To tzz whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, OURT R. BURKHARDT: a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of Teaneck, Bergen county, and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Presses for Making Concrete Slabs, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, formingda part thereof. 7 I a y invention relates to apparatus for fiproducing plates, slabs, tiles, shingles, arti cial slate, or like articles from hydraulic cement, v or from some other suitable concrete mixture. It has special reference to improvements in machines of the character shown and described in m copending application S. #101,461, filed Zi une 3, 1916.
One object of my present invention is to provide a simple and improved means for clamping or which the press is comprised, against the if after the mold has been filled with concrete mixture and before the compressive force of the press has been'applied to the material in the mold. F

General description.
The structure illustrated in the drawings comprises a base 15, a plunger 25, a station ary press head 30 at the top, a plurality of intermediate press heads 40, two sets of molds 50, spring-pressed mold supports 60' and two sets of supporting racks which are attached to the respective sides of the press.
Base.
"The base 15 is mounted on a pair of adjusting screws 16 which are enlarged at the ioo ' a recess 28 in which cooling bottom to form feet 17 and have nuts 18 which are adapted to be turned to raise and lower the base 15 as a whole.
The base is furthermore provided with a cylindrical recess 19 which constitutes a hydraulic cylinder and is adapted to receive the cylindrical plunger or piston 25. Fluid under pressure is'admitted to the cylinder from any suitable source in the usual manner. The plunger or piston is provided with fluid may be disposed. The downward movement of the press plunger or piston 25 is limited by the engagement of the bottom of the plunger with stops 29 within the cylinder.
Stationary press head.
I ntermediate press heads.
Each 'of the intermediate press heads 40 has the form shown in Figs. 4, 5, 9 and 10. These are provided with corner brackets 41 which are curved to engage and cooperate with the studs or tie rods 32. the arrangement of parts being such that the press heads float and are free to move up and down parallel to the press movement, being guided by the studs. Each press head has a recess or steam chamber which may be U-shaped and communicates with inlet and exhaust passages 38 and 39. Each of the press heads is formed on the top in such manner as to cooperate with the bottom of the mold above as hereinafter more fully explained. The steam connections are established between molds by short pipes 42 which are joined by swing joints so as not to interfere with the operation of the mold, this arrangement being clearly shown in Fig. 8. Each of the floating press heads has a pair of angle bars 60 with upturned flange 61 resiliently mounted thereon in parallel relation, in position to receive one of the molds 50 as clearly shownin Figs. 2 and 10. The bars-have downwardly extending dowel pins 62 which enter holes 63 in the press head on which they are mounted, helical springs 64 being interposed between the head and the bar, and preferably set into spring pockets 65 in the head. The arrangement of parts is such that each mold is resiliently carried on the springs when it is introduced into the press and is in a other forming plate unnecessary.
. the press position slightly below the bottom surface of the press head above. The parts are arranged so that the mold is very readily moved from the mold racks .as explained below, into the spring-pressed supports in the press.
Press molds.
Each of the molds 50 comprises a frame or hollow body which may be subdivided as shown, if desired,'having a flange 51 to sup' port a removable bottom plate or plates 52. If it is desired to provide for the manufacture of shingles or tiles of different thicknesses or of varying thicknesses from one edge to the other, a plate may be removably secured to each bottom plate and in this case will constitute a form to determine the thickness and shape of the shingle or tile. Vhere the machine is designed for a uniform product of one kind, the bottom plate 52 may be so constructed as to render any Each mold has side projections 53 which are adapted to engage and cooperate with the springpressed supportiiig bars 61. It also has a handle 5 L at one end so that it may be readily moved into and out of the press.
Supporting racks.
The press as above described, is operative and one set of molds may be filled and introduced into the press before the press is operated, but I prefer to utilize racks as shown and described in my copending application and, as shown particularly in Figs. 1, 8 and 9 hereof. The racks comprise four frames which are secured near their respective ends to the base 15 and the stationary press head 30. Each of the frames has an inwardly extending flange or projection 71 which is notched to constitute steps 72 on which the edges of the molds rest when is retracted. The lowest intermediate press head 40 rests upon the bottom step 72 when the plunger 25 is released and each successive press head above it rests upon the upper steps in succession.
A press head 85 secured to the plunger so that its upper surface corresponds to the upper surface of each of the floating press heads. The removable bottom plate 52 of each mold is made sufficiently thick. as clearly shown in Figs. 7 and 10, or is otherwise formed, to extend downwardly a considerable distance below the mold frame and consequently when the press is operated the working pressure is exerted entirely on the removable bottom plate.
In order to holdeach bottom plate seated on the flange 51, when it is not forcibly raised by the action of the press, I prefer in some cases to provide ledges or projections 75 on the plate and introduce springs 7 6 between the plate and the mold frame.
be omitted entirely if desired.
. Operation.
Assuming that the parts occupy substan tially the positions shown in Figs. 1 and 2 and that the molds which are carried by the spring-pressed mold supports are filled with concrete mixture from which the slabs or shingles are to be made, hydraulic or other'suitable pressure is next admitted to actuate the plunger. Attention is directed to the fact that the spring supports carry the mold in such position (as'shown in lFig. 2) that the bottom of the plate 52 clears the top of the press head below and consequently the first upward movement of the bottom press head carries the of the series up and clamps or presses it, by the compression'of the springs 64, against the bottom surface of the press head above. This action continues until all of the molds are closed, the spring tension being such as to insure that each individual mold is forcibly pressed shut and finally the full hydraulic pressure-is applied to the bottom plates 52. This heavy pressure forms the shingle and the heat which is supplied to the press heads by steam or other suitable means and in combination with pressure completely sets and dries the concrete and accomplishes by this means in a very short length of time what requires by other means a very considerable period.of time.
When the.heat and pressure has been applied sutficiently the hydraulic pressure is released and the springs immediately expand and hold the molds in suspended positions free fromboth of the adjacent press heads, thus enabling the attendant to quickly and easily pull the molds out into the racks from which they are introduced into the press.
As explained in my copending application already referred to, there are preferably two attendants, one on each side of the press and there are two full sets of molds, each attendant introducing half of his molds at one time; while the press is in action each attendant fills the other half of his share of molds so that they are ready to'be introduced as soonas the other attendant ulls out the molds containing the, comp eted shingles. It is evident that my invention may be :mbodied in modified structures and while ;he structures of preferred form and con- :truction have been illustrated and described For the purpose of showing'ways in which i is invention may be "used, the inventive hought upon which this application is aSed, is broader than these illustrative emodim'ents thereof, and I therefore intend no imitations other than those imposed by the ppended claims. a I
