CONCRETE BLOCK Momma MACHINE Filed Feb. 20, 1950 2 SI-IEETSSHEET 2 3nventor Patented Apr. 29, 1952 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,595,066 CONCRETE BLOCK MOLDING MACHINE Lester T. Ferrln, Tonasket, Wash. Application February 20, 1950, Serial No; 145,130 Claims. (CI. 25-88) This invention relates to a block-forming apparatus and it is one object to provide an apparatus by means of which concrete blocks used for building outdoor fire places and other structures may be formed.
Another object of the invention is to provide a block-forming apparatus including a box or mould in which concrete is poured and allowed to set and harden, means being provided for vibrating the mould and thus cause air bubbles to rise and pass ofi from the block forming material and eliminate weak places in blocks formed by the improved apparatus.
Another object of the invention is to provide a block-forming apparatus wherein the mould or box has a stationary rear side wall and front side wall which is hinged along its lower edge for vertical swinging movement to a raised position, the front wall being held in its raised position by hooks carried by the rear wall and extending across end walls of the mold so that they serve to hold the end walls in a closed position as well as holding the front wall raised.
Another object of the invention is to provide the apparatus with a pressure applying bar which is movable into and out of position to rest upon an upper form placed in the mold or box and then movable downwardly to a pressure applying position.
Another object of the invention is to provide a block-forming apparatus wherein the means for creating vibration is mounted upon a shelf suspended from the bottom of the mold or box in which the blocks are formed.
Another object of the invention is to so form the mold that bottom and top forms may be easily fitted into and removed from the mold and the walls of the mold thoroughly cleaned after a block has been removed from the mould.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying' drawings wherein:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the improved block-forming apparatus. N
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view taken transverse'ly through the mouldv along the line 2-2 of Figure 1. V v
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view taken vertically through the block-forming apparatus.
Fig. 4 is a perspective view or an end portion of the bottom form used when forming a fire place black. v
Fig. 5 is a perspective view or an end portion of a fire place block formed with the improved block-forming apparatus.
The improved block forming apparatus con- 2. stituting the subject matter of this; invention has a frame I which is formed of metal bars or strips and may be of any desired length and height. The frame has end standards 2 formed of angle metal bars which are bent to provide each standard with a bridge 3 and legs 4 extending down wardly therefrom with their lower ends welded, or otherwise secured, to ground-engaging cross bars or feet 5, which are also formed otangle metal. Bracing bars 6 extend horizontally between the legs 4 to prevent spreading transversely of the frame and in order to prevent the end standards from spreading longitudinally of the frame there have been provided diagonally extending bracing bars I. g V
A mould or box 8 issupported upon the standards 2 and has a bottom 9 formed from a wide metal bar having depending flanges l0 along its opposite side edges, and from an inspection of Figures 2 and 3 it will be seen that end portions of the flanges rest upon the bridge portions 3 of the standards. Arear wall ll extends upwardly along one side edge of the bottom to which it is welded, and a front wall [2 has its lower edge portion connected with the rear edge of the bottom by hinges l4 so that it may be swung from a raised position outwardly and downwardly to a lowered position. An end wall l5 normally closes one end of the mould and is connected with the rear wall by a hinge [6 so that it may be swung outwardly to an opened position. This end wall is held closed by a hook I1 carried by an eye [8 projecting from the inner surface of the rear side wall, and upon referring to Figure 1 it will be seen that the hook extends across the outer face of the end wall where it is engaged with an eye [9 carried by the front side Wall. Therefore the hook serves to secure the front side wall and also the end wall. A similar hook may beprovided fortheother end of the mold. Within the mold is disposed a second end wall 20 which has its lower end resting upon the bottom instead of being spaced upwardly from the bottom, as is the end wall l5. This end wall 20 is shiftable longitudinally of the mold or box 8 and upon its upper edge is mounted a bar 22. This bar has its end portions projecting from opposite side edges of the wall 29 and bent to form ears 23 of such length that they extend across the upper outstanding flanges of angle metal strips 24 mounted along upper edges of the front and rear side walls. Outer ends of the ears are bent downwardly to form lips 25 which engage outer side edges of the flanges 24 and prevent the side walls from moving out of on gagement with opposite side edges of the end wall 20. Longitudinally spaced openings 26 are formed through the flanges 24 to receive pins 21 projecting downwardly from the ears 23 and correspondingly spaced openings 28 are formed through the bottom to receive pins 29 carried by and projecting downwardly from the wall 20. It will thus be seen that the wall may be shifted longitudinally of the mold and firmly held in a predetermined spaced relation to the end wall l5 and thus allow a block of desired length to be formed.
