  • Patent number: 8678043
    Abstract: A method for repairing and strengthening pipes by creating a structural reinforced composite liner within the existing pipe. The liner is created by helically winding a tensile reinforcement material on the inside wall of a pipe and encapsulating it in a hardening matrix material. The reinforcement material is helically wound around the inside wall of the pipe by an installation device. The installation device is configured to relieve and/or prevent the development of torsional stress in the reinforcement material that is created by the act of helically winding it onto the inside wall of a pipe, allowing the reinforcement material to lay flat against the pipe wall without twisting or buckling. The structural reinforced composite can be configured to supplement the strength of the existing pipe or to function as a stand-alone pipe within the existing pipe.

  • Patent number: 5853643
    Abstract: A method for encapsulating an electric motor in resinous material by an injection molding process comprises providing a motor assembly having an armature and associated drive shaft supported at one end by a bearing bracket. The motor is inserted into a cavity of a multi-piece mold in which one part of the mold has a bore for slidingly receiving the motor shaft with the bearing bracket in close abutment with the mold. The motor is thus supported centrally of the mold cavity. Liquid resinous material is injected into the mold preferably from a side of the motor opposite the motor shaft such that the liquid material forces the motor bearing bracket against the apertured part of the mold. The resinous material is thereby prevented from entering into the bearing bracket into contact with the motor shaft. In order to positively locate the motor in a predetermined orientation within the mold cavity, the bearing bracket may be provided with a small recess into which a cooperating projection of the mold is received.
