MOLD FOR' FORMING HOLLOW PANELS.
Application filed December 24," 1925. Seria1No. 77,456."
In the-production of panels molded from gypsum plaster cement and the like, it is desirable to provide means whereby panels of desired length, width and thickness can be produced quickly and securely, with the minimum of mechanism, and in as simple as possible a manner. a f
It is the object of my invention toprovide a collapsible mold for this purpose in which the sections are articulated to, each other, and can be swung together, with proper adjustment to the finer degrees of spacing, with dovetails and grooves formed in the edges of the cast blocks, and suitable means for gripping forms. used in the positioning of any cores that may be used. i
In the production of plaster panels, it is a requirement for good work, that the plaster be subjected to pressure in the setting operation, and this I provide-in my mechanism by means of clamping bolts whichhave cam ends that are not swung into tightest posi tion at the start, and asthe plaster starts setting are tightened up by swinging; the cams around, as will be noted.
It is a feature of my mechanism, that the device can beset for forming a very wide range of sizes of panels and a very wide range of structurally different panels, since the forms for holding the end wall forming structures, are built up' to match the cross section of whatever style of panel is to be molded, and are clampedin position within the articulated side molding sections in whatever position they may be set there The cores are then set in place in the end sections, and when the plaster is setting the whole body is'subj'ected to pressure by tightening the position of the side walls of the mold to compress the body to the final crosssection, thus molding all outside and inside surfaces under pressure.
I attain my objects bythat certain construction and arrangement of parts to; be hereinafter more specifically pointed out and claimed. 7 1 a In the drawings; I

Figure-2 is a section on. thline 22 of Figurel; a
,4 Figure" 3 is a section f of at modification Figure 4; is a section entire? line of Figure 1,-shoW1ng-a device, 7,
section of the mounting Figure 5 is an elevation of an end post or filler. 7 As a base for my devicean I.-beam 1 secured to a suitable foundation will serve the purpose. Hinge brackets are spaced along the beam on 'bothsides below the fiangethereof, thesebrackets being formed with shanks 2*, that screw intothe web of thebeam, and have tubular heads marked 2. The mold sections have hinge leaf portions 3' thereon, and pintles 4 secured to the leaf portions over the tubular ends of the brackets; The shanks-2 are heldfirmly in place in the web of the beam by nuts 2", which are subject to adjustment, to control variations in spacing desired between the beam. I
The mold sections are made up of channel irons 5, secured together by wooden bars 6. The upper and lower edges of the sections are provided withangle iron bars 7, extending lengthwise thereof, which areflriveted to the vertical channels, thus providing the frame ofthe sections. I
' The sections arelinedwithmetalplates 8, which are; secured to the wooden bars or stringers.
. T p a a the closure for the mold at the bottom; and filler pieces 8"; can be placed at the sides of the top fiange,in adjusted positions of the mold sections. Also'for forming a groove lengthwise of the panel, a strip 8" may be placed on the top of the beam flange; I have shown this strip as formed of metal and permanently set in a countersink lengthwise of the beam flange.
To provide a tongue along the other end oi the form I mount two strips of Wood or metal at the upper ends of the movable .mold sections, one oneach side, leaving a space between them which can be filled with the cast body, thus forming'a rib or tongue lengthwise of the molded article.
In order to make this adjustable for location, I provide for a; series of holes 9 in the wooden bars or stringers forming the frame of the sections. Screws 10set in the strips 1 1 pass through these holes'and are secured by nut'saonvthe outsi-de of the chain nel-s In the? drawings l have shown the strips 11 held iir placeondtlie' depending flangedfithe top angle bars of the two sec.-
tions; and it: will: be: understood that this mounting; of the tongue forming boards or flange of the base beam provides arms 12 to the frame channels of one of the" hinged sections. Pivoted to these brackets are swing bolts 13, having a turnbuckle 14:
forming part of the shanks thereof, and having pivoted earns 15 forming the heads thereof.
The forked brackets 16 are mounted along the other of'the sections, into the forks of which the swing bolts are moved, and by swinging down on. the handles 17 on the cam heads, theseare rocked against the tines of the forked brackets, and clamp the two sections together. The spacing of the sections is. provided by the flange of the supporting beam below;
For mounting any cores that may be used, I do not require special mechanism, and have illustrated none. be arranged in any apertured posts in which the cores rest and the post he set in vertical position between the sections as they are being clamped together. Such posts will be counterpartsof a section of the final product, as for example the postillustrated at 18.
In an alternative form of device of Figure 3, Ihave shown beams or supports 20 onto which the mold may be set, it being of a type to be poured when. in' horizontal position. The sectionsforming the hinged leaves are alike to those already described and have been marked 21 and 22. Bolted to the angle irons 23 of the two sections are hinge leaves 24, joined by pintles 25. An angle iron 26 forms the one end wall and the angle iron 27 forms the other. l/Veights 28 are secured to each of the sections, opposing the closing and clamping movement of the swing bolts 29,- which are of similar structure to those already described.
In operation the usual form, as first-1y described, will be filled from the top. The operator first sets the mold for thickness by adjusting the base connections, and filling out the'base beam top flange, and also adjust} ing the turnbuckles on the swing bolts. He also sets the boards forming the tongue along one edge of'the block, and arranges the up right posts forming the other edge walls, with suitable collapsible cores extending therethrough, and passing across the space between the mold sections. The mold is then closed sufliciently to hook the bolts over from one section to the other, thereby grasping the upright posts inwhatever position theyhave been arranged. The plaster is then poured into the mold until it reaches the top boards, wherever they have been set.
The plaster then is permitted to partially set, and the operator then swings down the A set of cores may handles on the bolts thus forcing the plaster to aicompressed condition against all sur' faces of the form, upon which the plaster abuts. The molding of the panel is then continuedto hardness, under this compres close the gap between the sections, and means for securing said sections together-along their other edges away" from' the hinged edges, comprising swing bolts and forks;

5. A mold for forming plaster panels comprising a-beam havinga' flangeacting as a spacer between the mold sections, mold sections hingedly secured to said-beam below the flange, and means for retaining the opposite. edges of the sections together, filler pieces added to the flange of the beam at the sides thereof, and"means for adjusting the means for retaining the opposite'edg'es.
