TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of power transmission component manufacturing, in particular to a high-damping transmission shaft forming process based on double-material cooperation. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the field of power transmission, the transmission shaft as a core component plays a key role in the stability and reliability of equipment operation.
[0003] Currently, the research and development of transmission shafts focuses on balancing mechanical properties, damping characteristics, and lightweight requirements, but existing technologies still have significant shortcomings. From the perspective of material application, traditional metal transmission shafts (such as steel and aluminum alloy) have high strength and rigidity, but poor damping performance, which can easily cause noise and fatigue failure under high-frequency vibration conditions, and the high density of metal materials is not conducive to the lightweight upgrade of equipment. Some technical improvement schemes attempt to use carbon fiber composite materials to prepare the transmission shaft body, taking advantage of their high strength and low density to improve mechanical and lightweight indicators, but the damping characteristics of carbon fiber composite materials are limited, making it difficult to effectively suppress vibration, and a single material cannot meet multiple performance requirements. In terms of structural design, to improve damping performance, existing technologies often use rubber-filled or coated composite structures. However, the interface bonding between rubber and base materials such as metal and carbon fiber is a major problem, and there is a lack of effective interface strengthening methods, which can easily cause rubber layer peeling and falling off due to vibration and stress concentration over time, leading to damping performance degradation and affecting the overall life and reliability of the transmission shaft. At the same time, the mechanical strength of rubber materials is low, and without proper reinforcement design, the transmission shaft will lack stiffness and be unable to adapt to high-torque and high-load working conditions. In addition, in terms of preparation process, the problems of interlayer porosity and stress concentration in the prepreg layering process have not been effectively solved, affecting the mechanical properties of the carbon fiber base shaft tube; the modification and dispersion process of rubber materials is not perfect, resulting in unstable damping enhancement effect and making it difficult to achieve precise control and cooperative optimization of material properties.

In the embodiment of the application, the damping performance advantage of the transmission shaft is derived from the following two aspects: on the one hand, 3%-5% carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (diameter 10-20 nm, aspect ratio 50-100) added in the nitrile rubber are uniformly dispersed in the rubber matrix after 400W-600W ultrasonic dispersion, the high specific surface area of the carbon nanotubes and the surface carboxyl groups can enhance the friction energy consumption of the rubber molecular chain through the interfacial action, and significantly improve the damping properties of the rubber material itself; on the other hand, the 200-300 mesh stainless steel mesh embedded in the outer cladding layer is combined with the puncture-vulcanization process (puncture density , vulcanization temperature 140℃-160℃), the metal mesh not only provides structural support for the rubber layer and reduces the deformation loss in the vibration process, but also further dissipates vibration energy through the synergistic deformation of the mesh skeleton and the rubber matrix, forming a double damping mechanism.
[0138] On the contrary, the comparative examples lack the above-mentioned synergistic enhancement effect due to the absence of carbon nanotubes (comparative example 1), the absence of metal mesh (comparative example 3) or the omission of the key process (comparative example 2), resulting in a generally lower damping ratio of 0.18, a vibration attenuation rate of only 50%-70% of the embodiment, and a significantly inferior vibration damping performance to the embodiment, verifying the key advantage of the carbon nanotube modification and metal mesh enhancement technology in the application in improving the damping performance.
[0139] II. Interfacial peel strength test:
[0140] 1. Sample preparation: cut the interface sample containing the matrix shaft tube-core material or the matrix shaft tube-outer cladding layer along the axis direction of the transmission shaft, with a size of 100mm×25mm×5mm (interface width 25mm).
[0141] 2. Test equipment: universal material testing machine.
[0142] 3. Test parameters: tensile speed 50mm / min, ambient temperature 25℃.
[0143] 4. Calculation method: peel strength = maximum peeling force (N) / interface width (m), taking the average value of 3 parallel tests.
[0144] The interfacial peel strength experimental data are as follows:
[0145]
[0146] Data Description: Peel strength is a core indicator to measure the bonding strength of different material interfaces. The higher the value, the stronger the interfacial adhesion, and the more prominent the resistance to external force peeling. The lower the interface defect rate (such as bubbles, gaps, etc.), the closer the contact between materials, the more uniform the stress distribution, and the more excellent the interface stability under long-term stress or vibration conditions.
