   La présente invention concerne une bande pouvant être chauffée électriquement destinée à la fabrication d'un manchon de raccord de tuyaux de canalisations isolées de la chaleur, qui comportent une enveloppe interne, dans laquelle est transporté un agent, une couche d'isolation thermique formée de matière synthétique expansée, qui entoure l'enveloppe interne, et une enveloppe externe faite de matière synthétique, les extrémités ne portant pas de matière expansée des enveloppes internes de deux tronçons de canalisation à fixer l'un à l'autre étant fixées l'une à l'autre par soudage, l'endroit de raccord étant couvert d'un manchon posé sur les extrémités des enveloppes externes, et l'espace annulaire compris entre le manchon et les enveloppes internes étant rempli de matière expansée,

   le corps de manchon étant consitué par une bande de matière synthétique dont les extrémités sont superposées au-dessus de l'endroit d'assemblage, bande de matière synthétique qui est fixée par soudage tant aux extrémités des enveloppes externes des tuyaux que suivant le joint à recouvrement. 



   Il existe déjà un manchon de raccord, qui fait l'objet du modèle d'utilité allemand numéro DE-GM 802040372, dans le cas duquel la fixation par soudage du corps du manchon aux extrémités des enveloppes externes des tuyaux et la fixation par soudage de la bande de matière synthétique dans la zone de superposition de ses bords sont effectuées au moyen d'une bande pouvant être chauffée électriquement. La bande est constituée par un fil de résistance auquel on a donné une allure sinueuse, dont les différents méandres sont maintenus en place par une bande adhésive. Suivant une autre particularité de réalisation, la bande formée du fil de résistance d'allure sinueuse est fixée par un traitement thermique dans les zones marginales de la bande de matière synthétique. 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 3> 

 



   L'inconvénient que présente ce procédé réside en ce que, lorsqu'il s'agit de raccorder des tuyaux de grandes dimensions, le diamètre du fil de réistance doit être choisi si élevé que l'on risque de ne pas obtenir la fixation par soudage du corps du manchon aux extrémités des enveloppes externes des tuyaux, en particulier dans la zone de recouvrement des bords de la bande de matière synthétique. A cela s'ajoute encore du fait de l'emploi de la bande adhésive, on introduit une matière étrangère dans le joint soudé, ce qui a également pour effet de nuire à la fixation par soudage parfaite des couches voisines l'une à l'autre. 



  En ce qui concerne les tuyaux de grand diamètre, la fixation par le traitement thermique a pour inconvénient particulier que la bande, étant donné l'important diamètre du fil, devient malaisément maniable. 



     C'est   pour les raisons qui viennent d'être exposées que la présente invention vise à procurer une bande chauffante qui permette d'obtenir par le chauffage par résistance une fixation par soudage impeccable, exempte de retassures. 



   Ce but est atteint, suivant la présente invention, par le fait qu'un fil de résistance ayant une allure sinueuse est noyé dans une bande de matière synthétique, la distance comprise entre les différents méandres que forme le fil de résistance étant maintenue constante. Du fait que le fil de résistance est noyé dans une bande de matière synthétique,

   une quantité suffisante de matière synthétique est disponible pour le remplissage des espaces creux qui se présentent entre les couches à fixer l'une à l'autre par soudageo On obtient de cette façon une fixation par soudage de matière synthétique qui se caractérise tant par son étanchéité à l'eau que par son étanchéité aux gazo On obtiendra les meilleurs résultats si la section transver- 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 4> 

 sale de la bande de matière synthétique est au moins égale à la section transversale d'un méandre du fil. 



  De cette manière, il est sûr qu'il ne pourra plus se former de retassures. Selon une autre particularité de réalisation de la présente invention, la largeur de la bande de matière synthétique sera au moins égale à la largeur d'un méandre du fil et l'épaisseur de la bande de matière synthétique correspondra au moins au diamètre du fil de résistance. Dans un tel cas, tous les méandres que forme le fil de résistance sont complètement noyés dans la bande de matière synthétique. Selon une variante de réalisation de la présente invention, la largeur de la bande est inférieure à la largeur d'un méandre et l'épaisseur de la bande est supérieure au diamètre du fil de résistance.

