Abstract:
A mold extractor assembly for use with a concrete products forming machine of a type having mold mount shelves and a feed box assembly mounted behind the mold mount shelves and moveable in a vertical and horizontal direction to dispense concrete into cavities defined within a mold box mounted on the shelves. The mold extractor assembly comprises a guide rail assembly horizontally oriented along and vertically moveable with the feed box assembly. An extractor arm assembly is moveable along the guide rail assembly in a horizontal direction toward the mold mount shelves. An extractor fork assembly is telescopically nested about the extractor arm assembly and configured to extend a horizontal reach of the mold extractor assembly to beyond the mold mount shelves so that the mold box can be lifted off of the mold mount shelves via the extractor fork assembly and carried forwardly to a mold transfer assembly.
