- the positions of the openings U which are out of view from the observer'and are through the opposite lateral side of the sup port from the side shown are indicated by dotted lines and shown to be at different levels from those th'roughthe lateral side which is in view in this figure. With the holes ll distributed in this manner the locks extending through opposite lateral sides of the support cannot obstruct each other.
- a plate K comprising vtliour boards, is shown held in position adjacent the mold space and adjacent a flange F of the support. Part of another plate K is shown directly below. Locks (P C2) are shown holding'the plates. In Fig. 2 .is shown a transverse section through the same construction. It shows how a lock (P Q) is held engaged with the support and how its screw member holds the plate K in position adjacent both the flange F and the mold space.
- This screw Q may be turned by a nail which may be inserted into one of the holes shown in Q near its outward end from the moldspace. These holes are preferably drilled at right angles to each other as shown. lVith this means of turning Q,
- a nail or pin may be used clear and free from obstruction by R or P.
- the channel shape G screwed to the boards of the plate K holds them together and reinforces their ends. Pressure between G andQ obviously prevents P being moved out of engagement with the support.
- the screw Q is movable relatively to P toward and from the mold space. To disengage the lock from the support, Q is turned so that it moves relatively to P a suflicient amount to permit the outer end of P from the mold space to be moved laterally of the support sufficiently to emerge from the hole U. This position of P is indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 2. From this position P can then be moved outwardly of the mold space sufiiciently to disengage its end which is nearest the mold space.
- the member P is preferably a casting.
- the member P is shown bearing laterally against the inside of a lateral side R of the support at a point nearer to the mold space than the part of P at its entrance to the opening U through the same lateral side
- the lock is thus prevented moving laterally from the support past the end of the plate K.
- the member P near its end nearest the mold space is shown wide enough to extend substantially between the two lat eral sides R which are thus adapted to prevent the lock moving laterally of the stud in either direction.
- the outer end of P from the mold space is shown bearing outwardly of the mold space and against the inside of the support. side opposite from the mold space.
- the outer part of P from the mold space is also shown bearing laterally of the support and against the inside of the lateral side R- opposite from the side B through which P extends. This prevents the outer end of P from moving laterally of the support when pressure is applied on Q.

- L in Figs. 1 and 3 are the body parts of rod clamps adapted to act as nuts on unthreaded rods.
- the channel bar H in Figs. 1, 6 and 7 is the body part of a splice for connecting two supports end to end or for slightly increasing the length of a single support.
- This body part is shown fitted about three sides of a support and secured to it by bolts S having eccentric heads engaging the side of slots S in the back of the support.
- the eccentric heads of the bolts S are each shown of greater length than width.
- the slots S are out of view in Fig. 6 but are indicated by dotted lines.
- the heads of the two lower bolts S in Fig. 6 are indicated by dotted lines extending at right angles to the slots S. WVhile the heads S are being inserted or removed from the support, they must be turned parallel to the slots S.
- the nuts on S may remain at all times thereon and S remain at all times connected with H. It is only necessary to tighten or loosen the nuts when connecting H to a support or removing it therefrom. While the heads of the bolts S are in engagement with a support, they may be prevented from turning by nails or pins T shown. disposed through small slets in the sides of the support and of H. These nails or pins may if desired be replaced by wire. H is shown reversible end for end and is obviously adapted to connect either end of another support with either end or the one shown, because the supports are also designed to be reversible end for end.

ROWLAND T. WALES, OF NERV RQCI'IELLE, NEW YORK..
MOLD FOR CONCRETE.
1919. Serial To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ROWLAND T. lVALns, a citizen of the United States of America, formerly residing in Sewaren, in the county of Middlesex and State of New Jersey, but now of New Rochelle, WVestchester county, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Molds for Concrete of which the following is a speci fication.
