Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a floor, in particular to a double-layer composite floor and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of floor manufacturing. Background Art

[0002] Elastomers such as rubber, synthetic rubber, and thermoplastic elastomers have good touch, soft texture, and good elasticity. This makes the boards with elastomeric surfaces have incomparable advantages in decoration compared to other polymer materials.

[0003] The patent application document with the international publication number WO2018 / 154287 A1 discloses a low heat absorption and flame retardant polyurethane wood-like material, and the polyurethane board produced by the material has the characteristics of surface flame retardancy, low heat absorption, antibacterial and soft touch. However, the material belongs to polyurethane foam material. When used as flooring, the bending strength of the polyurethane board is low and the material cost is high. At the same time, since polyurethane is a flammable material, a large amount of flame retardant needs to be added to meet the use requirements. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention aims to solve the above problems and thus provides a double-layer composite floor.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention to solve the above problems is as follows:

[0006] A double-layer composite floor, comprising a hard core layer with a Shore hardness of more than 80HD and an elastic surface layer with a Shore hardness of less than 40HD, wherein the elastic surface layer covers the hard core layer on the upper surface and at least part of the side surface of the floor; a matching structure is arranged between the elastic surface layer and the hard core layer, wherein the matching structure comprises a plurality of unit elements formed on the surface of the hard core layer and a plurality of corresponding elements formed on the surface of the elastic surface layer; the unit element is a strip-shaped structure with a convex or concave cross-section arranged along the length direction of the floor;

[0007] When the cross section of the single element is in a convex shape, the corresponding element is a convex matching element with a concave cross section covering the convexity;

[0008] When the cross section of the unit element is in the shape of a groove, the corresponding element is a groove matching element embedded in the groove and having a convex cross section;

[0009] The material of the elastic surface layer is selected from one or more of natural rubber, synthetic rubber or thermoplastic elastomer;

[0010] The hard core layer is selected from one of metal profiles, wood-plastic hot extruded solid board, wood-plastic hot extruded hollow board, hard foamed self-skinning board, hard foamed co-extruded coated board, and hard foamed co-extruded coated reinforced board.

[0011] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the elastic surface layer and the hard core layer are connected by a matching structure, so it is no longer required that the elastic surface layer and the hard core layer have good compatibility in material selection, which can significantly expand the range of material selection. The material selected for the hard core layer is above Shore hardness 80HD, such as polyethylene, polyethylene mixed with wood powder, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinyl chloride mixed with wood powder or stone powder, and common metals. At the same time, in order to reduce the overall weight of the floor, the hard core layer can also be made into a hollow structure, or the hard core layer can be made into a hard foam filling body. Further, the material of the hard core layer can be a polyethylene wood-plastic material with a hollow structure, a hard polyvinyl chloride foam material, or a metal profile with a hollow structure. Further, the hard core layer is selected from one of aluminum alloy profiles, wood-plastic hot extrusion solid board, wood-plastic hot extrusion hollow board, hard foam self-skin board, hard foam co-extruded coated board, and hard foam co-extruded coated reinforced board.

[0012] The material of the elastic surface layer may be one or more of natural rubber, synthetic rubber or thermoplastic elastomer.

[0013] For the convenience of description, the surface of the hard core layer in contact with the elastic surface layer is hereinafter referred to as surface A, and the surface of the elastic surface layer in contact with the hard core layer is hereinafter referred to as surface B. Surface A has a plurality of unit elements, and surface B has a plurality of corresponding elements.

[0014] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the metal profile is a profile made by metal processing technology and is suitable for use as a hard core layer of a composite floor, such as an aluminum alloy profile. Its upper surface and side surfaces are in direct contact with the elastic surface layer, thus constituting the surface A and having all the characteristics of the above surface A.

[0015] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the wood-plastic hot extruded solid board refers to a solid board prepared by mixing resin raw materials, plant fiber powder and processing aids through a conventional hot extrusion process, and the upper surface and side surface of the board also constitute the surface A and have all the characteristics of the above surface A. In the board, the commonly used plastic is polyolefin, more commonly polyethylene and polypropylene.

