Kimball, Ztl-Zd Milvia St., Berkeley, Calif. Filed Dee. 6, 1%2, Ser. No. 242,863 1t? Qlaims. tl. 25-l31) This invention relates to and in general has for its object the provision of a concrete wall form made up of standard components yarranged to be magnetically secured and which can be readily assembled, disassembled and reused.
Normally, each side of a concrete wall form is made by erecting wooden studs along one of the lines of the concrete wall to be poured and nailing sheathing boards to the studs. Spacers disposed between the two parallel walls so formed serve to retain the walls in parallelism while the concrete is being poured and during the initial curing period thereof. When the concrete has set, the forms are dismantled, and in this process are subjected to considerable damage. Many of the components are therefore not suitable for reuse. Furthermore, the erection of forms of this character requires the services of skilled labor.
More specifically, one or" the objects of this invention is the provision of a fabricated aluminum alloy girder provided along its length with permanent magnets and armatures spaced on a predetermined modulus so that a plurality of such girders can be magnetically secured in a grid formation to serve as supporting structure for the sheathing of -a concrete wall form.
Another object of this invention is the provision of a sheath section provided on its surface with a grid pattern of armatures wherein the armatures are spaced in both directions on a modulus identical to the spacing of the magnets and armatures of the girders.
A further object of this invention is the provision, in combination with a grid of the character above described, of a clip for mechanically securing the cross members of the grid against sliding movement over its upright mem bers.
Still another object of this invention is the provision, in combination with a grid structure of the character above described, of struts or bracing members for securing the grid in an upright position.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a girder of the character above described having notched or odset ends whereby the ends of two of such girders can be lap-joined to form an extended ghder.
The invention possesses other `advantageous features, some of which, with the foregoing, will be set forth at length in the following description where that form of the invention which has been selected for illustration in the drawings accompanying and forming a part of the present specification is outlined in full. In said drawings, one form of the invention is shown, but it is to be understood that it is not limited to such form, since the invention -as set forth in the claims may be embodied in other forms.
Referring to the drawings:
FG. l is a fragmentary end elevation of a concrete form embodying the objects of my invention yand wherein portions thereof are broken yaway and other portions thereof shown in section. Y
PEG. 2 is a top plan view of the structure illustrated in FIG. l.
FlG. 3 is a fragmentary perspective of the structure FIG. 7 is a plan of a section of plywood sheathing provided with magnet armatures.
FIG. 8 is la fragmentary front elevational detail of one of the magnet and armature assemblies.
The forms illustrated in FGS. l, 2 and 3 include a first set of spaced, parallel upright girders (strongbacks or studs) generally designated by the lreference numeral i and a second set of spaced parallel girders (walers) overlying said lirst set of girders at right angles thereto and generally designated by the reference numeral 2, but which preferably are identical to the girders l.
Conveniently, each of the girders 1 and Z is made up of a pair of identical, spaced parallel aluminum alloy channels 3 and 4 facing away from each other md held in spaced relation with each other by -an intervening perma nent cylindrical bar magnet generally designated by the reference numeral 5 and by a rectangular soft iron armature and spreader 6. Both the magnet S and the armature 6 are cemented or otherwise bonded to each other and to their associated girders l and 2.
As best shown in FIG. 8, each magnet 5 is encased in a cylindrical shell 7 of nonferrous metal. The corresponding ends (north poles, for example) of the magnets are iiush with one face of their associated girder with their axes normal to the length of the girder. The armature contiguous to each magnet has one of its faces flush with the opposite side of the girder. All of the magnets are identical and likewise all of the armatures are identical.
As best indicated in PEG. 3, the ends of the channels 3 and 4l making up each of the girders il and 2 are longitudinally offset as at 8 so that two such girders can be placed end to end in a lap joint land rigidly connected by a spacing bolt 9.
Connecting each pair of channels 3 and i of each of the girders at points midway each pair of magnets and armatures is a bolt 1i. Since the bolts il are located midway each pair of magnets, they `are spaced on the same modulus as are the magnets.
lf the girders used as uprights are spaced on this same modulus, and the girders used `as the cross members of the structure me spaced `on this modulus the magnets of the cross members can be made to register with the armatures of the upright member, or vice versa, to thus magnetically hold the uprights and cross members in -a rectangular or square grid arrangement.
The girders above described constitute one of the basic components of my wall form.
The second ybasic component of this form consists of a rectangular section i2 of plywood or the like, the width and length of which are multiples of the above stated modulus (FIG. 7). Embedded over the surface of the section l2 in square pattern are soft iron armatures 25.3, likewise located on the above stated modulus.
As a result of this construction, such section ft2 can be placed over the iirst set of upright girders with the arma tures 13 of the sections l2 in registration and magnetic contact with the magnets 5 of the upright girders.
