  • Publication number: 20140356077
    Abstract: A wedge anchor bolt having a screw member, a wedge member, and a cage member. The bolt is anchored into a drilled hole by wedging the wedge member in the end of the cage member by turning the screw member, with the result being that the wedge member becomes stuck in the cage member. For ejecting the wedge member from the cavity the screw member includes at least one of (1) one or more depressed portions, and (2) one or more projecting portions, defining a step, and the cage member includes one or more corresponding step-engaging portions for making an interference contact with the step, so that further withdrawal of the threads ceases to withdraw the threads relative to the cage member while continuing to withdraw the threads relative to the wedge member, thereby forcing the wedge member distally relative to the cavity.

  • Patent number: 8839591
    Abstract: A concrete anchor point system provides for an anchor point, a receptacle for embedding into a concrete structure for removably receiving the anchor point, and a tool for remotely installing the anchor point in the structure, or removing the anchor point from the structure. The receptacle is preferably tapered, and an anchoring end of the anchor point is preferably tapered to match.

  • Patent number: 8646575
    Abstract: A beam anchor. The beam anchor includes an elongate cross-member, a lanyard attachment structure attached to the cross-member, a pair of first and second spaced apart beam capturing members attached to the cross-member. Either or both capturing members may have a locking mechanism that is cantilevered from the capturing member, and the lanyard attachment structure may have a lanyard attachment ring connector that is capable of rotating about the cross-member but that is constrained to a fixed position along the cross-member by use of a ring or partial ring structure attached to the cross-member that extends through a slot in the lanyard attachment ring connector.
