VACUUM INSULATION PANEL MANUFACTURING METHOD, AND VACUUM INSULATION PANEL
First Claim
1. A vacuum insulation panel manufacturing method comprising:
- a stacking step in which a first metal plate is stacked on one side of an insulating core member, and in which a backing member having an opening and a second metal plate having an evacuation port are stacked, with the opening and the evacuation port stacking, on the other surface of the core member in the order of the backing member and the second metal plate from the core member side;
a first welding step for welding outwards of where the core member is arranged in the first metal plate and the second metal plate;
an evacuating step for applying a vacuum in an inner area which is held between the first metal plate and the second metal plate and in which the core member is arranged, from the evacuation port; and
a laser welding step in which, in a state in which the inner area is made into a vacuum by the evacuating step, the evacuation port is sealed by means of a sealing member and the sealing member, the second metal plate and the backing member are laser welded.

Abstract
A vacuum insulation panel manufacturing method that makes it possible to manufacture low-cost, high-performance vacuum insulation panels, and a vacuum insulation panel are provided. This method of manufacturing a vacuum insulation panel involves: a stacking step in which a first metal plate is stacked on one side of an insulating core material, and in which a backing member having an opening and a second metal plate having an evacuation port are stacked, with the opening and the evacuation port stacking, on the other surface of the core member in the order of backing member and second metal plate from the core member side; a first welding step for welding outwards of where the core member is arranged in the first metal plate and the second metal plate; an evacuating step from the evacuation port to create a vacuum in an inner area which is held between the first metal plate and the second metal plate and in which the core member is arranged; and a laser welding step in which, in a state in which the inner area is made into a vacuum by the evacuating step, the evacuation port is sealed by means of a sealing material and the sealing material, the second metal plate and the backing member are laser welded.

18. A vacuum insulation panel comprising:
-
an insulating core member; a first metal plate arranged on one side of the core member; a backing member having an opening and arranged on the other surface of the core member; a second metal plate arranged across the backing member on the other surface of the core member and having an evacuation port at a position stacking with the opening; and a sealing member sealing the opening, wherein outer sides of regions of the first metal plate and the second metal plate between which the core member is sandwiched are welded, wherein the sealing member, the second metal plate, and the backing member are welded, and wherein a vacuum state is created between the first metal plate and the second metal plate. - View Dependent Claims (19)

20. A vacuum insulation panel manufacturing method comprising:
-
a stacking step in which a first metal plate is stacked on one side of an insulating core member, and a second metal plate having an evacuation port, and a reinforcing material having an opening are stacked on the other side of the core member sequentially from the core member, such that the evacuation port and the opening are stacked, a first welding step for welding outwards of where the core member is arranged in the first metal plate and the second metal plate; an evacuating step for applying a vacuum in an inner area which is held between the first metal plate and the second metal plate and in which the core member is arranged, from the evacuation port and the opening; and a laser welding step in which, in a state in which the inner area is made into a vacuum by the evacuating step, the evacuation port and the opening are sealed by means of a sealing member, and the sealing member and the reinforcing material are laser welded, or the sealing member, the reinforcing material and the second metal plate are laser welded. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