[0147] In the embodiments of the present application, the advantages of interfacial bonding performance are derived from the synergistic effect of multi-dimensional process design: for the interface between the base shaft tube and the core material, before filling, a plasma treatment (30s-60s, argon / oxygen atmosphere) with a power of 100W-200W is used to clean the surface and introduce active groups through high-energy particle bombardment, which improves the compatibility of carbon fiber composite materials and modified rubber. At the same time, a double-screw extruder is used for injection, and vacuum suction (vacuum degree ≤-0.08MPa) is applied at both ends of the shaft tube to effectively remove air from the interface to reduce bubbles, making the peel strength stable at more than 5kN / m, and the defect rate ≤0.8%; for the interface between the base shaft tube and the outer coating layer, the modified rubber sheet is wound at a spiral angle of 30°-60° and compacted, and after vulcanization at 140℃-160℃ and 2MPa-3MPa, the chemical bonding and physical embedding of rubber and carbon fiber are promoted, and the skeleton of the metal mesh is added to enhance the peel strength to more than 6.5kN / m, and the defect rate is almost zero. In contrast, the comparative examples omit key processes (such as comparative example 1 without carbon nanotube modification, comparative example 2 without pre-compaction, and comparative example 3 without embedding metal mesh), resulting in poor interfacial compatibility and insufficient mechanical engagement, with peel strength generally below 4.5kN / m and defect rate of 2.5%-4.1%, which is prone to delamination and peeling due to vibration during long-term use.
[0148] III. Fatigue Performance Test:
[0149] 1. Sample Preparation: Complete transmission shaft (including connecting flange).
[0150] 2. Test Equipment: Transmission shaft fatigue test bench.
[0151] 3. Test Parameters: Rotational speed 1000-5000rpm (continuous increase), 1.2 times the rated torque is applied, and the environmental temperature is 25℃.
[0152] 4. Judgment Criteria: Record the number of cycles when cracks, deformation, or a decrease in torque transmission efficiency ≥10% occur in the transmission shaft, which is the fatigue life.
[0153] Fatigue performance test experimental data:
[0154]
[0155] Data Description: Fatigue cycle number is a key indicator to evaluate the anti-failure ability of the transmission shaft under alternating load. The more the cycle number is, the later the failure occurs, indicating that the structure has stronger stability under long-term dynamic stress and longer fatigue life. This indicator directly reflects the durability of the transmission shaft under actual working conditions (such as 1000-5000 rpm speed fluctuation), and is a core parameter to measure its reliability.
[0156] In the embodiments of the present application, on the one hand, during the laying process of the carbon fiber prepreg, every 3-8 layers are pre-compacted by ≥0.09 MPa vacuum for more than 30 min, and then are subjected to sectional curing (120℃-150℃, 0.3 MPa-0.8 MPa) in a hot press tank, so as to effectively reduce the interlayer porosity (porosity ≤1%) and make the fiber-resin interface of the matrix shaft tube more closely combined, thereby significantly improving the anti-fatigue cracking ability. On the other hand, the 200-300 mesh stainless steel mesh embedded in the outer cladding layer forms a composite structure with the modified rubber. The metal mesh disperses the vibration stress through the skeleton effect, avoiding early tearing caused by local stress concentration, while the carbon nanotube modified rubber absorbs fatigue energy through the elastic deformation of molecular chains, delaying crack propagation. The double reinforcement makes the fatigue cycle number of the embodiments under 1000-5000 rpm speed reach more than times, and some embodiments even exceed times.
[0157] On the contrary, in the comparative examples, the pre-compaction is omitted in Comparative Example 2, the interlayer porosity of the matrix shaft tube increases to 5%, which becomes the initiation point of fatigue cracks; the metal mesh is not embedded in Comparative Example 3, and the anti-deformation ability of the outer cladding layer is insufficient, which is easy to fall off under high-frequency vibration; and the rubber is not modified in Comparative Example 1, the damping energy consumption is insufficient, and the interface is peeled off in advance due to the continuous accumulation of stress, so that the fatigue cycle number is less than times.
