Light fixture

A fastening element for attaching plate-shaped boards, and including a large-surface clamping member (,) with a hollow-stem (,) projecting from opening in the clamping member (,) with a hollow stem (,) projecting from and having a bore (,) opening in the clamping member (,) for receiving an expansion member (,) for an anchoring member (,); and a plug-shaped member (,) attached to the clamping member (,) with a strap (,) for closing the bore and having a plug-in section (,) with a sealing surface (,) sealing by cooperating with the bore wall and is force-lockingly retained therein, with the plug-in section (,) having at least one recess (,) provided with an undercut and a largest diameter of which corresponds to a diameter of a stem (,) of the expansion member (,) for enabling the closing member (,) to eclipse the shaft (,) of the expansion member (,).

Fastening element for attaching insulation boards

An expansion dowel, including an expansion sleeve (,) having a rear section (,) provided with an inner thread (,), an opposite expansion section (,) with a plurality of expansion tabs (,) separated by axial slots, and a stepped bore (,) having in, the expansion section (,), a smaller inner diameter (s) than in the rear section (,) and a circumferential annular shoulder (,) formed in a transitional region between the rear and the expansion sections (,) and facing substantial toward a rear end of the expansion sleeve (,), and an expansion member (,) provided at a front end of the expansion sleeve (,) projecting beyond the front, the expansion member (,) projecting beyond the front end of the expansion sleeve (,), widening substantially conically in a setting direction (,), and having a length (l) larger than a length (k) of the expansion section (,) of the expansion sleeve (,).

Expansion dowel

An undercut self-cutting dowel including a body (2) having a through-bore (13), a load application element (3) provided in a rear portion of the body (2), and a plurality of expansion tabs (4) separated by axial slots and formed in a front portion of the body (2), opposite the rear portion, with the expansion tabs (4) extending from a plastic hinge (5) to a free front end of the body (2), and with the body (2) having, in a region of the plastic hinge (5), a reduced, in comparison with the rear portion, outer diameter which results in formation of an annular shoulder (6) facing in a setting direction (s), with the outer diameter again increasing toward the free front end of the body (2); an expansion member (7) held in the through-bore (13) and projecting beyond the free front end of the body (2); and an expansion sleeve (8) surrounding sections of the expansion tabs (4) which adjoin the plastic hinge (5) and radially expandable at least in its front, in the setting direction, section, with a largest outer diameter (h) of the sleeve (8) being smaller than or equal to a largest diameter (a) of the body (2).

Undercut self-cutting dowel

A combination drilling member includes an axially elongated drill, such as used for drilling rock, having an axially extending shaft (2) with a first end leading in the drilling direction containing a cutting bit (3). The shaft (2) has at least one helical drilled material removal groove (4) and an auxiliary element encircling and detachably connected to the shaft (2) intermediate the ends thereof. The auxiliary element (6) has at least one elastic plastic part (9) extending around the shaft and containing a through hole (10) for the shaft where the plastic part is secured to the shaft by at least one of frictional and positive locking engagement against inadvertent axial displacement and held against relative rotation to torques of up to 40 Nm.
