Descrizione del trovato avente per titolo: Description of the invention having as title:
"RULLO IN MATERIALE COMPOSITO FILETTATO E RELATIVO PROCEDIMENTO DI REALIZZAZIONE" "ROLL IN COMPOSITE THREADED MATERIAL AND RELATIVE PROCESS OF REALIZATION"
CAMPO DI APPLICAZIONE FIELD OF APPLICATION
Il presente trovato si riferisce ad un rullo, o tubo, costruito in materiale composito, in particolare fibra di carbonio o vetro o vetro/carbonio prodotto col processo del mandrel wrapping o tape winding, che opportunamente filettato in prossimità dei suoi estremi, viene associato a dadi, o boccole, anch'essi filettati e così uniti anche con l'impiego di colle. The present invention refers to a roller, or tube, made of composite material, in particular carbon fiber or glass or glass / carbon produced with the mandrel wrapping or tape winding process, which, suitably threaded near its ends, is associated with nuts, or bushings, also threaded and thus joined also with the use of glues.
STATO DELLA TECNICA STATE OF THE TECHNIQUE
Sono noti rulli in materiale composito che vengono associati a dadi o boccole realizzati sia in materiale composito che in metallo. Detti dadi, o boccole, possono essere associati ai rulli, o tubi, mediante colle di tipo noto, oppure per avvitamento nel caso in cui siano filettate. Rollers made of composite material are known which are associated with nuts or bushings made both of composite material and of metal. Said nuts, or bushings, can be associated with the rollers, or tubes, by means of known types of glue, or by screwing if they are threaded.
Nel primo caso, la tecnica nota presenta alcune difficoltà applicative. Le colle hanno una tenuta ottimale solo se le superfici sono perfettamente pulite al fine di evitare sia che loro parti siano prive di colla, o ne abbiano in abbondanza il che porterebbe ad una differente resistenza dei pezzi — alle pressioni e/o trazioni a cui sono sottoposti — in modo non uniforme. In the first case, the known art presents some application difficulties. The glues have an optimal seal only if the surfaces are perfectly clean in order to avoid both their parts being glue-free, or having an abundance of it, which would lead to a different resistance of the pieces - to the pressures and / or tractions to which they are subjected - unevenly.
Un altro problema di questa tecnica nota è che su tutta la parte delle superfici interessate all'accoppiamento, non devono essere presenti bolle d'aria il che comporta sia un'assenza di colla, sia una differente cooperazione, e resistenza, dei materiali associati. Another problem of this known technique is that on the whole part of the surfaces involved in the coupling, no air bubbles must be present, which entails both an absence of glue and a different cooperation and resistance of the associated materials.
Un altro problema ancora di questa tecnica nota, per i rulli o tubi con boccole dotate di cappello o spallamento, è che detti rulli e dette boccole, nella parte terminale che va in battuta l'uno con l'altra, deve essere tagliato in modo che detta battuta non abbia interruzioni, o salti, ovvero siano con assi perfettamente ortogonali, questo al fine di ottimizzare la tenuta dell'accoppiamento e di mantenere in asse i due elementi così accoppiati. Nonostante questo accorgimento di taglio ortogonale del tubo al suo asse l'incollaggio non viene garantita la coassialità fra rullo in fibra e boccola in metallo. Yet another problem of this known technique, for rollers or tubes with bushings equipped with a cap or shoulder, is that said rollers and said bushings, in the terminal part that abut one with the other, must be cut in such a way that said stop does not have interruptions or jumps, that is to say that they have perfectly orthogonal axes, this in order to optimize the tightness of the coupling and to keep the two elements thus coupled in axis. Despite this expedient of orthogonal cutting of the tube to its axis, the coaxiality between the fiber roller and the metal bushing is not guaranteed.
La seconda tecnica nota (filettatura) si applica ad oggi ai soli rulli prodotti con la tecnica produttiva del pultruso o del filament winding. The second known technique (threading) is currently applied only to rollers produced with the pultruded or filament winding production technique.
Sempre con riferimento a questa tecnica nota, in tutti i processi produttivi usati per realizzare rulli in composito, o tubi e che vengono lavorati meccanicamente per realizzare delle filettature, si vengono a tranciare i fili della fibra che — in fase produttiva - sono apposti longitudinalmente all'asse del rullo o tubo o con un angolo della giacitura della fibra superiore a quello del passo della filettatura stessa. Still with reference to this known technique, in all the production processes used to make composite rolls, or tubes and which are mechanically processed to make threads, the threads of the fiber are sheared which - in the production phase - are affixed longitudinally to the axis of the roller or tube or with an angle of the laying of the fiber greater than that of the pitch of the thread itself.
