Definitions
- a building panels a method to produce of floor panels and a wooden based floor panel, with reduced weight and material content.
- the disclosure generally relates to the field of forming of panels, e.g. building panels. More particular, the disclosure relates to a method of forming floor panels and floor panels produced by the method.
- Embodiments of the present invention are particularly suitable for use in floating floors, which are formed of floorboards which are joined mechanically with a locking system and are made up of one or more upper layers of laminated
- a decorative paper 2b and a wear resistant transparent overlay paper 2a are
- thermosetting resin such as melamine
- melamine resin general called backing
- the core 3 with the upper 2 and lower 4 layers is moved into a press 5 and pressed under heat and pressure such that the thermosetting resins are cured and the layers are attached to the core as shown in figure 1 b.
- Typical press parameters are 40 bar pressure and a temperature of 160-200 C° with a pressing time of 12-30 seconds.
- This production method and product produced by such methods are generally referred to as the DPL process and DPL products (Direct Pressure Laminate)
- the upper and lower surface layers have generally at thickness of 0, 1 - 0,2 mm
- HDF High density fibreboard
- wood fibre and a thermosetting resin that also is cured by heat and pressure to a board with a thickness of about 6 - 12 mm and a density of about 800 kg/m3.
- the most common floor size is a rectangular panel of 1 ,3 * 0,2 m with a thickness of about 8 mm.
- the panels are packed and supplied in a packet that contains about 10 panels with a floor area of about 2 m2.
- the weight of each packet is about 16 kg.
- Recently new floor panels with a wood powder based surface and backing have been developed.
- the paper is replaced with a powder backing 4 comprising wood fibres and melamine particles that is scattered on one side of a core 3 and a powder based surface layer 2 comprising wood fibres, thermosetting resins, preferably melamine particles, aluminium oxide particles and colour pigments, is scattered on the other side of the core that generally is a HDF board.
- the scattering is made by rollers and brushes and very accurate layers of about 100 - 800 gr/m2 may be scattered with high precision on the HDF core material that generally has a thickness of about 7-10 mm.
- the surface 2, the core 3 and the backing 4 are pressed under heat and pressure in a continuous or discontinuous press 5 to obtain a product with a paper free and solid surface layer and backing.
- the pressed powder based layers may have a thickness of about 0,2 - 1 ,0 mm.
- Typical press parameters are similar to conventional laminate flooring and may be a pressure of 40 - 80 bar and a temperature of 160-200 C° with a pressing time of 10 - 40 seconds.
- Such wood fibre based floors generally referred to as WFF floors, have considerably better properties than traditional laminate floors since a thicker and more impact and wear resistant surface may be produced in a cost efficient way.
- a laminate floor with a paper based surface layer may have a powder based sub layer under the decorative paper in order to provide better impact resistance and deeper embossing.
- the paper backing may be replaced with a powder backing.
- the sub layer may be used to impregnate the decorative paper during pressing when the resins from the sub layer penetrate into the decorative paper.
- WFF floor may also have several different layers on the upper side for example a high quality top layer 2a and a more cost efficient sub layer 2b under the top layer.
- the sub layer may comprise lower resin content and no aluminium oxide particles are needed.
- a common feature for the paper or powder based surface layers, the paper or powder based backing layers and the HDF core is that all these materials comprise wood fibres and thermosetting binders, preferably melamine or urea, and that they are cured by heat and pressure.
- the wood fibres may be of the same type.
- the layers are exposed to a first shrinking when the thermosetting resin in the upper and lower layer cures during pressing.
- the HDF core is also heated and becomes soft and easy to bend.
- the backing layer balances the tension that is created by the surface layer and the panel is substantially flat with a small convex backward bending when it leaves the press.
- the second temperature shrinking when the panels is cooled from about 160-200°C to room temperature, is also balanced by the backing layer and the panel 1 is essentially flat.
