Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of concrete pouring, specifically relating to a new type of independent foundation cap formwork. Background Technology
[0002] In building construction, the conventional method for constructing independent foundation caps involves using brick masonry or precast slab formwork to provide the formwork system, followed by concrete pouring. Brick masonry construction requires a large number of blocks and labor, resulting in a long construction period, low efficiency, and high labor costs. While precast slab formwork can solve the aforementioned problems, it requires a day for the formwork system to reach its strength, followed by internal support structures, backfilling, and finally external support to achieve the formwork system's strength and ensure the concrete pouring. Currently, the project uses wooden formwork for the foundation caps, mostly using old formwork, resulting in poor reinforcement and shaping, especially on the sloping sections of the independent foundation caps. The skill level of the workers significantly affects the final shaping effect. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a novel independent foundation cap formwork. Through the formwork's fit against the side of the foundation cap and the connecting mechanism at the top of the formwork, the outward tilt angle of the top of the foundation cap (i.e., the slope of the cone-shaped surface at the top of the foundation cap) can be adjusted according to the different positions of the connecting parts on the central column of the foundation cap. This solves the problem that current projects often use wooden formwork for foundation cap support, mostly relying on old formwork, resulting in poor reinforcement and forming effects, especially in the sloping areas of independent foundation caps where the skill level of workers significantly impacts the forming effect.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a novel independent foundation platform template, comprising templates arranged around the foundation, a connecting mechanism for connecting the central column of the foundation is provided on the top of the template, the connecting mechanism includes a fixed rod connected to the top of the template, a telescopic rod connected to the fixed rod, a connector for connecting to the central column of the foundation is connected to the top of the telescopic rod, and an adjusting mechanism for adjusting the length of the fixed rod and the telescopic rod is provided between the fixed rod and the telescopic rod.
[0005] Preferably, the adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment knob disposed between the fixed rod and the telescopic rod. The inner wall of the adjustment knob is provided with internal threads from the middle to both ends, and the adjacent ends of the fixed rod and the telescopic rod are provided with external threads that match the internal threads.
[0006] Preferably, the outer periphery of the adjusting lever is provided with anti-slip texture.
[0007] Preferably, the template has a U-shaped structure, and a number of holes are equally spaced on the U-shaped inner groove of the template. Fixing rods for inserting into the ground and fixing the template are installed inside the holes.
[0008] Preferably, the connector is a hook, and the telescopic rod is connected to the hook on the central column of the foundation through the hook.
[0009] Preferably, the connector is a snap fastener, and the telescopic rod is connected to the snap fastener on the central column of the foundation through the snap fastener.
[0010] Preferably, a spherical hinge is provided between the bottom end of the fixing rod and the top of the template.
[0011] Preferably, the template, connecting mechanism, and fixing rod are all made of metal.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by enclosing the foundation casting space with templates, the connecting mechanism at the top of the templates can adjust the outward tilt angle of the top of the foundation (i.e., the slope of the cone surface of the top of the foundation) according to the different positions of the connecting parts in the central column of the foundation, by adjusting the position of the telescopic rod and utilizing the flexibility of the spherical hinge, so as to meet different design requirements.
[0013] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0020] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a novel independent foundation platform formwork includes a formwork 1 arranged around the perimeter of the foundation. The top of the formwork 1 is provided with a connecting mechanism 3 for connecting the central column 2 of the foundation. The connecting mechanism 3 includes a fixed rod 31 connected to the top of the formwork 1, a telescopic rod 32 connected to the fixed rod 31, and a connector 4 connected to the central column 2 of the foundation at the top of the telescopic rod 32. An adjusting mechanism 5 for adjusting the length of the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32 is provided between the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32.
[0021] This utility model proposes a novel independent foundation cap formwork. Formwork 1 is the main body of the novel independent foundation cap formwork, positioned around the cap to enclose the concrete pouring space, ensuring the concrete can be formed according to the design shape during pouring. The central column 2 is located at the center of the cap and is an important component of the cap structure, supporting the superstructure or other critical functions, working collaboratively with the overall cap structure.
[0022] The connecting mechanism 3 is located on top of the template 1 and connects the template 1 with the central column 2 of the foundation, so that the entire foundation structure remains stable and intact during construction and subsequent use.
[0023] The fixed rod 31 is connected to the top of the template 1, serving as the basic support for the connecting mechanism 3, providing an installation foundation for the telescopic rod 32, and participating in the support and connection of the overall structure. The telescopic rod 32 is connected to the fixed rod 31 and can extend and retract within a certain range, adjusting its length to adapt to different construction needs and structural size changes.
[0024] Connector 4 is attached to the top of telescopic rod 32 and is used to connect with the central column 2 of the foundation to ensure a reliable connection between the template 1 and the central column 2 of the foundation, thus ensuring the stability of the entire structure.
