Abstract
A portable pipe fusion apparatus for attaching plastic side wall fittings e.g. tees, branch saddles to a plastic pipe of selected composition. This apparatus comprises a base plate with means to rigidly clamp the base plate to a pipe main. Two parallel, spaced support rods attached to the base plate at one end, and to a support plate across the other two ends. Movable clamp means guided to slide along the support rods with the axis of movement intersecting the axis of the pipe main. The movable clamp means is adapted to be attached to and hold various of the side wall fittings rigidly, so that the axes of the fittings intersect the axis of the main pipe. Drive screw means held in a quick release split nut means on the support plate, will force the movable clamp in the direction to contact the transverse pipe main. A hydraulic load cell is interposed between the drive screw and the movable clamp with an indicator which continually reads the force being applied between the moving clamp and the pipe main.
