, k v k 1 arranged that each tooth is placed over Qhe corrugation in which the top 0? ihe'boitthread travels, thereby strengthening and stifiening the gripping member. and at the same time the teeth form a ihiead i'hatz rviii tend to draw (he anchor into (he hoie should it be given a turning moiion while being set in place. a

The inset portion of the members 2. whethier ii is the centr: i part. as in Figs. 2, 8 and L); or the edges. as in Figs. 1 and 3.2 is ,q'i'eaior at one end than a? the other. In the specific embodiment shown in the drawings the inset portion of .he grip-- ping'members increases in depth from the end nea the body portion '1 ontwairii. This arrangementis dearly shown in i igs.

4-. 5 and 6. The object of this arlangrememx is to give an opening of decreasing diameter so that when a boh; is serewed into the anchor it will cause the members 2 to expand and firmly grip into the wail of the openi 1g; intowhich the anchor is-phiceii. If if. desired to make the inset deeper at Hie end nearest the body portion 1; the hoit wiii be screwed into a not which will be drawn inward toward the body portion 1 to expand the anchorv in the Weii known manner. 0 the expansion may be caused by the head of the bolt beingdrawn inwarci toward fihe bociy portion 1. i

It will be noted that in Figs. i M16; 9 the biank shows a. space between the gripping members 2, While the blank shown in i has'five members with pi'aci'icaiiy no space Whatever between them.

In mannfaetming the pieieri'ed foim of blanh and anchor. shfiwn in Figs. Tami 8, the hoies or openings 8 are made by punching the same or oihei'i'ise forming them and the

members

2, 6 ami Z are separated by either punching; the members 6 and i clown wiiiie iioiding the members 2 in hoi-i zontai position or by punching one members 2 down While holding the members 6 and "T in horizonral position. The central portions of the-members 2, (Food '7 are then inset and, if desired, th 'eaded. After ihese operamons the whole piece IS bent upon ztseif along iizs longitudinal axis so as to form the piece in substantiallyi'uhnhu' form. Whoa so bout it assumes the shape shown in Fig. 53.

When it is (iesiabie to make the teeth conform to the thread tho biank is maaio in the shape shown. in Fig. 9--that is. with some space between the (iiiierent geipping members 2. In this case when it is desired "in haw five membm'a with. he poi'i' ion 31 of given diameter, the bianh is preferabiy made in fan shape. The members may he made wider at their outer emis than at their inner (m-is in ihe even? that :1 goon? cx 'iansion is iiesii-abie. When the edges of the members 2 are tinned out-w.

The process of making sheet metal bolt anchors, which consists in taking a 'four sided-blank of metal, punching a plurality of members therefrom, said members being united to a body portion at one end and eiitending to the other end of the anchor, olisetting a portion of each of said. members and bending said piece upon itself along its longitudinal axis leaving an opening therethrough.

4. The process of making sheet metal bolt I anchors which consists in taking a tour lib sided piece of metal with one side of length equal to the length of the anchor and an all-- jacent side of length equal to the circumfer' enco ot the anchor when complete, forming a plurality of members attached only along said second side and offsetting a portion of said incn'lbers and forming the piece into substantially tubular shape;
