A pig for pipelines, in particular in the form of a cleaning or inspection pig, with a central unit and at least one, in the longitudinal direction of the central unit, front and one rear sealing unit. The pig also includes at least one sensor device comprising a plurality of sensor arms, which is provided in particular for the measurement of a geometry or condition of the pipeline. At least one of the sealing units and preferentially the central unit are produced from a plastic material at least in sections. At least one sensor arm, distant from the central unit, is connected to one of the sealing units.

Pig for pipelines

A collar for a cleaning or inspection pig which is movable in a pipeline and through the latter. The collar may include an inner fastening region, with respect to a longitudinal center axis of the collar, for fixing the collar to the cleaning or inspection pig. The collar may also include a contact region which is provided for contact against a pipe wall and which is part of an outer segment which is connected to the inner fastening region. The inner fastening region is preferably in advance of the contact region with respect to a direction of movement (F) of the pig. The collar comprises an anchoring segment, the first end of which is arranged on the outer segment and the other, second end of which is arranged, with respect to the longitudinal center axis, further toward the latter and trailing the first end with respect to a direction of movement of the pig. A pig for cleaning or inspecting pipeline pipes may also be provided.

Collar for an inspection or cleaning pig

A pig segment for actively propelling a pig in elongated hollow bodies, preferably in gas and oil pipelines. The segment includes a drive comprising at least one motor, at least one supporting element by which the pig segment can be supported on an inner surface of the hollow body, and at least one bearing element that is movable along a longitudinal axis of the pig segment by the motor. The supporting element is pivotably arranged on the bearing element such that the supporting element can adopt a supporting position In the supporting position, a supporting force is produced relative to a force exerted on the bearing element in a longitudinal direction. The invention also relates to a pig with a pig segment of this type.

Pig segment and pig

A cleaning pig for a pipeline for long-distance transportation of a fluid material is advanced in the pipeline in a travel direction by the fluid material transported in the pipeline. The cleaning pig has a pig body and two collars connected to the pig body and spaced apart from one another. The pig body and the collars fill a pipe cross-section of the pipeline. An intermediate space is delimited between the two collars. A pressure opening is arranged at a trail end of the pig body in the travel direction. A pressure conduit connects the pressure opening to the intermediate space. A suction device is arranged in the intermediate space. A suction outlet is connected by a suction conduit to the suction device. The pressure conduit is connected to at least one jet opening directed with a jet action against an inner wall of the pipeline.
