Definitions
- the invention relates to a method of local reinforcement of a composite panel with fibrous reinforcement and a panel obtained by such a method. It finds its application mainly, but not exclusively, in the aviation industry for the realization of structural panels having areas requiring such a local reinforcement, whether for increased requirements in strength or rigidity.
- the optimization of the working structures requires to adapt the local section of said structures to the intensity of the flow of forces that passes through them.
- a metal structure constituting in particular a fuselage panel, a rib or a spar in the structure of an aircraft
- such adaptations are obtained by removal of material, so as to provide thicker areas therein. and more rigid able to transmit higher force flows in areas where higher rigidity and / or mechanical strength are required.
- geometric stress concentrations are created, related to the discontinuity of rigidity between the thickest zones and the finest zones. These geometric discontinuities are therefore privileged sites for the initiation of fatigue cracks. This phenomenon is taken into account by a coefficient of concentration of stress, or Kt, which coefficient is even higher than the variation of section is carried out over a short distance.
- WO 01 58680 discloses a structural panel comprising reinforcing patches, both the panel and the patch consisting of a fibrous reinforcement composite in a thermosetting resin.
- a skin of a thickness e- ⁇ , consisting of a stack of fibrous folds in a matrix consisting of a polymer thermoplastic;
- a localized reinforcement, or patch bonded to the surface of said skin and rising from a thickness e 2 in a direction locally normal to the skin, consisting of a stack of fibrous folds in a matrix consisting of a thermoplastic polymer ;
- thermoplastic constitution of the matrix makes it possible, on the one hand, to obtain a binding of the patch by welding, which bond has a much lower risk of presence of cohesion defects and that on the other hand, the absence of crosslinking allowing deformations to break significantly greater for thermoplastics than for thermosets and a high fatigue resistance of these polymers can at least partially explain this result.
- panel designates a flat or shaped shell structure whose thickness is less than 1/1000 of the smallest of its surface dimensions. Localized reinforcement or patch extends over a surface less than or equal to one quarter of the surface of said panel.
- the invention also relates to a method for producing such a panel, which method comprises the steps of:
- thermoplastic polymer vs. make a skin by draping fibrous folds pre-impregnated with a thermoplastic polymer
- the skin is thus brought into contact with the patches in the unconsolidated state, or it may be draped on a tool in which one or more patches are already placed, or, alternatively, the skin may be pre-treated. consolidated prior to its assembly with the patches.
- the method which is the subject of the invention makes it possible to obtain a perfect geometrical correspondence between the patch and the skin even when said skin is of complex shape.
- the invention can be implemented according to the advantageous embodiments, described below, which can be considered individually or in any technically operative combination.
- the polymer constituting the matrix of the skin and the polymer constituting the matrix of the patch are chosen from an assembly comprising polyetheretherketone (PEEK), phenylene polysulfides (PPS), polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) and polyetherimide (PEI).
- PEEK polyetheretherketone
- PPS phenylene polysulfides
- PEKK polyetherketoneketone
- PEI polyetherimide
- the panel which is the subject of the invention comprises patches on the two opposite faces of the skin. Said patches being attached to the skin and not draped with it, the panel having this characteristic can be co-consolidated with said patches in a single operation and can therefore be produced according to a particularly productive method.
- the method which is the subject of the invention comprises, after step d), a step consisting of: boy Wut. draw the patch and skin together
- This vacuum draw ensures both the cohesion of the assembly during the co-consolidation cycle but also to apply the pressure necessary for the joint conformation of the patch and the skin.
- the method which is the subject of the invention comprises, between steps c) and d) a step consisting of:
- This implementation method is particularly economical and flexible since it allows, according to a first embodiment, to independently form the patches and skins and assemble them on demand.
- These two elements can advantageously be made from pre-consolidated plates, easy to handle and with no expiry date, so that it is possible to easily integrate this process in a production process drawn or "just in time” .
- the final co-consolidation ensures a very strong cohesion of the patch and the skin.
- the method which is the subject of the invention comprises between steps e) and f) a step consisting of:
- This step is preferentially applicable when the skin is brought into contact with the patch while it is in the consolidated state.
- This joint conformation authorized by the flexibility of the matrix of the patch and the skin brought to a sufficient temperature, allows a perfect geometrical correspondence of the skin and the patch.
- the embodiments of the method which is the subject of the invention may be combined to obtain a panel comprising reinforcing patches on the two opposite faces of the skin.
- the invention also relates to a tool for implementing the method that is the subject of the invention, characterized in that it comprises a conformation plate, or "flat water", able to apply the pressure on the patch and on the skin.
