摘要: A torque-limiting nut is provided. The torque-limiting nut has a washer, a threaded component, and a tool interface. The threaded component has a plurality of detents and the tool interface has a corresponding plurality of recesses and a spring groove. A plurality of engagement members are sized and shaped to fit within the plurality of detents and recesses. An elastic member in the spring grooves provides a compressive force to seat the pins in the corresponding detents to frictionally couple the threaded component and tool interface. When a torque required to rotate the tool interface exceeds a predetermined value, the pin moves against the spring and unseats from the detent such that the tool interface rotates without rotating the threaded component.

摘要: A safety fastener and a safety system are provided. The safety fastener indicates when a fastener is damaged, and the safety system indicates when a safety critical component is damaged. The fastener includes a load bearing body that encloses an inner volume filled with fluid, and a fluid sensor that detects the presence of the fluid within the inner volume. When the fluid sensor detects the fluid, a “fluid present” state is activated. If the fastener is damaged, fluid may escape from the inner volume, such that the fluid sensor leaves the “fluid present” state, indicating damage has occurred.

摘要: A nut is configured to be secured to a bolt. The nut includes a main body that defines an axially aligned bore with threads disposed on an inner wall thereof. Further, the nut includes a dome-shaped head that has an axially aligned aperture and that is provided to be deformed by threads on the bolt when a predetermined burst-through torque is applied thereto.

摘要: A steering column for a motor vehicle may include a crash device that has at least two components that have mutually facing surfaces. The at least two components may be connected to each other by means of a shear element that is arranged in an opening passing at least partially through the components such that the shear element is broken in two if the components move relative to each other. To improve the predetermined breaking connection, the opening may have, in at least one edge region bounding one of the mutually facing surfaces, a widened portion that extends at least over a partial circumferential region and is open towards the respective other surface.

摘要: The disclosed technology includes a breakaway cable attachment system for attaching a cable to a utility pole. The breakaway cable attachment system can include a rail, a bracket, and a clamp. The rail can be attachable to a utility pole and have a base and two sidewalls extending outwardly from the base and forming a slot. The bracket can have an attachment portion and a mounting portion that extends at an angle away from the attachment portion. The mounting portion can be configured to extend at least partially into the slot of the rail for attachment to the rail. The clamp can be attachable to the attachment portion and receive and support a cable. The breakaway cable attachment system can be configured to prevent damage to the utility pole and/or the cable when a predetermined load is applied to the cable by detaching the cable from the utility pole.
