Above-mentioned twisted roller 11a, 11b are metal, among Fig. 2 the axis of rotation of the twisted roller 11b of the axis of rotation of the twisted roller 11a of upside and downside be not towards with the direction of the moving direction quadrature of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9, but set for, on horizontal plane separately, depart from the set angle of above-mentioned orthogonal direction towards opposite directions.In addition, on the surface of twisted roller 11a, 11b, be formed with the concavo-convex 11c that is processed to form by annular knurl.In the present embodiment, the spacing of concavo-convex 11c is made as 0.3~3mm, preferably is made as 0.63~1.57mm, and the height of concavo-convex 11c (from the bottom of recess to the height on the summit of protuberance) is set at 0.15~1.5mm.
Shown in arrow among Fig. 2, twisted roller 11a, 11b all are driven in rotation towards the direction of extracting fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 out.And, can adjust twisted roller 11a, 11b interval each other, to make it to become the minimum interval of setting corresponding to the diameter of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9.Adjust by this, can be prevented the effect of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 breakages.
Under the situation of the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of present embodiment, these twisted rollers 11a, 11b all are driven in rotation, and still, also can drive some rotations and another is rotated freely.According to such structure, owing to structure becomes simply, so have the economic effect of saving equipment cost.Certainly, the extraction power of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 will die down, but owing to can obtain suitable extraction power, so also can be practical.
Under the situation of the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of present embodiment, these twisted rollers 11a, 11b all can be to direction actions approaching with respect to the roller that cooperates side and that leave, but also some rollers can be designed to can be with respect to another roller near fix another roller with leaving.According to such structure,, thereby can obtain saving the favourable economic effect of equipment cost because the mechanism approaching and departure motion of control twisted roller 11a, 11b becomes simple in structure.
Above-mentioned twisted keeps roller 12a, 12b and above-mentioned twisted roller 11a, 11b to be made of metal equally.In addition, the twisted of upside keeps the twisted of the axis of rotation of roller 12a and downside to keep the axis of rotation of roller 12b among Fig. 3, on horizontal plane parallel to each other respectively towards different directions.Specifically, above-mentioned each axis of rotation is configured to around with the special datum line of fiber-reinforced resin strand moving direction quadrature, depart from the direction of set angle respectively round about.And, on the surface of twisted maintenance roller 12a, 12b, form the concavo-convex 12c that is processed to form by annular knurl.
Shown in arrow among Fig. 3, twisted keeps roller 12a, 12b all to be driven in rotation towards the direction of extracting fiber-reinforced resin strand out.And, can adjust twisted and keep roller 12a, 12b interval each other, to make it to become the minimum interval of setting corresponding to the diameter of fiber-reinforced resin strand.Certainly, by adjusting at interval, can prevent the breakage of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9.
In addition, under the situation of the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of present embodiment, these twisteds keep roller 12a, 12b all to be driven in rotation, and still, also can be designed to, and drive some rotations and another is rotated freely.According to such structure, because twisted keeps the structure of the drive unit of roller 12a, 12b to become simply, so have to saving the favourable economic effect of equipment cost.
Under the situation of the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of present embodiment, these twisteds keep roller 12a, 12b all can with respect to the roller that cooperates side near and leave, but, also can be designed to some rollers with respect to approaching another roller of fixing with leaving of another roller.According to such structure, the mechanism approaching and departure motion of control twisted roller 12a, 12b becomes simple in structure, thereby can obtain being beneficial to the economic effect of saving equipment cost.
As make twisted roller 11a, 11b, twisted keep roller 12a, 12b to opposite side carry out near and the roller actuating mechanism of departure motion, can adopt for example spring, cylinder, hydraulic cylinder etc.For example, if the roller actuating mechanism is a spring, then can adjust the pressing force that each roller applies fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 by the deflection of adjusting spring; If the roller actuating mechanism is a cylinder, then can adjust the pressing force that each roller applies fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 by adjusting air pressure; If the roller actuating mechanism is a hydraulic cylinder, then can adjust the pressing force that each roller applies fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 by adjusting hydraulic pressure.
In addition, for example can utilize mechanical mechanism described later to adjust each twisted roller 11a, 11b interval and twisted each other and keep roller 12a, 12b interval each other.Each roller minimum interval is each other set corresponding to the diameter of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9.This minimum interval is set in 70~90% the scope of diameter of fortified resin twisted wire 9 usually, and the degree of minimum interval is decided by the power of the mechanical strength of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9.Specifically, when constituting fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 by the high strength material, the minimum interval is set at the value of close 70% in above-mentioned 79~90% scopes, and when constituting fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 by low intensive material, the minimum interval is set at the value near 90%.
Be used to adjust these twisted rollers 11a, 11b interval or twisted each other and keep the roller minimum interval guiding mechanism 20 at roller 12a, 12b interval each other, be structure shown in Figure 2.
That is to say that roller minimum interval guiding mechanism 20 has: be used to utilize roller 11a, 11b fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 to be applied the hydraulic cylinder 21 of pressing force; Elevator platform 22, it utilizes bar flexible of this hydraulic cylinder 21 and lifting, and, have and rotate the pair of rolls Support bracket 22a of the diaxon end of backing roll freely; Dogbolt 23, it is threaded over to carve and is located in the not shown negative thread at these elevator platform 22 two ends, and is being threadedly engaged with locking nut 24.That is to say,, adjust dogbolt 23, change the butt position of the pedestal of the bottom of this dogbolt 23 and supporting elevation frame 22 thus from elevator platform 22 overhang outstanding towards the below corresponding to the screw-in amount of dogbolt 23.The position of moving the elevator platform 22 that is limited by pedestal downwards is defined as roller minimum interval each other.Moving of elevator platform 22 can be undertaken by the stroke of adjusting above-mentioned hydraulic cylinder 21.