Although considerable force is required to pull an armature away hom its associated magent, considerably less force is required to slide one of these members over the other. Since the cross girders of a form structure of the character above described are often used to climb on, it is essential to provide a mechanical interlock between the cross girders and the upright girders. The third component of my concrete wall form therefore consists of the spring clips generally designated by the reference numeral 14 (FIG. l). Y
Each of the clips i4 is conveniently made of spring steel wire and includes a straight vertical section 15 arranged to overlie the outer side of one of the cross girders 2. The section 15 terminates at its lower end` in an right girders.
inwardly and upwardly bent catch 16 arranged to be clipped or sprung over the outer, downwardly extending tiange ot the lower channel d of the cross girder. The upperV end of the clip section 15 merges with an inclined section 15a terminating in an open hook 18 arranged to beY hooked over one of the bolts 11. In applying the clip 14 it is iirst hooped over the bolt 11 and then its catch 16 is forced over the lower outer ange of the cross girder.
The 'fourth component of -my wall structure consists of longitudinally adjustable struts or braces generally designated by the reference numeral 17 (FIGS. 3, 4 and used, as best shown in FIG. 3, to support the wallV form structure in an upright position.
More specifically each of the struts 17 includes a pair of telescoping tubular sections 18 and 19 arranged to be locked together in any angular and longitudinally adjusted position relative to each by a set screw 21. Formed on the free-end of each of the sections 18 and 19 is an angularly oitset dat 22 and provided in each iat 22 is a transverse notch 23.
Mounted on a plank 24 or other suitable base member are a plurality of pairs of spaced angles 25 and 26, and extending across the upstanding legs of each pair of angles is a pin or bolt 27. As best shown in FIG. 3, the plank 24 is spaced from the wall form in parallelism therewith, and the pairs of angles Z5 and 25 .are spaced along the plank on the same modulus used for spacing the magnets and armatures 5 and 6, or some multiple thereof. Each pair of angles 25 and 26 should be located on a line normal to the plane of the wall form and bisecting a line joining two adjacent pairs of upright girders. With plank 24 and its angles 25 and 26 so arranged relative to the upright girders 1, the upper iiat 22 of one of the struts 17 can be hooked over one of the girder bolts 11 and its lower at can be hooked over the pin or bolt 27 of the pair of angles 25' and'26. Since each strut 17 is made from the two telescoping sections 18 and 19, it can be adjusted lengthwisek as required, and the angularityY of the strut flats 22 can be adjusted to bring them into parallelism with the upright girders. In this fashion the wall form can be braced in an upright position, all as indicated in FIG. 3.
One preferred sequence of steps in erecting my wall form is first to locate the desired line of the concrete wall to be poured. The plank 24V or other base member is then properly located relative to this line. At least some of the upright girders are then positioned adjacent the wall line and braced by the struts 17 as above described. Following this, the cross girders are positioned over the upright girders with the magents and armatures thereof in magnetic engagement with each other. I'he remain- 'mg upright girders can be erected and then the cross girders mechanically locked to the upright girders by use of the spring clips 14, all as above described. This having been done, the sheath sections 12 are placed against the faces of the uprightgirders with the armatures 13 thereof in magnetic engagement with the magnets 5 of the uf*- GtherY sequences are of course possible.
A complete form is of course formed by two spaced, opposed wall forms of the character above described, this being shown in FIG. 2. Y
Following .conventional practice, tie rods or wires 31 are strung between and through the two opposed sheathing sections and secured either to these sections or to the cross girders as shown in FIG. 2 and reinforcing rods 32 placed in position.
Although the upright and cross girders 1 and Zihave been illustrated and described as being made up of aV pair of opposed channels, otherstrnctural forms such as bars, angles, I and `H beams can of course be used yfor this purpose.V The essential factor here is that a girder of some sort be provided at equal spaced pointswith pergirders can be positioned end to end and spliced in a lap joint.
Also, it is to be noted that metal sheathing can be used in place of wooden sheathing. If light-gauge steel sheathing is used, there is of course no need for providing such sheathing with spaced armatures. The justication of using metal sheathing depends upon the life thereof as against the life of wooden sheathing.
By resorting to the standard wall form components abovejdescrioed, wall forms of any `desired height and length can be easily erected by unskilled labor. The modular disposition of the magnets and armatures permits the upright and cross girders to be definitely and readily located relative to each other and held in place without the necessity of measuring or nailing. In a sense the magnets and armatures'serve as means for keying the uprights and cross members to each other only at predetermined points. Since the girder bolts 11 are all located on a predetermined modulus, and since the spring clips 14 are all standard, it is possible to apply them only at predetermined points for the purpose of mechanically locking the cross girders to the uprights at their points of intersection. In short, there is only one readily apparent way of erecting the various components of my wall form.
Another advantage of a wall form of this kind is that it can be readily dismantled without damage to its components and then such components can be reused many times. i
