Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a flooring panel.
  • Each slat has a length of about 160 mm, a width of about 8 mm and a thickness of about 20-22 mm.
  • Such slats are put side by side in parallel to a length of about 400 mm and are provided with adhesive tape to form a packet or panel with a length of 400 mm, a width of 160 mm and a thickness of 20-22 mm.
  • Such panels are consecutively glued to a sub-floor to form a covering flooring.
  • the flooring When the flooring is completed, it is ground at least two times. A filler material is manually applied over the surface by means of a putty knife or the like, and the flooring is again ground two times. Thereafter, it can be lacquered or oiled to receive its final appearance.
  • the entire laying and surface treatment process is very lengthy and expensive. It may take 5 days to lay a floor of 500 m2, 2-3 days to grind it, 2 days to apply the filler material, 1-2 days to grind again, and 1-2 days to apply lacquer or oil, whereupon a couple of days are needed for drying, i.e., altogether about two weeks.
  • a further disadvantage is of course that grinding dust and noise are spread in the room in question as well as in neighboring rooms.
  • the invention is directed to a manufacturing process for a flooring panel, comprising the steps of:
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a flooring panel obtained by a method according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a view from the right in FIG. 1 (and on a larger scale) of a portion of the flooring panel.
  • a rectangular flooring panel 1 includes a great number of wooden slats 2 with a generally square cross-section, glued to a backing board 3 transversely to the longitudinal direction of the panel 1 .
  • the backing board 3 preferably consists of a plywood board.
  • the panel 1 is on its side or edge surfaces provided with grooves and tongues for enabling connection to other similar panels on a sub-floor or floor substrate to form a wooden floor.
  • Each such flooring panel 1 is manufactured in the following way:
  • the wooden slats 2 (of a kind of wood suitable for flooring purposes) are produced in a dimension of, for example, 190 mm ⁇ 10 mm ⁇ 10 mm. These slats are mixed, so that the final flooring panel 1 provides an heterogenous and lively appearance, and are glued on the backing board 3 .
  • This backing board may have a thickness of 10 mm or more, a length of 1200 mm, and a width of 190 mm and is preferably a plywood board.
  • the slats 2 are glued transversely to the longitudinal direction of the plywood board 1 .
  • a transparent filler material which preferably is quickly hardening and may comprise 1,1-1,4-butandioldiacrylate, is applied over the wooden slats 2 , so that it covers the slats and fills all possible cracks or slots in or between the wooden slats and effectively locks the slats 2 together.
  • One important effect is that it will later be possible to perform a sawing or milling operation without any risk for the slats 2 to break up or break away.
  • the next operation is to saw and/or mill the flooring panel 1 into its final rectangular form with a width of 160 mm or 170 mm.
  • the flooring panel 1 is simultaneously herewith provided with grooves and tongues at all edge surfaces.
  • the filler material on and between the slats 2 will prevent the slats from splintering during this operation.
  • the further step is to grind away the filler material covering the slats 2 down to a clean wood surface, which means that the filler material remains between the slats and continues to provide the above advantages.
  • a final step in the manufacturing process may now be to apply a suitable lacquer in an industrial process, but it is alternatively possible to deliver the flooring panel without any surface treatment.
  • surface treatment for example application of a suitable oil, can be performed after laying the flooring panels to a floor, as is well known in the art.
  • the obtained flooring panels are comparatively heavy, which means that glue may be applied only in dots and does not necessarily need to be applied over the entire substrate. It may even be possible to lay the flooring panels without glue and to rely on the locking obtained by the grooves and tongues of the flooring panels, possibly strengthened by glue therein.
  • the applied filler material will still provide the advantage of keeping the slots 2 together and stabilize the structure.