[0025] The adjustment mechanism 5 is located between the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32, and its main function is to adjust the lengths of the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32. By operating the adjustment mechanism 5, construction personnel can precisely adjust the extension length of the telescopic rod 32 relative to the fixed rod 31 according to the actual situation, thereby meeting the construction requirements of foundations of different sizes and shapes and improving the adaptability and flexibility of the formwork 1 system.
[0026] During the construction of the foundation, the formwork 1 is first installed around the foundation, and its position and enclosed shape are determined. Then, the formwork 1 is connected to the central column 2 of the foundation through the connecting mechanism 3. This forms the upper surface of the poured foundation. The fixing rod 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the formwork 1, and the telescopic rod 32 is connected to the fixing rod 31. The top of the telescopic rod 32 is reliably connected to the central column 2 of the foundation through the connector 4, so that the entire foundation structure is initially formed as a whole.
[0027] When encountering foundations of different sizes or needing to adjust the relative position between the formwork 1 and the foundation center column 2 according to actual conditions, construction workers adjust the lengths of the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32 by operating the adjustment mechanism 5. For example, if it is necessary to increase the distance between the formwork 1 and the foundation center column 2, the construction workers operate the adjustment mechanism 5 to extend the telescopic rod 32 relative to the fixed rod 31, thereby increasing the overall length of the connecting mechanism 3; conversely, if it is necessary to shorten the distance, the adjustment mechanism 5 is operated to retract the telescopic rod 32 into the fixed rod 31. Through this adjustment method, the relative position and distance between the formwork 1 and the foundation center column 2 can be precisely controlled, ensuring the dimensional accuracy and stability of the foundation structure. At the same time, the slope from the center of the foundation top outward can be adjusted by connecting the connector 4 to the foundation center column 2.
[0028] After the installation of formwork 1 and the adjustment of connecting mechanism 3 are completed, the concrete pouring of the foundation can begin. The concrete forms within the space enclosed by formwork 1. Through the reliable connection of connecting mechanism 3, the central column 2 of the foundation and the surrounding formwork 1 form a unified structure, jointly bearing various loads during the concrete pouring process, ensuring the foundation is formed according to design requirements. Once the concrete reaches its design strength, formwork 1 and connecting mechanism 3 are removed, completing the foundation construction.
[0029] This new type of independent foundation cap formwork, through its unique structural design, utilizes the connecting mechanism 3 and the adjusting mechanism 5 to achieve reliable connection and length adjustment between the formwork 1 and the central column 2 of the cap, which can adapt to different construction needs and ensure the construction quality and stability of the cap structure.
[0030] Combination Figure 2, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the adjustment mechanism 5 includes an adjustment knob 51 disposed between the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32. The inner wall of the adjustment knob 51 is provided with internal threads from the middle to both ends. The adjacent ends of the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32 are provided with external threads 52 that match the internal threads.
[0031] Specifically, the adjusting rod 51 is the core component of the adjusting mechanism 5, located between the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32. It serves to connect and adjust the length relationship between the two. The inner wall of the adjusting rod 51 has internal threads arranged from the middle to both ends. The directions of these threads are opposite in different areas of the inner wall of the adjusting rod 51, which is a key structural feature for achieving the length adjustment function.
[0032] External threads 52 are respectively provided at the adjacent ends of the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32. These external threads 52 match the internal threads on the inner wall of the adjusting rod 51. Through the meshing of the threads, the fixed rod 31, the telescopic rod 32 and the adjusting rod 51 can be connected together, and relative movement can be achieved when the adjusting rod 51 rotates, thereby realizing length adjustment.
[0033] Before adjustment, the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32 are respectively engaged with the corresponding internal threads on the inner wall of the adjusting rod 51 via their external threads 52. At this time, the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32 are in a relatively fixed position, and the entire connecting mechanism 3 has an initial length.
[0034] When it is necessary to adjust the length of the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32, the construction worker rotates the adjusting rod 51. Since the internal threads on the inner wall of the adjusting rod 51 are arranged opposite to each other from the middle to both ends, when the adjusting rod 51 is rotated, the internal thread area that engages with the external thread 52 at the end of the fixed rod 31 and the internal thread area that engages with the external thread 52 at the end of the telescopic rod 32 will produce different movement effects.
[0035] Assuming the adjusting rod 51 rotates clockwise, for the internal thread area where the external thread 52 engages at the end of the fixed rod 31, due to the interaction of the threads, the fixed rod 31 will experience a force that moves inwards towards the adjusting rod 51, causing the fixed rod 31 to gradually retract into the adjusting rod 51. Conversely, for the internal thread area where the external thread 52 engages at the end of the telescopic rod 32, because the internal threads rotate in the opposite direction, the telescopic rod 32 will experience a force that moves outwards towards the adjusting rod 51, causing the telescopic rod 32 to gradually extend outwards from the adjusting rod 51. This increases the length of the entire connecting mechanism 3.
