In conventionally proposed fiber-reinforced resin leaf springs, only the surface layer in the thickness direction of the leaf spring and the layer in the thickness direction near the surface layer are made of particularly strong and expensive reinforcing fibers, that is, carbon fibers. However, the carbon fibers were not arranged and blended in the left and right surface layers of the leaf spring in the width direction. For this reason, the fiber-reinforced resin leaf spring has low torsional rigidity and has not yet achieved sufficient overall strength for practical use. That is, when torsional stress acts on the leaf spring, the value is greatest in the surface layer, and the bending stress must be received by the upper and lower surface layers in the thickness direction and the left and right surface layers in the width direction. Since the carbon fibers are not arranged and blended in the surface layer in the width direction, the torsional rigidity of the entire fiber-reinforced resin leaf spring is reduced in the surface layer.

また単に板厚方向の炭素繊維の配合量を増して
もねじり剛性の増大には余り寄与できないにもか

Furthermore, simply increasing the amount of carbon fiber blended in the plate thickness direction does not significantly contribute to increasing torsional rigidity, but has the disadvantage that the cost of the leaf spring becomes extremely high.

The present invention has been made to eliminate the drawbacks of the prior art described above, and its purpose is to provide a fiber-reinforced resin leaf spring reinforced with reinforcing fibers such as carbon fibers and glass fibers. The purpose is to increase the torsional rigidity of a fiber-reinforced resin leaf spring by arranging and blending carbon fibers in the left and right surface layers in the width direction in addition to the upper and lower surface layers in the thickness direction. Another object of the present invention is to efficiently increase torsional rigidity without increasing the amount of expensive carbon fibers, and to reduce the cost of a fiber-reinforced resin leaf spring.

The present invention will be explained below based on embodiments shown in the drawings. The fiber-reinforced resin leaf spring 1 is reinforced using reinforcing fibers F such as carbon fibers C and glass fibers G, and has upper and lower surface layers 1a and 1b in the thickness direction of the fiber-reinforced resin leaf spring. In addition, carbon fibers C are blended into the left and right surface layers 1c and 1d in the width direction of the fiber-reinforced resin leaf spring 1 by aligning and arranging them in the longitudinal direction of the fiber-reinforced resin leaf spring 1. It has been done. The carbon fiber C uses long fibers to increase the tensile strength in the surface layers 1a, 1b, 1c, and 1d.

The present invention is configured as described above, and its operation will be explained below. When a torsional load is applied to the fiber-reinforced resin leaf spring 1, not only the upper and lower surface layers 1a and 1b but also the left and right surface layers 1c,
1d also generates a large torsional stress, but in the fiber-reinforced resin leaf spring 1 of the present invention, carbon fiber C is also blended in the left and right surface layers 1c and 1d, so that sufficient torsional strength is exhibited. . Furthermore, compared to increasing the torsional strength by increasing the blending amount of carbon fiber C in the surface layers 1a and 1b, the amount of carbon fiber C used can be reduced, and the center layer 1e can be composed only of glass fiber G. It can be produced at low cost because of its high quality.
