. I v 1 I This invention relates to the treatment of pipes and more particularly to an apparatus for use in treating pipe lines such as are placed underground and used for the transportation of various fluids, including petroleum and petroleum products.
One 'of the objects of the invention is to provide means for cleaning the exterior of pipes and then applying a protective coating to the same.
Another object is to supply an apparatus which 8 Cla lms. (Cl. 154-41) willprogressively heat a pipe lengthwise thereof so as to loosen scale or the like; then remove the scale; and subsequently apply a coating or covering including a thermo-plastic which will be rendered tacky by heat radiating from the pipe.
A further object of the invention is to furnish a simple, practical apparatus, and one which will be exceedingly effective for the purpose for which it is designed.
With the foregoing objects outlined and with other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists in the novel features hereinafter described in detail,
illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and
, more particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawings Fig. 1 is a side elevation of ou paratus.
Fig. 2 i an end elevation, partly in vertical transverse section, the section being taken on the line 2-2 of Fig. l.
Fig. 3 is afragmentary elevation of a detail illustrating one of the pipe cleaning brushes and I improved ap the yieldingmeans for urging it toward the pipe.

Fig. 5 is an enlarged elevation of the burners used in heating the pipe, and showing the fuel mixers and cooling means for the burners,
Fig. 6 isa top plan view of the burner unit and its water cooled" supporting rollers.
Fig. '7 is a sectional view of the burner unit taken on the line 1-| of Fig.5.
Referring to the drawings, 8 designates a carriage frame supporting a prime mover 9, such as an internal combustion enginawhich through a conventional gear reducer indicated at "I, operates a drive shaft ll, journaled on the frame. The shaft, through the medium of a manually controlled clutch l2, actuates a driven shaft I 3; both shafts being preferably in alignment and extending lengthwise of the frame.
About midway the length of the frame, bracki as to evenly distribute the gaseous mixture.
etsv I 4. only one of which isillustrated, depend from the frame and are connected to ahorizontal rotatable shaft 15, to. which is fixed traction wheels or disks l6 adapted to travel along a pipe line indicated at IT. The traction Wheels may be driven by any suitable means, for example, a beveled gear l8 rigid with the shaft, may mesh a similar gear I 8, secured to the lower end of a vertical shaft 20. The latter is provided at its upper end with a beveled gear 2| meshing with a similar gear 22 fixed to thedriven shaft 13.
The forward end of the frame of the machine is provided with a depending bracket 23 which supports, by means of a horizontal axle 24, a plate .25 adapted to rock about the axle 24 to accommodate inclined portions of the pipe line. The plate is-swiveled as indicated at 26 to the central portion of a disk 21 adapted to turnabout a vertical axis to allow the burner unit, now about to be described, to follow curvatures in the pipe line.
As best shown in Figs. 5 and 6, the disk 21 supports a bracket 28 which in turn supports a pair of semi-circular burners 29, having tips 30 adapted to diiject the flame against the pipe l1. As the two burners form .a ring, it is obviou that the flame will be directed against the'pipe from all radii of the circle. Each burner is supplied with a gaseous mixture from a mixer ll by means of a pipe 32 that is split into branches 33, connected respectively at'spacedpoints to the'burner 29 so Each mixer 3| is provided with a valve controlled pipe 34 for'the introduction of acetylene or the like, and another valve controlled pipe 35 for the introduction of oxygen. The acetylene and oxygen maybe received from tanks, not shown, carried by a truck which will proceed along the pipe line as the apparatus progresses.
As the flame from the burners will create high temperatures, we prefer to provide the burners shafts 4|. each connected to a pair of beveled disks 42, adapted to travel along'on top of the pipe line, asv indicated in Fig. 5. As the disks have to travel over the heated portion of the pipe in the vicinity of the burners, they may, also, be of hollow construction (Figs. 5 and 6) so that water or the like may travel from an inlet pipe 43,
through one of the hollow shafts and its disks, thence through a. connection pipe 44, and finally through the other hollow shaft and its disks bewater for this purpose may be circulated from a 4 pump and radiator disposed on a sled or similar conveyance travelling adjacent to the pipe treating machine.
