  • Self-Clinching Nuts Install Permanently in Aluminum, Steel Or Stainless Steel Sheets
    PEM® brand self-clinching nuts install permanently in aluminum, steel or stainless steel sheets. CL™ SELF-CLINCHING NUTS SELF-CLINCHING NUTS Self-clinching nuts are installed by placing them in properly sized holes in sheets and applying a parallel squeezing force to the head of the nut. The sheet metal surrounding the head cold flows into an undercut thereby making the fastener an integral part of the sheet. A serrated clinching ring prevents the fastener from rotating after installation.

  • Sensorsnaps: Integrating Wireless Sensor Nodes Into Fabric Snap Fasteners for Textile Interfaces. Proc of UIST'19
    SensorSnaps: Integrating Wireless Sensor Nodes into Fabric Snap Fasteners for Textile Interfaces Artem Dementyev Tomás Vega Gálvez Alex Olwal MIT Media Lab MIT Media Lab Google Inc. Cambridge, MA Cambridge, MA Mountain View, CA [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT Adding electronics to textiles can be time-consuming and A B requires technical expertise. We introduce SensorSnaps, low- power wireless sensor nodes that seamlessly integrate into caps of fabric snap fasteners. SensorSnaps provide a new technique to quickly and intuitively augment any location on the clothing with sensing capabilities. SensorSnaps securely attach and detach from ubiquitous commercial snap fasteners. Using inertial measurement units, the SensorSnaps detect tap and rotation gestures, as well as track body motion. We optimized the power consumption for SensorSnaps to work continuously for 45 minutes and up to 4 hours in capacitive touch standby mode. We present applications in which the SensorSnaps are used as gestural interfaces for a music player controller, cursor control, and motion tracking suit. The user study showed that SensorSnap could be attached in around 71 seconds, similar C D to attaching off-the-shelf snaps, and participants found the gestures easy to learn and perform. SensorSnaps could allow anyone to effortlessly add sophisticated sensing capacities to ubiquitous snap fasteners. Author Keywords Wireless sensor nodes, wearables, textile interfaces, ubiquitous computing, low-power CCS Concepts Human-centered computing -> Interaction devices; Interac- • tion techniques; User interface design Figure 1. SensorSnaps embed miniaturized electronics into generic snap fasteners, making it possible to augment garments with wireless elec- INTRODUCTION tronics that enable on-device gesture recognition, wireless connectivity, motion tracking with sensor fusion, and touch sensing.

Chapter 1: Fasteners Module 1: Screws Before we get into the diff erent types of screws, let’s take a look at the diff erent types of head styles and drive types. The head style refers to the shape of the head. The drive type refers to the type of driver needed to secure the fastener. Here are the Head Styles: Here are the Drive Types: • Flat • Round • Phillips • Hex • Oval • Hex • Slotted • Star • Pan • Hex Washer • Combination • Square • Truss Product Knowledge: Sheet Metal Screw • This screw fastens thin metal to thin metal. • It is threaded its entire length. • Can have fl at, oval, round or binding heads. • Typical lengths range from 1/8” to 2”. • Starting holes are either drilled or punched and should be slightly smaller than the screw diameter. Machine Screw • Intended to be screwed into pre-threaded holes in metal. • Another type is a Thread-Cutting Machine Screw, which has a head that cuts its own threads as it goes into a hole. • May look like a bolt, but user drives it with a screwdriver instead of a wrench. • Thread is measured in threads per inch, or tpi. Comes in coarse (24 threads per inch) and fi ne (32 threads per inch) sizes. • Can have round, oval, fl at and fi llister heads.
