Definitions

  • the current invention relates to a panel element, such as a door.
  • the panel element comprises a frame of the kind comprising a number of intercon- nected frame elements and at least one sheet element fastened to the frame.
  • a number of said frame elements are furthermore formed with at least one connection element, said connection elements being connectable to corresponding connection elements of other frame elements.
  • the current invention also relates to a method of assembling a panel element of this kind.
  • Panel elements of this kind are often used as doors. Therefore, in the following, the examples will be of doors. However, the scope of the invention should not be limited to doors, but should extend to other panel elements which can make use of the teachings of the current invention.
  • GB 2293853 discloses an example of such a panel element, in this case a door, wherein the frame elements are brought into contact with each other and then fastened together by a staple.
  • the staples however do not result in a very strong connection between the frame elements since the actual con- nection is only a point connection.
  • the connection between the frame elements is often not very tight, and a gap can result between the frame elements. In this case, for example water and/or cold air can seep into the door. This can lead to poor thermal properties and/or to the destruction of the door.
  • a first aspect of the current invention is therefore to provide a door which can be assembled quickly and with few steps.
  • a second aspect of the current invention is to provide a door as mentioned in the opening paragraph which requires reduced tooling.
  • a third aspect of the current invention is to provide a door where the connections between frame elements are strong and tight.
  • connection elements which are of a form such that two corresponding connection elements are connectable during assembly by relative motion towards each other along a direction vector which is arranged at an angle ⁇ to the normal vector of the panel element, said angle ⁇ being between 0° and 60°.
  • angle ⁇ being between 0° and 60°.
  • the angle ⁇ can be essentially 0°. This provides for a simpler assembly jig and a simpler method of assembly. Furthermore, in another preferred embodiment, essentially all of said frame elements can be assembled along the same direction vector.
  • connection elements can be made in the form of flanges arranged on the sides of frame elements.
  • at least a part of the flanges can be essentially perpendicular to the plane of the panel element. In this way, it is easy to assemble the frame elements in a vertical direction.
  • Two interconnected frame elements can furthermore be connected together with oppositely facing flanges. In this way, a strong and tight connection is established.
  • the panel element according to the invention can be assembled in a method which comprises the steps of: placing a first set of frame elements on a first sheet element, placing a second set of frame elements on said first sheet element in a direction perpendicular to the plane of said first sheet element, whereby a number of frame elements of said second set of frame elements interconnect with a number of frame elements of said first set of frame elements, and fastening a second sheet element to the first and second set of frame elements.
  • This method results in a fast and simple process.
  • the panel element can be arranged in a press and pressed at the end of the assembling process. This can increase the strength of the connections between the elements of the panel element.
  • connection elements In order to form the connection elements, a profile can be cut into at least one side of the connectable frame elements before the frame elements are assembled. In this way, the connection elements can be arranged in a custom manner, allowing for many different forms of panel elements to be produced.
  • Figure 1 shows a front view of a first embodiment of a door.
  • Figure 2 shows a perspective exploded view of the first embodiment.
  • Figure 3 shows a cross section view through one of the corners of the door shown in figures 1 and 2 and according to the section line shown in figure 1.
  • Figure 4 shows a front view of a second embodiment of a door.
  • Figure 5 shows a perspective exploded view of the second embodiment.
  • Figure 6 shows a front view of a third embodiment of a door.
  • Figure 7 shows a perspective exploded view of the third embodiment.
  • FIGS 8-10 show three different embodiments of connection elements according to the invention.
  • Figure 11 shows another type of connection element according to the invention.
  • Figure 12 shows another type of connection element which is assembled at an angle to the panel's normal vector.
  • Figures 1-3 show some different views of a first embodiment 10 of a panel element according to the current invention.
  • the panel element is a door.
  • the door 10 comprises a first sheet element 11 , a second sheet element 12, two vertical frame elements 13 and three horizontal frame elements 14. As can be seen in figure 2 and 3, the frame elements 13,14 are cut with a profile 15 along at least one side. This profile forms a connection element 15,16 which can be connected to a corresponding connection element 16,15 of an- other frame element 14,13. Note that the second sheet element 12 has been hidden in Figure 1 so that the inner details of the door 10 can be seen.
  • Figure 3 shows a section view through one corner of the door thereby showing more details of the two interconnected frame elements.
  • the connection element 15 comprises a tapered flange 17 arranged on one side of the vertical frame element 13.
