The present invention relates to a method of installing an anchor bolt, a method of drilling an anchor bolt hole, and a drilling device.
Conventionally, when an anchor bolt is installed in an existing structure for reinforcement or expansion, a drilling device is used for drilling a fixing hole in a fixing surface for installing the anchor bolt, so that the anchor bolt is inserted into the fixing hole (refer to Patent Reference 1).
In particular, when a reinforcing member is installed inside a fixing surface of an existing structure, first, it is tried to find a location where a reinforcing member does not exist according to a previous construction drawing. Then, a radio-wave radar detector is used for confirming that a reinforcing member does not exist. Afterward, a drilling device is used for drilling a fixing hole in the location.
In the conventional method of installing an anchor bolt, a radio-wave radar detector can detect only a depth of 100 to 140 mm. Accordingly, when there is no previous construction drawing, or a reinforcing member does not exist at a location drawn in a construction drawing, there may be a chance of hitting an existing reinforcing member during an actual operation of drilling a fixing hole of an anchor bolt.
In this case, a fixing hole must be drilled at a different location, or a short anchor bolt is fixed to a shallow fixing hole. Alternatively, an existing reinforcing member is cut, so that a deep fixing hole is drilled.
However, when a fixing hole is drilled at a different location, an anchor bolt may not have sufficient strength. When an existing reinforcing member is cut and a deep fixing hole is drilled, a fixing surface may have lowered strength. If these problems are left as is, it is possible to cause a serious social issue.
To this end, through keen study, the inventor has been able to develop the present invention. According to the present invention, it is possible to install an anchor bolt with sufficient strength without lowering strength even when a reinforcing member exists.
According to claim 1 of the present invention, in a method of installing an anchor bolt in a fixing surface, first, a first fixing hole for fixing the anchor bolt is drilled in the fixing surface. Then, a second fixing hole is drilled from a distal end portion of the first fixing hole in an inclined state. Afterward, an anchor bolt bent at a middle portion thereof is fixed to the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole.
According to claim 2 of the present invention, in a method of installing an anchor bolt in a fixing surface, first, a first fixing hole for fixing the anchor bolt is drilled in the fixing surface. Then, a plurality of second fixing holes is drilled from a distal end portion of the first fixing hole in an inclined state. Afterward, an anchor bolt having a plurality of branched portions at a middle portion thereof is fixed to the first fixing hole and the second fixing holes.
According to claim 3 of the present invention, in claim 1 or claim 2 of the present invention, the first fixing hole is drilled with a first drilling bit detachably attached to a distal end of a first drilling tool. Then, the first drilling bit at the distal end of the first drilling tool is replaced with a guide bush. A second drilling tool is inserted through a guide hole formed in the guide bush in an inclined state. Lastly, the second fixing hole is drilled with a second drilling bit detachably attached to a distal end of the second drilling tool.

According to claim 6 of the present invention, in a method of drilling a fixing hole for fixing an anchor bolt in a fixing surface, first, a first fixing hole is drilled in the fixing surface. Then, a plurality of second fixing holes is drilled from a distal end portion of the first fixing hole in an inclined state.
According to claim 7 of the present invention, in claim 6 of the present invention, the first fixing hole is drilled with a first drilling bit detachably attached to a distal end of a first drilling tool. Then, the first drilling bit at the distal end of the first drilling tool is replaced with a guide bush. A second drilling tool is inserted through a guide hole formed in the guide bush in an inclined state. The second fixing holes are drilled with the second drilling bit detachably attached to a distal end of the second drilling tool.
According to claim 8 of the present invention described, in claim 6 or claim 7 of the present invention, at least one of the plurality of the second fixing holes is drilled to penetrate through an existing reinforcing member installed inside the fixing surface.
According to claim 9 of the present invention, in a drilling device for drilling a fixing hole for fixing an anchor bolt in a fixing surface, the drilling device includes a first drilling tool; a first drilling bit detachably attached to a distal end of the first drilling tool; a guide bush detachably attached to the distal end of the first drilling tool; a second drilling tool to be inserted through a guide hole formed in the guide bush in an inclined state, and having a diameter smaller than that of the first drilling tool; and a second drilling bit detachably attached to a distal end of the second drilling tool.
According to claim 10 of the present invention, in claim 9 of the present invention, the second drilling bit includes a guide portion on an outer circumference surface thereof having a height same as that of a grinding stone.
According to the present invention, a fixing hole is drilled in a fixing surface of a structure for fixing an anchor bolt. Afterward, the anchor bolt is inserted into the fixing hole.
According to the present invention, after it is tried to find a location where a reinforcing member does not exist according to a previous construction drawing, a radio-wave radar detector is used for confirming that a reinforcing member actually does not exist. Then, a first fixing hole is drilled at the location with a drilling device. When a reinforcing member exists in front of the first fixing hole, a second fixing hole is drilled from a distal end portion of the first fixing hole in an inclined state. Afterward, an anchor bolt having a bending portion at a middle portion thereof is fixed into the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole.
In this case, the second fixing hole may have a diameter same as that of the first fixing hole, or may include a plurality of fixing holes having a diameter smaller than that of the first fixing hole.
In drilling the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole, first, the first fixing hole is drilled with a first drilling tool. Afterward, the second fixing hole is drilled from the distal end portion of the first fixing hole in an inclined state with a second drilling tool.