Effect to the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of first embodiment describes below.That is to say, utilize to divide 8 pairs of silk devices to import to and carry out shredding with the reinforcement that fiber 1 constitutes with fibre bundle 3 by many reinforcements in the crosshead 5 from bobbin 4, and, make to be impregnated into this reinforcement from extruder 6 continuous molten resin supplied materials 2 and to use the fibre bundle 3.The resin-impregnated fiber bundle 3 of having flooded molten resin material 2 utilizes twisted roller 11a, 11b to carry out twisted on one side, as fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 by outlet nozzle 5a from crosshead 5 extracted on one side.And then, utilize twisted to keep roller 12a, 12b that the fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 of twisted is applied extraction power, and apply and above-mentioned twisted roller 11a, the equidirectional twisted power of 11b.Then, utilizing comminutor 13 that fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 is both cut into measured length forms and is particle.
The manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of first embodiment utilizes above-mentioned operation and makes particle from fiber-reinforced resin strand 9.At this, twisted roller 11a, 11b and twisted keep roller 12a, 12b all to be made of metal, and, utilize annular knurl processing to form concavo-convex in its surface.
Therefore, manufacturing installation according to the fiber-reinforced resin strand of first embodiment, owing to utilizing annular knurl processing to be formed on lip-deep concavo-convex, increased the coefficient of friction between these twisted rollers 11a, 11b, twisted maintenance roller 12a, 12b and the fiber-reinforced resin strand 9, slided thereby can be suppressed to produce when extracting fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 out.In addition, because twisted roller 11a, 11b are made of metal, therefore, twisted roller than the rubber rollers system of conventional example, be difficult to wear and tear, long service life, so, can use for more time than the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of conventional example, and, can speed of production at full speed continue to extract out fiber-reinforced resin strand 9.
(embodiment)
Utilize following examples to confirm that twisted roller 11a, 11b and twisted keep the case hardness of roller 12a, 12b to be preferably more than the Hs60.That is to say,, when adopting rubber rollers, will produce groove on the roller surface in one day, thereby can't extract fiber-reinforced resin strand out again and become the state of having to change extracting out under the situation of fiber-reinforced resin strand with for example 40m/ minute speed of production.Given this, twisted roller 11a, 11b and twisted keep roller 12a, 12b to be made by metal, more particularly by the modified material of S45C (hardness: Hs40) make, and utilize annular knurl processing to form the concavo-convex of the about 1mm of diclinic line spacing on the roller surface.At this, the diclinic line refers to following annular knurl line: the mode with each limit of clipping rhombus forms a plurality of protuberances with rectangular pyramid shape of rhombus bottom surface.In addition, the about 1mm of diclinic line spacing is meant, the distance in the crest line of above-mentioned rhombus between a pair of crest line parallel to each other is 1mm.And in the present embodiment, the depth dimensions from the part of the crest line (recess) that constitutes above-mentioned rhombus to the summit of above-mentioned rectangular pyramid is set to about 0.4mm.
The concavo-convex processing on roller surface might not leave no choice but utilize annular knurl processing, also can adopt other processing methods, and for example discharge processing, line cutting processing wait and process.
For (hardness: Hs40) twisted roller 11a, 11b of Gou Chenging and twisted keep roller 12a, 12b, can extract fiber-reinforced resin strand out in about 140 hours by the modified material of S45C.
But, after this, can produce slip, thereby can't extract fiber-reinforced resin strand out.Therefore, utilize the modified material of SKD11 to make twisted roller 11a, 11b and twisted maintenance roller 12a, 12b, and after annular knurl processing, utilize vacuum hardening and make case hardness reach Hs60, like this, even through about 7000 hours, slip can be do not produced yet, still fiber-reinforced resin strand can be extracted out.And, do not find that twisted roller 11a, 11b and twisted keep the concavo-convex outer peripheral face to fiber-reinforced resin strand of roller 12a, 12b to cause problem on the quality such as damage.
This shows, because the mar proof on roller surface significantly improves and can make wear extent become considerably less, even so, also can make service life elongated in order to extract fiber-reinforced resin strand out and to increase the pressing force that fiber-reinforced resin strand is applied with the speed of production of more speed.In addition, if extract fiber-reinforced resin strand out,, can not produce any problem even then passed through 3500 hours with 70m/ minute speed of production yet.
Twisted roller 11a, 11b and twisted keep the preferred diameter of roller 12a, 12b, confirm utilizing the concavo-convex and hardness that is formed with diclinic line spacing 1mm on the surface to extract out with 40m/ minute speed of production for the roller of Hs60 under the following condition of fiber-reinforced resin strand.
At first, be under the situation of 40mm at the diameter of roller, even speed of production is 40m/ minute, also be easy to generate slip, thereby can't extract fiber-reinforced resin strand out with stable speed of production.And be under the situation of 50mm at the diameter of roller, can not produce slip even extract fiber-reinforced resin strand out with 40m/ minute speed of production yet, can extract fiber-reinforced resin strand out with stable speed of production, thus can confirm to be better than adopting rubber rollers significantly time the 5m/ minute.

