PROCESS FOR SLAT SHAPING AND SHAPED SLATS

摘要

A structure and process for making a window covering slat may include a first step in which a matrixed material, preferably a non-woven material, is bonded to a very thin layer of material to form a first bonded member, and forming a second bonded member in a similar way, and joining the first bonded member to a second bonded member using a matrix bonding material, especially under heat and pressure. The ability to produce thin, high-strength window slats having a variety of shapes is realized.

主权项

1. A slat for a window covering comprising:
a first very thin layer of material having a first, decorative side and a second side having a bonding surface; a first layer of bonding material bonded to the second bonding side of the first very thin layer of material; a first matrixed material partially infused with the first layer of bonding material and affixed to the first very thin layer of material; the first very thin layer of material, first layer of bonding material and first matrixed material forming a first bonded member; a second very thin layer of material having a first, decorative side and a second side having a bonding surface; a second layer of bonding material bonded to the second bonding side of the second very thin layer of material; a second matrixed material partially infused with the second layer of bonding material and affixed to the second very thin layer of material; the second very thin layer of material, second layer of bonding material and second matrixed material forming a second bonded member; a matrix bonding material at least partially infused into both the first and the second matrixed materials joining and giving strength to a window covering slat formed from attachment of the first bonded member and the second bonded member.
