    Abstract: A blind fastener (30) for connecting a plurality of panels (1,2) includes a core bolt (3) and a core nut (5). The core nut surrounds the core bolt. The core nut includes a main body (40), a nut head (46), and a tool engagement section (42). The nut head has a larger outside diameter than the main body. The core nut defines a frangible portion (52) between the nut head and the tool engagement section. The frangible portion is configured to allow the tool engagement section to break off from the nut head when a torque applied to the tool engagement section is greater than a threshold torque after the blind fastener is installed in the plurality of panels.

    Abstract: A rivetless nut plate assembly (20), which is fully preassembled, which can be installed into an aperture (1 12) of a composite material workpiece (110), such as a carbon fiber structure, without risking delamination of the workpiece. The rivetless nut plate assembly (20) includes a nut (22), a holding bracket (24), a retainer (28), and a sleeve member (25, 25a, 25b, 25c). Additionally, a stem (26) is used to install the rivetless nut plate assembly (20). The sleeve member (25, 25a, 25b, 25c) is configured such that the nut plate assembly (20) can be installed in a composite material workpiece (110) without risking delamination. The sleeve member (25, 25a, 25b, 25c) may be formed of 45Cb-55Ti Titanium Columbium, as Titanium Colurnbium is a high strength and ductile material that resists corrosion in the presence of, for example, a carbon fiber composite structure (110). Monel, Titanium alloys, and other soft Nickel alloys are also good material selections for the sleeve (25, 25a, 25b, 25c), for similar reasons. Non-metallic materials with high tensile and shear strengths, such as Torlon or Parmax, would provide the desired corrosion protection and also offer a potential weight savings.

    Abstract: A repair/replacement nut plate assembly (133), which is fully preassembled, is provided which can be inserted into an oversized or reworked/reconditioned aperture (131, 131a) of a workpiece (110) after an original nut plate has been removed from the original aperture of the workpiece. The repair/replacement nut plate assembly (133) includes a nut (22), a holding bracket (24), a stem (26), a nut retainer (28), and a sleeve member (132). The sleeve member (132) is configured to be secured to a nut plate assembly (20), of the same type originally used to provide the original nut plate in the original aperture of the workpiece to compensate for material lost from the workpiece during the removal of the original nut plate. The sleeve member (132) allows for the original nut plate assembly (20) to be utilized, with only the securement of the sleeve member (132) to the holding bracket (24) prior to setting.

    Abstract: A tool for installing a blind fastener including a core bolt and a core nut is provided. The tool includes a driving member, a collet driven by the driving member for engaging the core bolt, and an external sleeve for holding the core nut and preventing the core nut from rotating during installation of the blind fastener. The external sleeve is movable between a first position in which the external sleeve is driven by the collet to rotate with the collet and a second position in which the external sleeve is stationary despite rotating action of the collet.

    Abstract: A blind fastener (10) for connecting panels (26,30) includes a bolt (14) and nut (18). The bolt includes a shaft (110), bolt head (114), and lug (118). The bolt head is between the shaft and lug. The lug includes a first tool engagement portion (150) and first frangible portion (154) that connects the lug and bolt head. The nut includes a sleeve (210), nut head (214), and handling member (218). A central bore (230) of the sleeve receives the shaft and defines internal threads (234) mated with the external threads. The nut head extends radially from the sleeve and defines a recess (242) that receives the bolt head. The handling member surrounds a portion of the lug. The handling member includes a second frangible portion (270) and a second tool engagement portion (266). The second frangible portion couples the second tool engagement portion to the nut head.

    Abstract: An insert for use in a sandwich-type structure, such as a honeycomb panel, is provided that includes a plug (22) and a sleeve (24). The sleeve includes a plurality of resilient beams (48), and when the plug is inserted into the sleeve, the resilient beams are elastically deflected by an exterior surface of a wall of the plug such that the insert is adjustable in height and can be positioned properly in an axial/insertion direction to accommodate sandwich-type structures of varying thickness. The result is an insert that maintains a flush profile with both opposing face sheets of the sandwich-type structure, thus reducing discontinuities in surface profile of the overall assembly.
