During use, the upper mold is flipped and buckled on the lower mold, so that the forming grooves on the upper mold are arranged opposite to the forming grooves on the lower mold, and the mounting grooves on the upper mold are arranged opposite to the mounting grooves on the lower mold. And after the upper mold and the lower mold are closely fitted to complete the mold closing to form an outer mold, the forming grooves of the upper mold and the forming grooves of the lower mold enclose to form a relatively closed molding cavity with a preset shape and size. Similarly, the mounting grooves of the upper mold and the mounting grooves of the lower mold enclose to form a mounting channel, and then the molding cavity communicates with the external environment of the outer mold through the mounting channel.
[0059] Correspondingly, the molding die is also equipped with a core mold. The outer wall of the tubular composite part to be achieved by the upper and lower molds can be formed into the preset shape and size. At the same time, the inner wall of the tubular composite part to be achieved by the support of the core mold can be formed. In order to ensure the quality of the inner wall surface of the tubular composite part prepared using the molding die, in the core mold, the core mold body adopts a rod-shaped structure or a tubular structure with the same shape as the inner wall of the pre-prepared tubular composite part, and the size is N times the structure of the inner cavity mold of the pre-prepared tubular composite part, and N is less than 1, that is, the core mold body Compared with the structure molded out of the inner cavity of the pre-prepared tubular composite part mentioned above, it is a structure scaled down according to a preset ratio, and is used to be inserted inside the tubular composite part to support it.

[0060] Correspondingly, the molding die is equipped with a ventilation component, which is a tubular structure, and the inner cavity of the ventilation component is the above-mentioned guide channel. When in use, the ventilation component is embedded in the installation channel, and the end of the ventilation component extending to the inner side of the molding die is plugged into the matching vacuum bag, so that the guide channel of the ventilation component is connected with the inner cavity of the vacuum bag. The end of the ventilation component extending to the outside of the molding die is open, so that it can be connected to the vacuum system through the outer end located outside the outer mold, so that the ventilation component can evacuate the vacuum bag, that is, perform the above-mentioned vacuum bag pressure treatment. When in use, the vacuum bag pressure treatment is performed before the mold is closed, that is, the vacuum bag is evacuated. Because when demolding, after the vacuum bag is vented, it is easier to pull the core mold body out of the vacuum bag, and then the vacuum bag can also be easily pulled out of the tubular composite part, that is, the core mold in the molding die is easier to separate from the tubular composite part, and the inner surface quality of the tubular composite part prepared using the molding die is higher.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0078] The present application provides a forming mold for a tubular composite part, including an upper mold 1, a lower mold 2, a core mold 3, and a ventilation assembly 4. Among them, both the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 have a forming groove 11 and a mounting groove 12. When the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 are closed to form an outer mold, the forming groove 11 of the upper mold 1 and the forming groove 11 of the lower mold 2 enclose a forming cavity, and the mounting groove 12 of the upper mold 1 and the mounting groove 12 of the lower mold 2 enclose a mounting channel, and the mounting channel communicates with the forming cavity and the external environment of the outer mold. The core mold 3 includes a core mold body 31 and a vacuum bag 32. The vacuum bag 32 is coated on the core mold body 31, and the core mold 3 is used to fill the inner cavity of the tubular composite part 6 and form the internal structure of the tubular composite part 6. The ventilation assembly 4 has a diversion channel, and the diversion channel is communicated with the inner cavity of the vacuum bag 32. The tail end of the ventilation assembly 4 and / or the bag mouth of the vacuum bag 32 can be sleeved in the mounting channel, so that the head end of the ventilation assembly 4 is located outside the outer mold, so as to be able to perform vacuum bag pressing treatment through the ventilation assembly 4.
