Clamp device for side wall beams
A clamp unit is for interconnecting side wall beams of a concrete casting mold. The side wall beams incorporate protruding upper and lower edges. The clamp unit ( 1 ) includes at least two end portions ( 2,3 ) connected to each other and members ( 4,5,6 ) for adjusting the distance between the end portions. The end portions are advantageously connected to each other so that a spring-force is provided for moving the end portions farther or closer to each other.
1. A clamp for interconnecting side wall beams of a concrete casting mold, the side wall beams incorporating protruding upper and lower edges, wherein said clamp comprising:
at least two end portions connected to each other; and
means for adjusting the distance between said end portions, wherein the at least two end portions releasable lock into a space between the upper and lower edges,
wherein said clamp unit end portions are adapted means or at least part of said means for adjusting distance between said end portions, and
wherein said means for adjusting distance comprise a wedge-like member and a screw thread.
2. The clamp unit according to claim 1 , wherein said clamp unit end portions are joined to each other so that a spring-force is effected for moving the end portions of the said clamp unit closer to or farther away from each other.
3. A clamp unit for interconnecting side wall beams of a concrete casting mold, the side wall beams incorporating protruding upper and lower edges, wherein said clamp unit comprising:
at least two end portions connected to each other; and
means for adjusting the distance between said end portions, wherein the at least two end portions releasable lock into a space between the upper and lower edges,
wherein said clamp unit end portions are adapted means or at least part of said means for adjusting distance between said end portions, and
wherein means for adjusting distance comprise an eccentric cam mechanism and wedge-like member.
4. The clamp unit according to claim 1 , comprising means for retaining the distance between the end portions as adjusted.
5. The clamp unit according to claim 2 , wherein said clamp unit end portions are adapted means or at least part of said means for adjusting distance between said end portions.
6. The clamp unit according to claim 2 , comprising means for retaining the distance between the end portions as adjusted.
7. The clamp unit according to claim 3 , comprising means for retaining the distance between the end portions as adjusted.
8. The clamp unit according to claim 4 , comprising means for retaining the distance between the end portions as adjusted.
9. The clamp unit according to claim 5 , comprising means for retaining the distance between the end portions as adjusted.
10. The clamp unit according to claim 3 , wherein said clamp unit end portions are joined to each other so that a spring-force is effected for moving the end portions of the said clamp unit closer to or farther away from each other.
