Definitions
- the present invention relates to a semi-finished product and a method for producing a structural component, in particular a structural component, which has a curved or double-curved shape or shape.
- Structural components made of fiber composite material which have a dome-shaped or dome-shaped or otherwise spherical shape that is curved in at least two directions. Such components are used in aircraft construction e.g. used as a pressure frame or as a fuselage shell.
- Fiber composite components wherein a layer structure, which has reinforcing fiber layers embedded in thermoplastic matrix material, between
- Structural component wherein a plurality of semifinished layers from one
- fiber-reinforced thermoplastic material are stacked and selectively connected to each other to fix a position of the semifinished layers relative to each other. Wrinkling during subsequent press forming is to be avoided by the type of connection.
- a semifinished product for producing a structural component.
- the semifinished product comprises a multiplicity of prepreg tapes which extend along one another and each have unidirectionally arranged reinforcing fibers embedded in a thermoplastic matrix material and a multiplicity of connecting strands comprising a thermoplastic material.
- Prepreg tapes are connected to form a textile fabric in which each of the connecting strands crosses several of the prepreg tapes.
- Connecting strands and the prepreg bands are in a first end region of the Flat structure and a second end region of the flat structure lying opposite to it, each along a connecting line
- thermoplastic material of the connecting strands can be the same thermoplastic material as the matrix material contained in the prepreg tapes or at least have a similar composition.
- the textile structure i.e. a structure made up of intersecting strands, offers the advantage that the semi-finished product is anisotropic
- the textile structure allows the prepreg tapes to slide along one another, which prevents wrinkling when deforming.
- the formation of wrinkles is further prevented by the fact that a cohesive connection of the strands, that is to say a cohesive connection between prepreg tapes and thermoplastic connecting strands, only along connecting lines lying opposite one another
- the unidirectional thermoplastic prepreg tapes are elongated, single-ply tape material, in which continuous, unidirectional reinforcing fibers are embedded in a thermoplastic matrix material.
- Prepreg tapes of this type have the advantage that they are easily deformable but are not very susceptible to the formation of undulations.
- Matrix material more to produce a structural component from the semi-finished product.
- a semifinished product for producing a structural component.
- the semi-finished product includes a variety of
- Prepreg tapes each in a thermoplastic matrix material
- thermoplastic materials have embedded, unidirectionally arranged reinforcing fibers.
- thermoplastic materials are also optional
- the prepreg tapes are arranged to form a multiaxial fabric which comprises a plurality of layers of prepreg tapes lying one above the other, the prepreg tapes running parallel to one another within one layer, and the layers being connected at individual points relative to one another, in particular sewn, knitted, woven, welded or through another textile process connected, preferably by means of the connecting strands.
- a multi-layer semifinished product is provided, the individual layers being formed from parallel prepreg strips and the individual layers being connected only selectively by the connecting strands.
- connection points can be provided along parallel lines. Due to the only selective connection of the layers and the parallel
- the individual layers can slide relative to one another and the fibers within the individual layers can slide relative to one another, as a result of which one
- a method for producing a structural component having a curved shape is provided. According to this method, a layer structure is first formed from a plurality of layers, the layers each having at least one semi-finished product which is designed as described above. The layers can optionally be on one
- Connection point which is located in the area of an apex of the arched shape to be produced, can be thermoplastic connected, e.g. by welding, in particular ultrasonic welding. So there is a discrete, e.g. punctiform material connection of the layers of the layer structure is produced at a point at which no or only slight relative movements of the individual layers to one another occur during the forming in order to produce the curved shape.
- Layer structure in the curved shape at a forming temperature that is less than a melting point of the thermoplastic materials of the semi-finished product. After the forming, the formed layer structure is heated to one
- thermoplastic materials of the semi-finished product that is, greater than the melting point of the thermoplastic matrix material of the prepreg tapes and greater than the melting point of the thermoplastic material of the connecting strands of the semi-finished product.
- Cooled solidification temperature which is less than the melting point of the thermoplastic materials of the semi-finished product. Another idea of the invention is therefore to create wrinkles
- Prevents reinforcement fibers By fixing the layers or layers relative to one another in an area of the layer structure which after the forming contains an apex of the curved shape of the structural component, sliding of the layers to one another in more deformed areas is facilitated.
