Automating the interconnection of concrete building elements
The device 20 automates the activation of a telescopic connector 10 with an outer tube 11 and an inner element 12 movable by being slid within the outer tube. The connector is incorporated within a precast concrete element such that an end of the connector is at a side face of the concrete element. An aperture 15 extends between a top face of the connector and a top face of the concrete element. The device can rest on the top face of the concrete element, with a frame 30 projecting down to locate in the aperture. A linear actuator 40, 42 causes linear motion of a movable element 44. A connecting element 32 extends through the apertures and connects the movable element to the inner element of the telescopic connector so the device can cause the inner element to extend out from the concrete element into an adjacent recess, during building construction. The device has a motor which is wirelessly controlled possibly by use of a camera in the device. Also claimed is a method of coupling concrete elements using connectors and the device.
