  • Publication number: 20130040013
    Abstract: A mold (for producing molded blocks with at least one lateral face which has a texture, wherein the mold comprises at least one flexible belt, wherein the flexible belt surrounds at least one mold wall of the mold lower part that delimits the mold cavity in order to act on the material for producing the molded block that is received in the mold cavity, and in order in so doing to impress a texture on at least one of the lateral faces of the molded block, wherein the flexible belt can be moved relative to the mold lower part and wherein the flexible belt is mounted in such a way that it moves around the mold wall when the molded block is ejected from the mold cavity. Here, the mold comprises an active auxiliary device by means of which a rolling resistance of the flexible belt can be varied.

  • Patent number: 7290752
    Abstract: The invention relates to a mold for the production of molded parts on a jolting table, the mold having a mold frame which carries a mold insert in which recesses defining the molded parts are formed, the mold insert being surrounded by a clearance space toward the mold frame, this clearance space being at least partly filled with damping means which keeps the mold frame and mold insert at a distance apart in a non-contact manner. In this case, at least one locking element passes through the clearance space, the locking element being mounted with play in at least one of the mold frame and mold insert.

  • Patent number: 7014161
    Abstract: A mold for producing concrete articles having a mold bottom part that includes a molded chamber block having a substantially uniform thickness and side parts attached to the molding chamber block by fasteners. The molding chamber block has molding chambers located in an inner region and cutouts located on an edge region. The cutouts form intermediate webs of approximately uniform width, and at least a portion of the cutouts are undercut slots having lateral openings. The fasteners attach the side parts to the molding chamber block via the undercut slots of the cutouts.

  • Patent number: 6093012
    Abstract: A description is given of a mold for manufacturing concrete moldings, e.g. paving setts, large-volume blocks and large-format, thin panels, having a bottom mold part which comprises the mold chamber(s) and having a top mold part with a load plate and the die or the dies. The bottom die parts (47) which come into contact with the concrete in each case are guided so as to be movable in the vertical direction, with respect to the top mold part, in a displacement range defined by stops (46, 51, 53) and are exposed to the action of a pressure medium, e.g. a bellows (40) activated by compressed air. The manufacturing process claimed works with two successive fillings. After the first filling pre-compaction is carried out at a relatively high pressure, and after the second filling secondary compaction is carried out at reduced pressure, the reduced pressure resulting in desired striking of the movable die part against the other die in the same rhythm as the vibrations.

  • Patent number: 5643616
    Abstract: Concrete-molding machine having a ram on which an upper mold part is fastened in a releasable manner. The quick-fastening device used for this purpose comprises connecting pins which have a shank and a widened cross-piece. In order to simplify the device, the connecting pins are fastened on the upper mold part by means of their shanks. Located on the ram or on a carrying plate fixedly connected thereto is a horizontal slide with keyhole-like clearances into which the connecting pins can be inserted from beneath. Pneumatic lifting elements grip below the slide and draw it up, in the connecting position, to the cross-pieces.

  • Patent number: 5612065
    Abstract: An arrangement for producing a molded concrete article which has a surface including zones at varying levels. The arrangement includes three groups of punches defining respective impression depths into the concrete article, and a molding device including three head plates, each of which is connected to a corresponding one of the groups of punches. An upper head plate is connected to a group of punches having a deepest impression depth. A lower head plate disposed below the upper head plate is connected to a group of punches having a shallowest impression depth.

  • Patent number: 5589087
    Abstract: The process described serves for producing a steel mold for concrete paving setts with so-called spacers, the individual mold chambers being cut out of a steel plate by flame cutting. Grooves are formed in the mold walls by means of the flame-cutting jet, by way of an arcuate movement of the same, the grooves defining the cross section of the spacers. The upper section of the grooves is filled in that closure platelets, of which the cross section corresponds approximately to the cross section of the groove and which exhibit welding projections on their side directed towards the groove, are welded into the groove by projection welding. The closure platelets consist of a strain-hardened unalloyed or low-alloyed steel.
