  • This invention relates to an improvement of an apparatus for manufacturing a hose intended for taking an undisturbed soil sample, in which apparatus a circularly knitted hose or the like may be coated with a coating liquid, said apparatus consisting of a tray for containing this liquid and provided with a central aperture, a tube extending through said aperture and provided with a discharge opening above the tray, an inner tube disposed inside said tube opening above the end of the first tube, anair supply communicating with the interspace between said tubes and an air discharge communicating with the inner tube, and means for pulling upwards a knitted hose or the like to be coated around the first tube, which hose is fed from the bottom in order to conduct the knitted hose or the like through the coating liquid present in the tray, as described in U.S. Pat. application Ser. No. 542,125, filed Apr. 12, 1966, now U.S.Pat.No. 3,511,324.
  • the invention has for its object to improve said apparatus so that a continuous operation becomes possible, although it still remains possible to operate with separate lengths. in particular it now becomes possible to lead the knitted hose through the apparatus right after the hose has left a circular knitting machine.
  • the improved apparatus is characterized in that the first tube is formed by an element substantially in the form of a solid body of revolution and provided with a central bore, the outer diameter of which element, at least over a portion thereof, being adapted to the desired diameter of the coated hose, whereas the central aperture of the liquid tray is provided with a resilient ring, the inner rim of which lying sufficiently adjacent to the element for preventing the liquid from leaking out of the tray, this however, without hindering the transport of the knitted hose between the element and the rim of the sealing ring.
  • the apparatus according to the invention is particularly so designed that the element can be movably placed into the central aperture of the tray, an air supply chamber being provided below the tray, which chamber is formed with a central aperture provided with a resilient ring by which the passage of air along the element is substantially prevented without said ring coming into contact with the hose disposed around the element, which chamber communicates with a source of compressed gas with a rather low pressure, whereas the element is formed with one 'or more transverse passages opening into the interspace between the inner tube and the inner wall of the longitudinal bore, and, on the other hand, in the operative position of this element communicating with the air supply chamber, the inner tube sealingly communicating below those passages with the lower portion of the element and opening into or near its end face, all this in such a manner that the air supply and discharge take placethrough the'still uncoated portions of the knitted hose.
  • the ring at the bottom of the tray is particularly of such design that the liquid in the tray is kept in equilibrium in the narrow interspace between the inner rim of said ring and the element by the air pressure in the air supply chamber and the surface tension of the liquid.
  • the central portion of said ring is made from a thin-plate or sheet of a sufficiently rigid synthetic material.

  • the element 2% is a solid body of revolution having a continuous axial bore 21 narrowed at its lower portion, in which latter portion a coaxial inner tube is closely fitted. The remaining portion of said bore forms together with the inner tube an annular passage. Said inner tube extends over a small height beyond the end of the element 2d as shown in FIG. 5.

  • Therim of the ring M is spaced at a small distance from the widest portion of said head so that the superfluous liquid may be wiped off the coated hose with it, and simultaneously, the head is centered by it.
  • the element 20 may be kept in its operative position in dif-. ferent ways.
  • a circular constriction 27 may be provided in the lower side of the element, two rollers 28 on both sides engaging this constriction, which rollers are rotatably supported by shafts 29.

  • FIG. 1 At the right side of FIG. 1 other supporting means are shown, comprising a magnet coil 34 fixed to the partition 10, and a magnetic ring 31 sunk into the element 2i opposite said coil, which ring will be attracted to the center of the coil as the latter is energized. Permanent magnets will also suit this purpose.
  • This apparatus operates in the following manner.
  • a bobbin of round knitted nylon hose is placed on the pin 3 and its end is fed between the pins 5.
  • the element 243 is inserted into the hose and through the apertures in the rings 8, ill and i6.
  • the element is secured by the rollers 28 or the magnet coil 52.
  • the shafts 29 may be designed so that at least one of them can be detached for applying the element therebetween.
  • the rollers 2% contact the hose in the constriction 2'7 with as little friction as possible.
  • the tray M is completely filled with coating liquid, and air under slight overpressure is fed to the chamber 9. Then the pinched end of the hose is raised with the liquid from the tray remaining on its surface, and the excess liquid is wiped off by the rim of the ring 16.
  • the tube 1'7 prevents air bubbles from reaching the liquid around the hose, which should be avoided since any possible air or vapor accumulation around the hose may lead to premature setting of the coating layer.
  • an air vent 32 is provided in the cover 15, moreover, if desired, a fine-meshed wire grid may be placed in the tube 8 for stopping air bubbles carried along.
  • the air from the chamber 9 flows through the bores 23 and the shaft bore 21 to the interior of the already coated hose, thus maintaining the desired diameter of this hose after having left the head 26.
  • the air can flow back through the inner tube 22 and is passed through the uncoated hose below the element 20.
  • the element 26 is formed in such a manner that the hose will contact this element as little as possible, as may appear from FIG. 1.
