MOLD FOR MAKING BURlAL-VAULTS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 778,868, dated January 3, 1905.
Application filed August 15,1904. Serial No. 220,869.
To all whom, it may concern/.-
Be it known that we, HENRY KINNEY and JOHN M. PRUETT, citizens of theUnited States, residing at Rockville, in the county of Parke and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Mold for Making Burial -Vaults, of which the following is a specification.
' This invention relates to molds for making burial cases, vaults, sarcophagi, and similar structures from cement or other plastic material, and has for its object to provide an in-.
expensive, durable, and efiicient device of this character by means of which artificial-stone burial-cases may be quickly and conveniently manufactured.
A further object of this invention is to provide a mold comprising an inner and outer shell, both of which are formed of a plurality of pivoted sections detachably secured to gether, so that said sections may be readily swung to open position to permit the easy removal of the molded product.
A further object of the invention is to provide means for properly spacing the inner.
shell with respect to the outer shell and means for supporting said inner shell in a slightlyelevated position, so as to form the bottom and vertical walls of uniform thickness.
A still further object is to provide a sectional molding for forming the vertical walls of the vault or case with a seating flange or groove adapted to receive the top or cover, and, further, to provide a novel form of mold for making said top or cover.
The invention consists in the construction and novel combination and arrangement of parts, hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claims hereto appended, it being understood that various changes in form, proportion, and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the mold for forming the body portion of the burial-case or vault. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the same. Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional View. Fig. 4: is a top plan view of a portion of the inner shell, showing the arrangement of the doors. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the mold for forming the top or cover of the vault. Fig. 6 is a longitudinal sectional view of the same. Fig. 7 is a transverse sectional view of said top or cover.
Similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding partsin all the figures of the drawings.
The mold forming the subject-matter of this invention consists of an outer shell 5 and an innershell 6, both of which are preferably octagonal in contour, as shown, and preferably formed of tongue-and-grooved boards nailed or otherwise secured to longitudinal beams or cleats 8.
The outer shell 5 rests on a supportingframe 9, the top of which is covered with a thin sheet of galvanized iron 10, so as to present a smooth surface to the cement or other material of which the vault or case is formed. The outer shell is preferably formed in two sections 11 and 12, hinged together, as indicated at 13, said sections being locked in closed position in any suitable manner, as by hasps 14:. A marginal flange 15 is secured to the outer shell where it rests upon the supporting-frame 9, said flange being provided with oneor more openings 16, adapted to receive pins 17 which engage coincident openings in the supporting-frame and serve to prevent accidental displacement of said shell. The inner shell 6 is supported in a slightlyelevated position above the frame 9 by means of supporting-hooks 18, one end of each of which is secured in any suitable manner to the vertical side wall of the inner shell,the opposite ends of said hooks engaging sockets 19, secured to the side walls of the outer shell, as shown.
The hooks 18 not only support theinner shell a distance above the frame 9 equal to the thickness of the bottom of the vault or burialcase 20, but also serve to properly space the inner and outer shells, so as to form the vertical walls of said vault of uniform thickness. The opposite ends of the inner shell 6 are provided withinwardly-swinging doors 21, which divide said shell longitudinally into two sections 22 and 23. The side Walls of the doors .21 are inclined or beveled, as indicated at 24,
' and are hinged at to one of said sections and fastened by a hasp 26 to the other, so that when said doors are in closed position the in-,
when said doors are opened the sections 22 i ets on said outer shell.
and 23 may be forced inwardly toward each other and withdrawn without chipping or otherwise marring the molded product.
In order to form the vertical walls of the vault or burial-case with a seatingflange for the top or cover 2.7, I provide a molding-strip 28, preferably formed of a plurality of independent sections, which are laid on the upper edge of the inner shell preparatory to introducing the cement or other material into the mold, as clearly shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings.
