本考案は、その外周面上に劣化識別層をそなえたガス用
ゴム管に関するものである。[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a gas rubber tube provided with a deterioration identification layer on its outer peripheral surface.
近年、ガス機器の安全性についての要求が高まるにつれ

全性の改善についての要望が高まり、これに対応すべく
ガス用ゴム管業界においては自主検査規格の確立やガス
用ゴム管の安全性改善に関する種々の提案をする等の努
力を払ってきた。In recent years, as demands for the safety of gas appliances have increased, there has also been an increasing demand for improvements in the safety of the gas rubber tubes used in these appliances.In response to this, the gas rubber tube industry has Efforts have been made to establish self-inspection standards and to make various proposals for improving the safety of gas rubber pipes.
か・る業界の努力によりガス用ゴム管の品質は向上して

ては劣化するが、か\る劣化の進行に伴ないゴム管の寿

スによる中毒事故や爆発事故といった悲惨な事態を招来
する。The quality of gas rubber pipes has improved through the efforts of the gas industry, but as long as rubber is the main material, it is difficult to avoid deterioration due to ozone and ultraviolet rays in the atmosphere, and sooner or later it will deteriorate. If the rubber tube continues to be used without realizing that it has reached the end of its lifespan due to the progress of deterioration, it will lead to tragic situations such as poisoning or explosion due to leaking gas.
しかるに、現在市販のガス用ゴム管は品質向上に伴なっ
て比較的長期の使用に耐えうるため、一般需要者が迂濶
にも取替時期の到来を見逃す場合があるうえ、一般には
オゾン劣化の進行を識別し難いといった難点がある。However, as the quality of gas rubber pipes currently on the market has improved, they can withstand relatively long-term use, so general users may carelessly miss the time to replace them, and they generally suffer from ozone deterioration. The problem is that it is difficult to discern the progress of the process.
本考案は斯る現状に鑑み、ガス用ゴム管の品質には何ん

劣化ゴム管の取替時期を判別しつる劣化識別層を該ゴム
管の外周面上にそなえたガス用ゴム管を提供するもので
ある。In view of the current situation, the present invention has been developed to provide a deterioration identification layer that does not affect the quality of gas rubber pipes in any way, and also allows general users to easily determine when to replace deteriorated rubber pipes. A rubber tube for gas is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the tube.

に着色されている。Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained with reference to an illustrated example. The gas rubber tube, the cross-sectional structure of which is shown in FIG. The rubber inner layer 1 is made of an ozone-resistant rubber compound consisting of either alone or blended with other suitable rubbers, or an ozone-resistant rubber compound blended with an ozone-resistant agent, and the rubber inner layer 1 is mainly made of, for example, chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSM). According to standards, the outer covering layer 2 is colored blue for city gas rubber pipes and orange for propane gas rubber pipes. ing.

劣化識別層3を設ける。According to the present invention, as shown in FIG. Over the course of
By adjusting the blending ratio of ozone-resistant rubber (for example, CSM, EPDM) or an ozone-resistant agent, a deterioration identification layer 3 made of a rubber compound whose ozone resistance is inferior to that of the rubber compound of the rubber tube body is provided.
劣化識別層3はかようにゴム管本体のゴム配合物より耐

に伴ない亀裂を生じ、これによりゴム管の取替時期の到

期に亀裂が発生したのではその役割を全うすることにな
らない。Since the deterioration identification layer 3 has lower ozone resistance than the rubber compound of the rubber tube body, cracks occur earlier than the rubber tube body due to ozone deterioration, and this generally indicates that it is time to replace the rubber tube. Although it is intended to make users aware of it, it will not fulfill its role if cracks occur too early.
それ故に、ゴム管本体が例えば耐用寿命が2年であると
するならば、前記劣化識別層3は1年ないし1.5年程
度でオゾン亀裂を生じるごとく適当に配合設計する必要
がある。Therefore, if the rubber tube main body has a useful life of 2 years, for example, the deterioration identification layer 3 needs to be appropriately designed to cause ozone cracking in about 1 to 1.5 years.
そのための配合例としては、ゴム管本体(外被層2、ま

物で構或する。As a compounding example for this purpose, the rubber tube main body (outer cover layer 2 or outer cover layer 2 and inner layer 1) is made of a blend of CSM and EPDM, while the deterioration identification layer 3 is made of CSM.
It is composed of a synthetic rubber such as SM and SBR, or a blend of natural rubber.
また、耐オゾン剤の配合量を減少させるか、耐オゾン剤
を全く配合しないゴム配合物により劣化識別層3を構或
することもできる。Furthermore, the deterioration identification layer 3 can be constructed by reducing the amount of the anti-ozone agent or by using a rubber compound that does not contain the anti-ozone agent at all.

It can also be provided on the entire outer peripheral surface of the.

。As explained above, the gas rubber pipe of the present invention does not contain an anti-ozone agent on a part of the outer peripheral surface of the rubber pipe over its entire length or on the entire peripheral surface of the rubber pipe. Alternatively, by adjusting the compounding ratio of ozone-resistant rubber, a deterioration discrimination layer made of a rubber compound with poor ozone resistance was provided, so that the discrimination layer was exposed to the atmosphere earlier than the main structure of the rubber pipe or the rubber layer. The rubber pipe itself deteriorates due to ozone and cracks occur, which makes general users aware that it is time to replace the rubber pipe while the rubber pipe body still has a sufficient service life. When a person notices a crack, avoid a dangerous situation where a gas leak is about to occur in the future, or a tragic accident such as a sudden poisoning or explosion due to leaking gas without noticing the crack. be able to.

に認識することができる。Note that while the outer cover layer 2 is blue or orange as described above, the deterioration identification layer 3 may be colored in a different color from the rubber layer located below it, such as by coloring it white. For example, since the different color of the lower layer rubber is exposed through the cracks generated in the identification layer 3, the occurrence of cracks can be recognized more reliably.