This invention provides certain improvements in molds for use in building structures of concrete or similar material, or for facing or covering structures with such material. The particularconstruction of molds to which these improvements apply embodies the following. The facing plates comprise panels of wood or of sheet metal against which the concrete or similar mate rial is molded. They may be simple boards or channels of sheet metal. The facing plates are called plates herein. They are supported by a framework comprising a series of supports disposed adjacent the mold space and preferably having flanges extending laterally from them and also ad jacent the mold space. The plates are held in position by means of locks which engage the supports. The supports maybe disposed vertically horizontally or inclined, to correspond with the face of the mold desired. Likewise they may be either straight or curved, a curved support being adapted for the inside of sewer or subway construction. The relative positions of plates, locks and supports will be substantially the same for different kinds of work. In wall forms the supports are also known as studs. in ceiling forms they are also known as joists. The supports may be secured and held in position by any usual or suitable method for securing and holding such members. An advantageous means is shown herein which comprises an improved kind of stringer. The plates are adjustable and movable relatively to the supports and adjustable into and out of position without affecting them. Plates are likewise adjustable and movable without affecting adjacent plates except in special cases. Each lock may be adjustable relatively to both plates and supports and without moving supports, other locks or other plates than the plate or plates imme diately held by it. Such construction permits using the same plates and. locks rt Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 5, 1920.
Continuation of application Serial No. 153,559, filed March '9, 1917. This application filed December 19,
peatedly in different parts of the same framework of supports before a job is completed. t also permits taking down the supports after stripping of plates and using the same supports again in another part of the job. While two supports are in any one upright position, a plate can be used between them repeatedly at subsequently higher levels each removal of the plate being made after the concrete behind it has become hard enough to stand up in the small area which the plate covered. The con struction of molds described in the foregoing has the following advantages over other kinds of molds:
1. Uses less mold material on a single job.
2. Uses the same mold material repeatedly and without destruction on successive jobs.
3. Is erected and dismantled quicker and with less labor.
4. Permits easy placing and supporting of any iron reinforcement within the mold space before the plates are locked in position.
5. Possesses all advantages of panel molds without sacrificing the strength and accuracy possible by using studs or joists as in other kinds of molds.
This invention provides certain new and useful improvements pertaining to the construction described in the foregoing and has made it more practical. Some of the objects accomplished by these improvements are given in the following:
1. Improved method of engaging the supports by the locks, permitting maximum strength of both locks and supports with minimum size and weight of both. An improved shape ofboth support and lock to correspond with the improved method of engagement.
2. Improved splice for connecting supports end to end or for slightly increasing the length of a support.
Improved stringers and means for securing them to the supports.
' l. improved means for splicing stringers end to end.
5. Improved facing plate of sheet metal having an improved and simple means of forming its ends and stiffenin them without obstructing its mold face or its sides, and for adapting its ends to bear with substantial force against bars withow'nt collapsin tion.
7 where they meet.
6. Improved accessories for molding corners of walls in combination with the type of mold described herein and with minimum labor and waste of mold material.

Locks (P C2) are shown holding'the plates. In Fig. 2 .is shown a transverse section through the same construction. It shows how a lock (P Q) is held engaged with the support and how its screw member holds the plate K in position adjacent both the flange F and the mold space. This screw Q; may be turned by a nail which may be inserted into one of the holes shown in Q near its outward end from the moldspace. These holes are preferably drilled at right angles to each other as shown. lVith this means of turning Q,
g a nail or pin may be used clear and free from obstruction by R or P. The channel shape G screwed to the boards of the plate K holds them together and reinforces their ends. Pressure between G andQ obviously prevents P being moved out of engagement with the support. The screw Q, is movable relatively to P toward and from the mold space. To disengage the lock from the support, Q is turned so that it moves relatively to P a suflicient amount to permit the outer end of P from the mold space to be moved laterally of the support sufficiently to emerge from the hole U. This position of P is indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 2. From this position P can then be moved outwardly of the mold space sufiiciently to disengage its end which is nearest the mold space. The member P is preferably a casting. These locks are comparatively small, compact and cheap and have great strength. They are simple, easy to operate and man of them can be conveniently placed in a pail, thereby facilitating their transportation. from place to place on the job, and their collection and preservation when the form is being taken down.v
The member P is shown bearing laterally against the inside of a lateral side R of the support at a point nearer to the mold space than the part of P at its entrance to the opening U through the same lateral side The lock is thus prevented moving laterally from the support past the end of the plate K. The member P near its end nearest the mold space is shown wide enough to extend substantially between the two lat eral sides R which are thus adapted to prevent the lock moving laterally of the stud in either direction. The outer end of P from the mold space is shown bearing outwardly of the mold space and against the inside of the support. side opposite from the mold space. The outer part of P from the mold space is also shown bearing laterally of the support and against the inside of the lateral side R- opposite from the side B through which P extends. This prevents the outer end of P from moving laterally of the support when pressure is applied on Q.