[0016] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the raw materials used for the wood-plastic hot extrusion hollow board are the same as those used for the wood-plastic hot extrusion solid board, but the processing molds are different. Because the mold has a core rod extending out of the die opening, the board forms a hollow structure at the corresponding position of the core rod. Similarly, the upper surface and side surface of the wood-plastic hot extrusion hollow board constitute the surface A, and have all the characteristics of the surface A.

[0017] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the rigid foamed self-skinning board is a rigid board prepared by a foaming extrusion process using raw materials containing resin and foaming agent, and the board has a self-skinning layer, and the thickness of the self-skinning layer is usually between 0.1 and 1.0 mm. Because the inventors consider that the mechanical properties of the rigid PU foamed board are low and the cost is high; therefore, in the present invention, the rigid foamed self-skinning board specifically refers to the rigid PVC foamed self-skinning board made of PVC resin. Due to the different properties of PVC and elastomer materials and the poor compatibility between the two, this composite board cannot be produced according to the previous process of PU board, because no matter whether the composite floor is produced by molding or co-extrusion, the elastomer surface layer and the PVC foam core layer will have the problem of weak bonding. In view of this, the present invention sets a matching structure between the rigid core layer and the elastic surface layer; through the mutual interlocking relationship of the above matching structure, the elastic surface layer is firmly bonded to the rigid core layer as the substrate to avoid cracking between the core and the surface layers.

[0018] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the rigid foamed co-extruded coated board is realized by co-extruding and wrapping a layer of rigid plastic layer on the basis of the above rigid foamed self-skinning board; this is based on the fact that the thickness of the self-skinning layer is relatively thin at 0.1~1.0mm, and the mechanical properties need to be improved.

[0019] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the rigid foam co-extruded coated reinforced plate is a reinforced plate with better mechanical properties than the above rigid foam co-extruded coated plate by adding a reinforcing layer between the co-extruded coating layer and the rigid foam core layer of the plate. The reinforcing layer is formed by impregnating glass fiber mesh cloth with resin and then curing; considering the convenience of processing, it is preferably not completely cured, and has a certain degree of flexibility in production, such as the degree of curing can be 92~98%.

[0020] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the matching structure also includes multiple first connection units and multiple second connection units; the first connection unit is formed by the surface of the hard core layer in contact with the elastic surface layer, and is arranged between two adjacent unit components; the second connection unit is formed by the surface of the elastic surface layer in contact with the hard core layer, and is arranged between two adjacent corresponding components; the first connection unit and the second connection unit are matched and arranged.

[0021] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, when the cross section of the unit element is in a convex shape, the convex matching component with a concave cross section has a necking structure;

[0022] When the cross section of the unit element is in a groove shape, the unit element with the groove shape in cross section has a necking structure.

[0023] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the shrinkage structure refers to a component with a horizontal surface having a recessed portion, and the internal space of the recessed portion is wide while the connection between the recessed portion and the horizontal surface is relatively narrow, so a shrinkage structure is formed at the connection, so that after a second component with a corresponding structure is matched with the recessed portion, the second component is difficult to escape from the recessed portion with the shrinkage structure, thereby greatly improving the bonding force between the component and the second component.

[0024] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the surface of the hard core layer in contact with the elastic surface layer and the surface of the elastic surface layer in contact with the hard core layer are provided with the unit components and corresponding components at the transitional connection between the horizontal and vertical directions of the floor.

[0025] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the surface of the first connection unit and the second connection unit is a plane or a surface with a sawtooth cross section. It is a common setting that the surface of the first connection unit and the second connection unit is a plane, and when the cross section of the surface of the first connection unit and the second connection unit is a sawtooth surface, the contact area between the surface A and the surface B can be significantly increased, and the resistance generated between the elastic surface layer and the hard core layer when subjected to horizontal force can also be significantly increased, thereby improving the bonding force and strain resistance between the elastic surface layer and the hard core layer.