Below above-mentioned cooling device 27 is described.Figure 10 is the vertical view of the structure of the cooling device of presentation graphs 4 roughly, and Figure 11 is the XI-XI line cutaway view of Figure 10.
Cooling device 27 has: bosh 28, be the on limits case shape with cover of upside, and store cooling water, make from the fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 that crosshead 5 is collected and along continuous straight runs moves and pass through the cooling water; A plurality of spray nozzles 29, separating set compartment of terrain along the moving direction of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 from the upstream side to the downstream is configured in the bosh 28, and, be configured to zigzag across the mobile route of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9, in cooling water, spray water towards fiber-reinforced resin strand 9; And the pressure (hydraulic) water supply pipe 30 that is used for supplying with pressure (hydraulic) water to these spray nozzles 29.
In addition, on bosh end panel 28a, the 28a of bosh 28, the U font otch (not shown) that the reinforcement of having flooded resin can be passed through with fibre bundle is set.Cooling water in the bosh 28 overflows from the U font otch opening of bosh end panel 28a, 28a, still, by supplying with cooling water from pressure (hydraulic) water supply pipe 30 via spray nozzle 29 in bosh 28, water level is kept certain.Except spray nozzle, also can supply with cooling water, and water level be kept certain with this from the supply port of in bosh, supplying with cooling water of other setting.At the downside of bosh end panel 28a, 28a, be provided with that the cooling water that is used to make from bosh 28 returns and the not shown pump, drain vessel and the drainage piping that circulate.
Like this, between crosshead 5 and twisted roller 31a, 31b, as cooling device 27, the time high temperature fiber fortified resin twisted wire 9 along continuous straight runs collected from crosshead 5 boshes 28 that cooling water, move in, along the moving direction devices spaced apart of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 a plurality of spray nozzles 29 are set, in cooling water towards fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 water sprays.
Therefore, the current that utilize these spray nozzle 29 water sprays to be produced stir the cooling water in the bosh, thereby the fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 that new cooling water flow is led continuously from the entrance side to the outlet side and to move in cooling water, and cooling water flow is contacted with fiber-reinforced resin strand 9, thus, than the bosh that does not have spray nozzle 29, can carry out fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 and the heat exchange of cooling water, the speed of raising cooling fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 more efficiently.
Below above-mentioned twisted roller 31a, 31b are described.Figure 12 is the key diagram of the twisted roller of Fig. 4.
A pair of twisted roller 31a, 31b rotation separately remain on the parallel plane (horizontal plane), and, under the state that rotation is intersected, with mode arranged opposite twisted roller 31a, 31b across the fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 that comes self-cooling set 27.That is to say, among Figure 12 the rotation of the twisted roller 31b of the rotation of the twisted roller 31a of upside and downside be not towards with the direction of collecting direction (moving direction) quadrature of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9, but set for, overlook when observing, depart from set angle towards opposite directions with equal angular with respect to collecting direction.In addition, metal upside twisted roller 31a is formed with the concavo-convex 31Aa that is processed to form by annular knurl on whole roller surface (roller outer peripheral face).Equally, metal downside twisted roller 31b is formed with the concavo-convex 31Ba that is processed to form by annular knurl on whole roller surface (roller outer peripheral face).
In addition, in the present embodiment, both all are driven in rotation a pair of twisted roller 31a, 31b.So, this a pair of twisted roller 31a, 31b have the function that the reinforcement of having flooded resin is twisted with fibre bundle, and, have the function of collecting fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 from cooling device 27, thereby can the machine of collecting be set in addition in the downstream of twisted roller 31a, 31b.From twisted roller 31a, 31b to distance being set and collecting under the situations such as twisted wire of easy fracture at a high speed the twisted wire cutting machine, a pair of identical with twisted roller 31a, 31b of structure is set in the downstream of twisted roller 31a, 31b collects roller (for example roller 12a, the 12b of Fig. 1) conduct and collect machine.
Like this, a pair of twisted roller 31a, 31b are made of metal, and have formed concavo-convex 31Aa, 31Ba on its roller surface.Therefore, because the coefficient of friction between metal twisted roller 31a, 31b and the fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 increases, thereby complement each other with the cooling effect of 27 pairs of fiber-reinforced resin strands 9 of cooling device, can not produce under the situation of slip effectively to fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 twisting at fiber-reinforced resin strand 9.In addition, owing to be metal twisted roller, therefore, the twisted roller than rubber system is difficult to wear and tear, long service life, so, can make fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 not take place to collect for a long time slidably.
The situation that the manufacturing installation of the continuous fiber reinforced resin strand that utilizes such formation is made fiber-reinforced resin strand describes below.For the reinforcement fibre bundle 3 that constitutes with fiber 1 by the reinforcement of sending from bobbin 25A~25C, utilize on one side to strengthen and it is applied backward pull with fiber backward pull bringing device 100A~100C, one side is with a pair of heating roller 220,230 of its guiding heating with the configuration up and down of roller arrangement 200, and by with its alternately repeatedly (being 9 times in the present embodiment) be wound on the heating with contacting heating on the roller 220,230, make it to become soaking condition thus, and under this state, it is directed in the crosshead 5.Strengthen with fibre bundle 3 by being full of each minute in the crosshead 5 of the high-temperature fusion resin 2 of extruder 6 supplies in silk device 8 the process, flooded by resin and become the reinforcement fibre bundle that has flooded resin.In addition, under the twisted action of twisted roller 31a, 31b, this reinforcement of having flooded resin begins and the twisted that extends as starting point with the branch silk device 8 of fibre bundle with the downstream in the crosshead 5.Like this, utilize crosshead 5 to make and be impregnated into reinforcement with the fibre bundle 3 from extruder 6 molten resin supplied 2, and, utilize the twisted action of twisted roller 31a, 31b and the reinforcement of having flooded resin is twisted with fibre bundle, thereby can be have continuously collected by the dipping of twisting the continuous fiber reinforced resin strand 9 that the reinforcement of resin constitutes with fibre bundle from crosshead 5.
The fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 of the high temperature of collecting continuously through inborn nature mould 26 from crosshead 5, be directed to cooling device 27, move in the cooling water in bosh 28, and, by being subjected to from across the effect of the current of the spray nozzle 29 of the mode indentation of its mobile route configuration and hardening by cooling is directed to twisted roller 31a, 31b then.Utilize twisted roller 31a, 31b to applying the twisted action by cooling device 27 chilled fiber-reinforced resin strands 9 and collecting action.Then, the fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 that is directed into the downstream of twisted roller 31a, the 31b comminutor 13 that is positioned at twisted roller 31a, 31b downstream cuts off and granulating.
Like this, the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of present embodiment, upstream side in crosshead 5 possesses the warm-up mill device 200 that comprises a pair of warm-up mill 220,230, and, upstream side at this warm-up mill device 200 has the backward pull bringing device that constitutes with fiber backward pull bringing device 100A~100C by strengthening, and it applies backward pull to the reinforcement that is wound on the warm-up mill 220,230 with fibre bundle 3.Thus, strengthen with fibre bundle 3 and alternately repeatedly be wound on a pair of warm-up mill 220,230 that disposes up and down utilizing above-mentioned backward pull bringing device to apply under the state of backward pull, thereby can be on one side closely contact this warm-up mill 220,230 of utilizing heater 224,234 heating move on one side, be not by the crosshead 5 that leads continuously at normal temperatures but under warmed-up state in advance.
Therefore, even collect the speed high speed of strengthening with fibre bundle 3, because the molten resin temperature that can suppress in the crosshead 5 reduces, so being impregnated into fully, strengthens molten resin with in the fibre bundle 3, and, owing to the molten resin viscosity that can suppress in the crosshead 5 increase, so can also be suppressed at the tension force rising of reinforcements mobile in the crosshead 5 with fibre bundle (having flooded the reinforcement fibre bundle of resin).Therefore, compared with the past, can be with the higher speed of collecting (speed of production), for example surpass the speed of collecting that 40m/ divides and make fiber-reinforced resin strand, and, can reduce to be used to make the space that is provided with of the warm-up mill device 220 of collecting the speed high speed.
Adopt above-mentioned manufacturing installation shown in Figure 4 to carry out the manufacturing experiment of fiber-reinforced resin strand.
The diameter of the warm-up mill body of warm-up mill 220,230 is about 250mm, and the width of peripheral part 221 is about 100mm.Distance between the warm-up mill rotating shaft of a pair of warm-up mill 220,230 is about 400mm.
The length of the bosh 28 of cooling device 27 is 2m.For spray nozzle 29, be configured to zigzag with respect to the twisted wire mobile route, 20 of configurations in the row of the side (downside among Figure 10) of fiber-reinforced resin strand mobile route, configuration is 20 in the row of opposite side (upside among Figure 10).Distance between spray nozzle adjacent on the twisted wire moving direction 29 center line each other is 70mm. Twisted roller 31a, 31b all are the mechanisms that are driven in rotation, and quenching by the modified material to SKD11 (alloy tool steel) forms, and utilize annular knurl processing to form the concavo-convex of diclinic line spacing 1mm on whole roller surface.
Use glass fibre to use fiber, use polypropylene, make the experiment that the twisted wire external diameter is the fiber-reinforced resin strand of 2.4mm thus as thermoplastic resin as strengthening.The result, under the situation of crossheads 5 that will lead with fibre bundle 3 by the reinforcement of warm-up mill 220,230 heating in advance, can be that the high speed that 90m/ divides such (can't obtain the collect speed higher than this speed) can't compare is with it in the past collected with the highest speed of collecting.At this moment, the reinforcement of guiding crosshead 5 is 160~200 ℃ with the temperature of fibre bundle 3.On the other hand, under the situation of not utilizing warm-up mill 220,230 to heat (comparative example), the highest speed of collecting is the 40m/ branch.When the speed of collecting surpasses the 40m/ timesharing, because rising, the viscosity of molten resin cause reinforcement mobile in crosshead 5 significantly to be risen with the tension force of fibre bundle, can't collect.
Figure 13 is another the routine view that is used to illustrate the backward pull bringing device of second embodiment.
In Figure 13, the 111st, the bobbin CD-ROM drive motor, it is connected with the rotating shaft 25a of bobbin 25A, corresponding to twisted roller 31a, 31b reinforcement is driven bobbin 25A rotation with collecting of fiber 1.In addition, 112 and 113 is fixed guide rollers, the 114th, and dance roller moving up and down.The 115th, the dance roller position detector adopts the rotary-type current potential that the knee-action of dance roller 114 is detected in the form of the anglec of rotation.Set positions in the time of will applying set backward pull with fiber 1 towards the reinforcement of the entrance side guiding piece 201 of warm-up mill device 200 is the reference position of dance roller 114.
