1 TARIFF FLOATING TIE-DOWN SYSTEM PROVIDING TOLERANCE COMPENSATION TECHNICAL AREA 5 This invention is designed to compensate for tolerance accumulations occurring in two axes (X and Y). It relates to a designed floating coupling system. It falls within the field of mechanical couplings. This innovation minimizes discrepancies encountered, particularly in assembly processes. By doing so, it aims to provide a more flexible and efficient connection. 10 PREVIOUS TECHNIQUE In current technical practices, tolerances that occur in production processes Their accumulation can lead to significant problems during assembly. In particular, 15 In the areas where the assembly will be performed, the connecting elements must move within a specific axis. The aim is to eliminate tolerance accumulations by ensuring this process. However, this The method is generally limited to the axis along which the connector can move, and other It is not possible to compensate for the tolerance accumulations that occur in the axes. "Floating nut" used in the aviation and automotive industries. systems to compensate for discrepancies that occur during the assembly process These systems have been improved. However, in these systems, the nut is usually only on a single axis. and is allowed to move only to a very limited extent (approximately 2 mm). This limited movement... Mobility provides an effective solution across wider axes and tolerance accumulations. 25 It is unable to provide. When applications in this field are examined, it is seen that those produced by the extrusion method and Systems offering movement in only one direction have been observed. In these systems, As a result of the parts interlocking with claw-like structures, only a certain 30 Displacement in this direction is possible. This situation allows for free movement in both axes. It is inadequate for applications requiring mobility. 2 The patent application with publication number US11624386B2 essentially describes the system as follows: the connecting element has limited movement capability in only one axis It is designed for use with clawed structures or similar connections. using mechanisms to move the connector along an axis It provides. The movement level is quite low (approximately 2 mm), therefore it is more than 5 It is insufficient in compensating for wide tolerance differences. As a production method... The extrusion method is used, and the parts produced by this method are joined together with a snap-on mechanism. It gains mobility by passing through. However, this design is particularly cost-effective. Adequate solution for applications requiring efficiency and multi-axis movement. It does not offer. 10 In conclusion, the current technique is biaxial (X and Y) and includes wide ranges of motion. It lacks solutions that provide tolerance compensation. In this context, cost-effectiveness and a floating binder system is needed which also offers advantages in terms of ease of production. It is located. A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION This invention provides great mobility, cost-effectiveness, and ease of production. Specifically, one that has the ability to move in two axes (X and Y) with dimensions of 20x20 mm. It is a floating clamping system that provides biaxial tolerance compensation. 20 This invention is designed to compensate for tolerance accumulations that occur during assembly processes. It is an improved floating coupling system and its feature is that it is biaxial (X and Y) in total. 20x20 mm movement capability, preventing positional changes that may occur during assembly. It effectively compensates for deviations, thus facilitating easy assembly and reducing errors to 25. The goal is to minimize the share. Another feature of the invention is that the fastening element (bolt) can move freely. The enclosed pool structure provides both mechanical durability and flexibility. This provides 30% efficiency compared to traditional single-axis motion systems. It provides a wider range of motion. 3 Another feature of the invention is the bending of sheet metal materials as a production method. It is designed using this method, providing a cost advantage. This production solution is fast and... It offers an efficient production process while optimizing costs. Another feature of the invention is that its innovative design allows for a wide range of applications. The key is to enable it to adapt to the range of applications. Thus, the invention requires... as an effective solution in both industrial and consumer-oriented applications It enables its use.
