Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of prepreg tape production, and in particular to an ultra-thin carbon fiber bundle unwinding device combining ultrasonic mechanical vibration and air blowing. Background Art

[0002] A prepreg tape is a composite material in which a reinforcing material (such as carbon fiber and glass fiber) is pre-impregnated with a resin. This material can achieve a uniform resin distribution during the manufacturing process, thereby improving the performance of the final product. An ultra-thin prepreg tape refers to a composite intermediate with a thickness less than 0.1 mm (some can reach below 0.06 mm), which is made by combining continuous fibers (such as carbon fiber and glass fiber) with a resin through a high-precision process. Compared with traditional prepreg tapes, it has the characteristics of being lighter and more flexible, and still exhibits excellent strength and stiffness with less material usage. Traditional prepreg tape unwinding devices perform poorly in the unwinding effect of carbon fibers, which will directly affect the subsequent material impregnation process and the strength of the final product, thereby reducing the service performance of the prepreg tape.

[0003] Some enterprises have achieved the production of ultra-thin prepreg tapes through self-developed equipment. For example, Shandong Blue Science and Technology developed a prepreg with a fiber surface weight of 6 g / m² and ensured batch stability. However, it still cannot meet the requirements for thinner prepreg tapes and better performance. Summary of the Invention

[0019] An ultra-thin carbon fiber bundle filament spreading device combining ultrasonic mechanical vibration and air blowing, as Figures 1 to 7 shown, includes an ultrasonic filament spreading device, a drying device and a mechanical vibration air blowing filament spreading device. Among them, the drying device adopts the existing technology and uses multiple jet devices to spray high-temperature inert gas for drying. In the present invention, the drying device is not the invention point of the present invention and adopts the existing technology, so no more description is made.

[0020] In this embodiment, the ultrasonic filament spreading device includes an inverted open frustum-shaped box body 43, one or more ultrasonic generators 44 installed on the side wall of the box body 43, and four independently driven identical-structured guide rollers 45 with their ends installed on the front and rear side walls of the box body 43 and their roller bodies inside the box body 43.

[0021] The box body 43 is an inverted open frustum shape with a small bottom and a large mouth, which is convenient for the carbon fiber bundle (carbon fiber bundle 47 to be spread) to enter under the action of the initial guide roller 48 and then leave after ultrasonic filament spreading. The specific size selection of the box body 43 is related to the length of the initial guide roller 48, and it is necessary to ensure that the width of the carbon fiber bundle after filament spreading is less than the length of the guide roller 45.

[0022] The box body 43 is filled with an ultrasonic medium, which is water in one embodiment. A sealing device 46 is installed at the connection of each guide roller and the front and rear side walls of the box body 43. The sealing device 46 adopts an existing sealing device, which needs to meet the requirements of no liquid leakage and no influence on the rotation of each guide roller. Each guide roller is parallel to the horizontal plane. The independent driving device of each guide roller is not shown in the figure because the technology of driving the guide roller to rotate alone already exists in the prior art, such as using a motor drive. There are also some technologies that are not invention points but already exist in the prior art and are not shown in the figure, such as the two ends of the guide roller need to be installed on the side wall of the box body 43 through bearings. This will not be described in detail in the present invention, but those skilled in the art know how to implement it.

[0023] Under the action of ultrasonic waves and the ultrasonic medium, the carbon fiber bundle is expanded by the different rotation speeds of four independently driven guide rollers 45. Along the transmission direction of the carbon fiber bundle, the rotation speeds of the four independently driven guide rollers 45 increase in sequence, and their speed control depends on different types of carbon fiber bundles. Under the condition of keeping the carbon fiber bundle unbroken, the maximum speed difference is adopted. In one embodiment, three ultrasonic transmitters are located in the middle of three sides of the box body, and the ultrasonic medium can be flexibly arranged according to needs, such as using water. When expanding the carbon fiber bundle by the different rotation speeds of four independently driven guide rollers, a thinner carbon fiber bundle can be obtained compared with guide rollers with the same speed, and the strength of the carbon fiber can be kept almost the same as that of the carbon fiber bundle obtained by guide rollers with the same speed.

