D. W. BOWE ROD SOCKET Fil y 19. 1923 Patented June 16, 1925.
UNITED STATES DAVID w. BOWE, or DETROIT, MICHIGAN.
ROD SOCKET.
Application filed July 19, 1923. Serial 1%.. 652,611.
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, DAVID W. Bown, a citizen of the United States, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented a new and use ful Rod Socket, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to rod sockets or holders and more particularly to those used in concrete construction.
The object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which issimple and cheap to manufacture, efficiently supports the rods in position and permits them to be readily assembled and adjusted.
Another object of the invention is to provide sockets of this character constructed for use on side forms for building concrete roads and the like, said sockets being designed to space and hold the reinforcing rods in permanent position during the building operation, thus avoidingthe necessity of wiring the transverse to 'the longitudinal rods or otherwise fastening them and which when removed leave depressions around the ends of the rod to be filled in with mortar which covers and protects these ends.
Another object is to provide sockets of this character having openings extending through the socket wall and adapted to register with similar openings in the side forms for extension and adjustment of the rods.
With the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, may be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the s irit of the inven tion, I i 1 W In the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 represents a transverse section of a concrete roadway embodying the sockets constituting this invention.
Fig. 2 is a front elevation of one of the sockets detached.
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section thereof. Fig. 4 is a front elevation of a single socket.
gig/5 is a longitudinal sectionthereof; an
Fig. 6 is a front elevation slightly different form of socket.
In the embodiment illustrated, the rod holders or sockets'constituting this invention are shown applied to side forms 1 and 2 spaced apart a distance corresponding to the width of the road to be constructed and between which the concrete material 3 is molded.
Secured to the opposed innerfaces of the forms 1 and 2 are the rod holders or sockets 5 and 10 embodying this invention, said holders being exactly alike except that the rod, receiving seats of the member 5 are closed while those of socket 10ware open as shown clearly in Fig. 1 and adapted to register with openings 15 extending throu h the form 2 for a purpose presently to e described.
Socket 5 is made in the form of a bearing a heavy plate or casting having-longitudinally spaced laterally. projecting seats 6 and 7 to receive the rods 16 and 17 which are designed to extend transversely through the roadway and to cooperate with longitudinally disposed. reinforcing rods 18 which'are here shown locatedunder the rods 16 and 17 but may be otherwise located if desired.
The casting constituting the body portion of socket 5 has a plurality of longitudinally spaced apertures 8 designed to receive attaching screws 9 which fasten the socket to the form. The socket 10 is secured to the inner face of the side form 2 which as above stated is exactly like socket 5 except that the seats 11 and 12 thereof open through the rear wall of the casting to permit the rods 16 and 17 to be moved longitudinally after being inserted. The use of these rod holders with their laterally projecting sockets permits the road to be built the full width of the length of the rods 16 and 17 "1 without leaving the ends of said rods projecting beyond the side edges of the roadway.
In Figs. 4 and 5 the socket 20 is exactly the same as those shown in the other figures except that it has one rod seat only while those shown in Figs. 1 to 3 have two seats.
In Fig. 6 a socket 22 is shown comprising a base or fastening plate 23 having an a erture 24 at its ends for the passa e of tllb fastening screws while the seat 25 t ereof is made open at its top to permit a rod Showing a being dropped into it without necessitating its longitudinal movement.
These sockets may be cheaply manufactured and readily applied and will not only increase the strength of the form but will materially add to the strength of the concrete structure since the rods will be efiiciently placed. The rod sockets and which are in the form of plates having laterally extending castings with seats to receive the rods 16 and 17, are permanently mounted on the forms 1 and 2 and are removed with these forms after the concrete has set to the desired extent. After the forms with the sockets have been removed the depressions around the rod ends which are left by the removal of the laterally pro jecting socket members, are tilled in with mortar as is also the spaces in the ends of 20 the concrete where the plates were embedded.
jects.
This filling in with mortar of these depressions covers the ends of the rods and protects them against the weather and against danger of their engaging with passing ob- This arrangement of the mortar provides smooth side edges for the road bed.
It is understood of course that the forms 1 and 2 are first set up the desired distance apart according to the width of the road to be constructed and the rods 16 and 17 are entered in the sockets 6, T, 11 and 12, and are held inoperative position spaced the desired distance apart during the pouring of the concrete into the mold or form and after the concrete has set these rods will be securely held and the form may be removed in the usual Way, the depressions closed by mortar in the manner above described. The openings in the form shown at 15V and in the socket member 10 are designed for adjusting the rods.
Various changes in the form, shape, proportion and other minor details of construction may be made without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of the claimed invention.
1 claim 1. Rod supporting means comprising a pair of castings one having a laterally projecting seat in its inner face with closed rear ends, and the other having a similar seat open at its rear end.
2. A rod socket comprising a base plate having a rod receiving seat opening laterally from one face thereof, said seat being opened at its upper end for the insertion of a rod to be supported.
In an apparatus of the class described the combination of side formshaving plates permanently mounted on their opposed inner faces, said plates being provided with laterally projecting rod receiving seats, the rear wall of the seats on one form having openings extending therethrough and the form having openings registering with the openings in the seats to provide for the adjust ment and extension of the rods to be used.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own 1 have hereto aiiixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
