Definitions
- the present invention relates to a rib-reinforced molded body and a method for manufacturing the same.
- Carbon fiber which is a reinforcing fiber material, is composited with various matrix resins, and the resulting fiber-reinforced plastics have come to be widely used in various fields and applications.
- unidirectional continuous fibers are used along with thermoplastic resins as matrix resins.
- Patent Document 1 discloses that a lattice pattern is formed on one side of a prepreg in which reinforcing fibers are impregnated with a matrix resin.
- a molded product in which lattice-shaped reinforcing ribs and prepreg are joined and integrated by injection molding thermoplastic resin.
- Patent Document 2 discloses a thermoplastic resin layer with a thickness of 0.01 to 30 mm on the surface and/or intermediate layer of a single-layer or multi-layer flexible carbon fiber composite material plate with a thickness of 0.01 to 2.0 mm. Discloses a carbon fiber composite molded product obtained by injection molding and bonding and integrating.
- Patent Document 3 discloses that a prepreg in which reinforcing fibers are impregnated with a matrix resin is heated in a mold, a thermoplastic resin is melted and injected into the groove, and the injection-molded reinforcing rib is integrally formed with the prepreg. I am proposing to do so.
- the present invention provides a rib-reinforced molded product that has high strength and rigidity even when the wall thickness is reduced, and a method for manufacturing the same.
- the present invention provides a rib-reinforced molded body in which a resin-containing molded body and reinforcing ribs are integrally molded, wherein the reinforcing ribs include reinforcing fibers and a thermoplastic resin, and the reinforcing fibers include reinforcing fibers and a thermoplastic resin.
- a rib-reinforced molded article including continuous fibers arranged along the length direction of the reinforcing ribs.
- the present invention provides a method for manufacturing an example of the rib-reinforced molded article of the present invention, comprising: heating and softening a laminate in which reinforcing ribs are arranged on the material of the molded body main body containing resin; vacuum forming the laminate in a lower mold having a pressure reduction line; and upper mold having a pressure line. vacuum-pressure forming the laminate by supplying compressed air from the lower mold side to the lower mold side, or After positioning and arranging the reinforcing ribs in the cavity of the molding die, the material for the molded body main body containing molten resin is injected into the cavity and injection molding is performed, thereby forming the molded body and the reinforcing ribs. It relates to a method of manufacturing a rib-reinforced molded body, which is integrally molded with the rib-reinforced molded body.
- the present invention provides a method for manufacturing another example of the rib-reinforced molded article of the present invention, comprising: A plurality of base sheets that contain resin and are the material of the base layer constituting the molded body are laminated, and reinforcing fibers and thermoplastic resin are placed between any one of the plurality of base sheets. A plurality of the bases are laminated with the rib member such that a rib member including the rib member is arranged as a reinforcing rib, and a convex strip corresponding to the outer shape of the rib member is formed on one main surface of the rib-reinforced molded body.
- the present invention relates to a method for producing a rib-reinforced molded body, in which a rib-reinforced molded body is integrally formed with a material sheet by a vacuum forming method, a pressure forming method, or a vacuum pressure forming method.
- the rib-reinforced molded article of the present invention includes reinforcing ribs integrally molded on a molded article body containing resin, and the reinforcing fibers constituting the reinforcing ribs are continuous fibers arranged along the length direction of the reinforcing ribs. Since the reinforcing ribs themselves have high strength and rigidity, it is possible to provide a rib-reinforced molded body that has high strength and rigidity even if the molded body is thinned.
- the reinforcing ribs are integrally molded with the material of the molded body body by a vacuum-pressure molding method or an injection molding method. Therefore, the rib-reinforced molded body can be efficiently manufactured.
- a plurality of base sheets containing resin are laminated, and reinforcing fibers are placed between any one of the plurality of base sheets.
- Rib members containing plastic resin are arranged and these are integrally molded by vacuum forming, pressure forming, or vacuum pressure forming, so the rib-reinforced molded body of the present invention has high strength and rigidity, and can have various shapes. Can be manufactured.
