    Abstract: Provided is a nut that resists being loosened and is easy to be tightened. A nut 600 includes a nut main body 10 having a tapped hole 30 formed therein; an annular member 41 formed on the side of a top surface of the nut main body 10; and an outer frame member 45 formed on the side of an outer edge of the annular member 41. The annular member 41 includes a second end portion 42b in contact with a top surface 11 of the nut main body 10 and a first end portion 42a located opposite to the second end portion 42b. A top surface of the first end portion 42a is located above a top surface of the second end portion 42b. A first gap 40 is formed between the first end portion 42a and the top surface 11 of the nut main body 10. A second gap 49 is formed between a side surface of the annular member 41 and an inner wall 47 of the outer frame member 45. The top surface of the first end portion 42a of the annular member 41 is located above a top surface 46 of the outer frame member 45. The inner wall 47 of the outer frame member 45 is inclining while tapering in an upward direction.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a fitting for attachment to a part. The fitting comprises a body and a nut assembly. The body comprises a nut portion. The nut portion comprises a nut receptacle having a converging portion and a central axis. The nut assembly comprises a seal and a nut. The seal is within the nut receptacle, non-translatably fixed relative to the nut receptacle, and spaced apart from the converging portion. The nut is within the nut receptacle, is translatable along the central axis of the nut receptacle, and comprises resilient fingers that are resiliently deformable away from the central axis. Translation of the nut along the central axis is constrained by the converging portion and the seal.

    Abstract: A nut plate assembly includes a plate member, a shell member, a nut, and a bias member. The plate member includes a retention tab. The shell member includes a first end coupled to the plate member by the retention tab and a second end opposite the first end. The nut is disposed within the shell member and is moveable between a first position proximate the shell member first end and a second position proximate the shell member second end. In addition, the bias member is disposed within the shell member and is configured to bias the nut toward one of the first position and the second position.

    Abstract: A two-part fastener with an insert and a compression sleeve. The insert is an internally-threaded fastener intended to be installed into a hole of a very hard panel. The insert itself is relatively hard with a knurled outer barrel portion and a flange at the bottom. A compression sleeve is made of relatively soft material and is preassembled around the barrel of the insert by friction fit. Upon installation into a panel with a blind hole having parallel sides, the compression sleeve is pressed into the panel and deforms outwardly between the insert and the side wall of the hole. Friction between the compression sleeve and the wall of the hole prevents torque out and pull out of the fastener from the panel.

    Abstract: A bolt with braked unscrewing consists of a screw and a nut. The screw or nut includes, in the axial direction, at least three stepped portions of continuous thread, namely an introduction portion for introducing the screw into the nut, a braking portion and an intermediate portion connecting the introduction portion to the braking portion. The braking portion has a thread diameter that is constant and different from the thread diameter of the introduction portion.
