ABSTRACT:
A device for use in casting concrete piles in a mold consisting of a bottom section and two side walls. The piles are formed with lengthwise reinforcement rods, on the ends of which are attached interconnecting members passing through the end fittings of the pile. The device is characterized by an alignment member arranged to be positioned in the mold. Abutment faces on the alignment member are arranged in engagement with the side walls and the bottom section of the mold at right angles to the longitudinal extension thereof. The alignment member is provided with shoulders forming points of abutment for engagement with the ends of the interconnecting members. A pulling means is arranged to engage in the center of said end fitting members and with the aid of a support means provided in said alignment member to urge the ends of the interconnecting members into abutment against the shoulders of the alignment member, when said tightening means is tightened. The device facilitates alignment of the end fitting members in an exactly right-angled position to the longitudinal direction of the mold and ensures that the aligned relationship is maintained throughout the entire casting operation.