Così non tutti gli spessori, ovvero gli strati del composito di detti rulli, o tubi, possono essere utilizzati per l'accoppiamento a dadi, o boccole, realizzati anche in altro materiale e non solo in composito, ma presentano il costante problema dell'indebolimento strutturale del tubo in composito nella zona in cui vengono create le filettature, indipendentemente dallo spessore del tubo. Gli elementi definiti dall'insieme di tubi e boccole quando vengono sottoposti a pressioni o trazioni o sollecitazioni diverse che per lo spessore del tubo stesso potrebbero sopportare, scoppiano, o comunque si rompono a causa della lavorazione meccanica utilizzata per la filettatura. Oppure impongono di essere utilizzati dei tubi con spessori ben maggiori per la pressione o trazione a cui deve essere sottoposto così imponendo quantomeno maggiori costi, calcoli non controllabili per la sicurezza del prodotto finale, maggiori ingombri. Thus not all the thicknesses, that is the layers of the composite of said rollers, or tubes, can be used for coupling with nuts, or bushings, also made of other material and not only composite, but present the constant problem of weakening structure of the composite pipe in the area where the threads are created, regardless of the thickness of the pipe. The elements defined by the set of tubes and bushings when subjected to different pressures or tractions or stresses which, due to the thickness of the tube itself, could withstand, burst, or in any case break due to the mechanical processing used for threading. Or they require pipes with much greater thicknesses to be used due to the pressure or traction to which it must be subjected, thus imposing at least higher costs, calculations that cannot be controlled for the safety of the final product, larger dimensions.
Uno scopo del presente trovato è quello di realizzare un rullo, o tubo, in materiale composito, prodotto in mandrel wrapping o tape winding con fibre disposte prevalentemente a sviluppo circonferenziale rispetto all'asse del tubo, nella zona interessata alla lavorazione meccanica, per creare delle filettature, le quali si sviluppano anch'esse secondo uno sviluppo circonferenziale, in prossimità di almeno un suo vertice al fine di essere associato per avvitamento ad un dado, o boccola, realizzato anche in materiale differente da quello composito così da permettere la tenuta voluta per qualsiasi pressione o trazione. An object of the present invention is to provide a roller, or tube, in composite material, produced in mandrel wrapping or tape winding with fibers arranged mainly circumferentially with respect to the axis of the tube, in the area involved in mechanical processing, to create threads, which also develop according to a circumferential development, near at least one of its vertex in order to be associated by screwing with a nut, or bush, also made of a material different from the composite one so as to allow the desired seal for any pressure or pull.
Detta soluzione può essere integrata anche da opportuno incollaggio della boccola al tubo. Said solution can also be supplemented by suitable gluing of the bushing to the pipe.
Per ovviare agli inconvenienti della tecnica nota e per ottenere questo ed ulteriori scopi e vantaggi, la Richiedente ha studiato, sperimentato e realizzato il presente trovato. In order to obviate the drawbacks of the known art and to obtain this and further objects and advantages, the Applicant has studied, tested and implemented the present invention.
ESPOSIZIONE DEL TROVATO EXPOSURE OF THE FOUND
Il presente trovato è espresso e caratterizzato nelle rivendicazioni indipendenti. The present invention is expressed and characterized in the independent claims.
Le rivendicazioni secondarie espongono altre caratteristiche del presente trovato o varianti dell'idea di soluzione principale. The secondary claims disclose other characteristics of the present invention or variants of the main solution idea.
In accordo con il suddetto scopo è stato ideato e prototipato un rullo, o tubo, realizzato in mandrel wrapping o tape winding che, in prossimità di almeno una zona interessata alla filettatura presenta fibre disposte in prevalenza circonferenzialmente rispetto l'asse del tubo, o rullo, stesso. In accordance with the aforementioned purpose, a roller or tube made of mandrel wrapping or tape winding has been designed and prototyped which, in proximity to at least one area affected by the thread, has fibers arranged mainly circumferentially with respect to the axis of the tube, or roller. , same.
