Decoration panel and method for manufacturing decoration panel
A decoration panel of the present invention includes an outer layer having a through hole formed thereon which is opened to a front surface to be decorated and a back surface on a side opposite to the front surface, and a decoration layer including an inlay pattern portion which is part of the decoration layer entering the inside of the through hole from the back surface side being curved and deformed, the decoration layer being arranged on the entire back surface of the outer layer and having an approximately uniform layer thickness.
1. A decoration panel, comprising:

a decoration layer arranged on the back side of the outer layer with an approximately uniform layer thickness, wherein the decoration layer includes an inlay pattern portion which is part of the decoration layer, and which has a second curvature to enter the through hole from the back side of the outer layer; and
a non-planar inner layer arranged on a surface of the decoration layer on a side opposite to a surface which is in contact with the outer layer and having an approximately uniform layer thickness, and a third curvature,
wherein the third curvature of the inner layer matches the first curvature of the outer layer, the inner layer has a surface convexly curved in a direction towards the front side of the outer layer from the back side of the outer layer along a layer thickness direction of the outer layer in a region within the through hole as seen from the layer thickness direction of the outer layer, and the convex curvature of the surface of the inner layer corresponds to the second curvature of the inlay pattern portion,
wherein the inner layer is formed of a material different from that of the decoration layer,
wherein the outer layer includes natural wood, the inner layer includes natural wood, and the decoration layer is formed of a material which is different from that of the outer layer,
wherein the decoration panel further comprises a molded resin layer arranged on a surface of the inner layer on a side opposite to a surface which is in contact with the decoration layer, and
wherein the molded resin layer is formed by injection pressure, and wherein the injection pressure which forms the molded resin layer also produces the third curvature of the inner layer and the second curvature of the inlay pattern portion of the decoration layer.
2. A decoration panel, comprising:
a non-planar outer layer having a through hole formed thereon and a first curvature, and wherein the through hole is opened to a front side and a back side of the outer layer;
a decoration layer arranged on the back side of the outer layer with an approximately uniform layer thickness, wherein the decoration layer includes an inlay pattern portion which is part of the decoration layer, and which has a second curvature to enter the through hole from the back side of the outer layer; and
a non-planar inner layer arranged on a surface of the decoration layer on a side opposite to a surface which is in contact with the outer layer and having an approximately uniform layer thickness, and a third curvature,
wherein the third curvature of the inner layer matches the first curvature of the outer layer, the inner layer has a surface convexly curved in a direction towards the front side of the outer layer from the back side of the outer layer along a layer thickness direction of the outer layer in a region within the through hole as seen from the layer thickness direction of the outer layer, and the convex curvature of the surface of the inner layer corresponds to the second curvature of the inlay pattern portion,
wherein the inner layer has about the same expansion coefficient as that of the outer layer,
wherein the outer layer includes natural wood, the inner layer includes natural wood, and the decoration layer is formed of a material which is different from that of the outer layer,
wherein the decoration panel further comprises a molded resin layer arranged on a surface of the inner layer on a side opposite to a surface which is in contact with the decoration layer, and
wherein the molded resin layer is formed by injection pressure, and wherein the injection pressure which forms the molded resin layer also produces the third curvature of the inner layer and the second curvature of the inlay pattern portion of the decoration layer.
3. The decoration panel according to claim 2 , wherein the decoration layer is coherent to at least an opening end of the through hole on the back surface side with the inlay pattern portion, and the second curvature of the inlay pattern portion is curved towards an inside of the through hole.
4. The decoration panel according to claim 2 , wherein the decoration layer is formed of a metal material.
5. A decoration panel, comprising:
a non-planar outer layer having a through hole formed thereon and an outward first curvature, and wherein the through hole is opened to a front side and a back side of the outer layer;
a decoration layer arranged on the back side of the outer layer with an approximately uniform layer thickness, wherein the decoration layer includes an inlay pattern portion which is part of the decoration layer, and which has a second curvature to enter the through hole from the back side of the outer layer; and
a non-planar inner layer arranged on a surface of the decoration layer on a side opposite to a surface which is in contact with the outer layer and having an approximately uniform layer thickness, and a third curvature,
wherein the third curvature of the inner layer matches the first curvature of the outer layer, the inner layer has a surface convexly curved in a direction towards the front side of the outer layer from the back side of the outer layer along a layer thickness direction of the outer layer in a region within the through hole as seen from the layer thickness direction of the outer layer, and the convex curvature of the surface of the inner layer corresponds to the second curvature of the inlay pattern portion,
wherein the inner layer includes natural wood, the outer layer includes natural wood, and the outer layer is formed of the same material as that of the outer layer,
wherein the decoration layer is coherent to at least an opening end of the through hole on the back surface side with the inlay pattern portion, and is curved towards an inside of the through hole, wherein the inlay pattern portion has a peripheral surface, the through hole has an outer end at the front side of the outer layer, and a peripheral surface facing the inside of the through hole between the opening end and the outer end, the peripheral surface of the inlay pattern portion is opposed to the peripheral surface of the through hole, the inner layer contacts the opening end of the through hole, and the inlay pattern portion does not contact the outer end of the through hole, such that the opposed peripheral surfaces of the inlay pattern portion and the through hole form an outwardly opening gap,
wherein the decoration panel further comprises a molded resin layer arranged on a surface of the inner layer on a side opposite to a surface which is in contact with the decoration layer, and
wherein the molded resin layer is formed by injection pressure, and wherein the injection pressure which forms the molded resin layer also produces the third curvature of the inner layer and the second curvature of the inlay pattern portion of the decoration layer.