- the mechanical strength of the components is improved by reducing the formation of folds. Thanks to the textile structure made of prepreg tapes and
- Connecting strands which each have one, preferably the same thermoplastic material, can be produced in a very simple and quick manner after the shaping, a large flat component.
- the prepreg tapes can in particular have a width between 3 mm and 15 mm. In particular, it can also be provided that a width is between 0.001 percent and 5 percent of a length of the prepreg edges.
- a width is between 0.001 percent and 5 percent of a length of the prepreg edges.
- Prepreg tapes extend in a first direction and the
- Connecting strands extend in a second direction running transversely to the first direction, and a first prepreg tape that is outermost in relation to the second direction and an extreme second prepreg tape that is located opposite to the first prepreg tape, in order to form the connecting lines each integrally with the Connecting strands are connected.
- the connecting lines run along opposite, outermost prepreg bands of the semi-finished textile product. This prevents fraying or disintegration of the semi-finished product, while the sliding of the individual strips relative to one another is prevented as little as possible.
- the prepreg strips and the connecting strands are woven together. Accordingly, the prepreg tapes run parallel to each other, e.g. in a first direction, and the connecting strands extend transversely to the prepreg bands, e.g. in a second direction, and also run parallel to each other.
- the prepreg tapes can be provided as warp strands and the connecting strands as weft strands or vice versa. The are optional
- Connecting strands and the prepreg tapes are woven in an atlas weave, in which the weft strand passes under a warp strand and then over more than two warp strands.
- Connecting rods offers the particular advantage that within the The reinforcing fibers are approximately parallel to one another. Furthermore, weaving can be carried out automatically in a simple manner.
- Connecting strands each have a first end section and opposite to this second end section, the first and second end sections each projecting beyond the connecting lines. Accordingly, the connecting strands form protrusions or a kind of tabs which protrude over an edge or edge area of the fabric. These tabs can be used for cohesive coupling to other semi-finished products of the same or similar construction, which facilitates the processing of the semi-finished product.
- Foil tapes or as threads made of the thermoplastic material are or as threads made of the thermoplastic material. Ribbons, i.e. strands with flat, rectangular cross sections, have a small cross section thickness, so that a very thin semi-finished product can be realized. Threads, i.e. strands with several filaments twisted into an approximately circular cross section, offer the advantage of a larger one
- the connecting strands are optionally made of thermoplastic
- Plastic material preferably the thermoplastic matrix material of the prepreg tapes.
- the connecting strands loosen when the semi-finished product is heated to a temperature greater than the melting temperature of the thermoplastic materials to a certain extent and also improve the cohesion between the reinforcing fibers.
- the individual layers of the layer structure are each formed from a plurality of semi-finished products in which the connecting strands protrude beyond the connecting lines, as was described above.
- Prepreg tapes of a respective further semi-finished product thermoplastic bonded.
- Connecting strands of the further semi-finished product are connected to prepreg tapes of the first semi-finished product in a thermoplastic manner. This makes it easy to produce large flat layers.
- a welding process e.g. Ultrasonic welding can be used.
- the layer structure is formed in such a way that the prepreg strips extend in different layers in different directions.
- the layers are stacked one on top of the other in such a way that the prepreg strips of two adjacent layers or layers each extend in different directions.
- the reinforcing fibers thus also extend in different layers in different directions, which improves the mechanical strength of the structural component.
- the layer structure is formed by sequentially stacking the layers on a flat storage surface, and the forming is carried out in a further step, for example in a cavity Molding tool, wherein the cavity is formed by a molded part with a contour surface corresponding to the curved shape of the structural component and a flat contact part.
- Stacking on a flat surface has the advantage that a large number of layers can be deposited quickly, and the risk of wrinkles is low.
- the forming takes place in a separate (press) forming step.
- the layer structure is formed by sequential stacking of the layers on a curved storage surface and thereby simultaneously deformed into the curved shape, whereby the
- Storage area is formed a contour surface of a molded part of a mold corresponding to the curved shape of the structural component, the molded tool additionally having a flat contact part for forming a cavity with the molded part.
