Abstract
Abstract A plate like insulation unit which includes an evacuated bag having two gas impermeable films sealed at peripheries thereof to form the bag and a heat insulating core material charged into the bag. The one gas impermeable film of the bag is a first film having a first metallic foil laminated to extend to the peripheries thereof, and the other gas permeable film is a second film having a metallic layer vapor deposited.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
103 words
A plate like insulation unit which includes an evacuated bag having two gas impermeable films sealed at peripheries thereof to form the bag and a heat insulating core material charged into the bag, the improvement wherein one said gas impermeable film is a first film comprising a metallic foil laminated to a plastic layer to extend to the peripheries of the plastic layer, and wherein the other gas impermeable film is a second film comprising a metallic layer vapor deposited on a plastic layer, said vapor deposited metallic layer in the second film being thinner than the metallic foil in the first film.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
103 words
A plate like insulation unit which includes an evacuated bag having two gas impermeable films sealed at peripheries thereof to form the bag and a heat insulating core material charged into the bag, the improvement wherein one said gas impermeable film is a first film comprising a metallic foil laminated to a plastic layer to extend to the peripheries of the plastic layer, and wherein the other gas impermeable film is a second film comprising a metallic layer vapor deposited on a plastic layer, said vapor deposited metallic layer in the second film being thinner than the metallic foil in the first film.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
43 words
An insulation unit as recited in claim 1 wherein said first film comprises: an inner plastic layer, said metallic foil being laminated at one face thereof to the inner layer; and an outer layer laminated to the other face of the metallic foil.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
34 words
An insulation unit as recited in claim 1 wherein said other face of said metallic foil in the second film is laminated to an outer face of said planar portion of the second film.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
38 words
An insulation unit as recited in claim 1, wherein the metallic foil in the first film has a thickness of 9-30 microns, and the vapor deposited metallic layer in the second film has a thickness of 0.05-0.07 microns.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
164 words
In a plate like insulation unit which includes an evacuated bag having two gas impermeable films sealed at peripheries thereof to form the bag and a heat insulating core material charged into the bag, the improvement wherein one said gas impermeable film is a first film comprising an inner plastic layer, a metallic foil laminated on one face thereof to the inner plastic layer to extend to the peripheries of the inner plastic layer, and an outer layer laminated to the other face of the metallic foil, and wherein the other gas impermeable film is a second film comprising a metallic layer vapor deposited on a plastic layer, a metallic foil, and a protection layer laminated to one face of the metallic foil in the second film, the metallic foil in the second film being laminated on the other face thereof to one face of said planar portion of the second film, the first and second films being sealed together at said peripheral portions.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
164 words
In a plate like insulation unit which includes an evacuated bag having two gas impermeable films sealed at peripheries thereof to form the bag and a heat insulating core material charged into the bag, the improvement wherein one said gas impermeable film is a first film comprising an inner plastic layer, a metallic foil laminated on one face thereof to the inner plastic layer to extend to the peripheries of the inner plastic layer, and an outer layer laminated to the other face of the metallic foil, and wherein the other gas impermeable film is a second film comprising a metallic layer vapor deposited on a plastic layer, a metallic foil, and a protection layer laminated to one face of the metallic foil in the second film, the metallic foil in the second film being laminated on the other face thereof to one face of said planar portion of the second film, the first and second films being sealed together at said peripheral portions.
