  • Patent number: 9434323
    Abstract: A method of fitting an attachment, or a trim, onto a portion of a profiled strip, or onto a portion of a profiled strip fastened to a periphery of a glazing pane, a fitting operation being carried out by an intermediate fastening device. The intermediate fastening device includes at least one clip including having at least one upstream cooperating part configured to cooperate with the profiled strip and a downstream cooperating part configured to cooperate with the attachment. The method includes fastening the intermediate fastening device onto the profiled strip. The intermediate fastening device includes an upstream cooperating part having a plurality of deformable catching tabs, the tabs being deformed by applying a force to the ends of the tabs toward the material of the profiled strip in two opposed directions so as to penetrate the material of the profiled strip during the fastening.

  • Patent number: 8881459
    Abstract: A device for fixing a glazed element into an opening for the glazed element to be pivotable with respect to the opening. The device includes at least one projecting element including an axis for fixing the device to an upright of the opening, and at least one baseplate including interior and exterior faces facing a surface of the glazed element. The baseplate is at least partially integrated into a portion of elastic material adhering at least to the interior face. The projecting element rigidly fixes the projecting element to the upright of the opening so that the orientation of the axis with respect to the upright remains unchanged during opening or closing movement of the glazed element and so that during the opening movement, at least part of the portion of elastic material is squashed between the baseplate and the upright or between the baseplate and the glazed element.

  • Patent number: 7918058
    Abstract: A device for attaching a profiled trim to a portion of a shaped bead mounted on a glazing, for example mounted on at least part of the periphery of a glazing. The device includes at least one rigid clip including at least an upstream interacting part configured to allow interaction with the shaped bead and a downstream interacting part configured to allow interaction with the profiled trim. The upstream interacting part includes at least one protruding male element or a hollow female element, this element interacting respectively with a corresponding hollow female element or a protruding male element arranged in the shaped bead. The hollow female element has internal dimensions at least partially less than external dimensions of the protruding male element.

  • Patent number: 7892616
    Abstract: A glazing including a glazed element with at least one rigid element that may or may not be incorporated into an overmolded plastic part. The at least one rigid element has a linear thermal expansion coefficient of the same order of magnitude as that of the glazed element. Such a glazing may find, e.g., application to the addition of fixing supports or reinforcing elements to a glazing for buildings, self-propelled or towed terrestrial or marine vehicles.

  • Patent number: 6134851
    Abstract: The invention relates to an encapsulated window comprising a monolithic or laminated glass and/or plastic substrate (4; 14) provided with a frame (5; 16) made of a plastic material which is overmoulded around the periphery of the substrate. The frame includes, along at least part of its periphery, an essentially U-shaped groove which grips the border (6) of the substrate. The plastic material consists of a thermoplastic polymer or a blend of thermoplastic polymers having a flexural modulus of at least 1200 MPa. The frame grips the edge of the substrate with sufficient rigidity so that the edge of the substrate need not be coated with an adhesive primer.
