Detailed Description
The invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Wherein the showings are for the purpose of illustration only and are shown by way of illustration only and not in actual form, and are not to be construed as limiting the present patent; to better illustrate the embodiments of the present invention, some parts of the drawings may be omitted, enlarged or reduced, and do not represent the size of an actual product; it will be understood by those skilled in the art that certain well-known structures in the drawings and descriptions thereof may be omitted.
Example one
A method for manufacturing a light composite thrust rod comprises the steps that as shown in figure 1, the thrust rod comprises an outermost peripheral layer reinforcing part 11 and long fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite materials or short fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite materials injected into the outer peripheral layer reinforcing part 11, metal steel sleeves 12 are arranged at two ends in the outer peripheral layer reinforcing part 11, and rubber metal ball hinges 13 are pressed in the metal steel sleeves 12.
As shown in fig. 2, the outer peripheral layer reinforcement 11 is a continuous enclosing structure formed by winding a strip-shaped continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material and sealed in the circumferential direction, and provides an integral support for the whole thrust rod 1, and because the whole outer peripheral layer reinforcement 11 is a whole formed by winding a continuous and complete material strip, when the outer peripheral structure serving as the thrust rod wraps the inside of the outer peripheral layer reinforcement, the tensile strength of the formed thrust rod 1 is greatly improved, and the requirements of light weight and high strength are met.
As shown in fig. 3, the metal steel sleeve 12 is a circular cylinder. As shown in fig. 4, the rubber metal spherical hinge 13 includes an outer sleeve 131, a rubber vulcanized body 132 and a core shaft 133 from outside to inside, and the rubber vulcanized body 132 vulcanizes and connects the outer sleeve 131 and the core shaft 133 into a whole and then presses the whole into the metal steel sleeve 12.
Before the thrust rod 1 is manufactured, the outer peripheral layer reinforcing member 11 needs to be manufactured through the tool 2. As shown in fig. 5, the fixture 2 includes a fixing plate 21, a central body 22 disposed on the fixing plate 21, a pressing block 23, and an air cylinder 24, wherein a positioning slot 25 is disposed on an upper surface of the fixing plate 21, a positioning plate 26 is disposed on a lower surface of the central body 22, the positioning plate 26 is matched with the positioning slot 25 in size, the positioning plate 26 and the positioning slot 25 are in clearance fit, the central body 22 can be separated from the fixing plate 21, and the central body 22 can be positioned on the fixing plate 21 after the positioning plate 26 is embedded into the positioning slot 25. The four pressing blocks 23 are respectively arranged at two sides and two ends of the positioning groove 25, and each pressing block 23 is provided with an air cylinder 24 for pushing the pressing block to move close to or far away from the central body 22. When the strip-shaped continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material is wound around the periphery of the central body 22 and the air cylinder 24 pushes the pressing blocks 23 to be close to the central body 22 to extrude the wound continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material, the shape of the periphery of the central body 22 is the same as that of the periphery of the thrust rod 1, and the shape formed by combining the surfaces of the four pressing blocks 23 close to the central body 22 is also the same as that of the periphery of the thrust rod 1. In this embodiment, the central body 22 is a metal member manufactured according to the outer peripheral shape of the thrust rod 1, and thus the thrust rod 1 is specifically manufactured by:
the first step is as follows: after winding the belt-shaped continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material on the outer periphery of the central body 22 for a plurality of circles, heating the wound continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material, pushing the pressing block 23 to extrude towards the central body 22 by using the air cylinder 24 to shape the continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material, cooling, loosening the air cylinder 24 to separate the pressing block 23 from the central body 22, and taking down the continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material from the central body 22 to form the outer periphery layer reinforcing part 11.
The second step is that: and (2) heating the outer peripheral layer reinforcing part 11 again, then placing the outer peripheral layer reinforcing part into an injection mold, placing a metal steel sleeve 12 at each of two ends of the inner part of the outer peripheral layer reinforcing part, then injecting a long fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material or a short fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material into a space between the outer peripheral layer reinforcing part 11 and the metal steel sleeve 12, demolding, and then pressing a rubber metal spherical hinge 13 into the two metal steel sleeves 12, thus completing the manufacture of the thrust rod 1.
As shown in fig. 9, the thrust rod 1 manufactured in the present embodiment is compared with the tensile strength curve of the thrust rod manufactured by the applicant currently in a conventional manner, where line a is a graph of the thrust rod in the present embodiment, and line b is a graph of the conventional thrust rod, and it can be seen from the graph that the thrust rod of the present embodiment can bear a larger limit load, has a stronger structural strength under the same conditions, and thus has a wider trial vehicle model.
