A patent application by the inventor C ochrane, Jason (Melbourne, AU), filed on March 13, 2023, was made available onli ne on September 19, 2024, according to news reporting originating from Washingto n, D.C., by NewsRx correspondents. This patent application has not been assigned to a company or institution. The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied by the inventors: "Nut plates may be utilized within a structure t o secure two components of the structure to one another. Nut plates historically have been manually installed while held in place during an assembly process in which the two components are secured to one another. While effective, this proce ss is labor-intensive. The overall shape of the nut plates makes it difficult to reliably and reproducibly position the nut plates at a desired location during the assembly process. Thus, there exists a need for nut plate grippers, for end effectors that include the nut plate grippers, for robots that include the end e ffectors, for installation systems that include the robots, and/or for related m ethods."
