COLLAPSABLE ANCHOR
20230043734 · 2023-02-09 ·

An anchor system including an anchor having a body member and a first arm pivotally coupled to the body member. The first arm is movable between a closed position wherein the first arm is positioned adjacent to the body member and an open position wherein at least part of the first arm is spaced away from the body member. The system further includes a second arm pivotally coupled to the body member and movable between a closed position wherein the second arm is positioned adjacent to the body member and an open position wherein at least part of the second arm is spaced away from the body member. At least one of the first or second arms has a cavity that is exposed when the at least one of the first or second arms is in the open position. The at least one of the first or second arms includes a protrusion extending therefrom.

BIONIC HIGH HOLDING POWER ANCHOR

The present invention discloses a bionic high holding power anchor, which includes an anchor rod, a suspension clasp coupled with one end of the anchor rod and an anchor fluke hinged with the other end of the anchor rod, wherein a plurality of fluke heads arranged at equal intervals are extended from a front end of the anchor fluke, fin-like streamlined balance wings are arranged at two sides of the anchor fluke; the fluke head is in a shape of triangle-like taper containing a plane side wall and two curved side walls, the plane side wall is an isosceles triangle, the two curved side walls are smooth curved surfaces, and the two smooth curved surfaces are symmetrical around a normal plane of the plane side wall. According to the bionic high holding power anchor of the present invention, the balance wings are arranged at the two sides of the anchor fluke, a body is avoided from being turned completely and the anchor reaches to a soil layer at a correct working angle during a process that the anchor is thrown into water; and a longitudinal dimension of the anchor is increased, so that an anti-turning property of the anchor in the soil layer is improved significantly, and a risk of anchor dragging is reduced.

Foldable anchor
09764798 · 2017-09-19 ·

A foldable anchor storable on watercraft with limited storage and deck space and which secures watercraft in place in sandy and soft bottom boating areas and is releasable from underwater objects. The foldable anchor includes a forward anchor body with an internal weighted ballast on an anchor body and a two-part shank pivotably attached to a top end of the anchor body which allows the shank to pivot from an elevated position to a lowered position relative the anchor body. The shank has a rear portion and a front portion pivotably disposed thereon and foldable against the rear portion. Stabilizer wings between the front and rear portions assist the anchor body to roll into a correct upright position. Locking pins secure each of the rear and front portions together and the rear portion and anchor body together at selected angles. D-rings and breakable zip ties secure the shank to an anchor rope.
