other plate is held.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a motor vehicle body having an underbody structure and a lining element which are made of different materials and thus have different coefficients of thermal expansion. Background technique [0002] When a lining element made of plastic is assembled on a metallic substructure, the lining element bends due to the intense expansion caused by the heat generated. When the connection between the substructure and the lining element does not have the necessary clearances that allow displacements related to the different expansion characteristics, the lining element is exposed to heat, for example when the lining element is exposed to direct sunlight Bending occurs, causing distortion and damage. [0003] Car bodies are exposed to higher temperatures than sunlight during the drying process after painting. In order for the vehicle body to be able to withstand the drying process without damage in this case, a degree of freedom of movem...