In Figs. 1, 3 and 6, V are tie rods for connecting supports on opposite sides of a wall or for otherwise holding them in position. In Fig. 6, V is shown in section and disposed in a hole through the support.
In Figs. 1 and 3, W are pipes encircling V and partly broken from view. They are sometimes used in the manner shown for the purpose of holding opposite sides of the mold properly spaced apart. X in Fig. 8 are sticks sometimes used for the same purpose. One is shown tied by wire to V and the other held in position by nails. L in Figs. 1 and 3 are the body parts of rod clamps adapted to act as nuts on unthreaded rods.
The channel bar H, in Figs. 1, 6 and 7 is the body part of a splice for connecting two supports end to end or for slightly increasing the length of a single support. This body part is shown fitted about three sides of a support and secured to it by bolts S having eccentric heads engaging the side of slots S in the back of the support. The eccentric heads of the bolts S are each shown of greater length than width. The slots S are out of view in Fig. 6 but are indicated by dotted lines. The heads of the two lower bolts S in Fig. 6 are indicated by dotted lines extending at right angles to the slots S. WVhile the heads S are being inserted or removed from the support, they must be turned parallel to the slots S. The nuts on S may remain at all times thereon and S remain at all times connected with H. It is only necessary to tighten or loosen the nuts when connecting H to a support or removing it therefrom. While the heads of the bolts S are in engagement with a support, they may be prevented from turning by nails or pins T shown. disposed through small slets in the sides of the support and of H. These nails or pins may if desired be replaced by wire. H is shown reversible end for end and is obviously adapted to connect either end of another support with either end or the one shown, because the supports are also designed to be reversible end for end. Since H, when connected with a support, prevents the engagement of locks therewith, bars N are shown riveted to the laterally extending anges B of H and carry screws Q for the same purpose as screws Q of the locks. The holes in N which receive the rivets O are countersunk as shown in dotted lines. Q and N on one side of H are shown dispesed at a different distance from the same end of H, from that of the parts Q and N on the opposite side of H. Their positions correspond as nearly as practical with the distribution of the holes U on opposite sides of the supports. While H is secured in position and the screws Q, have been moved sutfiriently outward of the mold, there is sutficient room between N and F or B and F to allow moving plates longitudinally of the support until past the ends of H.
.Y in Figs. 1, 3 and 8 is a stringer adapted for holding supports at proper intervals apart. End or splicing stringers Y are also shown in Figs. 1 and 8. Another inside stringer a is shown in Fig. 3. The stringers Y, Z, a, are secured to the supports by bolts (Id. The part q is a short channel shaped piece riveted to Y and furnishing a bearing surface for the nut on a bolt cl. Each bolt (Z has an eccentric head which is longer than wide. It is adapted to engage slots in the back of a support in the same manner as the bolts S already described and its head is prevented from turning by a nail or pin disposed through small slots in the lateral sides R of the support. In Fig. 1 and at two places in Fig. 3 is an end stringer Z adapted to be spliced to the end of a stringer Y and secured to a support near an end or corner of a mold. It is also adapted for securing tie rods longitudinally of it as illustrated by u and 10 It is also adapted for securing such rods so that they are adjustable longitudinally of it. For this, the end transverse face or shoulder through which 7 the tie rod passes, and against which bears a clamp secured to the rod. This is illustrated by 1 on the left side of Fig. 3. The part 1' is a short piece of sheet metal bent and perforated desired and is shown riveted to Z. It furnishes a bearing surface for the nut L on d and has an opening for admitting a tie rod u or other tension member. I prefer two holes 8 which are only visible in Fig. 4 but the part of 1 through which they pass is shown in Fig. 3 where Z and r are partly broken from View. This part of 7 also