Abstract

The forming apparatus herein is horizontally elongated and highly flexible. This apparatus is constructed in various lengths and widths depending on the users requirements. Hereon vertical tabs are welded to the outside of the form at pre-determined intervals to support angled iron to achieve horizontally straight and sturdy forming. Whereby removing said angled iron, you are able to achieve any desired curve, whether concave or convex. A manually adjust-able apparatus, consisting of two sections of tube steel, one having a larger inside diameter than the outside diameter of the other, wherein assembled are slidable for horizontal adjusting of the said forms.
Hereon, welded to the said adjuster, a vertical round tube having a set screw within, holds a vertical steel rod. Herein the steel rod is driven into the earth for stability and vertical adjusting is achieved by means of the set screw. Hereon each length of form, end plates are welded at ninety degree angles, whereby two sections can be assembled by means of male and female connection. By means of each section's ability to connect, these forms can be assembled and dismantled for transportation from job site to job site.

Description

Thls in~ention relates to a manually opera~le concrete ~orming apparatu~. Wood forming is commonlv used throughout the concrete ~orming industry. Woo~
forms mu~t be cut to fit the ~ob at hand. To achieve curve~, the ~ood i~ usually ~oakea in water to make it pliable~ Wocd forms are a~sembled l?y mean~ oî
wlre nails. The li~espan o~ wood Iorms range ~rom five to twelv~ uses. Skilled workers are al~o needed ~or the ~et up o~ ~uch ~orming and can be ~ery time eonsuming.
I have found that the~e di~ad~Tantages can be o~ercome by u~ing cold rolled ~teel cut in various lengths and width~ and attach~ng thereon an apparatus to allow :or hori20ntal and ~ertl~al movement, which 15 permi ts e~tremely :~ast ~lne tunlng in the i`ormlng proce~s~ ~y means of male ana female connector~, the~ form~ can be quickly as~emblea wlthout the use o~ wire nall3. Curve~ can be a~hi~ed rela~ively ea8i:1y without br~aking ~r warping; also the~e forms .~ 20 can achie~e and maintain curves which cannot be done wlth w~d. Where~n s~raight ~ ineY are required, ~:~ angled iron plaeed ~n tab~ ~slded to the out3ide of the ~orm will produce exact and ~peedy formin~
Ri~h~ angle ~ction~ ar~ availab~ for fa~t forming, 7~ usine the ~a~d male and ~emale connection ~or in~lde or outside ri~ht angle~. A stake ~older i~ welded to the hori20ntal and ~ertical ad~u~ter to allow for po~itive and qulok ~Take o~tt1ne.

Claims (4)

1. Slab forming apparatus for forming sections of concrete slabs in a pre-determined area comprised of elongated cold rolled steel of various lengths and widths having pre-cut plates of cold rolled steel welded at ninety degree angles to both ends of the elongated cold rolled steel, wherein one end being comprised of two pre-drilled holes and the opposite end having two stud bolts welded to said steel plate, wherein this procedure is carried out on several sections of elongated cold rolled steel, can be assembled precisely and effectively to form longer sections which when placed upon the ground horizontally can be arranged to hold concrete within its form to achieve the desired shape and size of any given slab of concrete.
2. The slab forming apparatus as stated in claim 1 enhanced by a manually adjusting apparatus fastened to the outside of the steel form by means of welding, enables the said forms to be adjusted in the horizontal and/or vertical directions.
3. The slab forming apparatus as stated in claims 1 and 2 characterized by steel tabs cut in an "L" shape when welded to the outside of the form at pre-determined intervals act as a permanent guide for inserting angled iron to achieve and maintain horizontally straight sections of forming. Whereas curved sections are required, the angled iron can be removed or omitted.
4. The slab forming apparatus as set forth in the able claims 1 through 3 when characterized by prefabricated right angled sections (inside and outside) allows the user(s) to achieve accurate and efficient square or right angle corners.