- a conformation plate or "flat water”
- Said flat cauld allows both to uniformly apply the conformation pressure on the assembly but also to calibrate the thickness of the patch and skin assembly and thus to obtain optimal compaction, free of defects, of the assembly. , guaranteeing an effective transfer of efforts between the folds of the panel thus obtained, when subjected to its service demands.

- ei ⁇ e 2 or e 2 ⁇ e By "laminate” it is meant that both the skin (101) and the patch (102) consist of a stack of plies comprising fibers, preferably but not exclusively, continuous fibers extending parallel to the faces of the skin. skin, the orientation of said fibers being defined within each fold.
- said fibers consist of carbon, glass or aramid.
- the cohesion of the folds is achieved by a matrix consisting of a thermoplastic polymer.
- the skin matrix (101) and the matrix of the patch (102) consist of the same thermoplastic polymer selected from a group comprising polyetheretherketone, or PEEK, phenylene polysulfide, or PPS, polyetherketoneketone or PEKK and polyetherimide or PEI.
- the method which is the subject of the invention can be used for the production of composite parts made up of matrices and less efficient fibers, in particular for the realization of interior fittings of aircraft.
- the panel (100) is here shown planar for the sake of convenience of representation, however the invention applies mutatis mutandis to panels having a curvature single or double, constant or evolutive, whose radius of curvature, in order of magnitude , is greater than 500 times the thickness.
- the panel object of the invention may also have more tormented shapes, with fallen edges or breaks, provided that these surface accidents are outside areas reinforced by the patch (102).
- the geometrical connection between the face of the skin (101) and the top of the patch (102) is formed by a slope p whose value is typically between 0.5 and 1.
- the contour (212) of the patch (202) is made by trimming the said patch in the consolidated state, before it is attached by welding or co-consolidation on the skin.
- This trimming is carried out by any means known to those skilled in the art, especially by high-pressure abrasive water jet or cutting tool.
- the consolidated patches (1 02) are placed in cavities of a tool (301).
- a stack (301) of pre-impregnated folds is placed on the tool (31 0) in contact with the patches (1 02).
- a conformation plate (320) is placed on this stack (301), and the volume between the tool (31 0) and the confirmation plate (320) is sealed to gases by a vacuum bag (330).
- the tool (310) comprises a circuit (31 5) for drawing this volume to a vacuum.
- the assembly may be placed in an oven or the tool may have an autonomous heating system which may be produced by the circulation of a fluid, by electrical resistances, any heating mode known to the heating system. skilled person.
- the application of a vacuum by the circuit (31 5) vacuum draw of the tool (31 0) produces the compaction of the stack (301) of the folds by the shaping plate (320).
- Said conformation plate (320) abuts on calibration wedges (341, 342).
- the assembly is heated to a temperature at least equal to the melting temperature of the polymer constituting the matrix of the skin (1 01) and the patch (102) while the vacuum draft is maintained.
- the shaping plate (320) maintains the thickness of the skin at its theoretical value independently of the expansion of said polymer brought to its melting temperature.
- the assembly is cooled under pressure, said pressure being maintained by vacuum, at least until the solidification of the assembly.
- the patches are perfectly integrated with the skin.
- FIG. 4 according to another example of implementation of the method that is the subject of the invention, the skin (101) is placed on the tooling (41 0) in the pre-consolidated state, just like the patches (1 02) placed, also in the pre-consolidated state, directly on the skin (1 01).
- a conformation plate (420) incorporating the contour of the patches is placed on the assembly, and, as previously ( Figure 3), the space between the tool (410) and the shaping plate (420) and sealed by a vacuum bag (430).
- the assembly is brought to the melting temperature of the matrix of the skin (101) and patches (102), under the pressure of the conformation plate (420), pressure exerted by the vacuum draw of the space between the tool (410) and the empty bag (430).
- the patches (102) are integrated into the skin.
- a first step (510) is to obtain or manufacture a plate (512) or a series of consolidated laminated plates comprising fibrous reinforcing plies in a thermoplastic polymer matrix.
- These consolidated plates (512) are, during a trimming step (520), machined by any means known to those skilled in the art so as to give them their contour and to chamfer the edges of this contour in order to form a patch (522).
- a skin (531) is constituted in a draping step (530). This skin (531) is assembled with the patch (522) during a co-consolidation step (540).
- the step (530) of draping and consolidation of the skin (531) is performed prior to the step (540) of assembly and co-consolidation.
- the skin (531) is draped over the consolidated patch (522), and the assembly is co-consolidated so that said steps (530, 540) can proceed sequentially or simultaneously.
- a finishing step (550) consists of finishing the assembly, particularly at trimming of the skin (531).
- the skin and patch assembly thus completed can undergo a new cycle (560) of co-consolidation with another patch such as to create, for example, a reinforcement on the other face of the skin (531). ).
