TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of aviation composite material manufacturing, concretely relates to a kind of composite material forming die of semi-closed H-shaped beam. BACKGROUND
[0002] Composite material is more and more widely applied to various aircrafts due to the advantages of high specific strength, high specific stiffness, performance design, fatigue resistance and corrosion resistance, which greatly promotes the lightweight, high performance and structural function integration design of aircraft. As a main load-bearing structural member, semi-closed H-shaped beam has important application in load-bearing assembly parts such as wing and movable wing surface main beam. Therefore, new technology is urgently needed to better manufacture composite material semi-closed H-shaped beam to improve the integrity, strength and precision of composite material semi-closed H-shaped beam, reduce manufacturing cost and cycle, and meet the demand of high-performance structural member in aerospace field.
[0003] Semi-closed H-shaped beam refers to a beam with H-shaped cross section and uniform thickness of wing plate and web. Traditional composite material semi-closed H-shaped beam forming usually prepares upper wing plate, lower wing plate and web by flat die pressing respectively, and then combines them together by secondary gluing process. The process is complicated and involves many procedures and operation links, which not only increases the time cost and labor cost of production, but also easily introduces errors and uncertainties in each link, affecting the quality and performance stability of products. The semi-closed H-shaped beam prepared by traditional method may have defects in integrity and mechanical properties. For example, the secondary gluing part may become a weak point of the structure, reducing the overall strength and stiffness of the beam, making it perform worse than expected when bearing large bending and shear force, unable to fully exert the excellent performance advantages of composite material, and difficult to meet the demand of some high-performance structure application scenarios.

The inner sidewalls of the left core and the right core are fitted together with a gap between them to form the web cavity of the H-shaped beam. The front and rear end bosses of the left core and the right core are respectively inserted into the grooves of the front stop and the rear stop and fixedly connected by bolts. The rear wall surface of the front stop block mates with the front inner wall surfaces of the left and right cores, leaving a gap to form the front cavity of the H-beam. The front wall surface of the rear stop block mates with the rear inner wall surfaces of the left and right cores, leaving a gap to form the rear cavity of the H-beam. The upper surfaces of the left and right cores are both recessed inward and mate with the top inner wall surface of the upper mold to form the upper cavity of the H-beam. The lower surfaces of the left and right cores are both recessed inward and mate with the bottom inner wall surface of the lower mold to form the lower cavity of the H-beam.
[0006] Furthermore, the web cavity is located between the upper surface cavity and the lower surface cavity and connects the two.
[0007] Furthermore, the web cavity is located between the front face cavity and the rear face cavity and connects the two.
[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a lifting mechanism. Both the upper and lower molds have two semi-circular through holes on their side walls that fit together.
