    摘要: A laundry appliance includes a basement housing comprising a capacitor receiver. A capacitor is disposed within the capacitor receiver to define a secured position. The capacitor receiver includes at least one retaining flange that is coupled to the basement housing via a living hinge. At least one retaining flange is outwardly biased away from a body of the capacitor when the capacitor is placed in an inserted position. At least one retaining flange includes a thread-engaging surface that operates to the secured position upon rotation of the capacitor in the inserted position.

    摘要: A fastening system is configured to securely couple a fastened component to a mating structure using a fastener with a shaft. The fastening system includes a compression limiting sleeve and a spring element. The compression limiting sleeve has an axial hub, a base, and a sleeve outer wall. The axial hub extends perpendicularly from the base and is configured to receive the shaft of the fastener. The sleeve outer wall extends from the base. The spring element has a central portion and a spring element outer wall. The central portion includes a central opening and at least one coupling feature. The central opening is configured to receive the shaft of the fastener. The at least one coupling feature is configured to engage the axial hub of the compression limiting device.

    摘要: A fastener including a bolt having a head, a shank portion, and an annular groove located intermediate the head and the shank portion, and a sleeve having a head, a shank portion, an inner cavity, a recess located in the head of the sleeve, and an annular tab located at a bottom of the recess and proximate to the shank portion of the sleeve. The sleeve receives the bolt such that the shank portion of the bolt is positioned within the inner cavity of the sleeve and the head of the bolt is positioned within the recess of the head of the sleeve. When the bolt is in an installed positon within the sleeve, the annular tab of the sleeve is deformed and engages the annular groove of the bolt.

    摘要: A fastener including a body having a threaded portion and an opposing, tapered portion, where the tapered portion includes an outwardly angled surface, and a sleeve movably connected to the body. The sleeve includes a plurality of fingers at least partially separated from each other, where each of the fingers includes at least two, axially spaced gripping members protruding from the body. When the fastener is inserted in a borehole formed in a substrate and a fastening member is threaded onto the threaded portion and tightened, the sleeve progressively moves along the angled surface causing the fingers to move outwardly and at least one of the gripping members to engage an inner surface of the substrate forming the borehole to secure the fastener in the borehole.

    摘要: In embodiments, a mounting bracket may facilitate an attachment of a first device to an enclosure of a second device. A shoulder screw may be inserted through a grommet which is mounted in a bracket, and the shoulder screw may be threaded into an opening within the first device. The grommet may have an axial through-hole with a counter bore. A portion of the shoulder screw may be threaded to mate with a threaded opening of the first device and may be designed to compress the grommet for secure mounting. A raised cylindrical section on the shoulder of the screw may be captured within the counter bore of the grommet when pressed into position and another raised section of the shoulder may prevent the screw from being pulled out of the counter bore when the screw is unthreaded from the corresponding opening of the first device.
