  • Patent number: 10967490
    Abstract: A tool for removing, from a set concrete wall, a concrete form of a type having a discontinuous structure is provided. The tool comprises a lever arm, comprising an engagement portion and a grasping portion. The engagement portion is positioned near one end of the lever arm, and the grasping portion is positioned near an opposite end of the lever arm. An engagement member is secured to the engagement portion. The engagement member is configured to engage the discontinuous structure. A pivoting member is mounted on the lever arm proximate the engagement portion. The pivoting member defines a pivot point around which the lever arm may rotate, whereby the engagement member will apply force to the discontinuous structure tending to pull the concrete form away from the set concrete wall when the engagement portion of the lever arm is pulled away from the set concrete wall when the engagement member is in engagement with the discontinuous structure.
