Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of thermal insulation water pipes, and in particular relates to a multi-layer shelled pipe with sun protection, antifreeze, thermal insulation and heat insulation functions, and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art
[0002] When pipes (especially water pipes) are used in outdoor environments, they are susceptible to aging due to exposure to the sun in the summer, freezing in the winter, and the need to keep hot water warm.
[0003] The mainstream water pipes currently in use are generally divided into metal and plastic pipes. Metal pipes include galvanized iron, stainless steel, copper, and aluminum pipes, while plastic pipes are generally made of PPR, PE, or PVC. Metal pipes are not susceptible to sunlight when used outdoors, but are particularly vulnerable to freezing. Iron pipes (generally galvanized pipes) are prone to rust and have a short service life, while aluminum, copper, and stainless steel pipes are more expensive. Plastic pipes are currently more common, cost-effective, and easy to install. However, when used outdoors, they are not only vulnerable to sunlight, high temperatures, but also to freezing. Due to their instability and susceptibility to aging, their service life is also relatively short.
[0004] Currently, all kinds of water pipes are afraid of freezing when used in winter. The existing anti-freeze measures generally involve adding additional insulation cotton, wrapping with tin foil or aluminum foil after the pipes are installed. This insulation method is also used for hot water pipes, but the construction is relatively troublesome, the appearance consistency and aesthetics of the installed pipes are not high, and the service life is not significantly increased. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The present invention aims to provide a multi-layered, sun-proof, anti-freeze, thermally insulating, and heat-insulating pipe with a carapace structure and a method for manufacturing the same. This approach addresses the existing technical issues of various commonly used pipes, such as their sensitivity to sunlight and freezing, aging, complex insulation, and unsightly appearance. This solution enables the pipe to simultaneously provide sun protection, anti-freeze, thermal insulation, and aesthetics, significantly extending its service life.
[0006] In order to solve the technical problems of sun protection, antifreeze and thermal insulation during the use of pipelines, the present invention provides a multi-layer structured shelled pipeline with sun protection, antifreeze and thermal insulation functions, comprising a base material inner tube, a metal outer tube fixedly sleeved on the outside of the base material inner tube, the length of the metal outer tube being slightly shorter than the length of the base material inner tube, and the inner diameter of the metal outer tube being larger than the outer diameter of the base material inner tube.
[0007] Preferably, a temperature-resistant layer is fixedly provided between the substrate inner tube and the metal outer tube, and the temperature-resistant layer is made by uniformly coating a temperature-resistant and antifreeze coating on the inner wall of the metal outer tube.
[0008] Preferably, an isolation layer and a heat-insulating layer are fixedly sleeved in sequence between the inner tube of the substrate and the temperature-resistance layer.
[0009] Preferably, the base material inner tube is a PPR tube or a stainless steel tube.
[0010] Preferably, the metal outer tube is a thin-walled metal tube.
[0011] Preferably, the isolation layer can be made of plastic film, grease, wax or powder material.
[0012] Preferably, the heat insulation layer can be made of foamed filling material.
[0013] Preferably, pipelines or electric tracing devices can also be added to the heat insulation layer.
[0014] Another technical solution provided by the present application is: A manufacturing method of a multi-layer structure with a sunscreen, anti-freezing, heat insulation and heat preservation function and a pipe with a crust, comprising the steps of: Using an ordinary water pipe as the base material inner tube; Using a thin-walled metal tube slightly shorter than the base material inner tube as the metal outer tube, the inner diameter of the metal outer tube being larger than the outer diameter of the base material inner tube; Spraying a temperature-resistant and anti-freezing coating on the inner wall of the formed circular tube of the metal outer tube with a pipeline inner wall spraying machine to form a uniform temperature-resistant coating and drying it for later use. The thickness of the coating is controlled by spraying once or multiple times according to the use environment; Uniformly applying grease, paraffin or talcum powder-like powder on the outer wall of the base material inner tube or wrapping it with a plastic film to form an isolation layer; Sleeving several gear-shaped positioning brackets outside the base material inner tube covered with the isolation layer and distributing them at equal distances for positioning the middle space distance between the base material inner tube and the metal outer tube; Sleeving the metal outer tube with the dried temperature-resistant coating outside the base material inner tube equipped with the gear-shaped positioning brackets, and placing a perforated ring-shaped plug at each end of the metal outer tube flush with the two ends of the metal outer tube for blocking the foamed filling material; Using a glue injector to inject the foamed filling material into the middle space distance between the base material inner tube and the metal outer tube until the cavity between the outer wall of the base material inner tube and the inner wall of the metal outer tube is filled. After the foamed filling material dries, it becomes a finished sunscreen, anti-freezing, heat-insulating and heat-preserving pipe with a crust.
