Wire holdingY and prestressingdevices oon-r structed in accordance with this invention are designed for use in connection with concrete pouring forms, which as shown for purposes of illustration in Figs. 1, 2 and 8, may be saidl to generally comprise a pair of spaced end walls a connected by side walls b. .The several lengths of reinforcing wire w extend lengthwise through the pouring form so as rto become embedded in the concrete when the forms are lled with iiuid concrete. The end sections w. of the wire lengths w project through the end walls a of the pouring forms and the wire holding and prestressing devices A of this invention are designed to be removablyattached to the projecting end sections w of the wire lengths .and to seat against the adjacent end wall a of the pouring form.
This improved device for holding and prestressing concrete reinforcing wire generally comprises a casing yI which may be made of stamped or cast metal. The casing I0 may have a circular or polygonal interior bore II which is open at the base end thereof and is provided with a head section I2 at the other end thereof, as shown in Figs. 3 and 5. The base end of the casing is provided with an outwardly flared foot section I3 designed to seat against the end wall a of the pouring form. The foot section I3 may be provided with a plurality of spaced holes I4 through which nails or like securing means c may be inserted to temporarily secure the casing I0 to the end wall a of thev pouring form.
A block I5 is designed tc reciprocate within the bore II of the casing and may be generally vU- shaped in configuration, presenting a head portion I6 having a pair of spaced legs I7 extending therefrom in the direction of the base end of the casing I6. The reciprocating block I5 has a tubular shaft section I8 extending from the head portion I6 thereof. The bore I9 in the tubular stem section I6. is of ample diameter to permit various sizes of reinforcing wire to be threaded therethrough. The shaft section I6 extends through a conforming bore I2 in the head section I2 of the casing I0. A sturdy manipulating nut threads over the heavy external threads 2| which encircle the stem section I8, with the base of the nut 26 designed to seat against the flat end face 22 of the head section I2 of the casing I0.
Wire gripping means associated with the leg portions I8 of the reciprocable block I5 is provided to firmly and tenaciously grip the end section w of the reinforcing wire w threaded between the leg portions I? andthrough the bore I9 in the stem section I8. The wire gripping means comprises a pair of spaced stud pins 25 which are secured to the leg portions I'I and span the space therebetween, as shown in Figs. 3, 5 and 8. The stud pins 25 are so located that the end section w of the reinforcing wire will initially lightly rest thereon when the wire end section is threaded through the bore I9 of the stem section i8. A wire gripping dog 26 is positioned directly above the wire supporting studs 25 and is hingedly mounted at one end thereof between the spaced leg portions I'! of the reciprocable block i5 by a hinge pin. 2 which extends between and is secured to the special leg portions I'I of the block I5. The lower edge of the dog 26 is provided with a nose portion 23 formed integrally therewith which is located so that it may be swung between the spaced wire supporting studs 25.
When the reciprocable block I5 is in the retracted position shown in Fig. 3, the Wire gripping dog 26 is free to swing upwardly so that the straight endfsection-w of the wire can be strung between the wire supporting studs 25 and the nose portion 28 of the dog 26 with the heel portion 29 of the dog adjacent the interior surface of the casing bore I I. However, means are provided to forcibly swing the dog 26 downwardly so that the nose portion 2B will project between the wire supporting studs 25 to thereby form a kink w in the wire and thus ensure a rm grip on the wire when the reciprocable block I5 is drawn towards the head section i2 of the casing. The means for manipulating the dog 26 into gripping engagement with the Wire comprises a cam plate 30 which may be secured as by screws 3l to the inner surface of the casing I0 directly above the pivotally mounted dog 26. The cam plate 35 has a tapered camming surface 32against which the heel portion 29 of the gripping dog may cam when the reciprocable block I5 is drawn toward the head section I2 of the casing I0.
By an appropriate rotation of the manipulating nut 26, the reciprocable block I5 may be drawn toward the head section I2 of the casing to thereby drag the heelportion 29 of the gripping dog 26 longitudinally along the tapered camming surface 32 of the cam plate 30 in a manner to forcibly drive the nose portion 28 thereof against that portion of the reinforcing wire which spans thel wire supporting stud 25, to thereby form a decided bend or kink in the stud spanning portion w of the wire, as illustrated in Fig. 5. Continued tightening manipulation of the nut 20 serves; to draw the reinforcing wire taut and maintain the reinforcing wire in the desired taut and prestressed condition during pouring of the concrete into the pouring form and hardening thereof to the desired hardness.
Torensure smooth reciprocating movement of the block I5 within the casing I6, a guide plate 35 is provided which is positioned between the leg portionsr Il of the block I5 Aand is secured as by screws 36 to the adjacent inside face of the casing. Il). The side edges 3l of the guide plate 35 `have bearing conta-ct with the inside faces of the leg portions il of the block I5 and thus prevent rotative movement of the block I5 within the casing IQ and ensure smooth reciprocating movement thereof. The guide plate 35 additionally serves as a stop means to limit the retracting movement ofthe block I5. It will be noted that when the reciprocable block I5 is in its fully retracted position as indicated in Fig. 3, the inside face of the head portion I6 of the block I5 will abut against the end 38 of the guide plate 35 to thereby also limit the retracted positioxr tithe block; I E?

With the .gripping dog 26 and Wire supporting studs 25 thus located, the entire casing ID and its associated reciprocable block I5 can be drawn off from the projecting end section w of the reinforcing wire w.
This improved wire holding and prestressing device may be sturdily constructed from a relatively few and simple parts at relatively low cost, and can easily and quickly be attached and detached to various sizes of concrete reinforcing wire. These improved devices provide a convenient and practical accessory to mechanics er1- gaged in building concrete structures which can be used to effect substantial savings in time and labor in holding, prestressing and maintaining taut the reinforcing wires in concrete forms.