   Au cours de l'opération de soudage, la matière amollie de la bande de matière synthétique sera, sous l'effet de la pression exercée, pressée dans les espaces libres existant entre les méandres et ceci assurera un bon soudage du joint. Comme matière de fabrication de la bande de matière synthétique, il est avantageux d'utiliser la même matière que celle en laquelle sont faits l'enveloppe externe du tuyau de canalisation isolé de la chaleur et le corps du manchon. Par exemple, si l'enveloppe externe et le corps du manchon sont faits de polyéthylène, la bande de matière synthétique sera également en polyéthylène. 



   La présente invention concerne en outre un procédé de fabrication d'une bande destinée à la fixa- 
 EMI4.1 
 tion'par soudage d'un manchon aux enveloppes externes de tuyaux de canalisations isolées de la chaleur ce procédé, le fil de résistance ayant une allure sinueuse est pressé, à l'état chauffé, dans la bande de matière synthétique.

   Selon une caractéristique de réalisation du procédé qui fait l'objet de la présente invention, un fil de résistance est tout d'abord enroulé en 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 5> 

 méandres, une bande de matière synthétique est posée sur les méandres de telle façon que les deux extrémités des méandres restent découvertes, le fil de résistance est chauffé par passage de courant électrique et la bande de matière synthétique est pressée sur les méandres, ceux-ci s'enfonçant ainsi dans la bande de matière synthétique. Ce procédé se prête en particulier à la production de longueurs préfabriquées. Etant donné que les diamètres externes des tronçons de conduits à relier l'un à l'autre sont limités à un nombre de dimensions relativement faible, ce genre de fabrication peut concurrencer une fabrication en continu. 



   Les méandres sont avantageusement posés entre deux bandes de matière synthétique identiques et les deux bandes sont assemblées en une seule bande par soudage sous l'effet du chauffage du fil. 



   La bande pouvant être chauffée qui fait l'objet de la présente invention peut être utilisée de façon tout particulièrement avantageuse lorsqu'il s'agit d'un manchon de raccord dans le cas duquel il est prévu, en dessous du joint à recouvrement, une barre d'appui qui est appliquée sur les extrémités des enveloppes externes des tuyaux. 



   On a pu constater que dans les cas où il existe une grande distance entre lex extrémités des enveloppes externes des tuyaux ou dans les cas où il est utilisé une matière d'une rigidité relativement faible, un soudage correct et précis du joint longitudinal ne pouvait être obtenu que moyennant une dépense relativement élevée. 



   Grâce à la barre d'appui, le joint à recouvrement peut être soudé de façon à être étanche aux liquides, sans que ceci ne nécessite de dépense particulièrement   élevée.   La barre d'appui sert à assurer la contre-pression nécessaire pendant l'exécution de l'opé- 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 6> 

 ration de soudage. Il est particulièrement avantageux que cette barre se présente osous la forme d'un élément profilé en T, qui soit, avantageusement aussi, fait de   tolu mince   Cet élément profilé en T est léger, mais il est cependant d'une rigidité suffisante pour pouvoir résister à la pression exercée sur lui lors de l'opération de   soudage 0   La barre d'appui, de même que le manchon se trouvent dans un évidement annulaire formé dans les extrémités des enveloppes externes.

   Ceci a pour avantage qu'il ne se présente aucun accroissement de diamètre par rapport au diamètre externe de l'enveloppe externe dans la zone du raccord que forme le manchon. 



  De cette manière, aucun effort de cisaillement ne peut agir en cas de déplacement dans le sol. La base de l'élément profilé en T se trouve dans une rainure longitudinale qui est prévue dans la zone de l'évidement. 



   On expliquera ci-après la présente inven-tion de façon plus amplement détaillée àll'aide d'exemples de réalisation de celle-ci qui sont illustrées par les dessins schématiques annexés à ce   mémoire.   



   Pour fabriquer un manchon de raccord tel que celui qui fait l'objet du modèle d'utilité allemand numéro DE-GM   80204.   372, on utilise une bande de matière synthétique 1, dans laquelle est noyé un fil de résistance 2 posé en méandres. Dans le cas de l'exemple de réalisation qui est illustré par la figure 1 des dessins ci-annexés, la largeur de la bande de matière synthétique 1 est égale à la largeur des méandres que forme le fil de résistance 2 et l'épaisseur de la bande correspond au diamètre du fil. 