[0158] Four, torque transmission efficiency test
[0159] 1. Sample preparation: complete transmission shaft (including input / output end flanges).
[0160] 2. Test equipment: torque sensor (accuracy ±0.5%), tachometer.
[0161] 3. Test parameters: input speed 1000 rpm, gradually loaded to 80% of the rated torque, and stably run for 30 min.
[0162] 4. Calculation method: torque transmission efficiency = (output torque × output speed) / (input torque × input speed) × 100%, taking the average of 3 measurements.
[0163] The experimental data of the torque transmission efficiency are as follows:
[0164]
[0165] Data description: Torque transmission efficiency is a core indicator to measure the power transmission capacity of the transmission shaft. The higher the efficiency, the less the loss of input power, and the more sufficient the energy utilization. The smaller the torque fluctuation, the more stable the force transmission in the transmission process, which can reduce the vibration and noise caused by instantaneous load mutation, and is a key parameter to evaluate the stability of the transmission system. Both of them reflect the power transmission performance of the transmission shaft under actual working conditions.
[0166] In the embodiment of the application, on the one hand, the carbon fiber prepreg is stretched straight by 5-10N axial tension during the laying of the carbon fiber prepreg, and each 3-8 layers are pre-pressed by ≥0.09MPa vacuum to cooperate with the segmented curing of the autoclave (pressure fluctuation ±0.05MPa), so that the matrix shaft pipe layers are tightly fitted and the porosity is ≤1%, thereby avoiding the power loss caused by interlayer slip; on the other hand, the perpendicularity is ensured to be ≤0.1mm / m by positioning tooling during the assembly of the connecting flange, and the bolts are uniformly tightened according to the torque of 10-50N·m, thereby reducing the additional resistance caused by assembly deviation, and the metal mesh reinforcing structure of the outer cladding layer improves the overall rigidity, thereby avoiding the torque fluctuation caused by deformation during high-speed rotation. Multiple optimization makes the torque transmission efficiency of the embodiment ≥95% and the fluctuation amplitude ≤1.2%. In contrast, the transmission performance of the comparative examples is reduced due to process defects: in comparative example 2, the pre-pressing is omitted, there are a large number of pores between the matrix shaft pipe layers, the fiber and the resin have weak cooperative stress resistance, and interlayer slip occurs during power transmission, so that the efficiency is reduced to 90%; in comparative examples 1 and 3, the interface bonding is poor (the rubber is not modified or there is no metal mesh), and the interface friction is intensified during high-speed rotation, so that not only the efficiency is obviously lost, but also the torque fluctuation amplitude is increased to more than 2.5%.
[0167] V. Dynamic balance test:
[0168] 1. Sample preparation: complete transmission shaft (including flange).
[0169] 2. Test equipment: hard support dynamic balancing machine.
[0170] 3. Test parameters: rotating speed 1500rpm, balance accuracy grade G6.3.
[0171] 4. Calculation method: unbalance = (balancing machine measurement value x correction radius) / transmission shaft mass, unit: .
[0172] VI. Thermal conductivity test:
[0173] 1. Sample preparation: cut 50mm×50mm×3mm sample from the outer cladding layer.
[0174] 2. Test equipment: laser thermal conductivity instrument.
[0175] 3. Test parameters: temperature 25℃, heat flow direction perpendicular to the surface of the coating layer.
[0176] 4. Calculation method: calculate the thermal conductivity according to Fourier's law , where Q is the heat flux density, d is the sample thickness, A is the test area, and ΔT is the temperature difference.
[0177] Seven, porosity detection:
[0178] 1. Sample preparation: after vulcanization of the outer coating layer, cut the cross-section sample, and polish it.
[0179] 2. Test equipment: ultrasonic flaw detector (probe frequency 5MHz).
[0180] 3. Test parameters: flaw detection sensitivity flat-bottomed hole, the scanning range covers the entire coating layer area.
[0181] 4. Judgment standard: record the number of pores with a diameter ≥1mm, and if there is no such pore, it is qualified.
[0182] Note: all tests need to be tested in triplicate, if the single result deviates from the average value ≤10%, take the average value as the final data; if the deviation >10%, retest and exclude abnormal values.
