' Be it known that l', JOHN Einw/mo Oomen',

a, citizen of the United States of America, A und u. residentof Cornwall, Ora-nge County, `5 and State of New York, have invented cernew 'and useful Im rovements in Exp' """n Shieldsyowhie the followingiis alsieeiii'cetion, referencefbeing had toV tlie ao mp'ag'nying=l drawing. forminrr""h.

Another'object visto' pro?ide a,nlin 4 ternally threaded screwr receiving"- member which d may be inserted in en expansion slileld'and be made to expandthe same, which my l be 'held in such 1).` 'shield ready to receive a screw, or bolt'. "Another object v is to Erovide s. threaded member ada ted to receive e bolt and to be turned by the olt, and am'v expansible member arrangedY to be eiqanded i'nto holding-engegement with the wn ls of a. recessor hole-drilled ini ai,t wall or other object, by the rotation of the boltrec'e'ivingY member. Another obect is` to pro vide en anchorage ,in which't e'fbolt receivsorew threads are protected so that bolts may be removed and re-inserted et will. A still further ob'ectgi'sto provide structures which may be rawn or pressed lfrom sheet motel.

These and other objects of the invention will appear in 'the following specification in which I will describe the invention, the

v40 novel features of which will he set forth in appended oleims.

The device is inserted in a drill hole 20 in e structure 21, and s. bolt 22 inee'rtedi This fits the internal' threads 13 of. themember 10 which it enters freely. Ars soon as the end of the bolt reaches the bottom of this thread reoeivingme'mber' rits closed end 1l, it cannot go further into themember= bute,V continuationv of the rotation 'of the bolt will cause the member '1,0'I'to turn with it. Thisby reason f'its i 'ent with the threads 16 will drawthe otter onto the inner member and ceusfe' the closed end of the outer member to be' moved towards the heed ofthe bolt. The other endof'the puter member is -held against moving in this di- 100 recton by the flange 12. The result is that the'crmps or'folds 17 will be' folded towards onanother, and as they Cenn'otfmove 1nwardly because of their engagement with the outer surface of the inner member,the will 105 expandinto'a ti ht engagement wi the wall of4 the hole 0, es shown in Figure 2 sind thereby form a. firm anchorege.`
