Abstract
A kink surface and a placement surface are provided. The kink surface is bent so as to protrude in a depth direction, with a kink line extending along a height direction connecting a top end point and a bottom end point as a boundary. The placement surface has a normal direction substantially coinciding with the height direction and has a bending line extending in a width direction. The top end point is positioned between a first intersection and a second intersection and a bottom end point in the height direction. The bending lines and between the first intersection and the second intersection convexly protrudes toward the kink line in the depth direction.
Claims5
A molding die for bending a laminate formed by stacking a plurality of fiber sheets, the molding die comprising:
- a kink surface on which the laminate is laid;
- and
- a placement surface intersecting the kink surface and on which the laminate is placed by bending the laminate laid on the kink surface, wherein
- the kink surface is bent so as to protrude in a second direction orthogonal to a first direction, with a kink line extending along the first direction connecting a first kink point and a second kink point as a boundary,
- the placement surface has a normal direction substantially coinciding with the first direction and has a bending line extending in a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction,
- the kink surface has a first boundary line connecting a first intersection on the bending line and the first kink point, and a second boundary line connecting a second intersection on the bending line and the first kink point,
- the first intersection is positioned closer to one end of the bending line relative to the first kink point in the third direction,
- the second intersection is positioned closer to an other end of the bending line relative to the first kink point in the third direction,
- the first kink point is positioned between the first intersection and the second intersection and the second kink point in the first direction, and
- the bending line between the first intersection and the second intersection convexly protrudes toward the kink line in the second direction.
