  • Patent number: 9249918
    Abstract: A first sealing body and a second sealing body made of a resiliently expandable material, such as Kevlar-reinforced rubber, are connected by an intermediate piece that, having a larger wall thickness, is made of the same material, and is flexible, thereby providing the device excellent ability to pass through pipe bends. Together they surround a contiguous cavity into which pressurised air can be introduced via a pressurised air connection disposed on an end plate at a rear end of the device, to expand the diameters of the sealing bodies whereupon the latter tightly close off a test space in a pipe connection. A material feeding connection is connected to a discharge opening in a threaded bushing connecting the intermediate piece to the second sealing body, and a cable connection is connected to a camera facing to the outside that is attached to the bushing.
