Abstract:
A ring for stabilizing the upper end of concrete pipes during their hardening, comprising an inner and an outer ring part, one of which presents a shaping face for the pipe while the other one is provided with an inflatable annulus serving, when inflated, to press the pipe material, while still plastic, firmly against said shaping face.
Abstract:
A spigot-end shaper has an inner ring and a concentric outer ring that is slotted and is radially expandable. In molding, the inner ring shapes the end face of the spigot and the outer ring shapes the spigot''s outer wall, being clamped around the inner ring. In a mold-removing position, the outer ring is freely axially displacable away from the spigot end.
