ABSTRACT:
A self-aligning, self-retracting quarter-turn fastener assembly in which one of two members to be joined rotatably supports the fastener and is provided with an elongated recess into which a crosspin intermediate the ends of the fastener shaft is urged by a spring when the fastener is in such a relative rotary position that the crosspin is aligned with an elongated slot in the member which carries the fastener receptacle. The portion of the fastener shaft extending beyond the crosspin acts as a pilot as the members are brought into cooperative relationship to ensure proper relative positioning of the members. The assembly has special utility in an installation in which a multiplicity of fastener assemblies are used.
