  • Publication number: 20020132946
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of water soluble or water dispersible polymers containing carboxyl groups, optionally in latent form, and side-chains of general formula (I) -X-Y-[-O-(-Alk-O) n -R] k as additives in mineral building materials, wherein X, Y, Alk, R, n and k have the meanings cited in claim 1. Said polymers can be obtained by polymerizing ethylenically unsaturated monomers in the presence of compounds containing phosphorus and, optionally, by additional polymer-analogous transformation. The invention further relates to the production of said polymers and the use thereof. Also described are polymers, which can be obtained by polymerizing aromatic vinyl compounds, olefins, cycloolefins and/or dienes, as D monomers and anhydrides of ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acids as E monomers and which can be used both as parent compounds for the above-mentioned polymers and as additives for mineral building materials.

  • Publication number: 20020020264
    Abstract: An electric power tool has a motor-driven circular tool that can be clamped by means of a clamping device. A mechanical braking device (2) serves to brake the tool. A safety element (4) prevents improper handling of the electric power tool. In a safety position, the safety element (4) prevents the motor from being turned on and activates the braking device (2). In a release position, the safety element (4) allows the motor to be turned on and the braking device (12) is released. An additional locking mechanism prevents that a clamping lever, needed to actuate the clamping device, can be actuated in the clamped state in the safety position. In the release position of the safety element, the locking mechanism is unlocked.

  • Patent number: 6012358
    Abstract: A tool for setting self-cutting undercut anchors (6) in boreholes (B) in a receiving material (G) includes anchors (6) formed of an axially extending anchor rod (7) with a conically shaped surface at a leading end of the rod widening in the setting direction, and an axially extending rotatable sleeve (9) laterally enclosing the anchor rod and which is axially displaceable against the conically shaped surface for effecting radially outward spreading of cutting tabs located at the leading end of the sleeve. The cutting tabs form an undercut (U) in the inner surface of the borehole (B) as the sleeve is rotated. The tool has a rotatable propelling part (2) for the sleeve (9) of the undercut anchor (6) and a trailing end (3) of the propelling part is arranged for insertion into a chuck of a rotary hammer drill. The propelling part (2) cooperates with a support element (4) arranged to be supported by the surface of the receiving material (G) in which the borehole (B) is formed.
