This invention relates to an anchoring device, more especially but not exclusively for use in the construction of concrete composite girders, comprising a tubular sleeve having an end wall at one end and containing a fastener by which the sleeve may be secured to receiving material, the end wall of the sleeve having a central aperture, and the fastener being of nail-like form comprising a shank having a point at one end and a head at the other.
As used herein, the term «concrete composite girder» means a beam whose upper chord consists of a reinforced concrete girder and whose lower chord consists of steel section or lattice griders So that the entire movement of inertia of the beam can be utilised, a shearproof connection between the upper chord and the lower chord is necessary.
To produce this connection it is known to fasten anchoring devices to the lower chord, (that is to say, on the steel section or lattice girder) in order thereby to provide anchorages in the concrete girder that is subsequently cast thereon Since changes in length occur between the upper chord and the lower chord when the concrete composite girder is under load, the anchoring devices must, above all, be able to absorb shear loads, in order to guarantee the anchorage.
For this purpose, it is known, for example to weld rolled sections, or round bolts, onto the steel section or lattice girder While such elements fulfil their purpose from the point of view of the shear loads that are to be absorbed, they are problematical from the point of view of the fastening on the steel section or lattice girder Problems arise, more especially, from the fact that the 50 steel section or lattice girders are usually covered with a layer intended to provide protection against corrosion, which has a disadvantageous effect on the security of the welded joint Even if the welding posi 55 tions are properly cleaned (which is disadvantageous from the point of view of expenditure of time) the quality of the welded joints cannot be substantially improved, since environmental moisture, arising for 60 example from the weather, in which the welded joints have to be produced, has a negative effect.
To obviate these problems, attempts have been made to use, as the anchoring devices, 65 fasteners driven by means of explosivepowered fastener-driving tools into the steel section or lattice girders The use of such anchoring devices has not proved its worth, since the fasteners usable for this purpose 70 are not a match for the shearing bending loads involved and break off, which leads to failure of the connection between the upper chord and the lower chord To get round this disadvantage, specially-designed 75 elements have become known, which elements are fastened to the steel sections or lattice girders by means for fasteners driven in using explosive-powered fastener driving tools These elements serve to absorb bend 80 ing loads The elements used hitherto for this purpose are relatively complicated in their construction and therefore cannot contribute substantially to economical production of concrete composite girders 85 In the search for economically-producible elements as anchoring devices which can be fastened by means of fasteners which can be driven by means of explosive-powered fastener-driving tools, and which can more 90 PATENT SPECIFICATION
1 564 759 1 564 759 over cope with the bending loads which occur in practice, one has encountered cuplike sleeves, such as are, for example, fastened to ceilings or walls in order to serve for the reception of wires or the like Such cups, as are known for example from United States Patent No 3455199, could not, however, be employed directly for the purposes discussed herein but would have to be modified considerably, more especially with respect to dimensions such as sleeve length, wall thickness and the like The sleeve of the said, having a greater mass relative to known sleeves, cannot be fastened in conventional manner, by the fastener being inserted in the base of the sleeeve and the two parts forming together a unitary structure to which the driving tool can be applied If attempt is made at driving by means of a fastener-driving tool of the kind having a percussion-piston or plunger, the energy of the piston encountering the fastener is reduced by reason of impact effects, in such a way that adequate driving-in of the fastener cannot be guaranteed Moreover, the sudden acceleration of the sleeve (which has a not inconsiderable mass) can lead to tearing-out of the base of the sleeve If, instead of a percussion piston or plunger tool, a thrust piston tool is used, recoil of the driving tool is intolerably high by virtue of the large mass, to be accelerated, of the unit consisting of the sleeve and the fastener.
The problem underlying the invention is to provide an economically-producible anchoring device which can be fastened by means of a fastener which can be driven by means of an explosive-powered fastenerdriving tool, and which satisfies load-absorbing and transmitting requirements, more especially when used in the construction of concrete composite girders.
In accordance with the invention, the problem is solved by the provision of an anchoring device, for use, for example, in the construction of composite concrete girders, comprising a tubular sleeve having an end wall at one end and containing a fastener by which the sleeve may be secured to receiving material, the end wall of the sleeve having an aperture, and the fastener being of nail-like form comprising a shank having a point at one end and a head at the other, characterised in that the fastener is located in the sleeve at a spacing from the said end wall, by the head, and a washer on the shank, being a snug fit in the sleeve, with the pointed end directed toward the aperture, and with the head directed towards the other end of the sleeve, whereby the fastener may be driven, for instance by a fastener-driving tool, axially of the sleeve, whilst being guided by the head and the washer, to penetrate and project through the aperture.
Because in the arrangement in accordance with the invention the fastener is located in the sleeve, the possibility exists of utilising the advantageous properties of a plun 70 ger or piston-type fastener-driving tool having a barrel, without the sleeve and the fastener having to be fed individually and separately to the tool The fastener-driving tool used for this purpose merely has to 75 have, in the front end of the barrel, a recess whose diameter corresponds to the diameter of the sleeve The length of the recess can be approximately equal to the length of the sleeve or slightly shorter than 80 the sleeve.
