Patent number: 10926569Abstract: A system in which flat sheet stock can be digitally printed then formed and folded through a pattern process to rapidly create digitally decorated simulated tubing, and/or other unique three-dimensional shapes includes a foldable blank of a flat sheet of material with a plurality of fold lines formed into the flat sheet of material to allow the foldable blank, when folded, to configure at least one post which replicates extruded plastic or metal tubing. The post may define an elongated interior configured to receive an elongated support, after the folding along the fold lines. In a plurality of foldable blanks, each foldable blank including a flat sheet of material, and a plurality of fold lines formed into the flat sheet of material, the flat sheets of material are each foldable along their respective fold lines to configure a plurality of elements fittable together to form a standing display.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2020Date of Patent: February 23, 2021Assignee: LAMINATORS INCORPORATEDInventor: Scott Thompson

Patent number: 9464441Abstract: A mounting apparatus for mounting a panel to a structure. The mounting apparatus includes a panel extrusion that attaches to a back side of the panel such that the panel extrusion is obscured behind the panel in order to show a clean surface look. A connector extrusion secures the panel extrusion to the structure for simple construction.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2015Date of Patent: October 11, 2016Assignee: LAMINATORS INCORPORATEDInventor: John T. Wright

Patent number: RE38508Abstract: A structural panel has one or more face sheets bonded by adhesive layers to a core body having two outer plastic liner sheets fusion-bonded to linear ends of inner plastic truss elements spaced apart with open spaces therebetween extending in a plane direction of the plastic liner sheets. The sheet-to-sheet adhesive bonding provides a high-strength laminate bonding that is very resistant to delamination, simple and inexpensive, and can be carried out by a preferred continuous sheet bonding technique. The all-plastic core body is highly resistant to moisture attack, and the open spaces between truss elements provide flexibility to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction. The truss construction of the core body provides high compressive and shear strength, while minimizing the amount of material required to be used. In one preferred embodiment, two metal face sheets are used, and the core body has plastic liner sheets fusion-bonded to a corrugated plastic core sheet.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2001Date of Patent: April 27, 2004Assignee: Laminators IncorporatedInventor: John T.
