Abstract
Certain configurations of a multi-layer assembly including two or more porous cores and a continuous skin are described. The multi-layer assemblies can be used in roofs and roof assemblies in vehicles or building applications. The multi-layer assemblies can also be used with a radial end-cap to enhance bonding of the multi-layer assembly to underlying support structures.
Claims21
A roof assembly comprising:
- a multi-layer assembly comprising a plurality of individual porous cores coupled to a continuous multi-ply glass fiber skin at a first surface of the continuous multi-ply glass fiber skin,
- wherein each of the plurality of individual porous cores comprises a web comprising a random arrangement of reinforcing materials held in place by a thermoplastic material,
- wherein the continuous multi-ply glass fiber skin comprises at least two individual glass fiber layers each comprising a unidirectional orientation of glass fibers held in place by a binder material, and
- wherein the plurality of individual porous cores are coupled to the continuous multi-ply glass fiber skin to position the continuous multi-ply glass fiber skin on an exterior surface of the roof assembly.
