Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention moves a plurality of concrete blocks, in particular four concrete blocks in a square or rectangular arrangement, for example a trough-shaped or pedestal-shaped concrete block on a pallet, into a linear arrangement. For equipment.

[0002]

2. Description of the Prior Art When moving a plurality of concrete blocks supplied on a pallet, for example in order to construct a vertical wall suitable for cultivation, the concrete blocks must be picked up by hand and placed in corresponding positions. . Grooved hollow concrete blocks are generally relatively heavy, so it has been proposed to lift them by a gripping device fixed to the excavator by a chain.

[0003]

However, for this reason,
It was necessary to lift each concrete block one by one and place it in the appropriate position. This was very time consuming and the alignment had to be done manually.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a device of the above type which is capable of lifting all concrete blocks lined up on a pallet and moving them into a corresponding position.

[0005]

In order to solve the above problems, the apparatus of the present invention is an apparatus for moving a plurality of concrete blocks placed in a square array on a pallet into a linear arrangement. And two molded article supports that are configured to be suspended by a predetermined suspension device, are arranged in parallel with a distance from each other, and are rotatable around an axis, and are fixed to each of the molded article supports. And a movable fixing device that is connected to each of the molded product supports and is connected to each other by a connecting member having a flexible member and moves in the longitudinal direction of the molded product support as the molded product support rotates. And a gripping device attached to the fixing device and the movable fixing device to hold the concrete block, and the concrete block is gripped and lifted by each gripping device to support the molded product. When placed in a straight line is rotated, it is characterized in that the movable fixing device is brought into position to position the final required to move each locking device outward.

In a special embodiment of the device according to the invention, the molding support consists of a hollow molding, which comprises a bearing for the shaft in order to swivel the molding in a linear arrangement. The vertically movable fixing device for the gripping device comprises a carriage with a plurality of rollers, which has two right-angled protruding arms, said carriage via a connecting rod with a plurality of guide rollers at its ends. It is characterized in that it is connected to the end of the flexible member.

[0007]

The apparatus according to the present invention moves the concrete blocks to a desired position by lifting four hollow concrete blocks arranged on, for example, a pallet by a gripping device and moving the molding support in a linear array. It has the advantage of being able to That is, both molded product supports are moved about axes provided on both arms until both molded product supports are linearly aligned with each other, and when the flexible members are positioned linearly, a connection having a flexible member is provided. The movable fixing devices connected to each other via the member are moved outward, and the concrete block suspended from the gripping device is also moved outward together with the movable fixing device.
On the other hand, since the concrete blocks suspended by the gripping device fixed to the fixing device do not change their positions, the concrete blocks are finally arranged in a straight line at a required distance.

The invention is explained in more detail below with the aid of the drawings and by way of example by means of preferred embodiments.

In the drawings, FIG. 1 is a side view showing the principle of the device according to the invention.

FIG. 2 is a plan view (in the basic position) of the device according to the invention.

FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along the line A-C shown in FIG.

FIG. 4 is a partial view of the (concrete block) moving position shown with a view corresponding to FIG. 2 of the device according to the invention.

FIG. 5 is a plan view of the arrangement according to the invention of a hollow concrete block with a plurality of grooves in a basic position.

FIG. 6 is a plan view of an apparatus according to the present invention and a plurality of concrete blocks arranged in a row by the apparatus at required intervals.

As shown in the drawings, the device according to the invention is
It consists of two molding supports 1 and 2. The molding supports are arranged at a distance from each other and have an eye 3 on the upper side of the molding support for hanging from a chain or rope fixed to a crane, power shovel or the like.

At the ends of the two molding supports 1 and 2 there are two arms 4 facing each other at right angles. The arm has a bearing at its opposite ends, through which is a shaft 6 shown as a threaded bolt. The handles 7 located at the ends of the molding supports 1 and 2 are rotated in the direction of the arrow 8 away from each other until the molding supports are aligned with one another, as partially shown in FIG. .

Two fixing devices 9 are used for the molded product supports 1 and 2.
Firmly welded to the lower side of the anchor, the fixture is connected to a conventional gripping device 10 for concrete blocks.

At the inner front end of each molded product support, there is a movable fixing device 11 consisting of a carriage with a roller 12, which moves in the slotted guides 13, 14 in the longitudinal direction of the molded product support. . The connecting rod 15 is fixed to each movable fixing device, and the other end of the connecting rod is connected to the end of the bending member via the roller guide 16. The flexible member includes, for example, a rubber molded product and an elastic coating 17.

As shown in particular in FIGS. 2 and 4, the flexure member arcs from the end of the molding support 1 to the end of the molding support 2.

A guide roller 18 for guiding the flexible member is arranged in a corner between the molded product supports 1 and 2 and the arms 4 and 5.

FIG. 4 shows the final position of the two hollow molding supports. In the figure, the hollow molded product support linearly aligned with the molded product support 1 is designated by 2 '. This shows that the flexible member composed of the rubber molding and the elastic coating 17 is similarly linearly aligned after being pivoted to the final position. This movement causes the two movable locking devices to be moved outwardly, whereby the adjustable length of the flexible member consisting of the rubber molding and the elastic covering 17 is moved to move the locking device to the required final position. , Corresponding to the required distance between the fixing devices which are moved away from each other.

Further, a bracket with a hole 19 may be provided between the two arms 4 and 5 for guiding the flexible member.

The procedure for moving the concrete block is shown in FIGS. FIG. 5 shows the basic position in which four hollow concrete blocks 20 are located in a layer in a rectangular array. In this position, the device according to the present invention uses four hoisting blocks with suitable lifting equipment.
Accurately hung on top of. The device according to the invention is lowered and the concrete block 20 is held and lifted by the gripping device 10.

The two molding supports 1 and 2 are then swiveled away from each other until both molding supports are in linear alignment with each other (FIG. 6). The movable fixing device 11 is an arrow
The concrete block which is moved outward in the direction of 21 and is suspended from the gripping device 10 together with the movable fixing device 11 is also moved outward. In the final position, i.e. in the displaced position, the concrete blocks will be in a linear arrangement and will be at the required distance from each other under the device according to the invention and thus will be lowered onto the concrete foundation. Or it is lowered so that it overlaps the concrete block.

[0025]

As described in detail above, according to the apparatus of the present invention, for example, all four hollow concrete blocks lined up in a rectangular array on a pallet are grasped and lifted at once by the apparatus, and then the molded product support is raised. By moving it into a linear array, the concrete can be aligned in a row at the required spacing, and by lowering the device of the present invention over the required location, the concrete is placed in the required spacing at the location. Can be arranged.
