A fiber preform for producing fiber composite structures, a wall thereof including a first zone made from reinforcing fiber bundles having a first resin composition and a second zone made from at least one fiber tape comprising at least one unidirectionally directed reinforcing yarn strand having a second resin composition. The reinforcing fiber bundles in the first zone are oriented in different spatial directions to each other when viewed in a direction parallel to the extension of the thickness. Each reinforcing fiber has a length of from 3 to 50 mm, and contains the first resin composition in a concentration of from 1 to 10 wt % of the fiber weight. The wall of the fiber preform has a proportion of reinforcing fibers of more than 35 vol %, and the second zone forms a discrete region when viewed in a direction perpendicular to the thickness extension of the wall.

Portable apparatus for curing a part includes a wheeled frame having sliding part supports that move the part from a loading position to a curing position. A part clamping assembly is slidably mounted on the frame to apply clamping pressure to the part when the part is in the curing position in order to compact the part during a cure cycle. The clamping assembly includes a set of electrically heated shoes that heat the part to a cure temperature. A fan is provided to accelerate cool down the part after curing is complete. The heating and cooling operations are automatically performed by a programmed controller.

A system for reinforcing a substrate includes a rotary device, a first guide connected to the rotary device, and a form positioned against the first guide. A reinforcement is supplied to wind around the form and against the first guide. A method for reinforcing a substrate includes connecting a first guide to a rotary device and positioning a form on a first side of the first guide. The method further includes winding a reinforcement around the form and against the first side of the first guide.

The invention mainly concerns a method for making a composite RTM part (23) which consists in producing a dry fibrous preform (8) by inserting in said dry preform (8) composite parts (10, 11) made of prepregs. Said parts, pre-impregnated with a first resin, are partly polymerized. The assembly is placed in a mold (16). A second resin is injected into the mold and impregnates the dry fibers (7). The two resins are polymerized simultaneously. The partial polymerization of the pre-impregnated parts (10, 11) results in a good chemical bonding between the two resins. The pre-impregnated parts (10, 11) have better mechanical properties, in particular in compression, than RTM parts. This is particularly due to a better alignment of the fibers (12) in the direction of stresses, and to a higher fiber volume ratio. The final component (23), reinforced with pre-impregnated parts, has better mechanical properties than the same RTM component without pre-impregnated reinforcements, in particular in compression. The invention also concerns a connecting rod obtained by said method.
摘要:
A prepreg material infused with a bulk resin, where the bulk resin has shape memory alloy (SMA) particles intermixed in the resin to toughen the material when the material is used in an application and is cured. The SMA particles may be of various shapes and sizes. The material may form a prepreg fabric having interwoven fibers or a prepreg unidirectional tape having fibers oriented unidirectionally. Opposing surfaces of the material may be infused with quantities of bulk resin having different concentrations of SMA particles. The SMA particles may be mixed in the bulk resin while in their austenitic or martensitic states to suit the needs of specific applications.

The invention relates to a polymeric product (plastic or elastomeric) having domains of injected ingredients therein. A tire having precisely placed and oriented injected ingredients is described. The nature of the injected components, and their density, as well as their placement and orientation, are determined based on tire property enhancements desired. Fibers may be injected into the tread shoulder area of an uncured tire to provide abrasion resistance and traction in the cured tire. High tack rubbers or adhesives may be injected into the central tread region of a cured tire to enhance traction and grip.

摘要:
Pultruded profiles are manufactured as a die station which is fed with resin via a pump. The core of the profile is formed by granular material fed to station from a hopper through the interior of a hollow duct which is essentially vertically disposed, above the station, so that the granular material is moved under the influence of gravity. The exterior surface of duct is profiled and the skin-forming materials for the profile are guided by the profiled surface to the die station. The skin forming materials are runs of cloth. The pultruded profile may be tubular or hollow so that it has both an external surface and an internal surface in which case the internal surface incorporates a further resin bonded cloth fed to the interior of the die station over the external surface of a mandrel.
