Apparatus and method for continuously forming concrete blocks or pavers comprises a frame (18) for defining a supporting structure with a mould box flexibly mounted thereon, the mould box having internal cavities contoured to define preselected block patterns, wherein a feed device (12,14) for receiving concrete material is operable for selective positioning over an upper surface of the mould box for investing concrete material into the cavities. First and second sets of vibrators (136,144) are mounted, respectively, generally at opposite ends of the mould box means and are operable for being selectively driven by associated first and second power drives (132,143). The first and second power drives are selectively operable for synchronising or independently actuating the first and second sets of vibrators, respectively, so that concrete material invested into the cavities of the mould box may be vibrated so that the concrete material is evenly distributed in substantially equal masses throughout the cavity in the mould box. |
