Nail, in particular for use in a nail setting tool The present invention relates to a nail, in particular for use in a nail setting tool, which consists of a predominantly lignocellulosic material and has a nail shank at the front end of which a nail tip in the form of a conical round tip is provided, and at the rear end region of which a head region is formed. Furthermore, the invention relates to a nail strip comprising a plurality of such nails which are in-serted into corresponding openings of a punched tape.

2 wood with the aid of nail setting tools such as pneumatic nailers without pre-drilling the wood material. Reference should be made in particular to WO
2016/1809001 A of the applicant, from which a nail strip for use in a nail setting tool is known, the nails of which consist of wood or wood-based materials and are connected to one another by connecting means, which are automatically sheared off when the nails are set. The nail tip of the nail is conical in shape, whereby the ratio of the length of the nail tip to the smallest thickness of the nail shank is between 1.5 and 3.
m It has been shown that this nail tip formation can lead to splitting of the compo-nents to be joined when the nails are set, if these consist of anisotropic building materials such as wood. Another disadvantage is that the production of the nail strips by pressing and/or milling is laborious.
The task of the present invention is therefore to provide a nail of the type men-tioned above that can also be driven into wood-based materials without the risk of splitting them.
This task is solved by a nail of the type mentioned above having a tip angle of the nail tip > 40 . The tip angle of the nail tip is preferably in the range of 45 and 60 , with an appropriate angle of 45 or 60 . However, larger angles such as 90 are also possible.
It has been shown that nails having tip angles in the indicated ranges and in par-ticular greater than 50 have a significantly lower splitting effect on nailed com-ponents than nails with a tip angle smaller than 20 , for example.

3 Although nails made of woody plant material have an increased pull-out re-sistance compared to those made of steel of the same dimensions and therefore do not require a head in most cases, there are applications in which not only the pull-out resistance but also the pull-through resistance is important. In order to .. increase the pull-through resistance, but to maintain the production advantages of pin-like nails compared to nails with a head, an embodiment of the invention provides that the head area is thickened relative to the nail shank and widens continuously, in particular towards the free end of the nail.
Likewise, at least one recess extending in the axial direction of the nail shank may be provided in the upper end face of the head region, which recess is de-signed such that a wedge can be driven axially into it in order to press the mate-rial webs of the head region present adjacent to the recess outwards. Expedi-ently the at least one recess is slot-shaped and penetrates the head area from one edge area to the opposite edge area. In particular, only a single slit-shaped recess is provided, which passes through the head area centrally and cuts the longitudinal axis of the nail shank.
In this embodiment, a wedge is driven axially into the recess after a nail has been driven or driven into a substrate, so that the material webs adjacent to the recess are pressed apart. This causes the entire head area to be deformed outwards, resulting in increased contact pressure against the substrate material.
If this is soft enough, the substrate material is even compressed. In this case the head region and the corresponding section receive a slight cone shape similar to that of a screw with a countersunk head through the nail channel section formed in the substrate material. The higher contact forces in the head area and the conical shape significantly increase the pull-through resistance of the nails.

The higher contact forces in the head area and the conical shape significantly increase the pull-through resistance of the nails.
4 The depth of the recesses/slits can be selected variably, but should be dimen-sioned so that the adjacent material webs of the head region can be sufficiently pressed apart. For this purpose, according to an embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the recess extends from the upper end face of the head region of the nail over an axial length of at least 3 mm, in particular at least 4 mm and preferably at least 5 mm into the head region.
In a further embodiment of the invention, it is intended that several longitudinal io grooves running parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction of the nail shank, preferably parallel to the longitudinal axis of the nail shank, are formed in the outer circumferential surface of the nail shank. The longitudinal grooves can extend over the entire length of the nail shank and be evenly distributed along the circumference of the nail shank. The shape of the longitudinal grooves can be freely chosen. However, according to one embodiment of the invention, it is intended that they are in the form of notches with an approximately triangular cross-section.
Because the cylindrical shank is not smooth, but ribbed with a star-shaped cross-section, the pull-out resistance of the nails is further increased.
The nail may consist of wood and/or a wood material, in particular an organically bonded wood material, preferably a resin-bonded laminated wood or a res-in-bonded fibre composite material which contains lignosecellulosic fibres from annual plants.
It has been shown that good results are achieved if the organically bonded wood material contains phenolic resin as a synthetic resin. In particular, the organically bonded wood-based material should contain synthetic resin in an amount of at least 30% by weight, in particular at least 35% by weight, with the synthetic resin

5 content preferably being 40% by weight.
In a preferred manner, the nails according to the invention consist of a material with a density > 0.65 g/cm3, in particular a density > 0.85 g/cm3 and preferably a density > 1.0 g/cm3, the density being in particular 1.3 g/cm3.
This means that deciduous woods can be used as a material for the nails ac-cording to the invention. Hard woods include deciduous woods with densities from 0.65 g/cm3, such as copper beech (Fagus sylvatica), hornbeam (Carpinus betulus), maple (Acer pseudoplatanus or A. platanoides), preferably deciduous woods with densities greater than 0.85 g/cm3, such as e.g. pernambuc (Caesal-pinia echinata), bangkirai (Shorea ssp.) or some types of rosewood (Dalbergia ssp, Machaerium ssp.), in particular preferably deciduous woods with densities greater than 1.0 g/cm3, such as bongossi (Lophira alata) or lignum (Guaiacum ssp.).
Suitable wooden materials that can be produced without the addition of binding agents include compressed woods with densities greater than 0.65 g/cm3, in particular with densities greater than 0.85 g/cm3 and preferably with densities greater than 1.0 g/cm3. These can be produced, for example, according to W094/20273 A.

