Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 1 and to a packaging according to the preamble of claim 2, as well as to a packaging material according to the preamble of claim 12.
  • plywood boards are used as protective boards in plywood board packagings delivered from plywood mills to protect the stacks of plywood boards from impacts and wearing.
  • plywood made of worked soft wood that is delivered to furniture industry must be well protected during transport against impact-type loads, wearing and scratches.
  • a protective board made of plywood must contain at least three layers of veneer to attain sufficient endurance against the loads effective on the packagings during transport and handling.
  • Plywood boards are often used in packagings of various other such products that require good resistance to impact-type loads, wearing and scratches during their transport and storage.
  • Protective boards made of plywood have typically been used as the surface on which product and order information can be marked up in the packaging.
  • plywood boards are well suited for use as protective boards in packagings requiring resistance to wearing, scratches and impact-type loads.
  • one drawback relating to their use is that plywood is relatively expensive, and thus often too valuable a material to be used as a packaging material.
  • plywood boards manufactured at a plywood mill are used as a packaging material, the use of plywood boards for such a purpose consumes the production capacity of the mill itself.
  • the plywood mill cannot sell the plywood boards used as protective boards either, wherein the use of plywood manufactured in the mill for this purpose also weakens the sales margin of the plywood production.
  • Plywood laminated of several veneer layers is also a relatively heavy material, wherein the increase in weight resulting thereby also increases the freight costs of the products packed in this way.
  • the purpose of the invention is to introduce a protective board which is suitable for use as a packaging material and which is more suitable as a surface for various markings made on packagings, such as product and order information.
  • the protective board used instead of the previously used plywood containing at least three veneer layers is a protective board made of a packaging material formed of one naturally curved veneer coated on both sides with a film-like or fibrous reinforcement material.
  • the term "veneer” refers to a solid, jointed and/or scarf jointed veneer.
  • Such veneer is nowadays produced by rotary- cutting or slicing, but the veneer may also be produced by cutting the veneer from a tree in the direction of the radius of the tree trunk.
  • the veneer also has a naturally curved shape (typically at least in the direction perpendicular to the grain). This means that it is often not at all necessary to straighten the veneer before attaching the reinforcement materials on the surfaces of the veneer. It can be said that the veneer has a naturally curved shape also when it has been partly straightened so that the natural curvature of the veneer still remains to such a degree that the flatness deviation measured therefrom is at least 3 mm/m.
  • flatness deviation refers to the greatest distance of that surface of a one meter long veneer element placed on a planar surface that lies against the planar surface (i.e. the lower surface of the veneer) from this planar sur- face, resulting from the curved shape. It should also be noted that the flatness deviation resulting from the curved shape of the naturally curved veneer may, however, be significantly higher than said minimum value. Typically the flatness deviation defined in the above-mentioned manner is approximately 10 to 50 mm/m for unstraightened veneer.
  • the reinforcement material used as the coating of the veneer refers in this application to a material which is relatively thin when compared to the veneer, and typically made of fibrous, film-like or fabric-like material, but which must have some kind of definite tensile strength in at least one direction of the surface of the veneer to be coated.
  • different kinds of paints and such coatings which do not have tensile strength are thus not reinforce- ment materials referred to in the present invention.
  • the method according to the invention is characterized in what will be presented in the characterizing part of claim 1
  • the packaging according to the invention is characterized in what will be pre- sented in the characterizing part of claim 2
  • the packaging material according to the invention is characterized in what will be presented in the characterizing part of claim 12.
  • the method, packaging and packaging material according to the invention give significant advantages in relation to methods and packagings of prior art. Thanks to the method, packaging and packaging material according to the invention, the protective boards of packagings that require good resistance to impact-type loads, wearing and scratches and in which plywood has currently been used, the amount of veneer required is reduced at least approximately 60%, because in protective boards of prior art that are made of plywood, there are at least three layers of veneer, whereas in the packagings and packaging materials according to the invention the number of veneer layers can be reduced to one.
  • the saving in costs thus attained is significant, as comparison calculations show that the per square price of the protective plywood board produced in a way known at present is 2.1 €/m 2 higher than the per square price of the protective board made of the packaging material according to the invention and used in the packaging according to the invention. Thanks to the method, packaging and packaging material according to the invention, the weight of the packaging is also re- prised and a ready-made base well suited for various coloring agents used for marking purposes (such as for example coloring agents printed by means of ink-jet printers) is attained on the surface of the packaging for markings to be made on the packaging.
  • various coloring agents used for marking purposes such as for example coloring agents printed by means of ink-jet printers
  • the packaging dampens the impacts possibly directed thereon, as the curved protective boards can be positioned on the packaging so that free spaces remain between the products inside the packagings and the protective boards, said free spaces allowing the protective boards to bend when an impact is directed to this section of the protective board. Furthermore, it is an advantage of the method, packaging and packaging material according to the invention that when dyed film-like or fibrous materials are used for coating the veneer, it is easier and less expensive than before to attain the desired color for the packagings, and thus the outer appearance of the packagings becomes more homogeneous.