[0183] The main performance experimental data of the above examples and comparative examples are compared as follows:
[0184]
[0185] Experimental data analysis:
[0186] The advantages of the high-damping transmission shaft forming process based on the cooperation of the double materials of the present application compared with the existing process are: the damping ratio of examples 1-3 is 0.2-0.4 (10-500Hz frequency range), which is significantly higher than that of the comparative example (0.12-0.18), which indicates that the modification of carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (3%-5%) to nitrile rubber, and the embedding and puncture-vulcanization process of 200-300 mesh stainless steel mesh in the outer coating layer (puncture density) , forms a double damping mechanism of molecular level energy consumption and structural level energy consumption, the high specific surface area of carbon nanotubes enhances the friction energy consumption of rubber molecular chain, and the metal mesh further dissipates vibration energy through skeleton cooperative deformation, so that the vibration attenuation rate (8.5-10.1dB / s) of the examples is more than 50% higher than that of the comparative example (4.8-6.1dB / s), effectively solving the problem of insufficient damping of traditional transmission shafts.
[0187] The interface peel strength of the embodiment is 5-8 kN / m, and the interface defect rate is ≤0.8%, which is much better than the comparative example (peel strength 3-4.5 kN / m, defect rate 2.5%-4.1%), and the core reason is that the active groups are introduced into the inner cavity of the matrix shaft tube by 100 W-200 W plasma treatment, and the compatibility of rubber and carbon fiber is improved by vacuum assisted filling (≤-0.08 MPa) to eliminate bubbles, and the outer cladding layer is wrapped with 30°-60° spiral and vulcanized (140℃-160℃, 2 MPa-3 MPa), which strengthens the physical embedding and chemical bonding, and the mechanical engagement force of the metal mesh is added, which avoids the interface peeling problem caused by the process omission of the comparative example.
[0188] The fatigue cycle number of the embodiment at 1000-5000 rpm times is 1.25-2 times that of the comparative example (times) , which is due to the pre-compaction (≥0.09 MPa) and segmented curing process of the carbon fiber prepreg every 3-8 layers, which makes the interlayer porosity of the matrix shaft tube ≤1%, the fiber-resin synergistic stress capacity is enhanced, and the metal mesh disperses the vibration stress, the modified rubber absorbs the fatigue energy through elastic deformation, and delays the crack propagation, while the comparative example omits the pre-compaction (interlayer porosity 5%) and metal mesh, which leads to the early failure of the weak structure part; the torque transmission efficiency of the embodiment is ≥95%, and the fluctuation amplitude is ≤1.2%.
[0189] In addition, the weight of the transmission shaft prepared by the embodiment is reduced by 30%-40% compared with the comparative example 2 (steel shaft typical value), and the advantage is that the pre-compaction and segmented curing ensure the density of the matrix shaft tube, reduce the interlayer slip loss, and the flange assembly reduces the additional resistance through positioning tooling (perpendicularity ≤0.1 mm / m) and precise torque control (0.1-0.5 Nm) ).
[0190] On the contrary, the efficiency loss of the comparative example is 3%-7% due to interlayer defects or interface failure, and the torque fluctuation is 2.5%-3.1%, which verifies the improvement of the process of the embodiment on the stability of the transmission; the outer cladding layer of the embodiment is detected by ultrasonic flaw detection without ≥1 mm pores, while the comparative example has a pore rate of 1.2%-5.0% due to the process defects such as unmodified rubber and unpre-compacted, which shows that the present application effectively guarantees the stability of product quality by fine process such as ultrasonic dispersion (400 W-600 W) to control the particle size of carbon nanotube agglomerates ≤5 μm and pre-compaction to exclude interlayer air.
[0191] In summary, the experimental data fully prove that the present application realizes the performance improvement of high damping, strong interface, long service life and high transmission efficiency of the transmission shaft, and all performance indicators are significantly better than the comparative example which lacks core process.
[0192] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the application is not limited to the details of the above-exemplified embodiments and that the present application can be implemented in other particular forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present application. The embodiments should therefore be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the application being indicated by the appended claims rather than by the above description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.
