Abstract: A light-emitting glazed door for a piece of refrigerating equipment, includes first and second glazing units forming an insulating glazing unit, the glazing units being spaced apart by a mastic seal; a peripheral light source with a source carrier; a system for extracting guided light in order to form at least one luminous zone; and a fastening part, namely a profile, making direct adhesive contact with the mastic seal.

Abstract: An illuminated light guide assembly includes a first light guide panel coupled to a first light source; a first light-extracting system on the first light guide panel; a second light guide panel coupled to a second light source different from the first light source; a second light-extracting system offset from the first extracting system; and a first optical isolator coupled to the first light guide panel with a first lamination interlayer and coupled to the second light guide panel with a second lamination interlayer.

Abstract: A luminous glazing assembly includes a first glazing pane with a first light source coupled to the first pane to emit at instant t0 at ?1 and to emit at t??t0 at ?2, ?2 distinct from ?1; a first light-extracting system and first masking arrangement to mask the extracted light from the internal-face side; making optical contact with the first glazing pane, a second glazing pane with a second light source that is optically coupled to the second pane, to emit at t0 at a ?3 distinct from ?1; a second light-extracting system and second masking arrangement to mask the light from the bonding-face side; between the first masking arrangement and the second extracting system, a first optical isolator; and between the first masking arrangement and the second extracting system, a second optical isolator, merged with the first optical isolator or separate and closer to the second extracting system.

Abstract: A lighting unit includes a glass panel including at least two spaced sheets of glass, and a lighting system based on light-emitting diodes the light-emitting portion of which is disposed facing each of the edge surfaces of the sheets of glass and carried by at least one section associated at least with the edge surface of the glass panel. The section is associated with the edge surface of the glass panel without creating thermal bridges. It is attached against the edge surface of the glass panel or demountably fixed to it.

Abstract: An illuminating partition includes lower and upper mounting profiled members, at least the lower profiled member including a carrier element arranged in the internal volume of the profiled member and including a platen, parallel to and at a distance from the central section of the profiled member and disposed between the diodes and the glazing unit, and serving as a support for the edge of the glazing unit, one of the lateral sections of the profiled member being mobile or removable so as to have access to the diodes which are associated with the profiled member in a removable manner.

Abstract: A method for producing a coated glass substrate is described. The method includes depositing a TCO (thin conductive oxide) layer with a layer thickness of 100 nm to 1000 nm on a glass substrate, depositing an inert top coating, comprising Al2O3, SiO2, Si3N4, and/or mixtures thereof, with an average layer thickness of 0.5 nm to 5 nm on the TCO layer, and heating the glass substrate at 550° C. to 800° C. and then etching in an acid, with the inert top coating not removed before the etching.
