Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of aircraft floor thermosetting forming, in particular to equipment and a process for preparing cargo hold floors and skins of Airbus aircraft. Background Art
[0002] Honeycomb sandwich composite structures are now common in civil aircraft cargo floors. The skin is typically made of fiberglass, and the core is typically made of aramid paper honeycomb layers, achieving lightweight, high strength, and high rigidity. However, cargo floors are susceptible to damage from impacts, scratches, and other external forces during use, necessitating frequent replacement. However, genuine Boeing or Airbus cargo floors are expensive, have long lead times, and are at risk of supply disruption due to the pandemic and trade frictions.
[0003] In the process of preparing the aircraft cargo hold floor and skin, an autoclave is required. The existing technologies involved are as follows:
[0004] 1. Publication No. CN116160698B discloses an autoclave assembly for bulletproof inserts, comprising: a base plate, an autoclave body, a door, a movable autoclave workbench, a sealing frame, a heating and cooling mechanism, and a vacuum mechanism; the autoclave body is mounted on the upper end of the base plate; the door is provided on one side of the autoclave body; a movable autoclave workbench is provided at the inner bottom of the autoclave body; a heating and cooling mechanism is further provided within the autoclave body; a sealing frame is provided above the movable autoclave workbench; and a vacuum mechanism is provided below the movable autoclave workbench.
[0005] 2. CN109519540B A tank and autoclave; the tank comprises a body, a first partition, a heating assembly, and a ventilation assembly. The body has a cavity with an open end. The first partition is disposed in the cavity, and the cavity is divided by the first partition into a first chamber and a second chamber that are interconnected. The heating assembly is disposed in the second chamber. The ventilation assembly is connected to the end of the body away from the opening, and is used to circulate air between the first chamber and the second chamber.
[0006] Due to the large size of the cargo hold floor of civil aircraft, in the above-mentioned prior art, the components used to promote air flow are all arranged at one end of the autoclave. During the heating and cooling stages, the air circulation path in the autoclave is too long, and a temperature gradient is easily formed in the area far away from the ventilation end, which affects the uniformity of heating and cooling of the aircraft cargo hold floor, directly affecting the material curing quality and structural performance. In addition, the hot pressing workbench in the autoclave needs to be manually pushed and pulled out by the staff. Due to the heavy weight of the large-sized floor, pushing and pulling is difficult, and the operation efficiency is low. In view of this, in-depth research on the above-mentioned problems has led to the creation of this case. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned problems and designs an apparatus and process for preparing cargo floor and skin for Airbus aircraft. The apparatus and process solve the problem that the gas generated by the polycondensation reaction during the production of the skin is difficult to discharge, which easily leads to bubbles on the surface of the skin material and affects the skin quality. Therefore, in order to prevent bubbles from forming in the cover skin produced in batches, aircraft floor manufacturers usually only prepare one floor skin in a single thermosetting molding process, which is inefficient. In addition, the components that promote air flow in the existing autoclave are all arranged at one end of the autoclave. During the heating and cooling stages, the air circulation path in the autoclave is too long, and temperature gradients are easily formed in the area far from the ventilation end, which affects the uniformity of heating and cooling of the aircraft cargo floor, directly affecting the curing quality and structural performance of the material. In addition, the hot pressing workbench in the autoclave needs to be manually pushed and pulled out by the staff. Due to the heavy weight of the large-sized floor, pushing and pulling are difficult, resulting in low operating efficiency.

[0032] Step 2: Using Airbus aircraft cargo hold floor and skin preparation equipment, the upper skins and lower skins are solidified and formed respectively;
[0033] Step 3: Use a material transfer rack to remove the air-assisted circulation carriage and the skin product on it from the autoclave, and use an overhead crane to transfer the air-assisted circulation carriage and the skin product on it to the demoulding area, clean the vacuum auxiliary materials on the surface of the upper skin and the lower skin in turn, and separate the multiple upper skins from the multiple lower skins;

