Structural laminate component

A structural laminate component comprising;

• a core having an upper surface, a lower surface and a core perimeter edge;
• a first panel formed of a sheet material, the first panel having a first panel perimeter edge, the first panel overlying the upper surface of the core;
• and
• a second panel formed of a sheet material, the second panel having a second panel perimeter edge, the second panel overlying the lower surface of the core opposite the first panel, the first panel perimeter edge and the second panel perimeter edge coupled together to form an integral frame extending about the first panel perimeter edge and the second panel perimeter edge in an area where the first and second panels are coupled together;
• wherein the core perimeter edge is spaced inwardly from the integral frame, the integral frame extending continuously around the entire core perimeter edge, the first and second panels each having an inner surface, wherein the inner surfaces of the first and second panels are bonded directly to one another within the area of the integral frame;
• wherein the structural laminate component defines an open cutout extending through the at least one of first panel and the second panel, the first and second panels not adhered or otherwise joined together within the cutout;
• wherein the cutout is a handle cutout positioned within the integral frame;
• wherein the core defines at least one insert void extending through the core and forming an opening in the core, and wherein a functional insert is disposed in the at least one insert void;
• and
• wherein the functional insert is at least one of a magnet and an attachment insert disposed within the insert void.

A structural laminate component comprising:

• first and second high pressure laminate panels, each of the first and second panels having an outer surface, an inner surface, a top edge, a bottom edge opposite the top edge, and first and second lateral sides, the top and bottom edges and the lateral sides of the inner surfaces of the first and second panels continuously abutting one another and coterminous about a panel outer perimeter edge;
• and
• a core sandwiched between the first and second panels with portions of the respective inner surfaces of the panels contacting the core, the core having an outer peripheral edge spaced inwardly from the outer perimeter edge of the first and second panels;
• and
• an adhesive between the first and second panels, the adhesive directly bonding the inner surface of the first high pressure laminate panel with the inner surface of the second high pressure laminate panel in an area outside the peripheral edge of the core and adjacent to the panel outer perimeter edge, and extending around at least a portion of the panel outer perimeter edge to form an integral frame;
• wherein the first and second panels are spaced apart from each other in the area of contact with the core, and wherein the first and second panels include a transition section between the core and the integral frame wherein the first and second panels converge toward each other.
