ABSTRACT:
An anchor for securing a mobile home or the like in position on the ground comprises a hollow tubular anchor post having locking arms pivotably mounted at a lower end thereof for movement from an entry position wherein the locking arms lie flat against the post to a locking position wherein the locking arms are pivoted downwardly and outwardly from the post. The anchor includes a fluid jet embedding mechanism comprising an inlet for pressurized water at the upper end of the hollow anchor post and an outlet for pressurized water at the lower end of the anchor post. The anchor is embedded in the ground by directing a stream of water under pressure down the interior of the tubular anchor post and directly against the ground beneath the anchor post. This displaces the ground below the anchor and causes the anchor to embed itself firmly into the ground.
