Description

用于接合金属和热塑性组件的方法
技术领域
本公开内容的领域主要涉及接合组件,且更具体地,涉及使用膜粘合剂接合金属与热塑性组件。
背景技术
至少一些已知的装配(例如,在航空工业中)包括使金属与热塑性组件结合的部件。为了组装这样的部件,热塑性组件可以被形成为具有促进将热塑性组件接合至相关的金属组件的一个或多个机械特征。例如,热塑性组件可以利用注入成型形成在金属组件上和周围以机械地与金属组件连结。然而,在应力下,热塑性组件可能破裂或与金属组件脱离。因此,至少一些已知的组件包括使用粘合剂彼此接合的金属和热塑性组件。
至少一些现有的接合方案采用二次接合。这些解决方案具有许多缺点,包括为了获得坚固性而需要的另外的表面准备步骤以及粘合失效模式,这增加了成本和装备。二次接合操作还可能导致制造部件的长的流程时间。此外,二次接合操作还可能限制混合的热塑-金属部件的集成的可能性。
发明内容
一方面,提供了用于接合组件的方法。所述方法包括准备金属组件的表面,将膜粘合剂涂覆至准备的表面,使用注入成型形成热塑性组件,从而使得膜粘合剂位于金属组件与热塑性组件之间,并且对膜粘合剂进行固化。
另一方面,提供了一种用于形成具有电介质帽的紧固件的方法。所述方法包括准备紧固件的头部上的表面,将膜粘合剂涂覆至准备的表面,使用注入成型形成电介质帽,从而使得膜粘合剂位于紧固件头部与电介质帽之间,并且对膜粘合剂进行固化以使电介质帽接合至紧固件头部。
在又一方面,提供了一种部件。所述部件包括金属组件,热塑性组件,以及位于金属与热塑性组件之间的膜粘合剂,膜粘合剂将金属组件接合至热塑性组件,其中,通过将膜粘合剂涂覆至金属组件的表面、使用注入成型形成热塑性组件、并且在注入成型之后对膜粘合剂进行固化来制造所述部件。

图3是可以包括在图2中示出的飞机上的简单部件的示意图。

具体实施方式
本文中描述的系统和方法促进金属与热塑性组件的接合。所述方法包括将膜粘合剂涂覆至金属组件并且使用注入成型在金属组件和膜粘合剂上形成热塑性组件。
更具体地参照附图,可以在如图1所示的飞机制造和维护方法100和在如图2所示的飞机102的上下文中描述本公开内容的实施方式。在预生产期间,示例性方法100可以包括飞机102的规格和设计104以及材料采购106。在生产过程中,进行组件和子配件(subassembly)制造108以及飞机102的系统集成110。此后,飞机102可以通过认证和交付112以便被投入运行(in service)114。在被消费者运行时,飞机102定期进行例行维护和保养116(其同样可以包括修整、重新配置、翻新等)。
方法100的各个处理可以由系统集成商、第三方、和/或运营商(例如,客户)来执行或实施。为了该描述的目的,系统集成商可包括但不限于任意数量的飞机制造商和主系统分包商;第三方可包括但不限于任意数量的承包商、分包商以及供应商;并且运营商可以是航空公司、租赁公司、军事企业、服务机构等。
如图2中所示,通过示例性方法100生产的飞机102可包括具有多个系统120与内舱122的机身118。高级系统120的实例包括一个或多个推进系统124、电力系统126、液压系统128以及环境系统130。可包括任意数量的其他系统。尽管示出了航空航天实例,然而,可将本公开内容的原理应用于其他行业,诸如,汽车行业。
本文实施的装置和方法可以在生产和维护方法100的任何一个或多个阶段中被采用。例如,对应于生产处理108的组件或者子配件可以类似于飞机102在运行时生产的组件或者子配件的方式被制作或者制造。此外,在生产阶段108和110的过程中可以利用一个或多个装置实施方式、方法实施方式或者其组合,例如,通过充分地加速飞机102的组装或者降低成本。类似地,在飞机102运行时,可以利用一个或多个装置实施方式、方法实施方式、或者其组合例如但不限于以进行维修和保养116。
