Description
REINFORCED LOUVER BLADE
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a louver blade used for shutters for windows, doors or similar architectural openings and in particular to a reinforced louver blade made from plastic materials.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Typical louver blades are used in making shutters, where the blades are either fixed or movable. In each case, the blades are supported only at either end. In a movable shutter, pins are provided at either end along the longitudinal axis to allow pivoting. Prior art louver blades made from plastic materials have limited span lengths. When used for wider openings, these louver blades tend to sag, making them less desirable. There is, therefore, a need for a plastic louver blade that is more rigid and thus able to span a wider distance without noticeable sagging.
OBJECTS AND SUMMARY OF TEE INVENTION
It is an object of the present invention to provide a reinforced plastic louver blade with greater rigidity than non-reinforced louver blades, thereby allowing for wider spans without noticeable sagging.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a reinforced plastic louver blade that can be extruded in a continuous process.
In summary, the present invention provides a louver blade, comprising an elongated body made of extruded plastic having first and second plastic strips disposed within and off-center from the longitudinal axis of the body.
The present invention also provides a method for making a louver blade, comprisilg: extruding plastic in a shape of a louver blade into a die; feeding first and second plastic strips through a cavity of the die; cooling the extruded louver blade;
and cutting the extruded louver blade into desired length.
These and other objects of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
A louver blade 2 made in accordance with the present invention is disclosed in Fig. 1. The louver blade 2 is an elongated body made of extruded plastic material, such as cellular PVC. A hard skin 4, shown in dashed lines, is preferably farmed around the body by rapid cooling of the profile during the extrusion process. Longitudinal reinforcement plastic strips 8 and 9 made of glass fibers in a PVC resin are fed into the extrusion die thereby to be embedded within the body of the blade 2 during the extrusion process.
The louver blade 2 is preferably oblong in cross-section, having a longitudinal axis 10. Other profile shapes may be used. The louver blade 2 may have a horizontal plane of symmetry containing the axis 10. The louver blade 2 in cross-section has thicker middle portion 12 and thinner end portions 14. The fiberglass-reinforced strips 8 and 9 are preferably disposed in the middle portion 12 offset from each other horizontally and vertically, such that both strips are vertically and horizontally apart from each other. The upper strip 8 is disposed closer to a top surface of the louver blade 2, while the lower strip 9 is disposed nearer to a bottom

The upper strip 8 is disposed closer to a top surface of the louver blade 2, while the lower strip 9 is disposed nearer to a bottom
-4-surface of the blade. The upper strip 8 is offset towards to the left, while the 1.wer strip 9 is offset towards the right.
The strips in cross-section said first and second strips in cross-section have wider than taller dimensions and the wider dimensions are disposed horizontally within the body of the louver blade.
The strips are advantageously packaged in a spool in lengths of 1,500 feet or more, thereby providing for continuous extrusion process without interruption, except for replacing a spent spool. The strips 8 and 9 advantageously provide reinforcement and rigidity to louver blade 2, which is typically =
supported at opposite ends with pins, as for example in a shutter application. With the inclusion of the fiberglass strips 8 and 9, the typical span is substantially increased from about 20-22 inches to about 28-30 inches without noticeable sagging. The strips 8 and 9 advantageously counteract each other to provide rigidity. When the louver blade 2 is hung, the top fiberglass strip 8 will be under compression while the bottom fiberglass strip 9 will be under tension. The compressive and tensile forces thus generated in the strips would tend to counterant each other, thereby providing a more rigid louver blade. The strips are available from Strongwell, Bristol, Virginia.

