The present invention provides a panel comprising a protective plate which is adapted to be fitted to a vehicle body panel to cover the vehicle body panel. The protective plate includes a plurality of fasteners to releasably secure the protective plate to the vehicle body panel. Each fastener comprises a first fastening portion which is secured to the protective plate, and a second fastening portion which is secured to the surface of the vehicle's body panel. Upon securing the protective plate in place, the first fastening portion is biased away from the second fastening portion to retain the fastener in a locked position. The protective plate is adapted to remain fixed to the vehicle body panel when the vehicle is driven in either an on-road or off-road environment.

An anchor for lightning protection systems includes a base and pad that extend over a sufficient area and a sufficient bearing length to hold in shear and in tension against the weight, shear force, and moment of cables, points, and other components of a lightning protection systems. A universal point mount may be forged to optimize cross sectional area and contact surface area throughout the mounting system. Drilled and tapped to receive a point oriented arbitrarily, the head mounts easily on a horizontal or vertical mounting surface. Apertures and fasteners provide arbitrary positioning of a point at any necessary orientation.

A securing system includes a fastener and a tape. The fastener includes a main body portion having a first end and a second end, a curved portion extending from the first end, first and second legs extending from the second end, and a roller extending between the first and second legs. The tape may extend around the roller and may be self-adhering.

A device having a top half and a bottom half divided by a hinge mechanism is provided. The top half may contain a graphic image and be used as a protective cover or kickstand, and the bottom half contains a reusable elastomeric adhesive. The adhesive can be on both sides of the bottom half. The device can be used to mount any flat, non-porous or semi-porous object to another flat, non-porous or semi-porous surface or object. The shape and size of the device does not affect its functionality and can therefore be modified as needed.

Disclosed are mounting devices that allow consumers to quickly and easily determine whether a given mounting device can be used to hang or otherwise support a desired object. The mounting device includes an indicator that is exposed to alert the consumer if the weight of the object exceeds the maximum weight recommendation of the mounting device. If the indicator remains hidden, the mounting device is considered appropriate for the given object.

An adhesive hook includes a base which has a bottom for fixing, an outer surface, and a hook provided at the outer surface. The bottom of the base is fixed on an external surface by means of an adhesive, and the adhesive is a curable adhesive. The structure of the adhesive hook is simple, and the curing speed of the curable adhesive is fast. After the curing process, the load bearing of the hook is larger than 1 Kg/cm2. Further, the adhesive hook has high cohesion strength after the adhesive is cured, and no remain is pasted on the external surface or the base after the hook is removed. The base can be recoated with new adhesive to reuse, which reduces cost and achieves recycling.

An apparatus for installing a window covering is disclosed. A rotational cam member is provided for extending a first piston on one side of a headrail and compressing a second piston on the opposite side of the headrail between a window casing. A lever arm is provided for rotating the rotational cam. Easy installation of a window covering headrail may be achieved as one arm is used to hold the headrail while the other hand is able to actuated the lever arm. Mounting brackets are provided for easy window covering removal after installation.

The present invention relates to a refrigerator (1) comprising a body (2) wherein foods and beverages are placed, at least one drawer (3) that is disposed into the body (2) wherein fruits and vegetables are placed, a crisper (5) that is disposed inside the body (2) so as to be almost parallel to the base and that has a cover plate (4) remaining above the drawer (3) when the drawer (3) is placed into the body (2), and a flexible element (6) that is disposed on the crisper (5) and that provides airproofing between the interior of the crisper (5) and the exterior of the crisper (5).

A hybrid adhesion system includes an adhesion head including at least one suction cup and a handle and a vacuum generator mechanically coupled to the adhesion head. The vacuum generator includes at least one pneumatic cylinder having an internal volume in fluid communication with the at least one suction cup and a piston having a piston rod mechanically coupled to a manual actuator.

A wall mounting apparatus including a first prism and a second prism. The first prism includes a first surface and a second surface, the first surface being parallel to the second surface. The first surface further includes a first aperture extending through the first surface and the second surface. The shape of the first aperture can include a semicircular arch. The second prism comprising a third surface and a fourth surface, the third surface being parallel the fourth surface. The fourth surface of the second prism may mount to the first surface of the first prism. The second prism may include a second aperture extending through the third surface and the fourth surface. The second aperture may include an elongated shape configured to form a locking interface.
