The present invention pertains to a boat bar anchor that is used to anchor a boat to a rocky seabed.
The inventor of the present invention is a boat captain who has vast experience in anchoring boats to rocky seabeds.
Anchors that are presently used to anchor boats to rocky seabeds tend to often get lost since they cannot be easily dislodged from the rocks in which they are anchored on.
The anchor of the present invention is designed to penetrate an aperture of a rocky seabed when a boat is moved in a first direction and to easily be withdrawn from the aperture when the boat is moved in an opposite direction.
The present invention is a boat anchor that is comprised of a linear bar that has at least four y-wings that run along the length of the linear bar.
The linear bar anchor's y-wings are designed to embed into apertures of the rocky seabed in a manner that will allow the boat anchor to be anchored on the rocky seabed, so long as a driving force is applied to the anchor. The y-wings are also designed to be easily withdrawn from the rocky seabed when a pulling force is applied to the anchor.
The present invention addresses the need of having a boat anchor that can easily be dislodged from a rocky seabed after the boat anchor is anchored on the rocky seabed.
The present invention is directed to a boat bar anchor that is used to anchor to a rocky seabed.
The boat bar anchor comprises of a linear bar that has at least four y-wings that run along the length of the linear bar. A first end of the linear bar has a first anchor shackle receiver, and a second end of the linear bar has a second anchor shackle receiver, each shackle receiver receives an anchor shackle, the anchor shackles are configured to receive an anchor chain that is secured to a boat.
An object of the present invention is to provide a boat anchor that can be anchored into a rocky seabed.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a boat anchor that can easily be withdrawn from the rocky seabed once the boat anchor is anchored to the rocky seabed.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a boat anchor that will not be lost after being anchored to a rocky seabed.
These and other features, aspects, and advantages of the present invention will become better understood with regards to the following description, appended claims, and drawings where:
As seen in
The linear boat anchor 100 comprises of a linear bar 10 that has a front side 10a and a rear side 10b, the linear bar 10 defines a first receiver 12 on the front side 10a and a second receiver 14 on the rear side 10b, the linear bar 10 defines at least four y-wings 16 that run laterally along a length of the linear bar 10. A first shackle 20 is attached to the first receiver 12. A second shackle 22 is attached to the second receiver 14. A first chain 30 is attached to the first shackle 20, the first chain 30 is also attached to an anchor ring 40. And, a second chain 32 is attached the second shackle 22, the second chain is also attached to the anchor ring 40, the first chain 30 and the second chain 32 have a same length, the anchor ring 40 is configured to receive an anchor chain 50 that is secured to a boat 60.
In preferred embodiments of the present invention, the linear bar 10 is made of either of galvanized steel or stainless steel.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the linear bar 10 measures one foot and six inches, and the first chain 30 and the second chain 32 measure three feet.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the linear bar 10 measures two feet, and the first chain 30 and the second chain 32 measure four feet.
The embodiments of the linear boat anchor described herein are exemplary and numerous modifications, combinations, variations, and rearrangements can be readily envisioned to achieve an equivalent result, all of which are intended to be embraced within the scope of the appended claims. Further, nothing in the above-provided discussions of the linear boat anchor should be construed as limiting the invention to an embodiment or a combination of embodiments. The scope of the invention is defined by the description, drawings, and claims.
