  • Concrete product molding machines and methods of making and operating the machines
    Publication number: 20030160347
    Abstract: A concrete product molding machine supports a vibratable mold having an open top and an open bottom. A stripper head is movable from a position above the mold to an intermediate position ready to strip the molded product from the mold and then on to a lower position in which it has. A pallet receiver is movable from a lower position to a mold closing position in which a pallet it carries closes the bottom of the mold. Disengageable linking mechanism is provided for coupling the striper head and pallet receiver frame for conjoint travel in movement of the stripper head through the mold. A connector assembly connects with a pallet receiver lift arm and incorporates an actuator for varying the position of the upper end of the lift arm and thereby varying the vertical position of the pallet receiver.
    Type: Application
