Abstract: A hybrid drop-in anchor with an expansion sleeve, a split base region of an anchor body and a setting plug. The sleeve surrounds an annular body recess of the body, with a clip portion extending around an annular recess. Clip segments extend from the arcuate portion, each having a proximal portion with an original thickness and a distal portion having at least one projection, extending therefrom. The projection extends from the outer surface without corresponding cavity on an inner surface, with a projection of total thickness greater than the original thickness. After the setting plug is driven, and the threaded male member is inserted and tightened, pulling movement of the anchor moves the expansion sleeve baseward, such that each segment rides outwardly on the tapered portion, providing radial expansion of the anchor and locking, wedging engagement of each segment projection with wall surfaces with enhanced pull-out resistance.

Abstract: A hybrid drop-in anchor includes an expansion sleeve. A split base region of the anchor body has a setting plug to be driven baseward by setting tool for preliminary setting in a borehole. The sleeve resiliently surrounds an external annular body recess of the body above a tapered base region portion, and has a clip arcuate portion extending at least most of the periphery around the external annular recess. Clip segments extend baseward from the arcuate portion. Each segment has proximal portion having a segment intrinsic radial thickness and includes a distal portion having at least one intrinsic projection, namely a boss, standing radially outwardly from the outer surface of the distal portion. The boss is raised from the outer surface of the distal portion without there being a corresponding cavity of said blank on an inner surface of the distal portion, to provide a projection of thickened total depth greater than the segment intrinsic radial thickness.
