Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of composite material forming, and in particular to a splicing structure of a carbon-skinned aluminum honeycomb sandwich panel and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Honeycomb sandwich structure is a composite material composed of three basic materials: upper and lower skins, honeycomb core and adhesive. Honeycomb sandwich structure has the characteristics of high specific strength and specific stiffness, good fatigue resistance and excellent designability, and is widely used in the aerospace field. When the size of the composite material structure becomes larger and larger, the width or length of the skin material will be insufficient and need to be spliced to meet the product size requirements.
[0003] For the preparation of large-sized carbon-skinned aluminum honeycomb sandwich structure products, there are two main existing technical solutions:
[0004] One is to use the hot melt method to prepare pre-impregnated non-woven fabric. The length of the pre-impregnated non-woven fabric is not limited, and large-sized carbon skins can be laid as a whole without splicing. Specifically, the hot melt method refers to a method of heating and melting the resin into a flowing state and using it to impregnate fibers or fabrics. There are two main methods for preparing pre-impregnated non-woven fabrics by the hot melt method: a one-step method and a two-step method. The one-step method requires good fluidity of the resin matrix and is mainly used to prepare narrow-band pre-impregnated non-woven fabrics. The prepared material has a low resin content and poor product quality; the two-step method can accurately control the glue content in the prepreg, and the volatile content is low. The hot melt method requires the use of high-temperature and high-pressure equipment and melting equipment to prepare prepregs, and the equipment use and maintenance costs are high. Although the hot melt method can achieve the preparation of long prepregs, it requires large-sized process templates and large-sized curing equipment when laying large-sized carbon skins. The quality control and curing costs during the overall skin molding process are relatively large, which does not meet the current product cost reduction and efficiency improvement requirements.
[0005] Another method is to splice the pre-impregnated non-woven fabric of the carbon skin, stagger the seams of each layer, and enlarge the skin size by splicing during the laying process. The fault splicing in the carbon skin laying process needs to consider the stress concentration and the residual strength after the fault splicing. Many scholars at home and abroad have conducted mechanical analysis and experimental verification on composite materials with spliced plies, and obtained the conclusion that the shorter the length of the staggered splicing of the plies, the higher the degree of local stress concentration, and the failure mode of the tensile spliced laminate containing plies is interlaminar shear failure and fiber fracture. When the laminated material containing spliced plies is subjected to external loads, it is easy to cause single-layer failure at the splicing seam and induce crack propagation, resulting in a reduction in the actual mechanical properties of the structural parts. Summary of the invention
[0006] The present invention aims to solve one of the technical problems in the related art at least to a certain extent.
[0007] To this end, the present invention proposes a splicing structure of a carbon skin aluminum honeycomb sandwich panel and a preparation method thereof, designs reinforcement at the skin splicing position, and designs the process parameters of the honeycomb sandwich panel to ensure the molding quality of the sandwich structure after the skin splicing, ensure that the flatness, mechanical properties and environmental adaptability of the entire panel meet the requirements, and greatly reduce the product manufacturing cost.

[0043] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. The present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0044] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the disclosed solution, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only embodiments of a part of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0045] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 The first aspect of the present invention provides a splicing structure of a carbon skin aluminum honeycomb sandwich panel, which is connected between two adjacent carbon skin aluminum honeycomb sandwich panels. Each carbon skin aluminum honeycomb sandwich panel includes a main honeycomb 3 and a segmented carbon skin 1 fixed to the upper and lower sides of the main honeycomb 3 by an adhesive film 5. The joint between the two adjacent segmented carbon skins 1 is consistent with the length direction of the carbon skin aluminum honeycomb sandwich panel. The splicing structure of this embodiment includes:
[0046] The honeycomb 4 at the joint is located between the main honeycombs 3 of two adjacent carbon-skinned aluminum honeycomb sandwich panels, and the upper and lower surfaces of the main honeycombs 3 located on both sides of the honeycomb 4 at the same joint are flush with each other;
[0047] The inner reinforcing skin 2 is fixed to the upper and lower sides of the honeycomb 4 at the joint by means of adhesive films 5, and the surfaces of the inner reinforcing skin 2 on the upper and lower sides facing away from the honeycomb 4 at the joint are flush with the upper and lower surfaces of the main honeycomb 3 respectively, the center of the inner reinforcing skin 2 is located at the joint of the two adjacent segmented carbon skins 1, and the inner reinforcing skin 2 is fixed to the segmented carbon skins 1 by means of adhesive films 5;
[0048] The foam strip 6 is filled in the gap between the main honeycomb 3 and the honeycomb 4 at the joint to seal and bond the two together.
