Definitions

• the present invention relates to a protection tube, in particular for protecting cables, which is secured at one end, at both ends or across the entire length of the element to be protected.
• These protection tubes are made of a number of threads braided or knitted together, in such a way that they provide appropriate mechanical and thermal protection.
• a shaping mandrel To secure the expanded end to the element to be protected a shaping mandrel must be placed and heat applied to said end in such a way that the adhesive melts and the joint is secured.
• This sheath presents the disadvantage of requiring an additional element aside from the sheath itself, the joint, to allow it to be secured to the element to be protected, which represents an additional cost.
• the protection tube of the present invention comprises a plurality of threads braided together or interwoven, and is characterised in that at least part of said threads comprises a heat shrink material, in other words, there are the following options:
• said hot melt material is preferably a hot melt resin or adhesive, or any suitable material.
• said hot melt resin or adhesive may be a polyurethane-based adhesive.
• At least part of said threads is made of a hot melt material.
• said hot melt material is synthetic rubber, or polyethylene, polypropylene, polyamide or polyester, with a low melt point.
• the protection tube of the present invention is a braided thread tube manufactured according to the following parameters:
• the protection tube of the present invention can be carried out with a braiding machine in the following way:
• All bobbins may be according to option 1) or may be 25% according to option 1) and the remaining 75% according to option 2), and any combination thereof.
• the material of the protection tube may be polyester or any other plastic material with polyamide.
• the protection tube of the present invention can be manufactured on circular gathering machines, circular warping machines, on braiding machines and on looms, using braiding, warp knitting, stitch gathering or fabric weaving techniques.
• the materials of the threads may be any plastic fibre, for example polyamide or polyester.
• the method used for heating and shrinking the tube can be any conventional method, for example, by means of hot air, infrared beam radiation, heat radiation, etc.
• the joint between the protection tube of the present invention and the element to be protected can be at one of its ends, at both ends, or across the entire length of the protection tube.
