Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a joint and an aircraft structure.
  • CFRP Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced plastic
  • the member inserted into the joint is bonded by an adhesive, and the joint and the base material are also bonded by the adhesive. Thereby, a member is joined to a base material.
  • the plate material to be joined to the base material must be positioned with high accuracy. That is, when the joint is previously provided on the base material, the plate material needs to be positioned with high accuracy with respect to the joint.
  • Patent Document 1 a positioning pin (projection) is provided on the side surface of the plate material, a notch in which the pin is fitted is provided on the side surface of the joint, and the plate material is inserted so that the pin of the plate material fits in the notch of the joint.
  • a positioning pin projection
  • a notch in which the pin is fitted is provided on the side surface of the joint, and the plate material is inserted so that the pin of the plate material fits in the notch of the joint.
  • the bonding surface between the joint and the base material is a load (surface that pulls the member with respect to the surface of the base material to which the joint is joined).
  • a load surface that pulls the member with respect to the surface of the base material to which the joint is joined.
  • the bonding surface between the member and the base material is flat. However, if the bonding surface is flat, it may not have sufficient strength for the out-of-plane load.
  • the present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a joint and an aircraft structure that can further increase the strength of the joint surface between the joint and the base material.
  • the joint and aircraft structure of the present invention employ the following means.
  • the joint according to the first aspect of the present invention is a joint for joining a member to a base material, and an inclined portion that is inclined with respect to a plane orthogonal to a direction in which a tensile load is applied to the member is the base material.
  • the inclined portion is embedded in the base material and bonded to the base material.
  • the joint according to this configuration is to join a member to a base material.
  • an inclined portion is formed on the bonding surface with the base material.
  • the inclined portion is inclined with respect to a plane orthogonal to a direction in which a tensile load on the member is applied. In other words, the inclined portion is inclined toward the base material.
  • the bonding surface of the base material with the joint is formed with a dug portion corresponding to the shape of the inclined portion so that the inclined portion of the joint is embedded. As a result, the inclined portion of the joint is embedded in the base material and bonded to the base material.
  • the adhesive strength there is an out-of-plane strength that is a strength in a direction of pulling the member (out-of-plane direction). That is, the out-of-plane strength is a strength against a tensile load (out-of-plane direction load) applied to the member.
  • the adhesive strength is classified into an in-plane strength that is a strength in a shearing direction (in-plane direction) with respect to the bonding surface.
  • the out-of-plane strength and the in-plane strength are orthogonal.
  • the theoretical adhesive strength against the out-of-plane direction load is the out-of-plane direction strength.
  • the in-plane strength has a strength component in the out-of-plane direction.
  • the theoretical adhesive strength with respect to the out-of-plane direction load is a strength obtained by adding the sine component of the in-plane adhesive strength to the out-of-plane adhesive strength.
  • the bonding strength is stronger than when the bonding surface is flat.
  • the peak stress at the end of the bonded surface when subjected to an out-of-plane load is reduced as compared to the case where the inclined portion is not formed. Therefore, this configuration can further increase the strength of the bonding surface between the joint and the base material.
  • the surface opposite to the adhesive surface is inclined toward the end so that the thickness is thinner than the central portion.
  • the difference in rigidity between the joint and the base material is small compared to when the opposite surface is not inclined with respect to the adhesive surface, that is, when the end of the joint is perpendicular to the base material, for example.
  • strength of the edge part of a joint falls because an opposite surface inclines with respect to an adhesion surface.
  • the inclined portion is formed on the bonding surface, the peak stress at the end of the joint when subjected to an out-of-plane load is reduced, so that damage to the end of the joint is suppressed.
  • the inclined portion is formed by a plurality of inclined surfaces.
  • the bonding strength of the bonding surface can be made uniform.
  • the inclined portion is formed of a plurality of inclined surfaces having different angles with respect to the base material.
  • the strength of the adhesive surface can be adjusted by varying the angle according to the load expected to be applied to the joint.
  • the inclined portion is formed by one inclined surface.
  • the strength of the bonding surface between the joint and the base material can be increased with a simple configuration.
  • An aircraft structure includes the above-described joint, and a base material in which a dug portion corresponding to the shape of the inclined portion is formed so that the inclined portion of the joint is embedded. And the joint is embedded in the base material and bonded by adhesion.

