Method for lining a branch pipe of an underground pipe

摘要

A method is proposed for lining a branch pipe from the main pipe; in particular a special sealing mechanism is adopted in attaching the collar of a liner bag onto the flange of a fluid pressure sealing nozzle: stopper tacks are embedded in the collar at appropriate locations, each of the stopper tacks having its bottom end exposed from the back face of the collar and connected with a string; the back face of the collar of the branch pipe liner bag is faced with the upper face of the flange of the fluid pressure sealing nozzle, which comprises a hollow cylindrical part, the flange extending perpendicularly from the side of the cylindrical part, at least one endless sealant laid on the upper face of the flange, and a string puller provided in the flange; the strings are engaged with the string puller; the string puller pulls the strings so that the collar and the flange are moved toward each other until sufficient sealing effect is obtained.