furnishes a bearing surface for either a nut or a rod clamp secured to a tie rod disposed longitudinally of Z and through one of the holes .9 and as illustrated in Fig. 3 at the end of L which is secured to the rod u. In Figs. 3 and 10, a is a corner stringer adapted to be spliced to the end of a stringer Y and secured to a support at the inside corner of a mold. Stringer a has a plate I? attached at its end. Both parts a and t are channel shaped and are shown riveted together. The part If furnishes a bearing surface for the nut on d. It also has holes for admitting tie rods disposed transversely of it. The rods u and u are disposed in such holes. The rods u and u are disposed in corresponding holes through both a and t. The holes through a and 2, through which 16 and u are disposed are preferably slots extending longitudinally to allow for variation in the horizontal alinement of u and u. The positions of the rods u and a show that t(he poles must be near the upper side of It is desirable also to have similar holes disposed near the lower side of (a t) for use when (a t) is used in a position reversed to that shown. The tension of the rod 24 is shown transmitted to the line of stringers Z Y inside the corner, by the corner stringer a, the rod 14 and the clamp L on u. u is disposed substantially in horizontal alinement with this line of stringers on the opposite side of the wall from o. This is true because u and u are sufficiently close together transversely of their length to adapt u to transmit tension to said line of stringers and longitudinally of them.
The hook shape of one end of u is shown encircled by wire to prevent it bending open. For a similar purpose wire is shown tied around the rod u at its hook.
In Figs. 3 and 8, Z) is a channel shaped head longer than wide and adapted to engage slots in the stringers as shown. These 'bolts may remain permanently connected to the splice 6 and their nuts are only tightened or loosened as required. Before passing the heads of bolts 6 through the slots it they are turned parallel to the slots. The heads of e have holes through them. The flanges of the splice and the adjacent sides of the stringers have holes corresponding to the holes through the heads of e. N ails or pins 9 are shown disposed through all these corresponding holes and prevent the heads of e turning parallel to the slots H when .in engagement with the stringers. ire may be used instead of pins. The webs of the stringers at their ends are shown reinforced by plates 2' fastened inside the stringers by rivets The heads of these rivets f on the sides of the stringers adjacent the splice and appearing only in Fig. 3, do not collide with the splice 7) because holes sufficiently large to clear them pass through 6. The positions of these clearance holes in b are indicated in Fig. 8 by dotted circles around 7.
In Fig. '3 at the corner of the mold L is illustrated a means for molding iusugi and outside corners with minimum loss o mold material and minimum labor. it permits using the same ribs 20 and w and the same boards K and K repeatedly and on walls of different thicknesses and different lengths and in combination with the entire mold shown herein.
In the plates shown at the outside faces of the corner of the mold many of the boards K may remain permanently nailed to 'w and 10. To vary the width of these outside plates, it is only necessary to add or remove boards at the edges'of the plates which are toward or at the corner of the mold space where the board K is shown. The ribs w, w and r0 are disposed substantially horizontial. The rice to and w" have surplus length extending beyond the corner of the mold and beyond 0. Above and below each rib 10, w and Q02 are other ribs like it and not appearing in the figure. The boards K are each disposed vertically. The inside corner plate has at one face of the corner a vertically extending timber m which is preferably secured to each rib by a lag screw w. esides providing a part ofthe mold space, 0 also acts as a stud and receives the lateral strain of the ribs 10 it thus prevents each rib 10 concentrating its pressure against the lateral side R of the adjacent regular stud. This is advantageous because the adjacent regular stud is not adapted to receive great pressures laterally at any point except near the levels of the stringers which hold the regular stud in position.
