METHOD OF CONNECTION OF COMPOSITE RODS Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC E04C5/07 

FIELD: manufacturing technology.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the production of reinforcing composite mesh, namely to non-metallic reinforcing materials, which are used for reinforcing stone and brickwork, concrete structures, for strengthening the soil, and also for protecting and extending roads’ service life. Method of joining the composite rods includes impregnating the filaments with a polymer, laying on the twisted impregnated uncured yarns of the cured composite rods, joining by mechanical pressing, curing and cooling the impregnated yarns and joints. Impregnated unconsolidated threads before joining with the cured composite rods are divided into two parts, sent to a crossing knot where both parts are bred in directions perpendicular to the axis of the threads, and cured polymeric composite rods are fed between them, then the uncured threads are mixed and the by rotation about the longitudinal axis, accompanied by compression of cured composite rods from two sides, gluing in places of contacts and partial filling of the formed voids by the polymer due to partial extrusion of the polymer.

EFFECT: method of joining composite rods provides high strength and reliability of the connection during its operation.
