[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, and it should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application, and are not used to limit the present application.
[0021] As shown in Figure 1 According to the embodiments of the present application, a method for preventing the collapse of the adhesive bonding of the honeycomb bevel surface is provided, comprising: Step 100: installing the skin assembly 13 above the honeycomb face of the honeycomb 12 to be bonded; Step 200: filling the foaming glue into the honeycomb core of the honeycomb 12 to be bonded; Step 300: installing the outer shape mold 14 above the skin assembly 13; Step 400: performing curing treatment, the outer shape mold 14 extrudes the expanded foaming glue to the outside of the honeycomb 12 to be bonded, so as to bond the honeycomb 12 to be bonded.
[0022] The method for preventing the collapse of the adhesive of the honeycomb bevel surface provided by the embodiment of the application fills the foaming glue, which expands and escapes during the curing process, in contact with the special skin assembly 13 and supports the honeycomb wall, so as to improve the strength of the honeycomb and reduce the possibility of damage to the honeycomb structure during the curing and adhesive process. The foaming glue is limited by the shape mold 14 during the curing process of the foaming glue, so that the foaming glue is directly shaped along the shape of the shape mold 14 and is extruded to form an adhesive layer. The adhesive layer is in contact with the honeycomb with adhesive and the component 11 to be bonded. After the foaming glue is cured, the honeycomb 12 to be bonded can be directly bonded with the component 11 to be bonded. On the basis of simplifying the operation, the bonding strength is increased, and the bonding quality and efficiency are improved. Meanwhile, the skin assembly 13 and the shape mold 14 protect the honeycomb from extrusion and collapse. The shape of the shape mold 14 is hard, so that the external force of the vacuum bag during the curing process is not transmitted to the lower fragile honeycomb wall, so that the whole bonding process is smoothly carried out, and the damage and collapse of the edge honeycomb during the bonding and curing process are further avoided, and the bonding quality and success rate are improved.
[0023] In a feasible implementation, the method for preventing the collapse of the adhesive of the honeycomb bevel surface further comprises: Removing the damaged part on the component 11 to be bonded; Dehumidifying and cleaning the component 11 to be bonded; Butt joining the honeycomb 12 to be bonded with the component 11 to be bonded to splice the repair shape surface.
[0024] In the technical solution, after the damaged part on the component 11 to be bonded is removed, the component 11 to be bonded is dehumidified and cleaned, then the honeycomb 12 to be bonded is placed at the original damaged part, and the honeycomb 12 to be bonded is butt joined with the component 11 to be bonded. The dehumidification and cleaning of the component 11 to be bonded reduce the moisture content of the spliced surface, reduce the tolerance of the spliced repair shape surface, reduce the fitting gap between the honeycomb 12 to be bonded and the component with adhesive, and further improve the pressure transmission efficiency between the honeycomb 12 to be bonded and the component with adhesive.
[0025] In a feasible implementation, the method for preventing the collapse of the adhesive of the honeycomb bevel surface further comprises: After the bonding of the honeycomb 12 to be bonded is completed, the shape mold 14 is peeled off from the honeycomb 12 to be bonded.
[0026] In the technical solution, the shape mold 14 plays a role in protecting the honeycomb with adhesive and shaping the foaming glue during the bonding process of the honeycomb 12 to be bonded. After the foaming glue is cured and shaped, non-destructive demolding is performed to protect the structural integrity of the adhesive layer.
[0027] In a feasible implementation, the honeycomb 12 to be bonded is a bevel honeycomb.
[0028] In this technical solution, the special design parts and outer edge sealing parts of the aircraft are repaired by using oblique honeycomb to repair and reduce weight, so as to meet the aerodynamic shape requirements of the aircraft. At the same time, the connection between the oblique honeycomb and the component 11 to be bonded is smoothly transitioned by the adhesive layer formed by foam, which can eliminate the stress concentration of traditional right-angle joints and ensure the strength and quality of the part to be bonded after the bonding repair.