   Dans le cas de la forme de réalisation qui est illustrée par la figure 2 des dessins ci-annexés, la largeur de la bande de matière synthétique 1 est inférieure à la largeur des méandres que forme le fil de résistance 2, de telle sorte que les extrémités 3 des 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 7> 

 méandres ressortent aux cotes de la bande de matière   synthétique   1. Afin qu'il y ait suffisamment de matière pour la formation du joint soudé, l'épaisseur de la bande de matière synthétique 1 est supérieure au diamètre du fil de résistance 2. Au cours de l'opération de soudage, la matière de la bande de matière synthétique 1, sous l'effet de la pression, s'écoule vers les deux 
 EMI7.1 
 oit c cotés de la bande et remplit complètement les creux existant entre les extrémités 3 des méandres que forme le fil de résistance. 



   On expliquera ci-après, de façon détaillée, en se référant à la figure 3 des dessins ci-annexés, comment on peut fabriquer une bande chauffante telle que celle qui est représentée sur la figure 2. On pose sur une planche 4 deux rangées de pointes 5 prévues à égale distance l'une de l'autre. Entre les rangées de pointes, on pose tout d'abord une bande de matière synthétique la de longueur telle que le fil de résistance 2 en ressorte aux deux extrémités. On fait passer le-il de résistance 2 autour des pointes 5 de telle façon qu'il suive une allure sinueuse dont les différents méandres se trouvent à égale distance l''un de l'autre. 



  On pose sur les méandres de fil une bande de matière synthétique   Ib   dont les dimensions correspondent exactement à celles de la bande de matière synthétique la, et une pression uniforme est exercée sur le tout ainsi formé (voir flèches sur la figure 3). En appliquant une tension aux extrémités du fil de résistance 2, on chauffe progressivement ce fil, qui   s', enfonce   alors dans les bandes de matière synthétique la et lb. L'opération de soudage est poursuivie   jusqu''à   ce que les bandes de matière synthétique la et lb soient fixées l'une à   l'!, au-   tre par le soudage. La bande achevée est alors retirée des pointes 5 et elle peut âtre utilisée à la fabrication d'un raccord soudé de manchon. 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 8> 

 



   Si l'on désire fabriquer de plus courtes bandes chauffantes, par exemple pour le raccord par manchon de tuyaux de diamètre relativement faible, on n'utilise les pointes 5 que sur une longueur déterminée. 



   La distance comprise entre les différents méandres nest déterminée par la distance qui sépare les pointes 5   D'une   de   l'autre.   La distance comprise entre les différents méandres de la bande chauffante est avan-   tageusement,   selon le diamètre du fil de résistance 2, comprise entre 3 et 8 mm. 



   La largeur des méandres est avantageusement, selon le diamètre du fil de résistance 2, comprise entre 20 et 60 mm. 



   La bande chauffante qui est fabriquée selon la présente invention peut être facilement manipulée, c'est-à-dire qu'elle peut être facilement transportée et posée autour de L'enveloppe externe du tuyau, et il est sur que la distance comprise entre les différents méandres ne se modifiera pas. 



   Les figures 4 et 5 des dessins ci-annexés illustrent un exemple d'utilisation d'une bande pouvant être chauffée. 



   Sur ces figures, on a représenté en 7 l'enveloppe interne du tuyau, dans laquelle un agent est transporté, enveloppe interne qui est avantageusement faite d'acier ; l'isolant de mousse de polyuréthane du tuyau de canalisation isolé de la chaleur est représenté en 8 et l'enveloppe externe entourant   l'isolant,   enveloppe qui est avantageusement en polyéthylène, est représentée en 9. En dessous du joint à recouvrement du manchon 10 se trouve l'élément profilé en T 11. Les nombres de référence 12 et le nombre de référence 13 désignent respectivement les joints soudés périphériques et le joint soudé longitudinal qui se trouvent dans la zone du joint à recouvrement. Le nombre de référence 14 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 9> 

 désigne la masse de polyuréthane qui est produite après la fabrication du manchon de raccord. 



