Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de soudage qui : permet non seulement à l'élément chauffant mais également à la tête de soudage ainsi qu'à l'ensemble du dispositif d'être rendu plus léger et plus petit ; est capable d'augmenter l'efficacité de soudage avec une configuration simple ; et est également capable de réduire les coûts de manière significative. La tête de soudage (11) qui entoure et maintient la jonction (3) d'un accouplement (1) et d'un tube (2) a de multiples pinces (20) qui peuvent être ouvertes et fermées. Les éléments chauffants (30), qui sont prévus le long de la circonférence intérieure de chaque pince (20), sont obtenus par superposition de matériaux isolants en forme de feuille (32) sur l'avant et l'arrière d'un corps de génération de chaleur en forme de feuille (31), fixant ce dernier à une plaque métallique mince (33) et le courbant en forme d'arc qui suit la surface circonférentielle intérieure de la pince (20). Lorsque les pinces respectives (20) sont dans la position fermée, les éléments chauffants (30) sont disposés de manière à entourer la circonférence extérieure de la jonction (3) en continu dans la direction circonférentielle sans espace, les deux sections d'extrémité adjacentes respectives (30a) étant en butée les unes contre les autres.
