Abstract

The speed of rotation of a welded tube is slowed down by an optical-magnetic device or by a contact, in a plant for coating tubes by the extrusion of a strip of thermoplastic material, so that the tension on the strip is diminished at the extrusion nozzle, and the thickness of the coating above the welded seam is the same as that on the same as that on the remainder of the outer surface of the tube. The additional thickness of the extruded strip corresponds to the point where the weld presents itself for the weld presents itself for the winding on, i.e. at the moment when the slowing down is commanded by the signal acting directly on the rollers driving the tube. Used to make possible the application of a coating of extruded material if minimal thickness on to the welded pipe, whilst ensuring at the same time that the zone covering the welded seam has the same thickness as the coating on the remainder of the circumference of the pipe.

Description

L'objet de l'invention concerne un dispositif de régulation pour le revêtement des tubes par banderolage extrudé. The object of the invention relates to a regulating device for coating the tubes by extruded wrapping.

Il a pour but d'obtenir une épaisseur égale de revêtement sur le corps du tube et sur le bossage formant surépaisseur au droit de la soudure longitudinale de lélément tubulaire récepteur. Its purpose is to obtain an equal coating thickness on the body of the tube and on the boss forming additional thickness in line with the longitudinal weld of the receiving tubular element.

Les tubes de grand diamètre en particulier sont porteurs d'une soudure apparente en fonction du procédé utilisé pour leur fabrication. Il s'en suit que par fluage du polyéthylène posé à chaud partant d'une extrudeuse, l'épaisseur du revêtement du sommet de la soudure est inférieure à celle obtenue sur le corps du tube. Large diameter tubes in particular carry an apparent weld depending on the process used for their manufacture. It follows that by creep of polyethylene laid hot from an extruder, the thickness of the coating of the top of the weld is less than that obtained on the body of the tube.

On doit pour l'efficacité de la protection, obtenir le minimum d'épaisseur imposée par les normes, sur toute: la périphérie du tube. On était alors dans l'obligation d'augmenter lwépaisseur du revêtement sur l'ensemble du tube, ce qui augmentait le prix de revient et mettait dans l'obligation d'utiliser une quantité importante de matière première, sans utilité autre que maintenir l'épaisseur désirée sur le bossage seulement. For the effectiveness of the protection, we must obtain the minimum thickness imposed by the standards, on all: the periphery of the tube. We were then obliged to increase the thickness of the coating on the entire tube, which increased the cost price and put us in the obligation to use a large quantity of raw material, of no use other than maintaining the desired thickness on the boss only.

Pour évitez cette perte de matière première, on a pensé alors à intercaler entre l'extrudeuse et le tube, un appareil à vitesse variable de déroulement ralentissant sa vitesse de rotation afin d'obtenir une surépaisseur au droit de la soudure uniquement. To avoid this loss of raw material, we then thought of interposing between the extruder and the tube, a device with variable speed of unwinding slowing down its speed of rotation in order to obtain an additional thickness in line with the weld only.

Mais il était nécessaire d'avoir un double réglage et des multiples commandes pour synchroniser les vitesses de rotation du tube du dérouleur et du point de ralentissement au droit de la soudure pour obtenir une surépaisseur par secteur délimité.  But it was necessary to have a double adjustment and multiple controls to synchronize the rotational speeds of the unwinder tube and the deceleration point at the right of the weld to obtain an additional thickness by delimited sector.

Le dispositif suivant linvention supprime ces inconvénients et permet d'utiliser les appareillages courants, assurant l'enrobage direct de la banderole de matière synthétique sortant de la filière sur le tube chauffé, se déplaçant suivant une vitesse linéaire pré-réglée en même temps qu'il effectue un mouvement de rotation sur lui meme sur le convoyeur.  The device according to the invention eliminates these drawbacks and makes it possible to use current equipment, ensuring the direct coating of the streamer of synthetic material leaving the die on the heated tube, moving according to a linear speed preset at the same time as it performs a rotational movement on itself on the conveyor.

Il consiste à diminuer la vitesse de rotation du tube au point où se présente la soudure au contact de la banderole sortant de l'extrudeuse afin d'obtenir une surépaisseur générée par la différence de tension d'enroulement provoquant une surépaisseur positionnée avec synchronisme au point désiré. It consists in reducing the speed of rotation of the tube at the point where the weld is in contact with the banner leaving the extruder in order to obtain an additional thickness generated by the difference in winding tension causing an additional thickness positioned with synchronism at the point. longed for.

Sur les dessins annexés donnés à titre d'exemple non limitatif d'une des formes de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention
La figure 3 représente schématiquement le dispositif dans son ensemble.
In the accompanying drawings given by way of nonlimiting example of one of the embodiments of the subject of the invention
Figure 3 shows schematically the device as a whole.

Les figures 1 et 2 montrent comparativement les épaisseurs obtenues. Figures 1 and 2 show comparatively the thicknesses obtained.

La figure 4 représente l'augmentation driépaisseur du revêtement obtenu. FIG. 4 represents the increase in thickness of the coating obtained.

Le dispositif crée par un procédé simplifié, une suré- paisseur de revêtement 3 lorsque la soudure 2 se présente fig 2 alors que le film de polyéthylène extrudé par une filière plate donnant une certaine épaisseur au film et que le tube sur lequel s'enroule le film pour former le revêtement, tourne à une vitesse supérieure à la vitesse de sorite du film, créant ainsi un étirement uniforme sur le corps du tube. The device creates, by a simplified process, an additional coating 3 when the weld 2 is shown in fig 2 while the polyethylene film extruded by a flat die giving a certain thickness to the film and the tube on which the film is wound. film to form the coating, rotates at a speed higher than the exit speed of the film, thus creating a uniform stretch over the body of the tube.

