Abstract

The spring element is produced from fibre-composite material and is formed by a continously rotationally symmetrically corrugated tube (1). Such a spring element is very light and can nevertheless be highly stressed.

Description

Federelement aus FaserverbundwerkstoffSpring element made of fiber composite material

I Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Federelement aus Faserverbundwerkstoff, das quer zur Hauptbelastungsrichtung ausgebogene wellenförmige Abschnitte aufweist. Federn aus Faserverbundwerkstoffen haben gegenüber Spiralfedern aus Stahl den besonderen Vorteil eines niedrigeren spezifischen Gewichtes, einer größeren Bruchsicherheit (fail-safe-Verhalten) und einer insgesamt hohen Festigkeit. I The invention relates to a spring element made of fiber composite material, which has wavy sections bent transversely to the main load direction. Compared to coil springs made of steel, springs made of fiber composite materials are special Advantage of a lower specific weight, greater resistance to breakage (fail-safe behavior) and an overall high strength.

Ein bekanntes Federelement aus Faserverbundwerkstoff (WO 85100207) weist im Winkelabstand von 900 zueinander angeordnete Streifen auf, die in einer Zick-Zack-Linie zwischen zwei endseitigen Anschlußbereichen verlaufen. Derartig gestaltete Federelemente sind schwierig herzustellen, insbesondere sind kompliziertere Formen und Fertigungsverfahren nötig.A known spring element made of fiber composite material (WO 85100207) has strips arranged at an angular distance of 900 from one another, which are in a Zig-zag lines run between two terminal areas. Such designed spring elements are difficult to manufacture, in particular are more complicated Forms and manufacturing processes necessary.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Federelement der vorausgesetzten Gattung zu schaffen, das verhältnismäßig einfach herstellbar ist und dessen Feder- und Dämpfungseigenschaften sich in weiten Grenzen beeinflussen lassen.The invention is based on the object of providing a spring element of the presupposed To create a species that is relatively easy to manufacture and whose spring and damping properties can be influenced within wide limits.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein Federelement der eingangs genannten Art geschaffen, das als durchgehend rotationssymmetrisches Wellrohr ausgebildet ist. Ein derartiges Wellrohr läßt sich aus Faserverbundwerkstoff vollautomatisch und daher sehr rationell als Wickelteil herstellen. Die Feder- und Dämpfungseigenschaften können nach Wahl des Faserwerkstoffes, durch variieren des Innen- undloder Außendurchmessers, der Wandstärke, des Faserwinkels und durch das Wickelverfahren - gegebenenfalls auch örtlich differenziert - beeinflußt werden. Eine derartig ausgebildete Faserverbundwerkstoff-Feder ist nicht nur korrosionsfrei und hat ein gutes fail-safe-Verhalten, sondern bietet auch ein großes Potential zur Gewichtsreduzierung etwa im Personenkraftwagenbau. Dort wäre die erfindungsgemäße Feder bei den heute gebräuchlichen Achskonstruktlionen ohne größere Umkonstruktionen verwendbar.This object is achieved according to the invention by a spring element of the initially introduced mentioned type created, which is designed as a continuously rotationally symmetrical corrugated pipe is. Such a corrugated pipe can be made fully automatically from fiber composite material and therefore very Produce efficiently as a wound part. The spring and Damping properties can vary according to the choice of fiber material Inside and / or outside diameter, wall thickness, fiber angle and by the Winding method - possibly also locally differentiated - can be influenced. A fiber composite spring designed in this way is not only corrosion-free and has good fail-safe behavior, but also offers great potential for weight reduction, for example in passenger car construction. There would be the inventive Spring in today's common axle designs without major redesigns usable.

Die Erfindung ist im folgenden an Hand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert. Die Zeichnung zeigt einen Axialschnitt durch das Federelement.The invention is illustrated below with reference to one in the drawing Embodiment explained in more detail. The drawing shows an axial section through the spring element.

Das in der Zeichnung dargestellte Federelement besteht aus einem Faserverbundwerkstoff und wird im wesentlichen durch ein durchgehend rotationssymmetrisches Wellrohr 1 gebildet. Wie man erkennt, können die Wellen 2, 3, 4 und 5 des Wellrohrs 1 eine unterschiedliche Höhe h aufweisen. Ferner kann der Außendurchmesser Da der Wellen 2, 3, 4 und 5 unterschiedlich sein und gegebenenfalls auch von einem Ende 6 des Federelements zum anderen Ende 7 hin zunehmen.The spring element shown in the drawing consists of a fiber composite material and is essentially through a continuously rotationally symmetrical corrugated pipe 1 educated. As can be seen, the waves 2, 3, 4 and 5 of the corrugated pipe 1 can be a have different heights h. Furthermore, the outer diameter Da of the shafts 2, 3, 4 and 5 may be different and possibly also from one end 6 of the Increase spring element towards the other end 7.

Die Enden , 7 des Federelements können durch kurze zylindrische Ansätze gebildet sein. Ferner kann das Wellrohr 1 unterschiedliche Wandstärken s aufweisen. Durch Variation der Konstruktionsparamter D1, Da, h, s sowie des FaserwickelwinkelsoC lassen sich die Federungs- und Dämpfungseigenschaften des Federelements beeinflussen.The ends 7, 7 of the spring element can be short cylindrical lugs be educated. Furthermore, the corrugated pipe 1 can have different wall thicknesses s. By varying the construction parameters D1, Da, h, s and the fiber winding angleoC the suspension and damping properties of the spring element can be influenced.