The mold for forming the top or cover 27 consists of two members 29 and 30, the mem ber 29 being provided with a flat base 31, the edges of which are inclined or beveled, as indicated at 32, so as to give the desired arch or how to the cover. The member 30 fits between the end walls 33 of the member 29 and is preferably formed in three sections, the intermediate one of which is of the same width as the flat base 31, while the outer sections 33 are disposed at an angle corresponding to the angle of the inclined portions 32, said outer sections being hinged, as indicated at 34, to permit ready access to the interior of the mold. The opposite ends of the intermediate and outer sections are also inclined or beveled, as shown at 35, and are properly spaced from the member 29 by means of depending lugs or blocks 36, secured to the inclined end portions of the pivoted outer sections 33. The members 29 and 30 are preferably lined with a thin sheet of galvanized iron 37 and are locked in closed position prior to introducing the cement by hasps 38, secured in any suitable manner to the pivoted sections of themold and engaging eyes 39 on the end walls 33.
The flat intermediate section of the member 29 may be provided with one or more apertures, in which are inserted depending tubes or cores 10 for forming the top or cover of the vault with vent-openings.
The molding-faces of the inner and outer shells 5 and 6 are also provided with a metallic lining, preferably galvanized iron, to prevent the cement or other plastic material from adhering to the side walls of the mold. In molding the body portion of the vault or burial-cases the outer shell is first secured in position on the supporting-frame by means of the pins and the inner shell supported within the same by inserting the hooks 18 in the, sock- The molding-strip 28 is then placed in position, and a plastic material, preferably consisting of one part Portland cement and two parts sand, is shoveled or otherwise introduced in the mold and thoroughly tamped to form a homogeneous mass, after which the floor of the-vault is put in place to join the walls, as clearly shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings.
To release the vault or case, the pivoted sections of the outer shell are swung laterally to open position and the inner shell detached by .swinging the doors 21 inwardly and forcing the two sections comprising said shell toward each other, the hooks 18 having been previously disengaged from the sockets 19. In forming the top or cover of the vault the two sections 29 and 30 are preferably placed on the supporting-frame with one of the pivoted outer sections in contact therewith and the plastic material introduced and thoroughly tamped. The vault or case is released by unfastening the hoops and swinging the pivoted sections of the mold upwardly out of contact with said cover, thereby permitting the latter to be conveniently removed without chipping or otherwise mutilating the same.
If desired, thin sheets of expanded iron or wire-gauze may be introduced in the cement when forming the vault to give additional strength to the latter.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is 1. A mold comprising an outer shell having a plurality of sockets secured to the exterior walls thereof, a removable inner shell and supporting-hooks secured to the interior walls of the inner shell, and adapted to engage said sockets for supporting the shells in spaced relation to each other.
2. A mold comprising an outer shell formed in two sections pivoted together and adapted to swing laterally to open position, an inner shell supported in spaced relation to the outer shell and provided with oppositely-disposed inwardly-swinging pivoted doors, means for locking the outer shell in closed position, and means for locking the pivoted doors of the inner shell. I
3. A mold comprising an outer shell, formed in two sections pivoted together and adapted to swing laterally to open position, an inner shell of less height than the outer shell, a metallic lining secured to the inner walls of the outer shell, a similar lining secured to the outer walls of the inner shell, and means for supporting the bottom of the inner shell in elevated position, and means for locking thev outer shell in closed position.
4. l A mold comprising an octagonal outer shell, and octagonal inner shell arranged within the same and supported in spaced relation thereto, and a detachable groove-forming strip resting on the top of the inner shell and hav ing a portion thereof disposed between said shells, said inner shell being provided with oppositely-disposed inwardly-swinging pivoted doors.
5. The combination with a supporting-frame provided witha plurality of openings, an outer ITO shell resting on said frame, a perforated marginal flange secured to said shell, pins passing through the perforations in said flange and engaging the openings in the supportingframe, an inner shell, and a groove-forming strip carried by said inner shell.
6. The combination with a supporting-frame of an outer shell resting on said frame and formed in two sections hinged together and adapted to swing laterally to open position, an inner shell having oppositely-disposed pivoted sections, and means for supporting the bottom of the inner shell above the supporting-frame.
