Prefabricated pool
View Patent ↗A prefabricated concrete pool including concrete walls and a pan-formed concrete floor, as well as a method of fabricating a prefabricated swimming pool, the method including erecting an external wall form, erecting an internal wall form opposing the external wall form, and positioning pan forms on a floor form.
1. A prefabricated concrete pool comprising a formwork ( 28 ) comprising:
a floor form ( 25 ), for pouring a layer of liquidized concrete thereon, for forming a concrete floor ( 27 );
a peripheral external wall form ( 26 ), disposed on said floor form ( 25 ), for limiting a size of said concrete floor ( 27 );
a peripheral internal wall form ( 24 ), disposed above said floor form ( 25 ) and near said peripheral external wall form ( 26 ), for pouring liquidized concrete between said external ( 26 ) and internal ( 24 ) wall forms, for forming a peripheral concrete wall ( 40 ) therebetween; and
anchoring ties ( 31 ), each threaded through said internal wall form ( 24 ) and said external wall form ( 26 ), for anchoring said internal wall form ( 24 ) to said external wall form ( 26 ), for applying said disposition of said peripheral internal wall form ( 24 ) above said floor form ( 25 ),
thereby said liquidized concrete poured between said peripheral wall forms ( 24 , 26 ), and said liquidized poured concrete layer attach one another while being liquidized,
wherein said forms ( 25 , 26 , 24 ) are not fixed to a ground,
thereby said concrete floor ( 27 ) and said peripheral concrete wall ( 40 ) are transportable.
2. A prefabricated concrete pool according to claim 1 wherein the concrete of at least one of said peripheral concrete wall ( 40 ) and of said concrete floor ( 27 ) comprises fiber strands, thereby increasing flexibility.
3. A prefabricated concrete pool according to claim 1 , further comprising:
non-concrete plates ( 42 ), disposed on said floor form ( 25 ) for pouring said concrete layer thereon for reducing thickness thereof for reducing weight thereof, thereby concrete disposed on said floor form ( 25 ) between said non-concrete plates ( 42 ) comprise structural beams ( 45 ) of said concrete floor being on an underside of said concrete floor.
4. A prefabricated concrete pool according to claim 1 wherein said anchoring ties ( 31 ) are leak proof.
5. A prefabricated concrete pool according to claim 4 wherein said anchoring ties comprises a gasket.
6. A prefabricated concrete pool according to claim 1 , further comprising grasps for hoisting the prefabricated concrete pool with a hoisting machine.
7. A prefabricated concrete pool according to claim 1 further comprising grasps for anchoring the prefabricated concrete pool to a site.
8. A prefabricated concrete pool according to claim 1 comprising a swimming pool.
