A method of making a carbon fiber wave spring includes forming a disc-shaped ring from prepreg carbon fibers. The disc-shaped ring is then formed into a desired wave shape. The disc-shaped ring in the wave shape is then cured to form a wave spring.

A wire adapted to an elastic member includes: a core that is made of metal or alloy and is elastically deformable; and an FRP layer configured to cover an outer surface of the core, and including fibers wound around the core, and thermosetting resin provided at least partially to the fibers and fixing the fibers to each other. A winding direction in which the fibers are wound around the core is along a direction of a tensile load out of the tensile load and a compressive load applied to the wire adapted to an elastic member based on a load applied from outside.

A composite coil spring includes a coil body that extends along a coiled axis. The coil body includes a core and a plurality of fiber layers impregnated with a polymer material. The plurality of fiber layers are arranged around the core at different radial distances from the coiled axis. Each of the plurality of fiber layers extends around the coiled axis at an oblique fiber angle to the coiled axis. Each of the plurality of fiber layers includes a number of fibers that is a product of a common base number of fibers multiplied by a positive non-zero integer from a set of positive non-zero integers. The positive non-zero integer of at least one of the plurality of fiber layers is different from the positive non-zero integer of at least one other of the plurality of fiber layers.

A plastic ring (9) for detachably fixing a rounded-shaft tool (1) into a tool bushing (6), wherein the inside of the tool bushing (6) has an annular groove (7), into which the elastic plastic ring (9) held in an annular groove (3) of the tool shaft (2) engages, is designed in a slotted fashion and has at least one rib projecting beyond the outer surface of the plastic ring (9) and extending across at least a portion of the periphery of the plastic ring (9). In order to achieve a proper hold of the rounded-shaft tool (1), the cross-section of the plastic ring (9) exhibits a section (11) which can be pushed inwards and springs outwards in a radial direction and extends across at least a portion of the periphery of the plastic ring (9), wherein said section (11) can be pushed relative to the other sections of the cross-section of the plastic ring (9) from a relaxed initial position with a particular outside diameter (12) larger than the inside diameter (6′) of the tool bushing (6) into a fitting position exhibiting a smaller outside diameter corresponding to the inside diameter (6′) of the tool bushing (6) and is able to spring back into the relaxed initial position, whereby the total thickness (15) of the relaxed plastic ring (9) exceeds the depth (4) of the annular groove (3) of the tool shaft (2).
摘要:
A composite support comprising, a housing, a plurality of fittings, and a composite tube. The composite tube is provided with an outer diameter and includes a first fiber layer including a resin and glass fibers that have been wound around a mandrel, a second fiber layer including glass fibers that have been wound around the first fiber layer, and an outermost fiber layer including glass fibers that is located around the second fiber layer. The housing is at least in part spirally shaped and located around at least a portion of the composite tube. At least one of the fittings includes an aluminum and an anchoring surface. The anchoring surface is located, at least in part, radially around the composite tube, includes a diameter that is smaller than the outer diameter of the composite tube, and secures, at least in part, the fitting to the composite tube, so that, after assembly, the fitting and the composite tube are generally coaxial.
摘要:
A flexible, adhesively attachable, thermal and acoustical insulating shield has a needled, flexible, fibrous batt (40) having an insulating layer (43) of insulating fibers (44) disposed between opposite binding layers (41, 42) of binding fibers (45). Binding fibers (45) of each binding layer (41, 42) are needledly disposed through the insulating layer (43) and an opposite binding layer (41, 42) to provide tufts (46) of binding fibers (45) protruding from the opposite binding layer (41, 42) so as to form a tufted upper surface (47) and a tufted lower surface (48) of the batt (40). A flexible adhesive (50) is disposed and adhered substantially over the upper surface (47) and lower surface (48) of the batt (40) such that the tufts (46) on the upper and lower surfaces (47, 48) are secured to the surfaces by the adhesive. A flexible, protective foil (51) is permanently adhered by the adhesive (50) to the lower surface (48) of the batt. The shield may be flexed and pressed to configure and permanently attach the upper surface (47) to an object (1) to be shielded.
摘要:
A structural member for use in a wheelchair which includes an elongate section having side members connected by at least one central member and movement accommodating channels. Preferably, the elongate section has a W-shaped cross-sectional configuration. The preferred cross-section has a generally round outline. The preferred wheelchair structural member also includes a mechanism for imparting torsional stiffness thereto. Preferably, that mechanism includes stiffening disks which have a solid, circular cross-sectional appearance, and which are formed integrally with the elongate section. Similarly, the preferred structural member may include a mechanism for imparting bending strength. Stiffening disks, as well as increased cross-sectional diameter and increased wall thickness may be used to reduce the tendency of a structural member to bend. A preferred injection molding method and the preferred use of fiber-reinforced plastic materials are also disclosed.
摘要:
Axially extending structures having internal forces directed radially outward therefrom may be reinforced by installing bands around the structures. The bands consist of a plurality of elastic convolutions of a composite material which assume a coiled configuration in a relaxed condition. The composite material includes a multiplicity of continuous, high tensile strength filaments encapsulated in a resin matrix and extending codirectionally with one another through the resin matrix. The band is installed around the structure by deflecting portions of the band to an uncoiled configuration and then wrapping these portions of the band around the structure. Adhesive may be used to secure the band tightly around the structure. Particularly useful applications for the composite bands are for reinforcing gas and liquid transmission pipelines and concrete bridge support columns.
