Claims
- 1. A process for manufacturing a laminated cardboard web comprising the steps of:
- (a) laying a first series of cardboard panels edge to edge, said first series of panels extending in a first direction;
- (b) laying a second series of cardboard panels edge to edge on top of said first series, said second series of panels extending in said first direction, said panels of said second series being laid so that the edge to edge joints between said panels of said second series are angled with respect to the edge to edge joints between said panels of said first series; and
- (c) bonding said first series of panels to said second series of panels.
- 2. The process of claim 1 wherein one of said series of panels forms a herringbone pattern.
- 3. The process of claim 1 wherein said second series of panels is formed by cutting from a continuous strip of cardboard a section sufficiently long to span the width of said first series of panels, the next panel in said second series being formed by cutting another section from said continuous strip of cardboard, said continuous strip of cardboard being formed by joining a plurality of cardboard panels together by overlapping and bonding the ends of said panels and crushing said overlap joint to essentially the same thickness as said panels.
- 4. The process of claim 1 further comprising laying at least one additional series of panels edge to edge with said first series of panels, said additional series disposed perpendicular to said first direction from said first series of panels, said second series of panels overlapping said first series of panels and said additional series of panels.
- 5. The process of claim 4 wherein said second series of panels comprises more than one series of panels laid edge to edge in both said first direction and in said direction perpendicular to said first direction.
- 6. A process for manufacturing a laminated cardboard web comprising the steps of:
- (a) laying a first layer of cardboard panels, said first layer comprising at least one series of said panels, each series being laid edge to edge in a first direction, each series further being placed in edge to edge relation with any adjacent series;
- (b) laying a second layer of said panels on top of said first layer, said second layer comprising at least one series of said panels placed in edge to edge relation in said first direction and in the direction perpendicular to said first direction;
- (c) bonding said first layer of panels to said second layer of panels.
- 7. The process of claim 6 wherein the edge to edge joints of said panels are orthogonal to the edge to edge joints of adjacent layers and wherein those of said edge to edge joints in adjacent layers which are parallel are arranged in non-overlapping fashion.
- 8. The process of claim 7 wherein each of said series of panels in said second layer is laid in a direction parallel to said first direction.
- 9. The process of claim 7 wherein each of said series of panels in said second layer is laid in a direction perpendicular to said first direction.
- 10. The process of claim 6 wherein said series of panels in said second layer are laid with edge to edge joints being angled with respect to the edge to edge joints of said panels of said first layer.
- 11. A process for manufacturing a laminated cardboard web comprising the steps of:
- (a) laying a first series of cardboard panels in an unbridged configuration;
- (b) laying at least one additional series of cardboard panels in an unbridged configuration, said additional series of panels being disposed in face-to-face relation with said first series of panels, said panels of at least one of said first and additional series having one or more edge portions which are overlapped with said edge portions of adjacent panels in said series and which are crushed so that the thickness of said series at said edge portions is equal to the thickness of the remainder of said series; and
- (c) bonding said first series of panels to said additional series of panels.
- 12. The process of claim 11 wherein said panels of said additional series are bonded together at their overlapped edge portions.
- 13. A process for manufacturing a laminated cardboard web comprising the steps of:
- (a) laying a first layer of cardboard panels edge to edge;
- (b) laying a second layer of cardboard panels edge to edge in contact with said first layer;
- (c) placing a layer of a material in contact with at least one of said layers of cardboard panels, the step of placing a layer of material in contact with at least one of said layers of cardboard panels being achieved by using a roll of paper as a conveyer upon which said layer of cardboard is transported;
- (d) bonding said layers of cardboard and material together.
- 14. The process of claim 13 wherein said layers of cardboard are laid on a plurality of roll paper--conveyors, and wherein said layers of cardboard laid on said roll paper conveyors are adhered together in face to face relation to form a single laminated web.
- 15. The process of claim 14 wherein at least one of said layers of cardboard laid on one of said roll paper conveyors is perforated prior to being bonded with another of said cardboard layers laid on another of said roll paper conveyors.
- 16. The process of claim 13 wherein said layer of cardboard laid on said roll paper conveyor is wrapped around a mandrel to form a laminated cardboard structure.