In this case, the first fixing hole may be drilled with a first drilling bit detachably attached to a distal end of the first drilling tool. Then, the first drilling bit at the distal end of the first drilling tool is replaced with a guide bush. The second drilling tool is inserted through a guide hole formed in the guide bush in an inclined state. The second fixing hole is drilled with a second drilling bit detachably attached to a distal end of the second drilling tool.
At least one of a plurality of the second fixing holes may be drilled to penetrate through an existing reinforcing member installed inside the fixing surface.
As the anchor bolt to be fixed to the first fixing hole and second fixing hole, the anchor bolt may have a plurality of distal end portions branched from a middle portion thereof and formed of a shape-memory alloy. Accordingly, the distal end portions can open and close according to a temperature change. A material of the anchor bolt is not limited to a shape-memory alloy, and may include a normal anchor bolt material. Especially when the anchor bolt having the branched distal end portions has a small diameter, a normal anchor bolt material may be used.
As described above, according to the present invention, after the first fixing hole for fixing the anchor bolt is drilled in the fixing surface, the second fixing hole is drilled from the distal end portion of the first fixing hole in an inclined state. Accordingly, even when an existing reinforcing member is installed inside the fixing surface, it is possible to drill the second fixing hole diverting the existing reinforcing member or penetrating through the existing reinforcing member.
Further, it is possible to fix the anchor bolt having a plurality of branched portions in an octopus-leg shape at the middle portion thereof in the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole, thereby securely obtaining sufficient strength of a structure and sufficient strength of the anchor bolt.
Hereunder, embodiments of the present invention will be explained with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The drilling device according to the present invention will be explained first. As shown in
In the first drilling tool 3, a holder 10 is attached to a distal end of a drive shaft 9 connected to a rotational drive device. An outer tube 11 having a hollow cylindrical shape is attached to a lower portion of the holder 10. The first drilling bit 4 and the guide bush 5 are detachably screwed and attached to a distal end of the outer tube 11.
In the first drilling tool 3, a through hole 12 is formed in the holder 10, so that cooling liquid can be poured in through the through hole 12.
As shown in
The guide bush 5 is provided with the guide hole 6 formed in a main body thereof having a cylindrical shape in a state inclined from a center axis of the outer tube 11 toward outside.
In the second drilling tool 7, the second drilling bit 8 is detachably screwed and attached to a distal end of an inner tube 16 having flexibility. The inner tube 16 has a hollow cylindrical shape and a diameter smaller than that of the outer tube 11 of the first drilling tool 3. The inner tube 16 is connected to a rotational drive device.
As shown in
The second drilling tool 7 includes a protrusion 17 at an inner middle portion of the inner tube 16, so that the protrusion 17 cuts a drilled concrete core having a small diameter. When a second fixing hole 19 to be drilled has a smaller diameter, the protrusion 17 uses a single blade BTA (Boring and Trepanning Association) type toll or a multiple-cutting-blade BTA type tool as the second drilling bit 8, so that it is possible to drill while grinding and discharging concrete.
A method of drilling with the drilling device 1 described above will be explained next.
First, the first drilling bit 4 is attached to the distal end of the first drilling tool 3. Then, the first drilling tool 3 is driven to rotate, so that the first drilling bit 4 drills the first fixing hole 2 in a fixing surface 18 of a structure.
In the next step, the first drilling tool 3 is temporarily pulled out from the first fixing hole 2, and the first drilling bit 4 is removed from the distal end of the first drilling tool 3. Then, the guide bush 5 is attached to the distal end of the first drilling tool 3, and the second drilling bit 8 at the distal end of the second drilling tool 7 is inserted into the guide hole 6 of the guide bush 5. In this state, the first drilling tool 3 is inserted into the first fixing hole 2 again.
In the next step, the second drilling tool 7 is driven to rotate, so that the second drilling bit 8 drills the second fixing hole 19. At this time, the second drilling tool 7 advances along the guide hole 6 of the guide bush 5 in an inclined state. Accordingly, the second fixing hole 19 is formed in a state inclined outward relative to the first fixing hole 2.
In the next step, the second drilling tool 7 is pulled out from the second fixing hole 19 to a position where the second drilling bit 8 is retained in the guide hole 6 of the guide bush 5. In this state, the first drilling tool 3 is rotated 180 degrees together with the second drilling tool 7.
In the next step, the second drilling tool 7 is driven to rotate, so that the second drilling bit 8 drills a second fixing hole 19′. At this time, the second drilling tool 7 advances along the guide hole 6 of the guide bush 5 in an inclined state. Accordingly, the second fixing hole 19′ is formed in a state inclined outward relative to the first fixing hole 2.
In the last step, the second drilling tool 7 is pulled out from the second fixing hole 19, and the first drilling tool 3 is pulled out from the first fixing hole 2.
Accordingly, it is possible to drill the hole having the branched portions in the structure with the drilling device 1.

The anchor bolt 20 shown in
Since the anchor bolt 20 is formed of a shape-memory alloy, tensile strength thereof becomes about three times higher than normal strength. Accordingly, even after the distal end portion is branched into two, the strength of the anchor bolt 20 is still 1.5 times higher than normal strength.
The anchor bolt 21 shown in
The anchor bolt 22 shown in
As described above, the anchor bolts 20, 21, and 22 to be inserted into the first and second fixing holes 2 and 19 are branched into a plurality of portions at the middle portions thereof, and are bent at the middle portion thereof. Accordingly, it is possible to increase a pulling out force after being fixed.
