Abstract

Claims (8)

1. An earth anchor ( 1 ), comprising at least one anchoring part ( 2 ) connectable or connected by a connecting part ( 3 ) to a driving part ( 4 ) for installing the at least one anchoring part ( 2 ) in a desired position in a soil and for connecting to an external structure, wherein the at least one anchoring part ( 2 ) comprises a leading end ( 5 ) and a trailing end ( 6 ), a longitudinal axis extending from the leading end ( 5 ) to the trailing end ( 6 ), a blind bore ( 7 ) extending along a longitudinal axis from the trailing end ( 6 ) of the at least one anchoring part ( 2 ), a through hole ( 8 ) provided on the connecting part ( 3 ), positioned substantially in a middle of the at least one anchoring part ( 2 ) between the leading end ( 5 ) and the trailing end ( 6 ) and a sharp leading part ( 9 ) projecting from the leading end ( 5 ) of the at least one anchoring part ( 2 ), wherein the leading end ( 5 ) is formed as a tapering top, wherein the at least one anchoring part ( 2 ) and the connecting part ( 3 ) are manufactured of a polymer as one piece.

2. The earth anchor according to claim 1 , wherein the earth anchor is a plate anchor, wherein the at least one anchoring part is a plate ( 2 ) connected substantially perpendicular to the driving part ( 4 ) by the connecting part ( 3 ).

3. The earth anchor according to claim 1 , wherein the earth anchor is a screw anchor and the at least one anchoring part ( 2 ) is at least a part of a helical screw connected permanently to the driving part ( 4 ) by the connecting part ( 3 ).

4. The earth anchor according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one anchoring part ( 2 ) is essentially flat.

5. The earth anchor according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one anchoring part ( 2 ), is essentially cylindrical.

6. The earth anchor according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer includes a Polycarbonate (PC) or Nano-Polymers or Bio-Polymers or Nano-Bio Polymers or Nano-Bio Filaments or Bio-Filaments.

7. A method of production of the earth anchor according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one anchoring part ( 2 ) and the connecting part ( 3 ) is produced on a 3D printer by using a polymer filament designed as a material for printing on the 3D printer.

8. The earth anchor according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one anchoring part ( 2 ) is essentially elongated.
