摘要:
A component, including a part, comprising a honeycomb-like structure formed from at least a seamless resin-infused fiber composite material. The honeycomb-like structure includes a first plurality of honeycomb-like cells, and a second plurality of honeycomb-like cells, different than the first plurality of honeycomb-like cells.
摘要:
An element comprising a composite elongate member (2302), a channel (2328), and a number of composite structures (2200). The composite elongate member has a side (2305) configured for attachment to a surface (2326) of a structure (2304). The channel is on the side and extends along a length of the composite elongate member. The number of composite structures is configured for placement in the channel and configured to attach a portion of the side of the composite elongate member to the structure. A composite structure in the number of composite structures comprises layers (2332) having different orientations selected to increase a capacity of the composite elongate member to withstand forces that pull the composite elongate member away from the structure.

One example of the present disclosure relates to a tool (100) for laying up composite material to form a workpiece (190) having a target contour (192). The tool (100) includes a support structure (110) including an elongated member (111) having a longitudinal axis (112), and support plates (114) connected to the elongated member (111) and spaced apart from each other along the longitudinal axis (112). The elongated member (111) includes a metallic material (113). The tool (100) also includes a non-metallic backing structure (120) connected to the support plates (114), the non-metallic backing structure (120) comprising a working surface (121) that includes a backing contour (122) complementary to the target contour (192).

The invention relates to a device (190) for heating and applying to a preform (100) a textile strip (111, 112) comprising a fibrous reinforcement and a polymer, characterised in that it includes: a. a metal antenna (120) connected to a magnetron by a waveguide (121) and including a radiating surface directed towards the preform (100) capable of producing electromagnetic radiation at a frequency ∫ ; b. an inserted shim (130), made up of a dielectric material with low loss factor at the frequency ∫ between the radiating surface of the antenna and the preform (100); and c. means for securing the inserted shim to the antenna (120).
摘要:
A pre-patterned layup kit with layup patterned to accommodate an airframe topological feature, trimmed to fit a preselected target region of a layup structure, and conformed to the target region contour. The kit can be fabricated in advance of airframe manufacture and stored until use. The kit includes a flexible carrier upon which the layup is laid, and a release layer between the layup and the carrier. The layup has multiple laminae oriented to an carrier indexing element, and indexed to the target region thereby. A kit manufacturing method includes preparing the laminae constituent of the layup, preparing the carrier, and laying down the laminae on the carrier to make the kit. The kit can be compacted, inspected, and prepared for storage. The layup can be fabricated of a pre-patterned lamina or multiple laminae that are shaped and trimmed to accommodate an airframe topological feature.

A method (200) for making a conductive pre-impregnated composite sheet (100) includes the steps of joining a nanomaterial composite sheet (104), a fiber-reinforcing sheet (102) and a resin system (106) to form a combined sheet (158), heating the combined sheet (158), compacting the combined sheet (158), and cooling the combined sheet (158) to form the conductive pre-impregnated composite sheet (100) including the fiber-reinforcing sheet (102), and the nanomaterial composite sheet (104) coupled to the fiber-reinforcing sheet (102), wherein the fiber-reinforcing sheet (102) and the nanomaterial composite sheet (104) are embedded in the resin system (106).
摘要:
A method of forming a direct bearing joint includes providing a load bearing structure including a first structural feature having an arcuate shape and providing a composite skin including a second structural feature also having an arcuate shape. The method also includes coupling the first structural feature to the second structural feature such that the first and second structural features are mated against each other to facilitate distributing compressive loads induced into the load bearing structure into the composite skin.