The first step may be modified to: a heating device such as an infrared heating device is arranged near the tool 2, the strip-shaped continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material is heated and wound on the outer side of the central body 22 for a plurality of times, the pressing block 23 is pushed by the air cylinder 24 to extrude towards the central body 22, so that the continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material is shaped, then the air cylinder 24 is cooled, and the continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material is taken down from the central body 22 to form the outer peripheral layer reinforcing part 11. The mode of heating while winding can save the time of independent heating before pressing, and improve the production efficiency. Or the wound continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material may be cold pressed and then the entire tool 2 may be heated together with the material. In addition, the continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material in a tape form is a commercially available product, and the width thereof is not necessarily exactly equal to the width of the outer periphery of the thrust rod 1, and therefore, before winding, the continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material needs to be cut in width while maintaining the original length in length, so that the outer periphery layer reinforcement member 11 is formed by forming a complete continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material tape, and the tensile strength thereof is improved.
In the second step, when the steel metal sleeve 12 is placed on the outer-periphery-layer reinforcing member 11, the clearance between the steel metal sleeve 12 and the outer-periphery-layer reinforcing member 11 is controlled to be within 0 to 5 mm. Because the thicker the glue layer is during injection molding, the more defects caused by the injection molding process are, the performance of the product is reduced, and therefore, the distance between the metal steel sleeve 12 and the peripheral layer reinforcement 11 is controlled, the glue injection amount is reduced, the defects of the connecting part are reduced or eliminated, and the performance of the thrust rod 1 is improved. Meanwhile, during injection molding, the edge of the peripheral layer reinforcing part 11, which is in contact with the long fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material or the short fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material, is wrapped in a cavity of the mold core surrounding city, so that the rubber material extends outwards in the injection molding process to form a bound edge structure at the joint edge. Although the peripheral layer reinforcement 11 is the same as the injection molding material matrix, the two are formed by different forming methods, and the bonding performance of the two is poorer than that of the same forming process, so that the bonding part is easy to delaminate and peel off in the subsequent long-term loading process, the edge covering structure forms a U-shaped coating, the contact surface between the two materials is increased, the interface fusion strength of different materials is increased, the structure can bear larger load, and therefore the structure is not easy to peel off, the performance of the thrust rod 1 is improved, and meanwhile, the injection molding is easy to realize full-automatic production. In addition, the structure of the long fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material or the short fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material molded after injection is the grid structure 14, the quality of the thrust rod 1 is further reduced, the direction of ribs forming the grid structure 14 is the same as the direction of a load transfer path borne by the thrust rod 1, and the thrust rod 1 mainly bears three loads in the using process: the tensile, compression, torsion, tensile and compressive loads are transmitted along the length direction of the product, and the continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material is placed in the length direction and arranged at the periphery, so that the tensile and compressive loads can be borne; for the torsional load, the middle grid structure 14 is mainly used for resisting, when a product is twisted, the tensile strength of the composite material which is a material with poor plasticity is lower than the compressive strength and the shear strength, the deformation is always smaller in the twisting process, and finally the composite material is pulled apart on the inclined plane which forms an inclined angle of 45 degrees with the central connecting line of the two metal steel sleeves 12, so that the rib direction can be arranged at an inclined angle of 45 degrees with the central connecting line under the condition that the process of the grid structure 14 allows, namely the rib direction is the same as the load transmission direction, so that the torsional strength of the thrust rod 1 is improved.
Example two
The present embodiment differs from the above embodiments in that: in this embodiment, the central body 22 is a mold core portion that limits a molding structure of a long fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material or a short fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material during an injection molding process, and the metal steel sleeves 12 are used as two end portions of the central body 22, so that the thrust rod 1 is specifically manufactured in the following manner:
the first step is as follows: a heating device such as an infrared heating device is arranged near the tool 2, the strip-shaped continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material is wound for a plurality of circles around the outer side of a central body 22 formed by the metal steel sleeve 12 and the die core while being heated, the pressing block 23 is pushed by the air cylinder 24 to extrude towards the central body 22 to shape the continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material, the air cylinder 24 is loosened to separate the pressing block 23 from the central body 22, and the manufacturing of the peripheral layer reinforcing part 11 is completed.
The second step is that: putting the peripheral layer reinforcement 11 and the central body 22 into an injection mold, injecting a long fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material or a short fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material into a space between the peripheral layer reinforcement 11 and the metal steel sleeves 12, and pressing the rubber metal spherical hinge 13 into the two metal steel sleeves 12 after demolding to complete the manufacture of the thrust rod 1.
Compared with the first embodiment, the outer periphery layer reinforcing part 11 does not need to be taken out of the central body 22 before injection molding, so that reheating after cooling is not needed, the time is saved, the production speed is improved, and the method is suitable for batch production. And as shown in fig. 8, in the embodiment, the groove 121 is formed on the outer periphery of the metal steel sleeve 12, and during the injection molding process, the glue can flow into between the metal steel sleeve 12 and the outer periphery layer reinforcing member 11 along the groove 121, so that the two are combined together to form a whole.
Of course, the first step of this embodiment may also be changed to: winding a plurality of turns of the strip-shaped continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material on the outer side of a central body 22 formed by the metal steel sleeve 12 and the die core, heating the wound continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material, pushing a pressing block 23 to extrude towards the central body 22 by using an air cylinder 24 to shape the continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material, loosening the air cylinder 24 to separate the pressing block 23 from the central body 22, and finishing the manufacture of the peripheral layer reinforcing part 11.
