Patent ID: 11298893

Abstract:
Manufacturing structure using a composite material includes: a tapering step for forming a first tapered surface on a first stiffener in an uncured state; a bending step for bending the stiffener such that a second surface is on the inner side; an arranging step for arranging the first stiffener and a skin at prescribed positions; a vacuum suctioning step for vacuum suctioning the first stiffener and the skin; and a bonding step for curing the first stiffener to bond the first stiffener and the skin. In the tapering step, the angle formed between the first tapered surface and the second surface is an acute angle. In the vacuum suctioning step, the first tapered surface is brought into contact with the skin while maintaining contact between the first surface and the skin, and the first stiffener is deformed so that a second tapered surface is formed on the second surface.
