Definitions
- This invention relates to a process for making swaged lighting holes in planar areas of preimpregnated composite parts, and particularly in parts made by means of automatic laying machines.
- swaged lighting holes in structural parts is common in order to achieve an increase of stiffness without increasing the weight and with a minimum cost.
- the processes for making swaged lighting holes on sheet metal are common in industry and achieve the desired deformation of the sheet by means of its plastic deformation.
- This invention proposes a new process for achieving swaged lighting holes in planar or quasi-planar areas of laminated parts of preimpregnated composite that is particularly applicable to parts made using preimpregnated tape the laminate of which is carried out with an automatic laying machine.
- the process comprises the following steps:
- the process may additionally include the application of heat to the part while carrying out the process to achieve a temperature in the resin facilitating the slippage of the fibers of the material and a final cooling step if its handling is required immediately after making the swaged lighting hole.
- Figure 1 shows the starting part in the process according to this invention.
- Figure 2 shows the part of Figure 1 after making two swaged lighting holes following the process object of this invention.
- Figure 3 shows a part in which the flanges are formed first and after that the swaged lighting holes are made following the process object of this invention.
- Figure 4 shows a schematic view of the part and of devices used to carry out the swaged lighting hole process according to this invention upon beginning the process.
- Figure 5 shows a schematic view of the part and of said devices upon concluding the process.
- Figures 2 and 3 of a recess of an area 3 of the part 5 surrounding the opening 7, with an S-shaped contour, is described below.
- the swaged lighting hole may have another shape.
- the swaged lighting holes 3 are made in a planar or quasi-planar area of the part 5, but the latter may have a non-planar shape like the part 5 shown in
- Figure 3 which corresponds to a rib with a C-shaped section, in which the flanges 6 have been formed prior to making the swaging according to this invention.
- the part 5 is covered with a thin plastic film (not represented) to prevent it from adhering to the tooling of the swaged lighting hole process and is placed, suitably centering it, on a female tooling 11 the top side of which reproduces the shape that the part must be given during the swaging process, particularly including the cavity 13 with the desired shape for the swaged lighting hole 1.
- a thin plastic film not represented
- a male tooling 17 and a caul plate 19 are arranged on the part 5.
- This caul plate 19 must cover the entire area affected by the movement that the swaging process will cause on the fibers of the composite, except in the very swaged lighting hole areas.
- the part 5 is therefore enclosed between the female tooling 11 and the caul plate 19, except on area 3.
- the male tooling 17 is responsible for forming the part 5 with the shape of the female tooling 11 , and particularly forming its area 3 with the shape of the cavity 13.
- the male tooling 17 must initially be lifted above the part 5, which is achieved by supporting it on the female tooling 11 by means of springs 15.
- the male tooling 17 may have the final shape of the swaged lighting hole 1 on its side that is applied on the part 5 or, as is shown in Figures 4 and 5, with the part 21 coming into contact with the part 5 made of a deformable material such that it may begin contact with the part in the area 23 where the swaged lighting hole begins and progressively become deformed until exerting pressure uniformly on the area 3 of the part 5 against the cavity 13 of the female tooling 11.
- the swaged lighting hole process is carried out in the following steps:
