A method includes: mounting a rail on a wall; mounting a fixture on the rail by interlocking a channel of the fixture to the rail; removing the fixture from the rail; and mounting a replacement fixture on the rail by interlocking a channel of the replacement fixture to the rail. An apparatus has: a rail with a wall contacting base side, an exterior side, and a beam formed on the exterior side; a fixture with a base side, an exterior side, and a channel formed on the base side; and in which the channel forms a female profile that reversibly interlocks via a snap fit to a male profile formed by the beam to reversibly mount the fixture on the rail, with respective longitudinal axes of the beam and the channel extending in respective axial directions along the rail. The fixture and rail may retain a panel over the substrate.

An assembly of two parts, one of the parts being made of composite material with fiber reinforcement obtained from a fiber preform made by three-dimensional weaving and densified with a matrix, the assembly including a mechanical anchor element secured to one of the parts and inserted inside the other part.

The description relates to devices that can include a hollow arm that has an open side and a cover engaging region around the open side. The cover engaging region defines a first width at the open side, a second width farther from the open side, and a third width that is farther from the open side than the first width and the second width. The device can also include an arm cover that includes an arm engaging region. The arm engaging region can define a fourth width at the open side, a fifth width farther from the open side, and a sixth width that is farther from the open side than the fourth width and the fifth width. The sixth width can be greater than the fifth width and the second width and less than the first width and the fourth width.

A door handle apparatus for a vehicle includes an outside handle configured by a first handle member and a second handle member which are integrally fixed to each other via a fixing mechanism configured by a plurality of engagement tabs, a pedestal portion and a stopper member, the engagement tabs being provided at one of the first handle member and the second handle member, and arranged to be separated from each other by a space portion which is predetermined and to face each other, the pedestal portion being provided at the other of the first handle member and the second handle member, and including an engagement hole into which the engagement tabs are insertable, and the stopper member being inserted in the space portion between the plurality of engagement tabs which is in a state of being inserted in the engagement hole of the pedestal portion.

Support systems for electronic devices such as display screens are described and have support connector portions configured to connect to support devices such as adjustable mount supports. The support devices have magnetic elements, and the display devices have magnetic sensors configured to detect the magnetic fields emitted from the support devices. A relationship between the magnetic fields detected and target magnetic field values is determined to provide an output signal or indicator of the propriety of the support device used or the propriety of its connection to the display device.

A beverage holder with an insulating sleeve holds a beverage container and a magnetic mount to magnetically secure the insulating sleeve with the beverage container therein to a ferromagnetic support structure. The magnetic mount comprises an exterior housing located outside the insulating sleeve and on a lateral wall of the insulating sleeve. A magnet is carried by the exterior housing and located outside of the insulating sleeve. An interior backing is located on an interior of the insulating sleeve and fastened to the exterior housing through the insulating sleeve. The exterior housing and the interior backing sandwich a portion of the lateral wall of the insulating sleeve.

A method and device for attaching and detaching material to a c-channel groove, including attachment and detachment between first and second objects already attached to the groove. The device comprises a coil-shaped element that is resiliently compressible and connected to a desired material. Through biasing, the coil-shaped element is navigable into an aperture of the c-channel groove at a point along the c-channel groove between the ends of the c-channel groove and positionable such that at least a portion of the biased coil-shaped element is in the c-channel groove. Upon restoring the biased coil-shaped element toward a second, larger dimension, it is secured in the c-channel groove and the material connected to the coil-shaped element is attached to the c-channel groove, including between the first object and the second object, if present.

A method and device for attaching and detaching material to a c-channel groove without requiring tools and without needing to access an end of the c-channel. The device comprises a coil-shaped element that is resiliently compressible and connected to a desired material. Through biasing or twisting the coil-shaped element, it is insertable at any point along a c-channel groove. The coil-shaped element is secured within the c-channel groove against separation therefrom through friction. A portion of the coil-shaped element can be extended outside of the c-channel groove for easy removal.

A self-sealing fastener for installation of roofing materials for creating a substantially watertight seal around fastener penetrations where roofing materials or panels are affixed to an underlying roof deck by the fasteners. Also disclosed is a method for installing the self-sealing fastener for attachment of roofing materials to an underlying roof deck with the penetrations areas or holes created by the fasteners being substantially sealed against water penetration.

A conveying device includes a quick fastener that connects a profiled element to a machine frame's base support and that supports a sliding strip on which a conveying element slides as it circulates around deflection elements to form a loop and conveys goods along a transport direction.