Description

継手及び航空機構造
 本発明は、継手及び航空機構造に関するものである。
 航空機の分野において、例えば炭素繊維強化プラスチック(Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced
Plastic:CFRP)等の複合材の適用範囲が一次構造へ拡大している。そして、複合材が軽量であるというメリットを生かして、構造の軽量化を達成するためにはファスナを用いない継手が好ましい。
 継手に差し込まれた部材は接着剤によって接着され、継手と母材も接着剤によって接着される。これにより、部材は、母材に接合される。
 そして、構造の組み立てにおいて、母材に接合される板材は高精度に位置決めされなければならない。すなわち、継手が予め母材に設けられている場合は、継手に対して板材が高精度に位置決めされる必要がある。
 特許文献1では、板材の側面に位置決め用のピン(突起物)を設け、継手の側面にこのピンが嵌め合わされる切欠きを設け、板材のピンが継手の切欠きに嵌るように板材を差し込むことで、位置決めを行うことが開示されている。
米国特許第8403586号明細書
 特許文献1に開示されている構造では、位置決めを行うことができるが、継手と母材との接着面は、継手が接合される母材の面に対して部材を引っ張る方向に働く荷重(面外方向荷重)に十分な強度を有していなければならない。
 部材と母材との接着面は、従来では平坦である。しかし、接着面が平坦であると、面外方向荷重に十分な強度を有しない場合がある。
 本発明は、このような事情に鑑みてなされたものであって、継手と母材との接着面の強度をより強くできる、継手及び航空機構造を提供することを目的とする。
 上記課題を解決するために、本発明の継手及び航空機構造は以下の手段を採用する。
 本発明の第一態様に係る継手は、部材を母材に接合させるための継手であって、前記部材に対する引っ張り荷重が加えられる方向と直交する面に対して傾斜する傾斜部が、前記母材との接着面に形成され、前記傾斜部が前記母材へ埋め込まれて前記母材と接着される。
 本構成に係る継手は、部材を母材に接合させるものである。また、本構成に係る継手は、母材との接着面に傾斜部が形成される。傾斜部は、部材に対する引っ張り荷重が加えられる方向と直交する面に対して傾斜する。換言すると、傾斜部は、母材へ向かって傾斜する。一方、母材における継手との接着面は、継手の傾斜部が埋め込まれるように、傾斜部の形状に応じた掘り込み部が形成される。これにより、継手は、傾斜部が母材へ埋め込まれて母材と接着される。
 ここで、接着強度として、部材を引っ張る方向(面外方向)の強度である面外方向強度がある。すなわち、面外方向強度は、部材に対する引っ張り荷重(面外方向荷重)に対する強度である。また、接着強度は、面外方向強度の他に、接着面に対してせん断する方向(面内方向)の強度である面内方向強度に分けられる。
 そして、接着面が平坦である場合、面外方向強度と面内方向強度は直交する。このため、面外方向荷重に対する理論接着強度は、面外方向強度となる。
 一方、本構成のように接着面に傾斜部が形成されている場合、面内方向強度は面外方向の強度成分を有する。このため、面外方向荷重に対する理論接着強度は、面外接着強度に面内接着強度の正弦成分が加算された強度となる。
 すなわち、接着面に傾斜部が形成されている場合の方が、接着面が平坦である場合に比べて、接着強度が強くなる。特に、面外方向荷重を受けたときの接着面の端部におけるピーク応力が、傾斜部が形成されない場合に比べて低減される。
 従って、本構成は、継手と母材との接着面の強度をより強くできる。
 上記第一態様では、前記接着面に対して反対の面が、中央部より厚みが薄くなるように端部に向かって傾斜している。
 本構成は、接着面に対して反対の面が傾斜していない場合、すなわち継手の端部が例えば母材に対して垂直になっている場合に比べ、継手と母材との剛性差が小さくなる。なお、接着面に対して反対の面が傾斜することで、継手の端部の強度が低下することが懸念される。しかし、接着面に傾斜部が形成されることで、面外方向荷重を受けたときの継手の端部におけるピーク応力が低減されるので、継手の端部の破損が抑制される。
 上記第一態様では、前記傾斜部が、複数の傾斜面で形成される。
 本構成によれば、接着面の接着強度を均等にできる。
 上記第一態様では、前記傾斜部が、前記母材に対する角度が異なる複数の傾斜面で形成される。
