Abstract

A repair bladder manufactured to meet the demands of small pipe rehabilitation.

The said bladder will be flexible as to navigate through clean-outs as well as 45 degree elbows and 90 degree elbows. The said bladder will still be able to stay firm enough to be able to be launched through clean-outs and pushed into place and keep its shape.
The bladder should also be of a flow-through design as to allow water to pass through. The bladder will also be made of a material that will not stick to cured resin. This bladder will also be reusable. The bladder will be made of gum rubber so as to allow the bladder to pull away from the repair.

The bladder will consist of two end caps made of aluminum or other light material. These caps will be joined by a non-stretching hose which will allow liquids to pass through. The extruded rubber sleeve is positioned over these ends and fastened. Air fittings are attached and harness receiving ends are attached.

Description

05/10/2000 23:58 9056975999 CA 02307711 2000-OS-10 PAGE 03 y Seeing how curre~rt repair bladders are large and cumbersome, This invention seeks to provide a transport device for carrying resin lmpregpated felt into place to repair pipeline that is ~ ' m r or r, mallet.
This bladder can easily be ppslaed into place by using a mini-carvers with sarness or it can be pulled in.

05/11/00 THU 10:55 [TX/RX NO 8974] [003 05/10/2000 23:58 9056975999 CA 02307711 2000-OS-10 PAGE 06 ~,~;~,CKGROZJ~TD Ol~ T,RE llVVENT~4N
Repairing underground conduit without digga.ag is known in the art, however There are pzoblems with conventional systems when trying to adapt them to small pipe repair.
t The first is that current bladders are large and would be unable to navigate around bends or corners. This bladder is small in diameter so that it can negotiate small pipe.
.Another drawback is that these reusable bladders are very rigid and would be unable to be launched thmugh a clean-out. 'I"his Bladder is very flexible and can easily negotiate deflections.
t If you do use a flexible bladder it won't hold its shape when trying to push it into place.
t One more problem is that when you introduce air into these conventional bladders they increase in diameter end this would cut down on the space to work and the view of the damaged pipe therefore limiting your capability to line-up the sleeve bridging the damage, This bladder will be able to accept a small amount of air so as to hold its shape without increasing its diameter.
Conventional repairs all need to be pulled into place requiring a nnulti-man crew. This bladder can be pushed into place.

By using gum rubber which always wants td return to its original size, it pops itself off the repair with n,o help fi»m an outer sleeve or releasing agent.
r As mentioned before if you use a section of full liner it is not firm enough to push into place, so by using a 2" gum rubber bladder air is introduced in a small amount to allow the bladder to become firm enough to be pushed but not enough to increase its diameter.

The hose connecting the end caps is made of a non stretch hose so that the Guzo Rubber can inflate outwards as opposed to length wise. This hose also acts as. a flow through tube allowing liquids to pass through the bladder.
