Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a device for producing a continuous double-walled pipe, which is made of thermoplastic plastic material and has corrugated pipe segments and sleeve pipe segments. The pipe is produced by extruding an outer tube (Sa), which forms the outer pipe of the double-walled pipe, and an inner tube (Si), which forms the inner pipe of the double-walled pipe, in a molding channel (10), which has at least one segment having a corrugated molding surface and at least one segment having a preferably smooth, cylindrical or slightly conical sleeve molding surface. According to the invention, in order to mold a sleeve segment, the outer tube (Sa) is extruded into the sleeve molding surface and is brought in contact with the sleeve molding surface and the inner tube (Si) is extruded into the outer tube (Sa) already in contact over the entire axial length of the sleeve molding surface and is brought in contact with the inner surface of said outer tube (Sa) already in contact over the entire axial length of the sleeve molding surface. According to the method, the pressure (pa) acting on the inner surface of the outer tube (Sa) is controlled by means of steps a1 to a4 described in more detail, and the pressure (pi) acting on the inner surface of the inner tube (Si) is controlled by means of steps b1 to b3 described in more detail.

Abstract

A method and an apparatus for producing an endless double-walled pipe having corrugated pipe sections and sleeve pipe sections are described. The production is effected by extrusion of an outer tube (Sa), forming the outer pipe of the double-walled pipe, and of an inner tube (Si), forming the inner tube of the double-walled pipe, in a molding passage (10) having sections with a corrugated molding surface and a smooth cylindrical sleeve molding surface. To shape the sleeve section, the outer tube is extruded into the sleeve molding surface and is brought into contact with the sleeve molding surface. The inner tube (Si) is then extruded into the outer tube (Sa), already in contact over the entire axial length of the sleeve molding surface, and is brought in the process into contact with the inner side of said outer tube (Sa) that is in contact.

Abstract

A method and an apparatus for producing an endless double-walled pipe having corrugated pipe sections and sleeve pipe sections are described. The production is effected by extrusion of an outer tube (Sa), forming the outer pipe of the double-walled pipe, and of an inner tube (Si), forming the inner tube of the double-walled pipe, in a molding passage (10) having sections with a corrugated molding surface and a smooth cylindrical sleeve molding surface. To shape the sleeve section, the outer tube is extruded into the sleeve molding surface and is brought into contact with the sleeve molding surface. The inner tube (Si) is then extruded into the outer tube (Sa), already in contact over the entire axial length of the sleeve molding surface, and is brought in the process into contact with the inner side of said outer tube (Sa) that is in contact.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a device for producing an endless double-walled pipe having corrugated pipe sections and connecting sleeve sections. The production is carried out by extrusion of an outer tube (Sa) forming the outer pipe of the double-walled pipe and an inner tube (Si) forming the inner pipe of the double-walled pipe in a shaped channel (10) comprising sections with a corrugated shaped surface and a smooth cylindrical sleeve shape surface. In order to shape the sleeve section, the outer hose is extruded into the sleeve shape surface and brought into contact with the sleeve shape surface. The inner hose (Si) is then extruded into the outer hose (Sa) that is already in contact with the sleeve shape surface along the entire axial length and is thus brought into contact on the inside of said outer hose.

Abstract

A description is given of a corrugator device for shaping thermoplastic corrugated pipes from a tube of molten plastics material emerging from an extrusion device, with molding jaws 1.1 to 1.6 which are guided so as to circulate in a linear molding section 10 and are arranged in pairs one behind the other so as to form a molding passage in the molding section 10, wherein the pairs of molding jaws are formed from left-hand and right-hand molding jaws 1.1 to 1.6 and between them enclose a cylindrical mold cavity to form the molding passage; with grippers 2 for returning the molding jaws 1.1 to 1.6 from the end of the molding section 10 to the start of the molding section 10. Arranged at the end of the molding section 10 is a mold release device, which has at least one motor-driven rotary disk 3. The motor-driven rotary disk 3 has a first driver 31 and a second driver 32, which are arranged in such a way that the distance between the first driver 31 and the central rotational axis of the rotary disk is smaller than the distance between the second driver 32 and the central axis. As a result, during the mold releasing operation, at the beginning of said operation the first driver 31 acts with the smaller lever arm on the molding jaws and subsequently the second driver 32 acts with the greater lever arm on the molding jaws.

Abstract

The invention describes a corrugator for producing pipes with a transversely profiled pipe wall having moulding jaws (101 to 110) which are moved along at least two circulatory paths. The circulatory paths are designed in such a way that they each have a work section (135) and a recirculation section. The circulatory paths guide the moulding jaws (101 to 110) in their work section (135) to form a common moulding channel. In the recirculation sections, the moulding jaws (101 to 110) are in each case recirculated under the control of a recirculation device. It is essential that at least two moulding jaws arranged in succession in a circulatory path have different lengths. In order to control the drive of the moulding jaws, a detection device (141, 142) is provided for detecting an actual state of the moulding jaws (101 to 110) guided in the circulatory paths. The control is carried out by means of an electronic control device.

Abstract

The invention describes an apparatus for producing double-walled composite tubes which have an outer wall with wave peaks and wave valleys and a smooth inner wall. The apparatus (10) has two rows of shaping-jaw halves (12, 14) which, along a common shaping section, form a shaping tunnel (16) for producing the composite tube. At least one pair of the shaping-jaw halves (14) located opposite one another in the shaping section (16) has an inner contour (22) which forms a tube socket portion (50). The remaining shaping-jaw halves (12) are alternately designed with transverse grooves (18) and transverse fins (20). A sizing mandrel (24), with narrow vacuum grooves (26) formed spaced apart from one another in the axial direction on its outer lateral surface (28), projects into the shaping tunnel (16) for the smooth inner wall of the composite tube. A vacuum control valve device (30) is provided for the purpose of realizing defined closure and reopening of the vacuum grooves (26) which are in each case located in the tube socket portion (50) in steps with the aid of a drive device (38) and of flow-connecting them to a vacuum source (32).
