GROUND
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to an apparatus for fastening a hollow composite pole to the ground where a slit formed opening is present in the ground. The invention also relates to a method for fastening a hollow composite pole to the ground.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
It is known to fasten composite poles in the ground by excavating a recess, and thereafter positioning the composite pole in the recess and fill in around the pole.
Regarding poles for overhead power lines, such a method will often involve relatively large environmental damage, particularly when a recess is made in rock. Wlen fastening poles by use of said method, frost damage may occur due insufficient draining.
It is also known to mount a composite pole to a column 'raised from the ground. The col-umn may be made from concrete and having reinforcement that extends into the ground.
The composite pole may be inserted over the column. If the column is made from con-crete, it is necessary to bring the concrete to the position of the column often by use of a helicopter, or make concrete at the position of the column. Both methods comprises extra zo costs and work.
W02004/101914 discloses a hollow pole that is drilled into a slit the ground.

2 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention has for its objeceto remedy or to reduce at least one of the drawbacks of the prior art, or at least provide a useful alternative to prior art.
The object is achieved through features, which are specified in the description below and in the claims that follow.
The invention is defined by the independent patent claims. The dependent claims define advantageous embodiments of the invention.
In a first aspect, the invention relates more particularly to fastening element in accordance with claim 1.
io The invention concerns having a slit-formed opening, preferably circular, in the ground, where a fastening element is positioned in the slit-formed opening. The fastening element has a conical upper portion above the ground. A hollow composite pole, has a comple-mentary conical inner portion at its lower end, and is positioned on and abutting the fas-tening element.
By hollow means that the composite pole' must have an inner opening, at least in the por-tion that is moved over the fastening element.
The slit formed opening may be circular and formed by drilling or hammering a body into the ground.
The fastening element may be equipped with drill elements at its lower end portion to en-able the fastening element to be used as a drill.
The drill elements may comprise metal or ceramic material or combinations thereof.
In a second aspect the invention relates more particularly to a method for fastening a hol-low composite pole for overhead power lines to the ground in accordance with claim 6.
The method comprises fixing the fastening element to the ground, for instance by adhe-sive or a concrete based material.
The method may comprise making the slit formed opening by drilling into the ground.
The method may comprise making the slit formed opening by hammering the fastening element into the ground.

3 The method comprises providing the lower end portion of the fastening element with drill elements and drilling the fastening element into the ground.
The fastening element may be made from composite material or metal or combinations thereof.
If parts of the ground that is positioned on the inner side of the slit should loosen or where it is advantageous to have it removed partly or fully, the material on the inner side of the slit may be at least partly removed.
When drilling in soil or march, it may be advantageous to have frost in the ground to avoid movement in the ground during drilling.
io Tests show that the drill or the fastening element must be aligned with the vertical axes prior to being moved into the ground.
The apparatus and method according to invention solves the problem of fastening a hol-low composite pole to the ground in a relatively simple and cost effective way.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION.OF THE EMBODIMENTS
On the drawings, the reference numeral 1 denotes a drill that by the help of a power drill 2 is under displacement into the ground 4. The ground 4 may constitute for example rock, soil, or march, alternatively combination thereof.
The power drill 2 is typically aligned and is fixed to the ground 4 or another suitable, not lo shown device. There after the power drill 2 that may be electrically or hydraulically driven, displaces the drill 1 into the ground 4 while rotating the drill 1. Thus, a slit formed opening 6 is formed in the ground 4. The drill 1 is then removed from the slit formed opening 6. _ A composite pole 8 that has been moved into the slit formed opening 6 is shown in fig. 2.
Additional fixing of the composite pole 8 to the ground 4 may be achieved by inserting grouting, fixing compound or other material (not shown) in between the composite pole 8 and the ground 4.
In an embodiment of the invention, shown in fig. 3, a sleeve formed fastening element 10 is positioned in the slit formed opening 6. Additional fixing of the fixing element 10 to the ground 4 may be carried out as described for the composite pole 8. A composite pole 8 that is conical inside is placed about the fastening element 10 that has a conical upper portion 18, and moved against the fastening element until abutment is established.
In some cases, as when the ground 4 mainly constitutes suitable soil, the fixing element 10 may be forced into the ground 4 by hammering.
In a further alternative embodiment as shown in fig. 4, the fastening element 10 is by its lower end portion 12 equipped with several drill elements 14. The section IV-IV in fig 5 shows a possible distribution of the drill elements 14 about the centre axis 16 of the fas-tening element 10. The drill elements may be made from material from the fastening ele-ment 10 or constitute other materials that is fixed to the fastening element 10.
