Abstract

A fastener (1) for use in securing a panel member to an apertured wall structure (5), is of resilient construction and comprises interengaging first and second parts (3, 4). The parts (3, 4) are formed so that by manipulation, the wall structure (5) is secured between portions of the parts (3, 4). (See Figure 4). The first part (3) of the fastener (1) comprises a bifurcated block having a head portion (3a) housing a screw-threaded insert which receives a fixing screw. The two jaw-like bifurcations (3b) of the first part (3) define an elongated hollow (12) which provides a lead-in for the fixing screw. The second part (4) of the fastener (1) comprises a flange portion (4a) defining a central hole (20), and four hooks or lugs (4b) disposed at the corners of an imaginary square. The hole (20) is sized to locate, with clearance, the fixing screw. To install the fastener (1) in the aperture (25), parts (3) and (4) are assembled whereby the lugs (4b) of part (4) are pushed or "snapped" over landings (18) of part (3). The interengaging assembly (3/4) is next pushed en bloc into the aperture (25) whereby the bifurcations (3b) of the part (3) initially collapse towards each other. The fastener (1) is firmly installed in place by pushing the part (3) away from the part (4) until the resilient bifurcations (3b) are free of the restraint provided by the aperture (25) and move apart, to "snap" into position wherby the lugs (4b) grip the bifurcations (3b), so that the flange portion (4a) and the end walls (18) are clamped securely together.