The ribs w and 10 are connected by tie rodsV and rod clamps 0 and p which are adjustible on V at different distances from the mold space. The ribs w and 'w where they extend beyond the outside corner of the mold space are held in position by the upr1ght metal stay o winch is nisposed outwardly of them from the corner of the mold space. This stay 41 is shown sec red to strin ers Z and Y b tie rods a and i. J
together with rodclainps p and L which adapt the rods to hold the stay c in different positions relative horizontally to the nearest supports. At its lert end the rod 1& is hook shaped with the short side of the hook uppermost as indicated by dotted lines. T he upper side of the hook is disoosed through the upper hole 8 shown in *ig. i and the lower side or main part of the rod is dis posed through the lower hole 8 shown in 4-. The ribs to of the plate on one face of the corner, are shown extending from points near the lateral side ll of one of the regular studs. bl ear this stud the ribs to are shown held in position byan upright metal stay 4) held in position by the tie rod a and another like u out of view below it. The clamp L on a adapts it to hold 0 at different distances from the mold space.
Fig. 5 is a sectional view through a flanged bar M of special shape and having a flange which extends between a lateral side R of the support and the adjacent end of K. K is one of a plurality of plates in the form of boards disposed in a similar manner to K of Fig. 1, but not fastened together in the form of large plates or panels. Each bar like M is adapted to hold the ends of a plurality of boards K in position distributed longitudinally of it. The molding face of K is shown having a recess. Part of the recess acts as a seat bearing against a flange F of the support. M is held in position as shown by the lock (P engaging the support. Instead of boards I it is advantageous in some work to use sheet metal plates and secure them in position in the same manner by M. An improved plate for this purpose is shown in Figs. 11 and 12. M is also shown adjusted to it in Fig. 12. The plate comprises a sheet metal channel (2 .2). its web .2 provides the face for disposition adjacent the mold space. Its sides 2 extend outwardly of the mold space and preferably have flanges e at a substantial distance therefrom. The web 2 forms nearly all the molding face of the plate but is cut away at each end of the plate to form a recess in the molding face. A slight portion of each side 2 is also shown cut away at its end to correspond with the depth of the recess. The surface within the recess is shown disposed against a flange F in the same manner as the surface within the recess in K in Fig. 5. -The recess permits the molding faces of both plate and support being in substantially the same plane and forming a more uniform surface on the concrete. The sides 2 of the channel extend beyond the end of the web a and, at the corners of the plate are bent so that they form laps .2 which are shown as forming part of the end surface ofthe plate. These laps are preferably fastened to 2 by welding but they could be riveted to it. The end piece 2* is an angular shaped piece of sheet metal extending between the sides 2 of the channel and between the web 2 and the laps .2 lVithin the said recess, 2 forms the surface which is disposed against the flange of the support. The flanged bar M and the flange F of the support, are not shown in Fig. 11.
Any suitable rod clamps or nuts may be used on any of the tie rods in any construction shown in this application and in place of any of the rod clamps shown herein. In Fig. 8, 0 and p are rod clamps which present a flat end to the surface which bears against them. They are therefore more suitable for use against wood members like the ribs to and 202. They have screws adapted to press against opposite sides of a rod. In 0 each screw is not directly opposite another. In 39 each screw is directly opposite another. This clamp 19 has more pairs of screws like that shown but they are masked from view by Y. Any of the rods V or V may be used with a rod clamp at only one end. In such case there could be threads on the other end of the rod for only a short distance and a nut thereon. Any long variation could be accommodated by the rod clamp and tension could be applied by a few turns of the nut. Instead of being hook shaped at one end, 20 could be secured to Z in the same manner that u is secured to the other Z shown. At the other end of a p could be replaced by a few threads and a nut thereon. In a similar manner 'zficould be secured to o by a nut. 24- could also be secured to an end stringer like Z in the same manner shown for a. In such case Y at the right of Fig. 3 would be moved to a greater distance from 1 and an end stringer like Z spliced to its end for connecting with 16 In similar manner the hook end of u could be straight and threaded a short distance and a nut thereon hearing against (a 6).
Any of the tie rods .7, V, a, a or u may be replaced by other suitable tension members which are adjustable for holding parts of the mold at different distances apart or at different distances from the mold space. Wire is a satisfactory tension memher for this purpose and may be tightened by suitable wire clamps in common use by builders. lVithout wire clamps two lengths ofwire may be twisted together by a stick in the manner of a tourniquet which has also been a common practice among builders.