La presenza di fibre così disposte permette di non interrompere, e quindi aumentare, la tenuta strutturale del tubo, o rullo, nella zona della filettatura in quanto le fibre del materiale composito utilizzato non vengono più incise a causa della lavorazione meccanica necessaria a creare detta filettatura. The presence of fibers arranged in this way allows not to interrupt, and therefore increase, the structural seal of the tube, or roller, in the area of the thread since the fibers of the composite material used are no longer engraved due to the mechanical processing necessary to create said thread. .
In particolare, il presente trovato sottende un rapporto preferenziale come di seguito specificato nella zona del tubo interessato alla filettatura: In particular, the present invention underlies a preferential relationship as specified below in the area of the pipe involved in the thread:
ST = SC SL ST = SC SL
dove : where is it :
ST = è lo spessore del tubo; ST = is the thickness of the tube;
SC = è lo spessore della porzione di ST di fibre circonf erenziali composta da SF un minimo ulteriore di 0,2mm di fibre circonferenziali; SC = is the thickness of the portion of ST of circumferential fibers composed of SF an additional minimum of 0.2mm of circumferential fibers;
SF = è lo spessore della filettatura, compresa tra un minimo di 0,02 ad un massimo di 0,5 volte ST; SL = spessore fibre longitudinali; SF = is the thickness of the thread, ranging from a minimum of 0.02 to a maximum of 0.5 times ST; SL = longitudinal fiber thickness;
e dove and where
SC può essere uguale a ST, ciò sottendendo l'assenza o la presenza in parti ridotte di fibre longitudinali quantomeno nella zona interessata alla filettatura. SC can be equal to ST, which implies the absence or presence in small parts of longitudinal fibers at least in the area involved in the thread.
In particolare, secondo forme di realizzazione vantaggiose si può prevedere che in detta zona interessata dalla filettatura, le fibre circonferenziali siano almeno il 50% delle restanti fiBneforme di realizzazione preferenziali, in detta zona, la presenza di fibre circonferenzili è almeno il 70% delle restanti fibre. In forme di realizzazione ancor più preferenziali, in detta zona, la presenza di fibre circonf erenzili è almeno il 90% delle restanti fibre. In particular, according to advantageous embodiments it can be provided that in said area affected by the thread, the circumferential fibers are at least 50% of the remaining preferential embodiments, in said area, the presence of circumferential fibers is at least 70% of the remaining fibers. In even more preferential embodiments, in said zone, the presence of circumferential fibers is at least 90% of the remaining fibers.
In forme di realizzazione ancora più preferenziali, in detta zona sono presenti unicamente fibre circonferenziali . In even more preferential embodiments, only circumferential fibers are present in said zone.
Con riferimento a quanto sopra detto, le restanti fibre possono avere uno sviluppo sostanzialmente longitudinale lungo l'estensione del rullo oppure si possono estendere anche secondo ulteriori direzioni . With reference to what has been said above, the remaining fibers can have a substantially longitudinal development along the extension of the roller or they can also extend in further directions.
La filettatura avrà quindi una profondità sempre inferiore allo spessore del tubo sostanzialmente composto da fibre circonferenzialmente disposte. Dette fibre circonferenziali saranno prevalentemente disposte verso la superficie, interna o esterna, del tubo, o rullo, che presenta la filettatura. The thread will therefore have a depth that is always less than the thickness of the tube substantially composed of circumferentially arranged fibers. Said circumferential fibers will be mainly disposed towards the surface, internal or external, of the tube, or roller, which has the thread.
Quando dette fibre circonferenziali cooperano con le fibre longitudinali — nella zona interessata alla filettatura - queste ultime sono poste o sopra, o sotto gli strati di fibre circonferenziali ove avviene la filettatura. When said circumferential fibers cooperate with the longitudinal fibers - in the area affected by the threading - the latter are placed either above or below the layers of circumferential fibers where the threading takes place.
Il fatto che una pluralità di fibre poste circonferenzialmente in prossimità della zona interessata dalla filettatura, fa sì che quest'ultima non interrompa la tenuta strutturale data dalle fibre circonferenziali — come avviene nel caso delle fibre longitudinali — e permetta al rullo, o tubo, di accoppiarsi al dado, o boccola, in modo opportuno senza possibilità di rotture. The fact that a plurality of fibers placed circumferentially in the vicinity of the area affected by the thread, means that the latter does not interrupt the structural seal given by the circumferential fibers - as occurs in the case of longitudinal fibers - and allows the roller, or tube, to couple to the nut or bushing in an appropriate way without the possibility of breakage.
