Abstract

The invention relates to a fixing tie (10) which comprises a strip (18), provided with transverse ribs or transverse saw teeth (16) on at least one side, and a lock (20) which locks the strip inserted into the same in the direction of withdrawal. A head (12) is molded onto the end of the strip and the lock (20) is designed as a separate piece that can be put on the strip (18).

Claims

1. A fixing tie with a strip (18) provided with transverse ribs or transverse saw teeth (16) on at least one side and a lock (20) which locks the strip inserted into the same in the direction of withdrawal, a head (12) is formed on one end of the strip and that the lock (20) is configured as a separate part that can be slid onto the strip (18) wherein the head (12) is configured in the shape of two wings (60) having the shape of a widened V, the arms of which enclosing the strip (18) and that a saucer (62), the convex side of which faces the head (12), is slid on the strip (18) under the head (12) and that the strip is equipped on both sides with a toothed section (16), the toothed section (16) being offset relative to each other by half an spacing and the lock (20) being equipped with two opposing locking tongues (24) or with synchronous toothed sections, the locking tongues (24) being disposed in the lock (2) offset relative to each other by half an spacing and the lock (20) being configured in the shape of a saucer, the concave side of the saucer facing the head (12).

2. The fixing tie according to claim 1, wherein the head (12) is configured as an element set transversely to the longitudinal extension of the strip (18), with its transverse extension being greater than that of the strip (18) in at least one direction.

3. The fixing tie according to claim 1, wherein the head (12) is configured in the shape of a saucer. (FIG. 1a)

4. The fixing tie according to claim 1, wherein the head is configured as a bar or a balk (28) set transversely to the longitudinal direction of the strip. (FIG. 1d)

5. The fixing tie according to claim 4, wherein the bar or balk (28) can be bent or swiveled relative to the strip (18).

6. The fixing tie according to claim 1, wherein the head (12) is configured in the shape of a wedge or cone pointing in the direction of the strip for use with an expansion bolt. (FIG. 2)

7. The fixing tie according to claim 6, wherein a lock is integrated into the expansion bolt.

8. The fixing tie according to claim 1, wherein the head (12) is configured as a hollow wall anchor and that the strip (18) is formed onto its base. (FIG. 3, 4)

12. The fixing tie according to claim 1, comprising a disc (saucer 60) that can be slid onto the strip (18). (FIG. 8)

13. The fixing tie according to claim 12, wherein the disc (60) and the lock (20) is configured in the shape of a saucer and that the concave sides of the saucers are facing each other.

14. The fixing tie according to claim 1, further comprising a hose (64) that can be slid onto the strip (18) and squeezed in the longitudinal direction. (FIG. 9)

15. The fixing tie according to claim 1, wherein the toothed section (16) of the strip (18) reaches up to the head (12).

16. The fixing tie according to claim 1, wherein the strip (18) is equipped on both sides with a toothed section (16), the toothed sections (16) being offset preferably by half an indentation, and that the lock is equipped with two opposing locking tongues (24) between which the strip (18) must be inserted. (FIG. 8, 9)

9. A fixing tie with a strip (18) provided with transverse ribs or transverse saw teeth (16) on at least one side and a lock (20) which locks the strip inserted into the same in the direction of withdrawal, the lock itself being configured in the shape of a saucer. (FIG. 5)

10. The fixing tie according to claim 9, the lock being formed approximately in the middle between two connected strips (18). (FIG. 7)

11. A fixing tie with a double lock (46) as an integral component with two individual locks (48, 50), the first individual lock (48) locking outward from the outside and the second lock (50) locks in the direction of the first lock (48) after passing around the other end of the strip, forming a loop and inserting the strip into the second lock (50).
