Patent number: 8613572Abstract: A chemical anchoring assembly useful for fast application of a driving tool into a borehole includes an elongated tube having a first end and a second end, a quantity of chemical anchoring material within the elongated tube, and a vent at the second end of the elongated tube. As an anchor pin is driven through the elongated tube and into the borehole, forcing the chemical anchoring material into the borehole, some of the pressure caused by compression of the chemical anchoring material is released into the vent, allowing easier driving of the anchor pin.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2011Date of Patent: December 24, 2013Assignee: Illinois Tool Works Inc.Inventors: William Dubon, Robert L. Turck, Owen J. McGarel, Andrew J. Rourke, Deepak H. Mehta, Jeffrey M. Stupar, Stanley J. Cabaj, Robert G. Kobetsky, John R. Wolfe

Patent number: 8517641Abstract: An anchoring adhesive combination includes a slug or package of chemical anchoring adhesive having a proximal end and a distal end and a rod which can be a penetrator having a pointed proximal end, and open distal end, and a threaded or corrugated outer surface. The pointed proximal end of the penetrator is connected to the distal end of the slug or package of chemical anchoring adhesive so that the pointed proximal end is at least partially surrounded by chemical anchoring adhesive. The open distal end of the penetrator receives a proximal end of an anchor pin to form a combination of anchor pin, penetrator and slug or package of anchoring adhesive in series.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2009Date of Patent: August 27, 2013Assignee: Illinois Tool Works Inc.Inventors: William Dubon, Stanley J.

Publication number: 20110167754Abstract: A method of designing a construction assembly including an anchor fastener mounted in a concrete substrate is provided. The method includes the steps of determining a minimum required load capacity for the construction assembly, providing a graph that includes plots of load capacity versus embedment depth for one or more design parameters of interest, using the graph to select design parameters which result in a construction assembly load capacity at least as high as the minimum required load capacity, and using the selected design parameters to build the construction assembly. The graph may be generated according to standard procedures for construction assemblies that employ chemical anchoring adhesives, or according to different standard procedures for construction assemblies that employ only mechanical anchoring techniques.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 8, 2010Publication date: July 14, 2011Inventors: William Dubon, Robert Louis Turck

Patent number: 7472795Abstract: An anti-sag management assembly includes a cross member operatively coupled at opposed first and second ends to brackets that are adapted for movable engagement with stationary portions of first and second telescoping slide assemblies. A slider movably engages the cross member. A first arm is operatively coupled to an arm bracket that is adapted for connection to a movable portion of the first telescoping slide assembly and to the slider. A second arm operatively coupled to a second arm bracket that is adapted for connection to the stationary portion of the first telescoping slide assembly and to the slider. Upon extension of the movable portion of the telescoping slide rail assemblies the slider is moved from a first operative position adjacent the second member bracket to a second operative position adjacent the first member bracket and upon retraction of the device the slider is moved from the second operative position to the first operative position.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2004Date of Patent: January 6, 2009Assignee: Pentair Electronic Packaging CompanyInventors: William Dubon, Ronan Stephens, Donald Anderson
