Samsung patents vacuum panel with layered core for better insulation
Samsung has filed a patent for a vacuum insulation panel that uses a two-part core inside a sealed shell. The core combines a porous support structure with a second layer made of stacked, parallel materials to improve heat retention.
In the filing’s own words
A vacuum insulation panel includes: an outer shell material defining a receiving space therein; and a core material in the receiving space; wherein the core material includes: a first core material layer comprising a support extending in a longitudinal direction of the outer shell material, the support comprising a porous material; and a second core material layer in contact with the first core material layer, extending in the longitudinal direction of the outer shell material, the second core material layer comprising a plurality of laminated materials arranged parallel to a direction in which the outer shell material extends.
What exactly they claim (claim 1)
1. A vacuum insulation panel comprising: an outer shell material defining a receiving space therein; and a core material in the receiving space; wherein the core material comprises: a first core material layer comprising a support extending in a longitudinal direction of the outer shell material, the support comprising a porous material; and a second core material layer in contact with the first core material layer, extending in the longitudinal direction of the outer shell material, the second core material layer comprising a plurality of laminated materials arranged parallel to a direction in which the outer shell material extends.
