  • Patent number: 7332202
    Abstract: An insulating glazing unit including at least two glass sheets spaced apart by a gas-filled cavity, an insert that serves to keep the two glass sheets apart and that has an internal face facing the gas-filled cavity and an opposed external face, and a sealing with respect to the inside of the glazing unit. The insert includes a substantially flat strip that surrounds a first part of the perimeter of the glazing unit, being pressed by its internal face against the edges of the glass sheets and kept fastened by a fastener, and another strip that surrounds a second part of the perimeter of the glazing unit.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20060048468
    Abstract: An insulating glazing panel including at least two glass panes separated by a gas space. A spacer serves to keep the two glass panes apart and having at least one approximately flat strip fitted at least partly around the perimeter of the glazing panel and fixed by adhesive bonding using a fastener. The strip is fitted substantially toward the interior of the panel set back with respect to at least one end face of a glass pane and is adhesively bonded against at least one internal face of a glass pane.

  • Publication number: 20040209019
    Abstract: An insulating glazing unit including at least two glass sheets separated by, e.g., a gas-filled cavity. An insert serves for spacing the at least two glass sheets apart and has an internal face facing the gas-filled cavity and an opposed external face, together with a mechanism for sealing the inside of the glazing unit. The insert is in the form of a substantially flat profiled strip that girds the perimeter of the glazing unit by its internal face being pressed against the edges of the at least two glass sheets and held fast by a fastening device.

  • Patent number: 6656665
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method for producing a pattern on a transparent substrate, particularly a glass or glass-ceramic substrate. According to the invention, there is deposited on at least one area of one face of the substrate, a first layer of a photosensitive resin comprising at least one sensitizing agent and at least one photosensitive compound essentially composed of a polymer with an average degree of cross-linking d° such that it is able to absorb solid particles. Certain areas of said first layer are exposed to light, particularly in order to increase, in a controlled manner, the average degree of cross-linking do of said polymer so as to modulate its absorption capacity. On the first layer is deposited at least one second layer of a mineral-particle-based composition. The substrate is subjected to at least one treatment cycle, particularly in order to fix said mineral particles. The invention also concerns the substrate produced by this method and its applications.
