  • Patent number: 10100538
    Abstract: The invention concerns a deck (1) for forming an accessible area in a shoring tower (26), which can be used for fabrication or reconstruction of buildings, with a lifting lock (2) for avoiding take off of the deck (1) from an intended insertion position, preferably with two insertion hooks (2) each on both front sides, characterized in that the lifting lock (2) can also at a resting deck (1) switch from a detached position into a locked position only by force of gravity and/or the lifting lock (2) can switch from the locked position into the detached position by lifting the deck (1) through engaging at the lifting lock (2). Furthermore, a further developed system comprising a separate lifting and holding tool and a deck as well as a further developed shoring tower are disclosed. A very easy and safe assembly and disassembly can thereby be achieved.

  • Patent number: 9909327
    Abstract: According to the invention a wall formwork (1, 2) for the production walls consisting of concrete having a coupling device (4, 10), by means of which the wall formwork (1, 2) may be coupled to another wall formwork which is arranged adjacent or above is provided. The coupling device (4, 10) is—preferably detachably—coupled to the wall formwork (1, 2) and is especially coupled to a supporting element (2) of the wall formwork (1, 2). By “coupled” it is meant that the coupling device (4, 10) may even kept coupled to the wall formwork (1, 2) when the coupling device (4, 10) will not be used for coupling the wall formwork (1, 2) to another wall formwork. By way of coupling between the coupling device (4, 10) and the wall formwork (1, 2), during installation, a coupling device (4, 10) will immediately be available, if the wall formwork (1, 2) is to be coupled to another wall formwork by the coupling device (4, 10). By this, assembling will be promoted.

  • Patent number: 9677290
    Abstract: The invention relates to an anchoring system for a wall formwork as well as to a method for suspending the anchoring system on the rear side of a wall formwork while dismantling a wall formwork. In order to accelerate a dismantling process, an anchoring system with an anchoring rod (4) and at least one disengageable locking device is provided. The part of the anchoring system that is pulled out of wall formworks after a concrete wall has been produced comprises a suspension means for suspending on a wall formwork the part of the anchoring system that has been pulled out.

  • Patent number: 9637938
    Abstract: The invention relates to an anchoring system for a wall formwork and to a method for an assembly of the anchoring system: • the two wall formworks (1, 2, 3, 40) are set up opposite from each other, • an anchoring rod (4) with a graduation (21) is pushed through anchoring rod bores of the two wall formworks (1, 2, 3, 40) in such a way that the end of the anchoring rod (4) that has not been pushed through has the graduation (21), • the pushed-through end of the anchoring rod (4) is connected to a locking device (41) present on the rear side of the one formwork (40), • the end of the anchoring rod (4) that has not been pushed through is connected to the locking device (5, 6, 7, 8, 13, 14, 15) provided here in such a manner that this connection is aligned with the selected graduation, • the locking device aligned with the graduation is connected to the adjacent wall formwork (1, 2, 3).

  • Patent number: 9580922
    Abstract: The invention relates to a locking device for an anchor rod which may be mounted to a wall formwork. Moreover the invention relates to an associated wall formwork as well as process for mounting the locking device to the wall formwork. Moreover the invention relates to a system having a locking device and wall formwork. A locking device having a locking means for mounting the locking device to one end of an anchor rod and a mounting device for mounting the locking device to a wall formwork is provided. The mounting device comprises a screw which is tilted such that it may be secured in a hole of a supporting element of a wall formwork. A wall formwork thus advantageously does not require a thread in order to be able to mount the locking device to a wall formwork.

  • Patent number: 9487961
    Abstract: The invention relates to a connecting device for formwork boards having a formwork lining and elements supporting the formwork lining for producing concrete structures, wherein the connecting device comprises two claws and a clamping means, particularly a wedge or a clamping screw, in order to move the two claws towards one another for connection of two formwork boards, in such a manner that the supporting elements of two formwork boards are held in the desired position. The connecting device is characterized by a pivotable claw, which is formed such that the pivotable claw can be pivoted between a starting position and a final position, particularly about a shaft of the connecting device. This permits particularly simple assembly of the formwork boards to form a formwork and/or disassembly of a formwork.

  • Publication number: 20150267421
    Abstract: The invention relates to a wall formwork (1) for concrete structures, comprising a basic body (12), an outer face configured as a formwork facing (19), and anchor holes (5) for the detachable connection to other wall formworks. It is proposed that the anchor holes (5) be disposed with a substantially uniform grid spacing (4) relative to each other, and to dimension the wall formwork (1) in such a way that the spacing (4) of the anchor holes (5) to the outer vertical (7) and/or horizontal (6) boundary of the wall formwork (1) corresponds to no more than half of the grid spacing (4), preferably substantially half of the grid spacing (4).

  • Publication number: 20150252577
    Abstract: A wall formwork with a sealing system, in particular for closing an anchor hole of the wall formwork or for sealing an anchor rod in an anchor hole of the wall formwork, which comprises an anchor seal and a closure cap, and which is made in such a way that the anchor seal and the closure cap can be detachably connected to the anchor hole or an adapter providing the anchor hole. By means of the invention, it can be made possible that one or more anchor seals and closure caps of the sealing system can be particularly easily removed from the wall formwork and re-used, and that a particularly small maintenance expenditure for the wall formwork can be achieved.

  • Publication number: 20150206040
    Abstract: The invention relates to a transportable device with a transponder of an RFID system which draws its energy via the associated reading device. The transponder is disposed in a depression consisting of metal. The invention particularly relates to a transportable device used in storage facilities and on construction sites in connection with the erection of buildings, such as, for example, a formwork element, a transport container or a transport device for components such as anchoring rods or locking devices or other formwork element accessories. A slit extends along the depression in order thus to make long read-out ranges for the transponder possible.
