摘要： The invention comprises a tolerance compensating mounting device comprising a bushing having an internal and external thread. The bushing is threaded into a part to be mounted to a surface. A bolt is then threaded into a bushing bore using the internal threads. The internal threads cause an interference fit between the bolt shank and the threads, temporarily preventing further insertion of the bolt. The bolt is then turned further, thereby turning the bushing and causing the bushing to unscrew from the part toward the mounting surface until the bushing seats on the mounting surface, thereby completely compensating for a tolerance gap. As the bolt is turned further, at a relatively low torque the sacrificial internal threads are stripped allowing the bolt to be fully torqued into the mounting surface hole, thereby simultaneously connecting the components with a properly torqued connection while compensating for a tolerance gap.

摘要： A rotary shaft, such as an automotive crankshaft, for rotation about an axis carries an eccentric substantially circular section, radially extending flap (6), connected to the radially outer surface of which is an annular housing (16) affording a cavity defined in part by radially inner and radially outer coaxial cylindrical surfaces. The axis (22) of the cavity is offset from the axis (4) of the shaft. The cavity accommodates an annular inertia mass (20) and the radially inner and outer surfaces of the cavity are opposed to radially inner and outer surfaces, respectively, of the inertia mass whereby there are two pairs of opposed surfaces. One of the said pairs constitutes bearing surfaces guiding relative motion of the inertia mass and the housing (16) about the axis (22) of the coaxial cylindrical surfaces. The other of the said pairs is spaced apart to define an annular space accommodating a displaceable material, such as a grease, the inertia mass and the cavity having a dimension in the radial direction which has a maximum value at a first position opposite to the direction of eccentricity and decreases progressively in both circumferential directions to a second position offset by 180° from the first position.