[0041] The equipment and process for preparing the cargo floor and skin of an Airbus aircraft manufactured using the technical solution of the present invention have the following beneficial effects:
[0042] 1. When making the skin, adjacent skin materials are separated and stacked together by a breathable mold covered with breathable cloth. Then the first vacuum bag is vacuum bagged. The gas generated by the polycondensation reaction of the skin material enters between the whole plate mold and the steel perforated plate through the holes in the breathable cloth and the steel perforated plate. The C-shaped support steel bar is used to separate the whole plate mold and the steel perforated plate to discharge the gas generated by the polycondensation reaction of the skin material, prevent the presence of bubbles in the skin material, and ensure the production quality of the skin material. Multiple skin materials can be made simultaneously in one vacuum bagging and curing work, which improves production efficiency.
[0043] 2. After the skin material and floor material are bagged, they are placed in an autoclave designed with an air-assisted circulation rack, an air supply pipeline, and a material transfer rack. The air-assisted circulation rack is provided with upper and lower pipelines that can adjust the distance between the rack and the product. The air supply pipeline provides high-temperature or low-temperature gas to the pipeline in the air-assisted circulation rack. When the product needs to be heated or cooled, the air circulator works and the high-temperature or low-temperature gas is applied to the product from the air-assisted circulation rack at close range through the air supply pipeline, shortening the heat conduction path of the large-volume tank body. This overcomes the problem that the traditional autoclave only relies on the overall circulation of the tank body, with a slow temperature change rate and a large temperature difference between the center and the edge due to the large volume of the product, thereby improving the uniformity of temperature distribution. After the product is thermally cured, the material transfer rack works so that the air-assisted circulation rack and the product do not need to be moved manually, reducing the difficulty of work.

[0072] Example 1:
[0073] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1-10 As shown, an Airbus aircraft cargo hold floor and skin preparation device.
[0074] Through the use of wires by those skilled in the art, all electrical components in this case are connected to their corresponding power supplies, and appropriate controllers should be selected according to actual conditions to meet control requirements. The specific connection and control sequence should refer to the following working principle, in which the electrical components are electrically connected in sequence. The detailed connection means are well-known technologies in this field. The following mainly introduces the working principle and process, and does not explain the electrical control.
[0075] An Airbus aircraft cargo hold floor and skin preparation device includes a base 1, a tank body 2 is provided on the base 1, a vacuum system 3 is installed on the side wall of the tank body 2, a tank door 21 is hingedly connected to the tank body 2, an air circulator 4 is provided on the end of the tank body 2 away from the tank door 21, a fixed support 5 is provided inside the tank body 2, an air-assisted circulation trolley 6 is movably provided on the fixed support 5, a product 9 is provided on the air-assisted circulation trolley 6, an air supply pipeline 7 is provided on the tank body 2 corresponding to the air-assisted circulation trolley 6, and a material transfer rack 8 is provided on the base 1 corresponding to the fixed support 5;
[0076] It should be noted that the equipment is fixedly installed in the target area and connected to the power supply and control system. The base 1, tank body 2, vacuum system 3, tank door 21, and air circulator 4 constitute the local structure of the autoclave, which is a prior art. The specific structure and working principle can be referred to a tank body and autoclave with publication number CN109519540B. The fixed support 5 is used to support the air-assisted circulation frame 6, which is used to place the product 9 to be heat-cured. The air supply pipeline 7 provides high-temperature or low-temperature gas to the air-assisted circulation frame 6. When the product 9 needs to be heat-cured, the air supply pipeline 7 provides high-temperature or low-temperature gas to the air-assisted circulation frame 6. When heating or cooling, based on the operation of the air circulator 4, the high-temperature or low-temperature gas is applied to the product 9 from the air-assisted circulation carriage 6 at a close distance through the air supply pipe 7, thereby shortening the heat conduction path of the large-volume tank body 2. This overcomes the problems of slow temperature change when the traditional autoclave relies solely on the overall circulation of the tank body 2 and the large temperature difference between the center and the edge due to the large volume of the product 9, thereby improving the uniformity of temperature distribution. After the product 9 is thermally cured, the air-assisted circulation carriage 6 and the product 9 do not need to be moved manually through the operation of the material moving rack 8, thereby reducing the difficulty of work.
[0077] Specifically, the air-assisted circulation carriage 6 includes a horizontal frame 61, on which a vertical pole 62 is mounted, and a mesh plate 63 is mounted at one end of the vertical pole 62. The product 9 is placed on the mesh plate 63. A frame structure 64 is provided on both sides of the horizontal frame 61.

The staff can place the product 9 on the mesh plate 63. Then, the operator can operate the frame structure 64 according to the size of the product 9, so that the upper and lower air pipes 66 are adjusted to the upper and lower parts of the product 9, and the upper and lower nozzles 67 are aligned with the upper surface of the product 9 and the lower surface of the mesh plate 63.

A side shaft 6493 is movably installed on the side wall of the slot box 6491. The side shaft 6493 is located outside the slot box 6491 and fixedly sleeved with a driving bevel gear 6494 at one end. The driving bevel gear 6494 is meshed with the driven bevel gear 647. The side shaft 6493 is located inside the slot box 6491 and fixedly sleeved with a worm gear 6495 at one end. A worm 6496 is provided on the hand lever 6492 to match the worm gear 6495.