Un altro vantaggio del presente trovato è che la lavorazione meccanica atta a creare la filettatura, fa sì che il dado o boccola venga a contatto diretto con le fibre integre, o sostanzialmente integre, senza l'interruzione rappresentata dallo strato intermedio definito dalla resina propria di tutti i materiali compositi che, grazie alla filettatura, viene rimossa e lascia le fibre scoperte. Questo accorgimento fa si che la resina non sia elemento di trasmissione della trazione o pressione a cui il tubo è interessato, e che dette forze vengano direttamente scaricate almeno sulle fibre circonferenziali così da poter essere meglio distribuite e non creare le rotture note nei prodotti appartenenti allo stato della tecnica. Another advantage of the present invention is that the mechanical processing suitable for creating the thread causes the nut or bush to come into direct contact with the intact or substantially intact fibers, without the interruption represented by the intermediate layer defined by the own resin of all composite materials which, thanks to the thread, is removed and leaves the fibers uncovered. This arrangement means that the resin is not an element of transmission of the traction or pressure to which the tube is concerned, and that said forces are directly discharged at least on the circumferential fibers so as to be better distributed and not to create the known breaks in the products belonging to the state of the art.
Altro vantaggio del presente trovato è che l'eventuale applicazione di colla nota nella zona interessata alla filettatura perfeziona la capacità di tenuta del prodotto così realizzato, non lo limita come nella tecnica nota. Infatti, la filettatura, o meglio l'avvitamento del dado/boccola sul rullo, fa sì che la colla venga uniformemente distribuita anche in diretto contatto con le fibre integre, o sostanzialmente integre, quantomeno nella zona filettata e contribuisca anche ad evitare lo sviamento del dado/boccola. Another advantage of the present invention is that the possible application of known glue in the area affected by the thread improves the sealing capacity of the product thus made, it does not limit it as in the known art. In fact, the thread, or rather the screwing of the nut / bushing onto the roller, ensures that the glue is evenly distributed even in direct contact with the intact or substantially intact fibers, at least in the threaded area and also helps to avoid the deflection of the nut / bushing.
Così realizzato il prodotto fa sì che la pressione, o trazione a cui viene sottoposto si distribuisca direttamente almeno alle fibre circonferenziali e venga uniformemente distribuito sul tubo stesso che in tal caso — come nel caso del dado avvitato sul rullo senza colla - non presenta interruzioni nella sua struttura. Made in this way, the product ensures that the pressure, or traction to which it is subjected is distributed directly at least to the circumferential fibers and is uniformly distributed on the tube itself which in this case - as in the case of the nut screwed onto the roller without glue - does not have interruptions in the its structure.
La filettatura nel tubo può essere sia esterna che interna e in tal caso il dado o boccola sarà rispettivamente avvitato all'esterno, o all'interno del tubo. The thread in the tube can be both external and internal and in this case the nut or bushing will be respectively screwed to the outside or inside of the tube.
Come sopra accennato nel caso in cui la filettatura è presente all'esterno del tubo, le fibre circonferenziali saranno disposte in prossimità della superficie esterna del tubo, viceversa, nel caso in cui la filettatura è presente all'interno del tubo. Un tubo così come descritto si realizza su un mandrino maschio secondo tecnica nota, ma che viene ad essere migliorata in senso innovativo poiché in prossimità dei vertici del tubo, o rullo — in fase di accoppiamento delle fibre di materiale composito come carbonio o vetro o vetro e carbonio — alcuni strati vengono ad essere disposti in modo tale che le fibre siano circonferenziali rispetto l'asse del tubo, o rullo. As mentioned above, in the case in which the thread is present outside the tube, the circumferential fibers will be arranged near the external surface of the tube, vice versa, in the case in which the thread is present inside the tube. A tube as described is made on a male mandrel according to the known technique, but which is improved in an innovative sense since near the vertices of the tube, or roller - during the coupling phase of the fibers of composite material such as carbon or glass or glass and carbon - some layers are arranged in such a way that the fibers are circumferential with respect to the axis of the tube, or roll.
La profondità delle fibre circonferenziali e/o la loro presenza verso la superficie interna, o esterna, o verso entrambi le superfici del tubo, o rullo, dipende dallo spessore del tubo e dalla funzione a cui detto è destinato. The depth of the circumferential fibers and / or their presence towards the internal or external surface, or towards both surfaces of the tube, or roller, depends on the thickness of the tube and on the function it is intended for.
