- a component force in the width direction (X direction) is applied to the strand.
- the component forces in the + X direction and the -X direction in FIG. Ideally, the balance between the two must be well balanced. If the + X direction is extremely large, the entire strand is biased in the + X direction, and the strands tend not to be uniformly and sufficiently widened.
- the widening jig it is preferable to run the strand itself at the center of the widening jig in order to apply a balanced force to the strand in both the + X and -X directions.

- the strand transfer distance L between the concavo-convex jig and the strand widening jig is small, and the distance L is 20 times or less the strand width W in order to increase the component force in the X direction of the strand take-up tension. It is more preferable. Furthermore, L is preferably 5 times or less of W, and particularly preferably 2 times or less.

It is. There is an effect as a guide mechanism in which strands made of reinforcing fibers are divided in advance by unevenness to stabilize the widening and make the yarn path of the strands constant.
- the reinforcing fiber when the reinforcing fiber is widened, it is necessary to keep the thickness of the strands uniform in the width direction of the strands, and the use of the uneven jig as in the present invention has been avoided.

- the height difference due to the unevenness is preferably about 0.01 to 10 times the strand thickness.
- the height difference of the unevenness is smaller than the thickness of the strand, it is possible to suppress local variation in the thickness in the width direction of the strand as well as to stabilize the yarn path.

- the holding angle is preferably in the range of 1 to 350 °, more preferably in the range of 30 to 180 °. This holding angle can be easily adjusted by changing the distance and height between the jigs.
- the convex portion has a larger diameter as it is closer to the center of the jig, and is processed into a so-called drum shape (more specifically, a Japanese drum shape).
- the diameter of the convex jig which is a widening jig having a convex part, is different between the center part and the end part. Fibers tend to travel on routes that shorten the path length on the yarn path. Accordingly, since the fiber traveling in the central portion having a large diameter in the convex jig tends to have a long path length, the fiber travels along a route in which the path length is shortened by spreading in the width direction, and the strand is widened.
- widening means that the fiber travels along a route having an angle with respect to the traveling direction of the strand. Therefore, if this angle is too large, the path length becomes longer. Therefore, the fiber travels on the route with the shortest path length in which both are balanced.
- the effective width of the widening jig it is possible to adjust the width of the reinforcing fiber strand after the widening. Further, by using a jig such as a flat bar, a pin, or a roll that defines the effective width, it is possible to obtain a reinforced fiber strand with more stable quality.

- stainless steel is subjected to hard chrome plating.
- a highly rigid fiber such as carbon fiber is used, it is particularly preferable in order to improve the wear resistance of the jig caused by abrasion.
- the widening jig may be more suitably used by applying vibration such as ultrasonic vibration or heating / cooling.
- the fiber running in the center has a long path length, and thus the strand after widening tends to be thin at the center. Therefore, by reducing the strand transfer distance L between the strand width uneven jig and the strand widening jig, it is possible to prevent the fibers in the center from escaping excessively in the width direction, and to achieve a uniform and uniform thickness and width. Widened strands are obtained. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 8, it is particularly effective to substantially integrate the uneven jig and the widening jig in the strand width direction.

- Such a pre-divided reinforcing fiber bundle is obtained by immersing the resin in a widened state, consolidating the resin after converging, and pellets obtained by cutting and reinforcing fibers cut in the widened state. It is particularly preferably used for a random mat produced by dispersing. This is because in these cases, it is particularly important to obtain a stable width and thickness of the entire strand during the process.

