Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for manufacturing a composite pipe for the conveyance of liquid or gaseous media in heated or cooled Condition where the composite pipe has at least one inner pipe made of plastic and one encasing it Has metal tube.
  • Such a manufacturing process for plastic-metal composite pipe is from DE-A1-29 23 544, DE-C1-34 32 944 and EP-A-0 127 127.
  • a metal band around a plastic tube shaped so that its in the longitudinal direction of the Band edges that run along the plastic pipe. In this state the band edges are together welded. It is assumed that the inside diameter of the metal pipe is larger than the outer diameter of the plastic inner tube. The differences in diameter are partly clear Are defined. It is also described that the metal pipe is reduced in diameter after welding, a connection between the two pipe materials manufacture. After this reduction process only the prerequisites for an adhesive connection of the two pipes.
  • DE-C-565 960 describes a machine for producing autogenously welded Pipes described in the case of a metal strip with angled strip edges a metal tube (without inner tube) is formed, the shaped Metal tape welded on its tape edges to form a longitudinal seam becomes.
  • the metal inlays of composite pipes are preferred thin-walled and the tube diameter and adapted to the purpose of the pipes.
  • the free forming of thin metal strips into pipes is because of the edge stresses that occur during molding generally known in the volume. So it is extraordinary difficult in the endless production of thin-walled pipes for guiding the belt edges ensure the welding process in the form that an absolutely optimal and constant welding result can be ensured.
  • the registration is based on the task to encase endless extruded plastic pipe, whereby a metal band by shaping the band edges closely adjacent to the plastic pipe in the longitudinal axis molded and welded gas-tight.
  • the longitudinal band edges of the metal band in front placing the same around the plastic inner tube angled. As a result, they are adjacent to each other Band edges essentially radially from the inner tube when the metal band is placed around the inner tube.
  • the method presented has the basic idea the plastic inner tube with a metal band to form a positive fit and by bending the Band edges reliable welding enable.
  • the plastic inner tube as a bending mandrel for forming the metal band Allows the use of very thin metal strips.
  • the Metal tube shape as well as the tolerances that occur are determined by the inner tube.
  • the non-positive shape according to the invention of the metal band around the inner tube become oxygen inclusions avoided the following Longitudinal seam welding has a disruptive effect, as does the adhesive bond between inner tube and metal jacket influence negatively.
  • the running in the longitudinal axis and according to the invention raised strip edges are used during welding firmly pressed together and can be used as a guide for the one in the middle, above the strip edge joint Serve welding head.
  • the tight-fitting deformation of the inner tube with the ones raised to the outside Belt edges also offer advantages in terms of improved Pipe edge guidance in a continuous process. This is an essential requirement to to be able to manufacture the pipe without problems, highly productively.
  • Preferably in the longitudinal direction of the pipe running belt edges with a profiling tool bent a height corresponding to the tape thickness.
  • the invention offers the advantage that on pipe calibration or reducing devices can be dispensed with can, because the composite plastic inner tube with the Metal jacket is welded to size and fit. Because the strip edge preparation according to the invention can the longitudinal seam welding of the metal pipe the plastic inner tube without an air gap. Further is a band trimming process, as is common usual, not necessary, because those guaranteed according to DIN Width tolerances for fine strips are for one trouble-free production process absolutely sufficient, with which the operational safety of the manufacturing plant is increased.
  • the metal pipe is after the longitudinal seam welding especially warm in the area of the weld. With when the weld seam cools down, it shrinks instead of. This helps keep the metal pipe is pulled non-positively onto the inner tube.
  • the tube combination Plastic metal is heated all around.
  • the adhesion promoter is activated and the bond between the two pipes lying close together from different materials takes place and will again through the centric shrinking process of the metal jacket favored.
  • the gluing process of the two pipes against each other is through the non-positive forming favored and by theshrinking process after the thermal treatment optimized.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a partially broken away plastic-metal composite pipe shown, while the figures 2 and 3 show cross sections of Fig. 4 a perspective view of the composite pipe after partial welding of the from the high standing Band edges of the metal tube formed Longitudinal seam.
  • the composite pipe has a plastic inner pipe 1 made of PE or VPE material, around which a metal band made of aluminum with angled band edges 3 to a metal tube 2 is formed.
  • the contiguous radially protruding band edges 3 are by means of a welding head 4 welded together.
  • the radial projection H of the band edges 3 (Fig. 2) the height of the weld seam can be determined (Fig. 3).
  • an outer tube 5 made of PE or XLPE material be extruded.