[0036] Conversely, if the adjusting lever 51 is rotated counterclockwise, the fixed lever 31 will be extended outward by a force that moves the adjusting lever 51, and the telescopic lever 32 will be retracted inward by a force that moves the adjusting lever 51, thus reducing the length of the connecting mechanism 3.
[0037] Once the desired length is achieved, stop rotating the adjusting lever 51. Due to the self-locking characteristic of the thread, the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32 will stably remain in their adjusted positions without external force, thus achieving precise adjustment and locking of the lengths of the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32, meeting the length requirements of the connecting mechanism 3 in different construction scenarios.
[0038] Through the design of this adjustment mechanism 5, construction workers can conveniently and accurately adjust the length of the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32, thereby realizing flexible adjustment of the relevant dimensions of the new independent foundation platform formwork 1, improving the adaptability and construction efficiency of the formwork 1 system.
[0039] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the outer periphery of the adjusting knob 51 is provided with anti-slip texture.
[0040] Specifically, the adjusting rod 51 is a key component in the adjusting mechanism 5 that enables the length adjustment of the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32, and its outer periphery is provided with anti-slip texture. These anti-slip textures are attached to the outer surface of the adjusting rod 51 in a specific shape and distribution. Common anti-slip texture shapes may include straight stripes, wavy patterns, dotted protrusions, etc. They are arranged along the circumferential and axial directions of the adjusting rod 51 to form a surface structure with a certain roughness and friction.
[0041] When construction workers need to rotate the adjusting rod 51 to adjust the length of the fixed rod 31 and the telescopic rod 32, the anti-slip texture plays a crucial role. During rotation, the worker's hand contacts the outer circumference of the adjusting rod 51, and the anti-slip texture increases the friction between the hand and the adjusting rod 51. Compared to a smooth surface, the adjusting rod 51 with anti-slip texture allows the worker's hand to grip the rod better, reducing relative slippage between the hand and the rod.
[0042] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, template 1 has a U-shaped structure. Several holes 11 are equally spaced on the U-shaped inner groove of template 1. Fixing rods 6 are installed inside the holes 11 for inserting into the ground and fixing template 1.
[0043] Specifically, template 1 has an overall U-shaped structure. The U-shaped structure has a certain degree of spatial enclosure, which can effectively limit the range of concrete pouring and ensure that the concrete is shaped according to the design.
[0044] Several holes 11 are evenly spaced on the U-shaped inner groove of the template 1. These holes 11 are evenly distributed, and their positions and spacing are determined according to factors such as the size of the template 1, the design requirements of the foundation, and construction specifications. The size and shape of the holes 11 match the fixing rods 6 so that the fixing rods 6 can be inserted smoothly.
[0045] The fixing rod 6 is installed inside the hole 11. Its function is to insert it into the ground to fix the formwork 1 in the designated position. The fixing rod 6 is usually made of a material with a certain strength and hardness, such as steel, to ensure that it can withstand the various forces generated during the formwork 1 and concrete pouring process, thus ensuring the stability of the formwork 1.
[0046] Before constructing the foundation, the construction workers moved formwork 1 to the foundation construction location and determined its placement and orientation according to the design requirements, ensuring that its U-shaped structure accurately enclosed the foundation. The workers then inserted fixing rods 6 one by one into the holes 11 on the U-shaped inner groove of formwork 1. During insertion, a suitable tool (such as a hammer) was used to drive the fixing rods 6 vertically downwards into the ground. Because the holes 11 were evenly spaced, the fixing rods 6 were evenly distributed around formwork 1, ensuring that formwork 1 received a uniform fixing force.
[0047] As the fixing rod 6 is driven deeper into the ground, the friction between the fixing rod 6 and the ground, as well as the squeezing effect of the fixing rod 6 on the surrounding soil, gradually increases, thus firmly fixing the formwork 1 to the ground. At this time, the formwork 1 will not move or deform due to external factors, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the concrete pouring space for the foundation.
[0048] After formwork 1 is fixed, the concrete pouring for the foundation can begin. During the concrete pouring process, formwork 1 maintains its enclosed shape thanks to the fixing rods 6, ensuring the concrete forms according to design requirements. Once the concrete reaches its design strength, the fixing rods 6 are removed from the ground, formwork 1 is dismantled, and the foundation construction is complete.
[0049] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the connector 4 is a hook 41, and the telescopic rod 32 is connected to the hook on the central column 2 of the foundation through the hook 41.
