A socket jig is provided. In one embodiment, the socket jig includes a pair of pipe clamp jaws and a pair of coupling clamp jaws. The pair of pipe clamp jaws can move towards and away from one another using a tightening mechanism that runs through one or more openings in each of the pipe clamp jaws. Similarly, the pair of coupling clamp jaws can move towards and away from another using a tightening mechanism that runs through one or more openings in each of the coupling clamp jaws. Finally, the pipe clamp jaws and the coupling clamp jaws can move towards each other by turning a handle which operates a gearbox that provides mechanical advantage to the operator as the pipe clamp jaws and coupling clamp jaws move towards or away from on another.

Pipes of a weldable polymer material are welded with a muff of a weldable polymer material. The method includes placing the muff with an overlap over the ends of the pipes, welding the muff to the ends of the pipes through placement of an electrically conducting band that is permeable to molten plastic between the pipe and the muff, connecting a power supply to the band through feed cables, and supplying an electrical current in order to heat the band and the surrounding polymer material such that they melt together around the band in order to form a weld. The temperature of the weld is calculated through adding the initial ambient temperature of the weld and the increase in temperature of the band.

A method of producing basic starting material for the manufacture of fastener tabs intended for joining the side portions of the front and rear parts of an absorbent article. The method includes stretching a first sheet of elastic material in a first direction; applying a second and third sheet of material onto respective opposite sides of the first sheet; fastening the three material sheets together in at least two mutually separated zones that extend parallel with each other in one direction perpendicular to the first direction; dividing the first sheet in each region between two zones along a line lying therebetween, whereby the first sheet contracts to a non-stretched state, and thereafter fastening the sheets together in each region between two zones. The invention also relates to an arrangement for carrying out the method, to starting material for producing fastener tabs, and to such a tab.

A method of producing basic starting material for the manufacture of fastener tabs (31) intended for joining the side portions of the front and rear parts of an absorbent article that includes a front part, a rear part and an intermediate crotch part, so as to give the article a pants-like configuration According to the invention the method comprises the steps of stretching a first sheet (1) of elastic material in a first direction (T); applying a second and a third sheet of material (9, 10) onto respective opposite sides of the first sheet; fastening the three material sheets together in at least two mutually separated zones (14, 15) that extend parallel with each other in one direction (M) perpendicular to said first direction; dividing the first sheet (1) in each region between two zones (14, 15) along a line that lies between said zones, wherewith the first sheet in each region (16) between two zones (14, 15) contracts to a non-stretched state, and thereafter fastening the sheets together in each region (16) between two zones (14, 15). The invention also relates to an arrangement for carrying out the method, to starting material for producing fastener tabs, and to such a tab.

A portable heat sealer for sealing heavy grade thermoplastic films comprises a plurality of adjacent, segmented heating elements positioned along the underside of a heated sealing bar. The segmented heating elements are under the control of a microprocessor for controlling the energy applied to the heated sealing bar to avoid the formation of hot spots and to obtain a strong seal. Each heating element is maintained in firm contact with the heated sealing bar by means of a tension spring. A thermoplastic film bag is placed on the heated sealing bar and a movable sealer jaw is lowered on top of the bag. A jaw switch is activated by the sealer jaw which turns-on power to the heat sealer. A latch 32 attaches to a clip on the end of the sealer jaws and secures the sealer jaw in place. Pilot lights are provided to indicate to an operator the cycles of nullreadynull, nullheatnull and nullcoolnull.

A secondary containment pipe system disposed around a primary pipe system and comprising a joint that is divided along a central parting plane and has laterally projecting flanges that form internal passages for adhesive sealing cement, that is injected through ports while the joint is clamped together around secondary containment pipes. The joint has pipe sockets that have internal grooves that also are filled with injected cement, thus forming a continuous, uninterrupted seal around the interior of the joint, and also has spillover grooves and wells for minimizing leakage, and lateral aligning surfaces. The clamping means are C-shaped clips that can be left in place indefinitely. The secondary containment pipes also are divided, being formed by elongated pipe elements fitted together around the primary pipes and having snap-latching coupling means along their abutting edges. One embodiment has internal reinforcing flaps that extend across the abutting edges and define internal sealing passages along the coupling means to be filled with injected adhesive cement through external ports, and also has means along the free edges for holding the flaps in place. A second pipe embodiment has tongue-and-groove couplings along thickened edges, and internal passages along the couplings in the form of enlarged coupling grooves, and an external reinforcing strip is provided for optional use in pressurized systems.
摘要:
A joint configuration for joining two articles of thermoplastic material by thermal bonding using an electrical heating element, wherein a female fitting having a portion with an enlarged diameter receives the end of an inserted pipe on two raised portions constituting lands on the inner diameter of the fitting, and the central annular recess between the two lands receives and positions the electrical heating element which fuses the thermoplastic material. The two lands, each compressed against the outside of the inserted pipe by an external clamp, confine and retain the fused thermoplastic material within the central annular recess to effect an increased internal pressure which promotes the formation of an extensive, continuous, and sound bond between the fitting and the inserted pipe.

Web end portions are spliced together with plastic rivets formed from a soft pliable plastic. To form a splice, a patch of thermoplastic having the property of expanding when subjected to heat and pressure such as chlorinated polyethylene material, is placed on a splicing base. A pair of web end portions to be spliced together are placed in abutting or overlapped relation on the platic material to form a web-patch sandwich. A platen having an opening in register with the patch is brought into pressure engagement with the web-patch sandwich to form a pressurized plastic bubble extending into the opening. A heated pin of substantially the same configuration as the opening is moved therethrough for confining the opening and inserting a necked down head at the end thereof into the plastic in the bubble. The combination of heat, pressure and gas formation within the thermoplastic causes the visco-elastic plastic to expand through the opening in the web formed by the pinhead to fill the confined opening and form a plastic rivet head on the surface of the web opposite the patch.
