Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a formwork column for making concrete columns with cylindrical or square cross-section.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,255,071 is described a formwork column which in some embodiments is longitudinally extendable. In one variant this is foreseen by means of a bellow ( FIG. 3 ) while the formwork column in another variant is comprised by two cylindrical formwork parts with marginally different cross-section, arranged to overlap one another to a varying extent in the vertical direction.
  • the thickness is also adjustable by that each formwork part, being comprised by a plate formed to a cylinder shape, can be arranged with a varying (horizontal) overlap; see e.g. FIG. 1-2 and FIG. 12 .
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,277,204 also describes a formwork column which is telescopically adjustable and where each part, a lower and an upper part, is made by bending a flexible plate to a circular shape with a certain longitudinal overlap of the edges that meet in a longitudinal joint along the cylinder wall. Large fittings or bands are tightened around the cylinder wall at certain intervals to ensure that the cylinder shape is maintained before and during use.
  • This formwork also comprises a flexible bag large enough to cover the inner walls of the formwork; some kind of lining. This is a relatively complex structure to handle and devices for holding the bag in position before and while it is being filled, to prevent it from being torn loose and ending up under the casting mass, thereby loosing its function, are shown.
  • thin-plate elements according to the invention ensures that there are hardly visible edges from the formwork in the casted column, which means less follow-up to obtain a desired result. Absence of overlapping joints in the length direction completely eliminated longitudinal edges (vertical edge) in the columns casted with the formwork.
  • the formwork according to the present invention is furthermore easy to manage, even for one person, it is easy to adjust its length and it is closed and locked to desired length in one and the same operation.
  • FIG. 1 is a naval view of a section of an embodiment of a formwork column according to the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of an area of the formwork column shown in FIG. 1 .
  • FIGS. 3 a and 3 b show a wedge-shaped tightening member for use with the formwork column according to the present invention, in a front view and a side view.
  • FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the formwork column of FIG. 1 with an expansion element.
  • FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the formwork column of FIG. 1 with additional elements for square columns.
  • FIG. 6 is an alternative variant of the embodiment shown in FIG. 5 .
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspectivel view of part of a formwork column 1 according to the present invention comprising two mainly cylindrical thin-plate elements 2 , 3 partly overlapping one another.
  • Thin-plate element 2 has a longitudinal opening in its periphery flanked by flanges 4 and thin-plate element 3 has a longitudinal opening in its periphery flanked by flanges 5 .
  • holes 6 are arranged at certain intervals and adjacent to each other so that locking plugs can be inserted through “pair” of holes 6 in the flanges 4 at each side of the longitudinal opening, and by tightening also closing the longitudinal opening in thin-plate element 2 .
  • the flanges 5 have holes 7 at a common interval and adjacent to each other so that locking plugs can be inserted through “pair” of holes 7 in the flanges 5 at each side of the longitudinal opening, and by tightening also closing the longitudinal opening in thin-plate element 3 .
  • one and the same locking plug can be inserted through holes 6 as well as holes 7 and thereby, in addition to close a longitudinal opening in the periphery, also lock the length of the formwork column 1 .
  • Thin-plate elements are typically made of steel and with a thickness less than 1.5 mm, preferably about 0.9 mm.
  • the holes 6 and 7 in respective elements 2 and 3 are shown as oblong in the longitudinal direction. It is preferred that at least one set of holes 6 or 7 is oblong to allow a stepless fine-tuning of the length of the formwork column.
  • FIG. 2 shows a section of a part of thin-plate elements 2 and 3 in the region in which they overlap one another subsequent to attachment means in the form of a locking plug 8 has been inserted into double pair of holes 6 , 7 at each side of the longitudinal opening in the cylinder periphery and tightened by a wedge-shaped tightening member (tightening wedge) 10 .
  • the locking plug 8 can be of any suitable type of which so-called cassette locks, with a head, included a disc, which is too large to pass through the holes 6 and 7 , and with a head in the opposite end small enough to pass through the holes 6 and 7 for thereafter to be tightened by a particular device.
  • the tightening wedge 10 can as an example be that particular device.
  • rails 9 or plates of metal with holes corresponding to the holes 6 and 7 are placed to distribute the tension from a locking plug and tightening wedge so that no point of the thin flanges 6 and 7 shall be overloaded.
  • the rails 9 can have different length and typically extend for a number of holes between 2 and 8 along the flanges of the formwork column.