According to the instruction of reception by the tension controller 116 of the position signalling of the dance roller 114 of dance roller position detector 115 detections, when the position of dance roller 114 when the reference position descends, reduce the rotary speed of bobbin CD-ROM drive motor 111, and when the position of dance roller 114 is higher than the reference position, increase rotary speed, strengthen with fiber 1 thereby set backward pull can be imposed on.As substituting of bobbin CD-ROM drive motor 111, the powder brake of the rotating shaft 25a that is incorporated into bobbin 25A also can be set, when the position of dance roller 114 when the reference position descends, strengthen braking, and when the position of dance roller 114 is higher than the reference position, weaken braking.
Utilize above-mentioned bobbin CD-ROM drive motor 111, fixed guide roller 112,113, dance roller 114, dance roller position detector 115 and tension controller 116 to constitute and strengthen, be used for the reinforcement from bobbin 25A is applied backward pull with fiber 1 with fiber backward pull bringing device 110A.In addition, the reinforcement from other bobbins 25B, 25C is applied backward pull with fiber 1 reinforcement with fiber backward pull bringing device 110B, 110C has with strengthen the same structure with fiber backward pull bringing device 110A.Utilize these to strengthen to constitute and apply the backward pull bringing device of backward pull with fibre bundle 3 to being wound on reinforcement on the warm-up mill 220,230 with fiber backward pull bringing device 110A~110C.
Figure 14 is the view of another example that is used to illustrate the backward pull bringing device of second embodiment.
In Figure 14,32A is accommodating to reel to be the reinforcement fiber accepting container of the reinforcement of long size cylindraceous with fiber 1., under the effect of a plurality of guide rods 121, be mobile in a zigzag and be applied in backward pull with the reinforcement fiber 1 that fiber accepting container 32A extracts out from reinforcement, under the state that has been applied in backward pull, be directed to a pair of warm-up mill 220,230 of warm-up mill device 200.
Utilize above-mentioned a plurality of guide rod 121 to constitute and strengthen with fiber backward pull bringing device 120A, to applying backward pull with fiber 1 from the reinforcement of strengthening with fiber accepting container 32A.In addition, to strengthen from other reinforcement with fiber accepting container 32B, 32C applies backward pull with fiber 1 reinforcement with fiber backward pull bringing device 120B, 120C has and the same structure of reinforcement usefulness fiber backward pull bringing device 120A.Utilize these to strengthen to constitute and apply the backward pull bringing device of backward pull with fibre bundle 3 to being wound on reinforcement on the warm-up mill 220,230 with fiber backward pull bringing device 120A~120C.
In the above-described embodiment, alternately be wound on two structures on the warm-up mill with fibre bundle and be illustrated, but manufacturing installation of the present invention is not limited thereto, and also can adopt for example warm-up mill more than three strengthening.In addition, under the situation that adopts two warm-up mills, also can prick (The I with bundle

け) state will be strengthened with fibre bundle and alternately be wound on two warm-up mills, like this, can increase the contact length of each coiling.
Below the prior art relevant with above-mentioned second embodiment described.
The applicant has formerly proposed as the disclosed method of Japanese kokai publication hei 5-169445 communique as the method (prior art 1) of making continuous fiber reinforced resin strand, wherein, the reinforcement of having collected by the dipping of having twisted resin continuously from crosshead is made continuous fiber reinforced resin strand thus with the continuous fiber reinforced resin strand that fibre bundle constitutes.Utilize Figure 17 that the prior art 1 is described.
Prior art 1 is to make the technology of strengthening with the high continuous fiber reinforced resin strand of the adaptation of fiber and resin.In crosshead 55, supply with molten resin material 52 continuously from extruder 56.Outlet side in this crosshead 55, dispose figuration mould 59, cooler 60, twisted roller (also be referred to as to intersect roller hauling machine) 61a, 61b, pulling roll 62 according to priority, in this crosshead 55, be provided for making reinforcement to move in a zigzag with fibre bundle and it is carried out shredding, improves the branch silk device (dipping roller) 58 of dipping property.
In will strengthening the molten resin material 52 that is impregnated into fiber 51,51... in the crosshead 55, carry out the resin dipping after, utilize figuration mould 59 to carry out figuration and decide section shape, and utilize cooler 60 to carry out hardening by cooling. Twisted roller 61a, 61b are the rollers of a pair of rubber system, are driven and opposite towards each other direction rotation.In addition, these twisted rollers 61a, 61b be configuration obliquely in the opposite direction in horizontal plane, utilize the cross part of these twisted rollers 61a, 61b to come gripping fibers fortified resin twisted wire 53 and towards direction of arrow tractive, thus, this fiber-reinforced resin strand 53 is the center rotation with the axle center.Thus, in cooler 60 and crosshead 55, twist between the branch silk device 58a in downstream.Then, the fiber-reinforced resin strand 53 that constitutes with fibre bundle of the reinforcement that utilizes the comminutor (twisted wire cutting machine) 63 be arranged on the position of leaving pulling roll 62 to cut off by the dipping of having been twisted resin.
Like this, in prior art 1, on one side twisted strengthen and to carry out the dipping of resin on one side with fibre bundle, combine closely securely with fiber and resin material thereby can make to strengthen.In addition, owing to be under the state that the reinforcement of having flooded resin has been carried out twisted with fibre bundle, it to be collected, so can give play under the state that fiber suede is held together in the twisted wire effect of it being collected outside the figuration mould, so, than the situation of reinforcement of having flooded resin not being twisted with fibre bundle, the fiber suede that produces in crosshead is difficult to stop up the figuration mould, thereby can improve the speed of collecting of fiber-reinforced resin strand.
