Abstract:
A multi-purpose anchor device for use in anchoring one or more tension cables and one or more window or curtain walls. In this respect, the anchor includes a channel, angle bracket, or plate for use in attaching to a window or curtain wall. One or more tension cables are also coupled to the anchor, which anchors the tension cables. The multi-purpose nature of the anchor allows for the reduction in materials cost, installation time, and conflict issues between placement of previously known anchors.

Claim (Index 1):
An anchor system for concrete, comprising:\n a first anchor device adapted to be disposed along a first edge of a concrete structure and couple a first wall to the concrete structure, the first anchor device includes:\n a first base portion having a first side and second and third sides extending from the first side in a first direction to cooperatively form a first \u2018C\u2019 shaped channel, wherein the first, second and third sides are adapted to be embedded in the first edge with an exterior of the first side facing in a direction towards the concrete structure; and \n a tension cable coupled to the first side of the first base portion and adapted to extend from the first side into the concrete structure; \n a second anchor device adapted to be embedded in a second edge of the concrete structure opposite the first edge and aligned with the first anchor device, the second anchor device includes:\n a second base portion having a first side and second and third sides extending from the first side of the second base portion in a second direction, and teeth respectively extending from edges of the second and third sides of the second base portion opposite the first side of the second base portion to cooperatively form a second \u2018C\u2019 shaped channel, wherein the first, second and third sides of the second base portion are adapted to be embedded in the second edge with an exterior of the first side of the second base portion facing in a direction towards the concrete structure; \n an aperture extending through the first side of the second base portion and adapted to receive the tension cable therethrough; and \n a cut-out in at least a portion of the teeth, the cut-out is opposite and aligned with the aperture, and the cut-out is adapted to allow access for a tension tool to tension the tension cable when the tension cable is inserted through the aperture.
