연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

Low-profile fastener assemblies for mounting objects, such as decorative architectural resin panels, to a support structure at a standoff include a standoff barrel, threaded rod, and low-profile cap. The low-profile cap can have a curved profile configured to reduce its height while also allowing for one or more separated recesses to be formed therein. Implementations of the present invention also include a cap key configured to engage the one or more separated recesses of the low-profile cap for use in tightening the low-profile cap onto the threaded ro...

1. A fastener assembly for securing one or more panels to a structure at a standoff comprising: a rod comprised of first and second ends joined by an elongated middle portion, at least a portion of said elongated middle portion and said first end of said rod including external threads;a standoff comprised of first and second ends joined by a middle portion which includes a threaded recess;said first end of said standoff adapted for threadedly securing said standoff to a support structure;said second end of said standoff adapted for threadedly securing said first end of said rod within said threaded recess in a manner so that a mounting support is defined by said second end of said rod and at least a second portion of said elongated middle portion of said rod, said mounting support being extendable through one or more perforations in a panel when the panel is mounted to said mounting support of said rod; anda cap having a portion which fits onto said mounting support of said rod, securing the panel onto said mounting support of said rod by securing the panel between said cap on one side of the panel, with said mounting support of said rod extending through the one or more perforations in the panel, and with said standoff being secured on the other side of the panel opposite from said cap, so that together said rod, said standoff, and said cap, when assembled, support and space the panel from the support structure. 2. The assembly as recited in claim 1, wherein said cap includes a head portion and a shoulder portion extending from said head portion, said shoulder portion having internal threads adapted for threadedly securing said cap to said mounting support of said rod. 3. The assembly as recited in claim 2, wherein said head portion is comprised of a curved profile and two or more separated recesses extending into said curved profile, said two or more recesses adapted for receiving corresponding key elements to apply torque to said cap. 4. The assembly as recited in claim 2, further comprising: a panel washer comprised of a cylindrical body and a flange, said cylindrical body adapted for placing around said shoulder portion of said cap and within the one or more perforations in the panel; andsaid flange adapted for abutting against said head portion of said cap. 5. The assembly as recited in claim 4, wherein said flange of said washer is adapted for forming a barrier between said cap and the panel. 6. The assembly as recited in claim 2, further comprising a washer comprised of a counterbore adapted for receiving said shoulder portion of said cap. 7. The assembly as recited in claim 6, wherein said washer is adapted for providing a barrier between the panel and said standoff. 8. The assembly as recited in claim 1, wherein, in an assembled configuration, said standoff fixedly connects to said rod, and said rod fixedly connects to said cap. 9. A method of mounting a panel to a support structure at a standoff, the method comprising: attaching a standoff to a first side of a support structure;attaching a rod to said standoff such that at least a portion of said rod extends from said standoff as a mounting support;inserting said mounting support of said rod through a perforation at a first side in a panel facing the first side of the support structure; andat a second side of the panel opposite from the first side of the panel, attaching a cap through the perforation and onto said mounting support of said rod such that the panel is secured between said cap on the second side of the panel and said standoff between the first side of the panel opposite from said cap, with said standoff spacing the panel from the support structure. 10. The method as recited in claim 9, further comprising inserting a cylindrical, hollow-bodied washer within the perforation of the panel to form a protective barrier between the panel and said mounting support of said rod. 11. The method as recited in claim 10, further comprising inserting the rod through said washer to support the panel. 12. The method as recited in claim 9, further comprising positioning a washer on said rod between the panel and said standoff to form a protective barrier between said standoff and the first side of the panel. 13. The method as recited in claim 12, further comprising positioning at least a portion of said cap within a counter-bore of said washer. 14. A fastener assembly for securing one or more panels to a support structure at a standoff comprising: a rod comprised of first and second ends joined by an elongated middle portion;a standoff comprised of first and second ends joined by a middle portion; andsaid first end of the standoff adapted for attaching said standoff to a support structure;said second end of said standoff and said middle portion of said standoff adapted for attaching to said first end of said rod and a portion of said elongated middle portion of said rod in a manner so that a mounting support is defined by said second end of said rod and at least a second portion of said elongated middle portion of said rod, said mounting support of said rod being extendable through one or more perforations in a panel when the panel is mounted to said mounting support of said rod;a cap having a portion which fits into at least one of the perforations and which fits onto and attaches to said mounting support of said rod, securing the panel onto said mounting support of said rod by securing said panel between said cap on a first side of the panel, with said mounting support of said rod extending through the one or more perforations in a the panel, and with said standoff being secured on a second side of the panel opposite from said cap on the first side of the panel, so that together said rod, said standoff, and said cap, when assembled, support and space the panel from the support structure; anda protective element configured to provide a barrier between the cap and the panel, the protective element comprising:a first portion positioned between the cap and the first side of the panel;anda second portion positioned within the at least one perforation in the panel, between the panel and the portion of the cap which fits into the least one perforation. 15. The fastener assembly of claim 14, wherein said second end of said standoff includes a threaded recess adapted for threadedly coupling said first end of said rod to said standoff. 16. The fastener assembly of claim 14, wherein said cap and said standoff are substantially concentric relative to one another when the panel is secured between said cap and said standoff. 17. A method of mounting a panel to a support structure at a standoff, the method comprising: securing a standoff including a threaded recess to a first side of a support structure;threadedly securing a threaded rod within said threaded recess of said standoff such that at least a portion of said rod extends from said standoff as a mounting support;inserting said mounting support of said rod through a perforation at a first side in a panel facing the first side of the support structure; andat a second side of the panel opposite from the first side of the panel, inserting a cap having internal threads through the perforation and threadedly securing said internal threads of said cap onto said mounting support of said rod such that the panel is secured between said cap on the second side of the panel and said standoff between the first side of the panel opposite from said cap, with said standoff spacing the panel from the support structure. 18.
