Fastener with shear bushing

摘要

A fastener is disclosed including a threaded male fastener and a shear bushing for coupling thin walled structures together. The shear bushing having an internal through opening and a shear ring constructed to project across an interface of adjacent walls is operable for absorbing shear loads transmitted into the fastener from a fastened structure. The male fastener includes a threaded portion extending through the shear ring for engaging a threaded female receiver.

主权项

1. A fastener comprising:
a male fastener having a head with a threaded shank extending therefrom; a female receiver having a threaded surface complementary to the threaded shank of the male fastener; a shear bushing having a shear ring extending from a flange, the shear ring forming a sleeve at least partially around a portion of the threads on the shank of the male fastener; wherein a coupling of the shear bushing forms an axial abutment with at least one of the female receiver and the male fastener to discourage relative axial movement of the shear bushing; and wherein an end of the threaded shank of the male fastener includes a planar surface which is flush with an outer surface of the female receiver in an installed configuration.
