[Function] In the device of the present invention, the protector is pulled by a pulling wire when moving inside the pipe. On the other hand, the main body of the repair tool is housed within the protective body. The rear end of the repair tool body and the rear end of the protector are fixed (removably) by a fixing means.

従って、保護体を牽引すると、補修具本体も追動する。Therefore, when the protector is towed, the repair tool body also follows.

Also, since the body of the repair tool is covered with an inflatable membrane, if the tip does not slide, the back of the inflatable membrane will also be stretched, which will interfere with the bending of the protector. However, this can also be prevented with the device of the present invention.

Next, the protector and the repair tool main body are pulled in opposite directions, and the repair tool main body is pulled out until it stops. Then, an operating fluid is pressurized into the airtight space, and the expanded membrane and the sheet-shaped repair material wound around the outside are slid to expand the diameter of the wrapped portion, thereby bringing the repair material into close contact with the repaired area. Next, electricity is applied from the power supply device to the expansion membrane made of energized heat-generating rubber, causing the expansion membrane to generate heat and hardening the repair material.

Once the repair material has hardened, turn off the power from the power supply device,
The operating fluid is removed from the airtight space and the diameter of the expansion membrane is reduced. After that, the traction means is pulled in its backward direction until the protector is in the state before work is carried out on the main body of the repair tool, then the fluid is removed from the cylinder, the fixing means is detached from the inner surface of the pipe, and the fixing means is removed. After the fixing part at the tip fixes the protector, the repair device is pulled out of the tube to finish the work.

After confirming that the repair device has been inserted to the repair point, stop the repair device, and supply fluid from the fluid pressure introduction pipe 12 to the cylinder 3 through the fluid pressure supply hole 11 to move the piston 4 into the spring 10. Operate outward against resistance. The engaging pawl 6 expands in the radial direction due to this operation, and as the hook 7 is removed from the engaging portion 26, the engaging pawl 6 eventually abuts against the inner surface of the conduit 29 and stops. As a result, the rear end member 1' is fixed within the conduit 29. This situation is illustrated in Figure 8.9.

Next, when pulling the traction wire 27 on the draw-out hole 37 side, the repair tool body side is fixed as described above, so
Only the protector side is pulled, and eventually the rib 41 reaches the stopper 4.
2, the protection body stops. As a result, the repair material a is exposed. This situation is shown in FIG. 10, and once the repair material a has been exposed in this way, fluid is then supplied from the fluid pressure supply pipe 17 into the airtight space 14' to cause the expansion membrane 14 to move in the radial direction. As it expands, repair material a is loosened, and eventually repair material a
is brought into close contact with the inner surface of the conduit 29. This situation is illustrated in FIG.

Next, while maintaining this close contact state, power is supplied to the expansion film 14 from the current-carrying wire 19, 19' through the electrode 15, 15' to generate heat to harden the repair material a, and when this hardening is completed, the power supply is stopped, The fluid is removed from the airtight space 14', the inflatable membrane 14 is contracted to its original thickness, the traction wire 27 is pulled through the insertion hole 35, and the protector is placed over the repair tool body.
Next, drain the fluid from inside the cylinder 3 and remove the spring 100.
After the engaging claw 6 is retracted toward the center by force, the hook 7 is engaged with the engaging portion 26 on the protector side and integrated, the pulling wire 27 is pulled toward the insertion side to recover the repair device.

The above is an example of how the repair device is used, and if there is a bend when inserting or recovering the repair device into the pipe line 29, the protector is made of the flexible pipe 25, 25'. Furthermore, since the main body of the repair tool is also made of the flexible tube 13, it moves within the conduit 29 while making a circular curve along the conduit 29, as shown in FIG.

In particular, inside the protector, the distal end side of the repair tool main body is free, so when it is curved, this free side slides due to the difference in curvature, helping the tool to curve.