Per i rulli o tubi con boccole dotate di cappello o spallamento e sistema di fissaggio filettato, il taglio ortogonale del tubo al suo asse garantisce la coassialità di collegamento fra rullo in fibra e boccola in metallo. For rollers or tubes with bushings equipped with a cap or shoulder and threaded fastening system, the perpendicular cut of the tube to its axis guarantees the coaxial connection between the fiber roller and the metal bush.

DESCRIZIONE DI ALCUNE FORME PREFERENZIALI DI REA- DESCRIPTION OF SOME PREFERENTIAL FORMS OF REA-
LIZZAZIONE DEL TROVATO LIZATION OF THE FOUND
Con riferimento alla fig. 1, un rullo in materiale composito filettato viene indicato nel suo complesso con il numero di riferimento 10, e comprende un corpo tubolare 13, cavo internamente a definire una superficie esterna 11 ed una superficie interna 12 With reference to fig. 1, a roller made of threaded composite material is indicated as a whole with the reference number 10, and comprises a tubular body 13, hollow internally to define an external surface 11 and an internal surface 12
Il corpo tubolare 13 presenta un'estremità 15 provvista, sulla superficie interna 12 di una porzione filettata 16 che si protrae fino al bordo terminale del corpo tubolare 13. The tubular body 13 has an end 15 provided, on the internal surface 12, with a threaded portion 16 which extends to the terminal edge of the tubular body 13.
Alla porzione filettata 16 è associato un elemento filettato, nella fattispecie una boccola 17, di tipo maschio, adatta a supportare eventuali elementi accessori, nella fattispecie un cuscinetto 18. A threaded element is associated with the threaded portion 16, in this case a bushing 17, of the male type, suitable for supporting any accessory elements, in this case a bearing 18.
In particolare, la boccola 17 è provvista sulla sua superficie esterna di una porzione filettata adatta ad essere avvitata nella porzione filettata 16 della boccola 17. In particular, the bush 17 is provided on its external surface with a threaded portion suitable to be screwed into the threaded portion 16 of the bush 17.
La boccola 17 è provvista di uno spallamento 19 che, in uso, è in battuta contro il bordo terminale del corpo tubolare 13. The bush 17 is provided with a shoulder 19 which, in use, abuts against the terminal edge of the tubular body 13.
Per garantire la coassialità fra il corpo tubolare 13 e la boccola 17, il bordo terminale dell'estremità 15 del corpo tubolare 13 deve essere sostanzialmente complanare con la superficie di battuta dello spallamento 19 della boccola 17. Ciò permette di evitare disallineamenti assiali fra corpo tubolare 13 e boccola 17, e di ottenere un rullo 10 equilibrato. To ensure coaxiality between the tubular body 13 and the bushing 17, the terminal edge of the end 15 of the tubular body 13 must be substantially coplanar with the abutment surface of the shoulder 19 of the bushing 17. This allows to avoid axial misalignments between the tubular body. 13 and bushing 17, and to obtain a balanced roller 10.
In un'altra forma di realizzazione (fig. 2), la porzione filettata viene indicata con il numero di riferimento 116 e anziché essere ricavata sulla superficie interna 12 del corpo tubolare 13 è ricavata sulla superficie esterna 11. In another embodiment (fig. 2), the threaded portion is indicated with the reference number 116 and instead of being formed on the internal surface 12 of the tubular body 13 it is formed on the external surface 11.
La porzione filetta 116 è adatta a permettere il collegamento di un elemento filettato, nella fattispecie un dado 170 conformato sostanzialmente a cappello che chiude l'estremità 15 definendo con la superficie interna 12 una cavità sostanzialmente chiusa. The threaded portion 116 is adapted to allow the connection of a threaded element, in this case a nut 170 substantially shaped like a cap which closes the end 15 defining with the internal surface 12 a substantially closed cavity.
Il corpo tubolare 13 (fig. 3) è realizzato con materiale composito scelto in un gruppo comprendente fibre di vetro, fibre di carbonio, fibre di vetro e carbonio o simili. The tubular body 13 (Fig. 3) is made of a composite material selected from a group comprising glass fibers, carbon fibers, glass and carbon fibers or the like.
Gli elementi filettati, ovvero la boccola 17 (fig. 1) o il dado 170 (fig. 2) possono essere realizzati anch'essi con materiale composito oppure con materiali metallici come acciaio, alluminio, titanio o simili ed assimilabili. The threaded elements, that is the bushing 17 (fig. 1) or the nut 170 (fig. 2) can also be made with composite material or with metallic materials such as steel, aluminum, titanium or similar and similar materials.
