Further, in the method for widening a toe-like object disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2-36236, a pair of rollers arranged by bringing the peripheral surfaces of a tow-like object into contact with a running path are arranged. At least one is in the rotation axis direction of the roller, that is,
Vibration is performed in a direction perpendicular to the running direction of the toe-like object, and the tension is periodically applied to the tow-like object. Due to this tension fluctuation, the spreading efficiency of the tow-like material is increased when the tension is low, and the orientation of the fiber is increased when the tension is high, thereby improving the effect of widening the tow-like material.

Meanwhile, in CFRP using carbon fibers as the reinforcing fibers, the tensile elastic modulus of the carbon fibers is much larger than that of the matrix resin.
For this reason, when tensile stress acts on CFRP,
The tensile strength of the plastic with respect to the tensile stress is mainly exerted by the carbon fibers. Therefore, the strength of the carbon fiber yarn and the distribution of the carbon fibers in the matrix resin are uniform, and the higher the packing density of the carbon fibers in the matrix resin, the higher the tensile strength as a fiber-reinforced plastic.

Further, fiber reinforced plastics (hereinafter referred to as “FR

Therefore, when the reinforcing fiber yarns are contained in the matrix resin as a sheet-like body aligned in one direction, the tensile strength in one direction is improved.

Further, in recent years, a reinforcing fiber yarn has been incorporated in a matrix resin as a woven fabric arranged in both directions of a warp and a weft to improve the tensile strength in two directions of a warp direction and a weft direction. As described above, in order to be able to cope with the tension from multiple directions and to make the matrix resin contain the reinforcing fibers at a uniform density, it is effective to contain the reinforcing fiber yarns as a woven fabric as described above. A reinforced fiber woven fabric made of a reinforced fiber yarn such as a carbon fiber yarn having a large specific strength and a specific elastic modulus is usually woven by a general shuttle loom or a repiya loom.

However, on the other hand, due to the woven structure, there are cases where the tensile strength as FRP cannot be sufficiently exhibited. That is, at the crossing point where the warp and the weft intersect in the woven fabric, it is undeniable that an intersection angle is generated with respect to the sheet surface of the woven fabric in the thickness direction of the woven fabric caused by the crimping of the warp and the weft. For this reason, when a tensile stress acts on the sheet surface in the warp or weft direction, a force in the shear direction acts on each yarn at the intersection, and the tensile strength of the reinforcing fiber yarn cannot be sufficiently exhibited.

Further, at the intersection, a void is formed by the thickness of the yarn. Therefore, when impregnating a prepreg matrix resin into a woven fabric made of such reinforcing fibers, the void is formed at the intersection at the intersection. There is an inconvenience that the resin becomes richer by the amount, or that voids are not impregnated with the resin and voids are generated. As described above, the FRP product formed by using the prepreg in which the resin becomes rich or voids are generated in the voids also has resin-rich portions and voids. When a tensile stress acts on such an FRP, the stress concentrates on a resin-rich portion or a void portion, whereby the tensile strength of the FRP is not sufficiently exhibited, and further, the FRP is broken by the shearing force at that time. In some cases.

Such inconvenience becomes significant when a yarn composed of fibers having a relatively high count is used as the reinforcing fiber yarn. Therefore, in order to manufacture a reinforcing fiber yarn into a prepreg as a woven fabric, it is particularly important to open and uniform the fibers. This uniformization is not only a problem in terms of strength, but is also indispensable for obtaining a smooth molded product as FRP, and FRP lacking in smoothness impairs its commercial value.

In particular, a woven fabric obtained by weaving a large number of reinforcing fibers of a relatively high count with respect to a relatively low weight per unit area by a general shuttle loom or a repiya loom has an opening ratio. Large, crimped heavily at the intersection of warp and weft. Therefore, the fiber density becomes non-uniform, the smoothness is lacking, and the strength properties are not sufficiently exhibited. Further, in the FRP impregnated with a resin by using such a low-weight reinforced fiber woven fabric, there are many voids present in the matrix resin, and a resin-rich portion can be formed, so that high strength properties cannot be expected. there were.

In order to reduce the crimp at the intersection between the warp and the weft, a method of opening the yarn constituting the reinforcing fiber woven fabric has been proposed.

Further, a guide plate is arranged facing the oscillator in water.
In this opening device, the woven fabric is opened by ultrasonic waves by transferring the woven fabric along the oscillator facing surface of the guide plate.

Further, for example, in a method of manufacturing a carbon fiber woven fabric disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 4-281037, a predetermined nozzle pitch is arranged at a predetermined nozzle pitch on a carbon fiber woven fabric running in the warp direction. A water jet is directed from a plurality of nozzle holes having a diameter, and the warp and the weft are opened by the impact of the water jet to widen and flatten.

However, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. Hei 3-20335 and Hei 7-145556 describe the above.
In any of the methods for opening carbon fiber woven fabric disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Publication, ultrasonic waves act on the woven fabric in water,
In the opening method disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 4-281037, the woven fabric is spread by a water jet. The fabric must be dried. Therefore, not only the manufacturing efficiency of the carbon fiber fabric is reduced, but also a manufacturing machine of the carbon fiber fabric requires a drying means for the fabric in addition to the fiber opening device, and the installation space of the manufacturing machine is disadvantageously increased.

Using the same apparatus as that described above, the vibration force of the vibration table 4 was set to 5 G, the winding speed was set to 3.0 m / min, and heating was performed at 100 ° C. to perform the fiber opening treatment. In the second embodiment, since the steel ball as the hitting member has a smaller diameter than that of the first embodiment, the weight of the steel ball is small and the hitting force per steel ball is small, but the winding speed is set to be lower than that of the first embodiment. In addition to increasing the number of beatings, the heating temperature is increased and the sizing agent viscosity is decreased to reduce the bonding force between filaments. Therefore, the opening ratio of the obtained woven fabric is 0.9%.

In the third embodiment, the exciting force is smaller than that of the second embodiment. However, the winding speed is made slower than that of the second embodiment, the number of hits is increased, and the heating temperature is further increased to reduce the bonding force between the filaments. Since the fabric was in a weakened state, the opening ratio of the obtained woven fabric was extremely small at 0.5%, and the yarn was sufficiently opened. Further, there was no generation of fluff, and the appearance was good. No voids were observed in the prepreg containing such a reinforcing fiber woven fabric.

In the fourth embodiment, since the steel ball serving as a hitting member has a smaller diameter than that of the third embodiment, the weight of the steel ball is small and the hitting force per steel ball is small, but the winding speed is low. By increasing the number of tappings later, and further increasing the heating temperature, the bonding force between the filaments is reduced, so that the obtained woven fabric has an opening ratio of 0.7%, which is almost the same as that of Example 3. Similarly, the yarn was opened. Also,

The fiber opening treatment was performed under the same conditions as in Example 1. Although the resulting woven fabric did not show any fluff, the heating temperature was low and the sizing agent was not softened, and the filaments were connected by the same sizing. Therefore, the opening ratio was as large as 3.1%. Opening was insufficient. Therefore, the thickness increases at the intersection of the warp and the weft,
In the obtained prepreg, voids were observed at the intersections.

(Comparative Example 2) The yarn opening device 1 of the above-mentioned manufacturing apparatus was subjected to the opening process under the same conditions as in Example 1 except that the vibration table 4 was applied with an exciting force of 9G. Since the vibrating force was as large as 9 G, the tapping force against the woven fabric was too large, and the opening ratio of the obtained woven fabric was 2.6%, and the spread was insufficient. In addition, since the tapping force is large, a large amount of fluff is generated, and the fabric cannot sufficiently function as a reinforcing fabric. In addition, voids were observed in the obtained prepreg.

(Comparative Example 3) A fiber opening treatment was performed using the same apparatus as in Example 4 under the same conditions except that the fiber was heated and heated to 200 ° C. By setting the heating temperature higher than that in Example 4, the sizing agent was softened and the bonding force between filaments was weakened, but fluff was generated in the woven fabric even with a small tapping force. Although the opening ratio of the obtained woven fabric was 1.2%, a lot of fluff was generated and the woven fabric was insufficient as a reinforcing woven fabric. In addition, voids were observed in the obtained prepreg.

(Comparative Example 4) A fiber opening treatment was performed using the same apparatus as in Example 4 under the same conditions except that the winding speed was 0.3 m / min. Since the number of taps is increased by setting the winding speed slower than in Example 4,
The opening ratio of the obtained woven fabric was 0.1%, and the opening was sufficient. However, since the number of hits is increased, a large amount of fluff is generated, and a sufficient function as a reinforcing fabric cannot be exhibited. Therefore, voids were recognized in the obtained prepreg.

Comparative Example 5 The same apparatus as in Example 4 was used under the same conditions except that the winding speed was 0.5 m / min and the vibrating table was set to an exciting force of 1.1 G to open the fiber. An opening process was performed. The winding speed was set lower than in Example 4, and the number of tappings was increased. However, since the vibrating force was small and the tapping force required for opening the fiber was small, the opening ratio of the obtained woven fabric was 1
It was as large as 5.5%, and the opening was insufficient. for that reason,
The thickness increased at the intersection of the warp and the weft, and voids were observed in the obtained prepreg at the intersection.
