Embodiments of the invention may include an apparatus and a method for accomplishing tolerance compensation of a fastener that secures a first member to a second member. The apparatus and method may include the use of a unitary insert that is received in a first opening of the first member. The unitary insert may define a slotted hole such that a mechanical fastener passes through the slotted hole and the first opening in the first member. The mechanical fastener may then attach to the second member. The tolerance compensation may be achieved by adjusting an orientation of the slotted hole with respect to the first member.
Des modes de réalisation de l'invention peuvent comprendre un appareil et un procédé permettant de réaliser une compensation de tolérance d'un dispositif de fixation qui fixe un premier élément à un deuxième élément. L'appareil et le procédé peuvent comprendre l'utilisation d'un insert unitaire qui est reçu dans une première ouverture du premier élément. L'insert unitaire peut définir un trou fendu de sorte qu'un dispositif de fixation mécanique traverse le trou fendu et la première ouverture du premier élément. Le dispositif de fixation mécanique peut ensuite se fixer au deuxième élément. La compensation de tolérance peut être obtenue en ajustant l'orientation du trou fendu par rapport au premier élément.
