Abstract
A device and method for residual concrete collection for disposal or reclamation of same, wherein a bag is formed, generally prismatic in structure, with a rectangular opening in the top. Suspension straps serve to attach the bag and support it below the outflow of concrete mixing or delivery equipment such that concrete and/or water will flow into the device, wherein water will subsequently pass therethrough. The device and collected concrete can then be moved and/or stored for disposal or reclamation of the concrete.
Claims109
A device for collection of concrete-like materials from a storage reservoir or material distribution means, said collection device comprising:
- a collapsible container adapted to be received proximate the material reservoir or distribution means;
- and,
- means adapted for at least partially supporting a portion of said container,
- whereby said container may receive the materials therewithin.
A device for collection of concrete-like materials from a storage reservoir or material distribution means, said collection device comprising:
- a collapsible container adapted to be received proximate the material reservoir or distribution means;
- and,
- means adapted for at least partially supporting a portion of said container by the material reservoir or distribution means.
A device for collection of concrete-like materials from a storage reservoir or material distribution means, said collection device comprising:
- a collapsible container adapted to be received proximate the material reservoir or distribution means;
- and,
- means adapted for at least partially supporting an upper portion of said container for receipt of the materials therewithin.
A device for collection of concrete-like materials comprising:
- bag section, having top, bottom and at least one side;
- support loops;
- and
- inflatable section carried by said at least one side proximate said bottom.
A method for collection of concrete-like materials comprising the steps of:
- a. providing a source of concrete to be collected;
- b. providing at least one collapsible container for containing concrete to be collected;
- c. providing an opening in said at least one collapsible container to permit flow of concrete to be collected;
- d. providing means for supporting said at least one collapsible container under the source of concrete to be collected;
- e. expanding said at least one collapsible container;
- f. at least partially supporting said at least one collapsible container from the source of concrete to be collected;
- and,
- g. flowing the concrete to be collected into said at least one collapsible container through said opening.
A method of collecting concrete-like materials comprising the steps of:
- obtaining at least one collapsible container;
- expanding said at least one collapsible container;
- placing said at least one collapsible container to receive discharge from a concrete-like material source;
- attaching at least one collapsible container to a support point;
- and
- discharging concrete-like materials into said at least one collapsible container.
A method for collecting concrete-like materials comprising the steps of:
- obtaining at least one collapsible container, wherein said collapsible container comprises at least one inflatable section;
- placing said at least one collapsible container under a source of concrete-like material;
- inflating said at least one inflatable section;
- and
- discharging concrete-like material into said at least one collapsible container.
A device for collection of concrete-like materials from a storage reservoir or material distribution means, said collection device comprising:
- a water impermeable, collapsible container adapted to be received proximate the material reservoir or distribution means;
- and,
- means adapted for at least partially supporting a portion of said container,
- whereby said container may receive the materials therewithin.
