Molds and processes that permit high-speed, mass production of retaining wall blocks having patterned or other processed front faces, as well as retaining wall blocks formed by such processes. The invention permits the front face of the block to be impressed with a pattern or otherwise directly processed, to allow the formation of pre-determined block front faces, while at the same time facilitating high-speed, high-volume production of blocks. A mirror image of the desired pattern can be created on a stripper shoe by selecting a desired three-dimensional surface from a naturally occurring or man made object and digitally scanning the selected three-dimensional pattern to create scanned data. The scanned data can then be used to machine a face of the stripper shoe that is the mirror image of the selected pattern.

A mold, for producing molded blocks with at least one lateral face which has a texture, comprises a mold lower part and at least one flexible belt, wherein the flexible belt surrounds at least one mold wall of the mold lower part that delimits a mold cavity of the mold lower part in order to act on the material for producing the molded block that is received in the mold cavity, to impress a texture on at least one of the lateral faces of the molded block, wherein the flexible belt is moveable relative to the mold lower part and is mounted in such a way that the flexible belt moves around the mold wall when the molded block is ejected from the mold cavity. The mold comprises an active auxiliary device by means of which a rolling resistance of the flexible belt can be varied.

An artificial stone siding product for use as siding for homes, commercial buildings, and other structures, as well as for hearths, mantles, and other similar indoor structures, is provided. The artificial stone siding product includes a stone body cast of a cement aggregate and having an outer visible surface area shaped and colored to resemble real stone. An integral mounting support extends from at least one edge of the stone body. The mounting support allows the attachment of the artificial stone siding product to a surface of a wall using fasteners inserted through apertures defined by the support. The artificial stone siding product may be used to quickly and easily construct a stone wall by mounting a plurality of the artificial stone siding products to the exterior of a wall in much the same way as standard siding.

A non-combustible, synthetic fire-log is disclosed comprising a composition formed to approximate the shape of a combustible object, wherein said composition comprises a substantially non-combustible matrix and an effective amount of hollow spheres. In one embodiment, the effective amount of hollow spheres ranges from approximately 3 to 85 percent of the total composition by weight. The composition enhances the aesthetic quality of the synthetic fire-log when exposed to heat and also decreases the carbon monoxide emissions of synthetic fire-log systems.

An apparatus for molding dry cast products having a textured side surface is disclosed. The apparatus comprises an open compartment for receiving a dry concrete mixture and a plurality of walls laterally enclosing the compartment. At least one of the walls has a multilevel surface with a plurality of sections in an overhanging relationship with each other and transitional curvilinear steps bridging adjacent one of the sections to impart a textured side surface resembling a natural rockface and allowing stripping of the dry cast products from an open bottom side of the compartment.

Disclosed is a process for producing composite board, and the said board is glass fiber reinforced magnesium cement board with wood grain. The process comprises two steps of preparing a mold with wood grain and preparing glass fiber reinforced magnesium cement board using the mold. The first step comprises forming film bearing wood grain, copying the wood grain onto mill rolls, and rolling the formwork with the mill rolls. The second step comprises steps of preparing MgCl2 solution, agitating the mixed raw materials to obtain slurry, conveying the molds, scratching the slurry, disposing the raw materials, rolling, separating, shelving, curing, impregnating the board into water to remove free MgCl2, cutting, spraying protecting-paint, and so on. The process can produce the board with three-dimensional appeal, wood grain similar to that of log, and beautiful appearance. The board produced by the process has advantages of fire proof, water proof, vermin proof, light weight, compression and bending resistant, high strength, no moss growing, and so on.

A mold and a process for non-manually cleaning the undercut along the bottom edge of the division plate which with a pallet under the mold defines a lip-forming subcavity results in a dry cast concrete block with an inside lip radius that is controlled to be within certain tolerances. Non-manually cleaning the undercut during the molding process can include spraying a jet of fluid, such as compressed air, at the undercut.
摘要:
Imitation stone (102) and a section of siding (100) are formed in a mold cavity (202) with a surface that follows a topography (206) of each of one or more natural stones (204), applying pigments (300a), (302a), (304a) and (306a) at different locations on the mold cavity (202) to replicate different colors of each natural stone (204) and to replicate a distribution of the different colors at different locations on the topography (206); and forming an imitation stone material in the mold cavity (202) to replicate the topography (206) of each natural stone on the imitation stone material, and to transfer the pigments (300a), (302a), (304a) and (306a) to the imitation stone material.

A casted concrete stone having opposed parallel surfaces formed in a mold and wherein the opposed parallel surfaces have a molded textured surface. The concrete stone is fabricated by a dry-cast concrete mold wherein a profiling plate is provided with mold bottom wall formations each having a textured outer surface. A bond release film or spray or permanent coating is provided on the textured outer surface of the mold bottom wall formations. Mold forming side walls are disposed about the mold bottom wall formations. After the mold is filled with a dry-cast concrete mixture a top plate, having mold top wall formations, is disposed over the mold forming side walls with the mold top wall formations disposed inside respective ones of the molds to close the molds. Pressure and vibration is applied to compact the dry-cast concrete whereby to form a dry-cast concrete stone with opposed molded textured surfaces.

A concrete building panel has a slab and a plurality of ribs and beams. A series of horizontal holes in the end ribs are spaced at a selected constant spacing such that adjacent panels may be fastened together through them. In one type of panel, the slab is separated from the ribs to provide an air gap. Connections between holes in two adjacent concrete wall panels are made by a hollow conduit having an abutment at either end to engage the concrete wall panels. Other connections between adjacent panels involve a stitch with legs which extend through holes in the beams. Other connections involve a space made by vertical channels of horizontally adjacent panels. A plate fitted into the space aligns the adjacent panels and may extend upwards to align upper panels. Load bearing horizontal holes through the ribs are reinforced with reinforcing bar in the concrete arranged in generally triangular shapes. The concrete panels are formed vertically in a gang form. Connections between a roof panel and another roof panel or a wall panel are described.