- a small convex backward bending is preferred since this counteracts upward bending of the edges in dry conditions when the relative humidity may go down to 20% or lower during wintertime.
- This essentially flat pressed board comprises tension forces caused by the shrinking of the surface and balancing layers.
- the board is generally cut and formed into several floor panels with locking systems on long and short edges as shown in figure 1 c.
- the locking system comprises generally a tongue 10 and a tongue groove 9 for vertical locking and a strip 6 with a locking element 8 that cooperates with a locking groove 14 for horizontal locking.
- the surface layer 2 has about the same length and width as the backing layer 4 as shown in figure 1 d.
- the locking system may be formed in one piece with the core. Alternatively separate materials may be used to form for example the tongue 10 and/or the strip 6.
- the prices for wood fibres and thermosetting resins are increasing and major increases are expected in the future due to shortage and the possibility to use wood fibres for energy production.
- the problem with the present laminate and WFF floors is that they must have a high density core such as HDF that is needed for the stability, impact resistance and the strength which is needed to resist the heat and pressure from the pressing operation.
- the panels must have a minimum thickness and a core with high shear strength in order to allow the forming of a locking system with sufficient strength and geometry that allows easy installation.
- grooves may be formed on the rear side of solid wood floors mainly in order to increase the flexibility of the panel. Such panels are easier to glue down to the sub floor. Grooves at the rear side of the panels are not used in laminate and WFF floors, which are installed with mechanical locking systems. The main reason is that such groove will have a negative impact on the stability of the panel and on the locking system since material will be removed from the balancing layer and the lower parts of the locking system.
- the visible surface of the installed floorboard is called “front side” or “surface”, while the opposite side of the floorboard, facing the subfloor, is called “rear side”.
- the starting board material that is used as a base material is called “core”.
- the core When the core is coated with a surface layer closest to the front side and preferably also a balancing layer closest to the rear side, it forms a semi manufacture, which is called “ a board” that in a subsequent operation generally is divided and machined into a plurality of "floor panels”.
- horizontal plane is meant a plane, which extends parallel to the outer part of the surface layer. Immediately juxtaposed upper parts of two
- joint edge The outer parts of the floorboard at the edge of the floorboard between the front side and the rear side are called "joint edge”.
- the joint edge has several 'joint surfaces" which may be vertical, horizontal, angled, rounded, beveled etc.
- locking system co-acting connecting means, which connect the floor panel vertically and/or horizontally.
- mechanical locking system is meant that joining may take place without glue.
- up or upward means toward the surface and by “down or downward” means toward the rear side.
- inwardly is meant towards the centre of the floorboard and by “outwardly” means in the opposite direction.
- carving is meant a method to form a groove or a protrusion on an edge of a panel by carving a part of the edge to its final shape by one or several carving tool configurations comprising several non-rotating and fixed chip- removing surfaces located along the feeding direction
- An objective of embodiments of the present invention is to provide laminated panels comprising thermosetting resins and a method to produce such panels with the aim to reduce the weight and material content of such panels, especially floor panels, and to combine such cost saving and material reducing methods with a high quality locking systems and a core that provides sufficient stability which is needed in the pressing operation and when the floor is used.
- a further objective is to provide solid wood floors with reduced weight and material content and increased stability.

- the core grooves may be formed prior to the forming of the locking system on long or short edges.
- the core grooves may be formed by a jumping tool comprising several rotating saw blades or a carving tool.
- the pressed board may be more convex than the floor panel.
- the core grooves are used to create wood fibre material that may be used in a second step to form the upper or lower layers of the floor panel.
- the material that is removed from the core when forming the core grooves reduces the weight of the panel in spite of the fact that the original panel thickness is maintained and that a panel which is thicker than the original core may be formed by using the chips from the forming of the core grooves.
- the whole floor panel including the upper and lower layers may be formed by materials comprising the material from the core.
- the core and the layers may, as an alternative, comprise a thermoplastic material, such as PVC, PET or vinyl, preferably provided with a filler, and the chips created are, for this alternative embodiment, plastic chips.