[0079] Specifically, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, forming grooves 11 are respectively provided at the middle positions on the upper sides of the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2, and mounting grooves 12 are respectively provided at the peripheral positions on the upper sides of the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2. The inner ends of the mounting grooves 12 extending towards the inner side of the forming mold are communicated with the forming grooves 11 on the upper mold 1 or the lower mold 2 where they are located, and the outer ends penetrate through the peripheral walls of the upper mold 1 or the lower mold 2 where they are located to communicate with the peripheral surface environment of the upper mold 1 or the lower mold 2 where they are located. During use, flip the upper mold 1 in the orientation shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 and buckle it on the upper surface of the lower mold 2, so that the forming groove 11 on the upper surface of the upper mold 1 is arranged opposite to the forming groove 11 on the upper surface of the lower mold 2, and the mounting groove 12 on the upper surface of the upper mold 1 is arranged opposite to the mounting groove 12 on the upper surface of the lower mold 2, and Figure 1 and Figure 2 the upper surface of the upper mold 1 shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 is tightly fitted with the upper surface of the lower mold 2 shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 to complete the mold closing to form an outer mold. Then, the forming groove 11 of the upper mold 1 and the forming groove 11 of the lower mold 2 enclose a relatively closed forming cavity with a preset shape and size. Similarly, the mounting groove 12 of the upper mold 1 and the mounting groove 12 of the lower mold 2 enclose a mounting channel, and the forming cavity communicates with the external environment of the outer mold through the mounting channel.
[0080] Correspondingly, the molding die is also equipped with a core mold 3. The outer wall of the tubular composite part 6 can be formed into the preset shape and size through the restriction of the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2. At the same time, the inner wall of the tubular composite part 6 can be formed into the preset shape and size through the support of the core mold 3. In order to ensure the quality of the inner wall surface of the tubular composite part 6 prepared using the molding die, in the core mold 3, the core mold body 31 adopts a rod-shaped structure or a tubular structure with the same shape as the inner wall of the pre-prepared tubular composite part 6, and the size is N times that of the structure of the inner cavity inverted mold of the pre-prepared tubular composite part 6, and N is less than 1, that is, the core mold body 31 is relatively The structure molded out of the inner cavity of the pre-prepared tubular composite part 6 is reduced in size according to a preset ratio and is used to be inserted into the interior of the tubular composite part 6 to support it. The vacuum bag 32 is evenly coated on the periphery of the core mold body 31. The core mold body 31 and the vacuum bag 32 that are sleeved together form a complete core mold 3. When in use, the fiber prepreg for preparing the tubular composite part 6 is laid and wrapped on the periphery of the core mold 3, and then the core mold 3 and the fiber prepreg structure coated on its periphery are placed in the molding groove 11 of the lower mold 2, and then the upper mold 1 is buckled on the lower mold 2 to achieve mold closing, and the tubular composite part 6 can be obtained after curing.
[0081] In cooperation, the molding die is equipped with a ventilation component 4, which is a tubular structure, and the inner cavity of the ventilation component 4 is the above-mentioned guide channel. When in use, the ventilation component 4 is embedded in the installation channel, and the end of the ventilation component 4 extending to the inner side of the molding die is plugged into the vacuum bag 32, so that the guide channel of the ventilation component 4 is connected with the inner cavity of the vacuum bag 32, and the end of the ventilation component 4 extending to the outer side of the molding die is open, so that the vacuum system can be connected through the outer end located outside the outer mold to realize the vacuum bag 32. , that is, the above-mentioned vacuum bag pressing treatment is carried out. When in use, the vacuum bag pressing treatment is carried out before the mold is closed, that is, the vacuum bag 32 is evacuated. Since the vacuum bag 32 is de-vacuated during demoulding, in some specific embodiments, the core mold body 31 can be easily drawn out of the vacuum bag 32, and then the vacuum bag 32 can also be easily pulled out of the tubular composite part 6, that is, the core mold 3 in the molding mold can be easily separated from the tubular composite part 6, and the inner surface quality of the tubular composite part 6 prepared using the molding mold is higher.
[0082] On the basis of the above embodiment, the number of mounting channels is two, one mounting channel is conductively connected to one end of the same molding cavity, and the other mounting channel is conductively connected to the other end of the same molding cavity.
[0083] A long strip molding cavity is equipped with two installation channels, specifically, Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure, the left end of the forming cavity is connected to the external environment of the mold through the left installation channel, and the right end of the forming cavity is connected to the external environment of the mold through the right installation channel. During use, ventilation components 4 are connected to both the left end and the right end of the vacuum bag 32, and the two sets of ventilation components 4 are respectively arranged in the corresponding installation channels. When controlling the internal air pressure of the vacuum bag 32, the internal air pressure can be adjusted from left to right through the left ventilation component 4, and the internal air pressure of the vacuum bag 32 can be adjusted from right to left through the right ventilation component 4. Therefore, the stability and uniformity of the air pressure adjustment of the vacuum bag are relatively high, which is beneficial to ensuring the quality of the tubular composite part 6 and improving the efficiency of preparing the tubular composite part 6.
