FASTENER, ASSEMBLY, AND METHOD OF MAKING AND USING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240044354 titled 'FASTENER, ASSEMBLY, AND METHOD OF MAKING AND USING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a fastener that consists of a fastener body with a central aperture and opposing major surfaces, as well as a secondary base with a secondary aperture. The fastener also includes a functional layer that covers the first major surface of the base, while the second major surface is either free of the functional layer or overlaid with a different second functional layer.

  • The fastener has a base with a central aperture and opposing major surfaces.
  • It also has a secondary base with a secondary aperture.
  • A functional layer is present on the first major surface of the base.
  • The second major surface is either free of the functional layer or has a different second functional layer.

Potential Applications:

  • This fastener could be used in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, construction, and manufacturing.
  • It can be used to securely fasten different components together.
  • The secondary aperture can provide additional functionality, such as allowing for the attachment of accessories or secondary fasteners.

Problems Solved:

  • The fastener provides a reliable and secure way to join components together.
  • The secondary aperture adds versatility and flexibility to the fastening system.
  • The different functional layers can provide specific properties or functionalities to suit different applications.

Benefits:

  • The fastener allows for quick and efficient assembly and disassembly of components.
  • The secondary base and aperture provide additional options for customization and attachment.
  • The use of different functional layers allows for tailored performance and compatibility with specific requirements.


Original Abstract Submitted

a fastener including: a fastener body including a base defining an aperture down a central axis, and first and second opposing major surfaces, and at least one secondary base defining a secondary aperture; and a functional layer overlying the first major surface of the base, where the second opposing major surface is free of the functional layer or is overlaid with a second functional layer different than the first functional layer.
