A setting tool is used for a setting tool system for setting capsule anchors, wherein the setting tool includes a shank and a head arranged at one end of the shank having a connecting section to which a drive head of a capsule anchor may be connected, wherein the shank includes in a threaded section which is adjacent to the head, a thread, and a thread-free section at an end of the shank opposite the head. Further, a set is used for a setting tool system for setting capsule anchors, including an adapter, which may be coupled to a drive machine, and at least one setting tool. Additionally, a setting tool system includes a setting tool or a set for a setting tool system and a capsule anchor and/or a drive machine.

A setting method for expansion anchors via an impact wrench has a first phase S1 and a second phase S2. In the first phase, a rotary impact is repeatedly exerted on a screw element of the expansion anchor and a torque transmitted from the rotary impact to the screw head is estimated. The first phase S1 is ended when the estimated transmitted torque exceeds a threshold value specified for the expansion anchor. During the second phase, a first number of rotary impacts specified for the expansion anchor are exerted on the screw head. A current rate of change of the estimated torque is monitored at least during the first phase. In response to the current rate of change exceeding a limit value for the rate of change specified for the expansion anchor, a modified second phase is started, in which a second number of rotary impacts specified for the expansion anchor are exerted on the screw head, the second number being less than the first number.

A control method of an impact wrench for setting an expansion anchor carries out a first sequence in response to a button being pressed. In a first phase, a rotary impact is repeatedly exerted on a screw element of the expansion anchor and a torque transmitted from the rotary impact to the screw head is estimated. The first phase S1 is continued until the estimated transmitted torque exceeds a threshold value specified for the expansion anchor. In a second phase, a number of rotary impacts specified for the expansion anchor are exerted on the screw head. If the button is released before the end of the first sequence, a premature release of the button and the phase in which the button was released is stored in a memory. In response to the button being pressed when a premature release is stored in the memory, a second sequence is carried which depends on the phase in which the button was previously released.

A method enabling two holes belonging to two parts to be aligned relies on use of a tool, comprising a body, having a first outer surface which gradually wanders from a longitudinal axis of the body as it extends from a first end of the body, and a hollow part having a second outer surface with a complementary section to the section of the holes. The hollow part comprises a hole through which it is removably mounted on the tool so that the second outer surface extends the first outer surface on an opposite side to the first end of the body. The method comprises inserting the first end of the body into the first hole, and then operating the tool to push the body and then the hollow part together into the holes. This method especially applies to the assembly of a floor module to an aircraft fuselage.

The present invention concerns a fastener (110) for the temporary assembly of at least two previously drilled structures (112) comprising: a hollow body (122) comprising a bearing surface (40); elastic clips (24) which are movable relative to the body and which form a projection relative to the bearing surface; a spacer (26) around which the elastic clips are positioned; a connecting element (130), extending within the body and secured to the elastic clips (24); and an actuating element (132) linked to connecting element by a thread/tapping (67, 84). The connecting element is traversed by a lateral opening (70) axially extended between two closed ends (72, 74); and the fastener also comprises a transverse stop (28) secured to the spacer, the said stop being capable of sliding between the axial ends of the said lateral opening.

The setting tool (1) has a first part (2) for driving in a drop-in anchor and a second part (3), placeable on the first part along an axis (8), for drilling a drill hole for the drop-in anchor. The first part (2) has an insertion end (5) for a percussive portable power tool, a plunger (6) having an impact surface (12) and a piece (16) of a rotary coupling. The second part (3) has a slip-on sleeve (20), which coaxially surrounds the plunger (6) and bears against the impact surface (12) of the plunger (6), a counterpart (33) for the rotary coupling and a drill bit (23) permanently connected to the slip-on sleeve (20).

A handheld tool for installing wire on a fence, the tool having a frame, a sprocket system that is situated at least partially within the frame and engaged by an actuator, a T-post alignment unit that is configured to position a vertical T-post against the tool, a clip storage magazine that is attached to a top of the frame, a tube assembly that is movably mounted within the frame, and a presenter that is configured to present clips from the magazine. The sprocket system and tube assembly are configured to cause the clip presented by the presenter to be pushed into position against the T-post and a horizontal fence wire, tension the fence wire against the T-post, lock the fence wire into position against the T-post by straddling the T-post with the clip, and wrap two ends of the clip around the fence wire to attach it to the T-post.
