【従来の技術】
強化繊維複合材料からなる管状体は、ゴルフクラブシャフト、釣り竿など様々な用途に使用されている。
【0003】
ゴルフクラブシャフトに関して、近年では軽量化の流れが一段と加速されている。軽量化はシャフトの曲げ破断強度の低下を招くことから、これまで優れた曲げ破断強度を有する軽量シャフトを製造することは困難だった。
【0004】
釣り竿では穂先部分が柔軟性を有することが求められる。優れた柔軟性を得るためには穂先部分の肉厚を薄くする方法が有るが、同時に曲げ破断強度の低下を招くことになることから、これまで穂先部分において優れた曲げ破断強度と柔軟性を両立させた釣り竿を製造することは困難だった。
【0005】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a tubular body made of fiber reinforced composite material.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Tubular bodies made of reinforced fiber composite materials are used in various applications such as golf club shafts and fishing rods.
[0003]
In recent years, the trend of weight reduction for golf club shafts has been further accelerated. Since weight reduction causes a decrease in the bending rupture strength of the shaft, it has been difficult to produce a lightweight shaft having an excellent bending rupture strength.
[0004]
A fishing rod is required to have a flexible tip part. In order to obtain excellent flexibility, there is a method of reducing the thickness of the tip part, but at the same time, the bending break strength is reduced, so that excellent bending break strength and flexibility have been achieved in the tip part so far. It was difficult to produce a fishing rod that was compatible.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
An object of the present invention is to solve these conventional problems and to provide a fiber-reinforced composite material tubular body having excellent bending rupture strength, bending rupture deflection, and impact absorption energy.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The above object of the present invention is achieved by the following fiber-reinforced composite material tubular body. That is, the present invention provides a hoop layer formed by laminating reinforcing fiber prepregs in which reinforcing fibers are oriented at ± 70 ° to 90 ° that are substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the tubular body , and the reinforcing fibers in the longitudinal direction of the tubular body. High compression including a straight layer formed by laminating reinforcing fiber prepregs oriented at 0 ° to ± 5 ° which are substantially parallel to each other and carbon fibers oriented at 0 ° to ± 15 ° with respect to the longitudinal direction of the tubular body Compressive elasticity in the orientation direction of carbon fibers, including a fracture strain layer, wherein the compression fracture strain in the orientation direction of carbon fibers of the high compression fracture strain layer is 1 to 5% and the fiber volume content of the carbon fibers is converted to 60%. The present invention relates to a fiber-reinforced composite material tubular body having a rate of 3 to 120 GPa.
[0007]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The tubular body made of fiber-reinforced composite material of the present invention is formed by laminating reinforcing fiber prepregs in which reinforcing fibers are oriented at 0 ° to ± 5 ° that are substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction (axial direction) of the tubular body. It can have a straight layer.
[0008]
Here, the number of layers referred to in the present invention means an average number of layers of specific layers such as a straight layer, that is, how many turns are wound around the axis of the tubular body.
Depending on the use of the tubular body, specifically a golf shaft or the like, the tubular body of the present invention has a reinforcing fiber prepreg in which reinforcing fibers are oriented at ± 20 ° to ± 70 ° with respect to the longitudinal direction of the tubular body. It is possible to have an oblique layer formed by laminating.
[0009]
The oblique layer is usually formed by laminating reinforcing fiber prepregs in which reinforcing fibers are oriented at + 20 ° to + 70 ° with respect to the longitudinal direction of the tubular body, and reinforcing fibers are formed in the tubular shape. There is a positive and negative oblique layer of a negative oblique layer formed by laminating reinforcing fiber prepregs oriented at −20 ° to −70 ° with respect to the longitudinal direction of the body.
[0010]
The positive oblique layer or the negative oblique layer can be alternately laminated every one layer or every plural layers. Further, the number of positive and negative oblique layers may be different from each other.
[0011]
Depending on other uses of the tubular body, in particular, fishing rods, etc., the tubular body of the present invention is oriented at ± 70 ° to 90 ° where the reinforcing fibers are substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the tubular body. It can also have a hoop layer formed by laminating the reinforced fiber prepreg.
[0012]
Examples of the reinforcing fibers used in these reinforcing fiber prepregs include carbon fibers, glass fibers, aramid fibers, ceramic fibers, boron fibers, metal fibers, etc., preferably pitch-based carbon fibers or polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fibers. Can be used. Examples of the matrix resin used for the reinforcing fiber prepreg include a thermosetting resin or a thermoplastic resin selected from an epoxy resin, an unsaturated polyester resin, a phenol resin, a silicone resin, a polyurethane resin, a urea resin, a melamine resin, and the like. Preferably, an epoxy resin is used.
[0013]
As carbon fibers used in these reinforced fiber prepregs, the carbon fiber has a compression breaking strain of 0.05% or more and less than 1.0% with respect to the orientation direction of the carbon fibers, and the fiber volume content of the carbon fibers is 60%. Carbon fibers having a compressive modulus in the orientation direction of the carbon fibers of 125 GPa to 600 GPa can be used.
[0014]
The present invention provides a fiber-reinforced composite material tubular body having such a configuration, in which a prepreg containing carbon fibers having a compression breaking strain of 1.0 to 5.0% and a compression modulus of 3 GPa to 120 GPa is laminated to obtain a high compression breaking strain. A layer is formed.
[0015]
The carbon fiber used in the high compression breaking strain layer has a compression breaking strain of 1 to 5%, preferably 1.5 to 5%, more preferably 1.7 to 5%, most preferably 2 to 5%. The carbon fiber can be used.
[0016]
Moreover, as a carbon fiber used for this high compression fracture | rupture strain layer, the compression elastic modulus is 3 GPa-120 GPa, Preferably 3 GPa-100 GPa carbon fiber is desirable.
[0017]
Moreover, as a carbon fiber used for this high compression breaking strain layer, a carbon fiber with a density of less than 1.9 g / cm 3 , preferably less than 1.8 g / cm 3 can be used. When the density is larger than 1.9 g / cm 3 , the weight of the tubular body is increased, which is not preferable.
[0018]
Further, as the carbon fiber used for the high compression breaking strain layer, a carbon fiber having a strand number of 24000 or less, preferably 12000 or less, more preferably 6000 or less, and most preferably 3000 or less is used. be able to.
[0019]
If the number of filaments in the strand is larger than 24,000, it is not preferable because when the prepreg impregnated with the matrix resin is produced, particularly when a prepreg having a small basis weight of carbon fiber is produced, openings are likely to occur.
[0020]
As the carbon fiber used for the carbon fiber prepreg used in the high compression breaking strain layer, both pitch-based carbon fiber and polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fiber can be used, and pitch-based carbon fiber is particularly preferable. The matrix resin used for the carbon fiber prepreg used in the high compression fracture strain layer is thermosetting selected from epoxy resin, unsaturated polyester resin, phenol resin, silicone resin, polyurethane resin, urea resin, melamine resin, etc. Resin or thermoplastic resin is mentioned, Preferably an epoxy resin is mentioned.
[0021]
There is no particular limitation on the weight of the reinforcing fibers in the prepreg in the present invention, usually, 20 to 300 g / m 2, preferably is used in the range of 50 to 200 g / m 2. If the basis weight of the reinforcing fiber is larger than 300 g / m 2, the degree of freedom in designing the tubular body is limited, which is not preferable. Further, if the basis weight of the reinforcing fiber is less than 20 g / m 2 , wrinkles are likely to occur in the prepreg during the production of the tubular body, which is not preferable.
[0022]