   Pour fabriquer le manchon de raccord qui est représenté sur les figures 4 et 5 des dessins ciannexés, on procède de la manière indiquée ci-après :
A l'aide d'un outil convenable, on creuse tout d'abord un évidement périphérique 15 dans l'extrémité de l'enveloppe externe 9. Dans la zone de l'évidement périphérique 15, on forme ensuite, par exemple à l'aide d'une scie   égoïne,   une rainure longitudinale 16 qui suit la direction de l'enveloppe interne 7 du tuyau, rainure dont la profondeur correspond au moins à la hauteur du pied de l'élément profilé en T 11. Après avoir effectué ces opérations préparatoires, on fixe l'une à 1autre, par soudage, les extrémités des enveloppes internes 7 des tuyaux (voir tracé 17 sur la figure 4) et l'on introduit l'élément profilé en T 11 dans les rainures 16.

   Aux endroits où doivent se trouver les joints périphériques 12, on pose alors un fil chauffant d'allure sinueuse, qui n'est pas représenté dans le dessin. La bande 10 destinée à former le manchon est ensuite enroulée à l'endroit du raccord, la zone de chevauchement de ses bords se trouvant au-dessus de l'élément profilé en T 11. Dans la zone du joint soudé longitudinal 13 également, on pose un fil chauffant d'allure sinueuse. Après le montage du dispositif de tension-comme il est décrit dans le modèle d'utilité allemand numéro DE-GM 8. 204. 372-on fait passer le courant chauffant, la matière synthétique qui se trouve dans les zones des joints soudés 12 et 13 devenant de ce fait liquide et le soudage étant ainsi effectué. 



   Par une ouverture 18, on vérifie alors l'étanchéité de l'espace interne comprise entre l'enveloppe interne et la bande 10 constituant le manchon de matière synthétique et, éventuellement, on parfait 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 10> 

 le soudage. Par cette même ouverture 18, qui peut éventuellement être agrandie, on introduit alors les composants liquides de la matière expansée, et la masse de matière expansée 14 est ainsi produite à l'endroit même où elle doit se trouver.

   The present invention relates to an electrically heatable strip intended for the manufacture of a pipe coupling sleeve of heat insulated pipes, which have an internal envelope, in which an agent is transported, a thermal insulation layer formed by expanded synthetic material, which surrounds the internal envelope, and an external envelope made of synthetic material, the ends not carrying expanded material of the internal envelopes of two sections of pipe to be fixed to each other being fixed one to the other by welding, the connection point being covered with a sleeve placed on the ends of the external envelopes, and the annular space between the sleeve and the internal envelopes being filled with expanded material,

   the sleeve body being formed by a strip of synthetic material the ends of which are superimposed above the place of assembly, strip of synthetic material which is fixed by welding both at the ends of the outer casings of the pipes and following the joint to recovery.



   There is already a coupling sleeve, which is the subject of the German utility model number DE-GM 802040372, in which the fixing by welding of the sleeve body to the ends of the outer casings of the pipes and the fixing by welding of the strip of synthetic material in the overlapping area of its edges are made by means of a strip which can be electrically heated. The strip consists of a resistance wire which has been given a sinuous appearance, the various meanders of which are held in place by an adhesive strip. According to another particular feature, the strip formed from the sinuous-looking resistance wire is fixed by heat treatment in the marginal zones of the strip of synthetic material.

 <Desc / Clms Page number 3>

 



   The disadvantage of this process is that, when it comes to connecting large pipes, the diameter of the resistance wire must be chosen so large that there is a risk of not being fixed by welding. from the sleeve body to the ends of the outer casings of the pipes, in particular in the area of overlap of the edges of the strip of synthetic material. To this is further added by virtue of the use of the adhesive strip, a foreign material is introduced into the welded joint, which also has the effect of hindering the fixing by perfect welding of the neighboring layers one to the other. other.



  With regard to large diameter pipes, fixing by heat treatment has the particular disadvantage that the strip, given the large diameter of the wire, becomes difficult to handle.



     It is for the reasons which have just been explained that the present invention aims to provide a heating strip which makes it possible to obtain, by resistance heating, an impeccable weld fixation, free of shrinkage.



   This object is achieved, according to the present invention, by the fact that a resistance wire having a sinuous appearance is embedded in a strip of synthetic material, the distance between the various meanders formed by the resistance wire being kept constant. Because the resistance wire is embedded in a strip of synthetic material,

   a sufficient quantity of synthetic material is available for filling the hollow spaces which arise between the layers to be fixed to each other by weldingo In this way a fixing is obtained by welding of synthetic material which is characterized both by its tightness water only by its gas tightness. The best results will be obtained if the cross-section

 <Desc / Clms Page number 4>

 dirty of the strip of synthetic material is at least equal to the cross section of a meander of the wire.



