Description

本発明は、繊維強化プラスチックの成形方法に関する。また、繊維強化プラスチックを成形するため成形具に関する。   The present invention relates to a method for molding a fiber reinforced plastic. The present invention also relates to a molding tool for molding fiber reinforced plastic.

繊維強化プラスチック(Fiber Reinforced Plastics;以下、「FRP」と称す)の成形方法の1つにRTM(Resin Transfer Molding)成形法がある。RTM成形法は、繊維が配置された成形型の内部に所定の圧力で樹脂を供給し、樹脂の圧力を維持したまま樹脂を硬化させる方法である。RTM成形法によれば、繊維に樹脂を含浸させつつ、この繊維と樹脂からなるFRPの成形を行うことができる。   One of the molding methods of fiber reinforced plastics (hereinafter referred to as “FRP”) is an RTM (Resin Transfer Molding) molding method. The RTM molding method is a method in which a resin is supplied at a predetermined pressure into a molding die in which fibers are arranged, and the resin is cured while maintaining the pressure of the resin. According to the RTM molding method, an FRP made of the fiber and the resin can be molded while impregnating the fiber with the resin.

RTM成形法では、樹脂が硬化する前に樹脂を成形型(繊維)の隅々にまで供給する必要がある。ただし、樹脂を成形型の内部に供給する際、高い繊維密度(成形が行われる空間の容積に対する繊維の量の割合)で配置された繊維が大きな抵抗となる。ここで、特許文献1には、成形型の内部に樹脂を供給する際に上型と下型の締め付けを緩めることで内部の容積を増加させる一方、樹脂を供給した後には上型と下型の締め付けを元に戻すという方法が開示されている。特許文献1に記載の方法によれば、成形型の内部に樹脂を供給する際、成形型の容積が増えるため、繊維密度が小さくなって繊維による抵抗が小さくなる。   In the RTM molding method, it is necessary to supply the resin to every corner of the mold (fiber) before the resin is cured. However, when the resin is supplied to the inside of the mold, the fibers arranged at a high fiber density (ratio of the amount of fibers to the volume of the space where the molding is performed) have a large resistance. Here, in Patent Document 1, when the resin is supplied to the inside of the molding die, the inner volume is increased by loosening the tightening of the upper die and the lower die. On the other hand, after the resin is supplied, the upper die and the lower die are increased. A method of returning the tightening to the original is disclosed. According to the method described in Patent Document 1, when the resin is supplied into the mold, the volume of the mold increases, so the fiber density decreases and the resistance due to the fibers decreases.

特開2007−301723号公報JP 2007-301723 A

ところで、特許文献1に記載の方法を実施するためには、樹脂の圧力に対抗して上型と下型を締め付けることができる大きな駆動力と高い動作精度(締め付けによる隙間の変動は0.1〜5mm)を備えた装置が必要である。このような装置としては、例えば高精度の油圧プレスを備えた装置が考えられるが、高精度の油圧プレスを備えた装置は構成が複雑で、大型化も避けられない。   By the way, in order to carry out the method described in Patent Document 1, a large driving force and high operation accuracy capable of tightening the upper mold and the lower mold against the pressure of the resin (the fluctuation of the gap due to the tightening is 0.1). A device with ˜5 mm) is required. As such an apparatus, for example, an apparatus provided with a high-precision hydraulic press is conceivable. However, an apparatus provided with a high-precision hydraulic press has a complicated configuration, and an increase in size is inevitable.

本発明は、このような事情に鑑みてなされたものであり、樹脂を成形具に供給する際に繊維による抵抗を小さくすることができ、かつ、これを簡易な設備で実施することができる成形方法を提供することを目的としている。   This invention is made | formed in view of such a situation, When supplying resin to a shaping | molding tool, the resistance by a fiber can be made small, and this can be implemented with simple equipment. It aims to provide a method.

