A non-destructive fastener clip is presented. The non-destructive fastener clip is a suitable aftermarket replacement for original equipment manufacturer (OEM) trim clip. These OEM trim clips often break upon disassembly from removing an automotive trim panel from an automotive fixture. The non-destructive fastener clip assembly contains an anchor fastener, and a fastener clip. The anchor fastener comprises an anchoring element and a receiving element. The fastener clip comprises an upper fastener portion, a lower fastener portion, at least one connecting element, and at least one latching element. The anchoring element is connected terminally adjacent to the receiving element. The at least one connecting element is distributed about the lower fastener portion. The at least one latching element is distributed about the upper fastener portion. Each of the at least one connecting element is connected adjacent to the receiving element.

A device, system, and method for mounting solar PV panels to rails. The device can include a bottom clamp that secures the solar PV panel to the rail by creating tension between the return flange of the solar panel frame and the rail. The bottom clamp can be structured to snap onto the rail sides. Mid-clamp versions of the bottom clamp can be so structured that the solar PV panel and bottom clamps can be removed by prying the opposing sides of the bottom clamp from above the solar PV panels.

Mounting systems for solar panel assemblies and related methods are generally describes. In some embodiments, a clamp adapter may be used to mount a conventional panel support structure of a solar panel assembly to a conventional bracket of a base assembly without the use of bolts in at least some embodiments. The clamp adapter may include a rail slot for receiving the structure, a lower flange for receiving a lower surface of a mounting lip of the bracket, and a lateral flange for receiving an upper surface of the mounting lip. The lower flange may be angled to accommodate a variety of mounting lip angles. In some embodiments, the mounting system may also include a connector configured to mechanically connect the bracket and structure.

An insert for mounting multiple cables in a cable hanger includes: a gripping portion configured to engage multiple cables; and a wrapping portion attached to the gripping portion and configured to wrap around the gripping portion as it receives cables.

A cooking hob retention system includes a support element having a major surface and a pocket disposed therealong and defining a strip having a first opening and a second opening on vertically opposite sides thereof. The system also includes a fastening element including an engagement end and a free end resiliently compressible toward the engagement end about a central fold disposed therebetween. The engagement end is coupled with the support element by a deformable portion opposite the central fold received within the first opening and a protruding element extending toward the deformable portion and received within the second opening. The free end includes a body defining an acute angle with respect to the engagement end. A tab extends from the body generally parallel to the engagement end, and a first countering element extends from the body beyond the tab to an end thereof.

The invention relates to a device for holding a head of a pin of a component, said device having a receiving space which defines an opening via which the head of the pin can be inserted; a spring element disposed in the receiving space; and a path limiter which is disposed in the receiving space. The spring element has a receptacle for the head of the pin of the component, and the straight line which connects the geometric center point of the opening to the geometric center point of the receptacle forms a reference line. A curved or bent receiving section of a spring arm of the spring element is provided as part of the receptacle. The receiving section has at least one distance point which is arranged furthest from the reference line than other points along the extension of the curved or bent receiving section.

A U-shaped band to attach or snap a conduit or pipe to a slotted structural member. The U-shaped band includes a bottom portion, a first side having a first arm connected to the bottom portion; a second side having a second arm connected to the bottom portion thereby forming a U-shaped structure with the first and second sides. The at least one arm snaps into a slot of the slotted structural member when in an engaged position. The slotted structural member may be a strut or a receiver. The receiver has arms to engage and snap into curled ends or lips on sides of the strut and thus may adapt the band to the strut. Alternatively, the band may snap into suitably sized slots on the slotted structural member.

A clip for removably securing a device to straps, includes: a main part comprising a first main part, a second main part, and an intermediate part, the main part configured to couple to the device; a first hook part at a first end of the main part, the first hook part comprising a first front facing towards a first surface of the main part; and a second hook part at a second end of the main part, the second hook part comprising a second front facing towards a second surface of the main part; wherein the first front overlaps with less than or equal to 75% of a length of the main part, wherein the second front overlaps with less than or equal to 25% of the length of the main part; and wherein the first main part and the second main part are offset relative to each other.

A splice having a main body and one or more protrusions extending from the main body. The one or more protrusions can be operable to interfere with a rail when the main body is installed into an opening of the rail. The one or more protrusions may be operable to cut into a coating of the rail and form an electrical connection between the rail and the main body.

A pedal assembly comprises a pedal arm; a pedal plate provided on a second end of an elongated lever structure of the pedal arm; a vehicle mounting bracket; and a retainer. The retainer is installed on the pedal arm and is configured to operatively connect the pedal arm and an end portion of an operating member so as to transmit the movement of the pedal arm between a first and a second arm position to a functional system. The retainer is in an open position for insertion of the end portion of the operating member therein. The retainer is configured to move or to be movable from the open position to a closed position in which the retainer retains the end portion of the operating member received therein. The retainer is movable from the open position to the closed position by insertion of the operating member therein.
