Concrete product machine apron gap adjustment by actuating a gapper mechanism to set a desired gap between a reciprocally-movable apron plate and an interchangeably installable mold assembly installed in a concrete products machine. The gapper mechanism sets a desired gap between the machine apron plate and the mold assembly by injecting an index amount of hydraulic fluid into fluid communication with the rod side of a primary apron plate positioning cylinder, causing the machine's apron plate to retreat a desired gap distance away from an engaged position against the mold assembly.

Disclosed is a measurement device for a vibration device of a concrete-block production plant. The vibration device has a vibrating table and impact strips arranged parallel to each other and parallel to the ground with relation to their longitudinal axes. The measurement device comprises at least one measurement unit for distance. The measurement unit is arranged above the vibrating table and the impact strips, wherein the measurement unit can be guided orthogonally to the impact strips and parallel to the ground using a guide unit. During the guiding process, the measurement unit operates at predefined measuring positions and/or positions determined during the guiding process via the impact strips and the vibrating table, using the measurement unit, the vertical distances from the top sides of the impact strips and/or the vibrating table to reference positions, which result from the heights of the measurement unit at the respective measuring positions, can be determined.

A vibration assembly for supporting a base pallet of a concrete pipe manufacturing machine, and a method for adjusting the assembly. The assembly includes an assembly frame, at least two pallet driving blocks supported for position adjustment relative to one another on the frame, and a vibrator connected to at least one of the pallet driving blocks. The pallet driving blocks transmit force to the base pallet of the concrete pipe manufacturing machine.

A regenerated block concrete prefabricated laminated slab includes a new concrete, waste concrete blocks, and a steel bar mesh on a bottom of the slab. The waste concrete blocks can protrude out from a surface part of the new concrete, but a protruding height is no more than 25 mm, and the protruding height is limited by an assembling die. The assembling die comprises a casting die and a height-limiting cover plate, a side die of the casting die is reserved with a steel bar positioning hole, and a vertical position of the height-limiting cover plate is positioned at four corners of the casting die through screws, limiting nuts and gaskets of different thicknesses. A manufacturing process of the regenerated block concrete prefabricated laminated slab is also provided.

The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a canal component which comprises a connection portion 104, 106 designed to come into contact with a component 100, in particular an adjacent canal component, which is to be connected to the canal component 100, the method comprising the following steps: providing a concrete base body, coating the base body with a plasticized plastics material 110 in the region of the connection portion 104, 106 and in the region of an internal wall (108) of the base body facing the canal inner space 106, and curing the plastics material (110).

A method of manufacturing the cement-mixed concrete tile includes the following steps: a portion of cement is mixed with sand at a ratio within a range of 1:4 to 3:4, then a predetermined number of cups of water is added to the mixture formed by the cement and the sand. A water reducing agent which increases flowability is added to the above mixture to form a first mixture. A mold is positioned on a vibration table, where a weaved fiberglass mesh is positioned on top of the mold. The first mixture is loaded into the mold and the vibration table is vibrated, and then cement mix is mixed into the mold separately to fill from above the weaved fiberglass mesh towards the top of the mold through the first mixture, and where the mold is placed in retention for a predetermined time to generate the cement-mixed concrete tile.

A mold for manufacturing self-locking blocks made of cement material, includes a mold box, provided with a rigid external frame, with a rigid insert which has internal cavities for obtaining the blocks. The mold further includes a presser shaped complementarily to the insert, and a flexible connecting joint being present perimetrically between the frame and the insert. The insert rests on a table which interacts with a vibrating surface.

A concrete product machine comprising a vibrator assembly and a mold assembly. The vibrator assembly includes a vibrator shaft supported for rotation by a vibrator bearing set carried by a vibrator bearing housing. The mold assembly is carried by the vibrator assembly and includes a concrete product mold carried by a mold support member. The mold support member is carried by the vibrator bearing housing. A mold assembly support joint comprises first and second support surfaces of the vibrator bearing housing engaging respective first and second support surfaces of the mold support member in a tapered fit.
