Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of navigation, in particular to a Magnus effect rotating cylinder wind sail. BACKGROUND

[0002] The traditional manufacturing process of the Magnus effect rotating cylinder wind sail adopts a splicing process. The splicing process includes a segmented splicing process and a split splicing process. In the segmented splicing process, each segment of the rotating cylinder wind sail manufactured by the process is heavy, and the splicing of each segment is time-consuming and laborious and has poor straightness. In the split splicing process, due to the length of the rotating cylinder wind sail reaching 35 m, the splicing by workers is difficult and intensive, and the rotating cylinder wind sail manufactured by the process has poor straightness.

[0003] Therefore, the prior art uses a winding process to manufacture the rotating cylinder wind sail. The filaments are wound on the mold, which consumes a large amount of material and is heavy. To solve this drawback, the prior art uses a "sandwich" structure, for example, the Magnus rotor wind sail cylinder wall structure disclosed in the patent document with the authorization announcement number CN 218315613 U, which uses a clamping method to clamp the middle bundle layer. The maximum size of the thickness of the bundle layer of the "sandwich" structure is limited, which is not conducive to the improvement of the overall stability of the rotating cylinder wind sail, and is not conducive to the lightweight of the rotating cylinder wind sail. SUMMARY

[0004] The technical problem solved by the present application is that the Magnus effect rotating cylinder wind sail adopts a "sandwich" structure for forming, the wall thickness is relatively thin, and the middle bundle layer is clamped by a clamping method, which is not conducive to the improvement of the overall stability of the rotating cylinder wind sail.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides the following technical solution: a processing method for the structure integration of a Magnus effect rotating cylinder wind sail, comprising the following steps:

[0006] First, winding a filamentous composite material on a mold as a bottom layer of the product;

[0007] Second, after the bottom layer is wound, winding a structural core material on the bottom layer;

[0008] Third, after the winding of the structural core material is completed, winding a filamentous composite material on the structural core material as an outer layer of the product;

[0009] Fourth, after the winding is completed, sealing the bottom layer and the outer layer, and the structural core material therebetween, vacuumizing, and performing a resin flow guiding process; liquid resin is introduced into the bottom layer and the outer layer, and the structural core material therebetween through a hose;

[0010] Fifth, curing the resin, and demolding the segments after the resin is cured.

[0011] The application cancels the splicing process and improves the winding process in the prior art. Specifically, on the basis of the winding process adopting the "sandwich" structure, the resin flow guiding process is added, the resin for the "sandwich" structure formed by winding is integrated, the structure of the rotary drum sail is integrated, and the overall stability of the rotary drum sail is improved.

[0012] The filamentous composite material is glass fiber or carbon fiber; and the structural core material is foamed PET. That is, the bottom layer can be glass fiber, and the outer layer is glass fiber; or the bottom layer is glass fiber, and the outer layer is carbon fiber; or the bottom layer is carbon fiber, and the outer layer is carbon fiber.

[0013] After the "sandwich" structure winding is completed, the resin flow guiding process is performed. Specifically, the product as a whole is covered with a vacuum bag film, the vacuum bag film is matched with a vacuum pipe and a glue injection pipe, the vacuum pipe is connected with a vacuum pump, and the glue injection pipe is connected with a glue filling machine. The air in the vacuum bag film is pumped out by the vacuum pump, after the vacuum degree reaches the requirement, the valve of the glue injection port is opened, the resin is uniformly guided and filled into the gaps of the glass fiber or carbon fiber, and the gaps of the structural core material.

[0014] After the resin flow guiding process is completed, the mold is heated and cured. The heating mode can be electric heating, for example, the power is connected with the central shaft, so that the central shaft acts as a conductor to generate heat and heat the product. Alternatively, the product is packaged at both ends, steam is introduced into the product, and steam heating is performed.

[0015] Since the "sandwich" structure is formed by the winding process and then reinforced by the resin flow guiding process, the thickness of the bottom layer and the outer layer can be reduced, and the thickness of the structural core material can be increased. As an option, the thickness of the bottom layer is 5 mm, the thickness of the structural core material is 50 mm, and the thickness of the outer layer is 5 mm. The thickness of the filamentous composite material layer can be reduced from 28 mm of a pure composite material product to 10 mm, and the overall weight can be reduced by about 50%, which means that the material cost can be reduced by more than 50%. Taking a rotary drum sail with a diameter of 5 m and a length of 35 m as an example, the weight can be reduced from 22 tons to 11 tons. The material usage is greatly reduced, and the material cost is significantly reduced. The cost of glass fiber composite material is about 45,000-65,000 yuan / ton, and the material cost of a single product can be reduced by more than 500,000 yuan.

