An arrangement for fastening first and second components with automatic compensation in spacing between the components has a base element with first and second axial ends and a holding structure for holding the base element in an opening of the first component. An adjusting unit screwable into the base element has a driver unit. A fastening screw is connectable to the adjusting unit via the driver unit, such that, when the fastening screw is rotated, the adjusting unit can be rotated conjointly and moved into contact with the second component. The holding structure has a holding segment arranged such that, by the holding segment, an angle between the first and second component can be compensated such that, when the adjusting unit makes contact with the second component, a longitudinal axis of the fastening arrangement runs perpendicular to a plane of the second component.

Fastening arrangement with angular compensation function

The present invention provides an adjustment elementwith which a component can be fastened and can be positioned in space. The adjustment element has the following features: a banjo boltwith an external threadwith which the component holdercan be positioned in the axial direction of the banjo bolt, an inner elementwhich is arranged within the banjo boltand to which the banjo boltis rotatably fastened, and a washerwhich is held between the banjo boltand inner elementin a manner such that it can be laterally displaced in the axial direction of the inner elementsuch that the adjustment elementcan be laterally positioned and can be fixed with a fastening meansreaching through the washer
