[0005] Optionally, the pile body and the gravity cover plate are welded together.

[0006] Optionally, the anchor eye point is used for connecting anchor chain.

[0007] In a second aspect, a use method of the anti-pulling composite pile anchor is provided, which comprises: First, the vibration pile mat is connected with the vibration pile driver, the pile body is penetrated into the seabed through vibration pile driving, after the pile driving is completed, the seawater in the grouting cavity is discharged through the drainage hole, after the drainage is completed, the grouting cavity is grouted through the grouting hole, after the grouting is completed, the pile body and the gravity cover plate will be further embedded into the soil under the action of gravity, finally the spiral bearing plate is embedded into the seabed by rotating the bolt.

[0008] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows: The present application is a composite structure of pile anchor, gravity anchor and spiral anchor, which has excellent vertical uplift resistance and oblique bearing capacity. The present application is provided with a cover plate which can enhance the overturning resistance and reduce the risk of bending damage of the pile body. The spiral bearing plate increases the bearing area of the device and greatly improves the uplift resistance. Compared with the traditional pile anchor, the present application has higher multi-directional bearing efficiency. Compared with the gravity anchor, the present application greatly improves the bearing efficiency and has higher bearing capacity under the same amount of steel. The spiral bearing plate of the present application provides additional uplift resistance as an auxiliary component of the pile anchor, has a smaller overall size and avoids the problem of difficult installation of large spiral anchors. The present application has simple structure and high economic efficiency, and can achieve excellent bearing performance under various geological conditions. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
