  • Lazarus Attorney, Agent, or Firm-Cameron, Kerkam & Sutton ABSTRACT Prestressed cast concrete structural members which are T-shape or multiple T-shape in cross section are cast in a metal mold.
  • Each T portion of the mold comprises inverted L-shape form members, the depending portions of which have pin members affixed thereto.
  • the pin members are cooperatively received in diagonal slots of a horizontally movable cam plate. Movement of the cam' plate causes the depending portions to move laterally away from one another to enable stripping of the cast member. from the form.
  • a separately constructed vertically movable horizontal pallet member forms the bottom surface of the form and includes a roller transfer assembly supported on an elevator mechanism. By cam action, the cast member is raised and then transferred to a roller conveyor which engages the bottom surfaces of the extending arms of the cast member. The roller conveyor transfers the member to another work area.
  • mold forms are usually employed which are open at the top for reception of the fluid concrete mix.
  • the fluid concrete mix is set and the cast product is to be removed from the mold, it must be possible to establish clearance between the product and the sidewalls of the mold to strip the product therefrom. This stripping clearance heretofore has been obtained by a variety of ways.
  • a device is connected to the upper end of the mold sidewall and adapted to draw the sidewall away from the molded product.
  • a device is suitable for cast columnar members, however, in the case of concrete T-slabs access to the side walls is denied by virtue of the continuous outwardly extending cast surfaces (arms of the T) which are cast above the forms.
  • the apparatus embodying the present invention is particularly adapted for use in making concrete structural members in accordance with either a fixed bed process of the type described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,217,375 or a movable bed process of the type described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,523,343.
  • the structural member is formed on a stationary casting bed by means of hopper and roller units which travel the length of the bed, after which the remainder of the structural member, including the core openings therein, is produced by a casting machine which also moves along the bed. The completed member is then cured and subsequently cut into desired lengths.
  • Such a process is commonly referred to as a stationary bed process.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 3,523,343 describes a moving bed process wherein a manufacturing area contains sequentially used items of production equipment suitably housed and located centrally'between an elongated curing area and a similarly elongated unloading overrun area.
  • a casting bed moves back and forth several times during each production cycle while the various operations of the manufacturing process are performed.
  • the casting bed comprises a lengthy stress frame which is mounted on a track extending the full length of the facility and carries a molding form in normally remains stationary in the manufacturing area while the bed moves beneath it.
  • the casting bed is moved along the track at any desired speed in either direction by suitable driving means such as two sets'of selectively operable hydraulic motors which are located on opposite sides of the manufacturing area and which drive rubber tired wheels having frictional engagement with the stress frame.
  • the present invention is advantageously suitable for use in either the stationary bed process or the movable bed process and resides in the structural arrangement of the molding apparatus and the manner in which the molded concrete slab is stripped therefrom. To this end it is a primary object of the present invention to provide an improved molding apparatus which facilitates the stripping of precast slabs from the mold.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an improved apparatus for the production of cast concrete members which reduces to a minimum the time and labor required to manufacture the cast members and to strip the molded product from its mold.
  • the apparatus of the present invention is characterized in that prestressed concrete slabs which are T- shape or multiple T-shape are cast in forms comprising inverted L-shape sections closed at the bottom by a horizontal pallet or form member.
  • the horizontal form member includes supporting rollers adapted to ride on an elevating mechanism assembly having a downwardly extending cam follower.
  • the cam follower is adapted to cooperate with a longitudinally driven stepped cam.
  • a horizontally movable cam plate Upon completion of casting, movement of the cam plate causes relative movement between the side forms and the cast T-member which is sufficient to spring the side forms clear of the cast member and permit stripping of the cast member from its form.
  • the stepped cam is actuated to cause the slab to be raised above the form and transferred by the supporting roller assembly to a roller conveyor disposed beneath the extending arms of the cast slab. The roller conveyor transfers the slab to a storage or other work area.
  • the preferred embodiment of the invention described herein relates to the formation of cast slabs which are multiple T-shape in cross section formed in a moving bed process. It should be understood, however, that the inventive concept is also applicable to the manufacture of other forms of structural members including a vertically disposed cast section formed between two vertically disposed wall members and that the term structural member as used herein is not limited to load-bearing members, but also includes such other precast elements as wall panels, partitions, column covers and like.