A second screw rod module 84 is mounted on the telescopic end of the electric push rod 83. Two blocking columns 85 are mounted on the moving end of the second screw rod module 84. The minimum distance between the two blocking columns 85 is greater than the width of the cross frame 61. A vertical frame 86 is mounted on the moving end of each first screw rod module 81, and an extension bar 87 is mounted on the vertical frame 86. The cross-sectional shape of the extension bar 87 is the same as that of the fixed guide bar 52.
[0087] It should be noted that the specific structure and working principle of the first screw module 81 and the second screw module 84 can refer to the linear motion module produced by Shenzhen Yutao Precision Technology Co., Ltd. When the tank body 2 and the tank door 21 are in a buckled state, the moving ends of the two first screw modules 81 are in the extreme position away from the tank body 2, and the components installed on the moving ends of the two first screw modules 81 are away from the tank body 2. When it is necessary to take out the air-assisted circulation frame 6, the tank door 21 is opened, and the first screw module 81 works forward to move the moving end of the first screw module 81 to the extreme position close to the tank body 2. At this time, the extension bar 87 and the fixed guide bar 5 are in a buckled state. 2 docking, through the forward operation of the second screw module 84, the moving end of the second screw module 84 drives the two blocking columns 85 to move into the interior of the tank body 2 and align with the two sides of the cross frame 61. Through the extension of the electric push rod 83, the tops of the two blocking columns 85 are raised above the cross frame 61. Through the reverse operation of the second screw module 84, the two blocking columns 85 match the cross frame 61, so that the air-assisted circulation carriage 6 moves from the fixed guide bar 52 to the extension bar 87. Then, through the reverse operation of the two first screw modules 81, the components installed on the moving ends of the two first screw modules 81 and the air-assisted circulation carriage 6 move away from the tank body 2;
[0088] The lower wall surface of the movable end of the first screw module 81 may also be provided with a groove, in which a plurality of rollers are arranged. The rollers are attached to the base 1 and are used to support the lateral movement of the movable end of the first screw module 81.
[0089] Specifically, the air circulator 4 includes a buckle cover 41, which is mounted on the inner wall of one end of the tank body 2. A cooling water pipe 42 is inserted into the buckle cover 41, and the cooling water pipe 42 passes through the upper wall of the tank body 2. A heating wire 43 is installed inside the buckle cover 41. A motor 44 is installed at one end of the outer wall of the tank body 2. The driving end of the motor 44 is movably inserted into the tank body 2, and the driving end of the motor 44 is equipped with a fan blade 45.
[0090] It should be noted that the cooling water pipe 42 is connected to the cooling water circulation system. During heating, the heating wire 43 works, and the motor 44 drives the fan blades 45 to rotate, so that the high-temperature gas near the heating wire 43 circulates in the tank body 2. During cooling, the heating wire 43 stops working, and cooling water flows in the cooling water pipe 42. The motor 44 drives the fan blades 45 to rotate, so that the low-temperature gas near the cooling water pipe 42 circulates in the tank body 2.
[0091] Specifically, a push rod 22 is installed on the inner wall of the tank door 21, and a buffer block 23 is installed at one end of the push rod 22. The buffer block 23 is set corresponding to the return frame 642;
[0092] It should be noted that after the tank door 21 is closed, the buffer block 23 is supported by the push rod 22 and abuts against the return frame 642 to ensure that the butt joint 69 and the connecting pipe 71 are tightly fitted. A sealing ring can be provided on the connecting pipe 71 to ensure a sealing effect.
[0093] Example 2:
[0094] like Figure 11-12 As shown, a skin preparation process, the product 9 includes a bottom mold 11 and a top mold 12, a plurality of breathable molds 13 are arranged between the bottom mold 11 and the top mold 12, each breathable mold 13 is composed of a whole plate mold 131, a C-shaped support steel bar 132 and a steel perforated plate 133, the upper wall of the steel perforated plate 133 is adhered to a breathable cloth 14, the upper wall of the breathable cloth 14 is adhered to a skin material 15, and a first vacuum bag 16 is adhered to the bottom mold 11;
[0095] It should be noted that when making the skin, adjacent skin materials 15 are separated and stacked together by a breathable mold 13 covered with a breathable cloth 14, and then the first vacuum bag 16 is vacuum-bagged. The gas generated when the skin material 15 undergoes a condensation reaction passes through the holes on the breathable cloth 14 and the steel orifice plate 133 into the space between the whole plate mold 131 and the steel orifice plate 133. The C-shaped support steel bar 132 is used to separate the whole plate mold 131 and the steel orifice plate 133, and is used to discharge the gas generated during the condensation reaction of the skin material 15, prevent the presence of bubbles in the skin material 15, and ensure the production quality of the skin material 15. Multiple skin materials 15 can be made at the same time in one vacuum bagging and curing work, thereby improving production efficiency. The breathable cloth 14 uses a rigid and breathable cloth, which is both breathable and can prevent the phenolic resin on the skin material 15 from entering the holes in the steel orifice plate 133 to prevent blockage.
