Description

SPECIFICATION An Injection Device for Injecting a Fixing Agent Into a Drilled Hole in Masonry This invention relates to a pneumatically operable injection device for injecting a fixing agent into a hole in masonry to anchor a fixing plug in the hole.
Manuaily operated injection devices for injecting a cement mixture into a hole drilled in masonry to anchor a fastening element in the hole are known. Filling the drilled hole requires a certain injection pressure which can be achieved manually only when using injection devices having a small volume. This means that the contents of such a manual injection device is only sufficient for a few drilled holes. Carrying out a series of mounting operations with a manual injection device is thus very time-consuming and expensive, quite apart from the physical strain put on the operator.
For injecting adhesive compositions, sealing compositions and the like, disposable cartridges are known which can be inserted into compressed air injection devices. An injection plunger inserted in the cartridge is pressed in the direction of a nozzle opening by the compressed air so that the composition in the cartridge is squeezed out. This process is advantageous only when the cartridge contains high-quality adhesive compositions or sealing compositions the cost of which is high compared to the cost of the disposable cartridge.
This process is not advantageous, however, when using a cement mixture, which is relatively cheap, because the extra cost of the disposable cartridge would not be economic.
The problem underlying the invention is to provide a pneumatically operable injection device which makes it possible to anchor a large number of fastening elements economically.
The present invention provides a pneumatically operable injection device for injecting a fixing agent into a hole, the device comprising a tubular body portion, a piston slidably mounted in the body portion, an injection nozzle having an outlet opening for fixing agent and a closure cap having an inlet opening for connection to a fluid pressure source, each of the nozzle and the cap having a skirt portion which can be releasably and sealingly secured to either end of the body portion by pushfitting.
Using an injection device of this construction it is possible to anchor a fixing plug in masonry as follows. After removing the injection nozzle from one end of the injection device, the fixing agent is introduced into the body portion of the injection device through that end, the other end being sealed by the closure cap and by the piston. When using a cement or mortar mixture as the fixing agent, the water is introduced first and then the cement. The two constituents are mixed in the injection device by means of a stirring rod. The injection nozzle is then replaced on the end of the body portion and brought into register with the hole in masonry, or, if the fixing plug has already been inserted in that hole, into register with a hole in the plug.By applying fluid pressure, for example compressed air, to the piston, the piston is pushed towards the nozzle outlet opening, and the fixing agent is injected into the hole in the masonry or the plug to anchor the plug in position. When the injection device has been completely emptied, the closure cap and the nozzle are removed from the body portion and replaced at opposite ends of the body portion. The injection device can now be used again in the same manner as described above. Because the positions of the closure cap and the nozzle are interchanged after each injection operation, it is unnecessary to return the piston to its original position before starting a fresh injection operation.This not only saves time but can also have a cleaning effect, when water is one of the constituents of the fixing agent, since any fixing agent remaining in the body portion after one injection operation will be washed away by water introduced into the body portion prior to the next injection operation.
As there is no screw connection between either the closure cap or nozzle and the body portion, it is possible to carry out a quick and trouble-free exchange even when the outer surface of the injection device is dirty. The absence of a positive or tight connection between either the nozzle or cap and the body portion is not detrimental because as the fixing agent is being injected, the injection device is pressed against the mouth of the drilled hole or against the fixing plug situated in the drilled hole.
To improve retention and for sealing engagement of the nozzle or cap on the body portion, it is of advantage if the wall thickness of its skirt portion decreases along its length in a direction towards its free edge.
Alternatively, or in addition to reducing the wall thickness cf each skirt portion a sealing ring can be arranged on each skirt portion.
To facilitate mounting and/or to improve retention of each skirt portion on the body portion; the skirt portion can have one or more slots beginning at its free edge and extending along a portion of its length.
A pneumatically operable injection device constructed in accordance with the present invention, will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawing the single figure of which is a part sectional side elevation of the device.
Referring to the accompanying drawing the injection device comprises a cylindrical body portion 1, preferably metal, one end of which receives an injection nozzle 2 and the other end of which receives a closure cap 5. A piston 10 is slidably mounted in the body portion 1.
Each of the nozzle 2 and the cap 5 is formed from resilient, preferably, plastics material and has a skirt portion 3 which can be releasably and sealingly secured to either end of the body portion by push-fitting. Each end of the body portion is conical (it could be cylindrical) in form.
The wall thickness of each skirt portion decreases along its length in a direction towards its free edge. This improves retention and/or sealing engagement on the body portion. To achieve a resilient holding action, a slot 4 is provided in each skirt portion beginning at its free edge and extending over a portion of its length.
To improve sealing a sealing ring 12 is arranged on the underside of the top portion of the cap 5. A similar sealing ring (not shown) could be provided for the nozzle 2.
The skirt portions 3 on the closure cap 5 and the injection nozzle 2 have the same construction so that their positions on the body portion 1 can be interchanged.
Closure cap 5 has an opening in its top portion which receives an inlet connector 6 of a compressed air gun 8. A nut 7 can be screwed onto the connector 6 to hold the cap on the gun.
To introduce fixing agent into the body portion 1 the nozzle must first be removed. It is also possible separately to introduce the individual constituents of the fixing agent mixture and then to mix them in the injection device by means of a stirring rod. The nozzle outlet opening is closed by a releasable cap or stopper 11 to prevent premature ejection of the fixing agent.
In operation, compressed air is admitted into the space between the underside of the top portion of the cap 5 and piston 10 via a compressed air line 9 and the gun 8, so that pressure can build up in the said space. This pressure causes the injection plunger 10 to move towards the nozzle and any fixing agent in the body portion is ejected through an outlet opening in the nozzle.
