An arrangement as defined in claim 1, wherein said flexible container has an inner surface which is coated by a material which is resistant to the adhesive substance.

Claim 9

Dependent Claim 39 words

An arrangement as defined in claim 1, wherein said flexible container has a plurality of perforations in the region of said inlet closure so as to facilitate separation of the latter from the remainder portion of said flexible container.

Claim 10

Dependent Claim 66 words

An arrangement as defined in claim 1, and further comprising means for inserting said mounting element into and rotating the same in the mounting hole after filling the latter by the adhesive substance so as to uniformly mix the adhesive substance by said mounting element, said inserting and rotating means including a receiving element arranged to transmit torque from a drilling machine to said mounting element.

Claim 11

Dependent Claim 54 words

An arrangement as defined in claim 10, wherein said mounting element has a leading end portion and a trailing end portion as considered in the direction of insertion, said receiving element being provided with a receiving hole having a reducing cross section and arranged to receive said trailing end portion of said mounting element.

Claim 12

Dependent Claim 82 words

An arrangement as defined in claim 10, particularly in the mounting hole produced by a drilling tool, wherein said receiving element has a leading and section in which said receiving hole is provided and a trailing end section opposite to said leading end section thereof, said trailing end section of said receiving element having a further hole for receiving the drilling tool; and further comprising means for transmitting torque from the drilling tool to said trailing end section of said receiving element.

Claim 13

Dependent Claim 88 words

An arrangement as defined in claim 11, wherein the drilling tool has drilling lamellas, said receiving element being elongated, said further hole for receiving the drilling tool being bounded by a wall having two oppositely located slots which extend in the direction of elongation of said receiving element and arranged so that the drilling lamellas can engage in said oppositely located slots so as to form together with the latter said means for transmitting torque from the drilling tool to said trailing end section of said receiving element.

Claim 14

Dependent Claim 57 words

An arrangement as defined in claim 1, wherein said mounting element is a dowel sleeve having a closed leading end and an inner hole provided with inner formation for screwing of a mounting screw into said inner hole, said dowel sleeve having outer formation with an outer dimension substantially corresponding to the diameter of the mounting hole.

Claim 15

Dependent Claim 15 words

An arrangement as defined in claim 13, wherein said inner formation is an inner thread.

Claim 16

Dependent Claim 23 words

An arrangement as defined in claim 13, wherein said dowel sleeve has a longitudinal axis, said inner formation being longitudinally extending inner ribs.

Claim 17