- the locking system may, as an alternative, comprise a protruding strip at the first or the second panel edge and a recess on a lower side of the other of said first or second panel edge.

- the core grooves may be formed after the dividing of the board into several floor panels.
- Figs 1 a-d illustrate known technology.
- Figs 2a-d illustrate a floor panel according an embodiment to the invention.
- Figs 3a-e illustrate alternative embodiments of the invention.
- Figs 4a-d illustrate forming of a floor panel according to an embodiment of the invention.
- Figs 5a-e illustrate embodiments of core grooves.
- Figs 6a-e illustrate balancing of a panel with core grooves and core
- FIG. 7a-c illustrate embodiments of tools to form core grooves.
- Figs 8a-c illustrate embodiments of cost efficient locking systems that may be combined with core grooves.
- FIG. 2a A first embodiment of floorboards provided with a mechanical locking system according to the invention is shown in figures 2a - 2d.
- the floor panel comprises a locking system on long 1 a, 1 b and short 1 c, 1 d edges.
- Figure 2a shows the front side with the surface layer 2
- figure 2b shows the rear side with the backing layer 4.
- the area of the surface layer A' is essentially the same as the area A of the backing layer 4.
- Figure 2c shows that essentially vertical core grooves 19a, 19b, with an opening toward the rear side or the panel, may be formed on the rear side in the backing layer 4 and into the core 3 that may be a wood based board such as for example HDF, chipboard or plywood.
- the core may also comprise plastic material.
- Such forming may be made with rotating saw blades 20a as shown in figure 2d. Carving may also be used.
- the panels are generally machined with the surface layer 2 pointing downwards.
- the jumping saw blade is displaced towards the panel 20a from above, or below if the surface layer 2 is pointing upwards, and away from the panel 20c when the panel moves relative the rotating saw blades.
- Several core grooves 19a, 19b are formed that in this preferred embodiment are located inwardly from the edges and preferably also inwardly from the vertical plane VP such that they do not intersect any part of the locking systems on the long and short edges.
- the grooves 19 may also be formed with fixed or jumping non-rotation carving tools.
- the forming of the grooves creates wood chips 21 that according to
- embodiments of the invention may be milled and sieved to wood powder that may be mixed with thermosetting resin and scattered on a core to form the surface and/or backing layer.
- the core grooves are mainly used to provide wood fibre material that may be used in the upper 2 or lower 4 layers in order to save material. They may also be used to decrease the weight of the floor panel.
- Figure 3a-3e show that the core grooves 19 may be formed with many different geometries and patterns.
- the core grooves 19 may have different widths as shown in figure 3b and the groove length may be smaller than the length BL of the backing layer. They may be discontinuous as shown in figure 3c and 3d and they may extend from one edge to the other edge as shown in figure 3e.
- the grooves may also be located mainly at the outer parts of the backing layer and there may be a middle area MA without any grooves. This may be used to increase the stability of the panel and to reduce the negative impact on the backing layer when parts of the backing layer are removed.
- the grooves may be formed along the long sides and/or along the short sides.
- the panels may also be square.
- the core grooves reduces the area A of the backing layer.
- the area A of the backing layer is in the shown embodiments about 60 % - 85 % of the area A of the surface layer. This means that the balancing layer will lose 40 -15% of its strength. A thicker backing layer or increased resin content may compensate such reduced backing area.
- Figure 4a- 4d show forming of a floor panel 1 according to embodiments of the invention.
- a wood powder based sub layer 2b is applied on a core 3.
- Figure 4b shows that a surface layer 2 comprising a top layer 2a of wood powder or a decorative paper and overlay may be applied on the sub layer 2b.
- a powder backing layer 4 may be applied on the rear side of the core 3.
- Figure 4c shows the forming of a core groove 19 that creates chips 21 . Such chips may be milled, sieved and mixed with thermosetting binders. This material may be scattered on the core to form the wood based top layer and/or sublayer and/or backing layer as shown in figure 4b.
