Definitions
- the invention relates to the art of fabricating irregularly shaped preforms of parts from a multiple thickness layup of fiber-reinforced plastic composite material.
- filler segments or parts made from preforms of the kind noted above are utilized. These filler segments or parts typically have irregular shapes to conform them to the shape of corresponding spaces in the rotor blade which are to be filled by the filler segments or parts.
- a preform is understood in the art to be an uncured part, i.e., it is a part formed from a layup to a pre ⁇ determined shape which is yet to be cured into a final structural part.
- the preform may be cured separately, in assembly with the rotor blade, or in any subassembly, of the rotor blade, such as the fillers cured with the spar subassembly.
- a layup is understood in the art to be an aggregate of individual tape strips (laminates) , the tape strips comprising fiber reinforced plastic material.
- the fibers or filaments are preferably unidirectional for the filler preforms made according to the present inven ⁇ tion.
- An irregular shaped preform is understood in the art to be one in which at least one edge of a preform transverse cross-section varies along its length with respect to a reference co-ordinate set of axes.
- a rectangular or square cross-section does not include an edge (any of the four sides) which varies along its length relative to a two-dimensional co-ordinate set of axes, whereas a triangular cross-section does.
- This invention employs cold compacting or coining of the layup to form the preform.
- the cold compacting or coining process involves the application of pressure at essentially room temperature to the layup to deform it to achieve a preform of a desired shape.
- a tool is used for this purpose and includes a male and female portion, hereinafter referred to as the mold.
- the uncured layup is fully enclosed within the mold and fits the mold cavity with substantial precision.
- the layup is then cold compacted or coined by the application of pres ⁇ sure to the layup in the mold.
- the applied pressure supplies the force needed to produce the adherence of the laminates so that the preform will retain its shape
- con ⁇ siderable care is taken to force air from between the lamina so that the layup will fit within the mold cavity.
- frequent rolling of the tacky lamina after each ply is laid on the preceding ply is desirable in order to expel the air, because if an excessive amount of air remains with the layup its volume may exceed the capacity of the mold to accept its bulk.
- the mold is sized to accommodate some degree of air entrapment, if this is overdone, the mold may be too large compared to the reduced size the composite attains - during the cold compaction or coining process.
- the air also presents a problem during the subsequent cure cycle of the preform with the composite blade.
- the presence of entrapped air in unacceptably large quantities within the layup will produce a cured part whose resin matrix is porous, frothy and aerated in appearance and in fact. Expelling the air, therefore, also contributes to the high time factor.
- a related object of the present invention is to provide a method in accordance with the previously stated object where the preform is formed by cold com ⁇ pacting or coining a layup in a mold which defines the desired final shape of the preform.
- a further related and more specific object of the present invention is to provide a method in accord ⁇ ance with the previously stated objects where the layup for the preform has a uniform transverse cross-section, i.e. , a cross-section in which the edges do not vary with respect to a reference co-ordinate set of axes.
- the cross-section can be rectangular.
- a further object of the present invention related more specifically to the last stated object is to provide a method of making a layup which avoids the need to cut the multiple lamina of the aggregate forming the layup to differing shapes.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a method in accordance with the previously stated objects in which the preform is substantially free of entrapped air within the resin matrix.
- the invention achieves these objects as a method according to which a layup is first produced by an aggregate of laminates of uncured fiber reinforced resin composite material, and subsequently transformed by cold compacting or coining in a tool to a preform of the desired shape.
- the tool is such that it defines the final desired shape of the preform and the method according to one aspect is further defined such that the layup is given the simplest uniform transverse cross-sectional shape, for example, rectangular, which shape is then transformed by the tool, by the cold com ⁇ pacting or coining procedure, to the desired shape, which is irregular as this term is understood from the above definition.
- the bulk factor of the layup is not eliminated, i.e., corresponding cross-sectional areas are substantially identical. For example, if the cross-sectional area of one end of the intended preform is one square inch, the corresponding cross-sectional area of the same end of the layup should also be substantially one square inch.
