A securing arrangement for securing at least one component to an appliance is provided. The at least one component is arranged on a receiving region of the appliance. The securing arrangement comprises a securing element configured for locking connection of the at least one component to the appliance. The securing element comprises a plate and has weakened regions and deformation zones between at least one peripheral, unweakened receiving region and at least one pressure and centering region resting on a surface of the component. The securing arrangement further comprises a plurality of spacers extending from the receiving region of the appliance to below the height of the surface of the at least one component. The at least one unweakened receiving region of the securing element is configured to be braced against the spacers.

Disclosed herein is an apparatus for mounting hardware to a surface of a structure. The apparatus includes a main body with an upper surface, a lower surface, and an outer edge. The apparatus also includes a distal pad with an upper and a lower planar surface, the distal pad being attached to the main body by at least two torsional joints. The apparatus also includes an attachment device with a contact surface, the attachment device is mounted to at least one of the planar surfaces. The contact surface is for engagement with the surface of the structure. The at least two torsional joints and distal pad may be manually rotated to achieve maximal surficial contact between the surface of the structure and the contact surface of the attachment device.

An exterior decoration device includes: a garnish frame including an upper surface and a reaction force hook protruding inclinedly from a rim portion of the garnish frame and configured to be elastically deformed; a level difference adjustment bolt configured to form a dispersion adjustment structure in a state of being coupled to the garnish frame, protruding in a direction opposite to the garnish exposure member, and configured to adjust both a surface level difference of the garnish exposure member and a hook level difference of the reaction force hook by inducing a rotation of the dispersion adjustment structure and changing a protrusion length from the garnish frame; and a fastening tool configured to define an excessive torque cut-off structure together with the level difference adjustment bolt.

A vehicle bracket assembly includes first and second platforms each including a body and connectors that extend from each of the bodies. A central base is disposed between the first and second platforms and are coupled to the first and second platforms via the connectors. First and second connecting legs are coupled to the body of each of the first and second platforms, respectively. A first attachment base is coupled to the first platform via the first connecting legs. A second attachment base includes a locating tab. The second attachment base is coupled to the second platform via the second connecting legs.

A lighting device comprises a base (7), a light aggregate (3), and a lens member (1) covering the light aggregate (3). The base (7) and the lens member (1) comprise mounting holes (27, 25), the mounting holes (25) of the lens member (1) being positioned along the periphery (1A) of the lens member (1).
