Definitions

  • the subject of the invention is a seal intended for more particularly to be interposed between adjacent faces of two precast concrete elements such as segments constituting a tunnel lining, but can generally be applied to sealing between two rigid parts of any kind.
  • seals made of compressible material which should normally resist a certain pressure difference between the lower and upper surfaces, for example a certain overpressure external, that is to say acting on the upper surface, in particular when the tunnel is located below the level of the water table.
  • the profile and cross-sectional dimensions of the gasket, as well as the characteristics of the material from which it is made, are determined so that the packing, after the elements have been put in place, is subjected to a degree of compression capable of ensuring sealing against the pressure difference, between the lower and upper surfaces, at which can be subjected to the elements and for example against the pressure of water coming from outside.
  • the shaped seal can be chosen in a wide range of possibilities but, according to a preferred embodiment, it has a shaped gasket, connected so waterproof to the seals of the side face seals and comprising an internal fixing part on said zones adjacent to the angle and an external support part on an application face respective, and this external part defines a sealed cavity housing a water-swelling mass.
  • a seal according to the invention consisting of a profiled lining 1 made of elastically material deformable, in particular elastically compressible, extending along a longitudinal direction 6 and fixed, for example by gluing, on a support piece 11 for sealing between a lateral face 13, generally flat, of this and an application face 14, also generally planar, with an adjacent part 10.
  • the application face 14, opposite and substantially parallel to the lateral face 13, can be defined either directly through part 10, as illustrated in solid lines, or by another seal, for example according to the invention, tightly fixed on a side face of this part 10, as illustrated in phantom.
  • the detachable tab 4 and the groove 5 could themselves have a shape different from the trapezoid shape described, while remaining conjugated. For example, as illustrated in Figure 9, they could have a smaller rectangular cross section for tongue 4 than for groove 5 due to the presence of flat recesses 41, 42, 43, the tongue 4 flush with the external face 32 of the filling by a large side of the rectangle while the other large side of it would be turned towards the internal part 2 of the lining 1; we would however retain a disposition of the tear-off strips 44, 44 ', 45, 45' at the four corners of the rectangular section here of the tongue 4 and groove 5.
  • detachable tab 4 having a section transverse in T, housed inside a section groove 5 transverse rectangular, the detachable tab 4 having a leg 46 connected to the bottom 15 of the groove 5 by a strip 48 easily tearable and a bar 47 flush with the external face 32 of the gasket 1 and connected to the rest of it, in the immediate vicinity of this face 32, by two strips 49, 49 'also easily tearable; it is understood, however, that any other concept of trim and detachable tab could be chosen without so far from the scope of the invention.
  • the seal 8 comprises in each of these branches 9 an internal part 19 at all points identical to the part internal 2 of the linings 1 used, that is to say having like these last alternating ribs 25, each of which extends longitudinally a rib 21 and which connect to each other from one branch 9 to another, and grooves 26 each of which extends longitudinally a respective groove 12 which are connected also from one branch 9 to another.
  • the internal part 19 is thus engaged and retained in the groove 12 in the same way as the part internal 2 of the linings 1. If necessary, the internal part 19 of each branch 9 can be fixed for example by gluing inside the corresponding groove 12.
  • the part outer 20 of the lining 8 present at each branch 9 of the latter, in the coplanar extension of the external face 32 of the lining 1 respectively corresponding, an outer face 33 having a flat conformation when the lining 8 is not requested.
  • a hydro-swelling mass 37 for example made from the material distributed under the registered trademark "HYDROTITE", this mass 37 having a volume less than or at most equal to that of cavity 35 when isolated from moisture, but being suitable for presenting a volume greater than that of the cavity 35, in causing swelling of the lining 8 with elastic deformation of the membrane 36, when this water-swelling mass 37 receives humidity.
  • the membrane 36 can be designed to be easily tearable, pierceable or cutable, in which case the cavity 35 may be fully sealed, i.e. not communicating with the grooves 5 of the adjacent linings 1. Indeed, in this case, it is by tearing, piercing or cutting the membrane 36 which can be broken tightness of cavity 35 and let moisture gain mass water-swelling 37 to cause the aforementioned swelling thereof until sealed contact with the application face 14; he is no longer necessary, for this purpose, to detach the tongue 4 from one of the linings 1 adjacent.