Therefore, the resin is supplied to the mold in a state where the volume of the molded part is large and the resistance by the fibers is small, while the volume of the molded part can be reduced according to the size of the molded product when the resin is cured. And since the pressure of high pressure air should just be larger than the pressure of resin, the installation for performing precise control is unnecessary. Furthermore, according to said structure, the other surface of a molded product can be shape | molded with an elastic film. Therefore, a molding die for molding the other surface of the molded product is not necessary.

(第1実施形態)
<成形具の構成>
まず、第1実施形態に係る成形具100の構成について説明する。図1は、成形具100の分解断面図である。図1に示すように、成形具100は、成形型10と、暫定型20と、弾性フィルム30と、固定部材40と、隙間調整部材50と、を備えている。以下、これらの構成要素について順に説明する。
(First embodiment)
<Configuration of molding tool>
First, the configuration of the forming tool 100 according to the first embodiment will be described. FIG. 1 is an exploded cross-sectional view of the forming tool 100. As shown in FIG. 1, the molding tool 100 includes a molding die 10, a temporary die 20, an elastic film 30, a fixing member 40, and a gap adjusting member 50. Hereinafter, these components will be described in order.

成形型10は、成形品104(図8参照)の一方の面の反転形状を有する部材である。本実施形態の成形型10は凸状であり、成形具100の上方部分にあたる。成形型10には、成形具100の内部と成形具100の外部をつなぐ第1通路11が複数箇所(本実施形態では3箇所)に形成されている。各第1通路11は、開閉バルブを有する配管(図示せず)に連結されており、これらの配管を介して空気が吸引され又は樹脂が供給される。   The molding die 10 is a member having an inverted shape of one surface of the molded product 104 (see FIG. 8). The molding die 10 of this embodiment is convex and corresponds to the upper part of the molding tool 100. In the molding die 10, first passages 11 that connect the inside of the molding tool 100 and the outside of the molding tool 100 are formed at a plurality of locations (three locations in the present embodiment). Each first passage 11 is connected to piping (not shown) having an open / close valve, and air is sucked or resin is supplied through these piping.

暫定型20は、成形型10と重なることで成形型10との間に成形品104(図8参照)よりも大きな拡大空間22(図4参照)を形成する部材である。本実施形態の暫定型20は凹状であり、成形具100の下方部分にあたる。暫定型20には、成形具100の内部と成形具100の外部をつなぐ第2通路21が形成されている。第2通路21は、開閉バルブを有する配管(図示せず)に連結されており、この配管を介して空気の供給及び吸引が行われる。また、暫定型20は、拡大空間22に面する暫定面23を有している。   The temporary mold 20 is a member that forms an enlarged space 22 (see FIG. 4) that is larger than the molded product 104 (see FIG. 8) between the temporary mold 20 and the mold 10. The temporary mold 20 of the present embodiment is concave and corresponds to the lower part of the forming tool 100. In the temporary mold 20, a second passage 21 that connects the inside of the forming tool 100 and the outside of the forming tool 100 is formed. The 2nd channel | path 21 is connected with piping (not shown) which has an on-off valve, and supply and suction | inhalation of air are performed through this piping. The provisional mold 20 has a provisional surface 23 that faces the expansion space 22.

弾性フィルム30は、成形型10と暫定型20の間に配置されている。この弾性フィルム30と成形型10で画された成形部31において、成形品104が成形される。弾性フィルム30は高い伸縮性を有しており、成形型10又は暫定型20の形状に沿って変形できるように構成されている。一例として、弾性フィルム30はシリコーン樹脂製のフィルムで形成されていてもよく、フッ素樹脂製のフィルムで形成されていてもよい。なお、本実施形態の弾性フィルム30は、平面膜状に形成されており、その厚みは、後述する隙間調整部材50の高さ(厚さ)よりも大きくなるよう構成されている。   The elastic film 30 is disposed between the mold 10 and the temporary mold 20. In the molding part 31 defined by the elastic film 30 and the molding die 10, a molded product 104 is molded. The elastic film 30 has high stretchability and is configured to be deformable along the shape of the mold 10 or the temporary mold 20. As an example, the elastic film 30 may be formed of a film made of a silicone resin, or may be formed of a film made of a fluororesin. In addition, the elastic film 30 of this embodiment is formed in planar film shape, and the thickness is comprised so that it may become larger than the height (thickness) of the clearance gap adjustment member 50 mentioned later.

