Problems solved by technology

In this case, it is difficult to accurately predict the replacement timing of the hose, and the following disadvantages occur: the wear progresses beyond expectation and the hose cracks or breaks before replacement, or the hose that can still be used sufficiently is replaced.

no. 1 approach

[0040] The conveying hose according to the first embodiment of the present invention is used to convey solids such as plastic pellets, such as figure 1 and figure 2As shown, it is constituted by integrating a synthetic resin reinforcing core 2 and a synthetic resin hose wall 1 .

[0041] The hose wall 1 is composed of a colored outer layer 3 with light transmission, a colored inner layer 4 with light transmission, and a colorless middle layer with light transmission between the outer layer 3 and the inner layer 4. 5 are stacked along the radial direction of the hose. The inner and outer peripheral surfaces of the hose wall 1 are formed in a substantially smooth cylindrical shape, the thickness in the radial direction of the hose is made uniform over the entire circumference, and the hose wall 1 is formed in a translucent and colored state over the entire circumference.

[0042] Specifically, the outer layer 3 uses a material whose inner and outer peripheral surfaces are for...

no. 2 approach

[0064] Such as Figure 4As shown, the transportation hose according to the second embodiment of the present invention does not have the intermediate layer 5 in which the reinforcing core 2 is embedded in the hose wall 1 . The hose wall 1 is formed by overlapping and laminating a yellow transparent outer layer 3 and a blue transparent inner layer 4 in the radial direction of the hose. In addition, the thickness of the inner layer 4 in the tube radial direction is set to be 20 to 80% of the thickness of the tube wall 1 in the tube direction. Further, a colorless and transparent reinforcing core 2 is integrally formed on the outer peripheral surface of the outer layer 3 of the hose wall 1 at intervals in the hose axial direction and spirally wound.

[0065] The cross-sectional shape of the reinforcement core 2 in the hose radial direction is a substantially elliptical shape long in the hose radial direction, and the width in the hose axial direction of the inner half thereof gra...

no. 3 approach

[0073] The transportation hose of the third embodiment is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the outer layer 3 has thick portions 3 a and thin portions 3 b alternately continuous in the hose axial direction, and the inner layer 4 has a substantially constant thickness over substantially the entire length in the hose axial direction. In addition, the cross-sectional shape of the reinforcing core 2 in the hose radial direction is substantially quadrangular.

[0074] The thick-walled portion 3a and the thin-walled portion 3b of the outer layer 3 are continuously formed in a spiral shape along the outer peripheral surface of the inner layer 4, the thick-walled portion 3a is arranged along the reinforcing core 2, and the thin-walled portion 3b is compressed by the reinforcing core 2. state. Therefore, although the hose wall 1 is green and transparent as a whole, a spiral pattern emerges due to the difference in shades of yellow between the thick portion 3 a and the thin portion 3 b o...

Abstract

Provided is a transport hose having a wear detection function which is capable of simply and reliably detecting the degree of wear of the outer surface and the inner surface of a hose wall only by visual inspection from the outside. This transport hose serves to transport solid matter or fluid matter and is provided with a hose wall (1) made of synthetic resin and formed by laminating a yellow transparent outer layer (3) and a blue transparent or red transparent inner layer (4). It is configured in such a way that the color of the hose wall (1) gradually changes according to the degree of wear of the outer layer (3) and that of the inner layer (4).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a conveying hose used for conveying various solids or fluids, in particular to a conveying hose having a wear detection function capable of detecting the wear degree of the hose wall. Background technique [0002] In general, synthetic resin transport hoses for transporting various solids or fluids wear the inner surface of the hose wall over time as they come into contact with solids or fluids. In addition, not only the inner surface side of the hose wall is abraded, but also the outer surface side of the hose wall is abraded as the hoses rub against each other and come into contact with foreign objects. If such abrasion of the hose wall continues to progress, cracks or fractures will eventually occur, causing leakage accidents. [0003] In order to prevent such problems before they happen, the hoses are usually replaced with new ones at regular intervals. In this case, it is difficult to accurately predict the repla...
