ABSTRACT:
Track fastener apparatus for use in anchoring seats or cargo with a locking track that has a slot with spaced cut-out portions extending through the upper surface of the locking track from one side to the opposite side. The track fastener apparatus includes a housing and two track studs that are secured to the underside of the housing whose end portions are adapted to be received by the spaced cut-out portions. The track studs each have a shank portion that is adapted to slide within the slot in the locking track. The track fastener apparatus also includes a locking screw that has threads which are received by the threads of an aperture in the central portion of the housing and a track wedge member connected to the lower end portion of the locking screw which is shaped to have a portion thereof fit within the cut-out portions and another adjacent flange portion that rests upon the surface of the upper surface of the locking track that is adjacent to the cut-out portions when the locking screw is in its downward or locked position. Two nonmetallic track slide members are located on the underside of the housing so that these members will rest upon the upper surface of the locking track when the track fastener apparatus is located on the locking track. The track fastener apparatus also has features that indicate when it is in its unlocked condition.
