Abstract:
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for fastening collapsible anchors. The apparatus comprises a shaft, a screw coupler, and a sleeve which has a hollow interior passage and a mouth that connects to an anchor head. The sleeve moves along the longitudinal axis of the shaft and rotates about that axis independent of the rotation of the shaft. By engaging the screw coupler and mouth to a collapsible anchor, a user can set the anchor by rotating one piece relative to the other. The apparatus may also include a handle or be designed as a drill attachment. The apparatus may also include a stabilizer such as a handle on the shaft. The shaft and sleeve may be designed to fit a variety of different screw couplers and mouths. Additionally, the apparatus may make use of ratchet collars to provide additional ways to set the anchors.
