A fastener system shifting shear stresses away from a collet body and provides clamping action to targeted structures. The fastener system includes feet in the collet body that mate with openings in a sleeve at least partially surrounding the collet body. The sleeve or the collet body includes interior threads that engage with a stud that is configured to extend through the collet body and bend the feet such that they project outward from the sleeve openings in an engaged configuration.

A coupling structure for coupling a first member and a second member includes a rod-shaped part configured to be received across a first hole formed in the first member and a second hole formed in the second member. The rod-shaped part has a first insertion portion configured to be inserted into the first hole of the first member, and a second insertion portion configured to be inserted into the second hole of the second member. The coupling structure further includes a fixing configuration, the fixing configuration being configured to fix the first insertion portion and the first member by applying an external force to the first insertion portion, and the fixing configuration being configured to fix the second insertion portion and the second member by applying an external force to the second insertion portion.

A display support system is provide and includes a node connector and a support connector secured to the node connector. The node connector includes a plurality of intersecting planar surfaces that form the outer surface thereof. The support connector is releasably securable to the node connector along one of the plurality of intersecting planar surfaces.

A snap-together fastening device is provided for mounting by insertion into an opening of a sandwich component, in particular a CFRP sandwich component consisting of two snap-together elements. Fixing arms are arranged on a holding element which can be actuated from a mounting position into a fixing position by an actuating element. The arms mechanically penetrate the foam of the sandwich component such that a frictional connection with the sandwich component is produced.

The present invention relates to a fixing device and finds particular, although not exclusive, utility in providing an anchoring point in plasterboard cavity walls or ceilings for the purpose of affixing other items thereto, in which the fixing device may be used in plasterboard walls of varying thickness without risk of over-insertion and loss of the fixing device in the cavity behind the plasterboard.

In one aspect, a support bracket is disclosed that includes a mounting bracket, a prong mount, and an accessory. The mounting bracket has a body to support the accessory. The prong mount has a prong and a connector. The prong is to extend through a wall to engage a backside of the wall to secure the prong mount to the wall. The connector is securable to the mounting bracket to couple the prong mount to the mounting bracket. The accessory has an attachment base configured to receive at least a portion of the body of the mounting bracket to mount the accessory to the mounting bracket.
