| 20100263194 | ATTACHMENT FOR CERAMIC MATRIX COMPOSITE COMPONENT - A bushing ( | 10-21-2010 |
| 20120042502 | SEAT COVER ASSEMBLY - An exemplary embodiment relates to an expansion bolt component that includes a bolt, an elastic component, and a nut. The bolt includes a necking part at an upper end thereof. The elastic component includes sides parts that include a plurality of ribs symmetrically arranged. Each rib includes a lower part and an upper part, each lower part being connected to a lower part of an associated adjacent rib. The nut is configured to be threaded onto a lower end of the bolt and to move into a lower end of the elastic component due to rotation of the bolt. The lower part of each rib is configured to expand in a radial direction when the nut moves into the elastic component. The upper part of each rib is configured to move simultaneously toward the upper part of its associated adjacent rib, such that the upper parts of the plurality of ribs clamp the necking part of the bolt. | 02-23-2012 |
| 20120311846 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ATTACHING COMPONENTS HAVING DISSIMILAR RATES OF THERMAL EXPANSION - An example mounting assembly includes a fastener receivable within an aperture of a component. A felt metal gasket separates the fastener from the component. | 12-13-2012 |
| 20150343866 | Securing Device for Receiver Hitches - A hitch pin assembly for securing a shank member to a hitch receiver tube to minimize relative motion between the shank member and receiver tube, comprising an elongated pin having a threaded portion, a threaded nut, an elastomer piece, and a shank member which are mated for tightened engagement compressing the elastomer piece so as to firmly engage the receiver tube. The shank member may include a slot for a corresponding threaded nut and elastomer piece so when the pin is tightened, the nut compresses the elastomer against the interior wall of the shank surface and upwardly, thereby restraining movement of the threaded nut and dampening movement of the shank inside the hitch receiver tube. | 12-03-2015 |
| 20160096244 | Hybrid Fastener and Method of Making the Same - A hybrid fastener comprises a composite body having a tip, and a metal sleeve surrounding and locked to the tip. | 04-07-2016 |
| 20160107298 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR THE INSTALLATION OF A THERMOFORMABLE FASTENER ASSEMBLY AT A PREDETERMINED PRELOAD TORQUE VALUE - An apparatus and its method of use enables a thermoplastically deformable fastener assembly to be deformed to hold an installation preload torque after the fastener has been torqued to a predetermined value. | 04-21-2016 |
