Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of decorative panels, in particular to a flexible and bendable and twistable solid wood composite panel; the present application also relates to a preparation method of the flexible solid wood composite panel. BACKGROUND

[0002] The solid wood composite panel is a kind of decorative panel, which is prepared by laminating at least two layers of panels. According to design requirements, the multiple panel layers can be of the same wood species or different wood species. For example, the surface plate of a solid wood composite panel is a hard broadleaf wood veneer, and the base plate is a composite base plate composed of low-grade veneers.

[0003] Generally speaking, the greater the thickness of the solid wood composite panel, the less likely it is to warp or tile deform due to changes in the moisture content of the panel or external forces. However, the manufacturing cost is relatively high. Conversely, the smaller the thickness, the more likely it is to deform due to changes in moisture content or external forces, but the manufacturing cost is correspondingly reduced. This raises the requirement for producing solid wood composite panels with smaller thickness from the perspective of improving quality and reducing cost.

[0004] On the other hand, in some paving occasions, such as the renovation of old and dilapidated houses, there are existing paving materials in the ground or wall areas. If a floor or wall panel with a larger thickness is paved on this basis, it will reduce the already small indoor space, and the door height is also insufficient. At the same time, the existing decorative materials paved on the floor or wall area are used as the paving basis, but this basis may not be flat, and it may be time-consuming and laborious to correct its flatness using existing technical means, and it may cause serious indoor pollution. This raises the requirement for producing solid wood composite panels with smaller thickness from the perspective of actual demand.

[0005] The applicant has proposed an invention patent application with the publication number CN117183498A and the title "a very thin multi-layer solid wood composite base material, a preparation method thereof, and a floor". The application discloses a very thin multi-layer solid wood composite base material, which includes a laminated short core layer and a long core layer spaced layer by layer. The total number of veneers of the short core layer and the long core layer is 3, 5 or 7. The thickness of the base material is 2.0-5.0 mm. The short core layer includes a plurality of short core veneers arranged adjacent to each other along the length direction of the base material. The long core layer includes one or more long core veneers arranged adjacent to each other along the width direction of the base material. The thickness of the short core layer is less than or equal to the long core layer. The base plate can be used to prepare a floor (a kind of solid wood composite panel) with a thickness of 6.5-12 mm.

[0006] The above-mentioned solid wood composite board has both low manufacturing cost and good performance. It has relatively low thickness, so the manufacturing cost is relatively low; it also has relatively good deformation resistance, so it is not easy to warp or tile deform when the moisture content of the solid wood composite board changes greatly or under external force. SUMMARY

[0007] The inventor believes that a solid wood composite board with good adaptability should balance the manufacturing cost and the deformation resistance related to moisture change, i.e. dimensional stability, but should retain its property of corresponding deformation under external force. In other words, the thickness of the solid wood composite board should be further reduced and its structure should be improved so that it does not warp or tile deform when the moisture content changes greatly, but can deform correspondingly under external force, which makes the solid wood composite board have qualified dimensional stability and can adapt to the unevenness of the paving surface. Additionally, when the solid wood composite board has a certain degree of flexibility, its paving application is also more universal, such as some broken or curved decorations. The following technical solutions are used in this case: A flexible solid wood composite board, comprising a base plate and a surface plate covering the upper surface of the base plate and being bonded to it, a back groove grid is opened on the lower surface of the base plate, the back groove grid is composed of multiple back grooves, the depth of the back groove is 0-0.5mm less than the thickness of the base plate.

[0008] As a preferred, the thickness of the flexible solid wood composite board is not more than 6.5mm, and the thickness of the surface plate is 1-4mm.

[0009] As a preferred, the base plate is a multi-layer composite board with a 5-layer structure.

[0010] As a preferred, the width of the back groove is 2-5mm.

[0011] As a preferred, 8 back grooves intersect at the center to form a single unit in the shape of a "rice" character, and multiple units form a rectangular array to form the back groove grid.

[0012] As a preferred, the depth of the back groove is 0.3-0.5mm less than the thickness of the base plate.

[0013] As a preferred, a support plug is embedded in the center of the unit; the support plug is an elastic member, which includes a column body, the periphery of the column body extends outward to form 8 extension feet with the same interval angle, the extension feet include a pair of chordwise inserts on the column body and multiple ribs connecting the pair of chordwise inserts.

[0014] As a preferred, the free end of the extension foot is in interference fit with the back groove, the interference amount is 0.2-0.3mm, and the extension line of the pair of chordwise inserts passes through the center of the column body.

[0015] Another aspect of the present application provides a method for preparing the flexible solid wood composite board as described above, comprising the following steps: Step one, water balance step, the moisture content of the base plate and the surface plate is regulated to 6-7% under the environment of 40℃ / 30%RH; Step two, the step of compounding, after the upper surface of the base plate is glued, the surface plate is covered, and the two are bonded under the action of temperature of 80-90℃ and pressure of 1-1.2MPa; Step three, the step of making back grooves, the back grooves are opened on the base plate by cutting.

[0016] As a preferred, the back grooves include a plurality of unit back grooves arranged in a rectangular array, the unit back grooves are mi-shaped grooves; the method further comprises step four, a support plug is embedded in the center of the unit back groove.

[0017] In summary, the flexible solid wood composite board provided by the present application has a certain degree of flexibility and relatively good dimensional stability through the improvement of the structure, specifically through the setting of the back groove grid and the limitation of the depth of the back groove.

[0018] Further, by further reducing the thickness of the flexible solid wood composite board, the manufacturing cost thereof is avoided to be too high, and the flexible solid wood composite board naturally has a certain deformation ability.

[0019] Further, by setting the back groove grid to be composed of continuously repeated mi-shaped units, and further limiting the depth of the back groove, the flexibility of the flexible solid wood composite board can be improved, the toughness is also taken into account, and the dimensional stability of the flexible solid wood board can be improved.

[0020] Further, by the setting of the support plug, the structural strength of the intersection of the back grooves can be improved; at the same time, by limiting the structure of the support plug and the assembly relationship thereof with the back groove, the influence of the existence of the support plug on the deformation response of the flexible solid wood composite board can be avoided.
