Latest Patents
Crone's latest patents include a method of forming a rebate in a surface of a slip form cast core using a rebate form with ferrule support. This innovative formwork system is designed for use in slip form casting central cores of high-rise buildings. It provides a rebate form for a rebate at the level of each floor slab, which is subsequently cast. The rebate form is engineered to carry ferrules that are cast into the core at the level of the rebate, providing anchoring points for the incorporation of reinforcement associated with the floor slab. The ferrules are connected to the rebate form via plugs, which are stripped from the ferrules after casting when the rebate form and main slip form are withdrawn.
Another significant patent by Crone is a lifting anchor support. This support stand is designed for a lifting anchor to be incorporated into a concrete component during casting. It is formed from two identical components of bent wire, which are assembled to create an upper support frame with legs projecting downwardly. The two components are connected by only two welds, each located at one of the two zones of intersection of the components.
