REINFORCED THERMOPLASTIC PIPE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240025105 titled 'REINFORCED THERMOPLASTIC PIPE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application for a pipe designed to be installed in the fluid circuit of an aircraft. The pipe is made of a thermoplastic material and has a cylindrical shape. It consists of a tube with two connection ends. The internal surface of the tube is in contact with the fluid, while the external surface is opposite to the internal surface. The pipe includes at least one reinforcement band that extends longitudinally on the external surface of a specific section of the tube, creating a reinforced portion.
- The pipe is made of a thermoplastic material.
- It has a cylindrical shape and two connection ends.
- The internal surface of the tube is in contact with the fluid.
- The external surface of the tube is reinforced with at least one longitudinal reinforcement band.
- The reinforcement band creates a reinforced portion of the tube.
Potential Applications:
- Aircraft fluid circuits
- Aerospace industry
- Fluid transportation systems
Problems Solved:
- Enhances the strength and durability of the pipe
- Provides reinforcement to prevent damage or failure in the fluid circuit
- Increases the reliability of the aircraft's fluid system
Benefits:
- Improved safety and reliability of the aircraft
- Longer lifespan of the pipe
- Reduced maintenance and replacement costs
- Enhanced performance of the fluid circuit
Original Abstract Submitted
a pipe intended to be mounted in a fluid circuit of an aircraft, the pipe comprising a tube and two connection ends, the tube being made of a thermoplastic material and having a cylindrical shape, the tube defining an internal surface, intended to be in contact with the fluid, and an external surface opposite the internal surface, the pipe comprising at least one reinforcement band extending longitudinally on the external surface of a longitudinal portion of the tube, so as to form a reinforced portion of the tube.
