  • Patent number: 8635832
    Abstract: In an installation channel to be embedded into a curable construction material, e.g. concrete, having a support profile and preferably an attachment for attaching at least one add-on part to the installation channel, so that the outside of the support profile has a direct connection to the curable construction material at an embedding area, a potential fault block should be large so that large forces can be absorbed by the installation channel. A compressible insert is fastened to the outside of the support profile at the embedding area, so that part of the outside of the support profile is not in direct contact with the curable construction material at the embedding area.

  • Patent number: 8234832
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a cast-in channel having a channel body which forms a receiving space for receiving a connecting element used to fixedly attach a fastening element to the cast-in channel, the channel body further being provided with holes, the holes having connectors provided therein for fixedly attaching anchoring members to the channel body. The connectors are designed as rivets, whose fixing portions, which are inserted through the respective holes, are expanded so as to secure the rivets to the channel body, and which have an attachment for fixedly attaching the anchoring members to the channel body. The present invention also relates to a rivet nut for a cast-in channel.