[0084] On the basis of the above embodiment, the ventilation component 4 includes a nozzle 41, a ventilation pipe 42, a ventilation fixing nut 43, and an internal positioning ring 44. The ventilation pipe 42 is threadedly connected and inserted into one end of the ventilation fixing nut 43, and the internal positioning ring 44 is threadedly connected and inserted into the other end of the ventilation fixing nut 43. The tail end of the nozzle 41 is connected to the ventilation pipe 42, and the internal cavity of the nozzle 41, the internal cavity of the ventilation pipe 42, the internal cavity of the fixing nut 43, and the internal cavity of the internal positioning ring 44 are sequentially connected to form a diversion channel. The internal positioning ring 44 is used to connect to the vacuum bag 32. The installation channel is a variable-diameter through hole, and the internal positioning ring 44 can be nested in the variable-diameter section of the installation channel to position the core mold 3.
[0085] Specifically, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, taking the left ventilation component 4 as an example for illustration, in the ventilation component 4, the ventilation fixing nut 43 has a structure with internal threads machined on its inner wall. Correspondingly, the outer wall of the left end of the internal positioning ring 44 is machined with threads to be inserted into the right end of the ventilation fixing nut 43 and threadedly connected to the ventilation fixing nut 43. Moreover, the outer part of the right end of the ventilation pipe 42 is also machined with threads to be inserted into the left end of the ventilation fixing nut 43 and threadedly connected to the ventilation fixing nut 43. The nozzle 41 is directly connected to the pipeline for external vacuum treatment, such as the pipeline connected to a vacuum pump, etc., and the right end of the nozzle 41 is connected to the left end of the ventilation pipe 42. With such a setting, the structure of the ventilation component 4 is simple, convenient for assembly, and convenient for connecting the pipeline for vacuum treatment.
[0086] Furthermore, the installation channel is a variable-diameter through hole, and the cross-sectional dimension of the part of the hole of the installation channel located inside the forming mold is smaller or larger than the remaining holes of the installation channel. During use, the internal positioning ring 44 is fitted into the hole section where the cross-sectional dimension of the installation channel is reduced or increased, so that the two sets of ventilation components 4 can be positioned, and thereby the core mold 3 connected by the two sets of ventilation components 4 can be positioned.
[0087] In some specific embodiments, the gas nozzle 41 is micro-beam plasma welded to the ventilation pipe 42. The gap between the ventilation pipe 42 and the ventilation fixing nut 43 which are inserted and matched with each other is filled with sealant, and the gap between the ventilation fixing nut 43 and the internal positioning ring 44 which are inserted and matched with each other is filled with sealant. When in use, the internal positioning ring 44 is bonded to the vacuum bag 32 with strong glue.
[0088] On the basis of the above embodiments, the number of the forming grooves 11 of the upper die 1 and the number of the forming grooves 11 of the lower die 2 are both greater than or equal to two. After the lower die 2 and the upper die 1 are clamped, a number of the forming grooves 11 of the upper die 1 and the corresponding forming grooves 11 of the lower die 2 enclose to form a forming cavity; and a number of the forming grooves 11 of the upper die 1 extend along the length direction of the upper die 1 and are arranged along the width direction of the upper die 1; a number of the forming grooves 11 of the lower die 2 extend along the length direction of the lower die 2 and are arranged along the width direction of the lower die 2.
[0089] Specifically, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, both the upper die 1 and the lower die 2 are provided with a number of forming grooves 11. The forming grooves 11 extend along the length direction of the upper die 1 or the lower die 1 where they are located, and a number of the forming grooves 11 are arranged along the length direction of the upper die 1 or the lower die 1 where they are located. Then, after the upper die 1 and the lower die 2 are clamped, a number of forming cavities can be enclosed. With such a setting, the structure of the forming die is simple, the layout is reasonable, and it is beneficial to improve the preparation efficiency of the tubular composite part 6.
