Provided is a releasable fastener (11) for securing an object (19) to a structure (13). The structure comprises a first surface (15), and a second surface (17) against which the object is secured. A portion of the fastener is adapted to pass through a hole (25) in the object and an aperture (18) in the structure to engage a portion of the structure. The fastener comprises a head (31), a shank (33) integral with and extending from the head, and a locking element (35). The locking element is rotatably positioned on the shank, and is adapted to operatively engage relative to the aperture such that during fastening of the fastener the locking element rotates between a first position and a second position such that the object and structure are clampable between the head and the locking element.
A releasable fastener for securing an object to a structure, the structure comprising a first surface, and a second surface against which the object is secured, a portion of the fastener being adapted to pass through the object and an aperture in the structure to engage a portion of the structure, the fastener comprising:
The releasable fastener according to claim 21 wherein the retaining means is in the form of a detent arrangement comprising a resilient projection extending from a surface of the locking member, whereby the projection engages the side of the aperture as the locking element passes between the first position to the second position.
A releasable fastener for securing an object to a structure, the structure comprising a first surface, and a second surface against which the object is secured, a portion of the fastener being adapted to pass through the object and a slotted aperture in the structure to engage a portion of the structure, the fastener comprising:
A releasable fastener for securing an object to a structure, the structure comprising a first surface, and a second surface against which the object is secured, a portion of the fastener being adapted to pass through an opening in the object and an aperture in the structure to engage a portion of the structure, the fastener comprising:
