OPTIMIZED THREAD PROFILE FOR JOINING COMPOSITE MATERIALS
20220065285 · 2022-03-03 · ·

An optimized thread profile (140) for joining composite materials is presented. This thread profile (140) maintains a certain material strength when used as part of a composite threaded joint (101). The thread profile (140) comprises a repeating pattern of four components: a crest region (150), a first flank (162), a root region (170) and a second flank (164). The thread profile (140) is symmetrical, that is, the dimensions of the four components do not change throughout the length of the thread profile. The crest (152) has a flat profile and the root (172) has a rounded profile. When a shaft (120) is affixed to a joining shaft (110) using this optimized thread profile (140), the flat profiles of the crest (152) of the shaft (120) and corresponding rounded profiles of the root (172) of the joining shaft (110) create a gap to accommodate a substance such as an adhesive or a lubricant. Similarly, the flat profiles of the crest (152) of the joining shaft (110) and corresponding rounded profiles of the root (172) of the shaft (120) create a gap to accommodate a substance.

ANTI-TAMPERING DEVICE THAT ENVELOPES THE HEAD OF A FASTENER
20220074444 · 2022-03-10 ·

An anti-tampering device includes a housing with a bolt channel and a lock channel. The lock channel is aligned with, intersects and is perpendicular to the bolt channel. A head of a bolt and a portion of a shank of a bolt is received in the bolt channel. A lock received in the lock channel extends into the bolt channel, in proximity to the shank of the bolt, when the lock is in a locked position. The portion of the lock extending into the bolt channel prevents removal of the head of the bolt from the bolt channel.