[0090] Further, in some specific embodiments, a temperature detector 5 is inserted into the upper die 1. The detection head of the temperature detector 5 abuts against the cavity wall of the forming cavity for detecting the temperature of the cavity wall of the forming cavity.
[0091] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, an installation hole is formed on the upper die 1 to insert the temperature detector 5. The detection head of the temperature detector 5 extends into the interior of the upper die 1 and abuts against the cavity wall of the forming cavity to detect the temperature inside the forming cavity.
[0092] Further, in some specific embodiments, one of the lower die 2 and the upper die 1 has an installation through hole 13, and the other has a threaded hole 21. After the lower die 2 and the upper die 1 are clamped, a number of the installation through holes 13 and the corresponding threaded holes 21 extend coaxially for inserting threaded fasteners.
[0093] As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, one of the mounting through holes 13 and threaded holes 21 is provided on the upper mold 1. Correspondingly, the other of the mounting through holes 13 and threaded holes 21 is provided on the lower mold 2. During use, after the upper mold 1 is buckled on the lower mold 2, a threaded fastener with an external thread is inserted into the coaxial mounting through hole 13 and threaded hole 21 to realize the mold closing of the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2.
[0094] Furthermore, in some specific embodiments, one of the lower mold 2 and the upper mold 1 has a mold closing locating pin 22, and the other has a mold closing locating pin hole 14. After the lower mold 2 and the upper mold 1 are closed, a plurality of mold closing locating pins 22 can be inserted into the corresponding mold closing locating pin holes 14.
[0095] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, one of the mold closing locating pin 22 and the mold closing locating pin hole 14 is provided on the upper mold 1. Correspondingly, the other of the mold closing locating pin 22 and the mold closing locating pin hole 14 is provided on the lower mold 2. When the upper mold 1 needs to be buckled on the lower mold 2, by observing the positions of the mold closing locating pin 22 and the mold closing locating pin hole 14, a plurality of mold closing locating pins 22 are inserted into the corresponding mold closing locating pin holes 14, and then the positioning of the upper mold 1 can be realized, and thus the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 can be conveniently fixed.
[0096] Furthermore, in some specific embodiments, the outer periphery of the upper mold 1 or the lower mold 2 has a mold opening flat groove 23 for inserting a mold opener to pry open the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2.
[0097] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a mold opening flat groove 23 is provided at the top corner or the middle position around the lower mold 2 or the upper mold 1. The mold opening flat groove 23 can be a triangular groove or a rectangular groove, etc. During use, the head end of a mold opener such as a crowbar or a forklift is inserted into the mold opening flat groove 23, and a thrust along the buckling direction of the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 is applied, and then the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 can be pried open. With such a setting, the demolding of the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2 is facilitated.
[0098] Furthermore, in some specific embodiments, the lower mold 2 has a glue overflow groove 24 which communicates with the molding cavity and is used for discharging the composite material overflowing from the molding cavity.
[0099] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a linear or curved glue overflow groove 24 is provided on the lower mold 2. The end of the glue overflow groove 24 extending towards the outer periphery of the lower mold 2 penetrates the outer wall of the lower mold 2, and the end of the glue overflow groove 24 extending towards the central position of the lower mold 2 penetrates the wall of the molding groove 11 on the upper surface of the lower mold 2. Then, the excessive resin in the molding cavity can be discharged from the molding cavity through the glue overflow groove 24 to ensure the molding quality of the tubular composite part 6.
[0100] Furthermore, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in some specific embodiments, the peripheral wall of the lower mold 2 has a plurality of lifting ring threaded holes 25. During use, the tail end of the lifting ring is inserted into the lifting ring threaded hole 25, and the lifting ring is threadedly connected to the lower mold 2. Then, the lifting ring can be used to hoist and transfer the mold and the tubular composite part 6 inside it.
