A hybrid composite-metal component is provided. The component includes an elongate inner metal piece, an outer metal piece disposed about at least a portion of the inner metal piece, and composite material disposed between the inner metal piece and the outer metal piece. The component may further include at least one of a seal and at least one fastener joining the inner metal piece and outer metal piece. Both the inner metal piece and the outer metal piece may include at least one tapered end. The tapered ends of both the inner metal piece and the outer metal piece each may include a double taper.
摘要:
A method of processing a composite structure in an autoclave involves producing a layup (10) with a low density honeycomb core (12) covered by resin impregnated composite face plies (14). The layup is sealed to a mold (18) under a vacuum bag (20). The layup is then cured in an autoclave under high temperatures and pressures. A vacuum is applied between the layup (10) and the vacuum bag (20) via a vacuum port (22), thus creating a pressure differential across the bag (20). This creates a compressive consolidating force on the composite face plies (14). Volatiles emitted during curing are drawn away through the vacuum port (22). The core (12) communicates with the autoclave by means of a pressurization tube (26) which penetrates the mold (18) and into the core (12), thus eliminating the pressure differential between the core (12) and the autoclave. Autoclave pressure is communicated throughout the entire core via perforations (13) in the honeycomb core (12).