 本構成によれば、継手に加わると予想される荷重に応じて、角度を異ならせることで接着面の強度を調整できる。
 上記第一態様では、前記傾斜部が、一つの傾斜面によって形成される。
 本構成によれば、簡易な構成で、継手と母材との接着面の強度をより強くできる。
 本発明の第二態様に係る航空機構造は、上記記載の継手と、前記継手の前記傾斜部が埋め込まれるように、前記傾斜部の形状に応じた堀込み部が形成される母材と、を備え、前記継手が前記母材に埋め込まれて接着により接合される。
 本発明によれば、継手と母材との接着面の強度をより強くできる、という優れた効果を有する。

 以下に、本発明に係る継手及び航空機構造の一実施形態について、図面を参照して説明する。
 図1は、航空機の主翼1を一部破断して示す斜視図である。
 主翼1には、上側スキン3、下側スキン5、前側スパー7、後側スパー9、及び複数のリブ11が備えられる。
 上側スキン3及び下側スキン5は、主翼1の外形を構成し、空力面も兼ねる薄板であり、前側スパー7、後側スパー9及びストリンガ(図示省略)とともに主翼1に働く引っ張り荷重や、圧縮荷重の一部を受け持つものである。
 前側スパー7及び後側スパー9は、図1に示されるように、主翼1の翼長方向に延びる構造部材であって、上側スキン3及び下側スキン5との間にわたって配置される部材である。
 前側スパー7と後側スパー9との間を、主翼1の翼長方向に延びる補助部材である複数のストリンガが上側スキン3又は下側スキン5の内側面に配置される。
 リブ11は、図1に示すように、主翼1の翼幅方向に延びるとともに、上側スキン3及び下側スキン5の間にわたって配置される構造部材である。換言すると、リブ11は、前側スパー7及び後側スパー9と略直交する方向に延びる構造部材であって、主翼1の断面形状に形成された板状の部材である。
 ここで、本実施形態に係る継手20(図2等参照)は、例えば上側スキン3と前側スパー7や後側スパー9との接合、下側スキン5と前側スパー7や後側スパー9との接合、リブ11と前側スパー7や後側スパー9との接合等に用いられる。なお、継手20は、航空機の主翼1以外の構造に用いられてもよい。
 次に、本実施形態に係る継手20の詳細について説明する。
 図2は、本実施形態に係る継手20及び母材22の形状を示す側面図であり、図3は、継手20と母材22とが接合した側面図であり、図4は、図3に示される領域Aの拡大図であり、図5は、継手20及び母材22の形状を示す斜視図である。
 本実施形態に係る継手20は、母材22に設けられ、溝部24が形成される所謂パイ(π)型継手である。
 継手20は、例えば、上述のように航空機の機体構造に用いられ、機体構造の一部を構成する部材(本実施形態では一例として板材26)が溝部24に差し込まれる。例えば、前側スパー7や後側スパー9が母材22であり、リブ11が板材26である。
 そして、板材26と溝部24との間隙に接着剤が充填されることにより、板材26は継手20に接着される。一方、継手20は、母材22に対して接着剤によって接着される。なお、母材22と継手20との接着方法及び継手20と板材26との接着方法は、特に限定されるものではない。
 このように、継手20を用いた接着により、ファスナが用いられることなく、板材26は母材22に接合される。
 継手20、母材22、及び板材26の材質は、例えば、炭素繊維強化プラスチック(Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced Plastic:CFRP)等の複合材である。CFRPは、補強材として炭素繊維が用いられ、マトリックスとして合成樹脂が用いられる。なお、これに限らず、継手20、母材22、及び板材26の材質として、アルミ合金等の金属が用いられてもよい。
 そして、本実施形態に係る継手20は、母材22との接着面25に傾斜部28が形成される。傾斜部28は、板材26に対する引っ張り荷重が加えられる方向(垂直方向、図3のA方向)と直交する面(水平方向、図3のB方向)に対して傾斜する。換言すると、傾斜部28は、母材22へ向かって傾斜する。なお、本実施形態に係る傾斜部28は、継手20の端部30から傾斜する。
 さらに、傾斜部28は、二つの傾斜面28A,28Bによって形成される。そして、傾斜面28A,28Bが交わって角部32を形成する。角部32は、継手20の長手方向、すなわち継手20の端部30と平行に延在する。
