Patent EP-1379371-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MONTSINGER LAWRENCE
IPC: B29C48/05
Filed: 2001-04-10
Abstract: A composite with a thermoplastic matrix and fiber reinforcement (12) is made by rotation of an exit die (22) about a roving of continuous fiber (12) in the presence of a thermoplastic melt. The rotation causes opposing inner and outer helical flow conditions which reduce the melt viscosity of the polymer by shear thinning while dragging and directing the polymer into the fiber roving thereby wetting and dispersing the fiber. A composite structure is formed with a polymer rich skin (41) and a core region (42) of unidirectionally aligned polymer and fiber (12). The polymeric skin (41) is composed of helically aligned polymer chains which are coiled by the rotation around the core to compress the core region (42) and enhance fiber wet out.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une pompe à vide qui comprend un orifice (14) d'admission et un orifice (86, 88) d'évacuation. Le gaz en provenance d'un réceptacle connecté avec l'orifice d'entrée est pompé vers l'orifice d'évacuation par un premier et un second rotor (18, 52, 254) qui sont montés sur un premier et sur un second arbre (30, 60) s'étendant à travers le corps (112) de pompe. Ces rotors sont connectés par des sections (140, 150, 240, 250) d'arbres comprenant un lobe (142, 172, 242, 242') qui avance à partir d'une section d'arbre, et un canal (152, 182, 252, 252') correspondant défini dans l'autre section d'arbre. Les lobes viennent s'engager dans les canaux pendant la rotation des rotors de manière à former une section (154) d'aspiration. Cette section (154) d'aspiration comprime le volume de gaz entrant dans la pompe par l'orifice (14) d'admission afin de réduire la quantité d'énergie utilisée pour déplacer le volume de gaz à travers le corps de pompe en facilitant ce déplacement et d'augmenter le rendement de la pompe.