  • the rails 9 having holes “corresponding” to the flanges 4 and 5 means that their mutual interval is the same.
  • the holes in the rails 9 need not have the exact same shape and they can be circularly even if the holes in the flanges are oblong.
  • FIG. 3 a shows a tightening wedge 10 in a front view while FIG. 3 b shows the same tightening wedge in a side view. It has a through hole 31 a in the thin end 32 of the tightening wedge and a track 31 b that extends from the hole 31 and into the thicker part 33 of the tightening wedge 10 which gradually increases in thickness towards the end away from the hole 31 a .
  • the diameter of the hole 31 a is larger than the (small) head of the locking plug 8 or the cassette lock, while the width of the track 31 b is less than the diameter of the head of the locking plug or the cassette lock.
  • the tightening wedge is quick in use and is attached with a light knock to its thick end 34 by hand or by a club or hammer, and is loosened again with a light knock to its thin end 35 .
  • FIG. 4 shows a cross-section principally equal to the one shown in FIG. 2 but with two differences.
  • One difference is that the cross-section is positioned outside (vertically above) the area in which the two parts 2 , 3 of the formwork column overlap each other.
  • the other difference is of technical character and is comprised by an expansion element 41 being positioned adjacent to the flanges 4 with a double flange 42 having holes corresponding to the holes 6 in the flanges 4 , so that it is possible to pull the flanges 4 apart and to place spacing laths 43 , also these provided with holes for locking plugs, between the flanges 4 and the flange 42 . In this way the thickness of a column can be finely adjusted without changing the formwork column when desired.
  • the expansion element 41 is however, not telescopic, and must be cut to relevant length when it is required to use such an element. In the area where upper and lower element 2 , 3 overlap each other, there will be a total of six flanges (or four single 4 , 5 and a double 42 ) that the locking plug 8 must penetrate. It is therefore important that the plates are of limited thickness and typically do not constitute more than about 6 mm in total.
  • FIG. 5 shows a variant of formwork column according to the present invention intended for casting of columns with a substantially square cross-section.
  • the outer thin-plate element 2 with circularly cross-section as described above is used also for this embodiment, but inside this is arranged a thin-plate formwork element 52 of mainly square cross-section, supported externally by formwork element 2 .
  • a telescopically arranged cylindrical element as shown in FIG. 1 is used above or below the cylindrical element 2 and a telescopically arranged formwork element above or below formwork element 52 , with same cross-sectional shape as the latter. All formwork elements used have external flanges with holes as already described.
  • the substantially square formwork element 52 is supported directly by the externally arranged formwork element 2 with circularly cross-section.
  • a cross-section that slightly deviates from a square may be used, in that each corner is slightly bevelled 53 .
  • support profiles 54 which continuously or in sections run mainly through the entire height of the column.
  • the support profile 54 can be made in any suitable material but is preferably made of steel.
  • FIG. 6 shows principally the same as FIG. 5 but here the support profile 54 is replaced by a mould body (“formlegeme”) 64 that to a larger extent fills the volume between the outer formwork element 2 of circularly cross-section and the inner formwork element 52 having a square cross-section.
  • a mould body 64 may typically be made in a material substantially lighter than steel, such as e.g. polyurethane which is sufficiently rigid when a substantial part of its surface is externally supported.
  • telescopic formwork elements overlap each other in this embodiment, there are a total of four overlapping elements, two cylindrical and two square ones. If all elements are provided with flanges in the entire length of the elements, there will be a total of eight flanges to be penetrated by each locking plug in the overlap area. It can, however, be convenient to omit the flanges on the mainly square profiles near both ends of these profiles. Thereby is prevented that the number of flanges to be penetrated by the locking plugs exceeds six.
  • the present invention provides a number of advantages over the priory known technology in the field. It provides a telescopic formwork column where the length can be adjusted stepless and where there are practically no visible edges in the casted column requiring subsequent treatment. In addition it provides a very quick closure of the formwork and a correspondingly quick and precise locking, in principle not depending upon tool use. It provides possibilities for casting columns having circularly cross-section as well as square cross-section, optionally with cut-off corners. With respect to columns of circularly cross-sections, there is the possibility by means of an expansion element, to make thickness adaptations (diameter adjustments) without changing formwork column. In other words, the thickness may be changes in steps—or almost stepless—as the need may be, by means of standard elements in addition to the expansion element.
