Abstract:
Device for bracing connection of spaced-apart components (1, 2) by a connecting screw (5), comprising a supporting part (3), which is securable on the first component (1) by means of fastening elements (8), and a spacer part (4), which is displaceable axially in relation to the supporting part (3) by rotation and, as the connecting screw (5), fitted into an opening of the spacer part, is screwed in, is carried along, as a result of friction-fitting engagement of lateral surface of a shank of the screw against resilient elements (9) projecting into the opening, until it strikes against the second component (2), both the supporting part (3) and the spacer part (4) being threaded bushings (6, 7) formed in one piece, and the fastening elements (8) and the resilient elements (9) forming parts of a respective shaped member, whereinthe fastening elements (8) and the resilient elements (9) are formed by cut-out tongues of the respective shaped member, and the supporting part (3) and spacer part (4) each form, on a border of the bushing, a supporting surface formed by an outwardly projecting annular collar (10, 11).
