  • Patent number: 11565447
    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for a spacer for a manufactured structure. A spacer includes a plurality of legs where each leg includes an elongate member that extends from a proximal end to a distal end. The proximal end of each leg is connected to one another at a central point such that the legs are spaced radially about the central point and substantially equidistant from one another. The distal ends of the legs include a material that has a predefined melting point such that the distal ends attach to a surface in contact with the distal ends responsive to the predefined melting point being reached during a molding process.
    Type: Grant
