Definitions

  • a tubular sleeve is placed over a pair of aligned endbutted steel bars.
  • the steel bars are compressed by totally surrounding jaws to cold-flow the tubular sleeve around the steel bars over the entire surrounded surfaces thereof; preferably, the tubular sleeve has internal, inclined serrations so that, upon compression, axial forces arise tending to press the steel bars towards each other; steel wires may be inserted prior to the compression step t0 further increase the tensile strength of the joint.
  • the present invention relates to the butt-joining of steel bars and more particularly to butt-joining of structural steel members such as are used in connection with reinforced concrete, to provide a rapid and durable process of joining steel bars which can be carried out right at a construction site, with a minimum of expense, and still provide joints having full load-bearing strength both in tension, and in compression equal of that of the bars themselves.
  • connections made by adhesion with epoxy resins are even more sensitive to contamination by moisture or dirt.
  • the heat-resistance of such connections is very low and further little is known about the properties of resins for long periods of time.
  • End-butted rods can be joined by electrical butt-welding, or may be overlapped and welded by ordinary arcwelding. If the bars are to be placed into tension, a specially formed sleeve is pushed over the butted ends, then electrically Welded to the butted ends of the rods. Such a process can, however, be carried out only in a shop and it is not possible to use it on bars already cast into cement. It is time-consuming to make the electrically welded connections, they require highly skilled and trained welding personnel and careful supervision and inspection. Additionally, the welded joints decrease the load carrying capacity of the rods, with a given diameter, by about 20% It has also been proposed to interconnect a pair of abutting steel rods by a cold-ow process.
  • a tubular sleeve is slipped over the two rods, and pressed thereagainst.
  • the known process is comparatively expensive, requires cornplicated internally toothed surfaces formed with clamping jaws and deformable inserts, which inserts supposedly cold-How upon compression of the sleeve. It has been found that substantial portions of the packing, intended to cold-ow, remains at the point between the rods, so that their load-bearing capacity is lost, and that the interior parts of the sleeves contact the rods only at points along the toothed inserts, leaving hollow' spaces which cannot accept any longitudinal forces.
  • Such joints are, therefore, expensive and complicated and, since the endabutting rods do not have end-to-end Contact, commercially as well as technically uneconomical joints will be produced.
  • a tubular sleeve is placed over two, abutting rods.
  • the inner surface of the sleeve, or the outer surface of the rod has inclined serrations thereon, the direction of inclination being such that the rods are pressed to gether; for example, the rods, in accordance with custom, are cross-ribbed or have external projections.
  • Radial pressure is applied to the sleeve across the entire cross-sec ⁇ tional area of the walls thereof, exclusively directed in a plane transverse to the axial direction of the sleeves and rods, by means of compression jaws, operating with such high pressure that the sleeve-material will flow practically at the entire circumferential surfaces adjacent the ends of the rods, and thus join the rods tightly and non-releasably together.
  • the tubular sleeve has, at its inner surface, toothed regions, directed in opposite directions in such a manner that axial forces will arise tending to push the reinforcement rods together when the sleeve is compressed transversely to the axial direction.
  • toothed regions directed in opposite directions in such a manner that axial forces will arise tending to push the reinforcement rods together when the sleeve is compressed transversely to the axial direction.
  • each one of the rods has a half-sleeve pressed thereon having a pre-finished end, ush 'with the end of the rods; to provide a completely ush surface, if feasible, an additional surface preparation step may be used.
  • the two rods, with their end-sleeves thereover, are then surrounded by one of the tubular sleeves which are cold-worked around rods and end sleeves.
  • the method of the present invention enables the production of a simple, strong joint which can be made directly at a construction site, by cold-flowing.
  • the sleeve may be of any metal, for example aluminum, soft carbon steel, or pure iron, having each one of the rods to be joined inserted therein to half its length.
  • the sleeve is then placed in a pressure tool, having a semi-circular recess therein (or, alternatively, a portable tool is placed around the sleeve, in situ).
  • the half-round recess is preferably slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the sleeve.
  • a similar counter die is placed against the rst work-die and the two dies are pressed together by means of a hydraulic press until the material of the sleeve completely covers and surrounds all surfaces of the ends of the rods. Pressures of from 50 to 250 tons are necessary.
  • the junction can be used immediately after pressing, and both rods are connected together by a joint strong in both tension and compression.
  • the radial forces are supplied by magnetic deformation, or by explosion pressure over liquid media.
  • Constructional steel according to the usual specification can be used, as well as the soft steels of reinforcement rods, the semi-hard steels and hard steels (see specifications DIN 1045, Groups I, IIa Illa, IIIb, IVa and semi hard steel of Groups II and III).
  • the present invention is particularly applicable to ribbed reinforcement rods, for example cold-deformed (twisted) torsional steel.
  • Self-hardening manganese and silicon containing constructional steel can also be butt-joined in accordance with the process of the present invention.
  • the diameter of the rods to be joined is determined by the eventual use, customarily between 7 and 26 mm.
