Abstract: An anchoring cartridge for a hardening multi-component composition on the basis of a resin hardening by the reaction of radicals has an inner cartridge element containing the resin component and fillers and an outer cartridge element containing the hardener component. To allow the anchoring rod to be put in position by hand by driving the anchoring rod in fully, without spurting out or running out occurring during the operation of putting the rod in position, and to enable fillers to be used in both components to increase the strength, the inside width of the annular space between the inner and outer cartridge elements corresponds at least to the wall thickness of a cartridge element. Further, the resin contains a thixotropic agent which increases the viscosity of the resin to such an extent that the filler parts are suspended in the resin.

Abstract: The cassette holder for the transverse storage of magnetic tape cassettes, compact cassettes and digital cassettes has locking members (10) provided for locking the tape reel hubs (17) of a compact cassette (19) on a slider element (2) on which the cassette is moved from a removal position to a storage position. The movement of the locking members (10) is triggered by an actuating device (3) having a control edge (4) which raises and locks the locking members via a first turning pin (9) arranged with the locking members (10) on a common shaft (11). The actuating device (3) is actuated by the standard thickened portion (18) on the compact cassette and the control edge (4) in question. The first turning pin (9) travels in a first recess (6) in the base plate (1) and the locking members (10) travel in additional recesses (20) in the base plate (1) to reduce the cassette holder height.

Abstract: Pull-out sliding unit for installation in a motor vehicle has a sliding unit that can be pulled out like a drawer, which may, for example, be constructed as a drinks holder or as a tray surface, provided for installation in a fascia of a motor vehicle. In order to be able to remove the sliding unit easily from the device and exchange it, a sliding block engages the sliding unit and disengages by two wedges onto which the sliding block slides when the sliding unit, after being unlocked, is pulled out of the device beyond its open position.

Abstract: The impact-type anchor (1) consists of a metal sleeve (2) provided with a throughgoing passage (3) tapering towards a leading end of the sleeve, into which bore an expander body (5) can be driven to expand the impact-type anchor. The throughgoing passage (3) has a rear cylindrical portion provided with an internal thread (4) as well as a tapering portion. So that the metal sleeve can be inexpensively manufactured while providing pull-out values that are the same as those of a metal sleeve made of solid material, the metal sleeve is stamped out of a sheet metal blank and then rolled up to form a sleeve which is joined at its seam. Furthermore, in order to form the tapering internal bore the expandable legs (7) have a first section (7a) that is bent inwards and a second section (7b) that is bent onto the outer face of the first section. The two sections (7a, 7b) resting one against the other are connected non-displaceably to one another, for example, by means of a punched point (9).

Abstract: The hardenable mortar composition consists of a bonding agent component including a hydraulic bonding agent, such as cement, gypsum or mortar, and a paste-forming agent consisting of a liquid solvent inert with respect to the hydraulic bonding agent, and an aqueous component kept separate from the bonding agent component until the two components are mixed to form a hardened mortar composition. The aqueous component includes water and a hydrophobic adsorbent or absorbent. The hydrophobic adsorbent or absorbent is included in the aqueous component to avoid the emergence of the paste-forming agent, which is at the very least unsightly, when the aqueous component is mixed with the bonding agent component. The hydrophobic adsorbent or absorbent binds the paste-forming agent which would otherwise escape during mixing and remains as an inert additive in the setting mortar composition, without reducing the hardness thereof.

Abstract: An installation apparatus for an expansible anchor has a clamping piston guided in an expansion piston, both of which are perated by compressed air. The clamping piston has a clamping cone for a collet chuck. It slides on the collet chuck, which is fixed in the housing, and clamps a shank of the expansible anchor. The expansion piston displaces an expansible sleeve on the shank of the expansible anchor by an expansion plate which is screwed to the expansion piston and has a hole at its center, through which the shank of the expansible anchor projects into the collet chuck. The apparatus has the advantage of a closed force path as the expansible anchor is expanded, so that the anchor does not need to be steadied by a work-piece. In this manner, slabs or tiles having a small residual wall thickness at the bottom of a drilled hole are prevented from being damaged as the expansible anchor is installed.

Abstract: A holding device to receive a drink container is provided for installation in a horizontal surface, for example a central console of a motor vehicle. In order to be able to accommodate the holding device in a small installation space and to recess it completely in its installation surface, the invention proposes a pivot arm which, after being unlocked, pivots, actuated by a spring, from a recumbent position into an upright position and thereby displaces a displaceable, upright arm upwards into a holding position. In order, with a narrow installation space, to engage securely around an inserted drink container, the holding device further has holding wings which, during the displacement of the displaceable arm into the holding position pivot out laterally.

Abstract: A holder for drink containers in a motor vehicle has a slider member that can be pulled out and on which are mounted pivot arms which, when pulled out, pivot laterally outward, and which, with cut-away portions in the slider member, form insertion openings for drink containers, and has supports which pivot downwards when the slider member is pulled out. In order to support securely drink containers of different sizes which are inserted, the supports are pivoted outward, forcibly controlled, by the pivot arms through half the pivot angle of the pivot arms.

The substance is inert towards the metal and has a thermal stability of at least 900.degree. C. In particular, ceramic solid materials or fillers are suitable substances.

Abstract: An anchor bolt to be anchored by an explosive charge in a blind bore in a solid material, in particular a rock face or concrete, has a deformation chamber containing the explosive charge. To achieve inexpensive manufacture of the anchor bolt, simple mounting and high withdrawal values of the anchor bolt to be anchored, the deformation chamber open towards the leading end of the anchor bolt is closed by a stopper. A striking pin projecting beyond the leading end of the anchor bolt is inserted and guided in the stopper, so that as the rear end of the anchor bolt is hit the striking pin contacts an ignition capsule arranged between the stopper and the explosive charge.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing an expansible anchor comprises the steps of forming one part as a partially slotted expansible sleeve composed of corrosion-resistant steel and anchorable in a building component, forming another part as an expander body composed of corrosion-resistant steel and arranged to be driven into the expansible sleeve so as to anchor the expansible sleeve in the building component, enriching one of the parts with interstitially dissolved, non-metallic alloying constituents selected from the group consisting of carbon, nitrogen and boron, and ageing by heat treating so as to precipitate the alloying constituents in the form selected from the group consisting of carbides, nitrides and borides, respectively, to achieve increased hardness.

Abstract: An anchor bolt has locking elements arranged over a part of the outer surface and formed as radially projecting lugs which are spaced circumferentially and axially from one another. Therefore a good mixing of a compound mass and reduction of the driving-in resistance is obtained. Therefore the outer diameter measured over the lugs of the anchor bolt can be matched approximately to the diameter of the drilled hole. Simple and inexpensive manufacture of the anchor bolt can be provided by powdered metal injection molding method using a system of binders with subsequent removal of the binders and sintering.
