  • Patent number: 5537783
    Abstract: A holder for a window glass of a vehicle which has a reduced number of parts, which can make the mounting operation simpler, thereby lowering costs, and which can prevent the window glass from having play or loosening. The holder comprises a nut and a bolt. The nut has a female screw sleeve portion which is to be inserted with a clearance into a mounting hole formed in the window glass, and a holding plate member radially outwardly extending from the sleeve portion. The bolt has a screw shaft member to be screwed into the female screw sleeve portion, and a holding plate member radially outwardly extending from the screw shaft member. In addition, a cushion layer made of a synthetic thermoplastic resin elastomer is attached to the inside surface of each holding plate member. The cushion layer is provided at its inner circumferential edge with a short sleeve portion for protecting an edge of the mounting hole of the window glass.

  • Patent number: 5203051
    Abstract: A grommet for automatic insertion into a mounting hole in a panel by a robot including a head portion 1 having a longitudinal bore for receiving a screw through its center, a bottom portion 3 including a stepped portion 7 elastically engaging the robot arm located within the longitudinal bore; and locking claws 4 attached to the grommet which reflect during insertion of the grommet into the mounting hole and then spring snap into engagement when the locking claws 4 clear the mounting hole, such that the force required to disengage the robot arm 5 from the stepped portion 7 is less than the force required to extract the grommet from the panel, which enables the robot to easily determine whether or not the grommet is accurately inserted into the mounting hole.