- Each layer is placed on a curved surface and thereby at least partially already formed into the desired shape. This offers the advantage that the individual layers do not have to slide against one another, or only slide to a small extent, which further reduces the risk of wrinkles. It can optionally be provided that layers of the layer structure deposited on the curved contour surface of the molded part are in addition to those in the area of the
- connection point located at the apex at further points
- Connection points are connected thermoplastic. This fixes the layers in their position.
- the layer structure is heated in the cavity of the molding tool. if the Layers have already been deposited on the molded part, the cavity is first closed by the deposit part, thereby compacting the individual layers.
- the molded part of the molding tool is designed as a flat, first molded sheet, the contact part being designed as a flat, second molded sheet.
- the molded part and the plant part are therefore each designed as flat, curved metal plates.
- the molded parts have a low heat capacity. As a result, the cavity can be heated up quickly and with little energy expenditure.
- the molded part can also be designed as a partially solid form, e.g. with a surface section, which forms the contour surface, and with a base section, which is designed as a stiffening structure and supports the surface section.
- a magnetic field is generated to apply the compression pressure by means of a magnetic device, which magnetic field is coupled into a magnetizable material assigned to the first shaped plate and / or into a magnetizable material assigned to the second shaped plate in such a way that the layer structure is subjected to the compression pressure through the shaped plates .
- a magnetic field directed transversely to the contour surface is generated.
- the compression pressure is generated by means of a magnetic force which, for example, can act directly on the shaped sheets, e.g. if the first and / or the second shaped sheet is formed from a magnetizable metal material and the magnetizable material is assigned to the respective shaped sheet in this way.
- the first and / or the second shaped sheet is formed from a magnetizable metal material and the magnetizable material is assigned to the respective shaped sheet in this way.
- Magnet device also coupled to the mold plates magnetizable elements have as a magnetic material, which press the molded sheets relative to one another by the action of the magnetic field. Due to their planar extent, the shaped sheets allow the formation of a shape extending through the cavity in which the layer structure is located
- the molding tool for heating and cooling or consolidating is placed on one mold half, the compression pressure being applied by the molding tool during cooling.
- the mold half can in particular serve as a kind of support for the
- the mold half can also serve as a heat sink.
- Molding tool in the cavity of which the layer structure is accommodated, is pressed together between two mold halves adapted to an outer contour of the molding tool. In this way, the final desired curved shape of the structural component can be produced very precisely.
- Press tool also serves as a heat sink for cooling the layer structure.
- a heating of the layer composite in the cavity of the mold and one Cooling the layer composite in the cavity of a separate pressing tool speeds up the process and saves energy.
- the layer structure is heated by inductive heating of the shaped sheets or by means of
- Infrared radiation Infrared radiation.
- Inductive heating that is to say heating by generating alternating magnetic fields by means of an alternating electrical voltage, offers the advantage that the shaped plates themselves act as a heating device. This enables the cavity to be heated up efficiently. Infrared radiation can advantageously be generated with little design effort. Since the shaped sheets have a low heat capacity, both heating is by means of
- Infrared radiation as well as inductive heating of the mold plates are suitable for generating rapid temperature changes in the cavity, which accelerates both the heating and the cooling of the layer structure.
- a vacuum is created in the cavity of the molding tool.
- air that may be present between or in the layers of the layer structure becomes from the layer structure
- the vacuum can be used at least partially to generate the compression pressure or the pressure for forming. This further speeds up the process.

- the layer structure 100 is deformed into the curved shape.
- This forming step takes place at a forming temperature which is lower than a melting point of the thermoplastic materials 20, 30 des Semifinished product 1.
- the forming temperature is thus less than a melting point of the matrix material 20 of the prepreg strips 2 and less than a melting point of the thermoplastic material 30 of the connecting strands 3.
- the prepreg strips 2 and the reinforcing strands 3 of the semifinished products 1 contained in the layers 110 are in one solid state, which reduces the friction or the viscous adhesion between and within the layers 1 10.
- the reinforcing fibers within the individual prepreg bands are still supported by solid matrix material, so that the fibers are better protected from dents even in the event of a pressure load in the longitudinal direction of the fibers due to the forming process.

- the shaped part 210 and the abutment part 220 are subjected to a force F such that the Layer structure 100 is pressed between molded part 210 and plant part 220.
- the force F can be generated, for example, by creating a vacuum in the cavity 205 of the molding tool 200 by means of a fluidically conductive to the cavity 205
