Abstract
Abstract An anchor rod for use as a composite anchor is secured in a receiving borehole by one of a hardenable or curable organic and inorganic mortar mass. The anchor rod has a means (3) at a trailing end region (2) for engaging a load. The anchor rod has an anchoring region (4) insertable into the receiving borehole and has a thread-like profiling (5) for interaction with the mortar mass injected into the receiving borehole. The thread-like profiling is a coarse screw thread (5) and has a thread pitch (s) which reduces in the axial direction from the leading end toward the trailing end of the anchor rod (1).

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
148 words
An anchor rod for use in a composite anchor where the anchor rod is inserted into a borehole in an anchorage base material containing at least one of an organic and inorganic mortar mass in the borehole, wherein the anchor rod comprises an axially extending rod having a leading end inserted first into the borehole and a trailing end, said rod has an axially extending anchoring region (4) with a thread-like profiling (5) extending axially from the leading end towards the trailing end on an outer surface thereof arranged to interact with the mortar mass in the borehole, means for engaging a load on a trailing end region (2) extending axially from the trailing end towards said anchoring region (4), said thread-like profiling (5) comprises a coarse screw thread having thread pitches (s) diminishing in the axial direction from said leading end to said trailing end region (2).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
148 words
An anchor rod for use in a composite anchor where the anchor rod is inserted into a borehole in an anchorage base material containing at least one of an organic and inorganic mortar mass in the borehole, wherein the anchor rod comprises an axially extending rod having a leading end inserted first into the borehole and a trailing end, said rod has an axially extending anchoring region (4) with a thread-like profiling (5) extending axially from the leading end towards the trailing end on an outer surface thereof arranged to interact with the mortar mass in the borehole, means for engaging a load on a trailing end region (2) extending axially from the trailing end towards said anchoring region (4), said thread-like profiling (5) comprises a coarse screw thread having thread pitches (s) diminishing in the axial direction from said leading end to said trailing end region (2).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
42 words
An anchor rod, as set forth in claim 1 wherein said thread pitches (s) of said coarse screw thread (5) diminish in sections extending one after the other in the axial direction of said anchor rod (1) towards the trailing end thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
An anchor rod, as set forth in claim 1, wherein said thread pitch (s) diminishes continuously from a leading end of said anchoring region to said trailing end region (2).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
38 words
An anchor rod, as set forth in one of claims 1-3, wherein said thread pitch (s) of said coarse screw thread (5) in an axially extending zone adjacent to said trailing end region is approximately equal to 0.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
38 words
An anchor rod, as set forth in one of claims 1-3, wherein said coarse screw thread (5) has a radial thread depth (t) diminishing from a leading end of said anchoring region towards said trailing end region (2).
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
20 words
An anchor rod, as set forth in claim 5, wherein said radial thread depth (t) diminishes in axially extending sections.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
50 words
An anchor rod, as set forth in claim 5, wherein said radial thread depth (t) diminishes continuously from a leading end (6) of said anchoring region (4) towards said trailing end region (2) and is approximately equal to 0 in a zone (43) adjacent to the trailing end section (2).
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
42 words
An anchor rod, as set forth in one of claims 1-3, wherein said anchor rod has a head part (7) extending axially from a leading end (6) of said anchoring region (4) and said head part (7) has a pointed tip (8).
