Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 132 words
A molded panel consisting essentially of a core and a substantially seamless covering of flowable and hardenable urethane based plastic foam material which is substantially rigid when hardened over said core; where said core has spaced apart first and second major faces with a sheet-like covering over said core defining said faces and a plurality of walls extending between said sheet-like coverings, said plurality of walls and said sheet-like coverings at said first and second major faces forming a plurality of cells extending between said major faces and bounded by said walls; the flowable and hardenable urethane based plastic foam material covering over said core being substantially seamless over said first and second major faces and over at least a portion of the outer periphery of said core between said major faces.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 132 words
A molded panel consisting essentially of a core and a substantially seamless covering of flowable and hardenable urethane based plastic foam material which is substantially rigid when hardened over said core; where said core has spaced apart first and second major faces with a sheet-like covering over said core defining said faces and a plurality of walls extending between said sheet-like coverings, said plurality of walls and said sheet-like coverings at said first and second major faces forming a plurality of cells extending between said major faces and bounded by said walls; the flowable and hardenable urethane based plastic foam material covering over said core being substantially seamless over said first and second major faces and over at least a portion of the outer periphery of said core between said major faces.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 30 words
The panel of claim 1 where said covering extends substantially seamlessly over said first and second major faces and over the entire periphery of said core between said major faces.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 26 words
The panel of claim 1 where the material of said covering extends into at least one of said plurality of cells formed between said major faces.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
A panel according to claim 2 where said core is of honeycomb structure and said first and second major faces are substantially parallel.