Il corpo tubolare 13 ha uno spessore ST che determina la resistenza meccanica del rullo 10 a carichi di pressione, trazione cui sarà sottoposto. La porzione filettata 116 presenta un profilo della filettatura 23 avente un'altezza, o spessore della filettatura SF, che è funzione del diametro esterno del corpo tubolare 13, e della tipologia di filettatura che si vuole realizzare. The tubular body 13 has a thickness ST which determines the mechanical resistance of the roller 10 to loads of pressure, traction to which it will be subjected. The threaded portion 116 has a profile of the thread 23 having a height, or thickness of the thread SF, which is a function of the external diameter of the tubular body 13, and of the type of thread to be made.
Risulta inoltre vantaggioso prevedere che lo spessore delle filettatura SF sia compreso fra circa 0.02 e circa 0.5 volte lo spessore del tubo ST, ovvero : It is also advantageous to provide that the thickness of the threads SF is between about 0.02 and about 0.5 times the thickness of the tube ST, that is:
0.02 ST < SF < 0.5 ST 0.02 ST <SF <0.5 ST
Almeno l'estremità 15 del corpo tubolare 13 è provvista di almeno una prima zona 21 disposta in prossimità della suddetta porzione filettata 116, più esterna provvista di una pluralità di fibre che si estendono/avvolgono lungo una direzione circonferenziale C (fig. 5), del corpo tubolare 13 e nel seguito riportate come fibre circonferenziali 25, e di almeno una seconda zona 22 (fig. 3), più interna rispetto alla prima zona 21, provvista di una pluralità di fibre che si sviluppano lungo una direzione longitudinale (L), nel seguito riportate come fibre longitudinali 26. At least the end 15 of the tubular body 13 is provided with at least a first zone 21 arranged in proximity to the aforementioned threaded portion 116, more external provided with a plurality of fibers which extend / wind along a circumferential direction C (fig. 5), of the tubular body 13 and hereinafter referred to as circumferential fibers 25, and of at least a second zone 22 (fig. 3), more internal than the first zone 21, provided with a plurality of fibers which develop along a longitudinal direction (L) , hereinafter referred to as longitudinal fibers 26.
La prima zona 21 e la seconda zona 22 hanno, nella fattispecie, una forma a corona circolare e presentano rispettivamente uno spessore SC ed uno spessore SL. The first zone 21 and the second zone 22 have, in this case, a circular crown shape and have respectively a thickness SC and a thickness SL.
In particolare, nel tratto compreso fra la porzione filettata 116, si prevede valida la relazione : In particular, in the section between the threaded portion 116, the relation is expected to be valid:
ST = SC SL ST = SC SL
Lo spessore SC della prima zona 21 è maggiore rispetto allo spessore della filettatura SF di almeno uno spessore aggiuntivo SA. The thickness SC of the first zone 21 is greater than the thickness of the thread SF by at least one additional thickness SA.
Lo spessore aggiuntivo SA è almeno superiore a 0.2 mm, preferibilmente superiore rispetto allo spessore delle fibre circonferenziali 25. The additional thickness SA is at least greater than 0.2 mm, preferably greater than the thickness of the circumferential fibers 25.
Di conseguenza risulta valida la relazione: Consequently, the relationship is valid:
SC = SF SA SC = SF SA
In forme di realizzazione vantaggiose (figg. 4 e 5), si può prevedere che la seconda zona 22 presenti sia fibre longitudinali 25 sia fibre circonferenziali 26; in questo modo è possibile conferire al corpo tubolare 13 una maggiore resistenza meccanica. In advantageous embodiments (Figs. 4 and 5), the second zone 22 can be provided with both longitudinal fibers 25 and circumferential fibers 26; in this way it is possible to give the tubular body 13 greater mechanical strength.
In altre forme di realizzazione ancora, si può prevedere che nella seconda zona 22, oltre a fibre circonferenziali ed a fibre longitudinali siano presenti fibre che si estendono secondo altre direzioni. In still other embodiments, it can be envisaged that in the second zone 22, in addition to circumferential fibers and longitudinal fibers, there are fibers which extend in other directions.