  • veneer coated with a film-like or fibrous reinforcement material it is easier than before to modify the qualitative properties of the packagings, such as their resistance to impacts, wearing and moisture to meet the requirements set by the mode of transport and transport conditions. Thus, it is easier than before to dimension the packaging qualitatively to meet any given need.
  • Fig. 1 shows a diagonal top-view of the packaging manufactured in accordance with the method according to the invention
  • Fig. 2 shows a principle drawing illustrating the structure of the packaging material used in the packaging according to Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 1 shows a packaging 1 according to the invention that has good resistance to impact-type loads, wearing and scratches.
  • the packaging 1 con- tains plywood boards 3 made of machined spruce veneer.
  • the purpose of the packaging is to protect these spruce plywood boards 3 against impact- type loads and scratching loads caused by normal handling during storage and factory delivery.
  • the packaging according to Fig. 1 is a so-called normal packaging of plywood boards, having no protective boards at the ends.
  • the packaging according to Fig. 1 comprises a protective board 2a for the upper surface, a protective board 2b for the lower surface and protective boards 2c and 2d for the side surfaces parallel to the longer side of the plywood boards 3.
  • the packaging 1 also comprises strapping bands 6, supporting timbers 4 attached under the protective board 2b for the lower surface, middle beams 5 on top of the upper surface and strapping bands 7 tightened around the supporting timbers 4, middle beams 5 and the protective boards, by means of which the supporting timbers 4 have been tightened against the bottom surface of the protective board 2b for the lower surface and the middle beams 5 against the top surface of the protective board 2a for the upper surface.
  • the packaging 1 also comprises strapping bands 8 parallel to the longer side of the plywood boards 3, the purpose of which is to hold the plywood boards stationary in the direction of their longer side. Furthermore, there are edge shields 9 between the strapping bands 6 and the edges of the packaging in the longitudinal direction and edge shields 10 between the strapping bands 8 and the edges of the packaging in the width direction. The purpose of the edge shields 9 and 10 is to distribute the tension forces caused by the strapping bands evenly on the edges of the packaging so that the loads directed to the edges of the packaging as a result of the strapping bands 6 and 8 extending via the edges would not damage the protective boards 2a-d or the plywood boards 3 contained in the packaging!
  • Fig. 2 illustrates the structure of the protective boards 2a-d used in the upper, lower and side surfaces of the packaging.
  • the protective boards have been made of plywood board containing typically at least three layers of veneer laminated on top of each other.
  • the packaging material according to Fig. 2 used as a protective board comprises one layer of veneer 11 , which in this case is 3.6 mm thick spruce veneer.
  • kraft paper sheets 12 and 13 have been glued on the upper and lower surfaces of the veneer as a reinforce- ment material, said kraft paper sheets having the same dimensions as the upper and lower surfaces of the veneer.
  • the kraft paper sheets 12 and 13 have been glued with two-component dispersion-type adhesive.
  • the cutting and glueing of the kraft paper sheets can be easily automatized so that the kraft paper coatings formed of kraft paper un- wound from a roll can be attached on the surface of the veneer without manual work. Furthermore, it is not necessary and not even recommended (in the above-described manner) to straighten the veneer into a completely straight form before glueing, but the kraft paper coatings are glued on top of the upper and lower surfaces of the veneers that have retained their curved shape as a result of machining (and possible slight straightening or bending) so that the naturally curved veneer stiffens to this shape.
  • the veneers 11 functioning as the frame of the packaging material are made of veneers equal in size with the plywood boards 3 to be packed (in other words for example the veneers used as the raw material for these plywood boards), or the veneers are cut from larger veneers into a suitable size for example by means of a circular saw, bandsaw or other suitable cutting method. In industrial production the cutting takes place most advantageously for example by means of a suitable numerically controlled cutting apparatus integrated to the production line of the protective boards.
  • the size of the veneers is in this case defined in such a manner that the veneers forming the upper and lower surfaces of the packaging have the same size as the plywood boards to be packed, and the veneers positioned on the side surfaces are higher than the packed stack of plywood boards, approximately two times higher than the thickness of the finished protective board.
  • the supporting timbers 4 are pine strips of 75 mm x 75 mm
  • the middle beams 6 are veneer slips of 9 mm x 100 mm (cut for example from so-called second rate veneer).
  • the strapping bands 6, 7 and 8 are formed in a way known as such for example from a plastic strapping band strip, which is tightened, fastened and finished at the location of assembling the packaging.
  • the edge shields 9 and 10 are plate pieces in the form of a straight angle that are made of for example PVC plastic, thick cardboard or other similar rather soft and elastic material. They are positioned at the edges of the packaging at that stage when the strapping bands 6 and 8 are tightened.
