Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of material property characterization testing, in particular to a resin draining device for a carbon fiber tensile spline. Background Technique

[0002] Carbon fiber is a new type of inorganic polymer material with a carbon content of more than 90%. It has comprehensive excellent properties such as light weight, high strength, high modulus, corrosion resistance, low expansion, fatigue resistance, erosion resistance, self-lubrication, and good compatibility with organisms, etc. Therefore, it is widely used in the fields of aviation, aerospace, leisure sports, and civil use.

[0003] The main methods for evaluating the tensile properties of carbon fiber are the single-filament tensile method and the multifilament tensile method. Since the single-filament tensile method measures the mechanical properties of a single fiber, the data obtained has a large discreteness and it is difficult to reflect the mechanical properties of its composite materials. The multifilament tensile method is to test the tensile properties of a composite material formed by impregnating a bundle of carbon fibers with resin and then curing. The data obtained in this way has a smaller discreteness and can better reflect the mechanical properties of its composite materials. Therefore, it is more widely used and the research in this aspect at home and abroad is relatively more sufficient.

[0004] Both GB / T 3362-2017 "Test Method for Tensile Properties of Carbon Fiber Multifilaments" and GB / T 26749-2011 "Determination of Tensile Properties of Carbon Fiber Impregnated Yarn", as well as the American Society for Testing and Materials standard ASTM D4018 "Standard Test Methods for Properties of Continuous Filament Carbon and Graphite Fiber Tows", stipulate the resin content of the tensile spline formed after carbon fiber is impregnated with resin and cured at high temperature. The stability of the resin content of the fiber spline after impregnation is directly related to the accuracy of mechanical property characterization. The larger the tow, the more difficult it is to control the resin content of the spline after impregnation manually. Manually controlling the resin content of the fiber after impregnation is not only not conducive to the characterization of the tensile strength of the fiber, but also increases the coefficient of variation of the tensile strength.

[0005] At present, most domestic carbon fiber manufacturers mostly use manual winding to make samples, then put them into the glue solution for impregnation, and use absorbent paper to adsorb the glue solution on the surface of the impregnated fiber. This method often introduces too much subjective human judgment and cannot ensure the consistency of the glue solution between tows during the adsorption process. Moreover, the resin content between sample batches will also vary greatly due to human reasons.

[0006]

[0007] ​With the increasing application fields of various types of carbon fibers, in order to meet the requirements for the characterization and evaluation of the mechanical properties of carbon fibers, ensure the consistency and stability of the resin content control of the splines after the fibers are impregnated with resin, and overcome the drawbacks of manual control, there is an urgent need to design a device for draining glue from carbon fibers impregnated with resin.

[0008] For this reason, we propose a device for draining resin from carbon fiber tensile splines. Utility Model Content

A working fixture is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lifting pull rod. A wire winding frame is clamped and fixed inside the working fixture. A first positioning hole is opened in the middle of the lifting pull rod. A second positioning hole is opened in the middle of the lifting pull rod below the first positioning hole. A third positioning hole is opened in the middle of the lifting pull rod below the second positioning hole.

[0011] Optionally, a lifting ring is arranged at the top of the lifting pull rod. Impregnation glue liquid is arranged inside the impregnation tank. The distance from the liquid level of the impregnation glue liquid to the top of the impregnation tank is greater than the height of the wire winding frame.

[0012] Optionally, the diameters of the first positioning hole, the second positioning hole, and the third positioning hole are the same, and the diameters of the first positioning hole, the second positioning hole, and the third positioning hole are the same as the diameter of the linkage pin.

[0013] Optionally, a belt pulley is fixedly installed at the output end of the variable-frequency motor. Another belt pulley is fixedly installed at the top of the driving shaft. The two belt pulleys are in transmission connection through a V-belt.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4, the utility model provides a resin draining device for carbon fiber tensile splines, which includes a motor bracket 15 and a bearing 13 fixedly installed on a device fixing bracket (not shown). A variable-frequency motor 11 is fixedly installed on one side of the motor bracket 15. A driving shaft 14 is fixedly installed through the middle of the bearing 13. The top of the driving shaft 14 is in transmission connection with the output end of the variable-frequency motor 11. A pulley 16 is fixedly installed at the output end of the variable-frequency motor 11. Another pulley 16 is fixedly installed at the top of the driving shaft 14. The two pulleys 16 are in transmission connection through a V-belt 12. A top lifting pull rod 3 is slidably connected through the middle of the driving shaft 14. A linkage pin 5 is slidably connected through the bottom of the outer peripheral surface of the driving shaft 14. An impregnation tank 1 is arranged directly below the lifting pull rod 3. A working fixture 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lifting pull rod 3. A wire winding frame 2 is clamped and fixed inside the working fixture 10. A first positioning hole 6 is opened in the middle of the lifting pull rod 3. A second positioning hole 7 is opened in the middle of the lifting pull rod 3 below the first positioning hole 6. A third positioning hole 8 is opened in the middle of the lifting pull rod 3 below the second positioning hole 7. The diameters of the first positioning hole 6, the second positioning hole 7 and the third positioning hole 8 are the same. The diameters of the first positioning hole 6, the second positioning hole 7 and the third positioning hole 8 are the same as the diameter of the linkage pin 5. A lifting ring 9 is arranged at the top of the lifting pull rod 3. An impregnating glue solution 4 is arranged inside the impregnation tank 1. The distance from the liquid level of the impregnating glue solution 4 to the top of the impregnation tank 1 is greater than the height of the wire winding frame 2. When the linkage pin 5 is inserted into the first positioning hole 6, the working fixture 10 is located below the liquid level of the impregnating glue solution 4. When the linkage pin 5 is inserted into the second positioning hole 7, the top of the working fixture 10 is lower than the top of the impregnation tank 1, and the bottom of the wire winding frame 2 is located above the liquid level of the impregnating glue solution 4.

And this device is simple to operate and has a low manufacturing cost.

[0026] Working principle:

[0027] First, wind fibers around the wire winding frame 2 at equal intervals and install them on the working fixture 10 at the end of the lifting rod 3. Remove the linkage pin 5, hold the lifting ring 9 by hand, lower the lifting rod 3 with the wire winding frame 2 at one end into the dipping tank 1 filled with dipping adhesive 4, and fix the lifting rod 3 to the first positioning hole 6 with the linkage pin 5. At this time, it should be ensured that the wire winding frame 2 is fully immersed in the dipping adhesive 4; after reaching the specified dipping time, remove the linkage pin 5, hold the lifting ring 9 by hand, raise the lifting rod 3 upward to the second positioning hole 7, and fix it with the linkage pin 5; set the rotation speed of the variable-frequency motor 11, and turn on the switch of the variable-frequency motor 11. At this time, the variable-frequency motor 11 drives the V-belt 12 and the connected bearing 13 to rotate through the pulley 16. Since the bearing 13 is fixed to the lifting rod 3, the rotation of the bearing 13 drives the lifting rod 3 and the wire winding frame 2 at the end to rotate at a constant speed. Under the action of centrifugal force, the excess dipping adhesive 4 is drained off to achieve the purpose of draining the adhesive; after the draining of the adhesive is completed, remove the linkage pin 5, hold the lifting ring 9 by hand, raise the lifting rod 3 upward to the third positioning hole 8, and fix it with the linkage pin 5. Open the working fixture 10, remove the wire winding frame 2 after draining the adhesive, and place it in a high-temperature oven for curing.