  In this way, it is certain that it will no longer be able to form recesses. According to another particular feature of the present invention, the width of the strip of synthetic material will be at least equal to the width of a meander of the wire and the thickness of the strip of synthetic material will correspond at least to the diameter of the wire of resistance. In such a case, all the meanders formed by the resistance wire are completely embedded in the strip of synthetic material. According to an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the width of the strip is less than the width of a meander and the thickness of the strip is greater than the diameter of the resistance wire.

   During the welding operation, the softened material of the strip of synthetic material will, under the effect of the pressure exerted, be pressed in the free spaces existing between the meanders and this will ensure good welding of the joint. As the material for manufacturing the strip of synthetic material, it is advantageous to use the same material as that of which the outer casing of the heat insulated pipe and the body of the sleeve are made. For example, if the outer casing and the body of the sleeve are made of polyethylene, the strip of synthetic material will also be made of polyethylene.



   The present invention further relates to a method of manufacturing a strip intended for fixing
 EMI4.1
 tion'by welding a sleeve to the outer casings of heat insulated pipe pipes this process, the resistance wire having a sinuous appearance is pressed, in the heated state, in the strip of synthetic material.

   According to an embodiment characteristic of the method which is the subject of the present invention, a resistance wire is first wound in

 <Desc / Clms Page number 5>

 meanders, a strip of synthetic material is placed on the meanders so that the two ends of the meanders remain uncovered, the resistance wire is heated by passage of electric current and the strip of synthetic material is pressed on the meanders, these thus sinking into the strip of synthetic material. This process is particularly suitable for the production of prefabricated lengths. Since the external diameters of the sections of conduits to be connected to each other are limited to a relatively small number of dimensions, this type of manufacturing can compete with continuous manufacturing.



   The meanders are advantageously placed between two identical strips of synthetic material and the two strips are assembled into a single strip by welding under the effect of the heating of the wire.



   The heatable strip which is the subject of the present invention can be used very particularly advantageously when it is a connecting sleeve in the case of which there is provided, below the lap joint, a grab bar which is applied to the ends of the outer casings of the pipes.



   It has been observed that in cases where there is a large distance between the ends of the outer casings of the pipes or in cases where a material of relatively low rigidity is used, correct and precise welding of the longitudinal joint cannot be obtained only for a relatively high expense.



   Thanks to the support bar, the lap joint can be welded so as to be liquid-tight, without this requiring any particularly high expense. The support bar is used to provide the necessary back pressure during the execution of the operation.

 <Desc / Clms Page number 6>

 welding ration. It is particularly advantageous that this bar is presented in the form of a T-shaped element, which is, advantageously also, made of thin tolu. This T-shaped element is light, but it is however of sufficient rigidity to be able to resist at the pressure exerted on it during the welding operation 0 The support bar, as well as the sleeve, are located in an annular recess formed in the ends of the outer envelopes.

   This has the advantage that there is no increase in diameter with respect to the external diameter of the external envelope in the region of the connector formed by the sleeve.



  In this way, no shearing force can act in the event of displacement in the ground. The base of the T-shaped element is in a longitudinal groove which is provided in the area of the recess.



   The present inven-tion will be explained below in more detail with the aid of embodiments thereof which are illustrated by the schematic drawings appended to this memo.



   To manufacture a coupling sleeve such as that which is the subject of the German utility model number DE-GM 80204. 372, a strip of synthetic material 1 is used, in which is embedded a resistance wire 2 laid in meanders. In the case of the exemplary embodiment which is illustrated by FIG. 1 of the accompanying drawings, the width of the strip of synthetic material 1 is equal to the width of the meanders formed by the resistance wire 2 and the thickness of the strip corresponds to the diameter of the wire.



   In the case of the embodiment which is illustrated in FIG. 2 of the accompanying drawings, the width of the strip of synthetic material 1 is less than the width of the meanders formed by the resistance wire 2, so that the ends 3 of

 <Desc / Clms Page number 7>

 meanders protrude at the sides of the strip of synthetic material 1. In order that there is sufficient material for the formation of the welded joint, the thickness of the strip of synthetic material 1 is greater than the diameter of the resistance wire 2. During of the welding operation, the material of the plastic strip 1, under the effect of the pressure, flows towards the two
 EMI7.1
 oit c sides of the strip and completely fills the hollows existing between the ends 3 of the meanders that form the resistance wire.



