Abstract
A method and apparatus for producing special brick shapes such as corner brick and arch brick is disclosed. In accordance with the invention, selected slugs are pushed from an off-bearing belt under surface treatment means to an elevator. A cutter box or frame is located above the elevator. Such frame includes cutter means to cut the slugs into a desired shape and surface treatment means for treating the side edges of the slugs. The elevator raises the slugs up through the cutter frame to a position in alignment with the discharge platform. A single pusher assembly operates to push the slugs from the off-bearing belt to the elevator at one elevation and to push the cut slugs from the elevator onto the discharge platform at another elevation. The apparatus operates in conjunction with a conventional setting machine without interfering with the operation thereof.