- the locking system 10, 9, 6, 8, 14 is formed as shown in figure 4d.
- the milling or carving of the core grooves may be formed after pressing and prior to the sawing the large board into individual panels, after sawing but prior to the forming of the locking system, after the forming of the locking system on two opposite edges for example the long edges or as a final operation after the forming of the locking system.
- Such production steps may be combined and some grooves made be formed in several production steps.
- the core grooves may easily provide sufficient wood fibre material for the various layers described above.
- the cured thermosetting resins from the chips are compatible with the melamine powder that is mixed into the wood powder and no separation of fibres and cured resins is needed.
- the backing and the surface may comprise new virgin thermosetting resins and already cured resins.
- Figures 5a - e show different preferred geometries of the core grooves that may comprise a vertically extending groove depth GD of for example 0, 1 - 0,5 times the floor thickness T, a groove width GW of about 0,5 - 1 times the floor thickness T and there may be a horizontally extending space S between the core grooves of about 0, 2 - 1 times the floor thickness T as shown in figure 5a.
- the core grooves may have different shapes and the inner core grooves 19b may be formed with a smaller groove depth GD than the outer grooves 19a in order to increase the stability of the panel.
- Core grooves 19c may also be formed with an undercut by for example a carving tool 20.
- Core grooves with a groove depth GD of for example 0,8 times the panel thickness T may be formed in wall panels where the requirements on the impact resistance are much lower than in for floor panels.
- Figures 5c - 5e show the core grooves 19 seen from the long edges.
- the panels have a fold down locking system on the short edges 1 c, 1 d with a flexible tongue 10 that allows locking with vertical folding.
- Figure 5c shows a core groove 19 with a groove length GL which is smaller that the distance between the locking systems at opposite short edges.
- Figure 5d shows that the core grove 10 is curved at one short edge 1 d and parallel with the surface at the other edge 1 c such that it intersects a part of the locking groove 14.
- Such embodiments allows that the jumping tool have to be displaced during forming only when the forming of the core grooves 19 starts or ends.
- Figure 5e shows a core groove 19 that is formed with a fixed tool and that intersects the locking strip 6 and the locking groove 14.
- the core grooves may provide sufficient material to for example produce a 0,5 mm backing layer and a 0,5 mm sub layer.
- a 7 mm HDF core may be used to produce an 8 mm floor panel by using the material from the core to form the backing layer and preferably at least parts of the surface layers. This may result in a material saving and weight reduction of about 15 %.
- the core grooves may be filled with material that preferably is cheaper than wood and/or that gives the floor other properties such as for example an increased sound reduction.
- the chips may of course also be used completely or partly to create thermal energy.
- Embodiments of the invention may therefore also be used in floors that comprises a wood based core and where the core groves are used for weight reduction and the chips for energy or as filler in various applications.
- Forming of core groves after pressing provides the advantage that the backing layer counteracts the shrinking of the top layer during pressing and cooling and the pressed board is at this production stage not effected by the core grooves that are formed in the floor panel after the pressing operation.
- the forming of the core grooves removes a part of the balancing layer and this may result in that tension is released and that the panel edges bend upward after the forming of the grooves.
- Such a panel will not be completely flat and may be slightly concave along the length and the width.
- Figures 6a - 6c show that such problems may be counteracted and completely eliminated if the large board is formed with a pre tension backwards that is adapted to the dimensional changes caused by the forming of the core grooves as shown in figure 6a.
- the pretension may be accomplished for example by a thicker backing layer that may comprise more resins and that may be cured at a higher temperature than the surface layer.
- Such a production method is characterized in that the board, when pressed and cooled, has a larger backwards bending than the final floor panel with core grooves on the rear side.