- the sole figure is an isometric view illustrating the two parts of the mold, a layup placed in the mold and the preform formed from the layup by cold compacting or coining in the mold.
- layup 10 formed of uncured laminates 12 of fiber-reinforced composite material is shown having a rectangular cross-section which uniformly varies along its length, but is always rectangular.
- each laminate has a pre ⁇ determined length (L,, L 2 , L_, etc.) which varies from the lengths of other laminates.
- the width (w) of each laminate is equal regardless of the respective lengths of the laminates, and is preferably the standard width of the laminate (tape) as it is supplied by the manu ⁇ facturer to the fabricator.
- OMPI layup necessarily varies longitudinally since the lamina have varying lengths.
- the direction in which the reinforcing strands of fiber run is preferably unidirectional, although it is conceivable that they may vary among the laminates.
- the preform to be formed from the layup 10, identified as reference number 14, has a predetermined irregular shape such as that shown at plane A_ where its cross-section has sloping edges E, and E ⁇ and a nonplanar arcuate edge E,.
- the thickness of the preform 14 varies along its length as shown. To reproduce the.preform 14 from the layup 10, it is necessary that the bulk factor of the two be substantially identical, i.e., corresponding cross-sectional areas must be substantially identical.
- the cross-sectional areas of the layup 10 and preform 14 at X-Y planes A_ A ⁇ and B_ B must be substantially identical. Knowing the areas A_ and B and given a known width (w) of the laminates of the layup 10, it becomes necessary to vary the thickness (t) of the layup 10 along its length in order to achieve the correspondence needed.
- the preform 14 attains its final shape as a result of reform ⁇ ing the layup 10 in a tool by coining.
- the tool is shown as a mold having a male and female portion.
- a female mold portion 16 having a cavity 18 formed to the desired shape of the preform 14 is adapted to receive a male mold portion 20 that closes the mold cavity at the top.
- the ends of the female mold portion 16 are not shown in order to present the mold contour clearly, but would, if included, appear as plates in the X-Y plane that operate to close the longitudinal ends of the cavity.
- the male mold portion 20 has a plunger portion 34 and lateral flanges 22, 24 that can seat on the upper surfaces 26, 28 of the female mold portion 16.
- OMPI Pins 30, fixed to female mold portion 16 and extending upwardly from surfaces 26, 28 are received in the holes 32 formed at the four corners of the male mold portion 20 through flanges 22, 24. The pins when fitted within the holes fix the position of the mold portions 16, 20 one with respect to the other.
- the layup 10 is placed in the cavity 18 of the female mold portion 16 and the mold portion 16, 20 are placed preferably in a press (not shown) which moves the male mold portion 20 relative to the female mold portion 16 such that the plunger portion 34 engages the layup 10 as it moves toward the cavity 18.
- the cavity 18 has sides 18' and 18' ' while the plunger portion 34 has an arcuate side 18' * *.
- the edges E. , E_ and E- are formed by engagement of the layup 10 " with the sides 18 ' , 18 ' ' and 18 • * • .
- the layup 10 may be formed by hand by cutting the lamina of individual strips of composite material tape to the lengths indicated and the layup assembled, or with automatic dispensing equipment such as those dis ⁇ closed in U.S. Patents 3,775,219; 4,234,374; and 4,259,144, that cut the composite material tape to the required lengths and assembles the layup automatically.
- a layup in the block form as shown in the figure is only produced when high volume fabrication procedures apply. Then, the layup is fabricated with the use of the automatic layup equipment, which is pro- grammed to dispense tape of the required width, cut to the exact lengths and positioned lengthwise as required to form the layup.
- Any irregularly shaped preform can be manufactured in accordance with the present invention.
- the exact shape must be known and its bulk factor established. With this information, a properly sized layup can be made, placed in the mold tool and cold compacted or coined to form the preform.
