Hereinafter, for clearness purpose, the cable connected is used to describe and exemplify the present invention Each side.But, this citing is merely exemplary, it is possible to understand that and recognize this device Part and method may be used for various be directed to use with predilation method obtain seal or protection should With.
Fig. 1 shows the cross sectional view of elastic tube 10, and a stay tube is (such as accompanying drawing mark in Fig. 2 Remember 30 indications) elastic tube 10 will be inserted by scene.As it is shown in figure 1, elastic tube 10 wraps Include front end 11, the rear end 13 of opposed front end 11, and extend through the axial of elastic tube 10 Hole 12, axial hole 12 is configured to receive a stay tube 30.Elastic tube 10 also includes adjacent front end 11 and the part 14 of possibly tapered of rear end 13.Elastic tube 10 can be traditional sleeve pipe, example As, the sleeve pipe for prestrain shrinkage method and the sleeve pipe for push-in type method.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the axial of unexpanded or lax elastic tube 10 The diameter D1 in hole 12 is designed to the outer diameter D 2 less than the stay tube 30 that will insert, thus When a stay tube 30 inserts axial hole 12, elastic tube 10 is expanded, and when removing a stay tube 30 Time shrink and wrap substrate (such as, the cable of connection).
Fig. 2 shows that a stay tube 30 is inserted the process of elastic tube 10 by use traditional method Partial views in cross section.In the method, prop up stay tube 30 and insert bullet by a predilation equipment Property pipe 10, this predilation equipment consists essentially of the axle 26 coupled with actuator (not shown), Pressure applying means 20, and pressure applying means 20 is mechanically coupled to support (not shown) Multiple bars 25, this support is operably secured ground or other surfaces.In operation In, actuator acts on a stay tube 30 by axle 26 thus is drawn in from rear end by a stay tube 30 Elastic tube 10, pressure applying means 20 engages elastic tube 10 with in axially location in front end 11 Elastic tube 10, and pressure applying means 20 also is expected in response to causing stay tube 30 The power moved.For the ease of inserting, as the skilled personnel can understand, a stay tube 30 It is shown as also including having the guide head 32 of tapered profiles.
Specifically, with reference to Fig. 3, pressure applying means 20 includes multiple tabular pressure elements 23, the plurality of pressure elements 23 is radially arranged into one substantially continuous cylinder of common restriction Inner surface 21 (see Fig. 2), pressure applying means 20 also includes and multiple pressure elements 23 The turn 24 that connects of each radially outer end.Multiple pressure elements 23 each by footpath To being removably affixed, and internal surface of column 21 is in response on multiple pressure elements 23 Radially outer pressure is expansible.
But, due to the possibly tapered front end 11 of elastic tube 10 and multiple pressure elements 23 it Between interface constitute, the possibly tapered front end 11 of elastic tube 10 can not be at multiple pressure elements 23 The radially outer pressure of upper applying.Therefore, the bullet when a stay tube 30 is inserted into axial hole 12 Property pipe 10 front end 11 easily deformable, its may damage elastic tube 10.It is additionally, since many The internal surface of column 21 that individual pressure elements 23 limits can not be in response to the insertion of a stay tube 30 Expansion, the guide head 32 of a stay tube 30 cannot remove from the front end 11 of elastic tube 10, and And this scene predilation process cannot complete.
Fig. 4 shows and uses inciting somebody to action of an embodiment according to disclosed method to prop up a stay tube The partial views in cross section of the process of 30 elastic tubes 10 inserting Fig. 1.
First, coaxial with adapter 40 or approximation places elastic tube 10 coaxially.This position Put permissible, such as, by adapter 50, be kept, as described in more detail below.With An embodiment in the adapter 40 performing the method illustrates in figs. 5 and 6.As schemed Showing, adapter 40 includes end difference 41, and end difference 41 is by radially-outer surface 42 with from this footpath The plane 43 that exterior surface 42 extends radially outwardly limits.Adapter 40 also includes axial hole 44, lax axial hole 44 has what the diameter with lax axial hole 12 was substantially the same Diameter, thus guide head 32 and a stay tube 30 can be by wherein releasing." substantially Identical " the meaning be axial hole 44 have slightly larger than or the diameter in slightly smaller than axial hole 12 Also it is feasible.Such as, the diameter in axial hole 44 relative to axial hole 12 diameter ± 20mm, ± 10mm, ± 5mm, ± 1mm etc..
Afterwards, the radially-outer surface 42 engaging adapter 40 limits with multiple pressure elements 23 The internal surface of column 21 of fixed pressure applying means 20.This operation is permissible, such as, real as follows Existing: multiple pressure elements 23 each on apply force radially so that multiple pressure The internal surface of column 21 that element 23 limits is expanded;Afterwards by the radially-outer surface of adapter 40 Within 42 are placed on internal surface of column 21;Then removing this force radially, result is, by Turn 24 in stretching tends to shrink, and the plurality of pressure elements 23 is by turn 24 footpath To inwardly driving, thus engage with the radially-outer surface 42 of adapter 40.
Then, prop up stay tube 30 and be inserted into the axle of elastic tube 10 from rear end 13 towards front end 11 To hole 12.Owing to the outer diameter D 2 of a stay tube is more than the diameter D1 in axial hole 12, supporting In the insertion process of pipe 30, the radial direction that elastic tube 10 is applied thereto at stay tube 30 to It is forced radial dilatation under the effect of external pressure.More specifically, this radial outward pressure force is applied in In the region that a stay tube 30 and guide head 32 arrive.When a stay tube 30 is in axial hole 12 During slip, between outer surface and the surface in axial hole 12 of a stay tube 30, produce friction. More specifically, exist in the frictional force gone up axially rearward, at elastic tube 10 on a stay tube 30 Upper existence is at the counteracting frictional force axially forwardly gone up.Thus the front end 11 of elastic tube 10 is supported Against the rear end 45 of adapter 40, the plane 43 of adapter 40 abuts against multiple pressure elements The plane 22 that 23 are limited.By this way, elastic tube 10 and adapter 40 are at axially quilt Location.
Interface between rear end 45 and the front end 11 of elastic tube 10 of adapter 40 is configured For making interface friction force sufficiently high, thus suitable before guide head 32 arrives adapter 40 Orchestration 40 can coextend with elastic tube 10.In other words, adapter 40 and elastic tube 10 Between the radial direction stiction of interface be applied to adapter 40 more than pressure applying means 20 Radially-outer surface 42 on radially inner power, thus the rear end 45 of adapter 40 and bullet Relative motion is not had to produce between the front end 11 of property pipe 10.Once guide head 32 is by elasticity Pipe 10 and arrive adapter 40, guide head 32 is between guide head 32 and adapter 40 Contact surface apply force radially in adapter 40.Thus, the radial direction appearance of adapter 40 Face 42 applies force radially in multiple pressure elements 23.In this way, multiple pressure elements 23 be forced to be moved radially outward and internal surface of column 21 expand to allow guide head 32 from Elastic tube 10 is pushed out.
Should be appreciated that between the rear end 45 of adapter 40 and the front end 11 of elastic tube 10 Interface friction can realize by selecting the suitable material of adapter 40 and elastic tube 10, The material of adapter 40 and elastic tube 10 has great friction coefficient when contacting with each other.Such as, Adapter 40 and elastic tube 10 can be by silicone rubber, EP rubbers (EPR), EPDM Rubber (EPDM) or any other material manufacture being suitable for.Preferably, adapter 40 Also include that the footpath extending back and terminating at the rear end 45 of adapter 40 from plane 43 is outside Surface 46, wherein, the diameter of this second radially-outer surface 46 is more than elastic tube 10 front end 11 Diameter, to guarantee the foot between the rear end 45 of adapter 40 and elastic tube 10 front end 11 Enough big contact surfaces, and then sufficiently large frictional force.
It should be noted that, predilation equipment can be to have different forms.Such as, multiple Pressure elements 23 each can by respective spring the most radially displaceable fix. Or, spring 24 can be by pneumatic or fluid power system or similar replacement.According to The Apparatus and method for of the disclosure can be used along with the predilation equipment being arbitrarily suitable for.
