Abstract
The present patent relates to a kind of movable form, sliding forms (02) for molding concrete towers of a large variety of shapes, in particular in wind farms, communication towers, the forms moving vertically from the beginning to the end of the construction, in a semi-automated or automated system for uninterrupted and continuous construction of the tower. The movable/sliding form (02) is vertically moved in that a sliding cover (08) with upper and lower rollers (06) is used, as well as a honed metal plate (07) forming the body, connected to a kind of fork (03) which maintains the thickness of the concrete wall, together with cables and ties joined to the metal tower (01), which by being moved by a rack-and-pinion system make it possible to build the tower.
Claims2
Movable forms for erecting concrete towers to be predominantly used in the construction of concrete towers, quadrilateral, conical, and other shapes, in the production of wind power and communication, wherein a set composed of fork spacers 03, which defines the wall thickness of the tower/pillar, etc. where it is assembled either on the front or on the back sliding movable forms 02, which move vertically from the beginning to the end of the construction site, are employed as molds in the tower concrete filling process, either in semi or automated systems, for the uninterrupted and continuous construction of the tower;
- the fork spacers 03 are installed in a metal building tower 01 along its entire periphery, so that its movement causes the vertical and synchronized displacement of the entire set of fork spacers 03 with their respective forms 02;
- in the concrete filling process, transposing the previous and next sliding movable forms 02 so as not to allow the drainage of the concrete mass, the passthrough retaining plates 04 are located.
