Abstract
An assembly method for joining a telescopic rod part of a length-adjustable connecting rod, the method includes the following steps: providing a first section of the telescopic rod part, the first section comprising a connecting-rod eye and having a connection thread, providing a second section of the telescopic rod part, the second section comprising the piston rod, to which a piston is fixedly connected, and having a connection thread, wherein the second section has already arranged thereon at least sealing and/or supporting and/or closing elements, which are to be secured to the second section and which are to be mounted onto the piston rod and the piston, respectively, from the side of the associated connection thread, providing a tool for establishing a sufficiently strong frictional engagement with the piston rod and the piston, respectively, by means of form-fit clamping, establishing a sufficiently strong frictional engagement with the second section of the telescopic rod part by means of the tool, screw fastening the first section of the telescopic rod part to the second section of the telescopic rod part by means of the respective connection threads, applying the necessary tightening torque between the first section of the telescopic rod part and the second section of the telescopic rod part by means of the attached tool. In addition, the present invention relates to the use of a telescopic rod part of a VCR connecting rod in such a method.