The strips are available from Strongwell, Bristol, Virginia.
Referring to Fig. 2, an extrusion system used in making the louver blade 2 is disclosed. The system includes an extruder 18
-5-extruding foam or cellular PVC plastic into a die 20. A spool 22 carries the glass fiber reinforcement strips, which are fed into an embosser 24 that roughens the top and bottom surfaces of the strips before they are fed into the die 20. The die 20 provides the desired shape to the louver blade 2.
A shaper 26 cools the hot, extruded plastic and provides a hard skin around the body of the blade. The shaper 26 includes a passageway made in the same cross-sectional shape as the die.
The shaper 26 is immediately next to the cavity of the die in which the hot extruded plastic takes its profile. The shaper 26 includes cooling passageways through which chilled water is circulated, thereby cooling the outer surface of the hot extruded plastic to form the hard skin 4 as it passes through the chilled shaper.
The extruded louver blade then passes to a sizer 28 where further cooling is accomplished. The sizer 28 has a passageway in the same shape and size as the cross-sectional shape of the blade 2. The sizer 28 is immersed in chilled water inside a cooling tank 30, which is kept at a vacuum to keep the shape of extruded plastic profile and keep it from collapsing onto itself as it cools down.
The extruded blade emerges from the cooling tank 30 into a puller 32, which pulls the extruded blade through the extrusion system. A saw 34 cuts the extruded blade into the desired length pieces, as generally shown at 36. With the use of longer

-6-length strips, there is assurance that the reinforcement strips will be continuous in each cut length.
Referring to Fig. 3, the strip embosser 24 includes upper and lower rolls 38 tt-lt provide an embossed pattern on the upper and lower surfaces of the strips 8 and 9. The pattern provides a rough texture, such as a cross-hatching pattern, on the surfaces of the strips onto which the extruded plastic can attach itself. The rolls 38 initially drive the strips 8 and 9 into the die 20. Once the hot plastic is pushed into the die 20 the forces of the moving molten plastic pulls the strips along.
The shaper 26 has an inlet 40 for chilled water to cool the outer surface of the extruded plastic to provide the hard skin 4 around the body of the louver blade. An outlet 42 draws the chilled water back to the chiller (not shown).
From the shaper 26, the extruded plastic passes through the sizer 28, which has the same cross-sectional cavity shape as the shaper 26 in the die 20. The sizer 28 is submerged in chilled water inside the cooling tank 30. The chilled water circulates through inlet 44 and outlet 46 through a chiller (not shown).
The chilled water temperature is approximately 55 - 60 F. The tank 30 is maintained in a vacuum, preferably ranging from 1-5 inches of mercury. An outlet 47 is connected to a vacuum pump (not shown). The vactium advantageously keeps the hot extruded plastic from collapsing at it cools. The sizer 28 thus keeps the shape of the extrusion at it continues to cool down.

The vactium advantageously keeps the hot extruded plastic from collapsing at it cools. The sizer 28 thus keeps the shape of the extrusion at it continues to cool down.
-7-The extruded plastic blade 2, after exiting the cooling tank 30, is gripped between upper and lower endless tracks 48 that pull the extruded plastic blade along the extrusion system.
The tracks are equipped with rubber treads adapted to grip the plastic blade. The cLtter 34 cuts the extruded blade into the desired lengths.
Referring to Fig. 4, the die 20 includes upper and lower slots 50 and 52 through which the strips 8 and 9 are inserted.
The slots 50 and 52 are entry ways into passageways 54 and 56 that guide the strips through the die 20. It will be seen that the passageways 54 and 56 maintain the placement of the strips in relation to the body of the louver blade. The passageways end at the entrance to a die cavity 58 which has the desired cross-sectional or profile shape for the louver blade 2 to be extruded. The hot molten plastic is fed from the extruder 18 through an oblong, doughnut shaped, tapering passageway 60 that extends through the die and ends at the entrance to the cavity 58. The direction of the plastic flow from the extruder 18 is transverse to the direction of flow of the plastic through the die 20 to advantageously clear the front area of the die where the strips are inserted. The passageway 60 narrows down as it approaches the entrance to the cavity 58, as shown in Fig. 8.
Figs. 7 and 9 show the passageway 60 filled with melted plastic as it flows through ti-e passageway and into the cavity 58.
