Floating joint system for panels on a support structure

The joint is at first made through bolts (1) that have a threaded end section (3) coupled to a nut element (4) settled on the inner face of the support structure (5). It is characterized in that the heads of the bolts (1) comprise an annular extension (10) that has a lower flat face (13) settled on an area (11) also flat of the outer free face of the panels (6), the bolts (1) contacting with the panels (6) exclusively through said annular extension (10), existing in this contact at least one sliding surface with low or zero friction coefficient. With the new system of the invention the use of inlayed washers as conventionally occurs is prevented, while the thickness of the panels can be reduced, achieving a significant saving as for weight and costs.

Improved tapered fastener

A vibration resistant nut is provided for attaching a working surface to a threaded stud, the stud extending through a hole defined through the working surface.

Loosing prevention bolt assembly

The present invention relates to a self-locking bolt assembly comprising: a bolt having a bolt head and a bolt shaft extending to be perpendicular to the bolt head, having a first thread formed on an outer circumferential surface thereof; a fixing nut having a second thread formed therein to allow the first thread coupled thereto; and a washer disposed between the bolt and a fastening target. A plurality of coupling protrusions each having a sloped surface formed to be sloped and a vertical surface connecting adjacent sloped surfaces are provided on a lower end surface of the bolt head in a circumferential direction. A higher end portion of the sloped surface is formed to be oriented in a loosening direction of the bolt, and a lower end portion of the sloped surface is formed to be oriented in a fastening direction of the bolt. A plurality of arrest protrusions each having an arrest sloped surface formed to be sloped, and a vertical surface connecting adjacent arrest sloped surfaces are provided on an upper surface of the washer. A higher end portion of the arrest sloped surface is formed to be oriented in a loosening direction of the bolt, and a lower end portion of the arrest sloped surface is formed to be oriented in a fastening direction of the bolt. A magnetic member is provided within the washer to maintain a binding state of the washer and the fastening target by a magnetic force. When a rotational force acts in a loosening direction of the bolt, the sloped surface of the bolt is caught by the arrest sloped surface of the washer, thereby preventing rotation.