  • Rods of small diameter for example 14 mm.
  • Larger rods may require more pressure steps, axially located one-behind-the-other.
  • pressure is applied in line with one end of the rods, and a second application of pressure at the opposite side of the other rod.
  • the time duration of application of pressure, to provide for cold-liowing, is in the order of a minute.
  • a manometer can be used as a measure to sense the compression of the sleeve.
  • the material to be used for the sleeves is chosen in accordance with the wall thickness left when passing over ribs or projections on the rods to be joined, as well as in dependence on the strength requirements of the joint, the availability of compressive force, and the eventual outer diameter of the sleeve.
  • Steel sleeves only require 26 of the wall thickness for equal strength with respect to aluminum sleeves.
  • the compressive force necessary when using steel is approximately less than that for aluminum.
  • Rods of, for example, 1 inch diameter, joined in accordance with the present invention may utilize a sleeve having an internal diameter of 30 mm., a length of about 4 inches and are made of aluminum.
  • the outer diameter of the sleeve will be 66 mm, and, when utilizing two pressure steps, pressure of 200 tOnS Will be applied, Which Will correspond to a per-unit pressure of 7.5 to 8 t./cm.2. lf, however, steel is chosen as the material for the sleeve, an external diameter of 42 mm. su'lces. A single application of pressure of to 160 tons (corresponding to 6-7 t./cm.2) can be used. In both instances, the sleeve material will fully ilow between ribs or beads on the ends of the rods. A strain test was made; the strength of the junction is greater than that of the rods themselves, the break occurring in the rod beyond the junction.
  • the pressure must be applied sequentially in order to retain the required per-unit pressure, for example four sequential pressing steps may be necessary, on two-each axially shifted points surrounding the rods to be connected.
  • the choice of the material for the sleeves can be influenced by the thermal loading and thermal resistance depending on building code requirements, for example in case of re.
  • the limit for steel is at about 400 C.
  • the limit for aluminum is at about 200 C., or even less.
  • Steel sleeves can be made of ordinary soft steel, that is soft carbon steel or over 0.1 percent C (specification DIN 2391).
  • the sleeves may be made of precision tubes manufactured from seamless drawn carbon steel tubing. If pure iron is used, the wall thicknes of the sleeve has to be suitably chosen to compensate for the lower strength thereof. If high thermal loading is not expected, sleeves may be made of pure or alloyed aluminum, which can be pressed readily and which ows. A complete, tight junction is obtained upon application of pressure causing the aluminum to flow since, after metal had been worked to cold-flow, no spring-back will occur.
  • the joint made in accordance with the present invention provides for rods which are non-releasably connected together, that is the rods can transfer compression as well as tensile forces to their fullest extent.
  • the rods In order to provide for full tensile transfer of strength, the rods should have suitable shear surfaces in order to securely carry shear forces. At least, the surface should be roughened at the outside, in order to inhibit longitudinal shifting. The normal surface roughness of naturally hardened steel is suitable.
  • the internal surface of the sleeves can be toothed, with the teeth directed inwardly in order to provide for axial forces against the rods upon application of radial forces.
  • the pressure jaws may be formed with slightly double-conical outer surfaces in order to prevent sleeve material from flowing away from the butt joint, causing lateral shifting of the rods.
  • the sleeve, itself, can be slightly conical as required.
  • the sleeve may, in the region where the rods butt against each other, have a slight internal groove or recess in order to further prevent penetration of sleeve material between the rods and thus their separation.
  • the sleeves may be pre-heated in order to decrease the forces necessary by the pressure jaws.
  • the method according to the present invention may be used in order to join steel rods of any desirable length, for example, in reinforced cement construction, and before the reinforcing rods are built into the cement forms.
  • any kind of structural elements can be joined by means of butt-joints directly.
  • the joints of the present invention have the advantage that the sleeve is simple, inexpensive, and largely insensitive against minor contamination by dirt or moisture. The transfer of force does not occur by adhesion, but rather by connection to the joining member.
  • the junction can be made in any position, vertically, horizontally, or at any desired angle, and may be made by hand presses customary for clamping and joining of wire ropes. Such portable hand presses are particularly suitable for the joining of reinforcing rods directly at a construction site although, in shop operation, stationary hydraulic presses with suitable dies, corresponda ing to the various rod-diameters, would be preferred.

  • the internal surface of the sleeve is completely in contact, throughout its entire circumference, with the surface of the rods 1, 2.
  • a small flash or ridge at the juncture of the two die parts 4, 5, is removed by the compression operation, it may remain in place, or may be removed by any other suitable tool.
  • FIG. illustrates a sleeve 8, having on both of its sleeve halves internal teeth 9 inclined in opposite direction in order to provide for axially directed forces in the direction of arrows 10 to press the ends of rods 1, 2 against each other.
  • the sleeve is further formed with a central circular groove 11 which prevents penetration of metal into gap between the rods to be joined together.
