Mochime wood products

Abstract

We provide wood grain woodwork products. [Solution] This product consists of multiple structural components that have undergone primary processing, where pre-sawn wood is angled at a desired angle (except 0 degrees) relative to the grain direction, followed by secondary processing that leaves at least a portion of the bark intact, as well as auxiliary components added as needed, and fastening components including screws, nails, or dowels. By processing pre-sawn wood at a desired angle relative to the grain direction, the appearance of tree rings and bark can be expressed. This provides a means to combine the product and manufacturing aspects of woodworking products with the appeal of the wood material, creating new value for woodworking products. Furthermore, in today's world where wood is standardized and widely used as a material, there is a sense that people are losing their familiarity with wood. However, directly processing and assembling wood into components in the production area without using standardized woodworking materials is thought to lead to local industrialization in wood-producing areas.

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention relates to woodworking products made from various types of boards and bars that have been primarily processed from raw wood. [Background technology]

[0002] Naturally, many woodworking products are made using wood materials that have been sawn into boards and rods in accordance with JAS standards and various other standards. In today's world, with advances in processing technology and distribution, if you want to use wood, it seems there is no choice but to go through the entire process from sourcing raw materials and parts for products to selling them.

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 6872271 [Patent Document 2] Patent Publication No. 10-235619 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] Wood itself has its own unique characteristics, such as grain, annual rings, and the appearance of the outer surface of the bark excluding the bark. In reality, there are cases where stumps and sliced ​​boards are used individually for ornamental purposes. However, no such woodworking products exist, and even if one were to try to use such materials, they would not be found in commercially available JAS standards or other standards. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] In that case, there is no need for standardized materials; wood can be processed directly at the source. For example, if you cut wood before sawing at a desired angle other than 0 degrees to the grain direction and then at a right angle, you will get a round board, and if you cut it at any angle, you will get an oval board with the growth rings.For rod-shaped materials, you can simply cut thin wood to the required length at 90 degrees to the grain direction. Furthermore, 0 degrees means parallel to the fiber direction, which is no different from general lumber processing, so it is excluded. By combining these to create a product of the desired size and purpose, the wood can be used to create a wooden product that retains the wood grain of the tree rings and outer bark. Even if there are knot holes, they can be filled with transparent resin, allowing the wood to be used for its intended purpose while maintaining its original character. Leaving the outer surface of the bark removed results in woodwork products that retain the wood grain texture of the tree rings and outer bark. According to this invention, it is possible to produce woodworking products without using standardized woodworking materials, while at the same time retaining the characteristics of the material.

[0006] Traditionally, stumps and sliced ​​boards have been used for decorative purposes, but these alone cannot be considered woodworking products. Furthermore, if these were produced using manual or electric motors for personal use, it would not be viable as an industry. Before the product can be planned, the basic requirements for commercialization are low cost and practicality that can be achieved by mass production machines. Mass production machines are machines that can produce multiple or consecutive items with the same settings. To achieve low prices, a band saw that can continuously cut wood at any angle relative to the grain direction is required, but such products are not common. Since a typical band saw is designed to process in the direction of the fiber, it is necessary to take measures on the material fixing part side. This is more a question of demand than technicality. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] The advantages of this invention are: 1. The individuality of wood can be incorporated into the product. This material allows the age of the tree to be expressed through its rings, and the type of tree and the appearance of the outer surface of the bark, excluding the bark, become part of the individuality of the product. 2. Processing wood directly into parts and products without going through standardized woodworking materials is local production and processing, and can also be said to be local industry in wood-producing areas. 3. Industrialization requires a certain level of mass production, but mass production machines are technically possible. Disadvantages 1. Not suitable for large products. It is desirable to narrow down the application to specific fields. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0008] [Figure 1] Figure 1 shows the process of manufacturing woodworking materials into wood grain woodworking products. [Figure 2] Figure 2 shows a section with the appearance of the tree rings and outer bark surface still visible. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] The woodworking product of this invention consists of multiple structural parts that have been subjected to primary processing, in which the wood before sawing is angled at a desired angle other than 0 degrees relative to the grain direction, and secondary processing, in which at least a portion of the outer skin is left intact, as well as auxiliary parts added as needed, and fastening members such as screws, nails, or dowels. Here, primary processing refers to processing that is done directly on raw wood, and secondary processing refers to additional processing that is done on primary processed products to suit their intended use, such as specifying external dimensions, shaping, surface treatment, and chamfering. Since it is a product, the manufacturer determines the design and specifications based on the intended use, which naturally determines the product size. Naturally, the excess will be removed, but at least a portion of the outer skin surface, which is the main requirement of this invention, will remain. This is because if the outer skin were completely removed, the shape and dimensions would be the same as if an equivalent product had been made using JIS-standard materials. Moreover, using JIS-standard materials would be much cheaper and easier to manufacture, so this invention would be meaningless.

[0010] The requirements for the wooden product of this invention are: 1. Before sawing, the wood is set at a desired angle other than 0 degrees relative to the fiber direction. An angle of 0 degrees to the grain direction is excluded as it represents general lumber processing. 2. When secondary processing multiple structural parts that have been primarily processed, at least a portion of the outer skin must remain. 3. Structural parts are the main parts that determine the overall structure. 4. Auxiliary parts are parts that complement structural parts for commercialization. Materials are not specified, and materials that meet JIS standards are also included. Although this contradicts the intent of this invention, it is also important to ensure the creator's freedom of creativity. 5. Fastening materials include screws, nails, dowels, adhesives, etc.

[0011] The processing method is by cutting with a band saw, milling, or the like. Because only minimal processing is required, the surface of the ingredients is exposed to some extent, but on the other hand, this has the benefit of allowing you to enjoy the flavor of the ingredients and the value of being able to express your individuality. Although it is not suitable for various storage furniture such as dressers and chests, or large products, it is possible to use it for small products such as tables, chairs, boards, etc., and we believe that it can demonstrate its value as a product.

[0012] This invention makes it possible to create woodworking products that bring out the individuality and added value of the material. Wood grain shows the annual ring pattern, and heather shows the multifaceted pattern of the outer bark. Once the primary processing is done, the wood grain will naturally appear, but the wood grain cannot be left unless it is intended to be. Therefore, such woodworking products are called wood grain woodworking products.

[0013] The above is about the woodworking products, but it is desirable to go beyond simple woodworking products and combine them with other products, such as clocks and photographs, in order to increase added value. [Example]

[0014] Figure 1 shows the system for commercialization, and Figure 2 shows an example of a part where the appearance of the tree rings and outer bark surface is left intact. (Example 1) [Industrial Applicability]

[0015] Materials used for general woodworking products and wooden houses are made from primary processed wood products that have been sawn into boards and rods based on various standards. These materials are available in a wide variety of types and can meet a variety of needs. However, for some reason, there are no standardized woodworking materials that are angled relative to the direction of the wood fibers. The woodworking products of this invention use materials processed directly from raw materials, so they can enjoy various benefits. 1. You can add individuality to your products. The age of the wood can be determined by its rings, and the type of tree and the appearance of the outer surface of the bark, excluding the bark, contribute to the individuality of the product. 2. Local production and processing is achieved by processing wood directly into parts without using standardized woodworking materials. This is the localization of timber-producing areas, and I believe it can be called local production and industrialization. The disadvantage is that it is not suitable for large products. However, if you narrow down the field, it can be said that its usefulness is great. [Explanation of symbols]
