Method to make a curved tubular element in order to convey abrasive materials such as concrete or suchlike, and curved tubular element thus obtained

摘要

Method to make a curved tubular element in order to convey abrasive materials such as concrete or suchlike, which comprises a first step of making at least a curved component made of a material highly resistant to wear, having an arched transverse development comprised between 90° and 360°, a second step of inserting the curved component into a shaping mold with a molding surface with a shape mating with the outer surface of at least a part of the curved tubular element to be made, so that, together with the molding surface, the curved component defines a casting chamber, and a third step in which material with a low resistance to wear is cast in the casting chamber in order to make, externally to the curved component, at least a part of a tubular body of the curved tubular element.

1. Method to make a curved tubular element in order to convey abrasive materials, the method comprising:
providing at least a first curved component made of a material highly resistant to wear, having an arched transverse development between 90° and 360°, inserting said first curved component, which forms an inner curved reinforcement component of the curved tubular element to be made, into a forming mold provided with a molding surface having a shape mating with an outer surface of at least a part of the curved tubular element to be made, so that, together with said molding surface, an outer surface of said first curved component defines a casting chamber outside the first curved component, casting a metal material with a low resistance to wear in said casting chamber in order to make, externally to said first curved component, and directly in contact therewith, at least a part of a second curved component which forms an outer tubular body of said curved tubular element to be made, and after the cast material is solidified, extracting said curved tubular element while having the inner curved reinforcement component directly present inside the outer tubular body from said forming mold thus obtaining said curved tubular element.
