Abstract: A shelf for an item of furniture, especially for a refrigerator or the like, includes a panel for supporting articles and a frame capable of enclosing the panel by its actual surrounding part, the frame configured to allow the shelf to be fitted into the body of the furniture. The shelf further includes at least one retaining member for retaining the panel at its lower part, which retaining member can be inserted laterally into a hole made in a rib of the frame, which rib runs along the panel, being offset internally relative to the external peripheral edge of the frame, and extends beyond the panel, and then can be fastened onto or behind the border wall of the hole, the retaining member bearing, in the fastened position, against the panel.

Abstract: The invention relates to a substrate comprising at least one photocatalytic compound active under the conditions of illuminating an interior of a building or transport vehicle, intended to neutralize the microorganisms with which it comes into contact, and also to its preparation processes and its uses as glazing or another substrate for disinfection, filtration, ventilation, etc.

Abstract: A shelf, particularly for a refrigerator or the like, including at least one panel and at least one attached plastic structure. The shelf is preferably obtained by shrinking the structure after assembling the panel and the structure. The attached plastic structure can mate and/or exert lateral pressure on the edge of the panel.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for preparing glass from raw materials in powder form in a furnace comprising three side walls, a roof, an upstream pinion and at least one air injector associated with a gas or liquid fuel injector, at least one of said injectors being arranged in said side walls, in said roof or in said upstream pinion. Said method includes the following steps: injecting air and gas or liquid fuel through said injectors, at least one flame being generated immediately proximate the zone where said raw materials in powder form cover the glass solution.

Abstract: A window glass, particularly for installation by adhesive bonding in an opening of a vehicle bodywork, comprises a sheet of glass with a profiled bead that is fixed at least to the main surface of the sheet of glass facing toward the interior in the installed state and that rests against at least part of the opening. The use of such a window glass makes it possible, once the window glass has been installed in the bodywork opening, to obtain a visible space less than 5 mm between the opening and the edge face of the window glass.

Abstract: A shelving unit for a cabinet, for example a refrigerator or similar cabinet, including a panel supporting articles and a frame or part of a frame gripping the panel by its actual surrounding part, the frame arranged to allow the shelving unit to be mounted in a chassis of the cabinet. At least one securing member for the panel is provided in its bottom part, the securing member includes a rider configured to overlap a protuberance or rib of the frame, extending along and beyond the panel and, in a pressed-in position, bearing by its internal end against the panel.

Abstract: The invention relates to a complex partition glass (1) consisting of at least two glass elements (10; 20) which are adjacent according to at least one edge section (11; 21) and separated from each other by a gap (2). Said partition glass is characterised in that a first glass element (10) is provided beneath an edge (12) of at least one section of a rigid profiled element (13) which projects past said edge and provides a support for a second glass element (20).

Abstract: The invention therefore provides glazing which, to ensure improved acoustic insulation properties, requires not only an acoustic polymeric interlayer but also a suitable distribution of the masses of the elements on either side of the interlayer.

Abstract: A shelf for a cabinet, for a refrigerator or the like, includes a glass plate for holding items which is supported along its side edges by track or rail type brackets suitable for fastening or mounting in said cabinet and aligned with a support structure formed or held by said cabinet. The brackets are joined by at least one crosspiece and with said crosspiece(s) form a cradle to hold said plate that is suitable for supporting the mechanical strength of the shelf.

Abstract: The invention relates to a laminated glazing (10, 10?) for vehicles, comprising at least one interlayer sheet (13, 16) of thermoplastic polymer positioned between two substrates (11, 17), each substrate thus having a respective face (2, 3) turned toward said interlayer sheet (13, 16), said glazing having reflection properties in the infrared and/or in solar radiation, characterized in that a heating means (12) having a power density of at least 400 W/m2, or even at least 500 W/m2, is associated with the face (2), in that a means (15) having reflection properties in the infrared and/or in solar radiation is associated with the face (3) and in that said glazing has a light transmission of at least 70%, or even at least 75%.
