A bolt fastener includes a plurality of fixing structures that are arranged radially around a receiving space for a bolt and are axially pivotable, wherein the fixing structures have, in the direction of an axial receiving space for a fastening bolt, engagement faces for engagement with a bolt and have, at diametrically opposite ends, bearing faces with which the fixing structures are supported counter to an outward movement, wherein bearing structures for the bearing faces are also provided, which cooperate in a supporting manner with the bearing faces, wherein the bearing face and bearing structure are dimensioned such that they disengage when the fixing structures are pivoted counter to the insertion direction of the bolt, wherein the radial spacing between the bearing structures and a bolt mounted in the receiving space is smaller than the entire extent of the fixing structures.

A method to prevent corrosion of a susceptible article of a two-article system, in which first and second articles of the two-article system have surfaces facing one another and in which the two articles have different anodic indices includes applying a coating material to the surface of the first article and curing the coating material on the surface of the first article. The method further includes contacting and securing the surface of the first article with the surface of the second article. The two articles exhibit substantially no corrosion following exposure to a corrosive environment under standard GMW17026 for a 15 year simulated test.

A display apparatus fixed to a wall mount includes a display, a mounting member assembled to a rear cover of the display to fix the display to the wall mount, a set screw coupled to the mounting member and including a rotation preventer provided to limit a length thereof fastened to the mounting member, and a cap nut fastened to the set screw to fix the display apparatus to the wall mount, and having a length thereof, which is fastened to the set screw, being adjusted according to a thickness of the rear cover.

A bolt includes a head portion on which a recess is formed. The recess has a bottom surface and a sidewall extending from a periphery of the bottom surface. The sidewall has a lower end defined by the bottom surface and includes an increased diameter portion and a reduced diameter portion. The increased diameter portion has an inner diameter larger than an inner diameter of the lower end of the side wall. The reduced diameter portion has an inner diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the increased diameter portion. The reduced diameter portion is located opposite to the bottom surface across the increased diameter portion.

Expandable collet bodies with sectional finger-based anti-rotation features are disclosed. The collet body comprises not only a plurality of gripping finger as a first part of a two-part anti-rotation means (ARM), but also a first part of a two part translation arresting means (TAM), which may or may not be sectional in nature. The TAM prevents over translation of a collet body within the work piece(s), and cooperates with a second part of the TAM associated with a work piece or an auxiliary structure. In this manner, a collet body inserted into a work piece or auxiliary structure will not accidentally be pushed beyond the blind side of the work piece(s) during insertion or initial clamp-up.

A device is configured to be mounted to a planar mounting panel, including, for example, a wall or ceiling of a home or other building. The device includes a housing, a fastener, a dogleg tab and a friction inducing member. The housing is configured to be received in an aperture in the mounting panel and includes a housing aperture. The fastener is disposed in the housing aperture. The dogleg tab is operatively coupled to one end of the fastener. The dogleg tab is configured to be disposed in a retracted position and to be disposed in an engagement position, in which engagement position the dogleg tab is disposed to engage an inside surface of the mounting panel. The friction inducing member is fixedly attached to the housing adjacent the housing aperture and friction-fit to the fastener.

Disclosed is a rack fastener to engage and retain a first member and hold a second member to the first member. The fastener has two coextensive studs, each having base portions, to install from a back surface of the first member each into separate apertures thereof, such that the studs extend through the separate apertures from a front surface of the first member. A connecting portion connects the two base portions. There is also, a clipping portion extending, directly or indirectly, from one of the base portions, the clipping portion having at least one engagement face to engage a region of another aperture of the first member so that the fastener is substantially prevented from being separated from the first member. The two studs can pass through respective apertures of the second member, and thereafter fasteners can engage each stud to secure the second member to the first member.
