Tilted Ground Anchoring System Stability
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing ground anchoring systems face challenges in providing stability and resistance to mechanical stress, especially on varying ground conditions, and require complex installation processes, including excavation and material hardening, which are costly and time-consuming, and often fail to maintain stability under lateral and vertical pressures.
Innovation Solution
A ground anchoring system comprising at least two elongated tubular guiding members that allow anchoring rods to be inserted at an angle, providing stability and resistance through a tilting mechanism that distributes mechanical forces effectively without the need for preliminary ground or object preparation, and can be used on various ground types without excavation or material hardening.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If vertical driving is used for anchoring, then installation is simple, but stability is insufficient on various natural grounds
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies asymmetry by tilting the anchoring rod relative to the vertical axis, creating an asymmetric driving direction that improves stability on natural grounds while maintaining operational simplicity through the guiding member mechanism
2Strength
If concrete casting is used for high load anchoring, then anchoring strength is improved, but installation time and complexity increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the time-consuming concrete casting process from the anchoring system, replacing it with a direct driving mechanism that achieves high strength anchoring without requiring excavation, material casting, or hardening time
Solution Approach 2:
The anchoring rod is designed as a standalone component that can be directly driven into the ground without permanent concrete foundations, enabling quick installation and potential reusability while maintaining high anchoring strength
3Force
If screw system is used for anchoring, then resistance to traction is improved, but installation difficulty increases on rocky bottom
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the driving parameters by using a tilted driving angle and guiding member mechanism that allows the anchoring rod to be driven at an angle, making installation feasible on rocky bottoms while maintaining traction resistance through the angled configuration
4Reliability
If tilted driving is used for anchoring, then stability is improved, but guiding member length must be excessively long
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses another dimension by tilting the anchoring rod at an angle to the vertical axis, creating a triangular force distribution that improves stability while allowing the use of shorter guiding members compared to purely vertical driving

AI summary
A ground (G) anchoring system (100) for various objects (O), such as building structures, warranties great stability, strength to mechanical stress and simplicity of installation, although having a structure of easy and economical manufacturing and comprising at least two elongated tubular guiding members (2), having a closed cross section and that are apt to define a tilted inserting direction (I), and inside which an anchoring rod (5) is inserted. The elongated members (2) are formed as distinct bodies fixed to a substantially flat developing supporting surface (1, 11), to which the object (O) to be anchored to the ground is connected and they have a longitudinal extension at least equal to about the distance (D) between two adjoining inserting end (21).