[0065] The thickness of the bottom layer 81 is 2.5-5mm, the thickness of the structural core material 82 is 35-50mm, and the thickness of the outer layer 83 is 2.5-5mm.

[0066] As shown in Figure 1 , the mold 10 is vertically arranged.

[0067] ​The mold 10 is erected on the bottom turntable 60, and a tower 70 is arranged beside the mold, and a winding trolley 71 capable of lifting is arranged on the tower.

[0068] The top of the tower 70 is provided with a top centering support arm 72, which is connected to a top centering mold 73 matched with the top of the mold 10.

[0069] As Figures 5 to 9 , the mold 10 is composed of several mold units 20 axially spliced, which includes a center cylinder 30 and several sector-shaped pieces 40 surrounding the center cylinder, the end face of the center cylinder is provided with threaded holes, the sector-shaped piece is provided with a strip-shaped hole 41, and the bolt 42 matched in the threaded hole and the strip-shaped hole installs the sector-shaped piece on the center cylinder; the radius of the inner arc surface 43 of the sector-shaped piece is smaller than the inner diameter of the center cylinder, the center shaft 50 is inserted into the circle surrounded by the inner arc surfaces of the several sector-shaped pieces, one end of the center shaft is provided with a positioning hole 51, and the other end of the center shaft is provided with a positioning column 52, and the adjacent two mold units are spliced together through the cooperation of the positioning hole and the positioning column.

[0070] As Figure 6 , Figure 10 , the sector-shaped piece 40 includes a straight wall 44, a sector-shaped connecting part 45 fixedly connected with the straight wall, and a sector-shaped limiting part 46, the straight wall is provided with the sector-shaped connecting part and the sector-shaped limiting part at both ends, the strip-shaped hole 41 is arranged in the sector-shaped connecting part, the sector-shaped connecting part at the upper end of the straight arm is connected with the upper end of the center cylinder 30, the sector-shaped connecting part at the lower end of the straight wall is connected with the lower end of the center cylinder, and the inner arc surface of the sector-shaped limiting part abuts against the straight wall.

[0071] As Figure 10 , the inner side of the straight wall of the sector-shaped piece 40 is provided with a handle 47, and the side wall of the center cylinder 30 is hollowed out.

[0072] The center shaft 50 is provided with external threads, the inner arc surface of the sector-shaped piece is provided with internal threads, and the center shaft 50 is inserted into the circle surrounded by the inner arc surfaces of the several sector-shaped pieces in a rotating manner.

[0073] As Figure 1 , when the product is processed, the mold is stacked up and down by several mold units, the top of the tower is provided with a cross beam, and the cross beam is provided with a hook capable of moving horizontally. The number of towers is a pair, the cross beam is arranged on the pair of towers and located above the mold. With the aid of the hook, the workers stack several mold units up and down.

[0074] Reference Figures 6 to 9When the mold unit assembled by stacking the upper and lower mold units together, the sector 40 of the mold unit 20 is pushed outwards, and the central shaft 50 is inserted into the circle surrounded by the inner arc surface 43 of the sector, the sector 40 is expanded, the bolt 42 is displaced relative to the strip-shaped hole 41, then the bolt 42 is tightened to fix the connection between the sector and the central cylinder. After the installation of one mold unit 20 is completed, the next mold unit is stacked on the mold unit, and the two adjacent mold units 20 are connected through the positioning column 52 of the lower mold unit and the positioning hole 51 of the upper mold unit.

[0075] After the mold 10 is assembled, the first to fourth steps in the processing method are completed. The tower is provided with a guide rail, and a trolley is movably arranged on the guide rail. The trolley is provided with a power unit for driving the trolley to move up and down along the guide rail. For example, a rack is arranged on the guide rail, the rack is engaged with a gear, and the gear is installed on the shaft of a motor. The motor is installed on the trolley. The motor drives the gear to move up and down along the rack, thereby driving the trolley to move up and down along the guide rail. The trolley carries the composite material, and the composite material is wound on the mold. In the case that the mold rotates and the trolley moves up and down, the composite material is uniformly wound on the mold. The bottom layer of the product can be glass fiber filaments, and the outer layer can be glass fiber filaments; or the bottom layer can be glass fiber filaments, and the outer layer can be carbon fiber filaments; or the bottom layer can be carbon fiber filaments, and the outer layer can be carbon fiber filaments.

