The optical fiber-containing metal tube unit is made by forming a metal tape as shown in Fig. 4, storing the optical fibers in the metal tube one after another during the forming process, and after welding the butt portions, reducing the diameter to increase the strength of the metal tube. It is manufactured by a winding process. During diameter reduction in this process, lubricating oil is generally used to reduce the frictional force that acts between the Al pipe and rolls or dies.

When manufacturing the metal tube mentioned above, the arc from the electrode becomes unstable and welding defects such as pinholes 3 may occur in the welded part 11 as shown in Figure 3. Lubricating oil has entered the defect, and this oil cannot be removed simply by cleaning the surface of the pipe 2a, so this area is
Even if attempts were made to repair using TIG welding, laser welding, etc., the lubricating oil would evaporate during welding, making it difficult to obtain a sound weld.

The present invention was obtained as a result of intensive research to solve these problems, and involves immersing the welded defective part of the metal tube in an ultrasonic cleaning tank and applying pressure to the metal tube from the outside. This is a method for cleaning a weld defective portion of a metal tube, which comprises cleaning the weld defective portion with ultrasonic waves by applying pressure or reducing the pressure inside the metal tube.

[Function] In the present invention, the weld defective part of the metal pipe is immersed in an ultrasonic cleaning tank and pressure is applied to the metal pipe from the outside of the metal pipe, or the pressure inside the metal pipe is reduced, so that the weld defective part can be overcome. By cleaning with sonic waves, lubricating oil that has seeped into pinholes etc. can be completely removed, and a sound welded part can be obtained by rewelding.

Ultrasonic oscillator output 600W, frequency 10~20KHz
As shown in FIG. 1, a bonded type vibrator is used as the vibrator, and an immersion type vibrator is used as shown in FIG. 2. In either case it is necessary to pressurize the tube from the outside or to reduce the pressure inside the tube. In other words, pinholes that occur in welds generally have a narrow, curved shape; for example, in the Al pipe weld mentioned above, they are usually about 10 μm in diameter, 2 to 3 mm in length, and have a depth that corresponds to the inner thickness of the pipe. There are pinholes,
By pressurizing or reducing the pressure, impurities such as oil that have entered the pinhole can be effectively, completely and reliably removed. In other words, by applying pressure from the outside of the tube or reducing the pressure inside the tube, the cleaning liquid enters the metal tube through the weld, thereby cleaning the oil in the pinhole. Pressure force is 1~
3Kg/cm 2 (gauge pressure), about 10mmHg (absolute pressure) in the case of reduced pressure is sufficient, and the number of cleaning times is sufficient.
Although trichlene or the like is generally used as a cleaning liquid, in the case of the above-mentioned Al tube containing optical fibers, it is desirable to use Freon, which does not dissolve the plastic coating layer of the optical fibers.

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, a cleaning tank 1a and a cover 5
After inserting the Al pipe 2a having a welding defect, for example a pinhole 3, between the seal part 4 and the cleaning tank 1a, the cleaning liquid 9 is poured into the cleaning tank 1a from the cleaning liquid piping 7, and the Al pipe 2a is inserted through the pressure piping 6 into the cleaning tank 1a. A pressure of 2 kg/cm 2 (gauge pressure) was applied to 2a from the outside. The cleaning liquid uses Freon, the seal part uses tetrafluoroethylene resin (trade name: Teflon), the cleaning tank is made of stainless steel, and a cooler (see figure) is used to keep the temperature inside the cleaning tank below 30℃. (not shown). In this state, an ultrasonic oscillator with an output of 600 W and a frequency of 15 KHz was driven to perform ultrasonic cleaning for 3 minutes using the adhesive type vibrator 8a. After cleaning, N 2 gas was flowed into the metal tube to evaporate the Freon that had entered the tube, and the pinhole was repaired by laser welding, resulting in a sound weld. On the other hand, when trying to perform laser welding after cleaning only the surface of the pipe with Freon as in the conventional method, the lubricating oil burns and smoke is generated, and the re-welded part does not come into close contact with the previously welded part, resulting in a sound welded part. I couldn't do it.
