The invention relates to an attachment device with a fastener, a first supporting disk and a second supporting disk, wherein the fastener has a head with a head contact surface and a pin extending out along a longitudinal axis, wherein the pin has an attachment end with a contact surface that is opposite the head contact surface. The first supporting disk has a suitably large opening to permit the pin to pass through the opening, and has a wedge-shaped section. The second supporting disk has a suitably large opening to permit the pin to pass through the opening and to permit the second supporting disk to turn relative to the fastener about the longitudinal axis of the pin. The second supporting disk is in contact with the wedge-shaped section and moves along the surface of the wedge-shaped section, when the second supporting disk and the fastener turn relative to each other about the longitudinal axis of the pin.

The fluid connector assembly includes a connector body with an intermediate portion that extends between opposite end portions and has a first bore. The connector body has an elongated wall that projects outwardly from the intermediate portion and that surrounds a second bore which opens to the first bore. A flat tube, which is made of a second material that is different than the first material and has at least one fluid passage, is in fluid communication with the second bore of the connector body. The flat tube has generally flat side walls and is lockingly retained with the connector body by male and female locking structures that cooperate with one another.

A self-locking push-on clip fastener for securing two components together is disclosed. The clip fastener includes a u-shaped clip body that includes upper and lower legs and a curved end that connects the legs. The clip body has an open end into which the component to be attached is inserted. The legs are movable between an initial, spaced apart arrangement in which the component may be inserted into the clip body, to a final component-engaging position in which the component is captured between the legs. A slidably movable u-shaped trigger is attached to the clip body. A trigger-guiding channel is formed on the inner wall of one or both of the legs of the clip body. The trigger is slidably movable in the channel. An interlock system comprising first and second windows is formed in one of the legs of the clip body and a flange extending from the trigger.

Self-locking edge clip fastener

A quick-connector connecting a first pipe and a second pipe. The quick-connector includes a housing that extends about a first axis and defines a bore that extends axially therethrough. A grab ring is disposed in the bore of the housing and includes a body that extends about and along the first axis between a first end and a second end and defines a passage that extends between the first and second ends for receiving one of the first or second pipes. A plurality of protrusions extend from the body in the passage for clamping against the received pipe to prevent the received pipe from being axially removed from the passage. A plurality of hinges are spaced from one another about the body for allowing the body to uniformly and circumferentially flex about the hinges relative to the first axis when the first or second pipe is received in the passage.

Quick-connector

A self-reinforcing clip for securing a panel to a hole. The self-reinforcing clip comprises a first support member and a second support member each disposed in spaced relationship with one another and defining a gap therebetween. Each of the support members have a body portion and a flange portion. At least one tooth extends outwardly from at least one of the body portions for engaging an inner wall of the hole. At least one of the support members defines a contact surface. Further, at least one cross-over member is coupled to at least one of the support members and extends across the gap past the body portion of the other support member in alignment with the contact surface for engaging the contact surface for inhibiting movement of the support members toward one another when upward forces attempt to pull the clip from the hole.
