FRED BINTLIFF, 0F MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA.
PROCESS OZE PRODUCING MONOLITI-IIG CGNCRETE TOMBS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 12, 1920.
Application filed March 11, 1320. Serial No. 364.936.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, FRED S. BINTLIFF, a citizen of the United States, residing at Minneapolis, in the county of Hennepin and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Processes of Producing Monolithic Concrete Tombs; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention has for its object to provide an improved process of applying monolithic concrete tombs around burial boxes containing bodies, and, by means of this process, the lifting or otherwise movlng of the tombs or concrete inclosmg casings is made unnecessary.
To the above end, the invention consists of the novel devices and. combinations of devices hereinafter described and defined in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, which illustrate the invention, like characters inclicate like parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the drawings Figure l is a view in'transverse section taken through an open grave having formed on its bottom a concrete base, which is the first step in my improved process, said view also illustrating, by means of broken lines,
a burial box supported on the base;
Fig. 2 is a perspective view showing the open grave in longitudinal section and illustrating the burial box and form supported on the base in a position to receive concrete therebetween Fig. 3 is a plan view of the parts shown in Fig. 1;
Fig. at is a transverse section of the parts shown in Fig. 2, but further illustrating the metal reinforcement and concrete placed between the burial box and form;
Fig. 5 is a view corresponding to Flg. 4,
but further illustrating the cover on the burial box and the concrete poured thereover Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the form;
Fig. 7 is a fragmentary perspective View illustrating, in detail, one of the corners of the form;
Fig. 8 is a detail view in horizontal section, taken on the line 88 of Fig. 7 and Fig. 9 is a perspective view of one of the corner brackets of the form.
The numeral 10 indicates an open grave, and the numeral 11 indicates a commonly used burial box, having a removable cover 12, for holding a casket. The first step in my improved process is to place, on the bottom of the grave, a shallow rectangular form 13, the lower edge of which, as shown, is set slightly into the ground to hold the same in place and prevent spreading. A base 14 is formed on the bottom of the grave by pouring concrete into the form 18 to form the bottom of the tomb, and a sheet of wire netting 15 is preferably embedded therein to afford a metal reinforcement. After the base 14 is formed, the burial box 11 is placed thereon, and surrounding the burial box 11 is a form 16 of novel construction, which also rests on the base 1% with its lower edge portion slightly pressed therein to hold said form properly positioned around the burial box 11 and also to prevent spreading.
l/Vire netting 17, to afford a metal reinforcement for the walls of the vault, is
placed edgewise between the burial box 11 and form 16, with its lower edge portion resting on the base 14 and with its upper edge portion extending above the upper edge of the burial box 11, but terminating below the upper edge of the form 16. After the metal reinforcement 17 is in position, concrete 18 is poured between the burial box 11 and form 16 to form the walls of the tomb. The tomb is now ready to receive the casket, and after the same is lowered into the burial box 11, the cover 12 is secured on the burial box 11 in the customary manner. Concrete 19 is then poured over the top 12 and tops of the walls 18 to form the top of the tomb. This concrete 19 also runs around and through the projecting upper edge portion of the metal reinforcement 17 After the concrete 19 has been poured, the grave may be filled and the monolithic tomb covered with earth.
The improved form, which is of rectangular form, consists of two side members and two end members preferably cut from composition wall board and connected at their ends by corner brackets 20. Each of these corner brackets is formed from a single sheet of metal bent to form an angle having in eachof its flanges a vertical channel 21.'
These channels 21 are adapted to receive the vertical edge portions of the ends and sides of they form 16, as best shown in Figs. 7 and 8. After the sides and ends of the form 16 have been fitted into the channels 21 of the corner brackets 20, the inner walls of said channels are inwardly dented or upset by any suitable tool to form lock tongues 22, which are extended into the inner faces of the ends and side members of the form 16 to secure the same in the channels 21.
The above described form, while extremely cheapto manufacture, can be very quickly put together. WVhen in knock-down form, the improved form can be stored or shipped in very compact form.
What I claim is:
-1. The process of forming monolithic tombs, which consists in pouring a concrete base on the bottom of a grave, placing a burial box and a surrounding form on the base, and filling the entire space between the burial box and form and covering the top of said box with concrete.
2. The process of forming monolithic tombs, which consists in pouring a concrete base on the bottom of a grave and embedding a wire netting therein, placing a burial box and a surrounding form on the base, placing wire netting between the burial box and form and extending the same above said box, and'filling the entire space between the burial box and form and covering the top of said box with concrete.
8. The process of forming monolithic tombs, which consists in pouring a concrete base on the bottom of a grave, placing a burial box and a surroundmg form on the base, filling the entire space between the burial box and form with concrete, and
placing the cover on the burial box and pouring concrete thereon and over the concrete filling the space between the burial box and form. v
4. The process of forming monolithic tombs, which consists in pouring a concrete base on the bottom of a grave, placing a burialbox and a surrounding form on the base, placing metal reinforcement between the burial box and form, filling the entire space between the burial box and form with concrete, and placing the cover on the burial box and pouring concrete thereon and over the concrete filling the space between the burial box and for 1 5. The process of forming monolithic tombs, which consists in pouring a concrete base on the bottom of a grave, placing a burial box and a surrounding form on the base and pressing the lower edge portion of the form into the concrete basc'filling the entire space between the burial box and form, placing the coveron the burial box and pouring concrete thereon and" over the concrete filling the space between the burial box and form.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
FRED S. BINTLIFF.
Witnesses: WINIFRED I. WARD, HARRx D. KILGORE.
