CAST-IN PLACE ANCHOR WITH LOCKABLE JAW ASSEMBLY
An anchor assembly is disclosed for suspending objects to a concrete structure. The assembly includes an anchor housing having a jaw assembly therein and a opening for receiving an anchor member such as a threaded rod. The jaw assembly includes threaded rods having a threaded opening, a wood form anchor assembly and a metal decking anchor assembly. The wood form and the metal decking anchor assemblies may accommodate the anchor housing and the anchor housing is used in one of the wood form anchor assembly and the metal decking anchor assembly. The metal decking anchor assembly includes a nose-piece and the anchor housing is selectively connectable to the nose-piece via a locking connection such as a bayonet connection.

Profile bar, profile assembly and method for producing a profile assembly
A profile bar (10, 10a) formed as an extruded part and consisting of a light metal alloy, in particular an aluminum alloy, with a rectangular in particular square, cross-section, wherein a longitudinal groove pair (20, 20a), comprising two longitudinal grooves arranged parallel to one another and at a distance from one another, is provided in each case on at least one lateral surface, preferably on all four lateral surfaces, and with at least two, preferably four, longitudinal channels which extend parallel to the longitudinal grooves and which form in each case an opening (40) for fastening in each case a pen (34) on each of the two end faces (36) of the profile bar (10, 10a), wherein each longitudinal channel is arranged on an imaginary intersection line of planes extending at a right angle to one another and arranged perpendicularly to in each case a lateral surface, wherein at least one of the planes is a longitudinal center plane of a longitudinal groove of a longitudinal groove pair (20).
Module attachment apparatus and method
Exemplary systems and methods described herein can be used to secure a rail to a module or the rail to a support using a nut that can be inserted at a desired point of mounting. Another exemplary system describes a flashing to be inserted under a roof shingle, wherein the flashing is secured to a support for a rail or module. Yet another exemplary system describes a clamp that secures a rail or module and is adjustable along the length of a post. Spacers can be added to the post to extend the adjustment range of the clamp.
MOUNTING STRUCTURE OF RESIN MEMBER
In a mounting structure of a resin member, a collar has an outside diameter smaller than the diameter of a collar insertion hole of a resin-made fixation portion, and the collar defines a collar hole therein. A washer member defines a washer hole therein. The washer member has an outside diameter greater than the diameter of the collar insertion hole and an inside diameter smaller than the outside diameter of the collar. A holding portion throughhole of a metal-made holding portion, the collar hole, and the washer hole form a bolt insertion hole through which a bolt shaft is inserted in a state in which the collar is inserted in the collar insertion hole, the metal-made holding portion is laid on or over one surface of the resin-made fixation portion, and the washer member is laid on or over the other surface of the resin-made fixation portion.
Trim attachment assembly for mounting solar panel equipment
A channel having a base portion, an open central region, and an integral pair of sidewalls. The integral pair of sidewalls having an upper portion of each sidewall that includes an inward-facing downturned internal flange and an outward-facing upturned external flange.
QUICK ADJUST SLIDE KNOB WITH SAFETY LOCK
The presently disclosed quick adjust slide knob addresses the ‘Backing-Off’ problem present with various conventional nuts. The quick adjust slide knobs can be quickly positioned along a threaded rod by applying pressure to an exposed surface of a partially threaded nut. When the knob is placed against a work surface and the user releases pressure from the partially threaded nut, the thread pattern on the partially threaded nut meshes with the matching thread pattern on the threaded rod. The device can then be twisted, which will translate the device along the threaded rod, to apply a larger load to the work surface. The threaded rod may include one or more key-ways shaped to allow a locking tab housed within the knob to stop the device from freely disengaging the threaded rod to protect a user from potential injury caused by the fastener unexpectedly backing off and disengaging.
NUT FASTENER ASSEMBLY
A nut fastener assembly includes a nut assembly and a fastening clip. Opposite sides of the bottom of the nut assembly are provided with a pair of protrusions. The fastening clip includes a pair of lugs arranged on opposite ends of the fastening clip and extending towards the nut assembly, and a pair of receiving channels configured to respectively penetrate the pair of lugs. At least one of the pair of lugs is an adjustable lug including a blocking part and an elastic part. The distal end of the elastic part is movable relative to the distal end of the blocking part. The corresponding protrusion in the pair of protrusions can enter the corresponding receiving channel through a space between the distal end of the blocking part and the distal end of the elastic part to be held in the receiving channel.
Connector
A connector for attachment of two frame elements in a framing system has a connector body of similar rectangular section to the frame elements. A flat inner engagement face of the connector body engages with a flat end face of a first frame element, and essentially forms an extension of the first frame element. An outer engagement face of the connector body is substantially parallel to the inner engagement face and in use abuts against a flat side wall of a second frame element. The outer engagement face has two outwardly projecting lips along opposite side edges of the connector body at the outer face. Each lip has a curved inner face for engagement with opposed radiused edges at opposite sides of the flat side wall face of the second frame element. A flat outer face of the lip forms an extension of a side wall of the connector body and provides a smooth transition between adjacent side walls of the two frame elements. Thus, advantageously, there is no groove forming a dirt trap between the two frame elements when they are interconnected.
RETAINER NUT LOCKING APPARATUS AND METHODS
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to retainer nut locking apparatus and methods for fluid ends, and associated components thereof. In one implementation, a lock assembly for retainer nuts on fluid ends includes a frame. The frame includes one or more first openings formed therethrough. The lock assembly also includes one or more inserts. Each insert of the one or more inserts is disposed in a first opening of the one or more first openings formed in the frame. The lock assembly also includes one or more insert retainers each having a locking tab protruding into one of one or more slots of each insert to limit rotation of the insert about a longitudinal axis of the insert. The one or more insert retainers are fastened to the frame.
