Abstract

The disclosed sleeve is of the type including a resistance heating wire embedded in a thermoplastic sleeve material. A first sleeve member of insulating thermoplastic is molded with axially spaced integral annular receptacle wall members extending out from the outer surface and defining recesses. The walls have two diametrically opposite guide slots. Extending upwards from the center of each recess is a wire support stud. A resistance wire wound on the first sleeve between the wall members has its end sections passed through the slots and over the support stud, so that portions of the wire lie exposed against the side faces of the stud. A second sleeve member of insulating material is molded over the first sleeve so that the wire is embedded in the second sleeve but remains exposed within the recesses. The second sleeve material fills in the slots above the wire to thereby fix the wire in place in the slots. This permits a mating connector element to be inserted in the recess with its bore receiving the wire and wire support, so that electrical contact is made to the wire.

The invention relates to a method for producing an electrically welding plastic muff having embedded therewithin an electrical resistance heating wire whose end sections are formed into contacts The invention also provides a welding muff produced by this method.
Various methods are known for the production of electrically welding plastic muffs with which it is possible to produce a connection between sections of pipes and/or shaped members and fittings by heating the joint by electrical resistance heating The welding muffs have a sleeve member in the inside of which is appropriately embedded the electrical resistance heating wire necessary for heating purposes The sleeve member can either be constructed as a one-part tubular member or as a multipart member whose individual parts are produced successively.
In order to connect the resistance heating wire of such a welding muff with a power supply, connections are provided on the outside of the muff, particularly plug and socket connections, which connections on the one hand bring about a satisfactory electrical contact and on the other provide reliable protection against electric shocks.
In general, the manufacture of such plug and socket connections constitutes an expensive operation in the manufacture of the welding muff Separate parts used for the plug and socket connection must be connected with the resistance heating wire, or 1 603 169 X t the ends of the wire can be passed through the sleeve member and shaped in an appropriate manner to form an element of a plug and socket connection, e g a contact pin or stud Difficulties are encountered in inserting the ends of the coiled resistance heating wire through to the outside of the sleeve member, due to inadequate supporting or guidance of the end of the wire.
It would be desirable to so further develop a method of the type indicated hereinbefore that it is possible to produce the welding muff, and in particular its electrical connections, with limited expenditure and reliable guidance of the end of the wire.
According to the present invention there is provided a method of forming a plastics welding muff comprising forming a first plastics sleeve member with at least one outwardly extending wall defining a recess, locating a resistance heating wire helically along a surface of said first sleeve member with a U-shaped loop exposed within said recess and supported within said recess to form electrical connection means to cooperate with complementary connection means, and forming a second plastics sleeve member coaxially around or within the first sleeve member, to embed the helically wound wire, the U having its axis of symmetry extending radially of said sleeve.
The invention also provides an electric welding muff comprising an insulating thermoplastic sleeve extending along a longitudinal axis, a helically wound resistance heating wire embedded in said sleeve about said axis, means for forming a first electrical connection to said wire, and means for forming a second electrical connection to said wire, wherein said means for forming a first electrical connection to said wire comprises: a recess formed in said sleeve; a support member at said recess and extending radially relative to said sleeve; and a 8 \ \ O 1,603,169 contact defining portion of said wire formed in a U-shaped ioop which is exposed in said recess and coupled to and supported by said support member to permit said wire to contact complementary connection means coupled to an electrical source of energy, the U having its axis of symmetry extending radially of said sleeve.
In the case of the welding muff produced by the method of the invention, the contact defining portion of the resistance heating wire is supported by a support member at the recess in the sleeve member in such a way that the end section of the resistance heating wire can be secured in a plug and socket connection.
Thus, even when using the end of the resistance heating wire as the contact defining portion, a reliable, durable electrical connection with a completely satisfactory protection against electric shocks is obtained.
The invention is described in greater detail hereinafter relative to a preferred embodiment and with reference to the attached drawings, which show:
Fig 1 a partial vertical section through an electrically heatable welding sleeve in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention The sleeve is made from thermoplastic material with two radially directed contact pins extending from the outside of the sleeve member for a plug and socket connection.
Fig 2 a cross-section along the line II-II of Fig 1.
Fig 3 an enlarged representation, equivalent to the cutaway portion A of Fig 1, showing a preferred embodiment; Fig 4 a section along the line IV-IV of Fig 3.
Fig 5 a variant of the contact plug cross-section.
The electrical welding sleeve made from thermoplastic material partly shown in Fig.
1 has an electrical receptacle in the form of a contact plug 2 located in an approximately radially directed receptacle recess 3 in the wall of sleeve member 1 whose walls 4 form an effective protection against electric shock.
