Various types or various configurations of U-nut type fasteners are disclosed within U. An installation tool for installing an individual U-nut type fastener upon a plate or panel is also disclosed within U.

In connection with the sale and distribution of U-nut fasteners, the same are normally placed in storage bins in preparation for conveyance to packaging machinery, however, as can readily be appreciated, due to the unique structure of U-nut fasteners, the conventional storage of such fasteners usually results in the interlocking or entanglement of such fasteners. Such interlocking or entanglement of the fasteners prevents the efficient packaging of the fasteners, and in addition, inhibits the efficient and rapid use of such fasteners during installation procedures because, obviously, the interlocked or entangled fasteners must first be unlocked or disentangled from each other prior to use and installation of the same.

A need has therefore existed in the art for a new and improved U-nut type fastener which permits and facilitates the stacking or nesting of such fasteners into a collated strip whereby the fasteners can be packaged in a substantially improved and efficient manner, and for a new and improved collated strip of such fasteners wherein the fasteners can be readily disposed or oriented for disposition within the magazine of an installation tool such that the tool can apply the fasteners to edge portions of support plates or panels.

Nevertheless, as can be appreciated from the aforenoted patent to Muller et al. A need therefore still exists in the art for an installation tool which can accommodate a stacked, nested, or collated strip of U-nut type fasteners within a magazine portion thereof, which is additionally able to easily remove or separate an individual one of the fasteners from the collated or nested strip of fasteners, and which is able to be utilized by operator personnel to rapidly install such separated U-nut type fasteners upon edge portions of support plates, panels, or the like.

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a new and improved tool for installing U-nut type fasteners upon edge portions of support plates or panels. Another object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved tool for installing U-nut type fasteners which effectively overcomes the various drawbacks or disadvantages characteristic of PRIOR ART U-nut type fastener installation tools.

An additional object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved tool for installing U-nut type fasteners wherein the tool can house a nested, stacked, or collated array of U-nut type fasteners within the tool magazine. A further object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved installation tool which is uniquely structured for removing or separating individual U-nut fasteners from the nested or collated strip of fasteners and for installing the separated U-nut fastener upon an edge portion of a support plate or panel.

The foregoing and other objectives are achieved in accordance with the teachings and principles of the present invention through the provision of a new and improved tool for installing U-nut type fasteners wherein a vertically nested, stacked, or collated array of such fasteners is able to be housed within a magazine portion of the tool.

The magazine portion of the tool also serves as an operator handle by means of which the tool is able to be grasped and manipulated by operator personnel. The magazine-handle portion of the tool is also pivotally mounted upon a head portion of the tool within which an endmost one of the U-nut fasteners is disposed as a result of the vertically nested, stacked, or collated strip being biased toward the dispensing station or position by means of a spring member.

When the endmost one of the U-nut fasteners is to, in effect, be dispensed and mounted upon, for example, an edge portion of a support plate or panel, the operator grasps the handle-magazine portion of the tool and tilts the same in a direction opposite from the direction in which the endmost U-nut fastener is to be dispensed or moved onto the edge portion of the support plate or panel. This tilting of the magazine-handle portion of the tool serves to initially separate the endmost U-nut fastener from the remaining U-nut fasteners disposed within the tool magazine-handle, and in conjunction with such tilting movement or motion, the head portion of the tool, which now has the single and separated endmost U-nut fastener disposed therein, is in effect moved toward the support plate or panel upon which the endmost U-nut fastener is to be mounted.

Once the endmost U-nut fastener is in effect dispensed from the head portion of the installation tool and mounted upon the edge portion of the support plate or panel, the handle-magazine portion of the installation tool is permitted to move back to its non-tilted home or initial position, which movement is assisted by means of a second biasing spring mechanism interconnecting the handle-magazine portion of the tool to the head portion of the tool, whereby the biasing spring of the magazine is now able to force the collated strip of U-nut fasteners toward the head portion of the tool whereby the next endmost U-nut fastener is now disposed within the head portion of the installation tool in preparation for a new U-nut fastener installation operation.

Various other objects, features, and attendant advantages of the present invention will be more fully appreciated from the following detailed description when considered in connection with the accompanying drawings in which like reference characters designate like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and wherein:. Referring now to the drawings, and more particularly to FIG. As is apparent, the U-nut fastener 10 is seen to comprise a first lower arm member 12 , a second upper arm member 14 , and an intermediate folded bite portion 16 integrally interconnecting the first and second arm members 12 , 14 such that the overall fastener 10 has a substantially U-shaped configuration with the first and second lower and upper arms 12 , 14 disposed substantially parallel to each other.

The fastener 10 can be fabricated by means of suitable extrusion or stamping operations from a sheet metal blank, and it is further seen that the first lower arm member 12 has integrally formed therewith an annular hoop member or retainer ring 18 which is partially severed as at 20 from a main or primary arm portion 22 of first lower arm member 12 such that the annular hoop member or retainer ring 18 is flexibly and integrally connected to the main or primary arm portion 22 of first lower arm member 12 by means of a hinge portion The annular hoop member or retainer ring 18 has a central aperture 26 defined therein, and is normally disposed in an inclined mode at a predetermined angle with respect to the main or primary arm portion 22 for engaging an aperture defined within an edge portion of a sup-port plate or panel when the U-nut fastener 10 is mounted upon an edge portion of the support plate or panel.

Lastly, the first lower arm member 12 is also provided with a recessed cut-out region 28 which is defined within the free end or forward edge portion 30 so as to assist the proper or desired stacking or nesting of a plurality of the U-nut fasteners when forming a vertical array of the U-nut fasteners for packaging and use within the installation tool of the present invention.

The second upper arm member 14 is provided with an internally threaded, upwardly projecting sleeve or nut member 32 which is substantially axially aligned with the aperture 26 defined within the annular hoop member or retainer ring 18 so as to accommodate a threaded bolt fastener, not shown, which is adapted to be passed through an aperture defined within the support plate or panel upon which the U-nut fastener 10 and the component, also not shown, are to be mounted.

A frusto-conical portion 34 integrally connects the lower end portion of the sleeve or nut member 32 to an upper surface region of a main or primary arm portion 36 of second upper arm member 14 so as to properly distribute the threaded load onto the support plate or panel, not shown.

The second upper arm member 14 is also provided at its free end or forward edge portion 38 with an upwardly inclined latch projection 40 which is adapted to mate with the recessed cutout portion 28 of the first lower arm member 12 when a plurality of U-nut fasteners 10 are nested or collated together in a vertically stacked array for packaging purposes as well as for magazine loading within the installation tool of the present invention.
