Abstract
Abstract In order to produce conical undercutting of the bore when the anchoring bolt is driven into a previously bored hole with a percussion drill, the insertion end of the bolt has a slot into which the thin end of a wedge is inserted. Hard metal pegs set in radial bores near the insertion end of the bolt at diametrically opposite places on the periphery of the bolt protrude slightly and, as the bolt is driven into place, the wedge spreads its insertion end and causes the hard metal pegs to undercut the walls of the bore more and more as the bolt is set in place. A conical undercutting of the bar thus results.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim
167 words
Anchoring bolt having a smooth shaft portion (3) interposed between and integral with a connection portion (2) and an insertion portion (4) for insertion, by drilling, into a cylindrical bore (21) and for conically undercutting the walls of said bore after insertion, said insertion portion extending to an end of the bolt and having, in accordance with the invention: at least two diametrically opposite inserts (30) set in radially running bores (13,32) of said insertion portion of said bolt near said end of said bolt and of said insertion portion, said inserts protruding beyond the periphery of said insertion portion of said bolt; a diametrical slot (10) extending axially into said insertion portion of said bolt from said end thereof at the end of said bolt, and an axially displaceable elongated spreading wedge (13) having a tapered-down end inserted in said slot of said insertion portion of said bolt and having a width that does not exceed the outer diameter of said insertion portion of said bolt.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
167 words
Anchoring bolt having a smooth shaft portion (3) interposed between and integral with a connection portion (2) and an insertion portion (4) for insertion, by drilling, into a cylindrical bore (21) and for conically undercutting the walls of said bore after insertion, said insertion portion extending to an end of the bolt and having, in accordance with the invention: at least two diametrically opposite inserts (30) set in radially running bores (13,32) of said insertion portion of said bolt near said end of said bolt and of said insertion portion, said inserts protruding beyond the periphery of said insertion portion of said bolt; a diametrical slot (10) extending axially into said insertion portion of said bolt from said end thereof at the end of said bolt, and an axially displaceable elongated spreading wedge (13) having a tapered-down end inserted in said slot of said insertion portion of said bolt and having a width that does not exceed the outer diameter of said insertion portion of said bolt.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
43 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 1, wherein said spreading wedge (13) has a stem (14) at said tapered-down end of said wedge, said stem having a uniform thickness, between parallel running surfaces (15, 16), which thickness is equal to width of said slot.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 1, wherein the width of said spreading wedge (13) is narrower than the outer diameter of said insertion portion (4) of said bolt.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
42 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 1, wherein said wedge (13) has a wide-angled point (19) at its thickest end, which end and point are directed away from the insertion portion (4) of said bolt when said wedge is inserted in said slot.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
30 words
Anchoring bolt according to said external claim 2, wherein the overall length of said spreading wedge (13) and said stem (14) thereof corresponds to the length of the slot (10).
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
32 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 1, wherein said insertion portion (4) of said bolt has a external profiling (9) which forms a shoulder (28) at its junction with said smooth shaft portion.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
28 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 6, characterized in that the length of said external profiling (9) amounts to at least 2/3 of the length of said slot (10).
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
17 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 1, wherein said inserts (30) are hard metal pegs of round profile.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
24 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 8, wherein said bores are blind bores (31) in each of which a hard metal peg (30) is fastened.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
30 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 8, wherein said bores (32) extend radially right through to said slot (10) and said hard metal pegs (30) are guided and radially shiftable therein.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
46 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 10, wherein said spreading wedge (13) has a cavity (33, 34) at the forward end of each of the wedge surfaces (17, 18), each said cavity having a width at least equal to the diameter of said hard metal pegs (30).
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
28 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 11, wherein said cavities (33, 34) have lateral contours which form a right angle with wedging surfaces (17, 18) of said wedge (13).
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
21 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 12, wherein said cavities are shoulders (33) at the front end of the spreading wedge (13).
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
23 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 12, wherein said cavities are in each case grooves (34) running transverse to the wedge surfaces (17, 18).
Claim 16
Dependent Claim
44 words
Anchoring bolt according to claim 1, wherein said stem (14) at the tapered-down end of said wedge (13) has shoulders (35) on said respective parallel surfaces (15,16) thereof at the end of said parallel surfaces adjoining wedging surfaces (17, 18) of said wedge (13).