When the block-forming apparatus is in use a. bottom form 30 of a desired length is set at rest upon the bottom 9 of the mould or box 8 and concrete poured into the mould until the mould is filled to the depth shown in Figure 3. A top form 3| is fitted into the mould and rests upon the concrete. In the illustration the top and bottom forms have side recesses 32 in which are fitted blocks 33 so that concrete blocks 34 will be formed with recesses 35 near their ends but it will be understood that top and bottom forms of other shapes may be used for forming concrete blocks of other specific shapes. The blocks illus- 'trated are particularly adapted for building outdoor fire places and when so used will have their end portions interlocked to hold the blocks firmly together and form walls and a chimney for the fire place.
are formed of angle metal, and to these cross bars are welded arms 38 which extend downwardly therefrom along opposite ends of the mould and the frame and in spaced relation to their lower ends are pivoted to upper ends of links 38 extending upwardly from crank arms 40 to which they are pivotally connected. These crank arms are carried by ends of a shaft 4i which extends longitudinally of the frame l and is rotatably mounted through bearings 42 carried .by the cross bars 6 of the standards 2 and at one end carries an upwardly projecting operating lever 43. Weights 44 at lower ends of the arms 38 normally hold the arms in a vertical position with the pressure bar disposed over the mould midway the width thereof but allow the arms to be swung to the position shown in Figure 1 where it will be out of the way when filling the mould or removing a formed block from the mould. When the shaft is turned to a position in which the crank arms project upwardly from it the pressure bar will be held in the raised position indicated by dotted lines in Figure 3 and when the shaft is turned in a direction to swing the crank arms downwardly the pressure bar will be drawn downwardly into pressing engagement with the top form and concrete in the mould will "be subjected to pressure which will cause it to completely fill all portions of the mould or box between the top and bottom forms.
In order to form a solid block of concrete air bubbles in the freshly poured concrete should be eliminated. This is accomplished by vibration which serves to shake the concrete and thus cause bubbles to move upwardly and pass from the concrete. Vibration is accomplished by mechanism suspended from the mold or box. This 4 the mould there has been provided a shelf 45 consisting of hangers 46 formed of angle metal and having their upper ends welded to the bottom 9 of the mould and their lower ends connected with corner portions of a platform of plate 41. Upon the platform of the shelf is mounted an electric motor 48 carrying a pulley 49 and about this pulley is trained a belt 50 which extends upwardly therefrom and has its upper portion trained about a pulley wheel 5| carried by a shaft 52. This shaft extends longitudinally of the shelf and the mould and is rotatably mounted in bearings 53 carried by cross bars 54 mounted between hangers at opposite sides of the mechanism is shown in Figures 1 and 3 and refer-.
ring to these figures it will be seen that under ends of the shelf. The pulley 5| is larger than the pulley 49 so that the shaft 52 will turn at a slower speed than the shaft of the motor and upon the shaft 52 is mounted an off-balance weight 55 which swings about the shaft durin rotation of the shaft and creates vibration which is imparted to the shelf and the mould or box and very effectively causes air bubbles in the concrete to move upwardly and pass off through the upper surface of the soft concrete. A very solid concrete block will thus be formed when the concrete has set and hardened.