[0029] In one feasible implementation, the method for preventing the collapse of the honeycomb bevel bonding also includes: Prepare the entire profile and skin material; Cut the profile before removing the damaged area; Based on the external shape of the material, perform shape adjustments. The profile and skin material are assembled to form skin assembly 13.
[0030] In this technical solution, the profile is cut and prepared before the damage is removed, and its shape is adjusted according to the repair surface to ensure that the profile can fit tightly with the repair surface and the mold 14, so as to avoid impact on the honeycomb 12 to be bonded and the bonded parts after the profile is under pressure. During the bonding repair process, the skin material and the honeycomb to be bonded are doubly protected by the profile and the mold 14 to prevent the honeycomb to be bonded from being damaged during the bonding repair. After the mold 14 is removed, the skin material and the bonded honeycomb are protected by the profile. The profile evenly distributes the pressure on the honeycomb and avoids pressure concentration, so as to protect the bonded honeycomb and its connection with the parts to be bonded 11, and improve the bonding quality.
[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, in one possible implementation, the skin assembly 13 completely covers the exterior surface of the maintenance area; The outer mold 14 extends to the outside of the skin assembly 13, and the outer mold 14 covers the honeycomb beveled turning position of the skin assembly 13 and the repair outer surface, so that the foam forms a transition surface at the turning position.
[0032] In this technical solution, the outer mold 14 covers the skin assembly 13 and the honeycomb beveled transition position of the repair outer surface, so that the foaming adhesive is shaped and cured along the outer mold 14 at the transition position and forms a transition surface. The outer mold 14 covers the beveled transition area to protect the edge from compression and collapse.
[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, in one possible embodiment, the outer mold 14 is mounted on top of the skin assembly 13, prior to the following steps: A porous separation membrane 15 is laid on the skin assembly 13; An adhesive-absorbing layer 16 is laid on the porous separation membrane 15.
[0034] In the technical scheme, the hole separation film 15 is laid before the profile mold 14 is installed, and then the glue absorption layer 16 is laid to absorb the escaped foaming glue, so that the profile mold 14 can be peeled off without damaging the skin assembly 13 after being bonded and solidified, and structural damage caused by demolding is prevented.
[0035] In a feasible implementation, the profile mold 14 is installed above the skin assembly 13, and the steps of: The air-permeable layer is laid to make the foaming glue tightly contact with the profile mold 14 after being solidified.
[0036] In the technical scheme, the air-permeable layer is laid to keep the gas in the whole vacuum device circulating during solidification, so that the foaming glue tightly contacts with the profile mold 14 after being solidified, which is beneficial to keeping the thickness of the bonding layer formed by the foaming glue consistent and improving the bonding quality.
[0037] In a feasible implementation, the hole separation film 15, the glue absorption layer 16 and the air-permeable layer are removed after the bonding of the honeycomb 12 to be bonded is completed.
[0038] In the technical scheme, the hole separation film 15, the glue absorption layer 16 and the air-permeable layer are removed after the profile mold 14 is removed, so as to ensure the surface quality of the transition surface.
[0039] In a feasible implementation, the profile mold 14 is made of ceramic material; and the profile of the skin assembly 13 is made of ceramic material.
[0040] In the technical scheme, the profile mold 14 and the profile are both made of ceramic material, so that the thermal expansion coefficients of the profile mold 14 and the profile are matched during the solidification process, the deformation difference between the profile mold 14 and the profile during the solidification process is reduced, the thickness of the bonding layer formed by the foaming glue after expansion is ensured to be uniform, the ceramic profile has long-term weather resistance and acid and alkali corrosion resistance, and the skin material and the bonded honeycomb are protected, so that the honeycomb is adapted to a high-salt-mist environment.
[0041] It is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the above-mentioned embodiments can be freely combined and superimposed without conflict.
[0042] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and is not used to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application. The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and it should be pointed out that, for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the technical principle of the present application, a number of improvements and modifications can be made, which should be regarded as the protection scope of the present application.
