Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 - 13 . (canceled) 
     
     
         14 . Tolerance compensation comprising:
 a flat part with a first recess for receiving a bolt of an attachment part; and   a tolerance slider with a second recess for receiving the bolt;   wherein the flat part has a longitudinal axis extending from its end face edge in longitudinal direction and a transversal axis extending transversally to the longitudinal axis,   wherein the first recess has a greater extent in a direction along the longitudinal axis of the flat part than the second recess in that direction,   the first recess has an extension in a direction along the transversal axis which corresponds at least to the extent of the second recess in this direction, and   the tolerance slider for receiving the bolt in the first and second recess is arranged on the flat part in such a way that it can be displaced in a direction along the longitudinal axis of the flat part over the first recess,   wherein the flat part is slotted from the front face edge into the first recess and   the end face edge is elastically deformable due to the slot, so that the tolerance slider can be pushed onto the end face edge by compression of the end face edge.   
     
     
         15 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 14 , wherein the tolerance slider is arranged on the flat part so that it cannot be lost. 
     
     
         16 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 14 , wherein the tolerance slider is arranged on a wide surface of the flat part and grips behind a longitudinal edge of the flat part. 
     
     
         17 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 16  wherein the tolerance slider grips behind both longitudinal edges of the flat part. 
     
     
         18 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 14 , wherein the tolerance slider is guided in a groove arranged on a side surface of the flat part. 
     
     
         19 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 18 , wherein the tolerance slider engages in the groove. 
     
     
         20 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 14 , wherein the tolerance slider is guided in the first recess. 
     
     
         21 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 20 , wherein the tolerance slider is guided in a groove arranged at an inner edge of the first recess or that the tolerance slider embraces an inner edge of the recess. 
     
     
         22 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 14 , wherein the first recess is rectangular or square. 
     
     
         23 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 22 , wherein the second recess is an oblong hole. 
     
     
         24 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 14 , wherein the second recess is an oblong hole. 
     
     
         25 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 14 , wherein the transverse axis of the flat part is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the flat part. 
     
     
         26 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 14 , wherein the first recess has an extent in the direction along the longitudinal axis and the transversal axis of the flat part which corresponds at least to a tolerance of the position of the bolt on the attachment part. 
     
     
         27 . Tolerance compensation of  claim 14 , wherein the tolerance slider is made of a metal or a plastic. 
     
     
         28 . System with a tolerance compensation of  claim 14  and an attachment part, wherein a flat part with the tolerance compensation is attached to a bolt arranged on the attachment part, wherein the bolt is attached to the attachment part with tolerances and goes through the first and the second recess. 
     
     
         29 . System of  claim 28 , wherein the tolerance slider is held in a clamping manner at the bolt.
