Furthermore, a component is described with a real wood surface, which is printed by means of an inkjet printing process such that their grain corresponds to a predetermined wood species and their coloring of a predetermined color.
  • Wood surfaces often have damaged areas (imperfections), such as cracks or knotholes.
  • a panel which has a surface layer of real wood, wherein in the surface layer at least one knothole is present, which is filled with a filler, wherein in the knothole a branch texture imitating insert is inserted, which is fixed with the filler in the knothole.
  • knotholes or cracks in wood surfaces are filled over the entire surface with a filler, which is tailored to the color of the wood. As a result, the repaired spot in the wood surface still remains to be seen.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a method for improving the appearance of a surface of a component, in particular a wooden surface.
  • the object is achieved by a method having the features of claim 1.
  • the object is achieved by a method having the features of claim 2.
  • the alternative method according to claim 2 provides that a printer prints a print image on a support which is subsequently applied to the repaired surface area, the optical design of the print image being adjusted on the repaired surface area of the optical design of the adjacent surface area.
  • Components within the meaning of the invention can be any imaginable objects which have a surface which is visible and has damaged areas, such as wood panels, as used for parquet floors or wall panels.
  • Particularly suitable is the method for the processing of wood surfaces, but it can also be surfaces of other materials, such as paper, cardboard, plastic or stone, processed by the method according to the invention.
  • Uniform appearance in the sense of the invention means that the surface has a uniform color or pattern. However, it also means that if the surface has a pattern or grain, that pattern or (unsymmetrical) grain extends over the entire surface or at least a substantial portion thereof.
  • Computertechnisches detecting in the context of the invention is the detection of damaged areas, such as discoloration, cracks, deviations in the pattern or a grain, damage caused by knotholes or the like, especially in naturally occurring materials.
  • an opto-electronic detection and evaluation should be carried out with an optical detection of a surface area to be repaired and an electronic evaluation.
  • the detection is carried out by electronic devices, such as scanners or sensors, for example color sensors.
  • the data obtained is forwarded to a computer, which is provided with appropriate software which is suitable for evaluating the collected data and further processed.
  • a partially mechanized method is understood as meaning, for example, the entry of an object into a measuring cell which takes place through a collection device.
  • a manual method in the context of the invention means that a fitter supplies the respective object individually to each individual method step.
  • Suitable materials for filling are, for example, resins, synthetic resins, in particular 2-component resins, as well as wood spatulas, namely water or UV-curing system and plastics or similar substances that can be filled or filled in a depression and then harden.
  • the repaired surface areas obtained in this way are provided according to the invention with a printed image, which is adapted in its appearance that of the rest of the surface, or this corresponds.
  • the computer calculates the printed image and prints it by means of a printer.
  • the printer preferably prints the print image directly onto the repaired surface area or onto a support which is subsequently applied to the repaired surface area.
  • the printed images are printed directly on the repaired surface areas, but there are also conceivable applications in which it is useful to first print the printed image on a support, such as a paper or a plastic film.
  • a support such as a paper or a plastic film.
  • These carriers must be adapted to the shape and size of the repaired surface area, they must be cut or punched out accordingly. This operation can also be done by machine.
  • a print image printed on a support can be fixed to the repaired surface area by gluing or similar methods.
  • the printed image is applied by means of digital printing.
  • digital printing the print image is transferred directly from a computer to a press.
  • Suitable printing systems are laser printers or inkjet printers.
  • the printed image is preferably introduced in one operation. Basically, a multiple printing is possible.
  • the print image can consist of several print layers.
  • the repaired surface area also haptically corresponds to the rest of the surface.
  • the repaired surface area is provided with a mechanical embossing.
  • embossing With such embossing, the structure of the rest of the surface can be modeled, so that the repaired surface area is not or haptically difficult to distinguish from the rest of the surface.
  • At least one further layer is applied to the surface.
  • the further coating can be applied to protect or to achieve desired effects over the repaired surface area or over the entire surface of the component.
  • Suitable coatings are (transparent) films or (clear) lacquer layers.
  • the method according to the invention is particularly advantageously applied to edge-profiled floor, wall or ceiling panels. These can be profiled along their longitudinal and / or head sides with a tongue and groove connection, in particular with a so-called click system.
  • the profiling has mechanical locking means on locking tongues or springs. These arrive at in a covering or a lining adjacent to each other arranged components with each other in latching engagement.
  • the printing of the damaged and repaired areas can be done before or after the profiling of the longitudinal or head sides. Appropriately, the repair takes place before the final painting.
  • the object of the present invention is achieved by using the component with the surfaces produced according to the method according to the invention, as a parquet board or as a wooden panel, for interior fittings of buildings or vehicles or in the manufacture of furniture.
  • Components with a surface, which are produced by the method according to the invention can be used for a variety of applications. Especially in the production of wooden floor coverings, it makes sense to remove damaged areas before laying the panels. The same applies to the other applications mentioned above.
  • the object of the invention is achieved by a component whose surface is printed with one or more printed images, wherein the optical design of the printed image or the printed images are adapted to a patched surface area of the optical design of the adjacent surface area.
  • damaged areas are detected by computer technology during the manufacture of parquet. These are drilled depending on the configuration and filled later with the help of a machine with filler or a still good branch is additionally fixed with putty. Again, you get in such places repaired surface areas that are filled, so where the natural look is disturbed. These repaired surface areas are then printed later in the production process in the machine, so that you get the natural look again.
  • For applying the print image is a digital printing.
  • the printed image is adapted to the respective environment. It is therefore not always applied the same print image at a damaged location or at different defective locations, but there is an adjustment via a balancing control on the environment adjacent to the defective location.
  • a discoloration of a real wood overlay can be used. Since wood is a natural product, wood may have brown coal spills or brighter spots, for example. At Maple there are so-called sugar enemas. Depending on the desired use and aesthetic sensation such color enemas are desired or disturbing.
  • additional color inlays or impurities can additionally be applied to adapt or raise the optics in order to obtain a uniform image.
  • the surface can also be digitally printed in this case with the method according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 a typical sequence of the method according to the invention is described by way of example.
  • step 1 the surface of a component, in particular a parquet plank with real wood surface, detected by computer technology. This is done by scanning the surface of the component. The recorded data will be forwarded to a computer.
  • step 2 the data obtained in step 1 is evaluated, i. the computer determines the position of the detected defective locations on the surface of the component.
  • step 3 the damaged areas in the surface are repaired by filling or zubtling of bumps and smoothed by grinding.
  • the individual steps can be carried out in an automated process or manually.
  • the detection of the damaged area to the filling and grinding can be done manually.
  • step 4 the outlines of the repaired surface area and the optical design of the surface area adjoining the repaired surface area are detected by computer technology.
  • the determined data are forwarded to the computer.
  • step 5 the calculator calculates the size and color of the printed image.
  • step 6 the printed image is applied directly to the repaired surface area. Deviating from step 6, the printed image can first be applied to a carrier (step 7).
  • step 8 the carrier is applied with the printed image on the repaired surface area. This process can be done manually or by machine.
  • step 9 the repaired surface area or the entire surface is coated.
  • a transparent lacquer layer or a plastic coating is applied. It is also conceivable to apply several coatings. In addition, coatings can be applied to give the surface a function, such as a lotus effect or a UV protection.
  • the surface in a further step, in the FIG. 1 is not shown, can be provided with an embossing to haptically adapt the repaired surface areas to the nature of the rest of the surface. This step can be done after repairing the damaged areas, directly on the repaired surface area or at a later time in the process flow.
