Problems solved by technology

[0006] Soft tooling generally uses rubber as the main material, and the overall rigidity is poor, and it cannot be mechanically positioned with the forming tooling. Therefore, during the molding process of composite parts, the position of the soft tooling often shifts
If the part to be formed has elements such as thickened areas, once the position of the soft tooling deviates, it will inevitably affect the surface quality and contour of the part after molding, and cause the position deviation of the thickened area. In severe cases, it may lead to scrap

Embodiment Construction

[0025] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0026] The present invention molds the soft tooling through a metal mold. The forming mold is provided with dovetail-shaped positioning grooves, and the positioning grooves are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the mould. The quantity and specifications need to be determined in combination with the size and structural complexity of the composite material parts, such as figure 1 and 2 .

[0027] When laying soft tooling, fill the dovetail groove with rubber and connect it with the soft tooling, so that after the soft tooling is solidified, a certain number of dovetail-shaped rubber positioning blocks will be attached to the edge, such as image 3 .

[0028] There are also several dovetail-shaped positioning grooves on the molding die of composite material parts, and the size specifications and positions are consistent with the soft to...

Abstract

The invention discloses a positioning method of a flexible tool in a forming process of a composite product. The positioning method comprises the following steps: more than two dovetail-shaped positioning grooves are respectively formed in two sides of a flexible tool forming mold; a metal false piece is placed on the surface of the flexible tool forming mold; when the flexible tool is laid and adhered to the surface of the metal false piece, the dovetail-shaped grooves are filled with rubber, the rubber is connected with the flexible tool, the outside of the flexible tool is sealed under vacuum by a vacuum bag, and then the sealed flexible tool enters an autoclave for forming; after a rubber flexible mold is formed, the vacuum bag is removed, the metal false piece is taken out, the shaped flexible tool is filled with composites, then the outer layer of the shaped flexible tool is sealed under vacuum by the vacuum bag, and the flexible tool enters the autoclave for forming to obtain the composite product. By the dovetail-shaped positioning groove structure, positioning between the flexible tool and the forming mold is finished, the flexible tool is fixed and does not deviate in the forming process of the composite product, and therefore, the surface forming quality of the composite product is guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of advanced composite material manufacturing, and in particular relates to the manufacturing of high-performance carbon fiber composite structural parts in the industry of aircraft, spacecraft and automobiles.