[0101] In addition to the forming mold for the tubular composite part described above, the present application also provides a molding process method for preparing the tubular composite part 6 by using the forming mold disclosed in the above embodiments. The molding process method includes the following steps:
[0102] Step S1: Pretreat the cavity wall of the forming cavity of the forming mold for the tubular composite part to meet the requirements for forming the external structure of the tubular composite part 6;
[0103] And wrap the vacuum bag 32 around the outside of the core mold body 31;
[0104] It can be understood that this step is to make preparations before manufacturing the part. Specifically, to ensure the cleanliness of the cavity wall of the forming cavity for the tubular composite part 6, the cavity wall of the forming cavity is pre-cleaned to ensure the quality of the outer wall of the tubular composite part 6; and the vacuum bag 32 is sleeved on the outside of the core mold body 31 to form a complete core mold 3;
[0105] Step S2: Lay fiber prepregs on the outer periphery of the core mold 3 to form a pre-treated formed part;
[0106] It can be understood that this step is to pre-treat the fiber prepregs in the raw materials, that is, the fiber prepregs are laid and wound around the circumferential surface of the core mold 3 in sequence and evenly to form a tubular pre-treated formed part with a certain thickness and having a plurality of fiber laminations. Then, the pre-treated formed part is supported by the core mold 3;
[0107] Step S3: Place the pre-treated formed part in the forming cavity, and then, close and fix the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2;
[0108] It can be understood that in this step, the core mold 3 and the pre-treated formed part sleeved on its outside are placed in the forming cavity of the forming mold, and a closing operation is performed. During the forming process, the shape and volume of the tubular composite part 6 are jointly restricted by the upper mold 1, the lower mold 2, and the core mold 3 to ensure that the tubular composite part 6 is an integral structure without delamination;
[0109] Step S4: Perform vacuum bag pressing treatment;
[0110] It is understandable that in this step, the vacuum bag pressing treatment refers to evacuating the vacuum bag 32. After this treatment, the vacuum bag 32 will tightly adhere to the circumferential surface of the mandrel body 31, which is beneficial to ensuring the shape of the inner wall surface of the tubular composite part 6 formed by the support of the mandrel 3;
[0111] Furthermore, to ensure the smooth separation of the mandrel 3 and the tubular composite part 6, during the vacuum bag pressing treatment, the order of auxiliary material wrapping is, from the inside to the outside, the release cloth, the non-porous isolation film, the breather felt, and the vacuum bag 32.
[0112] Step S5: Transfer the closed molding die to a hot pressing and curing device for curing treatment;
[0113] It is understandable that after completing the raw material treatment and the preparation of the molding die through the above steps, this step sends the molding die and the pre-treated molded part inside it into the hot pressing and curing device together, so that the pre-treated molded part is cured to form the final tubular composite part 6 through the pressurization and heating of the hot pressing and curing device;
[0114] Step S6: Disassemble the taken-out molding die, and then take out the tubular composite part 6 from the molding die;
[0115] It is understandable that this step takes out the cured molding die from the hot pressing and curing device, and then performs the mold opening operation, that is, separating the upper mold 1 and the lower mold 2. Then, take out the tubular composite part 6 from the molding cavity, and separate the tubular composite part 6 from the mandrel 3 to realize the demolding of the tubular composite part 6.
[0116] The internal and external surface qualities of the tubular composite part 6 prepared by this molding process method are guaranteed, and it has extremely high strength and hardness, excellent compressive resistance and anti-bending resistance, an extremely long service life, and great industrial operation and maintenance value.
[0117] On the basis of the above embodiments, after step S6, the following steps are further included:
[0118] Step S7: Pretreat the cavity wall of the molding cavity again to meet the requirements for the external structure molding of the tubular composite part 6; It is understandable that after the tubular composite part 6 is prepared using the molding die, the surface of the molding die is cleaned to prepare for the next preparation of the tubular composite part 6.
[0119] On the basis of the above embodiments, step S4 includes the following steps:
[0120] Step S41: Check the airtightness of the vacuum bag 32. It can be understood that before the vacuum pumping process, the airtightness of the vacuum bag 32 is checked first to ensure the airtightness of the vacuum bag 32 to be used. Then, after the subsequent vacuum pumping process, the vacuum bag 32 can maintain the vacuum degree, effectively avoiding the failure of the vacuum bag 32.
