For example, they may be used to join two or more pieces of metal and/ or plastic together, for joining two or more cylindrical or square pieces of tubing together, for joining two or more pieces of tubing or rod or combinations thereof together, for the application of casters to chair legs, and for sealing bottle caps or for sealing covers on containers. Furthermore, these articles may be used for lamination in general, for connection of any two similarly shaped objects, for forming a moisture proof covering on one or more objects, for making a chemical resistant covering for one or more objects, as
  • the fusible insert of the present invention may perform multiple functions.
  • recoverable member 27 is first molded or otherwise formed into the shape illustrated in 13A such that it is provided with recessed portion 28.
  • the article is then deformed as illustrated in FIGURE 13B so as to impart elastic memory properties thereto according to any of the well known processes for so doing such as those which have previously been described.
  • Article 27 is then provided with fusible insert 29 and solder 30 as illustrated in FIGURE 13C.
  • Electrical conductors 31 having insulat- 4ing covering 32 thereon are then inserted into the interior of article 27 as illustrated in FIGURE 13D. Heat is thenapplied to this assembly which causes recoverable article 27 to return to its original configuration (illustrated in FIGURE 13A), and which also causes .fusible insert 29 and solder 30 to become uid.
  • the heat also causes insulation 32 tormigrateraway from the ends of conductors 3i which'migration is illustra-tedafter partial completion in FIGURE 13D. i Since the ends of conductors 31 are located in recessed area 28, the contraction of recoverable material 27 will cause fusiblewinsert 29 to come into contact with insulation 32 without causing recoverable member 27 to come intocontact with conductors 31'. Furthermore, since the density of solder 30 is greater than that of insulation 32, the solder wilbl tend to force the insulation away from the ends of lconductors 31..
  • the articles of the present invention may have any desired configuration.
  • the configuration of the articles of the present invention will, in most cases, be determined by the shaperof the articles to which they are yto be laminated or otherwise united.
  • the present invention is equally applicable to recoverable members which expand rather than contract.
  • vFor example by providing a tubular recoverable member with a fusible member which surrounds the recoverable member, an larticle which is particularly suitable for the lining of tubular members such as pipes is produced.
  • the expandable recoverable article of the present invention is, for example, positioned within a pipe which it is desired to line, andl heat is applied to .the ⁇ article. lThe article of the present invention is thus caused to expand in diameter and the fusible material is caused to become ilowable. ⁇
  • the resultant product isa pipewhich has been provided witha ⁇ securely bonded liningfof the recoverable material.