图3是包括金属组件302、粘合剂304、以及注入成型的热塑性组件306的简单部件300的示意图。粘合剂304将金属组件302接合至热塑性组件306,如本文详细描述的。例如,简单的部件300可以包括在飞机102上(在图2中示出的)。
如在此所使用的,部件300称为‘简单的’部件是因为金属组件302的单个界面308被接合至热塑性组件306的单个界面310。在一个示例性实施方式中,金属组件302是紧固件(例如,螺栓、螺丝钉、和/或任何其他类型的具有头部和柄部的紧固装置)并且热塑性组件306是经由粘合剂304连接至紧固件的头部的电介质帽。例如,金属组件302可以是具有0.485英寸直径的钛紧固件,热塑性组件306可以是未填充的450G聚醚醚酮(PEEK)帽,以及所形成的简单部件300可以是整体电介质顶部(IDT)紧固件。可选地,金属组件302和热塑性组件306可以是此处描述的可以彼此接合的任何组件。例如,在一些实施方式中,热塑性组件306是聚芳醚酮(polyaryletherketone,PAEK,PEKK)、聚苯硫(polyphenylene sulfide,PPS)、聚醚酰亚胺(polyetherimide,PEI)、聚碳酸酯(PC)、聚芳砜(polyarylsulfone,PPS、PPSU、PSU)或者聚邻苯二甲(polyphthalamide,PPA)。
图4是包括金属组件402、粘合剂404以及注入成型的热塑性组件406的复杂部件400的示意图。与简单部件300(在图3中示出)类似,粘合剂404将金属组件402接合至热塑性组件406,如本文详细描述的。例如,复杂部件400可以包括在飞机102上(在图2中示出的)。
如在此所使用的,部件400称为‘复杂的’部件是因为金属组件402的多个界面408接合至热塑性组件406的多个界面410。因此,与简单部件300相比,复杂部件400相对复杂。特别是,金属组件402和热塑性组件406可以是如此处描述的可以彼此接合的任何元件。
图5是用于形成诸如简单部件300(在图3中示出)或者复杂部件400(在图4中示出)的部件的示例性方法500的流程图。方法500包括准备表面502,将粘合剂涂覆至表面504,B-分段(staging)粘合剂(即,部分地预固化或者设置粘合剂)506,进行注入成型处理508,并且在注入成型处理之后对粘合剂进行固化510。以下详细地描述方法500的步骤。
方法500开始于在金属组件上准备表面502。即,在一些实施方式中,最终将涂覆粘合剂的表面可能最初包括妨碍粘合剂的性能的涂层(例如,用作固体润滑剂的铝颜料涂层)。因此,例如,可以通过对表面进行喷砂以去除任何这样的涂层来准备表面502。例如,可以利用#180砂粒氧化铝对表面进行喷砂。为了进一步准备表面502,可以将溶胶凝胶涂层(例如,Boegel EP II溶胶凝胶)涂覆至喷砂之后的表面。为了最后确定准备502,可以利用耐腐蚀的改性环氧树脂底漆对金属组件的表面进行涂底层。
在准备502之后,将粘合剂涂覆至表面504。当金属组件是紧固件时,表面可以是紧固件的可能相对小(例如,0.5平方英寸)的头部。在示例性实施方式中,粘合剂是膜粘合剂,并且更具体地,环氧树脂膜粘合剂。例如,粘合剂可以是来自Henkel Corp的EA9696U(0.03lb/ft2)。使用粘合剂膜确保粘合剂的轮廓相对均匀。在示例性实施方式中,粘合剂是提供相对强的环境的耐用性和用于结构接合应用的机械强度的加强环氧粘合剂。此外,粘合剂在250°华氏温度(F)或者以下的华氏温度下固化并且被选择用于能够承受短期暴露于相对高的热塑性处理温度和粘合剂动力学。
