Abstract
A shielding component, in particular a heat shield, has at least two shield components () which can be connected to each other by a connection unit (). Because the connection unit () has a guide () which enables adjustment of the relative positions of the individual shield components () to each other and which is used for fastening in the adjusted position. A sliding heat shield concept arises in which, with a heat shield having several shield components, adaptation is possible on site to the geometrical conditions of engines and their add-on parts including exhaust systems. Effective sound damping and heat insulation can be produced in a wide area with only one shielding component and its shield components.
