The invention relates to a device (10) for pulling in, and in particular curing, a pipeline liner (40), the device comprising a housing (11) having a first end piece (12) and a second end piece (14) opposite one another, a housing body (16) extending between the end pieces (12, 14), and a power supply line connected to the first end piece (12), in which device an electromagnet (45) which is coupled to the power supply line and can be energized thereby is provided on the second end piece (14), in particular on the free end face thereof.

A pipe-liner system for lining a pipe and methods of use thereof. A continuous, eversible extended liner is formed from a pipe-liner attached to an extender-tube via a substantially leak-proof connection there between. Lengths of the extender-tube and the pipe-liner are each chosen so that the pipe-liner is caused to be accurately positioned within the pipe upon everting the extended liner into the pipe by a pressurized fluid. The pipe-liner is held against an interior surface of the pipe being lined by inserting an inflatable bladder into the extended liner and filling the bladder with pressurized fluid. When a resin in the pipe-liner has hardened, the bladder is removed and the extender-tube is detached from the pipe-liner.

Methods and systems for installation of a liner inside a conduit (e.g., water pipe) to transport a fluid (e.g., potable water) to rehabilitate the conduit, in which the liner can be installed, and thus the conduit can be rehabilitated, more efficiently, including, for example, by further reducing an extent of digging that may have to be done, by testing more readily (e.g., pressure-testing for watertightness or other fluid-tightness once installed), and/or by adapting to a cross-sectional size of the conduit. Also, the liner may be thinner, interact better (e.g., less) with the fluid flowing through the conduit, and/or be otherwise designed to enhance its use and performance.

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.

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 method of manufacturing a length of lined pipe comprises inserting a radially-contracted liner pipe into an outer host pipe. Injector needles are inserted through an end of the outer pipe into an annular gap between the pipes. Adhesive is injected between the pipes at locations inboard of the end of the outer pipe. After withdrawing the injectors, at least a portion of the liner pipe is expanded to close the gap and to bond the pipes together via the injected adhesive. Shims may be inserted into the gap between the pipes. A portion of the liner pipe inboard of the shims may be expanded radially while the shims constrain local radial expansion of an outboard portion of the liner pipe to maintain the gap for accommodating the injectors. Withdrawing the shims after injecting the adhesive allows radial expansion of the outboard portion to close the gap between the pipes.
