Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiments
The anchor 10 has a cylindrical body 12 with an annular inwardly directed return wall 11 defining an access opening 15. The opposite end of the body is open. Anchor portions 13, 14 project outwardly from diametrically opposed locations of the body 12. The anchor 10 includes a cap 20, a fastener carriage 30, a fastener 40, a carriage support 50 and a cover 60.
The cap 20 has raised portions 23, 24 which are received within opening 15. A flange or lip 26 extends around the portions 23, 24 and prevents the cap 20 from passing through the opening 15. A channel 22 is present between portions 23, 24 and a slot 21 is located within the channel
22.
The cap ,20 has recesses 25 formed in the lip 26. Four such recesses are present arranged in pairs on opposed sides of the cap.
Fastener carriage 30 is U shaped and has a connecting wall with an aperture 31 extending through it.
The carriage 30 has legs 33, 34 with outer flattened faces. The carriage 30 has a cavity 32 for receiving fastener 40 in such a way that it prevents rotation of the fastener 40 relative to the carriage 30.
Carriage support 50 has side flanges 52 and 53 extending from a connecting wall 57. The flattened sides of legs 33, 34 engage against the inner surfaces of flanges 52 and 53, such that the carriage is free to move along the support 50 but cannot rotate relative to it. A slot 51 is formed in the wall 57.
The support 50 has fingers 54 and 55 which project from the flanges 52, 53 and engage with recesses 25 in the cap 20 so that in the assembled condition the cap 20 retains the carriage 30 and the fastener 40 between it and the support 50 as a unit free to rotate within the body 12.
A cover 60 closes off the bottom of the body 12 once the other parts are positioned within the body. The cover has a main panel 62 from which extends an upwardly directed circular flange 61. The flange is received within the body 12 and hold the cover relative to the body. Two part circular flanges 64, 63 also extend from the panel 62. If desired, the panel 62 may have one or more spacing formations formed on it which serve to space the underside of wall 57 from the panel to provide clearance between wall 57 and panel 62. This allows the shank of a blot, which engages with fastener 40, to project slightly beyond the underside of the wall 57. The anchor 70 of figure 3 has a cylindrical body 71 with an annular inwardly directed return wall 72 defining an access opening 73. The opposite end of the body 71 is open. Anchor portions 74, 75 project outwardly from diametrically opposed locations of the body 71.
The anchor 70 includes a cap 80, a fastener carriage 90, a fastener 100 and a cover 110.
In the embodiment of figure 3, the carriage support is integrally formed with the cap 80 and consists of two (only one of which is visible) legs 81. The fastener carriage 90 is received between these legs 81 and is able to move relative to the flanges and in the direction of the longitudinal axis through slot 82 in the cap 80.
The cap 80 has raised portions 83, 84 and a lip 85 extending around portion 83 and 84. The underside of the cap 80 in the region between the legs 81 has grooves 86 formed extending between the flanges 81.
The carriage 90 has legs 91 and 92 between which the fastener 100 may be received and retained against rotation relative to the carriage 90. An aperture 93 extends through the carriage and provides access to the fastener 100. An upper surface of the carriage 90 has grooves 94. These grooves 94 are normally out of engagement with grooves 86 so that the carriage is free to move along the direction of the slot 82. Once the carriage is in its desired position relative to cap 80 and a bolt or the like is engaged with fastener 100 and tightened, the carriage 90 is drawn into engagement with the cap 80 and held at a desired location when grooves 86 and 94 engage with each other.
A cover 110 closes off the end of the body 71 opposite opening 73. The cover is a plug received within the base opening.
In use the anchor is secured to reinforcement by ties or the like secured to portions 13, 14 (or 74 and 75). Access opening 15 &73) may be closed off by an adhesive patch. Formwork used in the casting of a slab may be placed against the anchor abutting wall 11. Concrete may then be poured and allowed to cure with the anchor embedded within the resultant slab. The formwork may then be removed and the adhesive patch removed to expose opening 15 (73). A bolt may then be used to attach fittings to the anchor. The anchor allows for adjustments to ensure that the fittings are located at desired positions relative to the slab. The fastener carriage is free to move from side to side and in addition the unit referred to previously is adopted to rotate relative to the body 12 (71).
