ABSTRACT:
A hand held apparatus for joining coaxially two lengths of small diameter plastic pipe comprises two parts. One part forms a first handle, and is attached to a horizontal frame at right angles. The frame holds at one end a stationary clamp into which one end of a first pipe can be inserted and locked in position. The other end holds a movable clamp which is a cylindrical tubular device into which the second pipe is positioned and clamped. The tube of the second clamp slides axially in a cylindrical portion attached to the second end of the frame at the point of junction of the handle and the frame. A second handle comprises an arm with a U-shaped portion. One end of the second handle is pivoted at a selected point on the frame so that the second handle can rotate about the pivot which is perpendicular to the plane of the first handle and frame. The rotatable handle is adapted to reciprocate the movable clamp so as to bring the facing end of the second pipe towards the facing end of the first pipe. Means are provided for facing, heating and fusing the resulting molten ends of the two pipes.
