  • Patent number: 9233795
    Abstract: A chute for use in pouring concrete into a wall form includes a floor with front, rear and side edges; sides connected to the floor along each of the side edges and projecting upward from the floor; a first flange connected to the floor along the front edge and projecting downward therefrom; and a second flange connected to the floor and projecting downward therefrom. The flanges are substantially parallel and spaced apart by a distance greater than a thickness of a wall form panel; accordingly, placing the chute on top of the wall form panel with the flanges respectively interior and exterior to the wall form securely aligns the chute with the wall form panel. The flanges project downward at approximately a 45° angle. Concrete deposited into the chute is funneled toward the front, and flows off the front edge into the wall form.
