  • Patent number: 3969035
    Abstract: A slip form paving machine for forming curbs, gutters, barriers and other structures in a continuous process. The machine is mounted on three steerable and individually powered wheels. The wheels are mounted on parallel linkages so that the frame can be raised and lowered relative to the wheels without changing the orientation of the steering axis, to permit and insure precise control. A wide variety of paving forms of different heights and widths can be used without modifying the machine. The engine and other heavy components are located in relation to the wheel mounting so that the frame is balanced and stable with the three wheel support. The operational components of the machine including a loading conveyor are stored within a standard frame width so that the unit can be transported over the road without special permits.
