Description

(54) METHOD OF PRODUCING REINFORCED PLASTIC PANELS (71) We, FORD MOTOR COMPANY LIMITED, of Eagle Way, Brentwood, Essex CM13 3BW, a British Company, do hereby declare the invention for which we pray that a patent may be granted to us, and the method by which it is to be performed, to be particularly described in and by the following statement : This invention relates to a method of producing plastic panels.
Lightweight plastics panels are known which consist of a rigid foamed plastics core having bonded to either side thereof a fibrous reinforcement and an external solid plastics material. Such panels have hitherto been made by bonding the outer layers to the previously produced core by means of adhesives.
An object of the present invention is to provide a method of producing lightweight plastics panels which is simpler and more economical than those hitherto used.
The invention accordingly provides a method of producing a lightweight plastics panel, comprising extruding a foamed plastics sheet, feeding a layer of fibrous re inforcing material onto each face of said sheet as it is extruded, feeding an outer layer of solid plastics material onto at least one face of said sheet, over the respective reinforcing material layer, as the sheet is extruded, and passing the assembly thus formed between at least one pair of cooled rolls to press the assembly together to bond the layers to the sheet.
Embodiments of the invention will now be described, by way of example, with references to the accompanying drawings, in which: Figure 1 is a diagrammatic side view illustrating one embodiment of the invention; Figure 2 is a similar view of a second embodiment; and Figure 3 illustrates the subsequent use of a panel formed by the method of the invention.
Referring to Figure 1, a foamed plastics sheet 10 is extruded by a conventional extruder 12 and slit die 14. The sheet 10 may be foamed by decomposition of a chemical blowing agent or by gas injection, both of which are well known in the art.
The sheet 10 is passed while still in softened form between a pair of cooled rolls 16, together with a fibrous reinforcing mat 18 and an outer film 20 of solid, substantially unfilled plastics material on either side of the sheet 10. The rolls 16 are spaced such that sufficient force is applied to the mats 18 and films 20 to cause the molten foam to penetrate the fibrous mats 18 and adhere to the films 20. The resulting assembly is then cooled by the rolls sufficiently to be stable, and cut to convenient lengths by a guillotine (not shown) to form panels.
The panels have a foamed core of low weight which spaces the reinforcement. By placing the reinforcement near the outer surfaces, a high stiffness with low weight is achieved. The surface film gives an excellent finish which may be left self-coloured or painted.
Each mat 18 may be produced by weaving, knitting, felting or needling, or may comprise fibres bound by a thermoplastic binding medium. The fibres of the mat are suitably glass, carbon, mineral or metallic fibres.
Many of the plastics materials which may be used for the foam are of low viscosity at the extrusion temperature and will not provide a self-supporting sheet between the extruder and the rolls in a horizontal plane. For this reason, the extruder 12 in Figure 1 is oriented vertically and positioned above the rolls 16. In the embodiment of Figure 2, a horizontal extruder 12a is used, but the sheet 10 is again fed vertically to the rolls 16 by diverting the stream through a vertical die 14a. Also in Figure 2, additional cooled rolls 16a are shown which may be provided to obtain the required cooling of the sandwich assembly.
In the embodiment of Figure 2, a single web 22 is applied to each face of the sheet 10. Each web comprises a fibrous reinforcing layer and a solid plastics outer layer.
Such a web may be formed by prelaminating a fibrous mat as used above and a plastics film, or may comprise a fibre-filled sheet with a substantially unfilled face produced by calendering or extrusion, or may comprise a fibre filled extruded or calendered sheet which has been laminated with an unfilled sheet.
In another form of the invention, the solid plastics film may be omitted from one side, particularly where that side is hidden in eventual use. The structural properties of the product remain substantially the same. It will be appreciated that this may be achieved by a modification of the above described processes, with the outer layer on one side omitted.
The foamed sheet may be of any plastics material which meets the temperature requirement of the finished panel. Thermoplastic materials such as polyamides, polypropylene, polyesters, polycarbonates, polystyrenes, and polyethylene oxides are preferred. Reinforcing fibres may be included in the foam to increase resistance to compression or temperature if desired; these may be glass, carbon, mineral or metallic fibres.
The outer layer(s) may consist of any plastics material to which the molten foamed sheet will adhere. This includes thermoplastic materials such as those given above for the foamed sheet and acrylic, polyurethane and alkyd materials.
The panels produced by the above process may subsequently be shaped by reheating to above the softening point of the plastics materials and forming in a cold matched metal tool, suitably at a pressure exceeding 10 kg/cm2. The tool parts are shaped to collapse the foam fully or partially in some areas, such as the areas 30, 31 respectively in Figure 3, while leaving other areas such as 32 expanded to farm rib structures. In such forming, the reinforcing mats should be capable of 2 or 3 dimensional distortion (for single or double curvature) at the forming temperatures.
Panels produced in accordance with the invention are suitable for use in vehicles, for example as deck lids, hood tops, doors, load bearing floor panels, seat shells and body panels.
WHAT WE CLAIM IS:- 1. A method of producing a lightweight plastics panel, comprising extruding a foamed plastics sheet, feeding a layer of fibrous reinforcing material onto each face of said sheet as it is extruded, feeding an outer layer of solid plastics material into at least one face of said sheet, over the respective reinforcing material layer, as the sheet is extruded, and passing the assembly thus formed between at least one pair of cooled rolls to press the assembly together to bond the layers to the sheet.

Also in Figure 2, additional cooled rolls 16a are shown which may be provided to obtain the required cooling of the sandwich assembly.

It will be appreciated that this may be achieved by a modification of the above described processes, with the outer layer on one side omitted. The foamed sheet may be of any plastics material which meets the temperature requirement of the finished panel. Thermoplastic materials such as polyamides, polypropylene, polyesters, polycarbonates, polystyrenes, and polyethylene oxides are preferred. Reinforcing fibres may be included in the foam to increase resistance to compression or temperature if desired; these may be glass, carbon, mineral or metallic fibres. The outer layer(s) may consist of any plastics material to which the molten foamed sheet will adhere. This includes thermoplastic materials such as those given above for the foamed sheet and acrylic, polyurethane and alkyd materials. The panels produced by the above process may subsequently be shaped by reheating to above the softening point of the plastics materials and forming in a cold matched metal tool, suitably at a pressure exceeding 10 kg/cm2.
