Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a propulsion device in the field of aerospace, and in particular to a cylindrical structure made of fiber-reinforced plastic such as a fan cover of a jet engine and a motor cover of a rocket engine, and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique
[0002] Regarding the jet engine of an aircraft, as an example, external air is sucked in by a fan, compressed by a compressor, and used for combustion of fuel in a combustor. After part of the generated energy is extracted by the turbine, the combustion gas is discharged rearward from the nozzle at the rear of the engine. The entirety of a jet engine is generally surrounded and supported by an aerodynamically designed casing called the nacelle. The nacelle as a whole is very large, and required characteristics such as strength vary depending on the location of the nacelle, so the nacelle is typically manufactured by dividing it into a plurality of cowling parts such...

Embodiment Construction
[0017] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0018] For ease of description, the directions shown as L and R in the accompanying drawings are respectively expressed as left and right, and the directions shown as FR and FF are respectively expressed as backward and forward, but these expressions are non-limiting for the present invention of.
[0019] The manufacturing method of this embodiment can be applied as an example in Figure 7 Manufacture of fan shrouds for jet engines of aircraft shown in . The engine 3 generally includes an engine main body and an engine nacelle surrounding and supporting the engine main body, and the engine main body includes a fan 5 . The nacelle includes a plurality of cowling components, each cowling component being substantially symmetrical about an axis. Among the cowl parts, the part surrounding the fan 5 is the fan cover 1 . The fan cover 1 has a substantially cylindrical shap...
