BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a preform needle punching method and apparatus, A conveyor assembly provided on the base frame for conveying the sheet stacked with the sheets forming the preforms; A vertical drive unit provided in the base frame for generating a vertical drive force; A needle punching member connected to the up-and-down driving unit and performing needle punching of the sheet stacked body conveyed along the conveyor assembly while receiving the up-down driving force of the up-down driving unit and moving up and down; And a reverse unit for inverting the sheet stack conveyed along the conveyor assembly. According to the present invention, not only the binding force of the preform in the sheet stacking direction is increased but also the density of the preform is made uniform.
Description
The present invention relates to a preform needle punching method and apparatus.
Carbon-carbon composites are used as brake discs for aircraft and automobiles because of their excellent friction and abrasion characteristics and thermal shock resistance.
The carbon composite material can be roughly classified into a process of producing a preform using carbon fibers and a process of making a preform densified.
Generally, the preforms are made by laminating carbon fiber webs in sheet form or carbon fiber webs in sheet form to a predetermined thickness, and then needle punching the laminated sheets in a laminated direction. The sheet-like carbon fiber fabric may be a shape in which the carbon fibers are formed in one direction, and the carbon fibers may be in a shape in which the carbon fibers are interwoven with each other. The sheet-like carbon fiber web is made of non-woven fabric of carbon fibers having a length of about 7 to 8 cm. The laminated sheets may be laminated with a plurality of sheet-like carbon fiber fabrics or may be laminated together with sheet-shaped carbon fiber webs and sheet-shaped carbon fiber webs.
In the needle punching process, the needle punch is reciprocated in the vertical direction (lamination direction) of the sheet stacked sheets, and the needles provided in the needle punches are arranged in the laminated direction (thickness direction of the sheet) do. Since the fibers located on the sheet are arranged in the stacking direction, the sheet and the sheet are entangled with each other to bind in the stacking direction, thereby increasing the binding force in the stacking direction of the stacked sheets.
Korean Patent Publication No. 2004-0060017 (published on June 7, 2004) (hereinafter referred to as prior art) discloses a preform manufacturing method using needle punching. Prior art discloses a technique of punching a preform while moving a needle punch having a guide flat plate in a vertical direction.
However, since the needle punching process as described above can increase the binding force of the preform in the stacking direction, since the carbon fibers located on the upper side of the preform are arranged downward, the density of the lower portion of the preform is high, The density of the entire preform is not uniform. On the other hand, when the density of the needle punching is decreased to reduce the density difference of the preforms, the binding force between the sheets of the preforms becomes low.
Also, during the process of densifying the preform, the high temperature carbonization (heat treatment) process is performed, in which the weight and volume are reduced. Particularly, there is a disadvantage in that the weight and volume of the low-density portion of the preform are largely reduced and the dimensions and shape of the product are unbalanced.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a preform needle punching method and apparatus which not only increases the binding force of a preform in a sheet stacking direction but also makes the density of a preform uniform.

The up-and-down driving unit includes a rotating motor provided in the base frame, a ball screw assembly connected to the motor shaft of the rotating motor and the needle punching member and moving the needle punching member up and down according to normal and reverse rotation of the rotating motor .
The up-and-down driving unit includes a rotating motor provided in the base frame, a pinion coupled to a motor shaft of the rotating motor, a pinion vertically coupled to the needle punching member and engaged with the pinion, And a rack member for moving the rack member.
The needle punching member is moved up and down along a guide unit. The guide unit includes guide rods provided on both sides of the base frame, and guide pegs provided on both sides of the needle punching member, It is preferable to include sliding blocks to be combined.
The reverse unit includes a base plate positioned next to the conveyor assembly, a plate drive unit moving the base plate up and down, a sliding member movably coupled to the base plate in a horizontal direction, A linear driving unit provided in the rotating unit and generating a linear driving force; and a linear driving unit which is linearly reciprocating in accordance with the operation of the linear driving unit, It is preferable to include forks for picking and placing.
Further, in order to accomplish the object of the present invention, there is provided a sheet punching method including: a forward punching step of needle punching a top surface of a sheet stack in a downward direction; Reversing the sheet stacked body; And a reverse punching step of needle punching the lower surface of the sheet stack body in the upper surface direction.
Wherein the forward punching step includes the steps of dividing the upper surface of the sheet stack into a plurality of continuous areas and sequentially needle-punching the divided areas, and the backward punching step includes dividing the lower surface of the sheet stack into a plurality of continuous areas The divided regions are sequentially needle-punched, and the sizes of the upper and lower partition regions of the sheet stack are equal to each other and overlap each other by half.
In the present invention, a sheet laminate in which carbon fiber-based sheets are laminated is needle-punched in a direction from the upper surface (one surface) to the lower surface (the other surface), and the ear-sheet laminate is turned upside- (One side), the fiber density is not concentrated on one side of the sheet stack body, the fiber density becomes uniform over the entire sheet stack body, and the binding force in the stacking direction of the sheet stack body becomes large.
Further, in the present invention, when the area of the needles of the needle punching member is smaller than the area of the sheet stack, the upper and lower surfaces of the sheet stack may be divided into a plurality of areas Regions), and when the needle punching is performed in the downward direction from the upper surface, the divided regions of the upper surface are successively punched and the divided regions of the lower surface when the needle punching is performed in the upper surface direction are sequentially punched, Direction fibers are distributed at regular intervals, so that the fiber density in the stacking direction of the sheet stacked body becomes uniform.