Cette élongation s'accroit encore lorsqu'elle rencontre la soudure 2 qui la surtend en un secteur de recouvrement 1. This elongation is further increased when it meets the weld 2 which overloads it into a covering sector 1.

Cette réduction d'épaisseur 1 est aggravée par le fluage du polyétylène posé à chaud sur la masse additionnelle créée par la soudure qui forme accumulateur de chaleur. This reduction in thickness 1 is aggravated by the creep of the polyethylene laid hot on the additional mass created by the weld which forms a heat accumulator.

Suivant le procédé fig 2, lwépaisseur du polyéthylène de revêtement posée au somment de la soudure est supérieure à celle posée sur le corps du tube. Cette surépaisseur 3 est obtenue par le ralentissement de la vitesse de rotation du tube 4 fig 3, lorsque la soudure 5 se présente à l'enroulement de telle sorte que le film n'étant plus étiré, forme une couche plus épaisse à chaque passage de la soudure. According to the process in fig 2, the thickness of the coating polyethylene placed at the top of the weld is greater than that laid on the body of the tube. This extra thickness 3 is obtained by slowing down the speed of rotation of the tube 4 fig 3, when the weld 5 is presented to the winding so that the film is no longer stretched, forms a thicker layer with each pass of the welding.

Le tube avance sur son chariot 6 en même temps que les galets moteurs 7, 8 lui font subir une rotation sur lui même. The tube advances on its carriage 6 at the same time as the drive rollers 7, 8 make it undergo a rotation on itself.

A la sortie de la filière 9, le film à une épaisseur réduite sur le tube par l'étirement du secteur 10 provoqué par la vitesse de rotation du tube 4 supérieure à la vitesse du film à la sortie de la filière. At the exit from the die 9, the film has a reduced thickness on the tube by the stretching of the sector 10 caused by the speed of rotation of the tube 4 greater than the speed of the film at the exit from the die.

On détecte la soudure 5 du tube à chaque tour du tube par un procédé optique ou magnétique Il par contact ou tout autre. The weld 5 of the tube is detected at each turn of the tube by an optical or magnetic method II by contact or any other.

L'appareil détecteur 11 commande un ralentissement de l;-vitesse du tube. Le film de polyéthylène 10 n'étant plus étiré suivant les besoins, s'épaissit 3 et on arrive ainsi avec les couches de polyéthylène superposées à réaliser un revêtement plus épais sur une zone de quelques dizaines de centimètres au lieu d'enrober tout le tube par une surépaisseur inutile sur: la totalité de la périphérie. The detector apparatus 11 controls a slowing down of the speed of the tube. The polyethylene film 10 is no longer stretched as needed, thickens 3 and we thus arrive with the superimposed layers of polyethylene to make a thicker coating over an area of a few tens of centimeters instead of coating the entire tube by an unnecessary extra thickness on: the entire periphery.

On utilise la tension combinée avec le fluage pour avoir sur le secteur 12, fig 4 des épaisseurs égales aux points 13, 14, 15. One uses the tension combined with the creep to have on the sector 12, fig 4 thicknesses equal to the points 13, 14, 15.

Pour d'autres tubes avec des soudures plus saillantes, plus ou moins chauffées sur lesquelles on constatera un fluage du polyéthylène plus ou moins important d'où découlera une différence d'épaisseur entre le corps et la soudure, en faisant varier un ou plusieurs des principaux paramètres qui influent à savoir d'abord la différence entre la vitesse de sortie du film extrudé et la vitesse de rotation du tube donnant une différence d'épaisseur du film. For other tubes with more salient, more or less heated welds on which there will be a more or less significant creep of the polyethylene from which will result a difference in thickness between the body and the weld, by varying one or more of the main parameters which influence first knowing the difference between the speed of exit of the extruded film and the speed of rotation of the tube giving a difference in film thickness.

Ensuite le ralentissement de la vitesse de rotation du tube plus ou moins prononcé, ce qui conditionne l'-épaississe- ment du film pendant le ralentissement. Then the slowing down of the more or less pronounced tube rotation speed, which conditions the thickening of the film during the slowing down.

Enfin le nombre de recouvrement de polyéthylène plus ou moins élevé. Finally the number of polyethylene cover more or less high.

En faisant varier ces trois paramètres, en tenant compte de la vitesse de sortie de la filière 9, de la vitesse de rotation du tube 4 et de son avancement, on obtient le résultat désiré. On supprime tout appareillage intermédiaire entre la filière et le tube. By varying these three parameters, taking into account the exit speed of the die 9, the speed of rotation of the tube 4 and its advance, the desired result is obtained. We remove any intermediate equipment between the die and the tube.

Toutefois les formes, dimensions et dispositions des différents éléments, pourront varier dans la limite des équivalents comme d'ailleurs les matières utilisées pour leur fabrication, sans changer pour cela la conception générale de l'invention qui vient d'être décrite.  However, the shapes, dimensions and arrangements of the various elements may vary within the limit of the equivalents, as moreover the materials used for their manufacture, without thereby changing the general conception of the invention which has just been described.