[0121] Step S42: Connect a pressure detector, a vacuum pumping valve, and a vacuum pump to the bag opening of the vacuum bag 32, and the inner cavity of the vacuum bag 32, the pressure detector, the vacuum pumping valve, and the vacuum pump are connected in sequence. It can be understood that a vacuum pump is connected to the bag opening of the vacuum bag 32, and the inlet of the vacuum pump is communicated with the inner cavity of the vacuum bag 32 to be able to pump vacuum for the vacuum bag 32. A pressure detector and a vacuum pumping valve are arranged between the vacuum pump and the vacuum bag 32. The pressure detector can adopt a pressure gauge or a pressure sensor, etc., and the vacuum pumping valve can adopt a switch valve or a stop valve, etc. Among them, the pressure detector is located on the side close to the vacuum bag 32, and the vacuum pumping valve is located on the side close to the vacuum pump. Then, the opening and closing of the opening at the bag opening of the vacuum bag 32 can be controlled through the vacuum pumping valve. At the same time, regardless of the opening and closing of the vacuum pumping valve, the pressure in the vacuum bag 32, that is, the vacuum degree of the vacuum bag 32, can be detected through the pressure detector.
[0122] Optionally, two vacuum pumping valves are provided, which are respectively placed on the left and right sides of the molding die, and are both about 40 mm - 60 mm away from the molding die.
[0123] Step S43: Open the vacuum pumping valve and start the vacuum pump to perform the vacuum pumping process. It can be understood that after the layout of the pipeline connected to the vacuum bag 32 is completed, the vacuum pumping can be started to meet the requirements.
[0124] Step S44: After the pressure detector detects that the vacuum bag 32 of the vacuum bag 32 reaches the preset vacuum degree, close the vacuum pumping valve. It can be understood that during the vacuum pumping process, the detection result of the pressure detector is read in real time through the pressure detector to learn the pressure in the vacuum bag 32 in real time. Then, it is convenient to control the vacuum pumping valve to stop, that is, stop the vacuum pumping, after reaching the preset vacuum degree. For example, when the vacuum degree reaches less than or equal to -0.098 MPa.
[0125] Step S45: During the next preset observation time, obtain the vacuum degree in real time through the pressure detector.
[0126] If the decrease in the vacuum degree is less than or equal to the preset pressure value, seal the bag opening of the vacuum bag 32, and disconnect the vacuum pump, the pressure detector, and the vacuum pumping valve.
[0127] If the decrease in the vacuum degree is greater than the preset pressure value, check the vacuum bag 32, reseal the leak point of the vacuum bag 32, and then return to step S43, the step of obtaining the vacuum degree in real time, until the decrease in the vacuum degree within the preset observation time is less than or equal to the preset pressure value, then seal the opening of the vacuum bag 32, and disconnect the vacuum pump, the pressure detector, and the vacuum extraction valve;
[0128] It can be understood that after controlling the closing of the vacuum extraction valve, continuously and real-time read the detection result of the pressure detector to learn the pressure in the vacuum bag 32 in real time and observe the ability of the vacuum bag 32 to maintain vacuum. Specifically, in some specific embodiments, if the decrease in the vacuum degree within the preset observation time is less than or equal to the preset pressure value, for example, the decrease in the vacuum degree within 5 minutes is less than or equal to 0.017 MPa, it indicates that the sealing performance of the vacuum bag 32 meets the standard. Then, seal the vacuum bag 32 to form the mandrel 3 that meets the requirements, and then disconnect the vacuum pump, the pressure detector, and the vacuum extraction valve from the vacuum bag 32, which can be used for the subsequent operation steps of forming the tubular composite part 6 using the forming die; In other specific embodiments, if the decrease in the vacuum degree within the preset observation time is greater than the preset pressure value, for example, the decrease in the vacuum degree within 5 minutes is greater than 0.017 MPa, it indicates that the sealing performance of the vacuum bag 32 does not meet the standard. Next, check the vacuum bag 32 to reseal the leak point of the vacuum bag 32, and then repeat the step of testing the sealing performance of the vacuum bag 32 until the sealing performance of the vacuum bag 32 meets the standard. Then, seal the vacuum bag 32 to form the mandrel 3 that meets the requirements, and then disconnect the vacuum pump, the pressure detector, and the vacuum extraction valve from the vacuum bag 32, which can be used for the subsequent operation steps of forming the tubular composite part 6 using the forming die;