 また、継手20の接着面25に対して反対の面(以下「反対面」という。)34は、継手20の中央部より厚みが薄くなるように、端部30に向かってテーパ状に傾斜している。
 一方、母材22は、継手20との接着面36に継手20の傾斜部28が埋め込まれるように、傾斜部28の形状に応じた掘り込み部38が形成される。
 これにより、継手20は、傾斜部28が母材22へ埋め込まれて母材22と接着される。
 なお、以下の説明において、傾斜面28A,28BのB方向に対する角度を傾斜角θと定義する。また、以下の説明において、継手20の接着面25及び母材22の接着面36を総称して接着層という。
 次に、図6から図10を参照して、接着層の強度(以下「接着強度」という。)について説明する。
 図6は、掘り込み部38が形成されていない母材22における接着層の接着強度を示す模式図である。図7は、掘り込み部38が形成されている母材22における接着層の接着強度を示す模式図である。
 接着強度として、板材26を引っ張る方向(図6,7のA方向、以下「面外方向」という。)の強度である面外方向強度Ptallがある。すなわち、面外方向強度Ptallは、板材26に対する引っ張り荷重(以下「面外方向荷重」という。)に対する強度である。
 また、接着強度は、面外方向強度Ptallの他に、接着層に対してせん断する方向(図6,7のB方向、以下「面内方向」という。)の強度である面内方向強度Psallに分けられる。
 図6に示されるように接着層が平坦であると(傾斜角θ=0°)、面外方向強度Ptallと面内方向強度Psallは直交する。このため、母材22に掘り込み部38が形成されない場合における、面外方向荷重に対する理論接着強度Pallは、(1)式に示されるように、面外方向強度Ptallとなる。
 Pall=Ptall ・・・(1)
 一方、図7に示されるように母材22に掘り込み部38が形成され、接着層が傾斜していると(傾斜角θ≠0°)、面内方向強度Psallは面外方向の強度成分を有する。このため、面外方向荷重に対する理論接着強度Pallは、(2)式に示されるように、面外接着強度Ptallに面内接着強度Psallの正弦成分(Psall×sinθ)が加算された強度となる。
 Pall=Ptall+Psall×sinθ ・・・(2)
 すなわち、母材22に掘り込み部38が形成され、接着層が傾斜している場合の方が、接着層が平坦である場合に比べて、接着強度が強くなる。
 次に、母材22に掘り込み部38が形成され、接着層が傾斜している場合における、接着層に生じる応力の数値解析結果について説明する。数値解析は、有限要素法を用いて行われた。
 図8は数値解析モデル50の全体図であり、図9は図8の領域Bの拡大図である。
 図8,9に示されるように、数値解析モデル50は、掘り込み部38が形成された母材モデル52と傾斜部28が形成された継手モデル54とで形成される。なお、継手モデル54は、継手20と板材26とを組み合わせたモデルである。
 数値解析の条件として、母材モデル52の両端(端部A,B)を拘束し、継手モデル54に対して面外方向であるY方向に荷重(面外方向荷重)を付与した。
 材料特性としては、母材モデル52と継手モデル54を構成する複合材としてE=約60000MPa、ギャップフィラーモデル56をE=約40000MPa、接着層モデル58をE=約3000MPaとしている。なお、Eは、縦弾性係数(ヤング率)である。
 また、掘り込み部38が形成されない母材モデル52と傾斜部28が形成されない継手モデル54とで形成した数値解析モデル50でも、同様の条件で数値解析を行った。
 図10は、数値解析結果を示すグラフである。
 図10における破線は、母材22に掘り込み部38が形成されない数値解析モデル50の数値解析結果を示す。一方、実線は母材22に掘り込み部38が形成された数値解析モデル50の数値解析結果を示す。また、図10における横軸は数値解析モデル50のX方向であり、座標Aは接着層モデル58の端部を示し、座標CLは接着層モデル58の中央部を示す(図9も参照)。一方、縦軸は面外方向荷重を受けることにより生じる応力の大きさを示す。
 図10に示されるように、面外方向荷重を受けることにより、接着層モデル58の端部(座標A)にピーク応力が生じた。掘り込み部38が形成されない数値解析モデル50の方が、掘り込み部38が形成された数値解析モデル50に比べて、接着層モデル58の端部(座標A)におけるピーク応力が小さい。この理由は、掘り込み部38が形成されることにより、母材22と継手20の剛性差が滑らかになるためである。