[0015] Another technical solution provided by the present application is: An installation method of a multi-layer structure with a sunscreen, anti-freezing, heat insulation and heat preservation function and a pipe with a crust, comprising the steps of: Cutting the pipe to the required length during installation; Peeling off the heat insulation layer, temperature-resistant layer and the metal outer tube for sunscreen protection outside the pipeline isolation layer at a few centimeters from the pipe end connection, and then it can be butt-connected and installed with pipe fittings.

For the first time, a metal outer pipe is used as a protective shell in a pipeline with a layered structure, and a temperature-resistant layer is added to the pipeline product for the first time.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts belong to the scope protected by the present application.
[0023] The design principle of the present invention is a finished product composed of five layers in total, including an isolation layer, a thermal insulation layer, a temperature-blocking layer, and a metal outer pipe for sun protection, which are added outside the pipe body based on the existing pipeline. Various commonly used pipelines can be made into a sun-proof, anti-freezing, heat-insulating and isolating pipeline with a crust by adding these several coatings outside the outer layer. Applying coatings, changing colors, laminating, or packaging on the finished pipe made according to this technology all belong to the application and protection scope of this technology.
[0024] Embodiment 1 As Figure 1 shown, the present invention provides a pipeline with a crust having a sun-proof, anti-freezing, heat-insulating and heat-isolating function with a multi-layer structure, including a base material inner pipe 1. The base material inner pipe 1 is a commonly used PPR pipe or stainless steel pipe. A metal outer pipe 5 is fixedly sleeved outside the base material inner pipe 1. The metal outer pipe 5 is a thin-walled metal pipe. The length of the metal outer pipe 5 is slightly shorter than the length of the base material inner pipe 1, and the inner diameter of the metal outer pipe 5 is larger than the outer diameter of the base material inner pipe 1.
[0025] Furthermore, a temperature-blocking layer 4 is fixedly arranged between the base material inner pipe 1 and the metal outer pipe 5. The temperature-blocking layer 4 is made by uniformly coating a temperature-blocking and anti-freezing coating on the inner wall of the metal outer pipe 5.
[0026] Furthermore, an isolation layer 2 and a thermal insulation layer 3 are sequentially and fixedly sleeved between the base material inner pipe 1 and the temperature-blocking layer 4.
[0027] Furthermore, the isolation layer 2 can be made of plastic film, grease, wax or powder material. The thermal insulation layer 3 can be made of foaming filling material. A pipeline or an electric tracing device can also be added to the thermal insulation layer 3.
[0028] Embodiment 2 As Figures 2 - 4As shown in the figure, the present invention provides a manufacturing method of a pipe with a crust, having a multilayer structure with functions of sun protection, anti-freezing, heat preservation and heat insulation. First, prepare materials: Use ordinary water pipes as the base material (commonly used PPR pipes and stainless steel water pipes); use thin-walled metal pipes with a length slightly shorter than the inner pipe of the existing base material as the outer pipe, and the inner diameter of the metal outer pipe is significantly larger than the outer diameter of the base material inner pipe (considering cost and construction convenience, the outer pipe material is selected as aluminum pipe or stainless steel pipe); two perforated ring-shaped plugs (generally made of plastic); several gear-shaped positioning brackets (generally made of plastic); temperature-resistant and anti-freezing coating; foaming filling material (generally foamed polyurethane); isolation layer (which can be plastic film, grease, wax and powder).
