  • Patent number: 10036410
    Abstract: The invention concerns an article comprising a first part fitted with flexible lugs, a second part with a foot configured to be moved in rotation in relation to the first part, and with a head to which the foot is connected, and a blocking element, a guide zone and a locking zone configured to allow the rotation then the locking in rotation of the second part in relation to the first part, in order for the article to pass from a waiting configuration, in which the element is in the guide zone and the lugs are in a rest position, to a locked configuration in which the element is in the locking zone, the lugs are in a working position in which they are spaced in relation to the rest position and the second part is blocked in relation to the first part.

  • Patent number: 7967266
    Abstract: The hook includes a body having a receiving space for receiving the journal and, within the body, a clip for coupling to the journal and an actuator for actuating the clip. The clip includes a semi-cylindrical wall, two flaps and two hinges for pivotal hinging of each flap to a respective one of the walls. The clip has a closed position in which the flaps have come towards each other to form with the wall a bearing for the journal, and an open position in which the flaps are separated for freeing and insertion of the journal from/into the receiving space. The passage from one position to the other is actuated by the actuator by pressing the journal on the wall.

  • Publication number: 20080301915
    Abstract: The hook comprises a body having a housing for receiving the journal and, within the body, a clip for coupling to the journal adapted to delimit said housing and means for actuating said clip. The clip comprises a semi-cylindrical wall, two flaps and two hinges for pivotal hinging of a respective said flap with respect to said wall. The clip has a closed position in which said flaps have come towards each other to form with the wall a bearing for the journal, and an open position in which the flaps are separated for freeing, from said housing, and insertion, into said housing, of said journal, the passage from one to the other of said positions being actuated by said actuating means by pressing of said journal on said wall.

  • Patent number: 7001126
    Abstract: A rivet (1) includes a bearing head (2), a pulling stem (3) and an insertion body (4). The insertion body (4) includes at least two longitudinal flat surfaces (13) interrupting a notched portion (14); and at least two elastic feet (15) each having a first end elastically joined to the insertion body (4) and a second end which is free. Each of these elastic feet (15) is adapted to adopt a folded position in which it is folded along the insertion body (4), on one of the flat surfaces (13), and a tightened position in which it is arranged transversely of the general orientation of the insertion body (4). The bearing head (2) has at least one slot (9) enabling the head to deform radially.