[0049] In some embodiments, the segmented carbon skin 1 and the inner reinforcement skin 2 are both laminated structural parts formed using carbon fiber prepreg, and are located on the upper and lower surfaces of the sandwich panel.
[0050] The number of blocks and the size of a single block of the segmented carbon skin 1 should be determined according to the size of the carbon fiber prepreg and the size of the carbon skin aluminum honeycomb sandwich panel. When the size of the carbon skin aluminum honeycomb sandwich panel is larger than the size of the carbon fiber prepreg, the carbon skin needs to be divided into 2 or more blocks, and the size of a single block should be evenly divided on the premise that it is not larger than the size of the carbon fiber prepreg.
[0051] For the inner reinforced skin 2, the thickness and size of the inner reinforced skin 2 should be determined according to the parameters of the adhesive used and the skin material parameters. Specifically: based on the principle that the bonding shear failure load of the adhesive at the splicing reinforcement position of the segmented carbon skin when the carbon skin aluminum honeycomb sandwich panel is tensilely damaged is greater than the tensile failure load of the segmented carbon skin, the tensile strength of the segmented carbon skin 1 is taken as σ f , the thickness of the block carbon skin 1 is t f The segmented carbon skin 1 is spliced in the length direction, that is, the splicing seam is perpendicular to the length direction of the segmented carbon skin 1, and the width of the segmented carbon skin 1 is b f ; The shear strength of the adhesive is σ; the inner reinforced skin 2 and the segmented carbon skin 1 are made of the same material and process. The thickness of the inner reinforced skin 2 is t1. To facilitate the process operation, t1 is generally taken to be the same thickness as the segmented carbon skin 1. The width of the inner reinforced skin 2 on one side of the joint is b1, that is, the width of the inner reinforced skin 2 is 2×b1. According to σ×b1×t1×b f ≥σ f ×t f ×b f The width of the inner reinforcing skin 2 is preliminarily calculated as 2×b1, and the length of the inner reinforcing skin 2 needs to completely cover the length of the splicing seam.
[0052] The number of plies and the ply angle of the segmented carbon skin 1 and the inner reinforcement skin 2 should be determined based on the structural design and mechanical analysis of the carbon skin aluminum honeycomb sandwich panel.
[0053] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the thickness of the segmented carbon skin 1 is 0.5 mm, the tensile strength of the segmented carbon skin 1 is 400 MPa, the shear strength of the adhesive is 10 MPa, the thickness t1 of the inner reinforced skin 2 is 0.5 mm, and the calculation shows that the width on both sides of the splicing seam is 40 mm, and the width of the inner reinforced skin 2 is 80 mm. The carbon fiber prepreg flat cloth is cut according to the laying angle of the carbon skin, and 4 layers are laid on the process board. The laying angles are [0 / +45 / 90 / -45] from bottom to top. After laying, vacuum packaging is carried out and cured in an autoclave to obtain the cured segmented carbon skin 1 and the inner reinforced skin 2.
[0054] In some embodiments, the main honeycomb 3 and the honeycomb 4 at the joint are both the middle sandwich layer of the sandwich plate, the main honeycomb 3 is located between the upper and lower block carbon skins 1, and the honeycomb 4 at the joint is located between the upper and lower inner reinforcement skins 2; the adhesive film 5 is located between the block carbon skin 1 and the main honeycomb 3, between the block carbon skin 1 and the inner reinforcement skin 2, and between the inner reinforcement skin 2 and the honeycomb 4 at the joint, and the upper, middle and lower integral structure is formed by adhesive bonding. Let the height of the main honeycomb 3 be H1; calculate the height of the honeycomb 4 at the joint according to the thickness of the inner reinforcement skin 2 and the thickness of the adhesive film 5, take the thickness of the inner reinforcement skin 2 as t1, the thickness of the adhesive film 5 as h2, and assume that the compression ratio of the adhesive film 5 after curing to its original thickness is δ, then the height H2 of the honeycomb 4 at the joint is calculated according to H2=H1-2×t1-2×h2×δ, and the main honeycomb 3 and the honeycomb 4 at the joint need to be pulled apart into a regular hexagonal form.
[0055] In some embodiments, the foam strip 6 is located between the main honeycomb 3 and the honeycomb 4 at the joint, connecting the two honeycombs; the foam stick 7 is located in the honeycomb core cells in the main honeycomb 3 and the honeycomb 4 at the joint, and is used to fill the honeycomb core cell cavity. Two honeycomb cells are compressed on one side of the main honeycomb 3 in contact with the inner reinforcement skin 2; two honeycomb cells are compressed on both sides of the honeycomb 4 at the joint in contact with the segmented carbon skin 1.
