Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fragile covers, and in particular relates to a composite material fragile cover and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The frangible cover is an important component of the launch tube of an aircraft, and has a direct impact on the reliability and rapid response capability of the launch. When designing the frangible cover, it must meet the requirements of airtightness, electromagnetic shielding performance, and the ability to open quickly and reliably during launch. Due to the excellent mechanical properties, anisotropy, and designability of composite materials, it has become one of the preferred materials for making frangible covers. In recent years, a variety of frangible cover forms have emerged.

[0003] The Chinese invention patent with publication number CN102313491A discloses a method for manufacturing an integral top-breaking composite launch box cover. A fragile cover including a frame and a frame is prepared through three-time curing molding. During launch, the fragile cover breaks as a whole to make way for the passage. The fragile cover needs to be cured three times. The structure includes tic-tac-toe-shaped wooden strips, polyurethane foam, aluminum embedded parts, and glass fiber cloth. The manufacturing process is relatively complicated and the process flow is long.

[0004] The Chinese invention patent with publication number CN110806151A discloses a fragile front cover of an aircraft and a method for preparing the same. The method uses a compression molding injection molding process to manufacture a reinforcement layer, and then uses a foaming process to manufacture a front cover body on the upper end surface of the reinforcement layer, polishes the upper end surface of the front cover body and sprays a heat-resistant coating, and finally manufactures a sealing gasket, wherein the reinforcement layer material is glass fiber cloth. The preparation of the fragile cover requires two molding processes, compression molding injection molding and foaming, respectively, and the molding process is relatively complicated.

[0005] The Chinese invention patent with publication number CN1844840A discloses a fragile composite film cover, which is made of high-strength glass fiber cloth and epoxy resin, with the fiber directions laid at 0° and 90°, cross notches pre-made in the weak area and high-strength wires laid to ensure that the film can crack in four petals at the same time. However, the fragile composite film cover cannot be broken along the circumferential direction, and is only suitable for launch tubes with low alignment requirements, and its scope of application is relatively limited.

[0006] The Chinese invention patent with publication number CN107932817A discloses a top-breaking epoxy plastic fragile cover and its preparation method. The fragile cover is in the shape of a round arch, and the main body is made of epoxy foam plastic. The structure is relatively simple and can be broken at the root. However, the epoxy foam adopts physical foaming, that is, adding inorganic hollow fillers. Since the hollow fillers have a low density, they will float up during the curing process, resulting in uneven density in the direction of gravity, thereby affecting the pressure bearing and crushing performance of the fragile cover, so the control requirements of the process are relatively high.

[0007] In summary, the existing methods for making fragile covers generally have problems such as complex preparation process and strict process control, which leads to high cost of fragile covers. Although some fragile covers have simple structures, they have a narrow scope of application. In addition, domestic research institutions and enterprises have conducted little research on the integrity of fragile covers, and there is still much room for improvement in the integrity of fragile covers. Summary of the invention

[0010] The raw materials of the fragile cover body include fiber woven cloth, sandwich felt and epoxy resin matrix.

[0011] Furthermore, the fragile cover body includes a middle area and an annular area, the middle area includes a rectangular cross groove and four equally divided middle sector areas divided by the rectangular cross groove, the annular area includes an annular flange area, an oblique V-shaped annular groove is opened on the annular surface in the annular flange area, and a plurality of annular circular mounting holes are evenly arranged in the annular flange area.

[0012] Furthermore, the two end surfaces of the fragile cover body are respectively provided with an outer surface annular groove and an inner surface annular groove, and a pressure plate and a bottom plate are respectively installed on the outer surface annular groove and the inner surface annular groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the diameter of the outer surface annular groove is 1 to 3 mm larger than the diameter of the inner surface annular groove, the inner diameter of the pressure plate is consistent with the outer surface annular groove, and the diameter of the bottom plate is the same as the inner surface annular groove.

[0014] Furthermore, the pressing plate and the bottom plate are made of aluminum alloy or low carbon steel.

[0015] A method for preparing a composite material fragile cover comprises the following steps:

[0016] Step 1: Cutting fiber woven fabric and chopped fiber mat;

[0017] Step 2: laying the cut fiber woven fabric and the chopped fiber mat on the mold bottom plate in sequence, and evenly scraping the resin layer by layer to make the resin completely saturate the fiber woven fabric or the chopped fiber mat;

[0018] Step 3: Cover the mold cover, push it into the molding machine, and heat press to cure;

[0019] Step 4: After curing, demould after natural cooling;

[0020] Step 5: Process the shape, circular mounting holes and rectangular cross grooves on a CNC milling machine, and process the oblique V-shaped annular grooves on a CNC lathe.

[0021] Furthermore, the fiber woven fabric in step one is one of glass fiber, carbon fiber, and aramid fiber 0° / 90° woven fabric, which is respectively laid on the inner and outer surfaces of the composite material fragile cover; the chopped fiber felt material is selected from chopped glass fiber felt, carbon fiber felt, and nylon felt.

[0022] Furthermore, the resin in step 2 is one of epoxy resin, unsaturated resin or vinyl resin, preferably epoxy resin.

[0023] Furthermore, in the step three, the molding pressure is 0.2-2 MPa, the curing temperature is room temperature-200° C., and the curing time is 1-24 h, preferably 0.5 MPa and 90° C. for 3 h.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: epoxy resin, fiber woven cloth and chopped fiber felt are selected as the raw materials for the fragile cover body, and grooves of special shapes are prefabricated on both sides of the fragile cover. The strength and continuity of the fiber woven cloth are utilized to ensure that the fragile cover is broken into four uniform and complete pieces after being impacted, and the flange area is intact. Different from traditional woven cloth as sandwich material, since the chopped fiber felt is approximately isotropic on the plane, there are no residual burrs after fracture, and the fracture strength is also stable. In addition, the cross-section of the annular groove adopts an oblique V-shape, which can control the flushness of the flange after fracture to within 0.4mm. The composite fragile cover of the present invention only needs one-time curing and molding, and has a simple molding process, superior performance, good stability, and good prospects for promotion and application.
