Abstract

There is provided a liquid injection apparatus for use in a method of lining the internal surface of a pipe. The apparatus comprises a push car having a frame structure, a liquid tank for storing a necessary amount of liquid to be injected into the pipe, a liquid pump for pumping the necessary amount of liquid so as to inject the liquid into the pipe, and a liquid injection controlling device for controlling the pressure of the liquid being supplied through the liquid pump, for stopping the liquid injection after a predetermined amount of liquid has been injected into the pipe, and for stopping the liquid injection if the liquid pressure in the pipe changes beyond a predetermined range. The liquid tank, the liquid pump and the liquid injection controlling device are installed together in the push car so as to be easily movable.