[0026] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the rigid foamed self-skinning board material is composed of a rigid foamed core formed of a first foaming raw material containing a first resin and a skinning layer also formed of the first foaming raw material and covering the rigid foamed core.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the rigid foam co-extruded coated plate is composed of a rigid foam core, a skin layer covering the rigid foam core, and a co-extruded shell covering the skin layer; the rigid foam core and the skin layer are formed of a first raw material including a first resin and a foaming agent, and the co-extruded shell is formed of a second raw material including a second resin and no foaming agent. The second resin and the first resin may be the same or different.

[0028] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the rigid foamed co-extruded coated reinforced plate is composed of a rigid foamed core, a glass fiber reinforced layer and a co-extruded shell, wherein the glass fiber reinforced layer is arranged between the rigid foamed core and the co-extruded shell; the rigid foamed core and the crust layer are formed by a first raw material including a first resin and a foaming agent, and the co-extruded shell is formed by a second raw material including a second resin and no foaming agent; the glass fiber reinforced layer is formed by curing a glass fiber mesh cloth impregnated with a resin. The second resin and the first resin may be the same or different.

[0029] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the foaming agent includes both chemical foaming agents, such as those added to the resin raw material in the form of materials; and physical foaming agents, such as those not added to the raw materials, but introduced into the supercritical carbon dioxide fluid through another inlet of the extruder, and then mixed with the resin raw material inside the extruder.

[0030] In the above technical solution of the present invention, a glass fiber reinforcement layer is arranged in the hard core layer to improve the mechanical strength of the hard core layer, thereby ultimately improving the mechanical properties of the entire board, especially improving the bending modulus of the entire board; so that the entire board still exhibits good bending resistance at a larger span; this can significantly reduce the amount of keels used, bringing great convenience to installation, transportation, and cost control.

[0031] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing the above-mentioned double-layer composite floor.

[0032] A method for producing a double-layer composite floor comprises the following steps:

[0033] a. providing a casting mold, spraying a mold release agent into the casting mold, and pouring a liquid raw material for forming an elastic surface layer into the casting mold after drying to form an elastic surface layer precursor with a thickness of a; the elastic surface layer precursor is an uncured and fluid liquid;

[0034] b. placing the hard core layer having the unit elements on the upper and side surfaces into the casting mold;

[0035] c. applying a pressure to the hard core layer to make it lower in the mold, so that the elastic surface layer precursor rises along the gap between the inner wall of the mold and the surrounding contour of the hard core layer, and at least overflows the unit element on the side surface of the hard core layer, so that the thickness of the elastic surface layer precursor decreases from a to b;

[0036] d. Maintaining the pressure applied in step c to solidify the elastic surface layer precursor in the mold to obtain the double-layer composite floor.

[0037] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the hard core layer is prefabricated and made into a board by a molding method. The advantage of the molding method over other methods is that the pattern or design of the mold can be very clearly copied, so that the appearance simulation of the board reaches an extremely high level, and the grade of the board is significantly improved. The present invention places the hard core layer having the unit element on at least the upper surface and the side surface in the center into a mold containing an elastic surface layer precursor with a thickness of a, and then applies pressure to form a fitting structure with the elastic surface layer and the unit element, and covers the hard core layer, and finally forms a double-layer composite floor with an elastomeric surface layer covering the hard core layer.

[0038] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the thickness of the elastic surface layer precursor in step c becomes b, which means that the original thickness of the elastic surface layer precursor becomes thinner due to coating the hard core layer, so the original thickness is reduced from a to b.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the gaps around the inner wall of the casting mold and the hard core layer are of equal width.

[0040] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the casting mold is a casting mold with a wood texture.

