Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a pipe, including: a rolling step of arranging a plurality of carbon threads such that the carbon threads tightly contact an outer surface of a mandrel; a heat-molding step of heating the mandrel in a furnace so as to compressively heat the carbon threads such that the latter are molded into a pipe; and a drawing step of removing a compression tape from the molded pipe, and separating the pipe from the mandrel.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A method for manufacturing a pipe, the method comprising:
rolling of arranging a plurality of carbon threads to tightly contact an outer surface of a mandrel; taping of arranging a compression tape on an outer surface of the plurality of carbon threads arranged on the mandrel; heat-molding of heating the mandrel in a furnace so as to compressively heat the carbon threads such that the compressively-heated carbon threads are molded into a pipe; and drawing of removing the compression tape from the molded pipe and separating the pipe from the mandrel.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the rolling comprises:
arranging the plurality of carbon threads in a form of a straight line on an outer circumferential surface of the mandrel in a lengthwise direction from one end to the other end of the mandrel; and winding the carbon threads in a spiral form on the outer surface of the mandrel.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the rolling comprises:
preparing a mandrel having grooves for forming patterns that are formed on an outer circumferential surface of the mandrel and extend from a lengthwise direction from one end to the other end of the mandrel and arranging a plurality of carbon threads in a form of a straight line so that the grooves for forming patterns of the mandrel are filled with the plurality of carbon threads; and winding the carbon threads in a spiral form so as to cover the straight-line-shaped carbon threads.
4 . The method of claim 2 , wherein an outer diameter of the mandrel increases gradually from one end to the other end, and
the arranging comprises: basic arranging of arranging the plurality of carbon threads in a form of a straight line on the outer circumferential surface of the mandrel in a circumferential direction of the mandrel at regular intervals; and additional arranging of arranging a plurality of carbon threads from a point where a gap between the carbon threads arranged in the basic arranging is generated to the other end of the mandrel in a form of a straight line in the circumferential direction of the mandrel at regular intervals, and the additional arranging is performed a plurality of times stepwise up to the other end of the mandrel until the gap between the carbon threads is filled.
5 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the winding of the carbon threads in the spiral form comprises winding double-layer carbon threads in a spiral form in each of opposite directions in which the double-layer carbon threads intersect each other.
6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
grinding an outer circumferential surface of the pipe separated from the mandrel; and painting of coating the outer circumferential surface of the ground pipe with a color and waterproof liquid.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
