Benefits of technology

[0010] To solve the above and / or other problems, the present invention provides a method of manufacturing a solid surface counter top having a simplified manufacturing process so that rapid product manufacturing is possible.

Problems solved by technology

However, the above method requires quite a number of steps such as detaching the protection film in advance, cutting, attaching, round cutting, and sanding and polishing, manufacturing there for is inconvenient and it takes a long time to complete a product.
However, in the above method, since quite a number of steps from the step of detaching the protection film 1a from the raw-material sheet 1 in advance, to the final polishing step are required, manufacturing is inconvenient and productivity is lowered.

Embodiment Construction

[0020] Referring to FIGS. 4A through 4E, in a method of manufacturing a solid surface counter top according to a first preferred embodiment of the present invention, first, an raw-material sheet 100 is prepared for manufacturing a solid surface counter top. A protection film 100a for preventing a glossy surface from scratches is attached to the raw-material sheet 100, as shown in FIG. 4A. In the present invention, the raw-material sheet 100 is processed without detaching the protection film 100a.

[0021] The processing is performed at a surface opposite to the glossy surface where the protection film 100a is attached. As shown in FIG. 4B, a groove 130a having a “T” shape is formed between the flat panel portion 110 and the backsplash 130 while a groove 120a having an angled “T” shape is formed between the flat panel portion 110 and the edge 120. Connection portions 120b and 130b having a fine thickness are left on the grooves 120a and 130a, respectively, so that the respective portio...

Abstract

A solid surface counter top is manufactured by preparing a solid surface raw-material sheet having a glossy surface to which a protection film is attached, processing a groove on an opposite surface of the glossy surface, leaving a connection portion having a fine thickness, to fold the raw-material sheet to fit to a shape of the top plate having at least one bent portion, heating the connection portion, and folding the row-material sheet to fit to the shape of the top plate by bending the heated connection portion.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing solid surface counter top, and more particularly, to a method of manufacturing solid surface counter top making the manufacturing process remarkably fast, and reducing labor dramatically. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] In general, solid surfacing is manufactured for interior applications where a decorative, durable, wear and stain resistant surface is required. Horizontal applications include vanity tops, countertops, residential and commercial furniture, window sills and thresholds. Vertical applications include wall panels, wainscoting, backsplashes, baseboards, and bath and shower enclosures. [0005] For example, as shown in FIG. 1, a sink consists of a cabinet 15 for storing items, a solid surface counter top 10 installed on the top of the cabinet 15 to carry out cooking thereon, and a basin 30 inserted in an opening formed in part of the...
