Abstract
Abstract An anchoring bolt (1), which can produce a conical undercut by rotation in a cylindrical hole and serves simultaneously as a securing element has a connection portion (2), a shaft (4) and an insertion portion (5). The insertion portion (5) has an axially extending slot (6) forming two spreadable branches (8,9), into which slot a movable spreading wedge (18) can be driven in with its tapered end. The branches (8, 9) are each provided with drillings (14, 15) receiving hard metal pins (16, 17) of which the front edges, in the rotation direction, are more protuberant than the rear edges so as to form a clearance angle α.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
213 words
Anchoring bolt for rotatable insertion into a cylindrical bore and capable of conically undercutting said bore and securing itself in the undercut bore, comprising a shaft, a connection portion extending from said shaft at one end thereof for connections to the bolt outside of the bore in which the bolt may be set, an insertion portion extending from said shaft at the other end thereof for insertion in a bore along with at least part of said shaft, said insertion portion having a slot running axially and separating said insertion portion into two branches capable of being spread apart from each other, a spreading wedge having its tapered-down end extending into said slot, and a plurality of protuberant inserts near the free end of said insertion portion projecting from said insertion portion; said inserts (16,17) being set in the end face (11,12) of said insertion portion (5) and respectively having median lines in the direction of projection from said end face which are obliquely inclined to the direction of the longitudinal axis of said insertion portion and of said shaft, and the protuberant ends of said inserts having leading edge portions (29) in the direction of rotation of said bolt, which project further from said insertion portion than their trailing edge portions (31).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
213 words
Anchoring bolt for rotatable insertion into a cylindrical bore and capable of conically undercutting said bore and securing itself in the undercut bore, comprising a shaft, a connection portion extending from said shaft at one end thereof for connections to the bolt outside of the bore in which the bolt may be set, an insertion portion extending from said shaft at the other end thereof for insertion in a bore along with at least part of said shaft, said insertion portion having a slot running axially and separating said insertion portion into two branches capable of being spread apart from each other, a spreading wedge having its tapered-down end extending into said slot, and a plurality of protuberant inserts near the free end of said insertion portion projecting from said insertion portion; said inserts (16,17) being set in the end face (11,12) of said insertion portion (5) and respectively having median lines in the direction of projection from said end face which are obliquely inclined to the direction of the longitudinal axis of said insertion portion and of said shaft, and the protuberant ends of said inserts having leading edge portions (29) in the direction of rotation of said bolt, which project further from said insertion portion than their trailing edge portions (31).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
71 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 1, in which said inserts are cylindrical hard metal pins (16,17) of circular cross-section and are seated in bores running directions at an inclination angle of about 60° with the direction of said longitudinal axis of said insertion portion, being held in said bores only by an adhesive used to hold them in place before the bore is placed in a hole for setting it therein.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
52 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 1, in which said end face of said insertion portion has the configuration of a cone frustum traversed by said slot passing through the cone axis and divided into two parts by said slot, and in which said inserts project from the conical surface of said frustum.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
54 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 2, in which said end face of said insertion portion has the configuration of a cone frustum traversed by said slot passing through the cone axis and divided into two parts by said slot, and in which said hard metal pins project from the conical surface of said frustum.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
33 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 1, in which said inserts are even in number and half of them are set in each of said branches of said insertion portion separated by said slot.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
82 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 1 in which said inserts are two in number, one of them being set in each of said branches of said insertion portion, their median lines in the directions in which they project from said branches lying in parallel planes respectively offset by the same spacing (x) in opposite directions from the longitudinal axis of said insertion portion, said planes being parallel to a plane passing through said axis and extending at right angles to said slot.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
85 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 2 in which said hard metal pins are two in number, located on opposite sides of said slot, have respective longitudinal axes which are inclined at about 60° to the direction of the axis of said insertion portion and which lie in parallel planes respectively offset by the same spacing (x) in opposite directions from said insertion portion axis, said planes being parallel to a plane passing through said insertion portion axis and extending at right angles to said slot.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
96 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 3 in which there are two said inserts, one projecting from the conical surface of each division of said cone frustum produced by said slot opposite sides of the slot, said inserts being set in to said cone frustum divisions with their median lines in their respective directions of projection lying in parallel planes respectively offset by the same spacing (x) in opposite directions from the longitudinal axis of said insertion portion, said planes being parallel to a plane passing through said axis and extending at right angles to said slot.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
100 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 4, in which there are two said hard metal pins, one projecting from the conical surface of each division of said cone frustum produced by said slot on opposite sides of the slot, having respective longitudinal axes which are obliquely inclined at about 60° to the direction of the axis of said insertion portion and lie in parallel planes respectively offset by the same spacing (x) in opposite directions from said insertion portion axis, said planes being parallel to a plane passing through said insertion portion axis and extending at right angles to said slot.
