Description

  The present invention relates to a pipe repair tool for sealing and repairing a leakage portion of a pipe.

Conventionally, a fastener provided with a band surrounding the outer periphery of a tubular or rod-like object to be fastened is known (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In such a fastener, a bolt connected to one end portion in the longitudinal direction of the band is inserted into the opening of a protruding piece projecting radially outward from the other end portion in the longitudinal direction of the band. The fastener is tightened. Further, as a technique for preventing leakage from the outer wall surface of the pipe, a contact member (for example, a plate-like rubber) that contacts the leakage portion is disposed between the band and the outer wall surface of the pipe, and the band is tightened. Thus, a technique for repairing the pipe leakage by pressing the contact member against the leakage portion is known.

Next, the pipe repair tool 1 is prepared, the band member 2 is wound around the outer peripheral surface 20a of the pipe 20, and the rubber plate 21 is held from the outside. That is, the rubber plate 21 covering the leaking part P is sandwiched between the outer peripheral surface 20 a of the pipe 20 and the band member 2. Subsequently, the bolt member 3 formed on the one end 2a side of the band member 2 is inserted through the opening 5a of the fixing plate 5 provided on the other end 2b side.

  Then, the nut 9 is screwed into the bolt member 3 protruding outward from the fixing plate 5. Here, the nut 9 can be tightened and the end surface of the nut 9 can be brought into contact with the outer surface of the fixing plate 5, so that the tension force P in the tangential direction L 3 of the outer peripheral surface 20 a of the pipe 20 can be applied to the bolt member 3. In this way, by tightening the band member 2 connected to the bolt member 3, the rubber plate 21 is pressed against the outer peripheral surface 20a of the pipe 20, the leakage portion P is sealed, and the pipe is repaired. Further, in the tightened state of the pipe repair tool 1, the band member 2 contacts the outer peripheral surface 20a over substantially the entire circumference of the outer peripheral surface 20a of the pipe 20 (except for the portion where the rubber plate 21 is disposed).
