Conventionally, the method of manufacturing this heat-shrinkable sheet is as follows:
The aim is to provide as uniform shrinkage as possible in the width direction (circumferential direction of the cable). For example, as shown in FIG. 2, a sheet body 6 is formed by wrapping a cross-linked stretched plastic tape with uniform shrinkability multiple times in advance in the length direction (wrapping direction) on a mandrel 8, and then ribs are placed on the sheet body 6. Glue 7. and rib 7
Cut it in the axial direction from the center as shown by line A-A in Figure 2B, bend the two halves near the ribs 7, 7 in a direction that separates each other by 90 degrees, and then split it vertically. A heat-shrinkable sheet 4 having a shape is obtained.

However, although the heat-shrinkable sheet manufactured by such a method has uniform shrinkability in the entire width direction, when it is placed over the connecting portion 1a as shown in FIG. Due to its elastic action, the seam 9 between the inner surfaces of both sides
A gap 10 is likely to be formed nearby. Therefore, this gap 10
In order to remove the inner surface of the joint 9 on both sides and adhere it to the circumferential surface of the connecting portion 1a, skill is required in the method of holding the clip 5 and the heat shrinking operation, which poses the problem of reducing work efficiency. be.

This invention was made against the background of the above-mentioned circumstances, and aims to provide a method for manufacturing a heat-shrinkable sheet that improves the efficiency of heat-shrinking work and has excellent sealing properties. The wall thickness on both sides is made thicker than other parts, and then the sheet body is uniaxially stretched in the width direction so as to make the entire wall thickness uniform, giving both sides a higher shrinkage rate than other parts. It is a symbol of that.

First, the sheet main body 11 and the ribs 12, 12 made of uncrosslinked polyethylene or the like are extruded to form both side parts 11a, 11 as shown in FIG.
A sheet having a cross-sectional shape in which the wall thickness at a portion a is thicker than other portions is formed. Next, high-energy radiation is irradiated from one side from which the ribs 12, 12 protrude to bridge the sheet body 11 and the ribs 12, 12 together. Thereafter, the sheet body 11 is uniaxially stretched in the width direction. During this stretching, according to the research of the present inventor, both sides 11 near the bases of the ribs 12, 12
a and 11a tend to be subjected to concentrated tensile force and tend to be stretched more than other parts. Therefore, by utilizing this phenomenon, for example, by applying a sudden tensile force and then applying a constant tension,
The sheet body 11 is stretched until the side parts 11a, 11a are stretched more than the other parts and reach the same thickness as the other parts. If the above-mentioned method is insufficient, only the both sides may be stretched until the entire thickness is uniform (see FIG. 5). By making the overall thickness uniform in this way, a heat-shrinkable sheet 13 can be obtained in which both sides 11a, 11a of the sheet main body 11 have a higher shrinkage rate than other parts. In this case, the seat body 11
Since the other side is not cross-linked, it naturally has heat-fusible properties, but it may be coated with a heat-fusible adhesive or a pressure-sensitive adhesive that is sticky at room temperature.

Heat-shrinkable sheet 13 manufactured by such a method
is wrapped around the connecting part 1a through the spacer 2, aluminum sleeve 3, etc. with one side where the ribs 12, 12 protrude outward, and sandwiched between the clips 5, etc. with the inner surfaces of both side parts 11a, 11a facing each other. use. At this time, it goes without saying that a gap 10 is likely to be formed near the seam 9 of the both side parts 11a, 11a, similar to the conventional heat-shrinkable sheet, but in this invention, the both sides 11a, 11a of the sheet main body 11 are By applying a shrinkage rate higher than that of the part, a difference in shrinkage rate occurs between the parts and other parts, and by utilizing this difference in shrinkage rate, the gap 10 near the seam 9 is closed during heat shrinkage. It is something that can be done to remove.

For example, the range B shown in Figure 5 is 60% of the original dimension.
%, and if the range of both sides 11a and 11a vicinity C shrinks to 50% of its original size, this 10%
The relative difference of can be used. In order to simplify these explanations, both sides 11 are shown in FIG.
Considering only the relative contraction of a and 11a, AB
and the dimension lo of EF shrinks to l = (50/60)lo,
The shape of ABCDEF changes as shown by the two-dot chain line A′BCDEF′. In other words, the area surrounded by A′BCDEF′ decreases from lo to l.
It will be about 50/60 of the area enclosed by ABCDEF. In this case, if the ratio of the area occupied by the gap 10 in the area surrounded by ABCDEF is 10/60 or less, the thickness of both sides 11a, 11a increases in inverse proportion to the decrease in length, and Since the area occupied by 11a, 11a should not change, the gap 10 will be removed as a result of the both sides 11a, 11a entering the gap 10. Therefore, the inner surfaces near both sides of the seam 9 can be tightly adhered to the circumferential surface of the connecting portion 1a, and the entire circumferential surface of the connecting portion 1a can be sealed (see FIG. 7).

The difference in shrinkage rate between both sides and other parts is determined by the difference in wall thickness between both sides and other parts before the sheet main body is stretched. Therefore, it is more effective to set the wall thickness of both sides in consideration of the area of the gap.

The thickness of both sides of the sheet body is made thicker than the other parts, and when the sheet body is stretched, tensile force is concentratedly applied to both sides to make the overall thickness uniform. Therefore, it is possible to give both sides a higher shrinkage rate than other parts, and the relative difference in shrinkage rate between both sides and other parts can be used to eliminate gaps that tend to form near the joints of both sides. Therefore, a heat-shrinkable sheet with excellent sealing properties can be obtained.
