| 20130313391 | SECURING PLATE AND AIRCRAFT STRUCTURE - A securing plate for clamping an end of a stringer to a surface of an aircraft structure, wherein the plate is metallic and comprises a first recess. The first recess is formed partially through the thickness of the plate. The first recess is configured so that the thickness of the plate incrementally reduces towards an end of the plate by a plurality of plate steps. Also, an aircraft structure comprising a skin having an inner surface, and a stringer extending in a longitudinal direction of the aircraft structure. The stringer comprises a stringer loot bonded to the skin inner surface and a web extending from the stringer foot and away from the skin inner surface. The aircraft structure further comprises a metallic securing plate overlying a portion of the stringer foot at an end of the stringer and which is attached to the skin. | 11-28-2013 |
| 20140346299 | Apparatus for Mounting Accessory Equipment to Tow Hooks - A device for adjustably and removably mounting accessory equipment to tow hooks of a vehicle without alteration to the bumper or surrounding fascia components. The device includes two angle brackets a mounting flange and a clamping plate. Each bracket has holes that align with the other bracket and with the mounting flange which attaches to accessory equipment. The assembly of the brackets and clamping plate surround the tow hook, which the mounting flange attaches to the accessory equipment. One possible piece of accessory equipment is a bumper guard, which can provide protection from debris damaging the vehicle oil cooler. Detachable brush bars provide further protection from brush harming the sides of the moving vehicle. | 11-27-2014 |

| 20120312945 | CAMMING CLAMP FOR ROOF SEAM - A clamp described herein can secure a solar cell array to a seam of a standing seam metal roof. The clamp has a cam that is rotated by the tightening of a bolt to cause the cam to engage the seam. The clamp also has a receiver for receiving the seam and the rotated cam. By installing the clamp on the seam, the solar cell array can be secured to the standing seam metal roof without drilling into the roof. Because no screws are required to be drilled into the rooftop, the damage to the rooftop is substantially reduced. Also, by reversing the process described above, the clamp can be uninstalled in a similar fashion. | 12-13-2012 |

| 20150354204 | A Fastening Member for Fastening Elongated Terrace Elements and an Arrangement Comprising the Same - A fastening member, comprising a first extension having a thickness in a first direction, extending in a second direction, and having a length in a third direction; a second extension connected to the first extension and extending in a direction that is reverse to the second direction; and a hole penetrating the fastening member. The fastening member comprises at least one projection, wherein the projection protrudes from the first extension to the first direction or to a direction that is reverse to the first direction. A method for fastening two elements to a support, the method comprising inserting the first extension of the fastening member to a groove of an element; arranging a second element such that another extension of the fastening member becomes arranged into a groove of the second element; and fixing the fastening member to a support using a fixing means such as a screw. | 12-10-2015 |

| 20080290233 | CLAMPING SYSTEM - A clamp for clamping boards to a suitable support in which one part of the clamp engages a recess in one board and another part of the clamp engages part of the surface of the support to retain the board in a fixed relationship with the support. The clamp includes a fastening element which has a spacer portion for use in spacing two adjacent boards apart from each other when the boards are being clamped to the support to provide a uniform spacing of the boards. The advantage of the clamp is that it can be used to assemble a relocatable structure, such as an outdoor decking with evenly spaced boards and then the clamp can be released to allow disassembly of the structure which can then be reassembled at a different location using the same clamps. | 11-27-2008 |
