Baseball and softball base anchoring system

Abstract

A tapered box that is buried in the ground with a removable lid that is used to anchor baseball bases in place but also allows for them to be easily removed when the playing surface is being groomed. This novel system eliminates the problems created when soil accidentally falls into the present art anchoring systems. Additionally no concrete is needed to hold the anchor in place; non-corrosive materials are used to eliminate rusting parts from adhering to one another and, because the lid is made of a rubberized material it has shock absorbing properties to help prevent injuries.

1 . This invention unlike other base anchor system eliminates the need to “fish” soil out of the base receptacle, it comes ready to install (no concrete needed), requires no ground anchor plugs, is non-corrosive, and has shock absorbing capabilities.