[0076] Reference Figure 3 After the winding of the “sandwich” structure is completed, the resin flow guiding process is performed. Specifically, the entire product is covered with a vacuum bag film, and the vacuum bag film is matched with a vacuum pipe and a glue injection pipe. The vacuum pipe is connected to a vacuum pump, and the glue injection pipe is connected to a glue filling machine. The vacuum pump is used to pump out the air in the vacuum bag film. After the vacuum degree reaches the required value, the valve of the glue injection port is opened, and the resin is uniformly introduced to fill the gaps of the glass fiber or carbon fiber, and the gaps of the structural core material.

[0077] After the resin flow guiding process is completed, the mold 10 is heated and cured. The heating method can be electric heating. For example, a power source is connected to the central shaft, so that the central shaft 50 acts as a conductor to generate heat and heat the product. Alternatively, the product is packaged at both ends, and steam is introduced into the product for steam heating.

[0078] Reference Figures 4 to 19 After curing, demolding is performed. The worker demolds from the top of the product, removes the central shaft 50 from the circle surrounded by the inner arc surface 43 of the sector, loosens the bolt 42, enters the central cylinder 30, and loosens the nut 420 on the bolt at the bottom of the mold unit. The worker connects the handles 47 of the two opposite sectors with a rope 48, winds a rod in the middle of the rope, shortens the rope, and brings the two sectors closer to each other. In this way, the demolding of the sector 40 and the product is realized. The worker demolds the several mold units 20 that are spliced into the mold 10 from top to bottom in sequence, thereby realizing segmented demolding.

[0079] Reference Figure 1 The hook can be lowered, deep into the drum sail, hoist the mold unit, and move laterally to the outside of the drum sail, complete the demolding of the drum sail.

[0080] Since the "sandwich" structure is formed by winding process and then reinforced by resin flow guiding process, the thickness of the bottom layer and the outer layer can be reduced, and the thickness of the structural core material can be increased. The thickness of the bottom layer is 5mm, the thickness of the structural core material is 50mm, and the thickness of the outer layer is 5mm. The thickness of the filament composite layer can be reduced from 28mm of pure composite material product to 10mm, the overall weight can be reduced by about 50%, which means that the material cost can be reduced by more than 50%.

[0081] Taking a drum sail with a diameter of 5m and a length of 35m as an example. The segmented splicing process is adopted, which is to divide it into 7 segments, each segment is 5m long for winding prefabrication, and then each segment is fixed to the butt joint mold. After adjusting the butt joint accuracy, manual work is performed to splice each segment into a whole with a length of 35m. Each splicing joint needs 6 skilled workers, and it takes 2-3 days to splice. The cycle of manufacturing one product by segmented splicing process is 2-3 weeks. The labor cost for only one splicing work of each product is 20-30 thousand yuan, and investment is also needed for splicing mold, increasing process quality inspection personnel, etc. The weight of each segment of the drum sail manufactured by this process is heavy, and it is time-consuming and laborious to splice each segment, and the straightness is poor.

[0082] The segmented splicing process is adopted, and the traditional manufacturing process is to divide it into 3 segments, and each segment adopts resin flow guiding process. First, lay the reinforcing material on the mold, i.e. "dry" fabric, then lay the vacuum auxiliary material such as release cloth, flow guide net, vacuum bag, and finally use the vacuum pump to perform vacuumizing. Once all the air is extracted from the vacuum bag, the composite material is completely flattened under atmospheric pressure, and the liquid resin mixed with the curing agent can be introduced into the reinforcing material through the hose, and flows through the entire reinforcing material under vacuum. When the resin is completely filled into the reinforcing material, the resin supply is cut off, and then the resin is cured. The quality of resin flow guiding, i.e. the strength of the product, is close to that using prepreg process. After the completion of the 3-segment arc-shaped piece, workers splice it into a drum sail. Since the length of the drum sail reaches 35m, it is difficult for workers to splice, and the strength is large, and the straightness of the drum sail manufactured by this process is poor.

[0083] The filament is wound on the mold, and the wall thickness of the drum sail is 60mm. The winding reaches the predetermined size, the consumption amount is large, and the weight is large, and the weight of the drum sail reaches 22T.

[0084] The weight of the embodiment can be reduced from 22 tons to 11 tons. The material usage is greatly reduced, and the material cost is significantly reduced. The cost of glass fiber composite material is about 45-65 thousand yuan / ton, and the material cost of a single product can be reduced by more than 500 thousand yuan.
