Abstract

A laminated panes suitable for installation in a building, façade or architectural barrier, includes an electrical carrier adhered directly or indirectly to the first major face of a sheet of glazing material and in electrical communication, with an electrical element between the first sheet of glazing material and a second sheet of glazing material. This provides the advantages that the electrical carrier is less likely to be snagged or lost while allowing connection of electrical elements within laminated panes using means suitable for connection to electrical elements within insulated glazing cavities, such as spacer frame sections with integrated connections.

Abstract

The present invention concerns a glazing (1) comprising: first and second glass sheets (2) bonded via a ply of interlayer material (3), first and second masking layers (4) arranged respectively on the first and second glass sheets (2) around a vision area (10), and an antenna wire (5) extended between first and second ends (6, 7) and embedded in the ply of interlayer material (3). The antenna wire (5) comprises at least three linear segments (8) between the first and second ends (6, 7), at least two bends (9) between the at least three linear segments (8). At least one linear segment (8) is arranged at least partly in the vision area (10), and the first and second masking layers (4) mask the first and second ends (6, 7). A method for manufacturing a glazing and use of said glazing are also disclosed. The invention solves the problem of visual distraction due to cut ends of an antenna wire by masking the cut ends based on antenna wire shape. An antenna wire according to the invention has good reception performance.

The invention provides a transparent substrate including a multiple layer coating stack and the use of same in the manufacture of a double glazing unit. The multiple layer coating stack comprises, n functional metal layer, m; and n plus 1 (n+1) dielectric layer, d, wherein the dielectric layers are positioned before and after each functional metal layer, and wherein n is the total number of functional metal layer in the stack counted from the substrate and is greater than or equal to 3. Each dielectric layer includes one or more layers, characterized in that the geometrical layer thickness of each functional metal layer in the coating stack Gm, is greater than the geometrical layer thickness of each functional metal layer appearing before it in the multiple layer coating stack, that is, Gmi+1>Gmi, wherein i is the position of the functional metal layer in the coating stack counted from the substrate. For each dielectric layer d located before and after each functional metal layer m, the optical layer thickness of each dielectric layer (opln) is greater than or equal to the optical layer thickness of the dielectric layer (opln−1) positioned before it in the coating stack with the proviso that twice the optical layer thickness of the first dielectric layer (opl1) in the coating stack, is less than the optical layer thickness of the second dielectric layer (opl2) in the coating stack, that is, (2×opl1)

The shaping of the glass sheet involves press bending a heat softened glass sheet between a lower shaping support and an upper shaping member, wherein during the shaping of the glass sheet on the shaping support only a portion of the major surface of the glass sheet facing the lower shaping support is cooled by directing one or more jets of air onto said portion.

Abstract

A method of shaping a glass sheet includes providing a glass sheet. The glass sheet is heated to a temperature suitable for shaping. The glass sheet is deposited on a first bending tool. The glass sheet is disposed over a first segment of the first bending tool. The first segment at least partially defines a shaping surface of the first bending tool. The first segment of the first bending tool is moved from a first position to a second position to cause contact with a first portion of the glass sheet. The contact with the first portion of the glass sheet adjusts a position of the glass sheet relative to the shaping surface of the first bending tool. The glass sheet is shaped on the first bending tool.

A laminated glazing includes first and second sheets of glazing material joined by an interlayer structure including a first sheet of adhesive interlayer material having a first (window) region for positioning a (LIDAR) sensor thereon and a second region that is a through-vision region. The first region comprises a first portion and the second region comprises a second portion of a major surface of the first sheet of glazing material. The laminated glazing has a first transmittance of electromagnetic radiation transmitted by the sensor at the first portion that is higher than a second transmittance at the second portion. It also has a visible light transmission greater than 70% at the second portion. The separation of the first and second glazing material sheets varies in at least one direction and/or the first sheet of adhesive comprises heat absorbing particles such as lanthanum hexaboride particles or certain metal-doped metal oxide particles.

The present invention concerns a glazing (10) for electric heating, comprising a first glass sheet (1), a first masking layer (2) around the periphery of the first glass sheet (1), an aperture (3) in the first masking layer (2) for a sensor, a second glass sheet (4) bonded to the first glass sheet (1) by a ply of interlayer material (5), a carrier film (6) positioned between the ply of interlayer material (5) and the first glass sheet (1), an electric heating element (7) on the carrier film (6), and a second masking layer (8) on the carrier film (6). The second masking layer positioned on a carrier film causes less stress in the glass sheets during moulding and thus less optical distortion. The invention also concerns a method of manufacturing the glazing and use of the glazing for example as a window for a vehicle.

Abstract

There is provided a method of manufacturing a powder comprising borosilicate particles, the method comprising the steps of: mixing a solution comprising a trialkoxyboroxine and an orthosilicate and/or silicon alkoxide to form a sol; aging the sol to form a gel; and drying the gel to form particles directly, and/or drying the gel to form an aggregate of particles and grinding the aggregate of particles, and also, a method of manufacturing functionalised borosilicate particles, comprising the steps of: providing a powder comprising borosilicate particles formed from a dried gel; and reacting the borosilicate particles with a functional molecule and/or nanoparticle, and also a powder comprising borosilicate particles, wherein the particles comprise a functional molecule and/or nanoparticle.

Abstract

A laminated glazing for a vehicle windscreen comprising first and second sheets of glazing material joined by a sheet of adhesive interlayer material is described. The laminated glazing has an outer facing surface and an inner facing surface comprising a first treated region that has been subjected to a roughening process such that before the roughening process the first treated region has a first surface roughness and after the roughening process the first treated region has a second surface roughness. The first treated region having the second surface roughness helps the laminated glazing break when subject to an impact on the outer facing surface. Use of a roughened region to reduce the time taken for a laminated glazing to break upon being impacted by an impactor is also described.
