Guy Anchor Reinforcement
US Patent:
2012000, Jan 12, 2012
Filed:
Sep 24, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/890565
Inventors:
Jaime REYES - Grapevine TX, US
Hanming You - Carrollton TX, US
Hanming You - Carrollton TX, US
International Classification:
E04H 12/00, E04B 1/00, E02D 5/74
US Classification:
52146, 52156, 5274521
Abstract:
A reinforcing system for a guy anchor used in a guyed or additionally guyed tower includes a concrete structure formed around the guy anchor. The concrete structure has a top surface slightly above grade level. The reinforcing system further includes a supplemental anchor shaft. The supplemental anchor shaft is attached to the existing anchor head and extends down into the concrete structure, where it is retained and encased therein. The concrete structure preferably has a base and at least one wall that extends down from the base and has a surface that faces the tower to resist horizontal forces. The reinforcing system is sufficiently strong to keep the guy anchor in place even if the original anchor shaft completely corrodes. The supplemental anchor shaft does not generally come into contact with soil. It therefore resists corrosion and is expected to provide a long service life.

Modular Guy Anchor
US Patent:
8375651, Feb 19, 2013
Filed:

Assignee:
ATC IP LLC - Boston MA
International Classification:
E04H 12/20
US Classification:
52151
Abstract:
A modular guy anchor includes an anchor head and an anchor shaft. The anchor head includes a tubular region for receiving the anchor shaft. The anchor shaft has one end that extends into or through the tubular region and is retained therein. The anchor shaft is preferably galvanized steel coated over at least a portion of its length with a corrosion-resistant material. The corrosion-resistant material is preferably applied over any portion of the anchor shaft that is exposed to soil during normal use. The modularity of the guy anchor facilitates stocking, shipping, and installation, while the corrosion resistance of the anchor shaft promotes longevity.
