Abstract
A panel fastener is produced by forming a casing blank with two coplanar sides unitarily connected together at one end by a bridge, bending the bridge to bring the two sides to a position parallel with each other about a portion of a hook, and fastening together the other ends of the two casing sides thereby rotatably capturing the hook.
Claims1
A method of producing a panel fastener which comprises the steps of forming a casing blank with two sides unitarily connected together at one end by a bridge that is formed with two holes along two parallel arcuate folds that straddle and traverse the bridge holes over a hook and cam assembly having a socket to bring the two casing blank sides into a substantially parallel position with their two casing side bosses axially aligned and rotatably capturing and journaling the hook and cam assembly socket with the assembly hook projecting out of the now formed casing.