可选地,粘合剂可以是使方法500能够如此处描述的进行的任何合适的粘合剂。例如,在一些实施方式中,根据应用,粘合剂可以在较高温度下固化。此外,在一些实施方式中,膜粘合剂是聚氨酯或者聚酰亚胺胶粘剂。此外,在一些实施方式中,粘合剂可以是喷涂粘合剂。在示例性实施方式中,粘合剂相对薄(例如,0.002至0.005英寸厚)以促进减少在注入成型处理中注入成型工具的溢液和出口阻塞。然而,根据将要形成的部件,在一些实施方式中粘合剂可以较厚(例如,直至0.010英寸厚)。
对粘合剂进行B-分段(B-staging)506以促进抑制粘合剂在随后的注入成型处理中的流动。即,B-分段506是在烘箱中执行的中间处理,其通过是粘合剂进入粘质状态而准备用于随后接合操作的粘合剂。基于粘合剂的预定的固化动力学选择B-分段506的参数。例如,在一些实施方式中,B-分段506在大约180°F下执行大约30分钟。在其他实施方式中,B-分段506在大约210°F下进行大约30分钟。可选地,可以使用允许方法500如此处描述的进行的任何合适的参数进行B-分段506。例如,B-分段506可以在150°F与250°F之间的温度下进行5分钟至2小时的时间段。在一些实施方式中,不进行B-分段506。
可以在B-分段506之后并且在进行注入成型508之前存储(例如,24小时)金属组件和粘合剂。在B-分段506之后,进行注入成型处理508。具体地,金属组件的至少一部分(具有涂覆的粘合剂)被放入注入成型工具中,并且使用注入成型使热塑性组件形成在金属组件和粘合剂上。在注入成型过程中,金属组件和粘合剂在相对短暂的时间(例如,几秒)内经受相对高的温度(例如,大约690°F)和压力(例如,8,000psi)。在一些实施方式中,在高达725°F和直至15,000psi下进行注入成型。然而,B-分段506通过对粘合剂进行部分地固化而减小了在注入成型过程中粘合剂的流动。
在执行注入成型处理508之后使粘合剂固化510。对于一些热塑性塑料,诸如PEEK,当材料是非晶态时,热塑性组件的性能改善。因此,在固化510过程中,在示例性实施方式中,温度保持在热塑性组件的玻璃转换温度以下(例如,约290°F)。例如,可以使在大约25psi下,以7°F/分钟的温度上升,在大约250°F下进行固化510大约90分钟。可选地,可以使用允许方法500如此处描述的进行的任何合适的参数进行固化510。例如,固化510可以在150°F与270°F之间的温度且在从10psi至95psi的压力下进行。在示例性实施方式中,固化510在热压下进行。
方法500形成了金属组件与热塑性组件之间的高强度接合。例如,基于实验结果,在75°F,当紧固件和帽使用本文所描述的系统和方法被接合时,所得的接合产生使钛紧固件与热塑性顶盖分离的1400psi与1600psi之间的抗拉强度(tension strength)。相反,至少一些已知的接合技术可以产生使接合的金属与热塑性组件分离的大约600psi的抗拉强度。此外,本文中描述的接合方法相对是坚固的和可重复的。
本文描述的实施方式提供用于接合金属与热塑性组件的系统和方法。所述方法包括将环氧粘合剂涂覆到金属组件、对粘合剂进行B-分段、并且使用注入成型在金属组件和粘合剂上形成热塑性组件。特别地,对粘合剂进行B-分段减小粘合剂在注入成型过程中的流动。
本文描述的实施方式提供对至少一些已知的接合方法的改进。与至少一些已知的接合方法相比,使用本文描述的方法在金属与热塑性组件之间形成的接合是较强的接合。此外,因为本文描述的方法使得粘合剂能够承受注入成型处理,所以可以相对迅速地并容易地形成包括金属与热塑性组件的部件。
本书面描述使用示例公开各种实施方式,其包括最佳模式,以便使本领域的技术人员能够实践这些实施方式,包括制造和使用任何设备或者系统并且执行任何所包括的方法。可取得专利性的范围由权利要求限定,并且可以包括本领域技术人员想到的其他示例。这样的其它示例意在在权利要求范围内,如果它们具有与权利要求从字面语言上看没有不同的结构元件,或者如果它们包括具有与权利要求从字面语言上看无实质不同的同等结构元件。