For balancing purposes, we may arrange brackets 48 (only one of which is shown) at the end of the apparatus where the burners are located. and such brackets may be secured to the water jacket. The brackets support a horizontal shaft 41 adapted to extend beneath the pipe line, as indicated in Fig. 1, the shaft being journaled in bearings 48 at the lower ends of the vertically disposed threaded rods 49, which extend through the brackets, as indicated at 50. Each of the threaded rods is surrounded by upper and lower springs 5|, 52, the tension of which is adjusted by a nut 53 on the threaded rod. A pair of disks 54 are secured to the shaft 41 and are adapted to travel along the bottom of the pipe line.
The opposite end of the frame 8 is fixed to a substantially circular support plate 55 (Fig. 2) provided with a series of circumferentially arranged apertures 56, one of which is indicated in Fig. 4. Each aperture is adapted to receive a bolt 51 having an eccentric body 58 on which is journaled a disk or roller 59. Five of such rollers are illustrated, and it may be seen from Fig.
1 that they extend into a circumferential groove 60 of a gear wheel GI and support the latter. By turning the bolts 51 about their axes, it is obvious that the wheel 6| may be shifted transversely or vertically, relatively to the axis of the pipe line;
The wheel is provided at opposite sides of the groove 60 with gear teeth. meshing with a gear 63 (Fig. 2) rotatable on a stud shaft 64 fixed to the ring 55. The gear is driven by a gear 55 fixed to the driven shaft l3 which extends through the ring and is journaled therein as indicated at 66 (Figfl).
A series of stiff brushes 51 (preferably wire) are used to clean scale or the like from the pipe after the pipe has been heated, and each of these brushes, as best shown in Fig. 3, is secured to one end of an arm 68, the opposite end being pivotally secured at 69 to the rotatable wheel Bl. Each brush is'provided with a threaded rod 10 extending through an abutment 1| fixed to the wheel. There is a spring 12 arranged on each rod between a nut 13 and the abutment, used in adjustably urging the brush toward the pipe line.
After a. portion of the pipe line has been heated and then cleaned by the brushes, the heat impounded in the pipe is employed in applying a protecting covering or coating to the pipe. The heat can be used in rendering any suitable thermo-plastic material tacky and the thermo-plastic may be applied to the pipe separately or simultaneously with a wrapper of felt or the like. For example, as indicated in Fig. 1, rolls I4 of felt thermo-plastio material tacky, also in many instances eliminates the (use of a coating primer necessary in the application of coating on a cold pipe.
From the foregoing, it is believed that the operation of the apparatus may be readily understood, but in brief, it will be observed that the engine 9 drives the apparatus along the pipe line in the direction'of the arrow, indicated at F in Fig. 1, and at the same time causes the rotation of the wheel BI and the parts which it carries. As the machine progresses along the pipe line, the flame issuing from the burners will heat the pipe and loosen any scale or the like, as well as remove moisture. Then the brushes will come into play and thoroughly clean the heated pipe before the thermo-plastic and wrapping material are applied, either singly or together.
It is manifest that a sand blast or the like could be substituted for the wire brushes, and other coating material such as bitumen or the like may be applied by means of a coating shoe prior to wrapping the pipe with felt, paper, etc;
While we have disclosed what we now consider to be a preferred embodiment of the apparatus, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that changes may be made in the details of each without departing from the spirit of'the invention, as expressed in the following claims.
What we claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. A pipe treating apparatus comprising a. carriage arranged to travel upon a pipe line, a heating unit movable with the carriage and providing heat tothe pipe from substantially all radii thereof for removal of moisture and loosening of scale, a rotatable pipe cleaning unit movable with the carriage and arranged toremove scale from the hot pipe, and a wrapping unit movable with the carriage and rotatable about the pipe simultaneous with the cleaning unit, said wrapping unit including rolls of thermoplastic wrapping material, said heating unit and wrapping unit so constructed and arranged to utilize the heat impounded in the pipe to cause the wrapping material to adhere to the pipe.
2. A pipe treating apparatus comprising a carriage supported frame, a heating unit operatively connected to the frame and comprising substantially circular burner means adapted to surround the pipe and to direct flame against the pipe from substantially all radii thereof, a wrapping unit operatively connected to the frame and including spoolsof thermoplastic wrapping'material, and means for moving the spools in a circular path around the pipe and arranged to utilize the heat impounded in the pipe for rendertape having a thermo-plastic layer 15 at one side thereof may be used for the purpose.
