Field of the Invention
[0001] The present invention relates to an interior wall formwork, and more particularly
to a formwork construction method for inner wall and device thereof.
Description of the Prior Art
[0002] During construction of a building, the interior and exterior wall formworks should
be erected in advance and set apart at a specific distance, so as to allow the concrete
to be poured in the space between the interior and exterior wall formworks. After
the concrete hardens, the exterior wall formwork can be removed easily without the
constraint of working space. However, the removal of the interior wall formwork is
difficult due to the constraint of space and usually requires the worker to pry the
formwork open, and thus it will likely generate side pressure against the wall that
hasn't hardened completely, causing damage to the wall. The removal of the interior
wall generally needs 24 hours after the concrete hardens, and it is really time consuming.
[0003] The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the afore-described disadvantages.

[0021] Referring to the respective drawings, an interior wall formwork construction method
in accordance with the present invention comprises the steps of: stripping the formwork,
hoisting the formwork, supporting and spreading the formwork outward. The interior
wall formwork 1 is hoisted by a crane.
[0022] The stripping and spreading of the interior wall formwork 1 are achieved by a transverse
motion machine A whose drive part doesn't move with the formwork, and the driven part
is connected to the formwork and makes the formwork move transversely.
[0023] The interior wall formwork 1 is supported by a bracket 21 that stands on a bearing
block B of the interior wall and is hinged to the lower portion of the interior wall
formwork 1.
[0024] The stripping of the interior wall formwork 1 is achieved by the rotation of the
driving part of the transverse motion machine A and the linear movement of the driven
part.
[0025] After stripping, the interior wall formwork 1 can be hoisted by a crane. During the
hoisting of the interior wall formwork 1, the bracket 21 will spread automatically
and negotiate the obstacles on the interior wall, and will stand at a higher bearing
block B on the interior wall after reaching the predetermined position.
[0026] After being well positioned, the interior wall formwork 1 can be pushed outward by
an opposite rotation of the driving part of the transverse motion machine A and an
opposite linear movement of the driven part.
[0027] After spreading to a predetermined position, the interior wall formwork 1 can be
connected to the exterior wall formwork, so as to allow the pouring of concrete.
[0028] For a better understanding of the present invention, its operation and construction,
references should be made to the following descriptions:
1. transverse motion machine
[0029] The aforementioned transverse motion machine A is a screw driven device comprising
a screw shaft 2 and a nut 3, and the nut 3 is connected to the interior wall formwork
1 via a connecting board 4. For enabling the interior wall formwork 1 to be moved
to the predetermined position, between the nut 3 and the connecting board 4 is disposed
an adjusting mechanism that comprises a press board 5 and a connecting member 6. The
nut 3 is formed at an end thereof with a flange 31. The connecting board 4 is mounted
on the outer periphery of the nut 3 and a side of the connecting board 4 is located
at a side of the flange 31. The press board 5 is mounted on the screw shaft 2, a side
of the press board 5 is located at another side of the flange 31, and the press board
5 is connected to the connecting board 4 via the connecting member.
[0030] The screw shaft 2 is provided with an abutting assembly 7 that is used to abut against
the interior wall, and the abutting assembly 7 includes a left block 71 and a right
block 72 that are disposed at both sides of the flange formed at the end of screw
shaft 2.
[0031] In order to make the upper and lower ends of the interior wall formwork 1 move synchronously
and stably, the upper end of the interior wall formwork 1 is connected to a transverse
motion machine 9 via a connecting member 8, and the drive part of transverse motion
machine 9 is connected to the screw shaft 2 via a driven part. The transverse motion
machine 9 in this embodiment is a screw driven device comprising a screw shaft and
a nut. The upper end of the interior wall formwork 1 is mounted to the nut by the
connecting member 8.
[0032] In this embodiment, the rotary wheels 10 and 11 are chain wheels, the transmitting
belt 12 between the rotary wheels 10 and 11 is a chain, and on the screw shaft 2 is
arranged a manual spin handle 13.
[0033] The nuts 3 and 3A are disposed at both ends of the screw shaft 2, forming a screw
driven mechanism, and the two nuts 3 and 3A rotate reversely and are connected the
interior wall formworks 1 and 1a, respectively, so that two opposite interior walls
can be constructed simultaneously. In addition, the transverse motion machine can
be constructed both in longitudinal and transverse directions of a building, so that
four walls can be constructed simultaneously.
2. bracket:
[0034] the number of the bracket 21 hinged to the bottom of the interior wall formwork 1
at least corresponds with that of the interior wall formworks 1, the bracket 21 stands
on the bearing block B of the interior wall, and in this embodiment, the bracket 21
is a supporting rod.
[0035] If a building has three walls, there should be at least three brackets 21. In this
embodiment, the building includes four walls, and there should be at least four brackets
21, the brackets 21 can be supporting rod or supporting board.
[0036] In this embodiment, the bracket 21 is provided with an automatic spreading device
for spreading the bracket 21 outward, and the spreading device in this embodiment
is a weight rod 22, so that the bracket 21 can spread and stand on the bearing block
B of the interior wall 1 automatically after being hoisted up.
3. bearing block B:
[0037]
the bearing block B is a positioning member mounted to the interior wall and can be
arranged at the interior wall of a lower floor.
[0038] For easy construction, the lower end of the bracket 21 can be fixed to the bearing
block B by a positioning member 23 that has a locking groove 23A for engaging with
the locking protrusion of the bearing block B. in this embodiment, the positioning
member 23 is an independent structure mounted to the bracket 21.
[0039] Due to the self servo action, the drive part of the screw driven device only needs
a very small torque, the driven part can produce a large axial force. Therefore, the
interior wall formwork can be stripped and moved easily. Besides, the screw driven
device has a self lock function, it ensures that the interior wall formwork can be
locked at a predetermined position after stripping. The screw shaft is provided with
an abutting assembly for abutting against the interior wall, so that the interior
wall formwork can be moved stably.
[0040] In addition, the interior wall formwork is supported by the bracket, and there is
no friction force when spreading the inner wall formwork, so that the drive force
necessary for stripping and spreading the interior wall formwork is relatively small,
and accordingly the operation is easy. Furthermore, the bracket for supporting the
interior wall formwork stand on the bearing block B of a lower floor, therefore, the
time for construction of interior wall formwork and the construction of the wall can
be reduced effectively, and the interior wall formwork can be supported directly on
the bearing block of the inner wall without any suspension device.