[0024] The mechanical vibration air-blowing wire spreading device includes a support assembly, a vibration wire spreading assembly, and an air-blowing wire spreading assembly. The support assembly is used to provide support for the vibration wire spreading assembly and the air-blowing wire spreading assembly. The vibration wire spreading assembly includes a wire spreading comb assembly, a wire spreading roller assembly, a longitudinal vibration wire spreading assembly, a transverse vibration wire spreading assembly, and a sponge machine roller assembly arranged in sequence.

[0025] As Figure 2 shown, the support assembly is welded by table legs 1, long rib plates 2, short rib plates 3, fixed lugs 4, and a table board 5. Among them, the four table legs 1 are distributed at the four corners of the table board 5, and the long rib plates 2 and short rib plates 3 are distributed between the table legs to form a stable structure. The four fixed lugs 4 are respectively welded to the bottoms of the table legs. The purpose of the support assembly in the present invention is to provide a support platform. The table board 5 as described above is a horizontal platform, and other components are for maintaining the stability of the table board 5. The mechanical vibration air-blowing wire spreading device in the present invention is installed on the table board 5. Fixing on the support assembly as described in the present invention means fixing on the table board 5.

[0027] Among them, the blowing frame support columns are four columns with the same height. The projections of the four blowing frame support columns on the same horizontal plane form a rectangle. The four blowing frame support columns are respectively fixed on the table board 5 through a triangular fixing block. The blowing frame cross beams are two parallel ones, and each cross beam is a horizontal column (the cross section can be circular, rhombic, etc.). The two ends of each blowing frame cross beam are respectively fixedly connected to the top of a blowing frame support column. Each blowing frame cross beam is perpendicular to the carbon fiber bundle conveying direction. There are two parallel blowing frame slide bars 21. Each blowing frame slide bar is fixed on the two blowing frame slide bars through a blowing frame slide bar fixing block. The blowing frame slide bar fixing block is just a fixing device, and other existing methods can also be used for fixation. Each blowing frame slide bar is perpendicular to the blowing frame slide bar. There are two nozzle frames 30 and two nozzle frame sliders 22. One nozzle frame is fixed on each blowing frame slide bar through a nozzle frame slider. The two nozzle frames are connected by a nozzle slide bar 31.

The air flow distributor 33 is installed on the nozzle slider 32. The nozzle is installed on the nozzle slider 32 or the air flow distributor 33.

[0028] The purpose of the air-blowing filament spreading device is to blow the carbon fiber bundle. The gas ejected from the nozzle is a mixture of inert gas and water vapor. It is required to keep the humidity of the air within a suitable range (the humidity of carbon fiber bundles with different components is different) to make the flexibility of the carbon fiber bundle reach the best.

[0029] As Figure 3 shown, the filament spreading comb assembly includes a filament spreading comb support frame 6, a filament spreading comb side plate 7, a filament spreading comb 8, filament spreading nails 9, and a filament spreading comb guide roller 10.

[0030] There are two spreading comb side plates 7 and two spreading comb support frames 6 respectively. Each spreading comb support frame 6 is an L-shaped support frame. The two spreading comb support frames are symmetrically fixed on the table board 5 and are on both sides of the table board 5 (both sides of the carbon fiber ribbon). Each spreading comb support frame fixes a spreading comb side plate. The two spreading comb side plates are symmetrically structured (with respect to the midline of the carbon fiber ribbon). The spreading comb 8 and the spreading comb guide roller 10 are fixed on the two spreading comb side plates in a parallel structure (along the carbon fiber bundle transmission direction, the spreading comb 8 and the spreading comb guide roller 10 are arranged in sequence). A plurality of upward spreading pins are installed in a parallel structure at the central position of the spreading comb 8. The spreading comb guide roller 10 is independently driven. The spreading comb 8 divides the carbon fiber bundle into several small bundles to position the carbon fiber bundle and prevent the carbon fiber bundle from being entangled due to subsequent vibration and the like.

[0031] The spreading roller assembly includes a spreading roller driving roller 14, a spreading roller driven roller 15, a spreading roller support 12, a driving roller slider 38, a driven roller slider 39, a top slider 41, a handwheel 35, a tension sensor 16, a tension sensor base 23, an auxiliary roller base 24, and an auxiliary roller 42.

The two ends of the spreading roller driven roller 15 are respectively fixed on a driven roller slider. There are two tension sensor bases 23 and they are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the support assembly. The tension sensor 16 is a tension roller with a torque sensor.