  • the tapered flange 17 is essentially perpendicular to the plane of the door 10 and extends in an upwards direction (as defined by figure 3).
  • a corresponding connection element 16 is arranged on the end of the horizontal frame element.
  • This connection element 16 comprises a tapered flange 18 which is essentially perpendicular to the plane of the door 10 and extends in a downwards direction (as defined by figure 3).
  • the two connection elements 15,16 are identical and can therefore be inserted into each other as shown by figure 3.
  • the flanges 17,18 are formed by cutting a profile into the side of the frame element 13,14 with a cutting element.
  • the profile is cut along a direction which is essentially parallel to the side of the frame element 13,14.
  • the person skilled in the art should be easily able to cut a profile into a frame element as shown in the figures, therefore more details of the cutting operation won't be provided here.
  • connection elements 15,16 show that the profile of a connection element 15,16 is in the form of a hook which can be connected with a corresponding hook facing the opposite way.
  • connection elements 15,16 of all the frame elements 13,14 are the same and are cut using the same cutting element. In this way, the cost of tooling is greatly reduced. In addition, the logistics of the manufacturing process are reduced since all the profiles of all the connection elements are identical. The resulting joint is also quite strong, since both connection elements are equally strong.
  • Figure 2 shows details of how the door is assembled.
  • the first sheet element 11 is arranged on a table or other support surface (not shown).
  • Glue is applied to the first sheet element 11 on the upwardly facing side.
  • the glue could be applied in a separate machine before the sheet is arranged on the support surface.
  • the glue could also be applied once the first sheet has been arranged on the support surface.
  • a first set of frame elements in this case the vertical frame elements 13, are then arranged on the first sheet element 11. Due to the glue, the frame elements are all placed on the sheet element in a direction which is perpendicular to the plane of the sheet element.
  • the vertical frame elements are all arranged with their connection elements 15 facing upwards.
  • the second set of frame elements 14, in this case the horizontal frame elements 14, are then placed on the sheet element 11.
  • the horizontal frame elements 14 are arranged with their connection elements 16 pointing downwards. In this way, the downwardly facing flanges 18 of the horizontal frame elements are engaged with the upwardly facing flanges 17 of the vertical frame elements 13.
  • glue could also be applied to the connection elements 15,16 of the vertical 13 and/or the horizontal 14 frame elements.
  • the second sheet element 12 is fastened to the frame elements 13,14.
  • glue is used to fasten the second sheet element to the frame elements 13,14.
  • the glue could again, either be applied directly to the frame elements 13,14 or it could be applied to the second sheet element 12 before it is arranged on the frame elements 13,14.
  • the assembled door can then be further processed, for example the outline of the door can be machined, openings for windows, locks and other hardware, can be created and so on. Due to the tapered shape of the flanges, the frame elements will align themselves with respect to each other and are therefore easy to assemble without requiring very high accuracy.
  • connection elements 15,16 are cut into the frame elements 13,14 as previously described.
  • the arrangement of the connection elements 15,16 can be chosen dependent on the desired door type.
  • FIG. 1-3 The door 10 shown in figures 1-3 is just one example embodiment of a panel element according to the current invention.
  • Figures 4-5 and figures 6-7 show two other example embodiments 20,30 of a panel element according to the invention.
  • the second embodiment 20 of a door shown in figures 4 and 5 is very similar to the first embodiment 10 of a door shown in figures 1-3, therefore the same reference numerals will be used for the same elements.
  • the second sheet element 12 has been hidden in figure 4 in order to show the internal details of the door.
  • the second embodiment 20 comprises a first sheet element 11 , a second sheet element 12, two vertical frame elements 13, a set of horizontal frame elements 14,21 and an additional vertical frame element 22 in the lower section of the door 20.
  • the addition vertical frame element 22 increases the strength of the lower section of the door 20.
  • the two lower horizontal frame elements 21 comprise an extra upwardly facing connection element 23 in the form of a profile cut along their inwardly facing sides. These two connection elements 23 connect with the downwardly facing connection elements 24 cut into the ends of the additional vertical frame element 22.
  • the method of assembling the door 20 shown in figures 4 and 5 is almost identical to that of the method described with respect to the first embodiment 10, with the one change that an extra step is needed for placing the additional vertical frame member 22 in place.
  • the two vertical frame elements 13 are arranged on the first sheet element first, followed by the three horizontal frame elements 14,21 , finally followed by the additional vertical frame element 22.
