Abstract

ABSTRACT
A composite includes a board. The board includes: a pair of corrugated layers, each corrugated layer being formed from two corrugated sheets bonded together; and a cardboard honeycomb layer disposed between and bonded to the corrugated layers, the honeycomb layer being orientated such that the cells extend between the corrugated layers. The board can be cut using conventional machinery without fraying , thereby requiring little or no sanding, and can be edgetaped without being crushed using conventional edge taping machinery.

Description

COMPOSITE STRUCTURAL COMPONENT
AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates generally to a composite structural component.
BACKGROUND
[0002] Composite structural components including composite boards utilizing honeycomb centers have been disclosed in the art, However, known composite boards suffer from an unattractive combination of: (i) relatively high processing costs; and (ii) relative difficulty in machining and/or edge banding it.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0003] FIG. 1 is a top perspective view of a finished composite component according to one exemplary embodiment of the invention; and
[0004] FIG. 2 is a view along 2-2 of FIG. 1.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0005] A composite component 20 which forms an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is hereinafter described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.
[0006] Composite component 20 will be seen to include a composite board 10 and a PVC edge band 11.
[0007] Composite board 10 includes a honeycomb layer 12, a pair of corrugated layers 14 flanking the honeycomb layer 12, a backer layer 16 overlying each corrugated layer and a cover layer 18 overlying each backer layer 16.
[0008] Honeycomb layer 12 shown is formed from 0.5" honeycomb sheet from Axxon Packaging.
[0009] Each corrugated layer 14 is formed from two EB corrugated sheets bonded together and to the honeycomb layer with PVA glue. [For greater certainty, layer 20 is an E flute layer with a thickness of approximately 0.06" and layer 22 is a B
flute layer with a thickness of approximately 0.111
[0010] Each backer layer 16 is formed from PolybakTM B90, with a thickness of .026", and is bonded to the adjacent corrugated layer 14 with PVA glue.
[0011] Each cover layer 18 is a matte RenolitTM vinyl with a thickness of 0.008"
bonded to the corrugated layer with PVA glue.
[0012] The method of making composite board 10 is described as follows:
= an EB sheet is put through a glue roller applicator to apply a layer of adhesive to produce a coated EB sheet and a further EB sheet is laid upon the coated EB sheet to form an EBBE combination;
= the EBBE combination is passed through a pinch roller to form an EBBE
sheet;
= the honeycomb sheet is passed through a double roll glue applicator to apply adhesive on both sides of the honeycomb sheet and is laid upon an EBBE
sheet, and a further EBBE is laid upon both, to form an EBBE-honeycomb-EBBE bundle;
= the EBBE bundle is passed through a pinch roller to produce an EBBE
sandwich and the EBBE sandwich is placed in a pneumatic pressure for 20 minutes to produce an EBBE board;
= the backer and cover layers are applied in a manner analogous to the manner of application of the EBBE layers; and = the entire assembly is machined to size using a HomagTM WIKI Vantage 43 CNC cutting machine armed with the Solid Carbide UN-ruffer 67-445 (1/2"

Date Recue/Date Received 2022-04-20 dia) and the Solid Carbide Honeycomb Hogger.
[0013] Edge band 11 is applied using a HomagTM Edgebander and PURTM glue to form the composite component 20.
[0014] Whereas a specific embodiment is herein shown and described, variations are possible. For example:
= whereas a specific cutter is mentioned, other cutters, such as table saws, band saws and CNC routers can be utilized;
= whereas EBBE sheets are mentioned, other combinations can be utilized, provided that the thickness of each corrugated layer is at least about 3/8", which allows for edge banding;
= whereas a honeycomb layer of 0.5" is mentioned, thicknesses of up to 2.25"
can be utilized;
= whereas a PVC edge band is specifically mentioned, ABS and polypropylene can also be used;
= whereas PUR glue is taught for use in edge banding, hot-melt EVA can also be utilized;
= whereas a pair of cover layers is shown, these are not essential;
= whereas PolyBakTM is specifically mentioned, other strong polymer saturated Kraft papers can be used without sacrificing machinabilit; and = whereas RenolitTM vinyl is mentioned, other standard general purpose laminates can be used.

Date Recue/Date Received 2022-04-20
[0015] Further, whereas HelmibondTM 816 is mentioned, other glues can be used.
Advantages of using PUR glue, for example, are that it sets quickly and can avoid or minimize the need for pressing. However, it is important to select a glue that hardens and strengthens the surface. HelmibondTM 816 was found to provide a hard glass-like surface upon curing, which provided a board that did not require special handling, that cut using conventional machinery without fraying [thereby requiring little or no sanding]
and that could be edgetaped without being crushed using conventional edge taping machinery.
