Abstract:
An adjustable hinge assembly for swingably joining hinging panel members together, where improved mounting capability is provided, and adjustability of a pin (12) and the hinge components in multiple directions relative to the hinging panels and to each other is provided, where a base member (14) is mounted to a first hinging member and a pin-carrying member (11) is connected to the base, and a base member mounted to a second hinging member and maintains an adjustable pin-receiving component (13) thereon. Stops (91, 92, 93, 94) are provided to regulate the pivot of the members over a predetermined range.
Abstract:
A key operated latch (10) includes a housing which supports a lock plug (111), a motion control sleeve (40), and a sleeve-like cam (20) therein. The cam (20) rotates with the lock plug (111), while the motion control sleeve (40) is stationary. The cam (20) has at least one cam slot, and the motion control sleeve (40) has at least one motion control slot. A shaft (50) extends outward from the housing and has at least one projection which is engaged with both the cam slot and the motion control slot. The cam slot and the motion control slot are configured such that rotation of the lock plug imparts a sequence of rotational and axial movements to the shaft (50). A latching member (70) attached to the shaft, moves between a latched position and an unlatched position in a sequence of axial and rotational motions in order to selectively secure a door, panel, or the like in the closed position.

Abstract:
A fastener secures to a first member. The fastener comprises an attachment member and a retaining member connected to the attachment member for rotation. The attachment member has a body and a support. The retaining member is positioned between the body and the support. The support is attached to and moveable relative to the body for regulating frictional resistance between the retaining member and the attachment member.

Abstract:
A fastener (10) secures first (100) and second (102) panel members. The fastener (10) comprises an attachment member (12) and a retaining member (14) connected to the attachment member (12). For mounting the fastener (10), the first panel member (100) is provided with an aperture therethrough. The fastener (10) is snapped into position when the camming surface (19) of the attachment member (12) is moved past the edge (109) of the aperture in the first panel member (100). The fastener (10) can then be secured to the second panel member (102) at any desired time. A mounting element such as a bolt (91) can be inserted into the through holes (58, 59) of the fastener (10) and then received into a threaded aperture through the second panel member (102).