Analogamente anche la prima zona può presentare, oltre alle fibre circonferenziali 25, anche fibre che si estendono secondo altre direzioni ad esempio longitudinali. Le fibre disposte secondo direzione non circonferenziale in questo caso fungono da riempimento con le altre fibre, ed anche se vengono interrotte, durante la fase di realizzazione della filettatura, la resistenza di quest'ultima viene garantita dalla presenza delle fibre circonferenziali 25. Similarly, the first zone can also present, in addition to the circumferential fibers 25, also fibers which extend in other directions, for example longitudinal. The fibers arranged in a non-circumferential direction in this case act as a filling with the other fibers, and even if they are interrupted during the threading phase, the resistance of the latter is guaranteed by the presence of the circumferential fibers 25.
In questo caso risulta comunque vantaggioso prevedere che almeno il 50%, preferibilmente il 70%, ancor più preferibilmente il 90%, siano fibre circonferenziali 25, rispetto alle fibre complessive. È di tutta evidenza che una duale disposizione della prima 21 e della seconda zona 22 sia prevista anche per il caso rappresentato in fig. 1, ovvero prevedendo che la prima zona 21 sia disposta sostanzialmente in prossimità della superficie interna 12 del corpo tubolare 13, almeno ove è presente la porzione filettata 16, e la seconda zona si estenda dalla prima zona 21 verso la superficie esterna 11 del corpo tubolare 13. In this case it is however advantageous to provide that at least 50%, preferably 70%, even more preferably 90%, are circumferential fibers 25, with respect to the total fibers. It is evident that a dual arrangement of the first 21 and of the second zone 22 is also provided for the case shown in fig. 1, or providing that the first zone 21 is arranged substantially in proximity to the internal surface 12 of the tubular body 13, at least where the threaded portion 16 is present, and the second zone extends from the first zone 21 towards the external surface 11 of the tubular body 13.
Fra la porzione filettata 16 o 116 dell'estremità 15 del corpo tubolare 13 e la porzione filettata dell'elemento filettato, ovvero della boccola 17 o del dado 170, quando essi sono assemblati fra loro, si viene a definire un interspazio 28, almeno fra le creste ed il fondo di ciascun filetto, che vengono riempiti con uno strato di colla 29 per evitare un allentamento indesiderato del collegamento filettato. Between the threaded portion 16 or 116 of the end 15 of the tubular body 13 and the threaded portion of the threaded element, or of the bush 17 or of the nut 170, when they are assembled together, a gap 28 is defined, at least between the ridges and the bottom of each thread, which are filled with a layer of glue 29 to prevent unwanted loosening of the threaded connection.
II presente trovato è relativo anche al connesso procedimento di realizzazione del rullo in materiale composito filettato 10. The present invention also relates to the related manufacturing process of the threaded composite material roller 10.
In particolare, è prevista una prima fase di realizzazione del corpo tubolare 13 mediante tecniche comprendenti almeno mandrel wrapping e tape winding. Durante tale fase il materiale con cui è realizzato il corpo tubolare 13 viene disposto in modo noto su un mandrino maschio definendo sia la prima 21 sia la seconda zona 22, ovvero disponendo sia le fibre circonferenziali 25 che quelle radiali 26 secondo le modalità sopra descritte. In particular, a first step is envisaged for manufacturing the tubular body 13 by means of techniques comprising at least mandrel wrapping and tape winding. During this phase, the material with which the tubular body 13 is made is arranged in a known way on a male mandrel defining both the first 21 and the second zone 22, that is, arranging both the circumferential fibers 25 and the radial ones 26 according to the methods described above.
Le fibre 25, 26 vengono annegate in un materiale polimerico, o in resine termoindurenti, i quali provvedono a mantenerle legate fra loro. The fibers 25, 26 are embedded in a polymeric material, or in thermosetting resins, which keep them linked together.
II corpo tubolare 13 così ottenuto è privo della porzione filettata 15, e può essere sottoposto anche a trattamenti in camera a vuoto per stabilizzare la polimerizzazione dei materiali polimerici o delle resine termoindurenti. The tubular body 13 thus obtained is devoid of the threaded portion 15, and can also be subjected to treatments in a vacuum chamber to stabilize the polymerization of polymeric materials or thermosetting resins.
Successivamente è prevista una seconda fase di realizzazione della porzione filettata 16, 116, in prossimità dell'estremità 15, mediante lavorazioni per asportazione di materiale. Durante tale fase l'utensile definisce il profilo di ciascun filetto asportando materiale dalla prima zona 21 per uno spessore pari allo spessore SF. Subsequently, a second step is envisaged for producing the threaded portion 16, 116, near the end 15, by means of machining by removing material. During this phase the tool defines the profile of each thread by removing material from the first zone 21 for a thickness equal to the thickness SF.
