状態で半円筒状分割体2a。Thereafter, using heating means consisting of a coil heater 9 and a power source 10 shown in FIG. Heat to above temperature. When heated in this way, the cylindrical body formed by combining the semi-cylindrical divided bodies 2a, 2b and the connecting pieces 3, 3 has a memorized memory due to the unidirectional memory effect of the shape memory alloy made of the material. Since the sealing member 7 tries to contract to its original shape, that is, to reduce its diameter to an inner diameter smaller than the outer diameter of the piping, the sealing member 7 adheres to the crack 8 with good sealing performance, and at this time, the force is reduced due to the contraction. The semi-cylindrical divided body 2a is in the suspended state.

以上の実施例においては、2分割の分割体2a。In the above embodiment, the divided body 2a is divided into two parts.
2bを円筒状に組み合わせて構成したが、これに限定さ
れるものではなく、例えば、3分割に構成してもよい。2b are combined into a cylindrical shape, but the structure is not limited to this, and for example, the structure may be divided into three parts.

。(Effects of the Invention) As described above, according to the present invention, a pipe repair member made of a shape memory alloy is divided into a set of divided bodies formed by dividing a cylindrical body in the axial direction, and adjacent divided bodies. Since it is composed of a connecting piece that is fitted into the joint of the body, it is possible to quickly repair the pipe with simple procedures without cutting the pipe to be repaired.
Since the engagement between the divided body and the connecting piece is maintained tightly, the strength of the connecting portion is sufficiently maintained.
そして、連結部が従来のものと異なり円筒体の表面に対
してフラットになっており、突出する部分がなくなるこ
とから、軽量化の要請が高い部分の補修に適している。Moreover, unlike conventional ones, the connecting part is flat against the surface of the cylindrical body, and there is no protruding part, so it is suitable for repairing parts where there is a strong demand for weight reduction.
