An apparatus (1) and method for introducing a foil (10) to be laminated to an inner surface (15) of an elongated duct (6), wherein the foil is providable on an axle (2), the axle being movable from a first position outside of the duct, where the foil is provided on the axle, to a second position inside the duct where the foil is in position for lamination to the inner surface of the duct.

In order to further improve a method and a device for rehabilitating a pipe section, wherein the rehabilitation device has at least one tube-shaped inliner for sealing damage to the pipe section and a heating element, in such a way that the rehabilitation may be carried out more easily, safer, and more economically, it is proposed to design the heating element as a tube-shaped and electric heating element and to arrange it essentially across an entire length of the inliner arranged within the pipe section, and to cure the inliner essentially along the entire length in one step by means of the tube-shaped electric heating element.

A fluid conduit for aircraft, the conduit having a pipe made from thermoplastic material having a connection end which extends along a pipe axis and a connector which is intended to be mounted in the connection end by a translational movement along the pipe axis in a downstream direction, the connector having a joining portion which extends longitudinally along the connector axis and which is configured to extend into the connection end, the joining portion having a free longitudinal end which is chamfered, the free longitudinal end being configured to be radially deformed after the connector is mounted in the connection end, which has been thermally expanded beforehand, so that the conduit has an internal surface which has an internal radius which is substantially constant at the interface between the connector and the pipe.

A system and method of retroactively lining a vertical trash chute in a building. A tubular fabric liner is provided having a first open end and a second open end. The tubular fabric liner is infused with a resin. A first plug assembly is attached to the first open end. The tubular fabric liner is pulled through the vertical trash chute to position the tubular fabric liner in the trash chute. A second plug assembly is attached to the second open end. The tubular fabric liner is inflated. As it expands, the tubular fabric liner presses against the interior of the trash chute. This condition is maintained until the resin cures and bonds the tubular fabric liner to the trash chute. Once cured, the plug assemblies are removed, the tubular fabric liner is trimmed, and trash chute access openings are cut through the cured liner.
