Abstract: A luminous vehicle glazing containing: a first sheet having a first and a second main face; a peripheral light source, the emitting face facing an injection side, which is a side of the second face; a surface diffusion extractor, which extracts the guided light via the first and/or the second main face, or a volume diffusion extractor in the first sheet; a fluid-tight cap, which covers the peripheral light source and is impermeable to liquid water or water vapor, wherein the cap is a facial cap, faces the second face, joined by a fastening element, and associated with an interfacial sealing element.

Abstract: A module made of transparent polymer material in which rectangular photovoltaic cells are embedded. The sides of the photovoltaic cells are of length l1 and l2 of respective perpendicular directions d1 and d2, according to which the module has a curvature of radius R1, respectively R2, and et denotes the total thickness of polymer material and esup the minimum thickness of polymer material covering the photovoltaic cells of the side intended to be oriented toward the sun, and for i=1 and 2, li?2?{square root over ((et?esup)(et?esup+2Ri))}{square root over ((et?esup)(et?esup+2Ri))}. Such a module may find application for a transport vehicle, for a building trade, or street furniture. A roof or part of a roof of a motor vehicle can also include such a module.

Abstract: A luminous vehicle glazing, containing: a first sheet containing a mineral or an organic glass having a first main face, a second main face, and an injection edge; a peripheral light source with an emitting face, which faces the injection edge; a guided-light extracting element; a peripheral functional element, bonded to the first sheet, which is fluid-tight, including a cavity for placing the peripheral light source; a covering element, which covers the cavity and the peripheral light source, which is fluid-tight, and which is selected from i) a cap combined with an interfacial element, for interfacial fluid-tightness or ii) a fluid-tight sealing mastic covering the peripheral light source and sealing the peripheral functional element. In addition, a method of manufacturing the luminous vehicle glazing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composite structure comprising a photovoltaic cell adhering to an injected polymer (1), in which the photovoltaic cell exhibits an active face (2) adhering to a base (3), characterized in that the photovoltaic cell is continuous and its face directed away from the injected polymer (1) is caused to adhere to an encapsulating polymer (4) with a linear thermal expansion coefficient which does not differ by more than 65% from that of the injected polymer (1) and with a minimum melting point which allows it to withstand the injection of the latter and which promotes adhesion to the injected polymer (1), or in that the photovoltaic cell is openwork; a simple or multiple and monolithic or laminated window comprising such a structure.

Abstract: A diode module, for a vehicle, includes a first curved transparent sheet, diodes, each including an emitting chip able to emit at one or more wavelengths in the visible, and guided in the first sheet after injection via the edge face or via the sidewall of one or more holes housing the diodes in one of the main faces of the sheet, and including a bracket supporting the diodes, bordering the glazing, including a clip, for fastening to the glazing, having a middle part, a first discontinuous flange having a first set of tabs, for fastening and/or centering the clip, which are distanced from each other and a second discontinuous flange having a second set of tabs, for fastening the clip, which are distanced from each other, the first and/or second set(s) of tabs thus forming a retainer to retain the diodes in preset vertical positions relative to the first sheet.

Abstract: A light-emitting diode module, for a vehicle, includes a first transparent sheet having a first main face and a second main face and an edge face; the diodes each including an emitting chip able to emit one or more wavelengths in the visible, guided in the first sheet; a bracket supporting the diodes, extending as a border of the glazing and fastened to the glazing; and a seal against fluid(s), able to protect the chips and the light-emission volume of the chips before injection into the first sheet. An embodiment of the invention also relates to the manufacture of this module.
