Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of carbon fiber composite material molding, in particular to an edge corner area structure of a composite material automobile exterior decoration part. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, the requirements for lightweight vehicles are becoming higher and higher. Carbon fiber, as a lightweight and high-strength new material, is very suitable for the lightweight requirements of new energy vehicles.

[0003] Since carbon fiber material molding is much more difficult than traditional plastic injection molding and sheet metal stamping, it is difficult to achieve large-scale mass production. Carbon fiber prepreg molding is one of the most commonly used mass production processes for carbon fiber, but since prepreg molding is difficult to mold parts with undercut structures, the mass production of carbon fiber parts is further increased.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a composite material automotive exterior trim edge corner area structure to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an edge corner region structure of a composite material automobile exterior trim to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies in the current prior art.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A composite material automobile exterior trim edge corner area structure, comprising a composite material part and a stamping die for bending the composite material part into shape, the stamping die comprising an upper die, a lower die, and an undercut punch disposed in the upper die and an undercut concave die disposed in the lower die, respectively, characterized in that: a profiling groove for cooperating with the undercut of the composite material part is provided at the end of the undercut punch, a filling groove is also provided in the undercut area of ​​the undercut profiling groove, and the filling groove is arranged on the undercut punch, and a carbon fiber unidirectional tape pre-impregnated material layer is laid on the undercut at the end of the composite material part.

[0008] Preferably, the diameter of the filling groove is set to be the same as the diameter of the composite material part.

[0009] Preferably, the shape and size of the carbon fiber unidirectional tape pre-impregnated material layer are the same as those of the filling slot.

[0010] The beneficial effect of the utility model is that the technical solution solves the problem of being unable to form by filling the carbon fiber unidirectional tape prepreg in the undercut area of ​​the edge corner of the composite material part, thereby reducing the production cost of such parts.
