Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrofusion pipe fittings technology, and in particular to an electrofusion direct pipe fitting with a melting zone detection device for melting pressure and melting temperature. Background Technology

[0002] To meet the rapid installation requirements of steel wire mesh reinforced pipes and water supply pipes, electrofusion direct pipe fittings are formed by combining injection-molded pipe blanks with resistance wire. Programmable welding is used: a type of plastic (polyethylene) pipe fitting that melts and connects through the temperature generated by the current. Welding is performed using constant pressure or constant current welding (i.e., controlling the welding pressure, welding current, and welding time to control the welding progress). In polyethylene piping systems, approximately 15% to 20% are pipe fittings. Polyethylene piping system fittings are mainly divided into two types: hot-melt fittings and electrofusion fittings. Due to price considerations, hot-melt fittings are used more frequently in engineering applications than electrofusion fittings. However, electrofusion fittings play an important and irreplaceable role in engineering and maintenance, especially during construction, where they are less affected by external environmental and human factors, thus offering better reliability and being more popular with users.

[0003] However, in the process of electrofusion pipe welding, judging the overall welding effect by controlling the welding parameters in sections and observing the bulging state of the column during the welding process has limitations: first, it is impossible to observe the fusion status between the pipe fitting fusion zone and the outer surface of the pipe through data; second, it is impossible to accurately judge the internal cooling status after fusion, thus affecting the welding time and the evaluation of the welding effect.

[0004] In view of the above, this utility model is hereby proposed. Utility Model Content

[0012] Furthermore, the fusion pressure detection assembly includes a transmitter pressure sensor for detecting the fusion pressure at the fusion zone position during welding. One end of the transmitter pressure sensor is mounted on the pipe body, and the other end is connected to a transmitter instrument.