These can be produced, for example, according to W094/20273 A.
6 Non-compressed veneer layer woods and plywoods made of types of wood with sufficient density (see above) are suitable wooden materials that are produced with the addition of binding agents. The commercially available veneer layer woods with sufficient density include e.g. BauBuche made by Pollmeier Mas-s sivholz GmbH & Co.KG, Creuzburg with a density of 0.68 g/cm3. Plywoods with veneer layers of equal thickness ¨ so-called multiplex boards ¨ made of beech or birch with densities of 0.7 g/cm3, are offered by various manufacturers such as e.g. UPM Plywood, Lahti, Finland. The preferred wooden materials with portions of binding agent include compressed veneer layer woods, compressed laminated wood and plywoods, e.g. made of beech veneer with average to high compression with densities of 1.1 g/cm3 to 1.4 g/cm3, such as e.g. synthetic resin compressed wood according to DIN 7707.
Structurally very similar to the wooden materials are compressed and glued materials made of woody plant material, e.g. composed of monocotyledons that include, among others, tissue from palm and bamboo growth. Compressed bamboo products are known, for example, under the designation CoBAM (com-pressed Bamboo). CoBAM has densities of 0.95 to 1.25 g/cm3.
Generally the nail shank can have any cross-section. For example, it can be oval or polygonal. In a preferred manner, however, the nail shank has a circular diameter. Preferably the diameter of the nail shank or the smallest nail thickness is between 2 mm and 8 mm for an oval or polygonal nail, especially between 3.5 and 6 mm and preferably between 4 and 5 mm.
According to a further embodiment of the invention it is intended that the nails have a nail head in the form of a semi-lens-shaped dome which projects radially

According to a further embodiment of the invention it is intended that the nails have a nail head in the form of a semi-lens-shaped dome which projects radially
7 outwards with respect to the shank axis. However, the nail shank is preferably cut off at its end opposite the nail tip at an angle of 900 to the shank axis.
The nail length (head + shank + tip) usually varies between 20 mm and 90 mm, in particular between 30 mm and 70 mm, preferably between 40 mm and 60 mm.
The nails according to the invention are preferably produced individually and then magazined. They can be loaded into a nail setting tool either individually or in bulk via a storage container which feeds the nails to a nail setting tool -ar-ranged according to the one-sided alignment of the nail tips. Nails are preferably magazined in coils with punched tape into which the nails are inserted. During insertion, the nails are pushed out of the punched tape without shearing off the fastener, in this case the punched tape. The structure of the perforated tape re-mains intact and is not shot into the components or distributed around the work area in the form of fragments, as is the case with sheared off fasteners. The undamaged punched tape can either be disposed of as a whole or reused.
The nails according to the invention can be used to be nailed in by hand.
Alter-.. natively, they can also be shot into a substrate using a nail setting tool, for ex-ample a pneumatic nailer.

8 Figure 1 the front end area of nails with different nail tips in front view, Figure 2a an embodiment of an inventive nail with a slit-shaped recess pro-vided at the head area, Figure 2b the nail from Figure 2a with a wedge driven into the slot-shaped recess, Figure 3 a possible cross-section of the nail shank of a nail according to the invention and Figure 4 an alternative embodiment of a cross-section of the nail shank.
Figures 2a and 2b schematically show a nail 1 according to this invention. The is nail consists mainly of a lignocellulosic material. In the present case it consists of a synthetic resin-bonded laminated wood which contains 35 % by weight phenolic resin as synthetic resin and thus has a density of more than 1 g/cm3, specifically just under 1.3 g/cm3.
The nail 1 has a nail shank la, at the lower end of which a nail tip lb is formed with a circular cross-section, i.e. a conical round tip. The nail tip lb has an axial length which is approximately as large as the diameter of the nail shank la, so that the tip angle of the nail tip lb is 600 .
As shown in Figure ld, the tip angle can also be 90 , for example. It is essential that it is larger than 40 so that the splitting effect on nailed components is

The nail 1 has a nail shank la, at the lower end of which a nail tip lb is formed with a circular cross-section, i.e. a conical round tip. The nail tip lb has an axial length which is approximately as large as the diameter of the nail shank la, so that the tip angle of the nail tip lb is 600 .
As shown in Figure ld, the tip angle can also be 90 , for example. It is essential that it is larger than 40 so that the splitting effect on nailed components is
9 smaller than with nails whose tip angle is smaller, for example at 200, as shown in Figure la.
The upper end region of the nail shank 1a is cut off perpendicular to the longitu-dinal axis of the nail. Thus the nail 1 has a head region 1c, which has the same cross-section as the nail shank la. As can be seen in the drawing, the head re-gion 1c is further provided with a slot-shaped recess 2 which extends axially from the upper end face of nail 1 over a length of several millimeters into the head region 1c or the nail shank la along a longitudinal central plane of the nail 1 and penetrates the head region 1c or the nail shank la from one edge region thereof to the opposite edge region thereof. A wedge 3 can be driven into the recess 2 after or before the nail 1 is driven into a component or a substrate, so that the webs of material limiting the recess 2 are pressed apart and the head region 1c widens as indicated in Figure 2b. The expansion increases the press-ing forces between the head area 1c and the component into which the nail 1 with the head area 1c is/is driven, and as a result the pull-through resistance of nail 1 is increased.
The nail shank la and the head area 1c can have a smooth surface. However, the circumferential surface of the nail 1 in the region of the nail shank la and the nail head 1c is ribbed in a preferred manner. In other words, the nail shank 1a or nail head lc is provided with longitudinal grooves 4 which extend over the entire length of the nail shank 1a/ of the nail head 1c and are formed here in the form of notches with a triangular cross-section, so that wall sections with trapezoidal (see Figure 3) or triangular (see Figure 4) cross-section are formed.
