Abstract

A three-dimensionally-adjustable spike for securing a post comprises: two C-shaped walls, two wrench-accessible openings formed in the two C-shaped walls, a base molded to the two C-shaped walls, two post-elevating struts welded to the base, post-clamping screws screwed into the two C-shaped walls and the post, convex bolts each having a convex bolt bottom, concave upper washers each having an upper concave surface engaging with the convex bolt bottom, concave lower washers each having a lower concave surface, convex locking nuts each having a convex nut top engaging with the lower concave surface for three-dimensionally adjusting and securing the stanchion base and the post perpendicularly to the ground, a hammer plate, plate nuts welded to the hammer plate for stationarily securing the convex locking bolts to the hammer plate, spiral blades, offset spiral shovels, and a spike welded to the spiral blades, the offset spiral shovels, and the hammer plate.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A three-dimensionally-adjustable spike system for securing a post comprising:
a three-dimensionally-adjustable post-securing stanchion system comprising:
a first three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped wall,
a second three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped wall,
a first wrench accessible opening formed in and between said first and said second three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped walls,
a second wrench accessible opening formed in and between said first and said second three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped walls,
a three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base molded to said first and said second three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped walls,
a first post-elevating strut welded to said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base,
a second post-elevating strut welded to said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base,
a plurality of bolt holes drilled in said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base,
a plurality of screw holes drilled in said first and said second three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped walls, and
a plurality of post-clamping screws for being screwed into said screw holes and said post;

a three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion-securing bolt system comprising:
a plurality of three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking bolts each having a convex bolt bottom for being inserted through said bolt holes,
a plurality of three-dimensionally-adjustable concave upper washers each having an upper concave surface engaging with said convex bolt bottom for three-dimensionally adjusting said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base,
a plurality of three-dimensionally-adjustable concave lower washers each having a lower concave surface for three-dimensionally adjusting said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base, and
a plurality of three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking nuts each having a convex nut top engaging with said lower concave surface for three-dimensionally adjusting and securing said convex locking bolts, said concave upper washers, said concave lower washers, and said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base together; and

a multi-spiral-blade multi-offset-spiral-shovel ground-penetrating system comprising:
a stanchion-securing hammer plate,
a plurality of plate holes drilled in said stanchion-securing hammer plate for said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking bolts to be inserted therethrough,
a plurality of stationary hammer-plate nuts welded to said stanchion-securing hammer plate for stationarily securing said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking bolts to said stanchion-securing hammer plate,
a plurality of spiral blades spirally molded to said stanchion-securing hammer plate for spirally piercing the ground and spirally opening a track therein,
a plurality of offset spiral shovels spirally and offsettingly molded to said stanchion-securing hammer plate for spirally and offsettingly closing said track, and
a ground-penetrating X-cross-sectional spike welded to said stanchion-securing hammer plate, said spiral blades, and said offset spiral shovels,

whereby said three-dimensionally-adjustable spike system:
can three-dimensionally adjustably secure said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base to the ground using said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking nuts,
can stationarily secure said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base to the ground using said stationary hammer-plate nuts,
can be three-dimensionally adjustable and lockable before, during, and after installation using said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking bolts, said three-dimensionally-adjustable concave upper washers, said three-dimensionally-adjustable concave lower washers, and said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking nuts to prevent said first and said second three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped walls from leaning, warping, and twisting,
can be three-dimensionally adjustable and lockable before, during, and after installation using said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking bolts, said three-dimensionally-adjustable concave upper washers, said three-dimensionally-adjustable concave lower washers, and said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking nuts to prevent said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base from leaning, warping, and twisting,
can allow vertical access between said first and said second three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped walls to three-dimensionally adjust and secure said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base,
can allow horizontal access through said first and said second wrench accessible openings to three-dimensionally adjust and secure said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base,
can allow rain water to evaporate away through said first and said second wrench accessible openings to prevent said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base and said first and said second post-elevating struts from getting rusted,
can spirally piercing the ground and spirally opening said track, using said spiral blades, and
can spirally and offsettingly closing said track using said offset spiral shovels.

2. The three-dimensionally-adjustable spike system of claim 1 ,
wherein said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking bolts, said three-dimensionally-adjustable concave upper washers, said three-dimensionally-adjustable concave lower washers, and said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking nuts three-dimensionally adjustably secure said post perpendicularly to the ground before, during, and after installation, and
wherein said stationary hammer-plate nuts stationarily secure said post perpendicularly to the ground before, during, and after installation.

3. The three-dimensionally-adjustable spike system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a rust-preventing cover for covering and preventing said first and said second three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped walls and said three-dimensionally-adjustable stanchion base from rusting,
a first snap-lock molded to said rust-preventing cover for being snap-hooked on said first three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped walls, and
a second snap-lock molded to said rust-preventing cover for being snap-hooked on said second three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped walls.

4. The three-dimensionally-adjustable spike of claim 1 , wherein said first and said second wrench-accessable openings each have a rectangular shape.

5. The three-dimensionally-adjustable spike system of claim 1 , wherein said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking bolts has a hexagonal head.

6. The three-dimensionally-adjustable spike system of claim 1 , wherein said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking bolts has a pentagonal head.

7. The three-dimensionally-adjustable spike system of claim 1 , wherein said three-dimensionally-adjustable convex locking bolts has a square or Allen head.

8. The three-dimensionally-adjustable spike system of claim 1 , wherein said spiral blades are disposed near said offset spiral shovels.

9. The three-dimensionally-adjustable spike system of claim 1 , with wherein said spiral blades are disposed below said offset spiral shovels.

10. A three-dimensionally-adjustable spike for securing a post comprising:
a three-dimensionally-adjustable post-securing stanchion system comprising:
a first three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped wall,
a second three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped wall,
a first wrench-accessible opening formed in and between said first and said second three-dimensionally-adjustable C-shaped walls,
