The present application is directed at a cement slurry collection chute basin that incorporates a leak proof means, no matter what the size or condition of the end of the concrete flop chute. By using a forward angled entry trough with a square large basin area having the attachment hooks in a forward position, the weight is put in the rear and the forward edge of the device is held forward of the end flange and tight against the lower surface of the concrete chute. A screen separates the aggregate from the cement slurry, which flows out a drain orifice in the bottom. An alternate embodiment is constructed from "half-pipe" housing. This alternate embodiment cement slurry collection chute basin will be much more efficient and economical to manufacture because of the "half-pipe" construction and the ease with which it could he welded and fabricated into form.

I claim: 1. A cement slurry collection chute basin comprising: (a) a housing having a front wall, rear wall, bottom wall and side walls for the purpose of containing cement slurry from a cement flop chute; (b) a slanted stepped trough extending from and integrated with said front wall, including a forward flange edge for the purpose of extending under the cement flop chute, mating with the bottom surface of the flop chute and thereby preventing cement slurry from spilling therefrom; (c) a pair of attachment hooks pivotably attached to said side walls wherein said pair of attachment hooks pivotably attached to said side walls are pivotably attached using a pair of pivot pins having shaft locking collars to secure said attachment hooks and further wherein said pair of attachment hooks pivotably attached to said side walls are pivotably attached using a single fixed rod having shaft locking collars to secure said attachment hooks; and (d) a drain orifice and drain nipple located in said bottom wall for allowing water and cement slurry to exit said housing; whereby when attached to a cement truck flop chute, the cement slurry collection chute basin collects cement slurry originating from the flop chute and prevents spillage of same. 2. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 1, wherein said forward flange edge on said slanted stepped trough is shaped to make contact with and mate with conventional cement truck flop chutes. 3. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 1, wherein said slanted stepped trough is slanted at an angle to assure that all of the cement slurry leaving the cement truck flop chute will enter the cement slurry collection chute basin. 4. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 3, wherein said slanted stepped trough is slanted at an angle of about 10 degrees to about 30 degrees. 5. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 4, wherein said slanted stepped trough is slanted at an angle of 20 degrees. 6. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 1, wherein said pair of attachment hooks pivotably attached to said side walls are pivotably attached using a single fixed rod having shaft locking collars to secure said attachment hooks, and are position adjustable along the length of said fixed rod to accommodate differing sizes of cement truck flop chutes. 7. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 1, further comprising an aggregate screen extending from said front wall to said rear wall and in contact with said side walls for the purpose of screening out cement aggregate to prevent it from exiting the cement slurry collection chute basin. 8. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 1, wherein said housing further includes a handle. 9. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 1, wherein said drain nipple is threaded. 10. A cement slurry collection chute basin comprising: (a) a housing fabricated from a half-pipe having a front wall and a rear wall, a curved bottom wall and side walls for the purpose of containing cement slurry from a cement flop chute; (b) a slanted stepped trough extending from and integrated with said front wall, including a forward flange edge for the purpose of extending under the cement flop chute, mating with the bottom surface of the flop chute and thereby preventing cement slurry from spilling therefrom; (c) a pair of attachment hooks pivotably attached to said side walls wherein said pair of attachment hooks pivotably attached to said side walls are pivotably attached using a pair of pivot pins having shaft locking collars to secure said attachment hooks and further wherein said pair of attachment hooks pivotably attached to said side walls are pivotably attached using a single fixed rod having shaft locking collars to secure said attachment hooks, and are position adjustable alone the length of said fixed rod to accommodate differing sizes of cement truck flop chutes; and (d) a drain orifice and drain nipple located in said bottom wall for allowing water and cement slurry to exit said housing; whereby when attached to a cement truck flop chute, the cement slurry collection chute basin collects cement slurry originating from the flop chute and prevents spillage of same. 11. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 10, wherein said forward flange edge on said slanted stepped trough is shaped to make contact with and mate with conventional cement truck flop chutes. 12. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 10, wherein said slanted stepped trough is slanted at an angle to assure that all of the cement slurry leaving the cement truck flop chute will enter the cement slurry collection chute basin. 13. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 12, wherein said slanted stepped trough is slanted at an angle of about 10 degrees to about 30 degrees. 14. The cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 10, further comprising an aggregate screen extending from said front wall to said rear wall and in contact with said side walls for the purpose of screening out cement aggregate to prevent it from exiting the cement slurry collection chute basin. 15. A method for making a cement slurry collection chute basin, comprising the steps of: (a) providing a housing having a front wall, rear wall, bottom wall and side walls for the purpose of containing cement slurry from a cement flop chute; (b) integrating a slanted stepped trough with said front wall extending from said front wall, including a forward flange edge for the purpose of extending under the cement flop chute, mating with the bottom surface of the flop chute and thereby preventing cement slurry from spilling therefrom; (c) pivotably attaching a pair of attachment hooks to said side walls; and (d) providing a drain orifice and drain nipple located in said bottom wall for allowing water and cement slurry to exit said housing; whereby when attached to a cement truck flop chute, the cement slurry collection chute basin collects cement slurry originating from the flop chute and prevents spillage of same. 16. The method for making a cement slurry collection chute basin according to claim 15, wherein said step of providing a housing further includes the step of providing a housing fabricated from a half-pipe having a front wall and a rear wall, for the purpose of containing cement slurry from a cement flop chute; whereby said cement slurry collection chute basin fabricated from said half-pipe is more efficiently and more economically fabricated.
