A method for creating a weep hole is disclosed. The weep hole is drilled in an uncured, concrete, hollow core structural component having one or more external surfaces and one or more internal surfaces. The weep hole is drilled using a drilling apparatus comprising a drill, a rotating drill bit with an internal fluid passageway, a power source, and a pressurized fluid source. Loose, uncured concrete material deposited near the weep hole on the one or more internal surface as a result of drilling the weep hole is removed by releasing pressurized fluid which flows from the pressurized fluid source, through the drill and the rotating drill bit.

The invention relates to a system for securing an anchor in a borehole in a mineral substrate, in particular concrete, mortar, or brickwork, comprising an anchor with a core section and a threaded section and comprising a furrowing tool for furrowing an internal thread in the borehole, said furrowing tool comprising the following: a main part with a leading end and a trailing end, wherein a force is applied via which a torque can be transmitted to the main part in order to rotate the furrowing tool (10) into the borehole and furrow the thread, and the main part has an outer surface equipped with a furrowing thread which is suitable for furrowing the internal thread into the wall of the borehole. The furrowing tool has a drive element on the leading end of the furrowing tool, said drive element being suitable for interacting with an application of force to the anchor or a part thereof which is to be screwed into the borehole machined by the furrowing tool.

Disclosed herein is a system for fastening an anchor in a borehole in a mineral substrate, in particular concrete, mortar or masonry, comprising an anchor having a core section and a thread section, and a grooving tool for grooving an internal thread in the borehole, the grooving tool comprising the following: a base body having a leading and a trailing end, a force application device being provided, via which a torque for screwing the grooving tool into the borehole and for grooving the thread is transmitted to the base body, the base body having an outer surface on which a grooving thread is formed, which is suitable for grooving the internal thread into the wall of the borehole, the following applying to the ratio of the length h.sub.eff of the thread section of the anchor and the nominal diameter d.sub.b of the borehole: h.sub.eff/d.sub.b≥10.0, preferably ≥12.0, particularly preferably ≥15.0, and in particular ≥30.0.

The invention relates to a system for securing an anchor in a borehole in a mineral substrate, in particular concrete, mortar, or brickwork, comprising an anchor with a core section and a threaded section and comprising a furrowing tool for furrowing an internal thread in the borehole, wherein the furrowing tool comprises the following: a main part with a leading end and a trailing end, said main part having an outer surface on which a furrowing thread is formed that is suitable for furrowing the internal thread into the wall of the borehole. The outer surface of the main part is equipped with a plurality of elevations, each of which has a cutting edge, and all of the cutting edges lie at least partly on an imaginary cylinder with a diameter (do). The cutting edges are suitable for at least partially removing the inner wall of the borehole when the furrowing tool is rotated into the borehole in order to adapt the internal wall of the borehole to the imaginary cylinder.

A one-piece cutting head for a drill bit includes a main cutting edge that extends between radial extremities of the cutting head. The main cutting edge is disposed between main rake surfaces and main relief surfaces. Each main rake surface includes one or more rake facets, and each main relief surface includes one or more relief facets. Adjacent rake facets and relief facets define a primary transverse edge therebetween that extends away from the main cutting edge. The cutting head further includes a plurality of side cutters that are transverse to the main cutting edge and that propagate from the primary transverse edge to a radial extremity of the cutting head. Each side cutter includes a side cutting edge between a side cutting rake facet and a side cutting relief facet.

A cutting tool with a plurality of cutting elements connected to a support structure wherein a portion of the support structure is configured to flex or bend based on the rotational frequency of the cutting tool. The rotational frequency of the cutting tool is a product of the design and composition of the tool.

An application tool, in particular a chisel or a drill bit, is disclosed. The application tool has a tool head. The application tool further has a shank region in which a main body is arranged, wherein the main body has a first hardness. The application tool further has a coating that has a second hardness greater than the first hardness. The coating includes a hard metal, which comprises a hard material and a metal matrix. Advantageously, the durability of the application tool can be increased as a result.

An apparatus for punching an anchor bolt insertion hole is disclosed. The apparatus enables punching work for forming the anchor bolt insertion hole, of which the bottom side is wider than an inlet, on a panel surface for constructing a concrete structure to be performed regardless of the skill of a worker. During operation, the apparatus provides the movement direction of a hammer drill into the vertical direction and the inclination direction so as to enable precise punching work, and doubly arranges springs, which are elastic devices for adjusting the movement range of the hammer drill, so as to uniformly maintain the angle and size for cutting a wall such that a cross-sectional diameter is large at a portion adjacent to the bottom of the anchor bolt insertion hole.

A drilling tool, in particular a rock drill, extends along a longitudinal axis and includes a drill head, an insertion end, a main body, a sleeve element, a conveying portion arranged between the drill head and the insertion end, and at least one conduit that extends along the conveying portion. The conduit is located radially between the sleeve element and the main body. The sleeve element is rotatably mounted on the main body.