[0050] Specifically, the connector 4 is a hook 41 structure. The hook 41 can withstand the corresponding tensile and compressive forces during the connection process without deformation or damage. Its shape is generally a bent hook, with an open end and a closed hook part. The open end is used to connect with the telescopic rod 32, and the hook part is used to hook and connect with the hook 41 on the central column 2 of the foundation.
[0051] The central column 2 of the foundation is also equipped with a hook 41, which has a similar structure to the hook 41 on the telescopic rod 32, and is also a bent hook-shaped structure. The hook 41 is firmly connected to the central column 2 of the foundation, and can usually be fixed in a suitable position on the central column 2 of the foundation by means of welding, bolt connection or other methods to ensure that it will not loosen or fall off during use.
[0052] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, connector 4 is a snap fastener, and telescopic rod 32 is connected to the central column 2 of the foundation via the snap fastener.
[0053] Specifically, the buckle, as connector 4, can withstand the forces exerted during the connection process and is not easily damaged under normal use. A buckle generally consists of two parts: a male buckle and a female buckle. The male buckle is usually designed with protrusions, hooks, or other structures, while the female buckle has corresponding recesses, grooves, or other structures. The two parts work together through specific shapes and sizes to achieve a reliable connection.
[0054] The central column 2 of the foundation is also equipped with clips, the structure of which matches the clips on the telescopic rod 32. These clips also consist of male and female clips, and during installation, the clips on the central column 2 of the foundation and the clips on the telescopic rod 32 are connected to each other. The clips on the central column 2 of the foundation are usually securely installed in the appropriate position of the central column 2 of the foundation by welding, bolting, or other methods to ensure that they will not loosen or fall off during construction.
[0055] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a spherical hinge 7 is provided between the bottom end of the fixing rod 31 and the top of the template 1.
[0056] Specifically, the spherical hinge 7 consists of two main parts: a ball head and a ball socket. The ball head is typically fixed to the bottom end of the fixed rod 31. The ball head has a smooth, spherical surface and possesses a certain strength and wear resistance to withstand the friction and pressure generated during rotation. The ball head can be connected to the fixed rod 31 by welding, threaded connection, etc., ensuring a secure connection that will not loosen or fall off during use.
[0057] A ball socket is located at the top of template 1. The internal shape of the ball socket matches the ball head, forming a space to accommodate it. The ball socket is generally made of metal, and its inner wall is finely machined to ensure flexible rotation with the ball head without excessive gaps. The connection between the ball socket and template 1 also employs reliable methods, such as welding, to ensure the stability of the connection.
[0058] During the construction of concrete components, the workers first install the formwork 1 in the designated position, ensuring its accurate positioning and secure fixation. Then, they align the ball head at the bottom of the fixing rod 31 with the ball socket at the top of the formwork 1 and gently apply pressure to allow the ball head to smoothly embed into the socket. Due to the special structure of the spherical hinge 7, the ball head can rotate freely within the socket, thus creating a certain angle between the fixing rod 31 and the formwork 1. This allows the workers to adjust the relative position of the fixing rod 31 and the formwork 1 according to the actual construction conditions, adapting to different construction environments and the installation requirements of the formwork 1.
[0059] During construction, if it is necessary to adjust the position or angle of the formwork 1 according to the actual situation, the construction personnel can do so by operating the fixing rod 31. Due to the presence of the spherical hinge 7, the fixing rod 31 can rotate freely within a certain range, thereby driving the formwork 1 to make corresponding adjustments. This adjustment method is very flexible and can adapt to different construction needs and site changes, ensuring the construction quality and precision of the concrete components.
[0060] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, template 1, connecting mechanism 3 and fixing rod 6 are all made of metal.
[0061] Specifically, formwork 1 is made of metal, which typically has high strength and hardness, such as steel. The steel material ensures that formwork 1 will not undergo significant deformation or damage when subjected to pressure, lateral pressure, and various external forces during concrete pouring, thus ensuring that the dimensions and shape of the concrete component meet design requirements.
[0062] The connecting mechanism 3 is also made of metal, usually steel. The use of steel ensures that the connecting mechanism 3 has sufficient load-bearing capacity to reliably connect the formwork 1 to other supporting structures or the central column 2 of the foundation, thus ensuring the stability of the entire formwork 1 system.
[0063] The fixing rod 6 is also made of metal, usually high-strength steel. Because the fixing rod 6 needs to be inserted into the ground to fix the position of the formwork 1 and prevent it from moving or shifting during the concrete pouring process, it must have sufficient strength to withstand the resistance when inserted into the ground and the various external forces on the formwork 1.
[0064] This invention represents a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but its scope of protection is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this invention, shall be covered within the scope of protection of this invention.