固定部材40は、成形型10と暫定型20を固定するための部材である。本実施形態では、固定部材40としてボルトを使用しているが、他の部材であってもよい。例えば、成形を行う際、成形型10と暫定型20が互いに離れる方向に力がかかるが、この力に耐えうるものであれば成形型10と暫定型20の両方に係止するフック状の部材を固定部材40として採用してもよい。   The fixing member 40 is a member for fixing the molding die 10 and the temporary die 20. In the present embodiment, a bolt is used as the fixing member 40, but another member may be used. For example, when molding is performed, a force is applied in a direction in which the mold 10 and the temporary mold 20 are separated from each other, but a hook-like member that can be locked to both the mold 10 and the temporary mold 20 as long as it can withstand this force. May be employed as the fixing member 40.

隙間調整部材50は、成形型10と暫定型20によって挟持される部材であって、高さ(厚さ)を変更できるように構成されている。隙間調整部材50は、その高さを変更することにより、拡大空間22の大きさを調整することができる。本実施形態の隙間調整部材50は、いわゆるシムであるが、これに代えてジャッキボルトを採用してもよく、また、傾斜部を有する一組の部材の相対位置を変えて高さを変更するような構成を採用してもよい。   The gap adjusting member 50 is a member that is sandwiched between the molding die 10 and the temporary die 20 and is configured so that the height (thickness) can be changed. The gap adjusting member 50 can adjust the size of the enlarged space 22 by changing its height. The gap adjusting member 50 of the present embodiment is a so-called shim, but instead of this, a jack bolt may be adopted, and the height is changed by changing the relative position of a pair of members having inclined portions. Such a configuration may be adopted.

<成形方法>
次に、本実施形態に係る成形方法について説明する。図2から図8は、本実施形態に係る成形方法を順に示した図である。
<Molding method>
Next, the molding method according to this embodiment will be described. 2 to 8 are diagrams sequentially illustrating the molding method according to the present embodiment.

まず、図2に示すように、暫定型20の内面(暫定面23)に沿うようにして弾性フィルム30を暫定型20に取り付ける。具体的には、暫定型20を弾性フィルム30で覆い、その状態で暫定型20と弾性フィルム30との間の空気を第2通路21から排出する。これにより、弾性フィルム30は暫定型20の暫定面23に密着し、暫定型20の形状に変形する。   First, as shown in FIG. 2, the elastic film 30 is attached to the temporary mold 20 along the inner surface (temporary surface 23) of the temporary mold 20. Specifically, the temporary mold 20 is covered with the elastic film 30, and the air between the temporary mold 20 and the elastic film 30 is discharged from the second passage 21 in this state. As a result, the elastic film 30 is brought into close contact with the provisional surface 23 of the provisional mold 20 and deformed into the shape of the provisional mold 20.

続いて、図3に示すように、暫定型20の形状に変形した弾性フィルム30に沿って繊維101を配置する。つまり、弾性フィルム30の成形型10(図1参照)に対向する面に繊維101を敷き詰める。   Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 3, the fibers 101 are arranged along the elastic film 30 deformed into the shape of the temporary mold 20. That is, the fibers 101 are spread on the surface of the elastic film 30 that faces the mold 10 (see FIG. 1).