[0029] The manufacturing method steps are as follows: Use ordinary water pipes as the inner pipe of the base material; Use thin-walled metal pipes with a length slightly shorter than the inner pipe of the base material as the metal outer pipe, and the inner diameter of the metal outer pipe is larger than the outer diameter of the base material inner pipe; Spray the temperature-resistant and anti-freezing coating on the inner wall of the formed round pipe of the metal outer pipe with a pipeline inner wall spraying machine to form a uniform temperature-resistant coating and dry it for later use. The thickness of the coating is controlled by spraying once or multiple times according to the usage environment; Evenly apply grease, paraffin or talcum powder-like powder on the outer wall of the inner pipe of the base material or wrap it with a plastic film to form an isolation layer; Set several gear-shaped positioning brackets outside the inner pipe of the base material with the isolation layer covered, and distribute them at equal distances to position the middle space between the inner pipe of the base material and the metal outer pipe; Put the metal outer pipe with the dried temperature-resistant coating on the outside of the inner pipe of the base material equipped with gear-shaped positioning brackets, and place a perforated ring-shaped plug at each end of the metal outer pipe flush with the two ends of the metal outer pipe to block the foaming filling material; Use a glue injector to inject the foaming filling material into the middle space between the inner pipe of the base material and the metal outer pipe until the cavity between the outer wall of the inner pipe of the base material and the inner wall of the metal outer pipe is filled. After the foaming filling material dries, it becomes a finished product of a sun-protective, anti-freezing and heat-insulating pipe with a crust.
[0030] Example three, The present invention provides an installation method of a pipe with a crust having a multilayer structure with functions of sun protection, anti-freezing, heat preservation and heat insulation, including the steps: The two ends of the inner pipe of the base material are slightly longer than the metal outer pipe by 2 - 5 cm, which is convenient for connection and installation during use. When installing, cut the pipe according to the required length; At a few centimeters from the pipe end connection, use a knife and scissors to strip off the insulation layer, temperature-resistant layer and the metal outer pipe that plays a sun protection role outside the pipeline isolation layer, and then it can be butt-connected and installed with pipe fittings. It is applicable to metal pipes and plastic pipes without changing the original usage and connection methods of the pipe fittings. After the docking installation is completed, the exposed part of the pipe fitting joint is covered with two closing joint sheaths, and finished products of such joint sheaths are available on the market.
[0031] The finished pipe made in this application consists of five layers in total, namely a base material inner pipe, an isolation layer, a heat insulation layer, a temperature resistance layer, and a metal outer pipe for sun protection. The outermost layer, the metal outer pipe for sun protection, uses a thin-walled metal pipe. The metal outer pipe has a certain hardness and can maintain its shape without deformation. Due to its thin-walled feature, it is easy to cut and construct. The material used is not easily corroded. When used in outdoor environments, it is not afraid of high-temperature exposure, can protect the pipe structure and effectively extend the service life, playing the role of sun protection and long-term protection. The temperature resistance layer coated on the inner wall of the metal outer pipe adheres to the inner wall of the outer pipe and can effectively block the conduction of external cold and hot temperatures inward, mainly playing the role of anti-freezing. The foamed filling layer is relatively thick and is filled between the inner pipe and the outer pipe shell, which can enhance the compressive strength of the outer pipe and the inner pipe, further strengthening the anti-freezing effect of the pipe while having heat insulation. The isolation layer is located between the outer wall of the base material inner pipe and the heat insulation layer. Its main function is to easily peel off the heat insulation layer, temperature resistance layer, and metal outer pipe on the outer layer of the pipe head connection from the base material inner pipe during construction and pipe fitting docking installation. The finished product is applicable to indoor and outdoor pipes, hot water systems, etc.
[0032] A water pipe with sun protection, anti-freezing, and heat insulation functions, which consists of five layers in total, namely a base material inner pipe, an isolation layer, a heat insulation layer, a temperature resistance layer, and a metal outer pipe for sun protection, provided in this application. According to different regional requirements, one of the structures between the inner and outer pipes can be reduced. Without changing the structure and method, the materials used between the inner and outer pipes can be adjusted. According to environmental needs, pipelines or electric tracing devices can be added to the heat insulation layer.
[0033] The embodiment mainly describes straight pipes. For relatively long coiled pipes, in this way, the outer pipe can be changed into a corrugated form, and the same purpose can also be achieved.
[0034] A multi-layer structure pipe with a shell and having sun protection, anti-freezing, and heat insulation functions and its manufacturing method provided in this application. For the first time, a metal outer pipe is used as a protective shell in a layered-structured pipe, and for the first time, a temperature resistance layer is added to the pipe product. The pipe simultaneously has the abilities of sun protection, anti-freezing, and heat insulation. Due to the use of the metal outer pipe, the internal structure can be better protected, further extending the overall service life of the pipe. It makes the installation of pipes that require sun protection, anti-freezing, and heat insulation functions more convenient. The appearance consistency of the installed pipes is high, improving the aesthetics. Since no additional heat insulation is required, the labor cost is reduced, the complexity and waste of materials are reduced, which is beneficial to environmental protection.
