Anchor for the vessels

Abstract

The invention is an anchor which constitutes a certain weight in the water, when dropped into the water by means of a connection like a rope or chain connected to the mentioned vessel in order to stabilize the vessels at a required area or point over the sea surface. It has an expandable reservoir which allows the water transmission inside from the outside, keeps the material located inside and is connected to the vessel with the connection and contains a water absorbent material which expands and gets heavy when interacting with water located in the reservoir. When the water absorbent material interacts with water it turns into a mass of thick solid gel and becomes heavier inside the reservoir in which it is located, and reaches the sufficient weight that the reservoir can stabilize the vessel at its place.

1 . An anchor for a vessel presenting a certain weight in water, when dropped into the water by means of a connection like at least one of a rope and a chain connected to the vessels, in order to stabilize the vessels at a required area or point over the surface of the water said anchor comprising an expandable feature which allows the water transmission inside from the outside, keeps the material located inside and contains a water absorbent material which expands and gets heavy when interacting with water inside a reservoir connected to the vessel with the connection. 
     
     
         2 . The anchor as set forth in  claim 1  wherein; the water absorbent material is a super absorbent polymer. 
     
     
         3 . The anchor as set forth in  claim 2  wherein the super absorbent polymer is a sodium polyacrylate super absorbent. 
     
     
         4 . The anchor as set forth in  claim 1  wherein the water absorbent material interacts with water, inside the reservoir where it is located and turns into a mass that becomes a solid thick gel and gets heavier wherein the weight of the reservoir that increases sufficiently to stabilize the vessel. 
     
     
         5 . The anchor as set forth in  claim 4  including an evacuation mechanism constituted over the reservoir in order to remove the mass out of the reservoir the vessel. 
     
     
         6 . The anchor as set forth in  claim 5  including fastening elements to provide an opening, wide enough to allow the mass to leave the reservoir easily, being controlled from the vessel. 
     
     
         7 . The anchor as set forth in  claim 6 , wherein the fastening elements include at least one of a zip fastener and a Velcro fastener.
