Definitions
- the invention relates to a method of mechanically laying paving or the like, in which bricks are taken simultaneously from a packet of bricks, in batches of at least one group at a time, and placed in a desired pattern as they are moved to a sub-grade; wherein two or more rows of bricks may be removed at a time from the upper layer of a stack of bricks positioned in a first pattern, the bricks of the group of bricks after being removed from the packet are first spaced a small distance apart, then moved into the desired basic pattern, thereafter moved towards each other again and subsequently put in their place on the sub-grade.
- a method of a kind mentioned above is characterized by engaging the bricks of these rows each individually and simultaneously, then putting them into the desired second pattern and placing them all at the same time directly onto the sub-grade in said second pattern. In this way it is possible to prepare paving with the bricks in so-called herringbone pattern.
- the invention further relates to an apparatus for carrying out the before described method, comprising a carriage equipped with suction-lift means comprising a frame equipped with at least one suction cup which is connected with a vacuum source, wherein the frame is equipped with a plurality of suction cups corresponding with the number of bricks to be placed simultaneously, which suction cups are movable in longitudinal and transverse direction.
- the apparatus is characterized in that the suction cups also in a rotary sense are in mutually coupled fashion.
- Swiss patent 348,919 describes a movable lifting and transporting apparatus by means of which bricks can be transported along the track of the transporting apparatus. To this effect, the apparatus comprises a plurality of juxtaposed suction heads. However, further similarities with the invention are lacking.
- German Offenlegungsschrift 2,918,232 shows and describes an apparatus for laying profiled concrete bricks.
- the bricks of each row can be displaced relatively to each adjacent row.
- the apparatus comprises a parallelogram- shaped pivotal lever system, thus creating the possibility of having the spacing apart and the movement into the desired basic pattern and the movement towards each other take place simultaneously.
- each suction cup is secured to a hollow guide bush or a suction pipe extending through it, the bushes are accommodated, in groups, for sliding movement in relatively movable guides, each guide bush is fixed to a guide plate, and the guide plates which are fixed to one and the same guide are interconnected by two slotted coupling elements disposed diametrically relatively to the guide bush.
- the guides may each, with the help of sliding bearings, be connected with shafts disposed on opposite sides of the frame, and cylinder and piston combinations are mounted between the guides.
- one of the guide bushes of each set cooperating with one guide may be connected to the free end of the piston rod so as to be restrained from rotation and the guide plate located opposite the piston rod end may be engaged by a spring, on the one hand, and by a coupling plate, on the other, the other end of each of which is fixed to the frame.
- the frame may be provided with a vacuum tank, which, on the one hand, can be connected with a vacuum source and, on the other hand, is provided with a number of connecting nipples corresponding to the number of hollow guide bushes, which connecting nipples are each fixed, by means of vacuum tubes, to a hollow guide bush or a suction pipe extending through it. It is thus achieved that the apparatus operates correctly even in case one or more bricks are missing by whatever cause.
- each guide may consist of two pairs of strips in spaced superimposed relationship, with the guide plates being each attached between the two lower and upper strips.
- Fig. 1 which shows a top view of a stack of bricks
- bricks 1 are supplied in a number of rows, in this example four, of eleven bricks each. From the closed pattern shown in Fig. 1 a the rows are spaced a small distance apart (Fig. 1b). As Fig. 1c shows, the bricks of each row are then spaced a small distance apart, at the same time the bricks of adjoining rows are put in an off-set position relative to each other. Then all the bricks are turned, that is to say: each of the successive rows alternately in opposite direction (Fig. 1d).
- Figures 2a, 2b, 2c and 2d successively show the positions of the bricks when moved from the closed pattern in which they are supplied to the off-set pattern shown in Fig. 2d.
- FIGs 3-7 For mechanically laying paving the apparatus shown in Figures 3-7 may be used.
- jib 2 of a travelling crane 3 is shown.
- These two figures show that from the stack of bricks 4, supplied, by means of a suction-lift device 5 carried by the free end of jib 2, the upper layer can be taken from the stack of bricks 4. After placing the bricks in the correct pattern these can be placed in the pavement simultaneously.
- the suction-lift device 5 will now be described in more detail with reference to Figures 5, 6 and 7. These show that the suction-lift device is provided with a frame 6. In this frame two parallel shafts are secured one above the other at both sides.
- each brick is engaged separately by a suction cup 8.
- Each of the suction cups is secured to a suction pipe 9 extending through a guide bush 10 which in turn is secured to a guide plate 11.
- the drawing shows that the guide bushes are mounted in a guide consisting of four spaced strips 12, 13, 14 and 15 for cooperation with the suction cups for engaging a single row of bricks.
- the ends of strips 12-15 are each attached, by means of couplings, to sliding bearings 17 mounted on shaft 7.
- Guide bushes 10 are each positioned for sliding movement between strips 12, 14, on the one hand, and strips 13, 15, on the other, while guide plates 11, fixed to guide bushes 10, are positioned for sliding movement between strips 12, 13, on the one hand, and strips 14, 15, on the other.
- the adjoining guide plates 11, fixed to guide bushes cooperating with one guide are each interconnected by two pairs of coupling strips 18.
- the coupling strips, each engaging with each guide plate diametrically opposite the guide bush, are at one end equipped with a slot 19.
- the coupling plate 11 located on one end of a row is secured to coupling 16 by a spring 20, on the one hand, and by a coupling rod 21, on the other.
- a piston-and-cylinder assembly 22 is used for realizing the desired movement pattern.
- the free end of piston rod 23 thereof is, by means of a strip 24, fixed to one of the guide bushes 10 cooperating with one guide 12-15.
- For the spacing apart of guides 12-15 during the execution of the desired movement pattern these are each interconnected by piston-and-cylinder combinations 25 on the position of couplings 16.
- FIGS 5 and 7 show a vacuum tank 26, arranged within frame 6 of the suction-lift device, which tank is provided with a number of connecting nipples 27 corresponding with the number of guide plates. Connecting nipples 27 are each, by means of vacuum tubes 28, connected with a suction pipe 9. Although not shown in the drawing, it will be clear that the vacuum tank may be connected with a vacuum pump fixed to carriage 3, by means of a tube.
- the drawing shows that the top of the frame is provided with a connecting flange 29 for attachment to the movable jib 2 of crane 3.
- a servo motor not shown may be built in for selectively turning the frame of the suction-lift device, so that the position thereof may be adapted to the position of the stack of bricks from which the upper layer or part thereof is to be removed and for placing the same on the exact position in the pavement pattern.
- the construction of the guides and the mutual connection of the guide plate could easily be changed.
- such as clamping means could be provide to ensure that the rows of bricks to be engaged are held properly in contact with each other, so that each suction cup engage with the subjacent bricks approximately in the middle.
- the apparatus lends itself particularly well to placing smaller zones than the four or eleven bricks placed in this case, namely by covering some of the suction cups or closing them in some other way. Also the suction cup located in a fully enclosed corner can be closed, and the remaining brick, which is apt to give trouble during mechanical placing, may be manually put in its place afterwards.
