Abstract
A mold for concrete test cubes of plastic-like material having a vertically extending enclosure and, about midway, radially projecting impact ledges and at the top of the enclosure vertical spacers in the form of legs or extensions of wall panels.
Claims6
A mold for concrete test cubes, comprising:
- a vertically extending wall defining a tubular enclosure,
- a flange-like first impact projection extending angularly from the enclosure on the outside thereof and located spaced from the bottom of the enclosure, said flange-like projection constituting the only substantial projection beyond the enclosure between the top and bottom thereof, the first projection forming an impact surface when said enclosure is tilted from a vertical to a substantially horizontal position;
- at least three vertically extending second impact projections formed on the top end of the enclosure, said second projections being relatively small and effective to permit a multidirectional planar smoothing of substantially the whole upper surface of the concrete test cube prior to solidification;
- and a bottom panel secured to the bottom of the enclosure and having an opening provided therein;
- said panel and said enclosure being formed of plastic or plastic-like material as an integrally connected single piece construction.
2 more elements
A mold according to clain 1, wherein said first projection is a substantially continuous and peripherally extending strip extending around the enclosure about vertically midway.
