Woody molding, it's production system and production method

Abstract

A wood-like molded product which is permitted to have wood-like features without using a natural wood material, and is usable as a bottle case to keep a wine bottle or the like inserted therein, and the like. The wood-like molded product includes: a cylindrical main body (2) which is made of a mixed material containing: fine cellulose powder particles (N) obtained from a wood material; and resin (P), and permits a bottle to be inserted thereinto; and a supporting member (3) provided in the cylindrical main body, to support a bottom face of the bottle inserted in the cylindrical main body.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a wood-like molded product, a manufacturing apparatus for the same and a manufacturing method of the same. BACKGROUND ART [0002] Wines are used as a present for many occasions, and, at home, in restaurants and the like, wines are kept and used as a decoration for the room, by using a wine bottle holder which is made up of linear members, and holds a wine bottle in an inclined state (for example, see Patent Document 1). [0003] Further, wines are kept and used as a decoration for the room, by using, for example, a bottle holder made up of wires to hold two bottles in a state where one is supported on the left side and another on the right side thereof, such that the bottles form an opening which is open upper end (for example, see Patent Document 2). [0004] Furthermore, at home, in restaurants and the like, when wine bottles are kept and used as a decoration, wine bottles are sometimes kept and displayed in a wooden case, a woode...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0014] The wood-like molded product according to the first aspect of the present invention includes: the cylindrical main body made of a mixed material containing fine cellulose powder particles, which are obtained from wood materials, and resin; and the supporting member to support the bottom face of a bottle inserted in the cylindrical main body. Therefore, when chips or sawdust of a building wood material generated at a construction site are used for the wood material for the bottle case, it is possible to avoid cutting natural trees and re-use the resources, as well as to permit the bottle case to have features such as a feel similar to natural wood, that is, wood-like features, and keep a bottle such as a wine bottle inserted in the case. Moreover, since a wine bottle is inserted and kept in the cylindrical main body having wood-like features, the wine kept in the cylindrical main body looks like a more expensive wine than the actual price, due to the wood-like appearance of the cylindrical main body. For example, the wine may look like a wine which costs 5000 to 10000 yen, even when the actual cost of the wine may be 1000 to 3000 yen.

[0033] According to the manufacturing apparatus, the cylindrical main body 2 is produced by: heating and melting the mixed material 112 and subjecting the mixed material 112 to extrusion molding with the extrusion molding device 30 to form the cylindrical extrusion mold product 115; inserting the extrusion mold product 115 into the opening portion 41 of the sizer member 40, of which inner diameter is substantially the same as the outer diameter of the extrusion mold product 115, to adjust the sectional shape and the dimensions of the extrusion mold product 115; and then cutting the extrusion mold product 115 with the cutting device 117 into a predetermined length. In this way, it is possible to permit the cylindrical main body 2 of the wood-like molded product (for example, bottle case 1) according to any one of claims 1 to 3 to have wood-like features while there are advantages in view of re-use of resources, and to have a suitable shape and dimensions. Thus, the product value is increased.

Problems solved by technology

Moreover, since a wine bottle is inserted and kept in the cylindrical main body having wood-like features, the wine kept in the cylindrical main body looks like a more expensive wine than the actual price, due to the wood-like appearance of the cylindrical main body.
