.Thisdnventionirelates to inatable cores for use in .castinghollow concrete units and in particular with non-.circular cores.
.Such cores consist, in general,.of a number of inflatable tubes arranged longitudinally `side by side. lIn some cases. the .tubes are separate tubes and 'in othersthey areformed by bending a single tube upondtself.
In any case the non-circulariniiatable unit as a wholehasto be enclosed in a cover.
It is necessary, `for the successful operation of such -cores,fthatl when, after the casting operation has beencompleted and the concrete has to some extent set, the core on deflation will separaterom walls ofthe hollow slab so as to permit Withdrawal of vthe* core.
Thepresent invention isconcerned primarily with an enclosing outer cover for such cores and has .for its object-soto construct this outer cover thatv on deflation the core can ybe easily .and quickly withdrawn from the cast unit.
In accordance with the invention We construct the .cover of two -steelvor .like plates `flexibly connected together throughout their length.
The invention consists broadly of a cover for containingu the inflatable elements of inflatable cores for use in the casting of hollow concrete units comprising topuancl. bottom `metal plates exibly connected together longitudinally, and further comprises an inflatable core for use in the casting of hollow concrete units comprising iniiatable tubesl located; bletweeiriand; associated with topand bottom plates flexibly connected together. 'so that the distance separating such plates Itransversely can be varied by the ination and.' deflation ofthe inatable tube.
The 'invention' is'illu'strated in the accompanying drawing,
Figure 1 being a transverse sectional perspective view of one form of the invention.
Figure 2 is a similar View of another method of carrying out the invention.
Figure 3 is a transverse sectional view of the construction shown in Figure 2.
Figure 4 is a similar view of a modification of the arrangement shown in Figures 2 and 3.
Figure 5 is a section on the line A-A of Figure 4 and Figures 6 and 7 are longitudinal sectional and end views respectively of a further method of carrying out the invention.
Referring to these drawings and particularly to Figure 1, the numeral I indicates top and bottom plates which may conveniently be of steel. To the ends of these plates Il flexible side walls 2 are connected. Such side walls may advantageously be of irubberised cotton and maysbe provided with rods or beads 3 attheir longitudinal edges to enable them to be clamped `se curely in position by means of the clamping strips 4.
The cover is shown in itsdistended position within a concrete unit, the'numeral 5. indicating inflating tubes of which :theremay be any required number. In the drawing, three-:argindicated, but it will -be understood that thecentral onemight quite'well be replaced .byv a solid separator.
Referring now to Figures 2 and 3, the plates I, in this example, have bridge pieces orfba'ttens 6 attached to their innerfaces, thefinfl'ating :tubes 5 are encased in outer covers 5a, that are'provided with longitudinally spa-ced sleeves I that form eyeletsV and the plates I are connected together and to the inflating tubes by means of the longitudinal lacing' rods 8 which ypass through `the bridge pieces 6 and the eyelet sleeves .'I, which are cut away at the positions 9 'td-accommodate the ends of the bridge lpieces'zi. Figure 2 shows the iniiation tubes 5 encased in their usual outer covers. 5a operating to effect the separationfof the top and bottom plates Ivand it will be understood that the inflation pressure, in all casca-need only be suiicient to support-the weight offconcrete resting on thetopfof .the `core-duringthe casting operation.
Figures 4 and 5, so .far asthefinventionis. concerned, are precisely the same as the construction shown inFigures 2 and 3 but are included to show a case where four, instead of two, inflating tubes 5b are employed, ,the twin .inflation tubes proper on each side being .enclosedin la composite outer fabric casing as shown. Figure 5, however, also serves t0 show how a pulling handle I0 may be arranged to facilitate withdrawal of the core as a whole from the cast unit and also indicates at II the tubes for connection to the inlating pump or pumps.
Figures 6 and 7 show more or less diagrammatically a further method of carrying out the invention. In this case, Wooden battens I2 are attached to the inner surfaces of the plates I, screw type eyelet rings 'Ia are screwed into the side walls of the battens, and the plates I are connected together and to the iniiation tubes 5 by longitudinal lacing rods 8 threaded or laced through rings 'la and eyelet sleeves I, much in the manner previously described with reference to Figures 2 and 3.
Intermediate the two inating tubes 5, wooden spacers or stop blocks I2a may be provided or,
of course, the whole lateral space between the plates I may be filled with ination tubes. The inflation tubes may be connected together by a manifold device I3 so that they can both be inflated simultaneously by way of a common air inlet tube and valve device I4. Pulling handles I5 attached to the plates i may be provided.
It will vbe plain that, in all cases, on deflation of the inflatable tube or tubes, the top plate will fall away from the concrete and the flexible side walls will collapse sufciently to loosen the whole core structure from the surrounding' concrete and enable it to be withdrawn.
We claim:
