[0001] The invention relates to the field of composite material manufacturing and processing, and in particular to a horizontal bonding molding process method for a leading edge wave absorbing component. Background Art

[0002] Composite materials optimize the combination of material components with different properties through advanced material preparation technology. They have the characteristics of high specific strength, high specific modulus, good fatigue resistance, strong fracture resistance, good corrosion resistance, light weight and simple processing. Their unique performance advantages have made composite materials widely used in the aviation field.

[0003] At present, the conventional manufacturing route of composite materials is to first manufacture sub-components through composite molding tooling. The method used for honeycomb bonding of functional structural parts is vertical bonding. During vertical bonding, the honeycomb cannot be subjected to pressure in the L and W directions, but needs to be limited in pressure in the T direction. This results in inaccurate positioning of the honeycomb and the middle functional layer, resulting in low product performance and qualified rate, and high scrap rate. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a horizontal bonding molding process method for leading edge absorbing components to solve the problems of inaccurate honeycomb positioning and inaccurate positioning of the middle functional layer during vertical bonding in the prior art, resulting in low product performance, low pass rate and high scrap rate.

S2: Lay the reflector mold body horizontally, use pins to position the reflector mold body, assemble the gluing tooling, place the processed honeycomb core to fit the reflector, put the functional layer and the adhesive film on the reflector, and after the functional layer and the reflector are overlapped in place, put the other half of the honeycomb; S3: Use positioning pins to assemble the honeycomb block of the bonding tooling, confirm that the three reference surfaces of the honeycomb core are flush with the plane of the tooling block, put on the equalizing plate, and bag and solidify to form.

[0006] Furthermore, after executing step S3, the method further includes: Remove the honeycomb block, install the reflector mold lifting frame, use the lifting tool to lift the mold from horizontal to vertical, transfer the mold to the machine for honeycomb core external surface processing, after the processing is completed, install the mold on the frame, insert the positioning pins and fastening screws, at this time the reflector mold is vertical, and the subsequent skin bonding is performed vertically Furthermore, in step S2, screws and positioning pins are used to fix the reflector assembly on the adhesive assembly frame, and the positioning pins are inserted to ensure that the reflector assembly is in place.

[0007] Furthermore, the inner profile of the honeycomb core matches the outer profile of the reflector, and the outer profile of the honeycomb core is a regular rectangular parallelepiped structure, so that the honeycomb is only compressed in the T direction during horizontal bonding.

[0008] Furthermore, after the reflective plate and the intermediate functional layer are formed on the male mold forming tool in the step S1, the step further includes: cutting the intermediate functional layer to a net size.

[0009] Furthermore, the positioning holes in step (1) are 4 positioning holes with a diameter of 8 mm.