  • the packaging 1 according to Fig. 1 is mainly assembled in a manner known as such: First, 3 supporting timbers 4 are positioned next to each other on the ground as shown in Fig. 1 so that the strapping bands 7 extending underneath the supporting timbers 4 are arranged to travel in an open state under- neath these supporting timbers 4. Thereafter the protective board 2b forming the lower surface of the packaging is positioned on top of the supporting timbers 4. Then, the strapping bands 8 (open) parallel to the longer side of the packing are positioned on top of the protective board 2b (i.e. on top of the inner surface of the protective board 2b in the packaging). Thereafter the number of plywood boards 4 intended for this packing are stacked on top of each other.
  • the strapping bands 8 parallel to the longer side of the plywood boards are tightened around the stack of boards so that the edge shields 10 are positioned between them and the edges of the stack of boards in the width direction before the final tightening.
  • the protective board 2a forming the upper surface of the packaging is positioned on top of the plywood boards 4 and the protective boards 2c and 2d for the side surfaces are positioned against the side surfaces of the packaging.
  • these protective boards are bound by means of the strapping bands 6 against each other and the plywood boards 3 remaining inside the packaging.
  • the edge shields 9 are positioned between them and the edges parallel to the longer side of the packaging.
  • the middle beams 5 are positioned on top of the protective board 2a forming the upper surface at the location of the supporting timbers 4, whereafter the strapping bands 7 are fastened in such manner that the supporting timbers 4 are tightened against the protective board 2b forming the bottom surface of the packaging and the middle beams 5 are tightened against the protective board 2a forming the upper surface of the packaging.
  • no edge shields are positioned between the strapping bands 7 extending around the supporting timbers 4 and the middle beams 5 and the packing, but the supporting timbers and the middle beams are dimensioned so that they are slightly longer than the shorter side of the packaging, wherein the strapping bands 7 do not load the protective boards 2a-d of the packing directly. It is possible to produce the packaging according to Fig. 1 manually or in an automatic packaging line designed for this purpose.
  • the necessary product and order markings are naturally also made in the packaging. These can be ready-made on the kraft paper attached on the outer surface of the veneer, on the finished protective boards before assembling the packaging or on the finished packaging.
  • the veneer reinforced on both sides with kraft paper and used as a protective board pro- vides, in any case, a good base for making such markings for example with an ink-jet printer, or other similar mechanical marking device. It is also easy to manually make the markings on the packaging with a kraft paper surface in connection with the above-mentioned production stages or afterwards.
  • the packaging may be a packaging of a number of different products, whose structure can vary in many different ways.
  • the outer appearance of the packaging may be rectangular or curved, for example cylindrical, as the packaging material according to the invention has a naturally curved shape and can be easily bent in a direction perpendicular to the grains of the veneer into a shape more curved than its natural curvature, or into a slightly straighter shape (however, it must not be straightened to a completely straight shape, because then the advantage of the slight curvature in the protectiveness of the packaging is lost).
  • the packaging may also comprise the protective boards at the ends of the packaging, wherein in the case of plywood products, the packaging is a so-called fully protected plywood product packaging.
  • These protective boards are most advantageously also made of the packaging material according to the invention produced in the above-described manner.
  • the number and material of the fastening means such as the strapping bands belonging to the packaging, as well as the number and materials of the supporting timbers and middle beams and the edge shields may vary.
  • the products packed in the packaging may also be positioned in the packaging in different ways, next to each other, one after the other or on top of each other
  • the essential part of the packaging is, however, the structure of the packaging material used as a protective board in the packaging.
  • the veneer used as the packaging material may be made of any type of wood. Naturally, the thickness of the veneer in use may vary, if necessary. To attain sufficient rigidity, the veneer should be advantageously at least approximately 1 mm thick. By increasing or reducing the thickness of the veneer it is possible to regulate the protectiveness of the packaging and, on the other hand, the amount of wood required therein.
  • kraft paper it is possible to use various synthetic fabrics or films, such as nonwoven fabrics or films made of PE, PP or PET plastic as a reinforcement material on the surface of the veneer.
  • Various adhesives can be used in the glueing of the reinforcement material.
  • Suitable adhesives include for example different kind of polymer-based adhesives, and UF, RF and PF resin adhesives.
  • the reinforcement material coatings can also be formed on the surface of the veneer by laminating or injecting/casting a hardening liquid, such as hardening thermoplastic on the surface of the veneer.
  • a hardening liquid such as hardening thermoplastic on the surface of the veneer.
  • the film-like or fibrous materials on different sides of the veneer layer do not necessarily have to be of the same material.
  • the packaging material used as a protective board may be implemented for example in such a manner that it contains kraft paper on the outer surface and one of the above-mentioned fibrous or film-like materials on the inner surface.
