To all who-m itmay concern:
Be'it' known that I, HOWELL M. THOMAS, a. citizen of'the United States, residin at Colorado Sprin s, in the county of. El aso and State of Colorado, have invented a new and useful Guychor,'of which the following is a specification.
' his invention relates to anchors for guy e and more particularly to an anchor especially designed for use in coal mines for anchoring-the guy wires ofcutting and similar machinery. The Object of. the invention is to provide an anchor including a stem having a sup ortmg member slidably mounted thereon an carrymg a plurality of anchoring-spurs or arms,
said arms or. spurs being adapted to be embedded in the coal by a cone shaped block or expander when a longitudinal pull is exerted on the stem.
A further ob'ect is to form the stem with a circumferentia groove or depression to permit free lateral movement of-the arms or spurs when the same are moved to expanded position. i
A still further object of the invention is generally to improve this class of devices so as to increase their-utility, durability and efficiency as well as to reduce the cost of manufacture. Further objects and advantages will appear in the following description, it being understood that various changes in form, proportions and minor details of construction may be resorted to within the scope. of
In the accompanying drawings for l a part of this specification: Figure 1 is a side elevation part y in section of structed' in accordance with my invention showing the arms in position to be embedded in the ground. 'Fig. 2 is a side elevation Fig. 3 is a transverse sectiona viewv taken on the line 3'3 of- Fig. 1. Similar numerals of reference indicatecorresponding parts in all of the figures of the drawings. v The improved anchor forming the subjectmatter of the present invention includes a shank or stem 5 having one end thereof threaded at 6 and its opposite end rovided with a-hook ,7 for engagement wit a wire 8. Slidably mounted on the stem 5 1s a an anchor con i l Specification of Letters Patent.
