  • Patent number: 10638549
    Abstract: An electrically heatable pane with a switch region is presented. The pane has a transparent substrate, with at least one transparent electrically conductive layer that is, at least partially, arranged on a surface of the pane. At least one separating line electrically divides the layer into a heating region and a switch region. At least two busbars are provided for connection to a voltage source. The busbars being connected to the heating region, form a current path between the busbars. A heating current can therefore flow through the current path. Furthermore, the switch region has at least one contact region, a feed line region, and a connection region, where the connection region can be connected to sensor electronics.

  • Publication number: 20170041987
    Abstract: A pane with an illuminated switch surface and a heating function is described. The pane includes a transparent substrate and a heating zone that is connected to at least two busbars intended for connecting to a voltage source, such that a current path for a heating current is formed between the busbars. The pane also includes an electrically conductive structure that forms a switch surface, and that can be connected to a sensor electronics assembly. Marking of the switch surface is provided by illumination means.
