FASTENING ARRANGEMENT WITH DAMPING EFFECT AND COMPONENT CONNECTION TO THE FASTENING ARRANGEMENT

A fastening arrangement with damping effect, consisting of two structurally identical fastening units each having a central first through opening. Each fastening unit comprises a mounting element and a damping element. The mounting element is disc-shaped with a central second through opening and an identical detent structure extends from a first side of each mounting element. The damping element is disc-shaped with a central third through opening and is arranged at last partially in the central second through opening of the mounting element. Due to this construction the two fastening units can be fastened to one another by means of the mutually facing first sides having the identical detent structure of the respective mounting elements with first component arranged between them.

Torque Absorbing Surface
20220145924 · 2022-05-12 ·

A plurality of raised surfaces on a platform absorb torque of a fastener contacting the surface while rotating relatively to the platform. Significant disproportionate increase in torque compared with the associated increase in bolt stress is observed by increased felt torque when tightening the fastener. Raised surfaces are used on lugs of a mechanical pipe coupling to increase the fastener's resistance to damage when powered tools are used to apply torque to the fastener.

DAMPING ARRANGEMENT, COMPONENT WITH DAMPING ARRANGEMENT AS WELL AS CORRESPONDING COMPONENT CONNECTION, A MANUFACTURING METHOD AND A CONNECTING METHOD
20220136541 · 2022-05-05 ·

A damping arrangement which is fastenable in an opening of a first component and by which a dampened connection of the first component with a second component is realizable, including, two identically constructed damping elements. Each damping element includes: a head portion with a first outer diameter, a shaft portion with a second outer diameter that is smaller than the first outer diameter and extends from a bottom side of the head portion, as well as a central first thru-opening, and only one sleeve with a central second thru-opening being arranged at least partly in the central first thru-opening of each damping element by means of a frictional and/or material connection. By means of the only one sleeve, the two identically constructed damping elements with bottom sides, facing each other, of the head portion with the first component arranged in between are fastenable to one another.