[0041] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the hard core layer is a hard foam co-extruded coated reinforced plate; the equipment used to prepare the hard foam co-extruded coated reinforced plate includes a main extruder, an auxiliary extruder, a co-extrusion die and a shaping die;

[0042] The co-extrusion mold is formed by docking a plurality of mold plates including a mold feed plate, a flow channel forming plate, and a mold discharge plate; the co-extrusion mold is provided with a main flow channel, a reinforcement material channel, and a co-extrusion flow channel, and the main flow channel, the reinforcement material channel, and the co-extrusion flow channel are independent of each other in the mold; the reinforcement material channel includes a first channel and a second channel distributed on both sides of the main flow channel, and the first channel and the second channel form a first discharge port and a second discharge port located on both sides of the main flow channel discharge port on the mold discharge plate; the co-extrusion flow channel forms a surface discharge port on the mold discharge plate, and the surface discharge port is a rectangular ring structure and is sleeved around the main flow channel discharge port, and the first discharge port and the second discharge port are arranged between the main flow channel discharge port and the surface discharge port;

[0043] The surface discharge port is provided with a structure corresponding to the shape of the unit element;

[0044] The reinforcing material channel comprises an input section and an output section, wherein the input section is connected to the output section; the angle between the input section and the main channel gradually decreases along the material feeding direction until it is zero; the reinforcing material feed port of the input section is arranged on the channel forming plate;

[0045] The co-extrusion flow channel comprises a feed section, a casting section and a molding section which are interconnected. The main part of the feed section is arranged on the second flow channel forming plate of the co-extrusion mold, the main body of the casting section is arranged on the first flow channel forming plate of the mold, and the molding section is arranged on the discharge plate of the mold; the feed section forms two branch channels on the second flow channel forming plate, and the casting section is two mutually interconnected inclined channels formed on the first flow channel forming plate; the branch channels are connected to the inclined channels, and the inclined channels are connected to the molding section; the inner end face of the discharge plate of the mold is connected to the outer end face of the first flow channel forming plate, and the inner end face of the first flow channel forming plate is connected to the outer end face of the second flow channel forming plate; the rectangular annular structure of the cross section of the molding section gradually shrinks in size along the discharge direction, and forms the surface discharge port on the discharge plate of the mold;

[0046] The method for preparing the rigid foamed co-extruded coated reinforced sheet is as follows:

[0047] A first raw material including a first resin and a foaming agent is fully mixed and then fed into a main extruder, and the main extruder extrudes the first raw material into a main channel of a mold, and then extrudes the first raw material from the main channel to form a pressure-retaining core;

[0048] At the same time, two glass fiber reinforcement layers are input from the first channel and the second channel respectively;

[0049] At the same time, the second raw material containing the second resin and not containing the foaming agent is fully mixed and fed from the coextrusion flow channel of the coextrusion die through the auxiliary extruder, and extruded from the surface layer outlet to obtain a coextrusion shell with a frame-shaped cross section;

[0050] The pressure-retaining core, the glass fiber reinforced layer and the co-extruded shell are extruded from their respective flow channels to form a mold blank; at the same time, the mold blank is passed into a shaping die, and the pressure-retaining core is foamed in the co-extruded shell constrained by the inner wall of the shaping die in the shaping die to fill the co-extruded shell, and at the same time, the mold blank is compounded and shaped in the shaping die to form the hard core layer; the mold blank is composed of a pressure-retaining core, a glass fiber reinforced layer and a co-extruded shell from the inside to the outside, and a preformed foaming space is provided between the pressure-retaining core and the co-extruded shell.

[0051] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the entire co-extrusion mold is formed by a mold feed plate, a plurality of flow channel forming plates and a mold discharge plate. The mold feed plate and the mold discharge plate are respectively arranged at the two ends of the mold, and the plurality of flow channel forming plates are arranged between the mold feed plate and the mold discharge plate. According to the method of using the co-extrusion mold, the mold plate at one end where the material enters is the mold feed plate, and the mold plate at one end where the product is extruded is the mold discharge plate. The plurality of flow channel plates are arranged in such a way that the first flow channel forming plate is the closest to the mold discharge plate, the second flow channel forming plate is the second flow channel forming plate, and so on. The inner end face of the mold discharge plate refers to a surface of the mold discharge plate facing the first flow channel forming plate, the outer end face of the first flow channel forming plate refers to a surface of the first flow channel forming plate facing the mold discharge plate, the inner end face of the first flow channel forming plate refers to a surface of the first flow channel forming plate facing the second flow channel forming plate, and the outer end face of the second flow channel forming plate refers to a surface of the second flow channel forming plate facing the first flow channel forming plate.

