  • Patent number: 11940000
    Abstract: A weld nut assembly, including: an annular flange structure; and an annular body structure coupled to the annular flange structure; wherein the annular flange structure and the annular body structure collectively define an inner bore, wherein at least a portion of the inner bore defined proximate the annular flange structure defines threads adapted to receive a screw disposed within the inner bore. The weld nut assembly further includes an annular washer or bottom structure coupled to the annular flange structure. Optionally, the weld nut assembly further includes an annular ring projection and a plurality of circumferential weld protrusions coupled to the annular flange structure. The annular flange structure is adapted to be welded to a surface of a body panel or other structure of a vehicle with the inner bore aligned with a hole formed through the body panel or other structure, the hole adapted to receive the screw therethrough.

  • Patent number: 9248631
    Abstract: A packaging laminate includes at least one material layer provided with magnetizable particles. A roller can be configured to apply crease line patterns on the packaging laminate while also applying magnetic fields for magnetizing at least some of the magnetizable particles in the packaging laminate. A method of controlling working operations on a packaging laminate in a filling machine involves supplying a packaging laminate to a filling machine, wherein the packaging laminate includes at least one material layer comprising magnetizable particles, with at least some of the magnetizable particles being magnetized particles. The method also involves controlling working operations of the filling machine on the packaging laminate supplied to the filling machine by reading information provided by the magnetized particles.
