Ground Anchor
Abstract (Figures 1 & 6) A ground anchor G having a hollow tubular body 1 adapted to accommodate a spigot portion of a drive tool such that the spigot portion is adapted to sit flush with or slightly protrudes through and open end the hollow tubular body. An attachment 3 situated on the hollow tubular body 1 such that the longitudinal axis of the attachment 3 is offset to the central longitudinal axis of the hollow tubular body 1. A tie rod 4 pivotally connected to a connecting portion on the attachment 3. The ground anchor G upon insertion into the ground by the drive tool, when a pulling force applied to the tie rod 4 causes the hollow tubular body 1, due to the offset positioning of the attachment 3 relative to the central longitudinal axis of the hollow tubular portion 1, to pivot and transversely so as to cross lock across the preformed hole in order to resist and prevent the hollow tubular body 1 portion and hence the ground anchor G from being removed from the ground.
