Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of metal anticorrosion, in particular
to a connecting structure of metal member and GFRP, and watercraft body.
Background
[0002] Most ships use metal hulls. However, in the marine environment, the ships are easily
corroded due to the influence of seawater temperature, seawater salinity, marine atmospheric
temperature and marine atmospheric humidity, especially the stern shaft frame connected
with the propeller, which is immersed in the water for a long time and is located
at the place where the water flows violently, the degree of corrosion is even more
serious. Corrosion not only reduces the steel structure and strength of the ship,
shortens the service life of the ship, but also increases the sailing resistance,
reduces the speed and affects the service performance. More seriously, in the event
of a perforation or cracking, it can also lead to the occurrence of a marine accident,
resulting in a surprising loss.
[0003] At present, glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) is often coated on the metal surface
of the ship hull to prevent corrosion. The density of GFRP is small and the surface
is smooth, which can effectively reduce the resistance and increase the sailing speed,
and employ good anti-magnetic, sound insulation, electrical insulation properties
and other characteristics. However, because GFRP and metal are two immiscible materials,
when the use time is a little longer, GFRP will crack or even peel off from the metal
surface, losing the anti-rust effect, and has to re-coat GFRP on the metal surface,
the existing way of coating GFRP has a high maintenance cost, and reduces the shipping
time, reducing production efficiency.
Technical Problems

member fastened in combination with GFRP.
[0005] A second object of the present invention is to provide a watercraft body having the
above-described connecting structure of metal member and GFRP.
TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS
[0006] To achieve the first object of the present invention, the present invention provides
a connecting structure of metal and GFRP, the metal member is provided with a through-hole,
the through-hole penetrates the metal member, the metal member is provided with a
first side and a second side along an axial direction of the through-holes; the GFRP

through the through-hole, two ends of the connecting fiber bundle are respectively
located on the first and second side of the metal member, the resin is wrapped on
the surface of the metal member and outside the connecting fiber bundle, and the resin
is filled in the through-hole.
[0007] A specific solution is that the metal member is provided with an edge around the
through-hole; a first end of the connecting fiber bundle leads from the through-hole
around the edge to a second side of the metal member, a second end of the connecting
fiber bundle leads from the through-hole around the edge to a first side of the metal
member.
[0008] A specific solution is that the connecting fiber bundle includes a plurality of connecting
fibers, the first ends of the plurality of connecting fibers lead radially from the
through-hole around the edge to a second side of the metal member, and the second
ends of the plurality of connecting fibers lead radially from the through-hole around
the edge to a first side of the metal member.
[0009] Another specific solution is that the connecting fiber bundle comprises glass fiber,
carbon fiber, boron fiber, aramid fiber, alumina fiber or silicon carbide fiber.
[0010] Another specific solution is that resin comprises epoxy resin or an unsaturated resin.
[0011] Another specific solution is that the metal member is provided with a plurality of

[0014] To achieve the second object of the present invention, the present invention also

member and GFRP.
[0015] A specific solution is that the metal member in the connecting structure of metal
member and GFRP is a rudder blade or a stern shaft frame.
BENEFICIAL EFFECT
[0016] In addition to passing through the through-hole so that the two ends are located
at two sides, the connecting fiber bundle of the present invention can also have a
first end of the connecting fiber bundle leading from the through-hole around the
edge to the second side of the metal member, a second end of the connecting fiber
bundle leading from the through-hole around the edge to the first side of the metal
member, and the covering surface of the connecting fiber bundle is increased by respectively
winding the two ends of the connecting fiber bundle to the metal member, namely, the
connecting fiber bundle leading from the first side of the metal member to the second
side of the metal member or leading from the second side of the metal member to the
first side of the metal member. And by coating a resin on the surface of the metal
member, filling the through-hole with the resin, using the mutual adhesion between
the resin and the connecting fiber bundle to immobilize the position where the connecting
fiber bundle is located on the first side of the metal member and the second side
of the metal member, so that the resin is not easy to peel off and fall off from the
first side of the metal member and the second side of the metal member, so as to better
ensure that the metal member is not easy to corrode.
[0017] Further, since the first ends of the plurality of connecting fibers are led radially
around the edge from the through-hole to the second side of the metal member, and
the second ends of the plurality of connecting fibers are led radially around the
edge from the through-hole to the first side of the metal member, a coverage area
of the connecting fibers can be maximally covered on the first side and the second
side of the metal member to maximally tighten the resin fibers located on the first
side and the second side of the metal member to maximally ensure that the resin located
on the first side of the metal member and the second side of the metal member does
not peel off and fall off.
[0018] Further, since the rudder blade and the stern shaft frame need to be soaked in water
during the operation of the ship, and the rudder blade and the stern shaft frame are
arranged close to a propeller, the water flow passing through the rudder blade and
the stern shaft frame is relatively turbulent, and the water flow easily impacts the
GFRP on the rudder blade and the stern shaft frame, and easily causes the GFRP on
the rudder blade and the stern shaft frame to peel off, so that the rudder blade and
the stern shaft frame are corroded. Therefore, applying the connecting structure of
the metal member and the GFRP to the rudder blade and the stern shaft frame helps
to ensure that the rudder blade and the stern shaft frame are not corroded, and increases
the service life of the rudder blade and the stern shaft frame.