 母材22に掘り込み部38が形成されることにより、掘り込み部38が形成されない場合に比べて、接着層モデル58の端部の応力は、約6割低減される。これにより、掘り込み部38が形成されることによる接着強度は、全体として約2.5倍向上する。
 また、本実施形態に係る継手20は、反対面34が端部30に向かって傾斜している。これにより、本実施形態に係る継手20は、端部30が例えば母材22に対して垂直になっている場合に比べ、継手20と母材22との剛性差が小さくなる。
 なお、端部30が傾斜することで端部30の強度が低下することが懸念される。しかし、継手20に傾斜部28が形成され、母材22に埋め込まれることで、図10に示されるように、面外方向荷重を受けたときの端部30におけるピーク応力が低減されるので、反対面34を端部30に向かって傾斜させても、端部30の破損が抑制される。
 また、本実施形態に係る継手20は、二面の傾斜面28A,28Bによって形成されるので、接着面25の接着強度を左右で均等にできる。
 以上説明したように、本実施形態に係る継手20は、板材26を母材22に接合させるためのものであって、板材26に対する引っ張り荷重が加えられる方向と直交する面に対して傾斜する傾斜部28が、母材22との接着面25に形成される。また、母材22は、継手20の傾斜部28が埋め込まれるように、傾斜部28の形状に応じた堀り込み部38が形成される。そして、継手20が母材22に埋め込まれて接着により接合される。
 従って、本実施形態に係る継手20は、継手20と母材22との接着面の強度をより強くできる。
〔第1変形例〕
 以下、本発明の第1変形例について説明する。
 図11は、本第1変形例に係る継手20及び母材22の形状を示す側面図であり、図12は、図11に示される領域Cの拡大図である。なお、図11,12における図3,4と同一の構成部分については図3,4と同一の符号を付して、その説明を省略する。
 本第1変形例に係る継手20は、図11,12に示されるように接着面25の端部30から継手20の中心方向へ向って平坦部60A,60Bが形成され、平坦部60A,60Bの端部から中心方向へ傾斜面28A,28Bが形成される。
〔第2変形例〕
 以下、本発明の第2変形例について説明する。
 図13は、本第2変形例に係る継手20及び母材22の形状を示す側面図であり、図14は、図13に示される領域Dの拡大図である。なお、図13,14における図3,4と同一の構成部分については図3,4と同一の符号を付して、その説明を省略する。
 本第3変形例に係る傾斜部28は、傾斜角が異なる複数の傾斜面28A,28B,28C,28Dで形成される。なお、図13,14の例では、傾斜面28Aと傾斜面28Bは同じ傾斜角であり、傾斜面28Cと傾斜面28Dは同じ傾斜角である。なお、これに限らず、傾斜部28は、4つ以上の傾斜面で形成されてもよい。
 これにより、継手20に加わると予想される荷重に応じて傾斜角を異ならせることができ、接着面25の強度が調整可能とされる。
〔第3変形例〕
 以下、本発明の第3変形例について説明する。
 図15は、本第3変形例に係る継手20及び母材22の形状を示す側面図である。
 第3変形例に係る傾斜部28は、一つの傾斜面によって形成される。
 これにより、第3変形例に係る継手20は、簡易な構成で、継手20と母材22との接着面25の強度をより強くできる。
〔第4変形例〕
 以下、本発明の第4変形例について説明する。
 図16は、本第4変形例に係る継手20A及び母材22の形状を示す側面図である。
 本第4変形例に係る継手20Aは、上述したパイ型の継手ではなく、T字型の継手とされる。
〔第5変形例〕
 以下、本発明の第5変形例について説明する。
 図17は、本第5変形例に係る継手20B及び母材22の形状を示す側面図である。
 本第5変形例に係る継手20Bは、上述したパイ型の継手ではなく、L字型の継手とされる。
 以上、本発明を、上記実施形態を用いて説明したが、本発明の技術的範囲は上記実施形態に記載の範囲には限定されない。発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲で上記実施形態に多様な変更又は改良を加えることができ、該変更又は改良を加えた形態も本発明の技術的範囲に含まれる。
 例えば、上記実施形態では、継手20を航空機構造に用いる形態について説明したが、本発明は、これに限定されるものではなく、継手20を航空機以外の構造に用いる形態としてもよい。