[0032] The longitudinal vibration wire spreading assembly includes a longitudinal vibration motor 11, a longitudinal vibration motor base 25, and a concentric vibration machine roller 13. Among them, there are two longitudinal vibration motor bases 25, which are symmetrically installed on both sides of the support assembly. The concentric vibration machine roller 13 includes 3 vibration machine rollers. The two ends of the 3 vibration machine rollers are respectively installed on a longitudinal vibration motor base. The longitudinal vibration motor 11 is installed on a longitudinal vibration motor base and is connected to the 3 vibration machine rollers to provide longitudinal vibration to the 3 vibration machine rollers. The cross-section of the 3 vibration machine rollers is such that the center connection line forms an equilateral triangle.

[0033] The transverse vibration wire spreading assembly includes a crank-slider mechanism 34, a cushion block 29, a guide sleeve device 40, a Mayer rod driving roller 26, a Mayer rod driven roller 28, and a Mayer rod base 27. The crank-slider mechanism 34 is fixed to one side of the support assembly through the cushion block 29.

The sponge roller 36 is composed of two parallel rollers arranged symmetrically up and down. The two ends of each sponge roller are fixedly connected to a sponge roller base. During the working process, the upper sponge roller rotates counterclockwise and the lower sponge roller rotates clockwise.

[0035] As Figure 6 、 Figure 7 shown, the wire spreading process is as follows: First, ultrasonic wire spreading completely realizes the debundling of fibers to facilitate subsequent mechanical vibration combined with air blowing for wire spreading. Subsequently, it enters the air flow drying and then enters the wire spreading comb to fix the position of the fiber bundle and prevent the fiber bundle from crossing during subsequent vibration. Then it enters the longitudinal vibration to continuously pat the fiber bundle. While performing longitudinal vibration, air blowing is applied on the same side during patting to further disperse the fiber bundle for subsequent spreading. Then it enters the transverse vibration to widen and evenly distribute the fiber bundle. Subsequently, the Mayer rod and the machine roller fix the spread fiber bundle to prevent it from reverting. Then a secondary mechanical vibration combined with air blowing wire spreading process is carried out. Finally, the broken wires are removed by the cotton roller and then wound up to obtain the fiber wire that meets the widening requirements.

[0036] Before use, manually pass the 12K carbon fiber bundle through the guide roller 45 first. In this embodiment, the ultrasonic medium is water and the ultrasonic frequency is 20 kHz. Then pass it through the drying air flow of 5 m / s. Subsequently, divide the fiber bundle into several small bundles and pass them through the spreading pins 9 to position the fiber bundle and prevent tangling of the fiber bundle caused by subsequent vibration. Then pass the fiber bundle through the middle of the driving roller 14 and the driven roller 15 of the spreading roller, adjust the gap between the driving and driven rollers to 0.5 mm, and at the same time set the rotational speed parameter of the driving roller 14 of the spreading roller to 2 m / min. Then pass the fiber bundle through the lower part of the tension sensor 16 and the upper part of the auxiliary roller 42. Then pass the fiber bundle through the lower part of the longitudinal vibration concentric machine roller 13, set the rotational speed of the machine roller to 10 r / s. The concentric machine roller can increase the frequency and can pat the fiber bundle multiple times when the motor rotates one circle. The number of axes of concentricity can be selected according to the actual situation. The purpose of longitudinal vibration spreading first is to disperse the fiber bundle first for better transverse vibration spreading. Then pass the fiber bundle through the upper part of the transverse vibration crank-slider mechanism to achieve transverse vibration spreading of the fiber bundle. The transverse vibration frequency is set to 5 Hz. Then pass the fiber bundle through the middle of the driving roller 26 and the driven roller 28 of the Meyer rod to achieve the effect of fixing the spreading and prevent the fiber bundle from recovering and tangling. Then pass the fiber bundle through the middle of the driving roller and the driven roller to control the tension. Then pass the fiber bundle through the upper part of the driven roller to adjust the direction of the fiber bundle entering the next-stage vibration spreading. After secondary longitudinal and transverse vibration spreading, pass the fiber bundle through the middle of the two cotton rollers to remove broken fibers. Then adjust the nozzle angle and set the air flow parameter to 8 m / s. Finally, pass the fiber bundle through the cotton roller to remove broken wires and connect it to the winding roller. Finally, after measurement, the fiber bundle is widened to 4.5 times the original width.
