  • Patent number: 4912358
    Abstract: A device for stripping and receiving cladding material from an elongated body includes a flexible bag means having an upper portion adapted to surround a first section of an elongated body and a lower portion extending below the first section of the elongated body for receiving and retaining cladding material removed therefrom and first and second laterally extendable sleeve members which are attached to opposing sides of the upper portion of the bag means and adapted to surround adjacent sections of the first section of the elongated body. The bag means and sleeve members define a sealed enclosure about the elongated body sections. Each sleeve member has an expandable length greater than adjacent sections of the elongated body which they surround whereby the extendable sleeve members permit the bag means to be moved into positions below each of the adjacent sections of the elongated body surrounded by each sleeve member to receive and retain cladding material stripped therefrom.
