Abstract: A machine for laying concrete paths of the type in which a concrete mix in the plastic state is spread over a certain width and is then levelled to a certain height, in which a levelling element comprises at least two largely horizontal plates which are positioned at least partially laterally next to one another, viewed in the direction of movement of the machine, and which can be displaced in the lateral direction relative to one another for adjusting the working width of the machine, and in which the first plate bears with its lower face against the upper face of the second plate.

Abstract: A machine for paving concrete paths, of the type in which a concrete mix, in a plastic condition, is spread over a certain width, and is then levelled to a certain height. The machine includes a tractor and a levelling section connected to it, wherein the working width of the tractor and levelling section are adjustable and wherein the adjustment of the working width of the tractor is independent of the adjustment of the working width of the levelling section. The tractor is provided with an element whose width is adjustable and which distributes the concrete mix over a certain width and to a certain height.

Abstract: An insertion device configured for connecting to a frame of a concrete paving machine. The insertion device including a housing, a guide tube extending from the housing, and an ejection device positioned in the housing and cooperating with the guide tube to individually eject dowels stored by the housing through the guide tube. According to one embodiment, the housing includes an alignment system for aligning the dowels in the housing in a predetermined orientation. In another embodiment, the housing has a parting feature that extends along a forward external side of the housing. In yet another embodiment, the guide tube includes a resilient element provided at an outlet portion that is arranged to seal the outlet portion of the guide tube.

Abstract: A paving machine having a dowel bar insertion assembly and a form piece permit precise placement of at least one dowel bar, in a mass of concrete, before smoothing and leveling of the concrete mass into a desired surface. A detection device activates a drive device to eject the dowel bars into the concrete mass at a desired interval.

Abstract: A method for forming a concrete path or the like, which concrete path is provided with dowels, whereby unhardened concrete, by means of at least one form piece moving over the concrete, is brought into the shape of the concrete path to be realized, wherein said dowels are brought into the concrete in front of and/or at the height of the form piece, more particularly before and/or at the moment that the concrete surrounding the dowels, by means of said form piece, is forced into the shape of the concrete path to be realized.
