Fiber reinforcing texture for making a composite material part
View Patent ↗A fiber reinforcing texture woven as a single part for fabricating a composite material part having an inner portion, or core, made by three-dimensional weaving with yarns made up from discontinuous fibers, and a portion adjacent to an outside surface, or skin, made by weaving with yarns made up from continuous filaments.
1. A fiber texture for reinforcing a composite material part, the fiber texture being woven as a single part and having an inner portion, or core, and a portion adjacent to an outside surface, or skin, wherein the core is made by three-dimensional weaving with warp yarns and weft yarns that are made up, at least in the majority, from discontinuous fibers, and the skin is made by weaving with warp yarns and weft yarns made up from continuous filaments.
2. A texture according to claim 1 , wherein the core is made by three-dimensional weaving of the interlock type and the skin is made by weaving with a plain, satin, or twill type weave.
3. A texture according to claim 2 , wherein the weaving of the skin comprises two-dimensional weaving with a plain, satin, or twill type weave and the interlock weaving of the core extends as far as the skin.
4. A texture according to claim 2 , wherein the weaving of the skin comprises multi-layer three-dimensional weaving with a plain, satin, or twill type weave.
5. A fiber texture according to claim 1 , wherein the core and the skin are made by multi-layer weaving with different weaves.
6. A fiber texture according to claim 5 , wherein the core is made by multi-layer weaving with a satin type weave and the skin is made by three-dimensional weaving with a plain or twill type weave.
7. A texture according to claim 1 , wherein the skin is made with a lower-count structure than that with which the core is made.
8. A texture according to claim 1 , wherein the core and the skin of the fiber texture are made with yarns of different chemical natures.
9. A composite material part comprising a fiber reinforcing texture according to claim 1 , densified by a matrix obtained at least in part by chemical vapor infiltration.
10. A composite material part comprising a fiber reinforcing texture according to claim 2 , densified by a matrix obtained at least in part by chemical vapor infiltration.
11. A composite material part comprising a fiber reinforcing texture according to claim 3 , densified by a matrix obtained at least in part by chemical vapor infiltration.
12. A composite material part comprising a fiber reinforcing texture according to claim 4 , densified by a matrix obtained at least in part by chemical vapor infiltration.
13. A composite material part comprising a fiber reinforcing texture according to claim 5 , densified by a matrix obtained at least in part by chemical vapor infiltration.
14. A composite material part comprising a fiber reinforcing texture according to claim 6 , densified by a matrix obtained at least in part by chemical vapor infiltration.
15. A composite material part comprising a fiber reinforcing texture according to claim 7 , densified by a matrix obtained at least in part by chemical vapor infiltration.
16. A composite material part comprising a fiber reinforcing texture according to claim 8 , densified by a matrix obtained at least in part by chemical vapor infiltration.
