PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a frame structure, as a curved pipe of a fiber-reinforced composite material with high rigidity, which can be fabricated into a frame of an arbitrary shape by a braider and used as various kinds of structures. SOLUTION: This frame structure constituted of braiding is formed of a spring member as a core and specified threads which are wound around the spring member in a braid fashion and impregnated with a resin by distorting the resin to a specified shape in one piece with the spring member and thermally molding and curing the resin. Thus the frame structure has the spring member mounted as its integral part. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
