Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4880178
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A method and fiber-placement head are provided for placing fibers (33) into a plurality of channels (11) of a mold (10) to form the ribs of a structural member, including panels, cylinders and cones, or even a ribbed latticework structure by itself. While providing relative movement between the mold (10) and a plurality of fiber placement heads (22), fibers (33) are simultaneously placed into a number of the channels (11) of a mold (10) by means of the heads (22). The relative movement and placement is repeated as often as necessary in order to dispose into the channels (11) a desired thickness of the fibers (33). Each head (22) has a single motor-driven wheel (37) for continuously withdrawing the fibers (33) from a supply means (26) and feeding the fibers (33) through the head (22).
