  • Patent number: 7722348
    Abstract: A mold assembly includes a mold mounted for rotation within a vacuum chamber. The mold includes a central drum having a hollow interior into which resin is poured. A plurality of hollow blade molds is radially disposed about the central drum. A plurality of radially disposed struts is secured to the central drum and each strut is received within an associated blade mold. Openings are formed in the central drum and in the struts. Elongate bundles of woven fiberglass are weaved in and out of the openings, beginning in the drum and extending to the respective ends of each strut. A motor spins the mold assembly and resin in the central drum is urged by centrifugal force to flow along the length of the woven fiberglass bundles until each blade mold is filled with resin. The resulting product is a monolithic structure having plural blades radiating from a central hub.
