Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a spacer element for making formworks and laying building structures according to the preamble of claim 1. Also, the present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for manufacturing said spacer element.
  • Spacer elements are commonly used in the art for laying panels adapted to make up formworks for casting concrete and laying building structures.
  • Italian patent No. IT 01246105 discloses spacer elements having a substantially rectangular body comprising a central region and two end regions on which two slits are obtained for housing anchoring means, in particular wedges, which allow to block and space out a system of transversal links of the formwork.
  • said spacer elements comprise tangs having bent portions protruding from the profile of the spacer elements, which allow a predetermined distance to be kept between the panels adapted to make up concrete casting formworks, since they work as stop elements on the edges of said panels.
  • Said tangs are symmetrical in relation to the central region of the spacer element.
  • each tang is followed by a respective shearing area.
  • this arrangement of said spacer elements is obtained by inserting the body of the spacer element in an apparatus comprising cutting and bending means which work together in order to produce the tangs in the transition area between a first end region and the central region.
  • the making of the tangs in the transition area between a second end region and the central region requires that the opening of the apparatus and the replacement of the spacer element appropriately.
  • the main object of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks by providing a spacer element so manufactured that it does not require the apparatus used for manufacturing the spacer element to be opened and the spacer element to be lifted and then re-positioned in said apparatus.
  • Figs. IA and IB are a perspective view and a top view, respectively, of a spacer element according to the present invention
  • Fig. 1C shows a variant of the spacer element according to the present invention
  • Fig. 2 shows a schematic representation of a vertical section of an apparatus for manufacturing a spacer element according to the present invention
  • - Fig. 3 A shows an additional station of the apparatus of Fig. 2;
  • Fig. 3B is a partial sectional view according to plane HIB - IIIB of Fig. 3 A.
  • reference number 10 designates a spacer element for making formworks and laying building structures according to the present invention.
  • Said spacer element 10 consists of a substantially rectangular body comprising a first end region 11, a second end region 12 and a central region 13, said first 11 and second 12 end regions being positioned on opposite sides relative to said central region 13.
  • said spacer elements 10 comprise a plurality of tangs 14 having bent portions protruding B2007/001227
  • said tangs 14 allow a predetermined distance to be kept between the panels adapted to make up concrete casting formworks, since they work as stop elements on the edges of said panels.
  • each tang 14 of said plurality of tangs 14 is located downstream of a shearing area 15.
  • the above-described arrangement of the plurality of tangs 14 of the spacer elements 10 can thus be obtained with no need of opening an apparatus comprising cutting and bending means cooperating for the purpose of producing the tangs 14 and, as a result, with no need of lifting the slab, thus cutting down the production times of the spacer element 10 and allowing to position a plurality of side-by-side slabs, so that a plurality of spacer elements 10 can be machined simultaneously.
  • Said first end region 11 comprises a pair of tangs 14 having respective bent portions turned in opposite directions relative to the profile of the spacer element 10
  • the second end region 12 comprises a pair of tangs 14 having respective bent portions turned in opposite directions relative to the tangs 14 of the first end region 11.
  • said first 11 and second 12 end regions of the spacer elements 10 comprise slits 16 adapted to house anchoring means (not shown), in particular wedges, which allow to block and space out a system of transversal links of the formwork.
  • Said first end region 11 and second end region 12 of the spacer element 10 also comprise a hole 17, in particular located between the tangs 14 and the slit 16. Said hole 17 allows fastening means, such as nails, to be driven in for the purpose of anchoring the concrete casting panels when making the formwork.
  • FIG. 1C shows a further embodiment of the spacer element 10 according to the present invention, wherein the section of the central region 13 is twisted by 90° relative to the section of the first end region 11 and of the second end region 12; said twist can be obtained by bending the central region 13 relative to the first end region 11 and the second end region 12.
  • Said twist allows the central region 13 of the spacer element 10 to be arranged in a vertical or edgeways position relative to two formwork walls in front of it. Due to the resulting increase in its moment of inertia, the section gains higher resistance to flexure and shock caused by cast concrete.
  • said twist provides a considerable increase in the concrete passage section, thereby facilitating the filling of the formwork, and reduces the possibility of seepages once the concrete has been cast, resulting in the elimination of the risk of rust dripping on the building walls.