続いて、図4に示すように、弾性フィルム30の端部及び隙間調整部材50を挟むようにして、成形型10を暫定型20と重ね合わせる。そして、この状態で固定部材40によって暫定型20と成形型10を固定する。なお、弾性フィルム30の端部は全周に渡って成形型10と暫定型20の間に挟まれており、これにより弾性フィルム30は成形型10及び暫定型20に固定される。また、このとき弾性フィルム30と成形型10で画される成形部31の容積は、成形品104(図8参照)の体積よりも大きい。つまり、成形部31の容積に対する繊維101の量の割合(繊維密度)は、成形品104の体積に対する繊維の量の割合よりも小さい。   Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 4, the mold 10 is overlapped with the temporary mold 20 so as to sandwich the end portion of the elastic film 30 and the gap adjusting member 50. In this state, the temporary mold 20 and the mold 10 are fixed by the fixing member 40. Note that the end portion of the elastic film 30 is sandwiched between the molding die 10 and the temporary die 20 over the entire circumference, whereby the elastic film 30 is fixed to the molding die 10 and the temporary die 20. At this time, the volume of the molded part 31 defined by the elastic film 30 and the mold 10 is larger than the volume of the molded product 104 (see FIG. 8). That is, the ratio of the amount of the fibers 101 to the volume of the molded part 31 (fiber density) is smaller than the ratio of the amount of the fibers to the volume of the molded product 104.

続いて、図5に示すように、成形部31の空気を吸引する真空引きを行う。図5の例では、中央に位置する第1通路11に連結された配管の開閉バルブを閉めて、左右に位置する第1通路11を介して成形部31の空気を吸引する。このような真空引きを行うことで、成形部31に樹脂102を供給する際に空気が成形部31に取り残されるのを防ぐことができる。なお、成形部31の真空引きを行う際には、弾性フィルム30が成形型10側に引き寄せられないように、第2通路21からも吸引を行う。   Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 5, evacuation for sucking air of the molding part 31 is performed. In the example of FIG. 5, the opening / closing valve of the pipe connected to the first passage 11 located at the center is closed, and the air of the molding part 31 is sucked through the first passage 11 located on the left and right. By performing such evacuation, it is possible to prevent air from being left in the molding unit 31 when the resin 102 is supplied to the molding unit 31. In addition, when evacuating the molding part 31, suction is also performed from the second passage 21 so that the elastic film 30 is not drawn toward the molding die 10 side.

続いて、図6に示すように、成形部31に樹脂102を供給する。図6の例では、左右の第1通路11を介して引き続き成形部31の空気を吸引しつつ、中央の第1通路11から所定圧力で樹脂102を成形部31に供給する。これにより、成形部31では中央から左右へ向かう樹脂102の流れができ、成形部31の隅々にまで樹脂102が供給される。なお、成形部31に樹脂102を供給する時点では、繊維密度が小さいため、繊維101による抵抗は小さい。   Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 6, the resin 102 is supplied to the molding unit 31. In the example of FIG. 6, the resin 102 is supplied from the central first passage 11 to the molding portion 31 with a predetermined pressure while continuing to suck air from the molding portion 31 through the left and right first passages 11. As a result, the resin 102 flows from the center to the left and right in the molding part 31, and the resin 102 is supplied to every corner of the molding part 31. In addition, since the fiber density is small at the time of supplying the resin 102 to the molding part 31, the resistance by the fiber 101 is small.

