Creating a shape with movement

From where I drag the component to where it started I want to create a shape. The shape should be flat at the top but rounded at the sides because I would like to do it with the semi circles, is there a way to do this without copy and pasting over and over. (Kind of off topic, but does anyone know what the twist lock at the bottom of some compartments is called. It sometimes has a divot for a coin and  two pieces of plastic sticking out on either end and when you twist it you can pull it out of the hole because the hole has a hole for the tiny pieces of plastic.)

Good day @5x8is45,

 

I'm not entirely sure that I understand your question.
Have you tried the circular pattern feature with the object type set to faces or features?

I presume you want to add material between the centre line of each semi circle.

 

Draw a line from the centre of the plate, to the apex of the small circles, connect the 2 end points with a concentric arc, and Extrude Join the pie shape.

 

Might help.....