- Figure 6c shows that the core grooves may be covered with a separate covering layer 23 for example a paper, a plastic foil, foam, cork or a wood veneer. This may be used to hide the groves, to provide a moisture sealing or to reduce sound.
- the core grooves according to embodiments of the invention may therefore also be used in veneered floors where an upper and lower wood veneer is glued to a wood based core such as plywood, HDF or a chipboard.
- Figure 6d shows that the method to form core grooves 19 may also be used in solid wood floors where core grooves 19 are formed in the solid wood body 3, preferably along the fibres 24 in the length direction of the panel.
- a wood veneer or a wood sheet may be used as a covering layer 23 to cover the opening 25 of the core grooves 19.
- Such wood based covering layer 23, that may have a thickness of for example 0,5 -1 ,0 mm or more, may also provide stability and may counteract bending and warping.
- the moisture content of the veneer may be adapted to the moister content of the solid wood body such that a tension is obtained when the veneer or the wood sheet shrinks.
- Figure 6e shows a wood based floor panel having an upper 2 and a lower 4 layer of solid wood.
- the layer may be made of different wood types that are glued to each other.
- the lower layer 4 comprises cavities 26.
- the upper layer may form an upper part 27 of such cavities.
- the cavities may also be formed in the upper layer and the lower layer may form a lower part of such cavities.
- the different wood types that are glued to each other may have about the same thickness.
- the locking system may be formed partly or completely in the lower layer 4.
- Core grooves 19 with an opening that points downwards may also be formed in the lower layer 4.
- the embodiment shown in fig 6e may comprise HDF boards, instead of the solid wood layers, that may be formed and glued together in the same manner as described above.
- Such a combination core may be laminated as a conventional solid HDF board. This method is particularly suitable to be used for thicker laminated panels of a thickness of about 8-12 mm.
- Core grooves or cavities formed in solid wood provide the advantages that the weight of the solid wood floor may be reduced and increased stability may be obtained.
- the chips from the core grooves or cavities may be used for thermal energy or to produce wood fibres for other powder based floors or fibre based boards such as particleboards. It is also possible to mix the wood chips with a binder and to produce an artificial wood veneer that may be handled as a separate layer and glued against the opening of the core grooves.
- the same technology may be used in a floor with a plywood based core and a veneered surface layer.
- Figure 7a shows a tool 20 comprising several rotating saw blades that may be used to form core grooves 19.
- Figure 7b shows a carving tool 20 with several carving teeth 20a-d that are offset horizontally.
- the carving tool is preferably fixed in the horizontal direction and the panel is displaced against the carving tool in the feeding direction FD against the tool.
- Each tooth may carve about 0,3 -0,5 mm in HDF material.
- the groove may be V or U shaped or even undercut with an inner part that has a larger horizontal extension perpendicular to the groove length than the opening.
- Figures 8a -8c show that further cost savings may be reached with locking systems that are adapted to be separated from the large board with overlapping edges OL and with a non liner cut that preferably is made with carving tools 20a, 20b.
- Figure 8a shows a locking system, which comprises a protruding tongue 10 and a protruding strip 6 on the same edge. Such joint geometry may be used to accomplish a considerable reduction of the material waste W that is caused when the panels are cut and when the locking systems are formed.
- Figure 8c shows that the rear side 6a of the strip 6 may be formed such that the rear side of the strip is inclined upwards and such that an outer part of the strip is closer to the surface than an inner part.
- All such forming and material waste may be used to provide wood fibres that may be used in in upper or lower layers of a panel.
- Core grooves may be combined with non-linear separation and locking systems that make it possible to divide the board into several panels that have geometry such that they may be positioned in the same horizontal plane HP with overlapping edges. It is possible to form the whole floor panel from the wood material obtained from the core of other floor panels. Only melamine powder has to be added into the mix. The upper layer may be harder than the core since a higher density may be created during the pressing of the powder mix.
- Such panels may be formed with embossed structures and may be painted, lacquered or digitally printed in the factory or panted and/or lacquered after installation.
