Definitions

  • the invention relates to an induction connection sleeve for connecting by fusing plastic pipes, and to a production method for producing an induction connection sleeve of this type, and to a production method for producing a welded connection between two plastic pipes while using the induction connection sleeve.
  • WO 2007/128384 A2 discloses an induction connection sleeve in which two bush-shaped induction heating elements are embedded in a sleeve body, said induction heating elements on the internal shell surface thereof not being surrounded by the sleeve body and thus, configured directly receptacle portions for receiving connection portions of plastic pipes to be connected. If the plastic pipes to be connected are pushed into the sleeve body, the external skin of the plastic pipes bears directly on the internal shell surface of the induction heating elements.
  • This configuration of an induction connection sleeve has the disadvantage that the plastic pipe connects to the internal shell surface of the induction heating elements only to a limited extent.
  • An induction connection sleeve is known from JP2001208274A in which two induction heating elements that are configured in a bush-shaped manner are embedded in a sleeve body and surround receptacle portions for receiving connection portions of plastic pipes to be connected.
  • This configuration of an induction connection sleeve has the disadvantage that the induction heating elements in the production process of the induction connection sleeve can be positioned in the sleeve body only with great difficulty. When using an induction connection sleeve having an induction heating element that is not positioned so as to be centric, this can result in the receptacle portions when viewed across the circumference not being heated in a uniform manner.
  • the present invention is based on the object of achieving an induction connection sleeve which can be produced in a simple manner and offers a high degree of functional reliability. Moreover, a method for using an induction connection sleeve of this type is to be specified.
  • This object of the invention is achieved by an induction connection sleeve as claimed in claim 5 , and by the method for producing an induction connection sleeve as claimed in claim 13 , respectively, and by the method for producing a welded connection with the aid of the induction connection sleeve as claimed in claim 1 .
  • the method comprises the following method steps:
  • the following method step is additionally carried out: welding the two internal pipes of the double-walled plastic pipes.
  • the internal pipes can be welded separately and in a dedicated method step.
  • the internal pipes can have properties that are different from those of the external pipes.
  • the two internal pipes of the double-walled plastic pipes at the end side are welded by heating-element butt welding by means of a welding mirror. It is of advantage herein that a welded connection that is produced in such a manner between two plastic pipes has a high degree of strength, or a high degree of tightness, respectively.
  • an induction connection sleeve is configured for connecting by fusing plastic pipes.
  • the induction connection sleeve comprises
  • a sleeve body from an injection-molded thermoplastic plastics material, having a first and a second receptacle portion for receiving first and second connection portions of the plastic pipes to be connected, said receptacle portions being disposed in a mutually coaxial manner;
  • a first induction heating element which is configured in a bush-shaped manner and has recesses that are disposed in the circumference, said first induction heating element being embedded in the sleeve body, wherein the first induction heating element surrounds the first receptacle portion of the sleeve body;
  • the sleeve body comprises an internal part, said internal part configuring the two receptacle parts, and the induction heating elements being received on said internal part in such a manner that the recesses of the induction heating elements are penetrated by the internal part, said recesses on the external circumference thereof in the region of the induction heating elements terminating flush with the internal part.
  • the sleeve body moreover comprises an external part which is connected in a materially integral manner to the internal part and surrounds the external circumference of the induction heating elements, wherein the induction heating elements are entirely enclosed by the internal part and by the external part.
  • An advantage of the configuration of the induction connection sleeve according to the invention lies in that the production of the induction connection sleeve is facilitated by the specified construction of the latter, on account of which the dimensional accuracy of the induction connection sleeve is improved.
  • the induction heating element in the production process can be positioned in a simple and positionally accurate manner within the sleeve body. It can be achieved on account thereof that the induction heating elements that are configured in bush-shaped manner are positioned so as to be as precisely coaxial as possible with the two receptacle portions of the sleeve body, and that the induction connection sleeve has a high dimensional accuracy.
  • an induction connection sleeve of this type When an induction connection sleeve of this type is used for connecting two plastic pipes it can thus be achieved that the receptacle portions of the sleeve body when viewed across the circumference are uniformly heated and uniform fusing of the internal part of the sleeve body can thus be achieved.
  • a connection of two plastic pipes having the induction connection sleeve according to the invention has a high degree of strength and tightness, respectively.
  • the internal part of the sleeve body can be formed from a first plastics from the group of thermoplastic plastics which has a first melting point
  • the external part of the sleeve body can be formed from a second plastics, different from the first plastics, from the group of thermoplastic plastics which has a second melting point, wherein the melting point of the second plastics is higher than the melting point of the first plastics.
  • an adhesive agent layer is configured between the internal part and the external part. It is of advantage herein that on account thereof the internal part and the external part of the sleeve body can be fixedly interconnected and the sleeve body thus can have a high degree of strength.
  • a continuous receptacle portion having a cylindrical internal shell surface for receiving connection portions of the plastic pipes to be connected is configured on the internal part, wherein the first and the second receptacle portion are configured in the continuous receptacle portion.
  • an external shell surface of the external part is configured so as to emanate from the longitudinal center of the sleeve body and taper in the direction toward an end face of the sleeve body.

  • the surprising advantage of sufficient fusing of the internal part of the sleeve body being able to be achieved at the lowest possible input of energy into the induction heating elements in order for a good connection to be able to be produced between the two plastic pipes to be connected arises in particular at this shell strength ratio, wherein the internal part is not excessively fused in order for a dimensional stability of the internal part to be able to be maintained.
  • the width of the first and the second induction heating element is between 15% and 45%, in particular between 25% and 35%, preferably between 26% and 30% in relation to the width of the sleeve body.
  • At least one position-securing element is disposed on the sleeve body, said position-securing element in relation to one of the receptacle portions being disposed so as to project radially in the direction toward the center of the sleeve body. It is of advantage herein that the position-securing element can serve for centering the induction connection sleeve on one of the plastic pipes, on the one hand. Moreover, the induction connection sleeve by way of the position-securing element can be jammed on the external diameter of one of the plastic pipes.
  • the production method comprises the following method steps:
  • the induction connection sleeve by the method steps described can be produced in such a manner that the induction heating elements can be positioned as accurately as possible in the sleeve body.
  • the production method described can be readily automated in order for induction connection sleeves of this type to be able to be produced in a mass-production method.
  • the production method can be implemented in a very simple and therefore cost-effective manner in two injection-molding steps.

  • second and the fourth injection-mold half form an ejector side and are moved simultaneously.
  • ejecting the internal part of the sleeve body having the induction heating elements molded thereon and/or ejecting the finished induction connection sleeve are/is carried out by means of ejectors which are disposed in one of the injection-mold halves.
