Abstract

A portable anchoring apparatus that includes a first connecting arm having a connecting hole, a second connecting arm, a first anchoring arm and a second anchoring arm. The first connecting arm and the second connecting arm are connected in overlap and parallel one to the other by a ratchet mechanism that includes an opening ratchet button. The first connecting arm and the first anchoring arm are connected to each other by an axial connector that has an opening button. The second connecting arm and the second anchoring arm are connected to each other by an axial connector that has an opening button.

Claims

1. A portable anchoring apparatus comprising:

a first connecting arm;

a second connecting arm;

a first anchoring arm; and

a second anchoring arm;

wherein at least one of the connecting arms comprises a connecting means,

wherein said first connecting arm and said second connecting arm are connected to each other by a ratchet mechanism which comprises an opening ratchet button;

wherein said first connecting arm and said first anchoring arm are connected to each other by an axial connector comprising an opening button; and

wherein said second connecting arm and said second anchoring arm are connected to each other by an axial connector comprising an opening button.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising:

a first cam locking system comprising;

a rounded cam;

a pedal; and

a lever comprising a ball;

wherein the rounded cam is integrated perpendicularly in the first anchoring arm and adapted to be axially connected to the pedal via an eccentric hole;

wherein the lever is connected perpendicularly to the rounded cam through an elongated slot comprising a niche; and

a second cam locking system comprising;

a rounded cam;

a pedal; and

a lever comprising a ball;

wherein the rounded cam is integrated perpendicularly in the second anchoring arm and adapted to be axially connected to the pedal via an eccentric hole;

wherein the lever is connected perpendicularly to the rounded cam through an elongated slot comprising a niche.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising:

a rotatable extension arm comprising a longitudinal slot,

wherein the second anchoring arm is connected to the rotated extension arm via an axial connecting means.

4. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising:

a first connecting arm rubber friction strip;

a second connecting arm rubber friction strip;

a first anchoring arm rubber friction strip;

a second anchoring arm rubber friction strip;

a rotated extension arm rubber friction strip;

a first anchoring arm elastic rubber piece;

a second anchoring arm elastic rubber piece;

a first pedal cover; and

a second pedal cover.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising a hole adjacent to the axial connector that connects the first connecting arm and the first anchoring arm as a connecting means.

6. A method for using a portable anchoring apparatus comprising:

obtaining a portable anchoring apparatus;

attaching the portable anchoring apparatus to a roof, wherein a first connecting arm is placed on top of the roof;

placing a first anchoring arm along the wall starting from the top of the roof, wherein the axial connector is used to affix the first connecting arm and the first anchoring arm in a required angle;

opening the second connecting arm to an extent that matches the width of the roof;

using the axial connector between the second connecting arm and the second anchoring arm to affix the required angle between them; and

threading a rope through a connecting means and securing its end to assure that the rope will be stretched as necessary while abseiling.

7. The method of claim 6 further comprising the use of a rotated extension arm.

8. The method of claim 6 further comprising the use of a locking cam system.
