Abstract
In a method for fastening a component, a nail having a nail shank and a nail head is provided, a sleeve is arranged on the nail shank, a driving-in element and a guide channel are provided, the nail head and the sleeve are arranged in the guide channel such that a peripheral gap is formed between the nail head and the guide channel, the driving-in element is driven through the guide channel toward the nail head in order to move the nail in a driving-in direction toward the substrate, the sleeve is compressed between the nail shank, the guide channel and the nail head while the nail moves toward the substrate, and a preload is applied to the sleeve by means of the nail head.
Claims20
A method for fastening a component to a substrate, the method comprising:
- providing a nail having a nail shank and a nail head, wherein the nail head has a head diameter which projects beyond the nail shank,
- arranging a sleeve on the nail shank,
- providing a driving-in element and a guide channel, wherein the guide channel has an inside diameter which exceeds the head diameter,
- arranging the nail head and the sleeve in the guide channel such that a peripheral gap is formed between the nail head and the guide channel,
- driving the driving-in element through the guide channel toward the nail head in order to move the nail in a driving-in direction toward the substrate,
- compressing the sleeve between the nail shank, the guide channel and the nail head while the nail moves toward the substrate, and
- applying a preload to the sleeve by the nail head.
A device for fastening a component to a substrate, the device comprising:
- a nail having a nail shank and a nail head, wherein the nail head has a head diameter which projects beyond the nail shank, and wherein the nail shank has a preloading element which is intended for applying a preloading force to the nail shank when the nail is driven into the substrate
- a fastening element, having a disk for holding the component, a hollow shaft which projects from the disk and which has a shaft bottom which projects from the shaft bottom and is arranged on the nail shank.
