Abstract
A fitting for connecting two structural components, particularly plates, includes a clamping device mounted in the first structural component and an expanding sleeve which can be secured to the second structural component. A bolt is arranged in the expanding sleeve so as to be longitudinally movable by the clamping device for expanding the expanding sleeve using a conical portion of the bolt. The conical portion of the bolt is an approximately cone-shaped projection whose longitudinal axis is laterally offset relative to the longitudinal axis of the bolt.
Claims8
A fitting for connecting two structural components, particularly plates, the fitting comprising a clamping device adapted to be mounted in a first structural component and an expanding sleeve adapted to be secured in a second structural component, a bolt being mounted in the expanding sleeve so as to be longitudinally displaceable by the clamping device, the bolt having a longitudinal axis and a conical portion for expanding the expanding sleeve, wherein the conical portion of the bolt is comprised of an approximately cone-shaped projection having a longitudinal axis, wherein the bolt has a radius, and wherein the longitudinal axis of the cone-shaped projection extends at a distance from the longitudinal axis of the bolt which is equal to the radius of the bolt.