Upon the driving tool being offered to the receiving material, i e onto the steel section or lattice girder, the sleeve is brought into position abutting the receiving material Ac 85 cordingly, the sleeve experiences no acceleration during the driving-in operation; only the fastener is driven by the piston of the driving tool, being displaced over the free length of travel until it encounters and en 90 ters the receiving material, the sleeve serving, during this movement, as a guide for the fastener Thus the full kinetic energy of the piston of the driving tool is available for driving the fastener into the receiving 95 material Since the base of the sleeve already abuts the receiving material, impingement of the fastener’s head, at the conclusion of the driving operation, cannot lead to tearing-out or damaging of the 100 end wall of the sleeve.
In order to counteract energy losses, arising from impact of the piston against the fastener, the fastener is preferably arranged in the end of the sleeve which is remote 105 from the end wall.
Guidance of the fastener in the sleeve prior to its penetration into the receiving material, occurs at two locations which are disposed at an axial spacing from one an 110 other and are provided respectively by the head and the washer which, by being a snug fit in the sleeve, also ensure retention of the fastener in the sleeve Either a conventional steel washer or preferably a plas 115 tics washer can be used as the washer The use of a plastics washer has the advantage that this can be formed with elastic tabs (or tongues or lugs) on its periphery, so that secure retention of the fastener within 120 the sleeve is guaranteed Moreover, a plastics washer will spring away or disintegrate into very small fragments upon being impacted by the fastener’s head, so that the fastener can penetrate, over substantially 125 the entire length of its shank, into the receiving material, and the washer does not have any significant hindering effect.
In accordance with a development of the invention, the fastener has a head whose 130 1 564 759 diameter is large in comparison with the diameter of the shank and the transitional region between the shank and the head is designed as a curve which runs out away from the shank, with an increasingly severe curvature, into the head A fastener which is designed in this way also ensures secure connection even when the driving-in energy has not been optimally co-ordinated relative to the receiving material More especially in the event of there being excess energy, the fastener has optimum deformation behaviour, since the excess energy is converted into work done in deformation at the head, while the widening shank region ensures the fastening.
A widening, preferably conical in design and opening outwardly, of the aperture in the base of the sleeve, may be provided for reception of receiving material displaced by the driving-in of the fastener.
In this way, a very positive connection is achieved between the sleeve and the receiving material, i e steel section or lattice girder, so that transverse or bending forces can be absorbed and transmitted by the sleeve without shear stresses acting on the fastener.
Preferably the wall thickness of the end wall of the sleeve is somewhat greater than the wall thickness of the cylindrical wall of the sleeve In a preferred embodiment, the thickness of the end wall is about 1 5 to 2 5 times the wall thickness of the cylindrical wall of the sleeve.
The invention will be described further, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:Fig 1 is a sectional elevation of a preferred embodiment of the anchoring device of the invention; Fig 2 is a view similar to Fig 1, but showing the anchoring device having been introduced into an explosive-powered fastener-driving tool and the tool offered to receiving material ready for fixing the anchoring device thereto, and Fig 3 is a view similar to Figs 1 and 2, but showing the anchoring device fixed in place.
As shown in Fig 1 the illustrated anchoring device comprises essentially a sleeve 1 and a fastener 2 of nail-like configuration.
The fastener 2 is guided by means of its head 3 and a washer 4 within the sleeve 1.
For locating the fastener 2 in the sleeve 1, the washer 4, which may for example be of a plastics material, has retaining tabs 5 at intervals around its periphery The transition between shank 6 and the head 3 of the fastener 2 is designated as a curve 7 which, has an increasingly severe curvature from the shank 6 towards the head 3 On its outer or top end, the head 3 has a cylindrical protuberance or boss 8 for engagement by a driving piston of a fastenerdriviag tool, as will be described later.
The sleeve 2 has, at one end, an end wall 9 in which is an aperture 10 which can be penetrated by the shank 6 of the fastener 2 70 Outwardly, the aperture 10 has a conical widening 11.
Fig 2 illustrates the anchoring device of Fig 1 fitted into an explosive-powered fastener-driving tool, ready for being secured 75 to appropriate receiving material This figure shows only a barrel 12 and the front part of a driving piston or plunger 13 of the driving tool Such tools are well known and accordingly do not need to be illustrated in 80 detail Provided in the barrel 12 is a recess 17 which serves to receive the anchoring device consisting of the sleeve 1 and the fastener 2 The piston or plunger 13 has a depression 14 in its front end face, for loca 85 tion therein of the protuberance or boss 8 on the fastener 2.
As illustrated in Fig 2, prior to the fastening of the anchoring device, the tool is positioned so that the sleeve 1 stands on 90 the receiving material 15, which may be a steel section or lattice girder of a concrete composite girder Upon operation of the tool, the piston 13, propelled by explosive power, drives only the fastener 2 which 95 moves forwardly axially within the sleeve 1, the shank 6 being caused to enter and penetrate the aperture 10 and to penetrate into the receiving material 15 During this operation the sleeve 1 remains still relative 100 to both the barrel 12 and the receiving material 15.
The fastened anchoring device is shown in Fig 3 The fastener 2 has been driven fully into the receiving material 15, the 105 plastics washer 4 (shown in Figs 1 and 2) having disintegrated into small fragments so as to afford snug and close engagement of the head 3 against the base 9 Furthermore, Fig 3 illustrates how a part 16 of the re 110 ceiving material 15 has been caused to flow upwards and has penetrated into the recess 11 in the sleeve 1, thereby to achieve a very firm positive connection, which will absorb transverse or bending forces, between 115 the sleeve I and the receiving material 15.