But if will make fiber-reinforced resin strand with the higher speed of collecting, then acting on the reinforcement of being collected in crosshead and moving increases with the tension force on the fibre bundle, can break, thereby collect the limit that there be 30~40m/ minute in speed.
In addition, the applicant has formerly proposed following method, promptly, collected by the dipping that has carried out twisting the fiber-reinforced resin strand that the reinforcement of resin constitutes with fibre bundle continuously from crosshead, make fiber-reinforced resin strand thus, in the method, for being impregnated into fully, strengthens molten synthetic resin with in the fibre bundle, in crosshead, carry out shredding with fibre bundle, especially the synthetic resin that will promote the part that resin floods is heated (prior art 2: Japanese kokai publication hei 6-254850 communique) strengthening.At this moment, in order to carry out above-mentioned heating, the dipping that adopts hot water importing type for example with roller as the dipping roller in the crosshead.
According to the prior art 2, can suppress the reinforcement of normal temperature is reduced with the temperature that fibre bundle imports the molten synthetic resin that causes in the crosshead, the result, the viscosity that can suppress the molten synthetic resin in the crosshead rises.Thus, inhibitory action can be expected the high speed of the speed of collecting of fiber-reinforced resin strand in the increase of the reinforcement of being collected and moving with the tension force on the fibre bundle in crosshead.
But, according to the experiment that the inventor carried out, in prior art 2, when the speed of collecting of continuous fiber reinforced resin strand surpasses 40m/ minute, molten resin is impregnated into the degree of strengthening with fibre bundle can be worsened, and the reinforcement of moving in crosshead can be risen with the tension force of fibre bundle and be caused producing and break.
Given this, the inventor expects, whether can be not in crosshead heating be used to promote the synthetic resin of the part of resin dipping, does but heating in advance import to the reinforcement fibre bundle in the crosshead? in the above-mentioned Japanese kokai publication hei 6-254850 communique that the applicant formerly proposes, then can heat the but also not mentioned method that is used to implement this idea to the reinforcement that imports in the crosshead in advance with fiber though mentioned if necessary.
On the other hand, in Japanese kokai publication hei 5-162135 communique, mentioned the manufacture method (prior art 3) of fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin structure, this method is to collect continuous reinforcing fiber on one side, the thermoplastic resin of fusion is coated it and flood and make the method for fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin structure, wherein, cover at the thermoplastic resin that makes fusion, before the dipping intensified fiber, utilize the hot air type preheating furnace reinforcing fiber to be preheating to more than the melt temperature of thermoplastic resin, thereby promote the thermoplastic resin impregnated in reinforcing fiber of fusion, improve the speed of collecting with this.
In the prior art 3, import reinforcing fiber (glass rove fiber) in the hot air type preheating furnace and be heated to about 300 ℃, and, obtain banded fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin structure (glass fiber-reinforced nylon 6/6) with 18m/ minute the speed of collecting.
In addition, the manufacture method (prior art 4) of long-fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite is disclosed in Japanese kokai publication hei 7-251437 communique, wherein, when making the long-fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite, make before thermoplastic resin is attached on the continuous reinforcing fibre, will continuous reinforcing fibre import in the The pre-heat treatment device and heat in advance.
In the prior art 4, adopt the The pre-heat treatment device of hot air type or infrared radiation formula, under the situation that adopts the combination of fiber/resin, for example glass fibre/acrylic resin, continuous reinforcing fibre is heated in advance with 120~230 ℃ The pre-heat treatment temperature (heat treated temperature), The pre-heat treatment time (heat treated time) of 10 seconds~1 minute.In an embodiment, at 200 ℃ of following heat treated (The pre-heat treatment) glass fibre, obtain banded long-fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite with 20m/ minute the speed of collecting.
But, in above-mentioned prior art 3,4, molten resin is impregnated into strengthen with before in the fibre bundle, when the continuous reinforcement of being moved collecting is heated with fibre bundle, because what utilize is the noncontact mode of heatings such as the needed hot air type of long mobile route that extend with the horizontal direction of fibre bundle along strengthening, so under the situation of the high speed of realizing collecting speed (speed of production), need be used to be provided with the big space of the heater (preheating device) of longer size, thereby have certain problem.
That is to say, the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of above-mentioned second embodiment is a device of making fiber-reinforced resin strand, it is characterized in that having: crosshead is used for making molten resin to be impregnated into the reinforcement fibre bundle of the long size that imports continuously from upstream side; The twisted roller is arranged on the downstream of this crosshead, and twisted has flooded the reinforcement fibre bundle of resin; Cooling device is arranged between this twisted roller and the crosshead, is used for being cooled off with the fiber-reinforced resin strand that fibre bundle constitutes by the reinforcement of extracting out from above-mentioned crosshead; The warm-up mill device is arranged on the upstream side of above-mentioned crosshead, is used for the reinforcement that this crosshead of subtend imports and heats in advance with fibre bundle; And the backward pull bringing device, be arranged on the upstream side of this warm-up mill device, between this backward pull bringing device and this warm-up mill device, apply backward pull with fibre bundle to strengthening; Above-mentioned warm-up mill device has at least two warm-up mills, and these at least two warm-up mills can alternately repeatedly be reeled above-mentioned reinforcement with fibre bundle and heating respectively; Above-mentioned backward pull bringing device applies backward pull so that strengthen with above-mentioned each warm-up mill of fibre bundle contact.
The manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of above-mentioned second embodiment have the crosshead of being arranged on upstream side the warm-up mill device and be arranged on the upstream side of this warm-up mill device and the reinforcement on each warm-up mill that is wound on above-mentioned warm-up mill device applied the backward pull bringing device of backward pull with fibre bundle.Thus, strengthen and applied by the backward pull bringing device under the state of backward pull with fibre bundle, alternately repeatedly be wound at least two above-mentioned warm-up mills that for example dispose up and down of warm-up mill device, thus, closely contact on one side on one side and move with warmed-up this warm-up mill, from rather than at normal temperatures but under warmed-up state in advance by the crosshead that leads continuously.
Therefore, even strengthen the speed of collecting high speed with fibre bundle, also can make molten resin be impregnated into reinforcement fully by the molten resin temperature reduction that suppresses in the crosshead with in the fibre bundle, and, can be suppressed at the tension force rising of reinforcement mobile in this crosshead by the molten resin viscosity increase that suppresses in the crosshead with fibre bundle (having flooded the reinforcement fibre bundle of resin).Therefore, compared with the past, can be with the higher speed of collecting (speed of production), for example surpass 40m/ minute the speed of collecting and make fiber-reinforced resin strand, and, can reduce to be used to make the space that is provided with of the warm-up mill device of collecting the speed high speed.
In the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of above-mentioned second embodiment, preferably, at least one in above-mentioned each warm-up mill has a plurality of circumferential grooves that are arranged side by side along roller rotating shaft direction at the roller peripheral part, strengthens groove with fibre bundle as guiding.
Below with reference to accompanying drawings the 3rd embodiment of the present invention is described.Figure 15 is the structure key diagram of manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of third embodiment of the invention.
As shown in figure 15, in order to carry out The pre-heat treatment, will be by the reinforcement that the reinforcement of sending from a plurality of bobbins 4 constitutes with fiber 1 fibre bundle 3 guiding warm-up mill devices 200, this warm-up mill device 200 has a pair of warm-up mill 220,230 of configuration up and down.Strengthen to be applied backward pull by a plurality of guide rods 33 on one side with fibre bundle 3 and alternately repeatedly be wound on a pair of warm-up mill 220,230 on one side, thus, heat up under the effect that the contact that produces is heated closely being contacted with on the warm-up mill 220,230 that has been heated.
Extruder 6 and the crosshead (molten resin bath container) 5 that is built-in with conveyor screw 7 is being set in the downstream near this warm-up mill device 200.Supply with molten resin (thermoplastic resin of fusion) 2 from this extruder 6 continuously to crosshead 5, and, to the reinforcement that the heated up fibre bundle 3 of crosshead 5 importings from above-mentioned warm-up mill device 200.In this crosshead 5, the reinforcement that is provided for making molten resin 2 to be impregnated into supplying with continuously is with a plurality of the branch silk devices in the fibre bundle 3 (shredding and flood use roller) 8.In the outlet of crosshead 5 figuration mould 26 is installed, be used for to by collect from this crosshead 5 and carried out twisting dipping the reinforcement of resin carry out figuration with the high temperature fiber fortified resin twisted wire 9 that fibre bundle constitutes.
Downstream in the crosshead 5 that this figuration mould 26 has been installed is provided with cooling device 27, is used for the high temperature fiber fortified resin twisted wire that will derive from this crosshead 59 and cools off at cooling water.In addition, in downstream twisted machine 34 is set near this cooling device 27.Utilize the manufacturing installation manufacturing of present embodiment and be directed to the fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 in twisted machine 34 downstreams, the comminutor (twisted wire cutting machine) 13 that is positioned at twisted machine 34 downstreams cuts off and granulating.
Above-mentioned warm-up mill device 200 is identical with the apparatus structure of above-mentioned second embodiment that illustrates with reference to Fig. 6~Fig. 9, and therefore, in this description will be omitted.
In addition, above-mentioned cooling device 27 is identical with apparatus structure with reference to above-mentioned second embodiment of Figure 10 and Figure 11 explanation, and therefore, in this description will be omitted.
Below above-mentioned twisted machine 34 is described.This twisted machine 34 has a pair of twisted roller 31a, 31b.These twisted rollers 31a, the 31b roll structure with above-mentioned second embodiment of reference Figure 12 explanation respectively are identical, and therefore, in this description will be omitted.
The situation that the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand that utilizes such formation is made fiber-reinforced resin strand describes below.The reinforcement that is made of with fiber the reinforcement of sending from a plurality of bobbins 4 is with fibre bundle 3, the a pair of heating of being disposed up and down guides with roller 220,230, alternately repeatedly be wound on heating with contacting heating on the roller 220,230 while being applied in backward pull, become soaking condition thus, be directed to then in the crosshead 5.Strengthen with fibre bundle 3 by being full of each minute in the crosshead 5 of the high-temperature fusion resin 2 of extruder 6 supplies in silk device 8 the process, flooded by resin and become the reinforcement fibre bundle that has flooded resin.In addition, under the twisted action of twisted machine 34, this reinforcement of having flooded resin begins and the twisted that extends as starting point with the branch silk device 8 of fibre bundle with the downstream in the crosshead 5.Like this, utilize crosshead 5 to make and be impregnated into reinforcement with the fibre bundle 3 from extruder 6 molten resin supplied 2, and, utilize the twisted action of twisted machine 34 and the reinforcement of having flooded resin is twisted with fibre bundle, thereby can be have continuously collected by the dipping of having twisted the fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 that the reinforcement of resin constitutes with fibre bundle from crosshead 5.
The fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 of the high temperature of collecting continuously via inborn nature mould 26 from crosshead 5, be directed to cooling device 27, move in the cooling water in bosh 28, and, by being subjected to from across the effect of the current of the spray nozzle 29 (with reference to Figure 10,11) of the mode indentation of its mobile route configuration and hardening by cooling is directed to twisted roller 31a, 31b then.Utilize twisted roller 31a, 31b to applying the twisted action by cooling device 27 chilled fiber-reinforced resin strands 9 and collecting action.The comminutor 13 that the fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 that is directed into the downstream of twisted machine 34 is positioned at twisted machine 34 downstreams cuts off and granulating (with reference to Figure 16).
Like this, the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of present embodiment, between crosshead 5 and twisted machine 34, as cooling device 27, in the bosh 28 that high temperature fiber fortified resin twisted wire 9 along continuous straight runs of collecting from crosshead 5 move cooling water, along the moving direction devices spaced apart of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 a plurality of spray nozzles 29 are set, be used at cooling water towards fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 water sprays.
Therefore, the current that utilize these spray nozzle 29 water sprays to be produced stir the cooling water in the bosh, thereby with lead continuously from the entrance side to the outlet side fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 that in cooling water, moves and cooling water flow is contacted with fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 of new cooling water flow, thus, than the bosh that does not have spray nozzle 29, can carry out continuous fiber reinforced resin strand 9 and the heat exchange of cooling water, the speed of the continuous fiber reinforced resin strand 9 of raising cooling efficiently.Thus, when making fiber-reinforced resin strand with the speed of collecting that for example surpasses 40m/ minute such high speed, than the existing situation of collecting speed below 40m/ minute, even do not increase the length (along the length of fiber-reinforced resin strand moving direction) of bosh, can cool off fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 fully yet.Therefore, as compared with the past, can be with at a high speed the speed of collecting, for example surpass 40m/ minute the speed of collecting, the resin material of making slidably that does not produce fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 in twisted machine 34 is impregnated into the fiber-reinforced resin strand of strengthening with in the fibre bundle 9 fully.
In addition, spray nozzle 29 is with the mode indentation configuration across the fiber-reinforced resin strand mobile route.Therefore, can suppress the effect upper/lower positions secund of the current that fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 produced at spray nozzle 29, can make that fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 is smooth and easy as the crow flies to move.As substituting of zigzag configuration, also can adopt arranged opposite.
In addition, in the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of present embodiment, twisted machine 34 is to be made of with the fibre bundle function of twisting and a pair of twisted roller 31a, the 31b that collect the function of continuous fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 reinforcement that has having flooded resin, so the machine of collecting needn't be installed in addition.Therefore, can the simplification device structure.
In addition, the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of present embodiment, also the upstream side in crosshead 5 has warm-up mill device 200, and this warm-up mill device is this reinforcement fibre bundle of heating before will strengthening with fibre bundle 3 these crossheads 5 of importing.When fibre bundle is used in the reinforcement of supplying with normal temperature to crosshead at a high speed, molten resin temperature in this crosshead can reduce and make the viscosity of molten resin increase, strengthen with the deterioration of the degree in the fibre bundle thereby cause molten resin to be impregnated into, and, in crosshead, collected and the reinforcement of moving with tension force (the collecting resistance) increase of fibre bundle.Therefore, by above-mentioned warm-up mill device 200 is set, above-mentioned degree of steeping is not worsened, and significantly suppress the rising of mentioned strain, thereby can realize the more high speed of the speed of collecting (speed of production) of fiber-reinforced resin strand 9.
In addition, in the manufacturing installation of the fiber-reinforced resin strand of present embodiment, twisted machine 34 is by metal a pair of twisted roller 31a, the 31b formation that forms concavo-convex 31Aa, 31Ba (with reference to Figure 12) on the roller surface.Therefore, because the coefficient of friction between metal twisted roller 31a, 31b and the fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 increases, thereby complement each other with the abundant cooling effect of 27 pairs of fiber-reinforced resin strands 9 of cooling device, fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 is not produced slidably more effectively to fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 twisting.In addition, owing to be metal twisted roller, therefore, the twisted roller than rubber rollers system is difficult to wear and tear, long service life, so, can make fiber-reinforced resin strand 9 not take place to collect for a long time slidably.

Twisted roller (intersection roller) 31a, 31b to the twisted machine 34 in embodiment 1~4 and the comparative example 1,2 describe. Twisted roller 31a, 31b all are the mechanisms that are driven in rotation, and by the modified material formation of SKD11 (alloy tool steel), utilize annular knurl processing to form the concavo-convex of diclinic line spacing 1mm on whole roller surface.
From pilot study as can be known, be below 75 ℃ as if firm temperature by the continuous fiber reinforced resin strand behind the bosh, then at twisted roller place, can not produce and collect continuous fiber reinforced resin strand slidably.Therefore, in table 1, illustrated and utilize length for the bosh of 2m, just the temperature by the continuous fiber reinforced resin strand behind the bosh is below 75 ℃ the time, to collecting the result that speed is investigated.
