  • Patent number: 5317844
    Abstract: A universal pole anchoring device for supporting utility poles vertically over a hard surface such as rock, concrete or the like is disclosed. The device comprises a harness assembly connected about a base section of a pole to be supported on the hard surface. The harness is secured by bolts all about the base section. The harness assembly is comprised of harness members each defined by an anchor bolt attachment pipe having a pair of pole engaging clamps connected thereto in spaced alignment. The clamps support the attachment pipe spaced from and at an outwardly depending angle when the harness is secured to a pole. The harness assembly also has a predetermined number of harness numbers interconnected by the connecting bolts about the base section and dependent on the diameter of the pole. An anchor bolt assembly is connectible to each of the attachment pipes of the harness members to anchor the harness assembly in the hard surface to support the pole vertically thereover.

  • Patent number: 5133164
    Abstract: A pole anchoring device for supporting large diameter poles vertically over a hard surface such as rock, concrete or the like. The device comprises three or more harness members which are interconnectable to one another about a base section of a pole. Each harness member has a pole engaging section for attachment against a pole and a bolt support section spaced outwardly from the pole engaging section. An anchor bolt is guidingly positioned in the bolt support section of each of the harness members and extends along an axis substantially parallel to the axis of the pole and spaced a predetermined distance away from the bolt support section. An anchoring assembly is secured to the anchor bolt and disposed below the bolt support section.

  • Patent number: 4830184
    Abstract: A preformed wire spacer for spacing nested formed galvanized metal material pieces having a nestable profile and wherein at least two stacks of the nested material pieces are disposed and secured in side-by-side relationship to form a bundle. The spacer comprises a metal wire treated with a corrosive resistant coating and formed of similar profile as the cross-section of at least part of the profile of two of the material pieces when positioned in side-by-side relationship. The spacer has a cross-section to provide reduced contact with the surface of opposed nested ones of the pieces when positioned therebetween whereby to provide air flow and minimum water retention between the nested material pieces to substantially reduce the formation of white rust.

  • Patent number: 4218858
    Abstract: An anchor bracket for securing an article on a support surface. The anchor bracket comprises a clamp device for securement to the article and at least two anchor rods for anchoring in hard ground such as rock. Each of the anchor rods has a top end and a bottom end section with the bottom end section having an expanding end. A securement sleeve is provided about the bottom end section of each anchor rod and has at least an expandable section whereby the expandable section of the securement sleeve will be caused to expand by relative axial displacement with the expanding end of the anchor rod for anchoring the bottom end section in a hole of proper cross-section extending through the surface. The clamp device is attachable to the anchor rods for securement of the article on the support surface.
