The polyethylene pipe provided with a locating wire has the following problems.
Although the pipe locator allows the position of the pipe to be estimated from the ground, the position of the polyethylene joint, which is the joint for polyethylene pipe, cannot be estimated. That is, conventionally, the position of the polyethylene joint has not been easily confirmed after being buried in the ground. Therefore, there has been a problem that maintenance work and digging work require a lot of time and labor in the event of subsequent maintenance, failure, or accident.

Method for Detecting Socket Joint With respect to the method for detecting a socket joint, an example in which a detecting device is manufactured and a socket joint buried at a depth of 1 m in the ground is detected will be described. 1. Production of Detection Device Production of Transmitting Coil An enamel copper wire having a wire diameter of 0.3 mm was wound around the outer circumference of a ferrite core having a diameter of 74 mmφ for 100 turns to produce a transmitting coil having an outer diameter of 75 mm. Formation of Transmission Circuit A power supply having a frequency of 500 kHz was supplied to the transmission coil to form a transmission circuit. Preparation of Receiver Coil An enamel copper wire having a wire diameter of 0.2 mm was wound around a 10 mmφ ferrite core for 1000 turns to prepare a receiver coil having an outer diameter of 50 mm. Formation of Receiver Circuit A receiver circuit was formed by connecting an amplifier and a voltmeter for detection and display to the receiver coil. Production of Detection Device As a detection device by electromagnetic induction from the ground, a detection device including the above-mentioned transmission circuit and reception circuit was produced (not shown).

2. Example of detection of socket joint Using the polyethylene pipe 20 buried at a depth of 1 m in the ground as a detected body, the socket joint 7 was detected using the detection device. First, as a result of moving the detection device near the ground of the buried detection object while turning on and off the power of the detection device, the needle of the detection voltmeter immediately above the buried position of the socket joint 7 is detected. The maximum runout was, and the buried position of the socket joint could be detected. Further, since the buried position of the socket joint detected by the detection method of the present invention coincided with the buried position displayed on the ground, it was found that the buried position of the socket joint can be accurately detected by the socket joint detection method of the present invention. .
