Abstract

Abstract A method of continuous molding a rod-like product includes forming an uncured rod-like molding by passing reinforcing fibers impregnated with uncured thermosetting resin through a squeezing die having a predetermined shape. Molten thermoplastic fluororesin is extruded in a ring shape to enclose the rod-like molding. A sheathing layer of the thermoplastic resin is formed by causing the thermoplastic resin to come into contact with the outer periphery of the uncured rod-like molding and by cooling and solidifying the thermoplastic resin. The uncured rod-like molding and the sheathing layer are introduced into a heated tank thereby hardening the thermosetting resin. The sheathing layer is stripped from the molding to form a rod-like product having a surface of fiber reinforced thermosetting resin.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 154 words
A method for continuous molding of a rod-like product, said method comprising the steps of: forming an uncured rod-like molding by passing reinforcing fibers impregnated with uncured thermosetting resin through a squeezing die having a predetermined shape; extruding molten thermoplastic fluororesin in a ring shape in such a manner as to enclose said uncured rod-like molding; forming a sheathing layer of said thermoplastic fluororesin by causing said thermoplastic fluororesin to come into contact with the outer periphery of said uncured rod-like molding at an angle between 5° and 30° and by cooling and solidifying said thermoplastic fluororesin, said cooling beginning substantially at the point of contact between said thermoplastic fluororesin and said uncured rod-like molding; introducing said uncured rod-like molding having said sheathing layer therearound into a heated tank to thereby harden said thermosetting resin; and stripping away said sheathing layer to form a rod-like product having a surface of fiber reinforced thermosetting resin.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 154 words
A method for continuous molding of a rod-like product, said method comprising the steps of: forming an uncured rod-like molding by passing reinforcing fibers impregnated with uncured thermosetting resin through a squeezing die having a predetermined shape; extruding molten thermoplastic fluororesin in a ring shape in such a manner as to enclose said uncured rod-like molding; forming a sheathing layer of said thermoplastic fluororesin by causing said thermoplastic fluororesin to come into contact with the outer periphery of said uncured rod-like molding at an angle between 5° and 30° and by cooling and solidifying said thermoplastic fluororesin, said cooling beginning substantially at the point of contact between said thermoplastic fluororesin and said uncured rod-like molding; introducing said uncured rod-like molding having said sheathing layer therearound into a heated tank to thereby harden said thermosetting resin; and stripping away said sheathing layer to form a rod-like product having a surface of fiber reinforced thermosetting resin.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
A method for continuous molding of a rod-like product as claimed in claim 1, comprising forming sheathing layer to have a thickness of 0.07 mm to 0.6 mm.
