Abstract

An anchor head assembly (1) comprising a main body member (2) with a plurality of cavities (5) having the shape of a frustum of a cone in an exterior section (3) and a corresponding number of cavities (6) which may also have the shape of a frustum of a cone in an interior section (4). The cavities are orientated such that the narrow ends of those in the exterior section face the narrow ends of those in the interior section. The interior section (4) is dome-shaped so as to facilitate the fabrication of the cavities therein and to facilitate the splaying of strands or tendons as they are passed into and through the cavities in both the interior and exterior sections. The dome-shaped section also facilitates self-centering of the anchor head asembly in a bearing plate. Wedge members (23) are used for capturing the strands and tendons in the cavities in the exterior section of the anchor head assembly. A hexagonally shaped exterior section (9) and the dome-shaped interior section also provides for a lighter weight anchor head than has been heretofore available and the strength of the anchor head is improved using austempered cast iron fabrication techniques.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS[received by the International Bureau on 26 July 1995 (26.07.95); original claims 1-24 replaced by amended claims 1-16 (3 pages)]
1. An anchor head assembly comprising: a main body member having an exterior section with a plurality of cavities having the shape of a frustum of a cone and an interior section with an equal number of corresponding cavities having the shape of a frustum of a cone wherein the narrow ends of corresponding ones of each of said cavities in said exterior and interior sections are located in the interior of said exterior and interior sections in communication with and facing each other; means in each of said plurality of cavities in said exterior section for capturing a strand or tendon after said strand or tendon has been passed through a corresponding one of said cavities in said interior section; and said exterior section comprises a polygonal shaped lateral outer surface area.
2. An anchor head assembly according to claim 1 wherein said inte¬ rior section comprises an annular planar surface in the center of which is lo¬ cated a truncated dome-shaped surface.
3. An anchor head assembly according to claim 2 wherein said trun¬ cated dome-shaped surface slopes downwardly to said annular planar surface at a predetermined angle 02.
4. An anchor head assembly comprising: a main body member having an exterior section with a plurality of cavities having the shape of a frustum of a cone and an interior section having a dome-shaped surface and an equal number of corresponding cavities, corre- sponding ones of said cavities in said exterior and interior sections being lo¬ cated in communication with each other; means in each of said plurality of cavities in said exterior section for capturing a strand or tendon after said strand or tendon has been passed through a corresponding one of said cavities in said interior section; and said exterior section comprises a polygonal shaped lateral outer surface area.
5. An anchor head assembly according to claim 4 wherein said inte¬ rior section comprises an annular planar surface and said dome-shaped sur- face is located in the center of and said annular planar surface.
6. An anchor head assembly according to claim 5 wherein said dome-shaped surface in the center of said annular planar surface comprises a surface having the shape of a frustum of a cone.
7. An anchor head assembly according to claim 5 wherein said sur- face having the shape of a frustum of a cone slopes downwardly to said annu¬ lar planar surface at a predetermined angle 02.
8. An anchor head assembly according to claim 4 wherein each of said cavities in said interior section has the shape of a frustum of a cone, the narrow ends of which are in communication with and face corresponding cavi¬ ties in said exterior section.
9. An anchor head assembly according to claim 3 or 7 wherein said predetermined angle 02 is approximately 30 degrees.
10. An anchor head assembly according to claim 2 or 5 wherein the periphery of said annular planar surface comprises a shoulder having a wall which slopes inwardly toward said interior section at a predetermined angle 03.
11. An anchor head assembly according to claim 10 wherein said predetermined angle 03 comprises approximately 45 degrees.
12. An anchor head assembly according to claim 1 or 8 wherein the walls of said cavities in said interior and exterior sections diverge at a prede¬ termined angle 1 relative to a longitudinal axis extending through the center thereof.
13. An anchor head assembly according to claim 12 wherein said predetermined angle 01 is approximately 7 degrees.
14. An anchor head assembly according to claim 1 or 4 comprising a center section between said interior and exterior sections in which there is lo- cated a cavity having the shape of a frustum of a cone between and in com¬ munication with corresponding ones of said cavities in each of said interior and exterior sections.
15. An anchor head assembly according to claim 14 wherein the nar¬ row end and the wide end of each of said cavities in said center section faces a corresponding cavity in said exterior and interior sections, respectively.
16. An anchor head assembly according to claim 1 or 4 wherein said polygonal shaped lateral outer surface area is a hexagonal shaped lateral outer surface area.
STATEMENT UNDER ARTICLE 19
In order to distinguish over the cited prior art, independent claims 1 and 4 newly filed have been restricted with respect to original claims 1 and 12 by the feature according to which the exterior section of the anchor head comprises a polygonal shaped lateral outer surface area. In comparison with the anchor heads known in the prior art, which usually have circular shaped lateral outer surface areas, this newly claimed feature, due to the absence of superfluous material, permits a reduction of weight to be obtained..
The dependent claims have been regrouped, combined, adapted to the new independent claims, partly clarified and amended.