拡幅治具の凸部曲率の半径Rを実施例1の100mmから300mmに変更した以外は、実施例1と同様に処理を行った。拡幅後の張力は平均1.6kgf(15.7N)であり、実施例1よりも拡幅後のストランド幅の点でやや劣るものの十分な品位の補強繊維ストランドが得られた。拡幅後のストランド幅は16mmであった。
用いた補強繊維のサイジング剤をポリアミド樹脂系からウレタン系に変更し、実施例4と同じく拡幅治具の凸部曲率の半径Rが300mmのものを用いた以外は、実施例1と同様に処理を行った。拡幅後の張力は平均1.6kgf(15.7N)であり、均一に繊維が分散され、拡幅後のストランド幅は16mmから20mmに拡大し、安定した補強繊維ストランドであった。
用いた補強繊維のフィラメント数を24000本(24K)から12000本(12K)に変更し、実施例4と同じく拡幅治具の凸部曲率の半径Rが300mmのものを用いた以外は、実施例1と同様に処理を行った。拡幅後の張力は平均1.5kgf(14.7N)であり、均一に繊維が分散され、拡幅後のストランド幅は20mmの安定した補強繊維ストランドであった。
凹凸治具を使用しなかった以外は実施例1と同様に処理を行った。拡幅後の張力は平均1.6kgf(15.7N)に若干高まっただけであったが、糸道が不安定で、収束治具通過後の原糸が、拡幅ピンの中央を走行せず、安定した拡幅効果を得られなかった。糸道がズレる為に目的のストランド幅を得られなかった。
凹凸治具の代わりに、ハードクロムメッキ処理を施したステンレス鋼製の直径Φが20mmの円筒形のフラットバーを使用した以外は実施例1と同様に処理を行った。拡幅後の張力は平均1.7kgf(16.7N)に高まり、また、糸道が不安定で、収束治具通過後の原糸が、拡幅ピンの中央を走行せず、安定した拡幅効果を得られなかった。得られたストランドのストランド幅は、13mmと凹凸治具を使用した時と比べ狭く、十分な拡幅効果を得られなかった。
凹凸治具の凸部の頂点間隔を実施例1の1mmから6mmに変更した以外は、実施例1と同様に処理を行った。拡幅後の張力は平均1.3kgf(12.7N)であり、実施例1よりも拡幅後のストランド幅の点でやや劣るものの十分な品位の補強繊維ストランドが得られた。拡幅後のストランド幅は16mmであった。
凹凸治具の凸部の高さを実施例1の0.6mmから1.8mmに変更した以外は、実施例1と同様に処理を行った。拡幅後の張力は平均1.7kgf(16.7N)であり、実施例1よりも拡幅後のストランド幅の点でやや劣るものの十分な品位の補強繊維ストランドが得られた。拡幅後のストランド幅は15mmであった。
実施例1と同様に、補強繊維ストランドを、収束治具、凹凸治具、拡幅治具の順に通過させ、その後引き続きガイド機構として、ハードクロムメッキ処理を施したステンレス鋼製の直径Φが20mmの円筒形のフラットバーにより処理を行った(なお、全ての治具は一直線に配置されていた)。フラットバー通過直後の張力は平均1.7kgf(16.7N)であり、拡幅後のストランド幅は20mmの安定した補強繊維ストランドが得られた。
用いた補強繊維のサイジング剤の付着量を1wt%から5wt%に変更した以外は、実施例1と同様に処理を行った。拡幅後の張力は平均1.6kgf(15.7N)であり、均一に繊維が分散され、拡幅後のストランド幅が16mmの安定した補強繊維ストランドが得られた。
収束治具、凹凸治具、拡幅治具の直径Φを90mmに変更した以外は実施例1と同様に処理を行った。なお、収束治具、凹凸治具、拡幅治具の中心部は一直線に配置されており、各ピンの中心距離は100mm、ピンのストランドの抱き角は約140°であり、Lの値は35mmであった。拡幅後の張力は平均2.0kgf(19.6N)であり、均一に繊維が分散され、拡幅後のストランド幅は22mmの安定した補強繊維ストランドであった。
収束治具、凹凸治具、拡幅治具、それぞれの側面から棒ヒーター(Φ12mm)を挿入し、各治具の温度を120℃とした以外は実施例1と同様に処理を行った。拡幅後の張力は平均1.8kgf(17.6N)であり、均一に繊維が分散され、拡幅後のストランド幅は21mmの安定した補強繊維ストランドであった。
収束治具、凹凸治具、拡幅治具、それぞれの側面から棒ヒーター(Φ12mm)を挿入し、各治具の温度を120℃とした以外は実施例3と同様に処理を行った。なお、第2の凹凸治具には棒ヒーターを使用していない。拡幅後の張力は平均1.8kgf(17.6N)であり、均一に繊維が分散され、拡幅後のストランド幅は21mmの安定した補強繊維ストランドであった。
収束治具、凹凸治具、拡幅治具および第2の凹凸治具の直径Φを90mmに変更し、さらに、各ピンの中心距離を200mmとすることで、Lの値を180mmに変更した以外は実施例13と同様に処理を行った。なお、収束治具、凹凸治具、拡幅治具の中心部は一直線に配置されており、ピンのストランドの抱き角は50°であった。拡幅処理直後の張力は平均1.5kgf(14.7N)であり、均一に繊維が分繊され、拡幅後のストランド幅は16mmであり、2時間連続運転したが、時間が経過しても拡幅後のストランド幅に変化は見られなかった。
実施例14において用いた、凹凸治具及び拡幅治具をそれぞれ半割りにして、その断面を合わせることで実質的に凹凸治具と拡幅治具を図8のように一体化させたものを用意した。そして上記の一体化治具と、各治具(収束治具及び第2の凹凸治具)間の中心距離をそれぞれ110mm(治具へのストランドの抱き角は約110°)としたこと以外は、実施例14と同様に処理を行った。すなわち、この実施例15における凹凸治具-拡幅治具間の渡し距離Lは0mmであった。拡幅処理直後の張力は平均1.6kgf(15.7N)であり、繊維が均一に分繊され、拡幅後のストランド幅は20mmであった。2時間連続運転したところ、ストランドの拡幅治具への入射角度はほぼゼロであり、時間が経過しても拡幅後のストランド幅に変化は見られなかった。
収束治具、凹凸治具、拡幅治具および第2の凹凸治具の中心距離を250mmとすることで、Lの値を240mm(繊維ストランド幅の24倍)に変更した以外は実施例14と同様に処理を行った。なお、収束治具、凹凸治具、拡幅治具の中心部は一直線に配置されており、ピンのストランドの抱き角は45°であった。全体的に15mm程度まで拡幅された補強繊維拡幅ストランドを得た。拡幅処理直後の張力は平均1.6kgf(15.7N)であり、拡幅治具への入射角度が多少不安定ではあったが、拡幅後のストランド幅が15mmの補強繊維ストランドを得ることができた。
本出願は、2011年12月22日出願の日本特許出願(特願2011-281507)に基づくものであり、その内容はここに参照として取り込まれる。