   We will explain below, in detail, with reference to Figure 3 of the accompanying drawings, how we can manufacture a heating strip such as that shown in Figure 2. We put on a board 4 two rows of points 5 provided at equal distance from each other. Between the rows of points, a strip of synthetic material 1a of length is first laid such that the resistance wire 2 comes out at the two ends. We pass the resistance wire 2 around the points 5 so that it follows a sinuous shape whose different meanders are equidistant from each other.



  A strip of synthetic material Ib is placed on the meanders of wire, the dimensions of which exactly correspond to those of the strip of synthetic material la, and a uniform pressure is exerted on the whole thus formed (see arrows in FIG. 3). By applying a voltage to the ends of the resistance wire 2, this wire is gradually heated, which then sinks into the strips of synthetic material 1a and 1b. The welding operation is continued until the strips of synthetic material 1a and 1b are fixed to one another, by welding. The completed strip is then removed from the tips 5 and can be used in the manufacture of a welded sleeve fitting.

 <Desc / Clms Page number 8>

 



   If it is desired to manufacture shorter heating bands, for example for the connection by a sleeve of relatively small diameter pipes, the tips 5 are only used over a determined length.



   The distance between the different meanders is determined by the distance between the tips 5 of one another. The distance between the different meanders of the heating strip is advantageously, depending on the diameter of the resistance wire 2, between 3 and 8 mm.



   The width of the meanders is advantageously, depending on the diameter of the resistance wire 2, between 20 and 60 mm.



   The heating strip which is produced according to the present invention can be easily handled, i.e. it can be easily transported and laid around the outer casing of the pipe, and it is certain that the distance between the different meanders will not change.



   Figures 4 and 5 of the accompanying drawings illustrate an example of the use of a heatable strip.



   In these figures, 7 shows the internal envelope of the pipe, in which an agent is transported, an internal envelope which is advantageously made of steel; the polyurethane foam insulation of the heat insulating pipe is shown in 8 and the outer envelope surrounding the insulation, an envelope which is advantageously made of polyethylene, is shown in 9. Below the lap joint of the sleeve 10 there is the T-shaped element 11. The reference numbers 12 and the reference number 13 respectively designate the peripheral welded joints and the longitudinal welded joint which are located in the area of the overlapping joint. The reference number 14

 <Desc / Clms Page number 9>

 denotes the mass of polyurethane which is produced after the manufacture of the coupling sleeve.



   To make the coupling sleeve which is shown in Figures 4 and 5 of the attached drawings, the procedure is as follows:
Using a suitable tool, a peripheral recess 15 is first hollowed out in the end of the outer casing 9. In the zone of the peripheral recess 15, then formed, for example at the using a handsaw, a longitudinal groove 16 which follows the direction of the inner casing 7 of the pipe, a groove whose depth corresponds at least to the height of the foot of the T-shaped element 11. After carrying out these operations preparatory, the ends of the inner casings 7 of the pipes are fixed to one another by welding (see trace 17 in FIG. 4) and the T-shaped element 11 is introduced into the grooves 16.

   At the places where the peripheral seals 12 must be, a heating wire with a sinuous appearance is then placed, which is not shown in the drawing. The strip 10 intended to form the sleeve is then wound at the location of the connector, the zone of overlapping of its edges being above the T-shaped element 11. Also in the zone of the longitudinal welded joint 13, it is lays a curvy-looking heating wire. After mounting the tensioning device - as described in the German utility model number DE-GM 8. 204. 372 - the heating current, the synthetic material which is in the areas of the welded joints 12 and 13 thereby becoming liquid and the welding is thus carried out.



   Through an opening 18, the tightness of the internal space between the internal envelope and the strip 10 constituting the plastic sleeve is then checked and, if necessary, perfect

 <Desc / Clms Page number 10>

 welding. Through this same opening 18, which can optionally be enlarged, the liquid components of the expanded material are then introduced, and the mass of expanded material 14 is thus produced at the very place where it must be located.