[0052] The above technical solution of the present invention provides a production method in which a glass fiber reinforcement layer is arranged inside a hard core layer. This is difficult for those skilled in the art, because it is generally understood that in order to fuse the glass fiber reinforcement layer with the foaming core, the reinforcing material channel must be connected to the main channel, so that the glass fiber reinforcement layer can be integrated into the foaming layer. The problem with this is that there is a large pressure inside the main channel. Once the reinforcing material channel is connected to the main channel, the pressure will be released in the reverse direction along the reinforcing material channel, and the material in the main channel will naturally be squeezed into the reinforcing material channel, and even further foamed, thereby blocking the reinforcing material channel, making it difficult to continue to input the glass fiber reinforcement layer, forcing production to be interrupted; generally speaking, the mold needs to be disassembled and the reinforcing material channel needs to be cleaned within a very short production cycle. In addition, the hard core layer that is barely produced has premature pressure relief and premature foaming in some areas, which also makes it difficult to control the quality of the hard core layer.

[0053] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the above problems are solved by changing the production method and modifying the mold. It is mainly manifested in the following aspects: in the mold, 1. The main channel is designed to maintain pressure in the entire mold; 2. A co-extrusion channel is added; 3. The reinforcing material channel, the co-extrusion channel and the main channel are independent of each other, and they are merged at the port of the mold discharge plate; 4. A shaping mold is installed at the mold outlet; in terms of method, 1. Abandon the previous idea of ​​forming a composite sheet from the mold outlet, 2. Introduce a co-extrusion shell, so that when the materials converge at the mold outlet, although compounding is not achieved, the automatic assembly required for compounding is achieved, and then enter the shaping mold for compounding. The front half of the shaping mold realizes the compounding of the sheet, and the rear half realizes the shaping of the sheet.

[0054] In the above technical solution of the present invention, the first resin is PVC resin. The second resin is selected from one or more of PVC, ASA, PE, PC, PP, ABS and the like.

[0055] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the sufficient mixing is that the first raw material is mixed in a high-speed mixer at a mixing temperature of 100-130° C. for 10-15 minutes, and then transferred to a cold mixer to be cooled to below 40° C.

[0056] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0057] 1. The present invention provides a matching structure between the elastic surface layer and the rigid foam core layer, so that the elastic surface layer is firmly coated on the rigid foam core layer, so that the present invention has the advantages of both the rigid foam core layer and the elastic surface layer, with high compressive strength and good surface contact;

[0058] 2. The present invention further improves the compressive strength of the composite floor by arranging a glass fiber reinforcement layer inside the rigid foam core layer, and significantly improves the bending modulus of the composite floor, which can increase the span when laying the floor, reduce the amount of keels, reduce the laying cost, and improve the laying efficiency; more importantly, the present invention has better mechanical properties at high temperatures, and can still maintain a bending strength of more than 20MPa at 80°C;

[0059] 3. The present invention provides a method for compounding a rigid foam core and an elastic surface layer precursor, based on which the elastic surface layer precursor can better cover the rigid foam core; after curing, the rigid foam core forms a rigid core layer of the composite floor, and the elastic surface layer precursor forms an elastic surface layer; and the composite floor has the advantage of high integrity;

[0060] 4. The present invention provides a method for producing a rigid foam core, especially a method for producing a rigid foam core with a glass fiber reinforcement layer, which constitutes another technical core of the present invention; the rigid foam core produced by this method can give the composite floor a higher compressive strength, a higher bending failure load and a higher bending elastic modulus;

[0061] 5. The present invention adds a certain amount of wear-resistant additives to the raw materials of the elastic surface layer, so that the elastic surface layer has better surface wear resistance than the prior art while slightly improving the surface hardness.
