Benefits of technology

[0013]The radiant rigid foam panel may be also be used to add insulation to an existing interior wall where it may be hard to add insulation to the existing wall which may be very useful in older structures. In this appli...

Problems solved by technology

Purchasing, handling and applying the furring strips are costly and time consuming.
Secondly to finish the rigid panel there is considerable cost and time for purchasing, transporting, handling and hanging the sheetrock or other wall covering.
In an interior application if a rigid foam panel could be...

Embodiment Construction

[0021]FIG. 1. shows in a cross sectional perspective view a finishable rigid radiant foam panel 10 with the 6 to 8 mill finishable reinforced surface 11, the tapered long edge indentures 12, the foam core 13, and the radiant reflective surface 14. Shown adhered on the radiant reflective surface 14 are the placed foam air spacers 15 that are spaced as needed depending on the roughness of the wall surface.

[0022]Shown in FIG. 2 in an overhead cross sectional view is the finishable rigid radiant foam panel 10 attached to a masonry wall or other wall surface 16. Foam air spacers 15 are shown adhered to the panel's radiant reflective surface 14 that have been pressed against the wall surface 16 with the freshly applied approximately ½ bead thick foam adhesive 17. The foam adhesive 17 is shown adhered to the wall surface 16 and the foam panel's reflective surface 14 with the two surfaces kept approximately ¾ inches apart by the foam air spacer 15 creating the air space 18. Sheetrock tape 1...

Abstract

A rigid faced foam cored panel system utilized to produce an insulating finishable surface in interior and exterior applications. The long edges of the rigid foam panels may be indented to form a recessed space for tapping, applying joint compound and assisting in achieving a level finished surface. The inside surface of the rigid foam panel may be radiant reflective with air spacers attached to the reflective surface to produce the needed air space for effective radiant heat reflection. The interior application may entail using the rigid foam panel both as insulation and as a finishable varied color painted or textured wall or ceiling surface. In exterior wall or other exposed surface applications the insulating rigid foam panel may be covered with moisture resistive coverings such as stucco style textures.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates to an assembly of laminates and foam filled sheet products, both decorative and structural, and more particularly it relates to rigid, usually fiber reinforced sheets of foam which are particularly useful in thermal insulating applications and in most applications have a finishable face on at least one side and may have an effective radiant reflective surface upon the other face.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Foam products have been reinforced and laminated to various facings to give them added strength or other desirable physical properties which the foam is incapable of providing. These foam products have become increasingly useful in the building industry since they possess strength coupled with relatively low density and thus are well suited for use as core materials in sandwich type laminates. The rigid foam laminates can be excellent heat insulators because of their fine closed cell structure. Many different techniques have ...
