Abstract: A method for manufacturing a printed laminated glazing including at least one transparent sheet bonded to an adhesive interlayer, wherein the adhesive interlayer is obtained from at least a first and a second partial adhesive interlayers, wherein one of the two main faces of the first or the second partial adhesive interlayer is printed with an ink, wherein the transparent sheet, the first and the second partial adhesive interlayers are joined so that the printed main face of the first or the second partial adhesive interlayer is in direct contact with the second or the first partial adhesive interlayer, then the lamination is carried out.

Abstract: The method includes tracing a score line on the surface of the glass, using a scoring tool, and breaking out using a local pressure system applied on the opposite face and opposite the score line, the local pressure system being moved and pressed along the score line on the opposite face.

Abstract: A method for breaking out a sheet of glass includes tracing a score line on a first face of the sheet of glass, the score line delimiting an exterior part and an interior part of the sheet of glass, positioning a support facing the score line on the side of the sheet of glass opposite to the first face, and breaking out by simultaneous application of at least a first force on the exterior part of the sheet of glass and of at least a second force on the interior part of the sheet of glass.

Abstract: A machine for breaking out an inner shape in a glass sheet, includes a cutting tool and a displacement system to produce a cutting line on a first side of the glass sheet that delimits an outer contour of the inner shape and an inner contour of a peripheral shape; a bearing system to bear against a second side of the sheet along the outer contour of the inner shape; a deformation system to deform one of the inner and peripheral shapes by convex bending toward the second side, the convex bending creating a differential deformation between the inner and peripheral shapes to break out the inner shape along the cutting line and separate the inner shape from the peripheral shape so that a distance needed for a contactless extraction is created, and an extraction system to extract the inner or peripheral shape while the convex bending is maintained.

Abstract: A method includes tracing a cutting line on the surface of the glass, using a cutting tool; positioning flat supporting bearing elements arranged to generate a pressing force on the cutting line; and breaking, using a local bearing system applied to the face opposite to, and facing, the cutting line, the local bearing elements being moved and applied along the cutting line, on the opposite face.

Abstract: The break-out process comprises: a step of scoring a cutting line in the surface of the glass using a cutting tool, which cutting line delimits the outer contour of said inner shape and the inner contour of a peripheral shape; bringing the peripheral shape of the glass sheet into contact with a bearing means along the outer contour of the inner shape; the use of a deformation means for deforming one of the inner shape and of the peripheral shape by convex bending toward the side opposite the cutting line. The differential deformation between the inner shape and the peripheral shape is sufficient to break out the inner shape along the cutting line and create the distance needed for the contactless extraction of the inner shape relative to the peripheral shape. The extraction is carried out while maintaining the convex bending.

Abstract: The process relates to the manufacture of a plurality of glazings of complex shape from a rectangular sheet of float glass of large dimensions.

Abstract: A grinding wheel is suited for shaping glass, notably glass that is less than or equal to 4 mm thick. This grinding wheel has at least one abrasive portion formed of at least one metal binder and of diamonds distributed in the binder. The binder has a Rockwell B hardness of between 95 and 105 and is tungsten-based. The diamonds have a size of between 75 and 95 ?m and a concentration of between 2.2 ct/cm3 and 2.64 ct/cm3. Glass, in particular for shaping motor-vehicle glazing units, can be shaped with this grinding wheel, making it possible to achieve travel speeds greater than or equal to 30 m/min.
