摘要:
A fluid reticulation system for a composite component production assembly, the production assembly including at least one pressure chamber (25) having a chamber wall (21) locatable adjacent a composite lay-up or mold, at least a portion of the chamber wall (21) being resiliently deformable, the fluid reticulation system being locatable within the inner volume of the pressure chamber (25) and including means (5) for distributing fluid towards an inner surface (22) of the chamber wall as the fluid enters the pressure chamber.

Apparatus 200 for forming a composite component is disclosed, the apparatus comprising: a deformable mould tool 204 that at least partially defines a mould cavity 212; an interface layer 222 formed on an external surface of the mould tool 204; and at least two peristaltic actuators 206, mounted to contact the interface layer 222 and to generate a peristaltic pressure wave in the mould tool 204. The peristaltic actuators may comprise rollers 206, pistons 306 or bi-metallic blocks 406. A method of forming a composite component is also disclosed, the method employing a mould tool 204 that at least partially defines a mould cavity 212. The method comprises: placing reinforcing fibres into the mould cavity 212, forcing a matrix material into the mould cavity 212 through the reinforcing fibres, and generating a peristaltic pressure wave within the mould tool 204 during forcing of the matrix material into the mould cavity 212.
摘要:
A process and apparatus for producing perforated composite structures, such as acoustic skins suitable for aircraft engine nacelle and duct components. The process includes placing a mat member, a non-impregnated fabric member, and a resin film on a tool surface so that pins disposed on the mat member project through the fabric member and resin film to define holes therein. The fabric member is between the mat member and resin film, and the fabric member and resin film define a stack that conforms to the mat member and tool surface. A caul member is then placed on the stack so that apertures in the caul member are penetrated by the pins. The stack is heated to melt the resin film and cause molten resin to infuse the fabric member and yield a resin-infused fabric stack, after which the molten resin within the resin-infused fabric stack is at least partially cured.
摘要:
A stamper is formed so that a thickness between a concave/convex pattern formation surface, where a concave/convex pattern is formed, and a rear surface gradually decreases in a predetermined area of the stamper. The predetermined area corresponds to an area where pressure is likely to be concentrated when the concave/convex pattern of the stamper is used to form a concave/convex pattern on a substrate. A method of forming a concave/convex pattern uses such stamper, and a method of manufacturing an information recording medium uses a concave/convex pattern formed by such method.

摘要:
A cushioning material for a heat press having a non-woven fiber composed of a fiber web (4), wherein the fiber web (4) comprises a first fiber (4a) containing softening temperature as a main component and a second fiber (4b) containing a second component having a relatively high softening temperature as a main component, and wherein the non-woven fabric has been compressed at a temperature being the softening temperature of the first component or higher and being the softening temperature of the second component or lower.
摘要:
There is provided a method for manufacturing a structural body comprising: a structural body formation step of forming the structural body by combining a plurality of constituent members through a bonding adhesive; a closed space formation step of disposing the structural body into a pressurizing or heating unit, forming a closed space with at least one of the structural body and the pressurizing or heating unit, and charging an elastic body into the closed space; a hardening step of fixing or hardening the bonding adhesive through the elastic body by the pressurizing or heating unit; and a discharge step of discharging the elastic body from the closed space.
摘要:
A narrow susceptor is incorporated into the die in the vicinity of a bondline between two or more parts in an induction heating workcell. When the induction coil of the workcell is energized, the susceptor heats and preferentially heats the parts near the bondline. The preferential heating is localized at the bondline and reduces energy losses otherwise expended to heat large thermal masses in the workcell or to heat the entire parts.