Dato che la prima zona 21 presenta unicamente fibre circonferenziali 25, che sono avvolte sostanzialmente in modo coordinato allo sviluppo della filettatura, le fibre longitudinali 25 non vengono interrotte alterando la loro resistenza strutturale. Da ciò deriva pertanto una maggiore resistenza del collegamento filettato sia a carichi di pressione che di trazione cui il rullo 10 può essere sottoposto durante l'uso. Since the first zone 21 has only circumferential fibers 25, which are wound substantially in a manner coordinated with the development of the thread, the longitudinal fibers 25 are not interrupted by altering their structural strength. This results in a greater resistance of the threaded connection to both pressure and tensile loads to which the roller 10 can be subjected during use.
Si prevede poi una terza fase in cui l'elemento filettato, boccola 17 o dado 170, vengono avvitati nella porzione filettata 16 rispettivamente 116 per realizzare il loro collegamento reciproco. A third step is then provided in which the threaded element, bushing 17 or nut 170, are screwed into the threaded portion 16 respectively 116 to make their mutual connection.
Durante tale terza fase è possibile prevedere che, prima del collegamento reciproco fra elemento filettato 17, 170 e corpo tubolare 13, sulle loro porzioni che verranno unite venga spalmato uno strato di colla 29. During this third phase it is possible to provide that, before the mutual connection between the threaded element 17, 170 and the tubular body 13, a layer of glue 29 is spread on their portions to be joined.
In questo modo durante l'avvitamento e dopo l'essiccazione della colla, si realizza il loro collegamento stabile reciproco. In this way, during screwing in and after drying of the glue, their stable connection to each other is achieved.
È anche chiaro che, sebbene il presente trovato sia stato descritto con riferimento ad alcuni esempi specifici, una persona esperta del ramo potrà senz'altro realizzare molte altre forme equivalenti, aventi le caratteristiche espresse nelle rivendicazioni e quindi tutte rientranti nell'ambito di protezione da esse definito. It is also clear that, although the present invention has been described with reference to some specific examples, a person skilled in the art will certainly be able to realize many other equivalent shapes, having the characteristics expressed in the claims and therefore all falling within the scope of protection from they defined.
Ad esempio è possibile prevedere che, in forme di realizzazione, la porzione di tubo prossima alla superficie esterna 11, od interna 12 e disposta in prossimità della prima zona 21 costituita da fibre circonf erenziali 25, presenti una disposizione delle fibre diversa dallo sviluppo circonferenziali , ad esempio fibre disposte sostanzialmente longitudinali. For example, it is possible to provide that, in embodiments, the portion of the tube close to the external surface 11, or internal 12 and arranged in the vicinity of the first zone 21 consisting of circumferential fibers 25, has an arrangement of the fibers different from the circumferential development, for example fibers arranged substantially longitudinally.
In questo modo, infatti, solo la porzione del tubo che è interessata dalla filettatura è provvista della prima zona con fibre circonferenziali, mentre la restante parte può avere fibre disposte secondo uno sviluppo tale da ottimizzare le caratteristiche meccaniche del rullo 10 in tali zone. In this way, in fact, only the portion of the tube which is affected by the thread is provided with the first zone with circumferential fibers, while the remaining part can have fibers arranged in such a way as to optimize the mechanical characteristics of the roller 10 in these zones.
In altre forme di realizzazione, il corpo tubolare 13 è provvisto ad entrambe le sue estremità di porzioni filettate ricavate su rispettive prime zone aventi le caratteristiche sopra descritte. In other embodiments, the tubular body 13 is provided at both its ends with threaded portions obtained on respective first areas having the characteristics described above.
In questo caso risulta vantaggioso prevedere che la filettatura ricavata ad una estremità sia opposta rispetto alla filettatura ricavata nell'altra estremità, ad esempio prevedendo da un lato una filettatura destra mentre dall'altro una filettatura sinistra. In questo modo gli elementi filettati che vengono avvitati alle due estremità quando portati in rotazione determinano un autobloccaggio del collegamento filettato. In this case it is advantageous to provide that the thread obtained at one end is opposite to the thread obtained at the other end, for example by providing a right-hand thread on one side and a left-hand thread on the other. In this way, the threaded elements which are screwed at both ends when rotated determine a self-locking of the threaded connection.
