Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rocket combustion chambers, in particular to a solid rocket engine combustion chamber front head insulation layer bonding structure. Background Art
[0002] The combustion chamber of a solid rocket engine is an important part of the solid rocket engine. The design and performance of the combustion chamber have a vital impact on the overall performance of the solid rocket engine, including thrust size, working reliability, etc. Its structure usually needs to have good strength, high temperature resistance and suitable internal shape and size to achieve the best combustion effect and engine performance. Different types of solid rocket engines have different structures and sizes of combustion chambers. Generally speaking, the larger the diameter and length of the combustion chamber, the greater the thrust of the engine. It has a wide range of applications in aerospace, military and other fields. The front head is a solid An important component of the rocket engine combustion chamber, generally used for igniter installation or fixing free-loading grains, is an indispensable part of the combustion chamber. The common front head is generally composed of a front head shell and an insulation layer. The function of the insulation layer is to prevent the front head shell from being damaged by high-temperature and high-combustion gas, affecting the structural integrity of the combustion chamber. Generally, there are two bonding technologies for the front head insulation layer. One is the vulcanization bonding method, that is, after the insulation layer is pressed and vulcanized, it is bonded to the front head shell with an adhesive. The other is integral compression molding, in which the front head shell is used as a part of the tooling, and the compression molding technology is used to press and bond the insulation layer to the surface of the front head shell.
[0003] In daily work, the inventors found that in the process of traditional vulcanization bonding method, due to the certain shrinkage of the insulation layer, the bonding interface with the shell is poor after vulcanization, and the bonding surface needs to be polished. When adhesives are used for bonding, the interface strength is low, and it is easy to cause the quality risk of bulging and debonding, and the production efficiency is low. In order to solve the problem of low interface strength and the quality risk of bulging and debonding, the existing technology uses vulcanization bonding method for processing, but after vulcanization, the bonding interface with the shell is poor, and the bonding surface needs to be polished, which leads to the problem of low production efficiency.
