First Claim
Patent Images
1. A connecting and pressure-distributing element for two concrete structural members to be poured in succession in the same plane and separated by a joint, comprising:
- a socket portion intended to be attached to a frontal concrete form and to be embedded in the first-poured of said two concrete structural members;
a bar insertable in said socket portion and intended to be embedded in the second-poured of said two concrete structural members;
a plurality of closed loops made from reinforcing rods, at least two said loops being disposed around and spaced from said socket portion, at least two said loops being disposed around and spaced from said bar, said loops being respectively secured to said socket portion and said bar.

Abstract
The element comprises a socket and a bar slidingly insertable into the opening of the socket. Disposed around and spaced from both the socket and the bar are at least two closed loops each, of generally rectangular shape and made from reinforcing rods. The loops are secured to the socket and the bar, respectively, in one case by welding, in another case by means of a holder. Because they are symmetrically spaced from the socket and the bar, they ensure good distribution of pressure within the concrete.

8. A connecting and pressure-distributing element, comprising:
-
a longitudinally extending socket portion being open at a first end and closed at a second end; flange means extending from the first end of the socket portion, said flange means being flush with the first end and extending perpendicularly from the longitudinal direction of the socket portion; longitudinally extending bar means insertable in said socket portion in an axially adjustable means; loop means having an outer portion and an inwardly extending inner portion, a plurality of said loop means being secured to the socket portion and a plurality of said loop means being secured to the bar means, said loop means being secured by attaching the inner portion thereof to the respective socket portion and bar means such that the loop means extends substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the socket portion and bar means. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11)
