Abstract

A partition is penetrated by a duct. The partition has a passage through which the duct passes. A fire stop sleeve is positioned in the passage and arranged around the duct. The fire stop sleeve includes a casing having a tubular form and one or more elements of intumescent material arranged on a side of the casing facing the duct. The casing is provided with at least one movable retaining member which lies within an outer contour of the casing. The movable retaining member is actuable by intumescent material such that, in the occasion that swelling of the intumescent material occurs, the retaining member is moved radially outward towards engagement with a passage wall in the partition so as to retain the sleeve in the passage.

A partition penetrated by a duct, the partition having a passage through which the duct passes, and a fire stop sleeve that is positioned in the passage and arranged around the duct, the fire stop sleeve comprising a metal casing having a tubular form and one or more elements of intumescent material arranged on a side of the casing facing the duct,

wherein the casing has at least one bendable lip formed therein, the lip being integrally connected with the casing and being defined by a cutout in the casing which partially surrounds the lip, the lip lying in the plane of the casing and being actuable by the intumescent material such that, in the occasion that swelling of the intumescent material occurs, the lip is bent out of the plane of the casing and moved radially outward towards engagement with a passage wall in the partition so as to retain the sleeve in the passage.

2. The partition according to claim 1 , wherein the sleeve has multiple bendable lips arranged distributed over the surface of the casing.

3. The partition according to claim 2 , wherein the bendable lips are arranged in a distribution over a tangential direction of the casing.