続いて、図7に示すように、左右に位置する第1通路11に連結される配管の開閉バルブを閉めて樹脂102の流れを止める。そして、中央に位置する第1通路11を介して樹脂102を所定の圧力で成形部31に供給し、この状態を維持する。さらに、この状態において、第2通路21を介して樹脂102の圧力よりも大きい高圧空気103を暫定型20と弾性フィルム30の間に供給する。これにより、弾性フィルム30は成形型10側に付勢されて、暫定型20の暫定面23から離間する。このとき、成形部31の容積は、成形品104の体積と一致する(繊維101の厚さによる決まる容積となる)。   Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 7, the flow of the resin 102 is stopped by closing the opening / closing valve of the pipe connected to the first passage 11 located on the left and right. And the resin 102 is supplied to the shaping | molding part 31 with the predetermined | prescribed pressure through the 1st channel | path 11 located in the center, and this state is maintained. Further, in this state, high pressure air 103 larger than the pressure of the resin 102 is supplied between the temporary mold 20 and the elastic film 30 through the second passage 21. As a result, the elastic film 30 is urged toward the mold 10 and is separated from the provisional surface 23 of the provisional mold 20. At this time, the volume of the molding part 31 coincides with the volume of the molded product 104 (the volume is determined by the thickness of the fiber 101).

その後、樹脂102が硬化するまで、弾性フィルム30が暫定面23から離間した状態を維持する。本実施形態の樹脂102は熱硬化性樹脂であり、樹脂102を成形具100に供給する時点で成形型10は加熱されている。そのため、樹脂102は所定時間後に硬化して繊維101を含んだプラスチック、すなわちFRPが所定の形状に成形される。なお、パスカルの原理により、弾性フィルム30の表面には高圧空気103から均一の圧力が加わる。そのため、弾性フィルム30は伸縮性を有しているにもかかわらず、表面に大きな凹凸は生じない。その結果、成形品104の表面にも大きな凹凸が生じることはない。   Thereafter, the elastic film 30 is kept away from the provisional surface 23 until the resin 102 is cured. The resin 102 of the present embodiment is a thermosetting resin, and the mold 10 is heated when the resin 102 is supplied to the molding tool 100. Therefore, the resin 102 is cured after a predetermined time, and a plastic containing the fibers 101, that is, FRP is formed into a predetermined shape. Note that, due to Pascal's principle, a uniform pressure is applied from the high-pressure air 103 to the surface of the elastic film 30. Therefore, although the elastic film 30 has stretchability, large unevenness is not generated on the surface. As a result, there is no large unevenness on the surface of the molded product 104.

最後に、図8に示すように、第1通路11からの樹脂102の供給及び第2通路21からの高圧空気103の供給を止めて、成形型10を暫定型20から取り外す。そして、成形品104を成形具100から取り出す。以上で、所定の形状を有する成形品104が完成する。   Finally, as shown in FIG. 8, the supply of the resin 102 from the first passage 11 and the supply of the high-pressure air 103 from the second passage 21 are stopped, and the mold 10 is removed from the temporary mold 20. Then, the molded product 104 is taken out from the molding tool 100. The molded product 104 having a predetermined shape is thus completed.

このように、本実施形態によれば、樹脂102を成形具100に供給する際には、繊維101による抵抗を小さくすることができる。そのため、樹脂102が硬化する前に樹脂102を成形具100の隅々にまで供給することができる。また、弾性フィルム30と暫定型20の間に高圧空気103を供給するか否かの制御で、成形部31の容積を変更することができる。そのため、本実施形態では、高圧空気103の精密な圧力制御等を行うための設備は不要である。さらに、成形品104の他方の面は、弾性フィルム30で成形することができるため、成形品104の両面を成形型で成形する場合に比べて、より簡易な設備で実施することができる。   Thus, according to this embodiment, when the resin 102 is supplied to the molding tool 100, the resistance due to the fibers 101 can be reduced. Therefore, the resin 102 can be supplied to every corner of the molding tool 100 before the resin 102 is cured. Further, the volume of the molding unit 31 can be changed by controlling whether or not the high-pressure air 103 is supplied between the elastic film 30 and the temporary mold 20. Therefore, in this embodiment, equipment for performing precise pressure control or the like of the high-pressure air 103 is unnecessary. Furthermore, since the other surface of the molded product 104 can be molded with the elastic film 30, it can be implemented with simpler equipment than when both surfaces of the molded product 104 are molded with a mold.
