  • Patent number: 9475268
    Abstract: A process for producing a laminated glass pane made up of a base pane, a first laminating film, a coated polymer film with a coating, a second laminating film, and a top pane having at least one sensor window is described. The process has steps a) to d), wherein a) the coated polymer film with the coating is tensioned pointing upward by way of a vacuum table, b) at least one region from which the coating is removed is produced on the coated polymer film by means of laser treatment, c) the first laminating film is arranged on the base pane, the coated polymer film is arranged on the first laminating film, the second laminating film is arranged on the coated polymer film and the top pane is arranged on the second laminating film, and d) the arrangement is autoclaved. The region from which the coating is removed is produced by way of glass plates with which the vacuum table is equipped.

  • Patent number: 9061656
    Abstract: A panel heating element is described. The panel heating element has at least one substrate with a substrate surface, and an electrical heating layer for heating the substrate, which heating layer extends at least over a part of the substrate surface and is connected to at least two electrodes provided for connection to a voltage source such that a current path for a heating current is formed between the electrodes. The heating layer is electrically divided by separating zones each having at least one free zone end. The current path changes its direction of flow at the free zone ends. A transition zone adjoins the zone end of each separating zone.

  • Patent number: 8947757
    Abstract: An electrochromic glazing containing: a substrate including a layer structure thereon, which contains a first and second electrode layer, between which a first and second electrochemically active layer are situated, which each reversibly incorporate ions, wherein the first active layer contains an electrochromic material and the two active layers are separated from each other by an electrolyte layer, the layer structure being subdivided into series-connected electrochromic cells by a transition zone comprising: a first trench; a second trench; and a third trench between the first and second trenches, wherein the first and second trenches subdivide the first and second electrode layers into first electrode sections electrically insulated from each other and second electrode sections electrically insulated from each other, respectively, and the third trench is filled with an electrically conductive material, by which the first and second electrode sections of the cells adjacent the transition zone are electrica

  • Patent number: 8102587
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrochromic device having controlled infrared reflection, in particular of the electrically controllable type, comprising, between a carrier substrate (1a) transparent in the infrared range and a counter-substrate (1b), a multilayer stack. The device is characterized in that this multilayer stack comprises, in succession: a) a metal grid (3) transparent in the infrared range, forming a first electrode; b) an electrochromic functional system (5) comprising a layer (EC1) of an ion-storage first electrochromic material, at least one layer (EL1, EL2) having an electrolytic function, and a layer (EC2) of a second electrochromic material; c) a metal layer (7) capable of reflecting the infrared radiation, forming a second electrode; and d) a lamination interlayer (9) made of a thermoplastic polymer.
