Abstract:
A casted block molding apparatus, including a mold, first and second filler boxes, and a pressing mechanism. The first filler box is displaceable along opposed directions between an overlapping position where a first bottom opening is located over the mold cavities and a retracted position away from the mold cavities. The first bottom opening is closed by a first cover in the retracted position and is open over the mold cavities. The second filler box is mounted to the first filler box and displaceable therewith along the opposed directions. The bottom opening of the second filler box is closed by a second cover when the filler boxes are displaced from the retracted position to the overlapping position. The second bottom opening is open after the first filler box reaches the overlapping position. A method for molding casted blocks is also discussed.
Abstract:
A culvert structure interconnectable with interconnectable paver blocks. The culvert structure comprises an elongated rigid casing having a bottom wall, opposed parallel vertical side walls, and an open top end. One of the vertical side walls has at least one projection formation for interconnection with a slot of adjacent ones of the paver blocks in a paved surface formed by the paver blocks. The other of the vertical side walls has a slot formation for interconnection with a blocks engaging projection of adjacent ones of the paver blocks in the paved surface. The bottom wall has passage means for the evacuation of water therethrough and a support structure connected to the rigid casing for supporting a grate over the open top end.
