	Single-piece, pre-shaped anchor - United States Patent 4,963,062
		Typical of such anchor bolt assemblies is the type disclosed in the Giannuzzi patent 3,766,819 in which a cone at the rear of the bolt is caused to advance toward an expansible shell encircling the bolt when the bolt is rotated, the expanded shell acting to anchor the bolt in the hole.
		The anchor is constituted by a shank 13 fabricated of carbon or stainless steel or other material having a circular cross section whose diameter is constant throughout the length of the shank, the tip 14 of the shank being of reduced diameter and chamfered to facilitate insertion in hole 10.
		After the bend is formed in the hollow metal shank, the metal is tempered at a temperature appropriate thereto to impart a memory to the bend, such that when the bend is thereafter forcibly deformed, it seeks to recover its original shape.

	Automatic setting tool for masonry anchors - Patent 4890779
		The anchor is constituted by a pre-shaped shank formed of resilient material whose memory is such that when the shank is forcibly deformed it seeks to maintain its original shape, the shank being integral, with a drivable head and having a maximum cross section which does not substantially exceed the diameter of the hole.
		When, therefore, the anchor is driven into the masonry hole, this force seeks to straighten out the bend, the resultant deformation thereof exerting outward pressures against large contact areas of the wall of the hole at the peak and at the bases, which multi-level pressures strongly resist axial withdrawal of the shank.
		The anchor is constituted by a shank 13 fabricated of carbon or work hardened stainless steel, or other material having a circular cross section whose diameter is constant throughout the length of the shank, the tip 14 of the shank being of reduced diameter and chamfered to facilitate insertion in hole 10.

	Method and apparatus for recapture of hooked endoprosthesis - Patent 5843167
		The anchor assembly is attached to the graft so that an end of the assembly protrudes axially beyond the ends of the graft to enable the protruding ends of the anchor to engage the wall of the body lumen when the device is deployed in the patient.
		The anchor assembly may take the form of a single anchor in which its elongate wire segments are longer than the length of the graft so that the ends of the single anchor can protrude from the ends of the graft or may comprise two shorter anchors attached to the respective ends of the graft.
		Thus, the present invention enables an anchor to be contracted from a deployed configuration in which the anchor is fully expanded with its hooks in engagement with the blood vessel wall to a retracted low profile configuration in which the hooks are disposed radially inwardly of the circumference of the pod lumen.

		As soon as catenary is lost, a vessel’s anchor is much more likely to be jerked out of the bottom or some part of the overall rode more likely to break—and it usually happens at the end of a swing when combined forces are greatest.
		After the anchor is set, the sentinel is typically deployed from the bow of a boat with a light line leading back from the sentinel to the boat for recovery, control, and placement.
		If the anchor is holding, the boat may periodically slew off to one side as it yaws to a fresh breeze, but it will always come back to the wind, the rode will come tight, and bearings or ranges on shore won’t change.
