Abstract: A vibrating device for surfacing concrete comprising a surfacing blade, a vibration-causing assembly in communication with the surfacing blade and an actuator in communication with the vibration-causing assembly for imparting a vibratory motion to the blade. The vibration-causing assembly comprises a shaft assembly and a bearing assembly in communication with said shaft assembly. The bearing-assembly provides for substantially avoiding undesired movement of said blade during the vibratory motion.
Abstract: A vibrating device for surfacing concrete comprising a surfacing blade, a vibration-causing assembly in communication with the surfacing blade and an actuator in communication with the vibration-causing assembly so as to cause the vibration-causing assembly to impart a vibratory motion to the blade. A seal member is mounted about the junction between the actuator and the vibration-causing assembly. The said seal member seals the junction from concrete during surfacing.
Abstract: A vibrating device for surfacing concrete comprising a surfacing blade, a vibration-causing assembly in communication with the blade, an actuator in communication with the vibration-causing assembly so as to impart vibratory motion to said blade and a steering assembly in communication with surfacing blade. The steering assembly comprising a handle assembly. The handle assembly comprising at least one arm in communication with the blade. This at least one arm is so adjustable as to vary the length thereof.