Preferably, before a stay tube 30 is inserted axial hole 12, lubricating layer is applied to The surface in axial hole 12 and the outer surface of a stay tube 30, thus a stay tube 30 can be by more Insert swimmingly.Further, this lubricating layer play axial hole 12 and cable surface to be sealed it Between the effect of sealant.In one example, lubricating layer can include fat, glue, oil or Any other material being suitable for of person.Advantageously, this lubricating layer has high viscosity, is greater than 3 ×105MPa s, thus this lubricating layer is not easy to flowing in operation, and can protect Hold the surface being uniformly distributed in axial hole 12.Thus, reduce or eliminate due to lubricating layer Uneven distribution and the risk of failure of insulation that causes.
The rear end 45 of adapter 40 illustrates in Figure 5, exemplarily, for annular body Form.But, adapter 40 is not limited to this structure.The rear end 45 of adapter 40 can have There are the outer surface being arbitrarily suitable for shape, such as, rectangle, hexagon, octagonal etc., as long as This structure can provide sufficiently large contact surface between the front end 11 of elastic tube 10 with Produce and be enough to overcome the stiction of the radially-inwardly power of pressure applying means 20.
Fig. 7 and Fig. 8 shows as placing adapter 40 and elastic tube 10 purpose coaxially, May be used for implementing an embodiment of the adapter 50 of the process described above.This is exemplary Adapter 50 include cylindrical outer surface 51 and axial hole 52 with allow predilation equipment axle 26 by wherein.Adapter 50 has the axial hole 12 of outer diameter D 3, D3 and elastic tube 10 Diameter and the diameter in axial hole 44 of adapter 40 be substantially the same, thus adapter 50 provide adapter 40 and elastic tube 10 when being positioned over adapter 40 and elastic tube 10 inside Between substantial co-axially align.Outside the meaning adapter 50 " being substantially the same " Footpath D3 have slightly larger than or the slightly smaller than axial hole 12 of elastic tube 10 and adapter 40 The diameter in axial hole 44 be also feasible.Such as, axial relative to elastic tube 10 of D3 Diameter ± the 10mm in the axial hole 44 of hole 12 and adapter 40, ± 5mm, ± 1mm Deng.
In operation, adapter is engaged during insertion when the guide head 32 of a stay tube 30 50 rear end time, adapter 50 the most upwardly, and is finally pushed out in axially forwardly side Adapter 40, it can be re-used adapter and elastic tube for connecting other.
As shown, adapter 50 also includes the flange 53 being positioned at its front end, this flange 53 Guarantee that adapter 50 is inserted into the degree of depth that axial hole 12 is predetermined.
It should be noted that, flange 53 not necessarily feature but optional feature, it is permissible Use when needed.It should also be noted that adapter 50 is shown as being placed on adaptation Inside the axial hole of device 40 and elastic tube 10.But, adapter 50 is not limited to this structure, Any other structure being suitable for also is feasible.Such as, adapter 50 can be elastic tube, It is around at least part of isometrical outer surface and at least part of the of adapter 40 of elastic tube 10 Two radially-outer surfaces 46 place (such as, be pushed on it), form close fit respectively.
Should be appreciated that and do not use adapter 50 and by coaxial with elastic tube 10 for adapter 40 It is also feasible that ground is placed.Such as, first adapter 40 is engaged with pressure applying means, And manually keep adapter 40 coaxial with elastic tube 10, then a stay tube 30 is inserted Elastic tube 10, removes manual holding force afterwards.Due in the insertion process of stay tube 30, Adapter 40 is stressed between pressure applying means 20 and elastic tube 10, elastic tube 10 With the co-axially align between adapter 40 can be kept.
In sum, employing according to an advantage of the Apparatus and method for of the disclosure is, sleeve pipe, Such as, the sleeve pipe for prestrain shrinkage method and the sleeve pipe for push-in type method can pass through Tradition predilation equipment is by on-the-spot predilation, and without the mould of these sleeve pipes is done any changing Dynamic.In other words, by using the Apparatus and method for according to the disclosure, for prestrain shrinkage The sleeve pipe of method and the sleeve pipe for push-in type method compatible at least two can apply sleeve pipe in base Method at the end.Thus according to the Apparatus and method for of the disclosure in the application to cost sensitivity Advantageous.
