  • Patent number: 9976234
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for manufacturing para-aramid fibers, which includes: spinning a polymeric solution containing aramid polymer in an organic solvent through a spinneret into an inert gas to partially remove the organic solvent contained in the spun fiber; contacting the spun fiber with conditioning solution, so as to maintain residual water in fiber in a range of 10 to 15%; and subjecting the treated fiber to drawing, washing and heating in a dry-spinning manner. The present invention may greatly reduce energy consumption and costs for recovery of the solvent, as compared to a conventional manufacturing method of aramid fiber in a wet-spinning manner. Further, the present invention may solve conventional problems such as corrosion of apparatus, deterioration of working environments, or the like, since a concentrated sulfuric acid solvent is not used in a spinning process.

  • Patent number: 8511054
    Abstract: Disclosed are a method of folding multiple filaments and a bundle of filament produced by the same. More particularly, the method of folding multiple filaments includes release-winding the filaments under a uniform release-winding tension, folding the released filaments in non-twisted states and winding the folded filaments to produce a bundle of filament, so as to effectively prevent some of the filaments in the bundle of filament from hanging down or becoming loose due to different tensions when the bundle of filament is release-wound for post processing. The bundle of filaments includes a plurality of filaments combined together in a non-twisted manner and has highly uniform weight of the filaments per unit length of the bundle of filament, wherein the standard deviation of the weight of each filament ranges from 0.0001 to 0.01 from their average weight.

  • Patent number: 7647856
    Abstract: A missile launch and guidance apparatus of a rail-shoe launching type is disclosed. In a missile adapted to be launched while moving along a rail of a launch tube, a missile launch and guidance apparatus comprises: a bushing inserted into a missile body; a shoe, one end of which is inserted into the bushing, and the other end of which is in contact with the rail; and a spring inserted between the bushing and the shoe so as to provide a separation force to the shoe against the bushing. By separating the shoe from the missile in a lateral direction of the missile launching direction by an elastic force of the spring after launching the missile, the missile launch and guidance apparatus can keep constant the gap between the missile and the launch tube rail irrespective of the behavior of the missile taking place in a launching process, and the drag and weight of the missile launched from the launch tube is reduced to thereby exhibit the maximum flight performance.
