Abstract
A yarn prepreg package is formed by winding yarn prepreg (5) onto a reel (40). The reel (40) has two guides (43, 44) spaced apart (g1). Each of the guides (43, 44) has a first flange (51), and a flange-like second flange (52) being opaque. The second flange (52) is located on an outside from the first flange (51) in an axial direction. The second flange (52) has a higher thermal conductivity than that of the first flange (51). The first flange (51) is exposed axially outward through a remaining amount check hole (55) formed in a through shape at the second flange (52). The yarn prepreg (5) is led between the guides (43, 44) of both sides and wound spirally onto the reel (40) in a single row.
Claims15
A yarn prepreg package manufacturing method to form a yarn prepreg package in which yarn prepreg is wound onto a reel,
- the reel including two guides which are arranged so that a spacing is formed between the two guides,
- at least one of the guides including:
- a first member;
- and
- a second member which is located on an outside in an axial direction from the first member, is opaque, and is formed in a flange shape,
- the second member having a higher thermal conductivity than a thermal conductivity of the first member,
- the method comprising
- leading the yarn prepreg between the two guides to wind the yarn prepreg spirally in a single row onto the reel.
A yarn prepreg reel for winding yarn prepreg, comprising
- two guides which are arranged so that a spacing is formed between the two guides, wherein
- at least one of the guides includes:
- a first member which is transparent or translucent;
- and
- a second member which is located on an outside in an axial direction from the first member, is opaque, and is formed in a flange shape,
- the first member is exposed outward in the axial direction through a hole or notch formed in a through shape at the second member, and
- an air layer is formed between the first member and the second member.