The sleeve member 1 of Fig 1 comprises a supporting body 5 on whose outside is wound in separate coils an electrical resistance heating wire 6 and a sleeve outer part 7 The welding sleeve in turn comprises the sleeve member 1 and the electrical connections, i e the contact plug 2 arranged in recess 3.
The sleeve member 1 can be constructed in various ways For example, the supporting body 5 can be produced in a first injection mould and can subsequently be wound Then in a second injection moulding operation the sleeve outer part 7 can be injection moulded around the inner supporting body 5 However, it is also possible to produce the sleeve member first and then place the resistance heating wire 6 in an appropriate manner on the inside thereof, after which it is connected to the sleeve inner part.
Figs 2 and 3 show that contact plug 2 has a body portion comprising a support tongue integral with the inner supporting body 5 and has the resistance heating wire 6 wound onto the outside of the inner supporting body 5 so as to form a U-shaped loop 8 over the support tongue 10 with two approximately radially directed lengths 9 passing up each side and over the support tongue so that the axis of symmetry of the U is radial to the sleeve 1 This arrangement is more clearly visible in the enlarged representations of Figs 3 and 4.
As can be seen from the cross-section through the composite contact plug 2 in Figs 4 and 5, the radially directed wire lengths 9 and support tongue 10 are located within a notional cylindrical region 11 shown by dotted lines This may, for example, be a socket defined by the bore of a bushing 12 of an electrical connecting lead such as is indicated schematically by dotted lines in Fig 3 where bushing 12 is located in a virtually tolerance-free manner in a cylindrical recess 3 of sleeve member 1 and forms with the two wire lengths 9 of composite contact plug 2 a reliable electrical connection, which also ensures a good protection against electric shocks.
For the manufacture of the welding sleeve of Fig 1, there is first produced a supporting body 5 with the integrally formed support tongues 10, e g by injection moulding in a mould Simultaneously, a slotted circular recess wall member 15 is formed, extending around support 10 This wall member 15 has two diametrically opposite guide slots 16, which are somewhat wider than the thickness of resistancce heating wire 6 and which extend to the bottom of the recess 3 Slots 16 serve to prevent displacement of the end of wire 6 in the direction of the sleeve axis 17 and also to prevent the loop 8 from sliding off top of the support tongue 10 By virtue of the alternative construction of support tongue 10 shown in Fig 5, any sliding off of the loop 8 is made even more difficult, because the support tongue 10 is constructed with a guide groove 18 for each of the wire lengths 9 of loop 8.
Following the production of sleeve supporting body 5, the resistance heating wire 6 is wound onto the outside thereof in axially spaced coils, whereby prior to the start of winding of wire 6 the loop 8 is secured by a bushing 12 At the end of the winding process bushing 12 is removed and sleeve outer part 7 is shaped on, using a mould ( 11 i 1,603,169 which has a portion which corresponds to bushing 12 and projects into the respective recess 3 and prevents the ingress of material of the outer sleeve part 7 into the recess 3.
The moulding of outer sleeve part 7 will then close the slots 16 and embed the resistance heating wire 6 If the wall member 15 does not extend up to the external diameter of sleeve member 1, in the way it does in Fig 3, it is covered by the material of the outer sleeve part 7.
As can be seen from Fig 3, the floor of recess 3 and an annular portion 19 which extends around the wall member 15 can be positioned lower than the external diameter of supporting body 5 Thus, the support tongue 10 can be made sufficiently long, without thereby modifying the good protection against electric shocks.
In principle, the end of resistance heating wire 6 can be guided around support tongue in a fashion other than in loop 8 The essential point is that the composite contact plug 2 includes a support tongue 10 around or over which is placed a portion of the end section of wire 6.
In place of contact plug 2, a socket in the form of a bushing well can be formed in the sleeve member 1 The resistance heating wire 6 is then supported by the inner side wall of the bushing well which has wall slots.
This wall thus serves as the support member for the contact-defining loop position of the wire A contact plug on the conductor lead will in this case be used for securing the end of wire 6 during the winding operation (in place of the bushing 12 used in the above described winding method for the embodiment of Figures 1 to 5) Generally, practical reasons decide whether the electrical connection means in the welding sleeve is formed as a bushing well (just described) or as a contact plug 2 (as in Figures 1 to 5).
Both constructions ensure a simple and reliable electrical connection in that a support member i e the support tongue 10 or the inside face of the side wall of the bushing, is used on which is placed the end of the resistance heating wire 6.
Sleeve member 1 may also be constructed in one part, but use can still be made of the described construction of the electrical connection In this case, the supporting body 5 and outer sleeve part 7 form a one-part tubular member and support tongue 10 can be provided as a separate insert, as indicated by dotted lines in Fig 3 on the bottom of recess 3.
