Latch for aircraft panel
A latch (12) intended for assembling a removable panel (18) to a structure (14), notably that of an aircraft, includes a bracket (30) fixed to the panel; a keeper (32) and a push button (34) hinged to the bracket; a torsion spring (40) comprising two arms respectively in abutment on the keeper and the push button. The latch is movable between a closed configuration, in which the keeper is in contact with the push button, and an open configuration, in which the keeper is spaced apart from the push button. The latch further includes a roller (42) rotatably supported on an arm (86) of the spring; and the keeper includes a profile (58) on which the roller moves when the latch is moved between the closed and open configurations.
Connection bolt for tool-free butt-joining of two furniture panels
A connection bolt for connecting two parts, in particular furniture panels, includes a cylindrical bolt shaft for anchoring in a bore of the one part and a bolt head for anchoring in a bore of the other part. The bolt head has a foot portion, which adjoins the bolt shaft, and a hook-shaped head portion with a radially outwardly projecting, blade-shaped projection. The foot portion is arranged with respect to the bolt shaft eccentrically offset in the radial direction in which the projection projects radially outwards.
Floorboards with decorative grooves
Floorboards which have a core and a surface layer and are provided with decorative joint edges which are formed by removing the surface layer. A method for making a floorboard, or a floor element that is to be divided into at least two floorboards, the method including making a core from a sheet shaped material, from which a part of a locking system for vertical locking of the floorboards is to be formed, impregnating and/or staining the core surface with a substance at least in portions which in the completed floorboard will constitute a joint edge of the completed floorboard, and arranging an surface layer on the core surface.
Hidden fastener unit and related method of use
A fastener unit and related method for securing a board to a support is provided. The fastener unit includes a spacer block, a grip element extending from the spacer block and configured to fit in and engage a groove of the board, and one or more board engagement elements extending from a portion of the spacer block. The board engagement elements can clamp the board, between an upper and/or lower surface of the board and a groove of the board, thereby securing the spacer block in a position adjacent the groove to establish a gap between the board and another board. Related methods of use also are provided.
Joint structure and method for assembling a joint structure
A joint structure installed in the physical structure is provided. The joint structure includes a first latching member and a second latching member. The first latching member includes a first main body, a head portion extending from the first main body and a first convex portion extending from the first main body. The second latching member includes a second main body, a second convex portion extending from the second main body and a third convex portion extending from the second main body. When the first latching member and the second latching member are in an assembling status, the first convex portion slides between the second convex portion and the third convex portion.
SOLAR PANEL MOUNTING SYSTEM, METHOD AND APPARATUS
In various embodiments, a mounting system may comprise a downslope rail, an upslope rail, a first clamp and a second clamp. The downslope rail may have a first profile and comprising a downslope face and an upslope shelf. The upslope rail may have a second profile and comprising a downslope shelf and an upslope face. The first clamp may be configured to engage the downslope face and accept the installation of a first end of a solar panel. The second clamp may be configured to engage the upslope face and retain a second end of the solar panel against a downslope shelf
HIDDEN FASTENER UNIT AND RELATED METHOD OF USE
A fastener unit and related method for securing a board to a support is provided. The fastener unit includes a spacer block, a grip element extending from the spacer block and configured to fit in and engage a groove of the board, and one or more board engagement elements extending from a portion of the spacer block. The board engagement elements can clamp the board, between an upper and/or lower surface of the board and a groove of the board, thereby securing the spacer block in a position adjacent the groove to establish a gap between the board and another board. Related methods of use also are provided.
Device replacement in wearable article manufacturing equipment
A panel attachment structure for a wearable article manufacturing equipment includes: lower and upper panels vertically arranged while separated up-and-down; a first processing section and a first driving section respectively attached to a front face and a back face of the lower panel; a second processing section and a second driving section respectively attached to a front face and a back face of the upper panel; a base horizontally arranged under the lower panel; and a pair of pillars raised from the base, wherein, in the structure, the lower and upper panels are removably fixed to the pillars while being supported by the respective lower and upper parts of the pillars, and each pillar has a support section, provided between the upper and lower panels and supporting the load of the upper panel.
Mechanical locking of floor panels with a flexible tongue
Floor panels which are provided with a mechanical locking system including an extruded flexible tongue in a sidewardly open groove which during a vertical folding motion is bent horizontally. A tongue adapted for being received in a sidewardly open groove of a floor panel, wherein the tongue, which is an elongated extruded section, when received in the groove is bendable in a plane substantially parallel with a front face of the floor panel, such that the tongue is at least partially resiliently displaceable inside said sidewardly open groove in said plane during locking of the floor panel with another floor panel and wherein a vertical protrusion, serving as a friction connection between the tongue and the groove, is arranged at an upper or lower part of the tongue, wherein a total width of tongue varies in a longitudinal direction of the tongue.
JOINT STRUCTURE AND METHOD FOR ASSEMBLING A JOINT STRUCTURE
A joint structure installed in the physical structure is provided. The joint structure includes a first latching member and a second latching member. The first latching member includes a first main body, a head portion extending from the first main body and a first convex portion extending from the first main body. The second latching member includes a second main body, a second convex portion extending from the second main body and a third convex portion extending from the second main body. When the first latching member and the second latching member are in an assembling status, the first convex portion slides between the second convex portion and the third convex portion.
