Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for securing a first part to a second part where the first part has a locking oblong hole. The method includes passing a locking threaded rod through the locking oblong hole and into the second part. The locking threaded rod is oversized with respect to a width of the locking oblong hole such that the locking threaded rod widens the locking oblong hole as the locking threaded rod is passing through the locking oblong hole.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An installation set, comprising: a first part, wherein the first part has a locking oblong hole and has a pre-fixing oblong hole, wherein the locking oblong hole has a maximum width; a locking threaded rod; and a pre-fixing threaded rod, wherein the locking threaded rod is oversized with respect to the maximum width of the locking oblong hole such that the locking threaded rod and the locking oblong hole are configured such that passing the locking threaded rod through the locking oblong hole causes the locking threaded rod to engage and interlock the locking oblong hole and to widen the maximum width of the locking oblong hole. 2. The installation set of claim 1 , wherein the pre-fixing threaded rod is undersized with respect to a width of the pre-fixing oblong hole such that the pre-fixing threaded rod does not widen the pre-fixing oblong hole when the pre-fixing threaded rod is passed through the pre-fixing oblong hole. 3. The installation set of claim 1 , wherein the first part is a bracket.
