Fastener assemblies and nut plate assemblies for fastener assemblies include a nut defining a bore configured to receive a threaded fastener, and a lock member. The assembly has a locked configuration in which the lock member is configured to fix rotation of the threaded fastener relative to the nut and an unlocked configuration in which the threaded fastener is allowed to rotate relative to the nut. The assembly also includes a magnetic component configured to engage the lock member and switch the assembly between the locked configuration and the unlocked configuration.

Fastener assemblies and nut plate assemblies for fastener assemblies

A nut plate assembly includes a plate comprising an aperture defined therethrough, and a shell attached to the plate and extending along a center axis. The shell includes a first end and a second end. The nut plate also includes a nut disposed within the shell. The nut is moveable between a first position proximate the first end of the shell and a second position proximate the second end of the shell. The nut includes a first curved engagement surface and is tiltable relative to the center axis when the nut is retained within the shell.

Nut plate assembly including tiltable floating nut with curved interface

Fastener assemblies and nut plate assemblies include a plate member, a shell member and a floating nut disposed within the shell member and defining a bore configured to receive a threaded fastener. The fastener assemblies and nut plate assemblies also include at least one magnetic component disposed within the shell member and configured to switch the nut plate assembly between a locked configuration and an unlocked configuration.

A fastener assembly includes a threaded member and a first lock member coupled to the threaded member. The first lock member includes a plurality of ratchet teeth. The fastener assembly further includes a second lock member including at least one lock tooth configured to engage the plurality of ratchet teeth of the first lock member. The fastener assembly has a locked configuration in which the at least one lock tooth engages the plurality of ratchet teeth and an unlocked configuration in which the at least one lock tooth is spaced from the plurality of ratchet teeth. The fastener assembly also includes at least one lock arm coupled to the second lock member. The at least one lock arm extends at least in part radially outward of the second lock member. The at least one lock arm is configured to engage a surface to inhibit rotation of the second lock member.
