Abstract
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
A method of manufacturing a sealed triple glazed window unit which incorporates a matrix pane which has plated came members which will not tarnish after assembly of the sealed window unit. The first step in the method is to assemble a matrix pane which consists of a plurality of came members which secure adjacent sections of glass in an edge-to-edge relationship and extend about the perimeter of the matrix pane. The assembled matrix pane is then plated to coat the exposed surfaces of the came members. The plated matrix pane is then heated to a temperature which is sufficient and for a period of time which is sufficient to cause any liquid which is trapped in the came member to evaporate to thereby thoroughly dry the plated matrix pane. The outer panes are then arranged one on either side of the plated matrix pane and are secured thereto to form an assembly to provide a sealed triple-glazed window unit.

Title WINDOW ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF M~KING SAME
Field of Invention This invention relates to sealed triple-glazed window units in which a matrix pane such as a leaded matrix pane is located between two outer panes in a spaced relationship. In particular, this invention relates to a sealed triple-glazed window unit in which the came of the matrix is plated prior to assembly.
Prior Art Considerably dificulty has been experienced in attempting to manufacture sealed triple-glazed window units in which a matrix pane is located between two outer panes in a spaced relationship and wherein the came members of the matrix are plated prior to assembly of the sealed window unit. It has been found that the plated surfaces of leaded came members or came members made from brass, zinc or the like tend to develop stained or tarnished areas after the unit has been sealed and for this reason, the assembly of this type of unit has been substantially discontinued for some time. Manufacturers of sealed tripple-glazed window units generally believed that the staining or tarnishing that occurrs results from the presence of residual acidic deposits which remain in the channels of the came after the conventional plating process. This residual acid absorbs any moisture that remains in the sealed unit and it then tends to migrate to the plated surfaces where it stains or tarnishes the c plated coating.
~, y lZg~7~
As will be described hereinafter, the came members are formed with U-shaped channels into which the edge oE a glass pane is inserted. Oil based putty has been used as a grouting material which is applied to the bottom wall of the channel and serves to resiliently secure and cushion the came with respect to the edge of the window pane. While the channel of the ca~e is designed to receive the edge of the glass pane in a close-fitting relationship, a gap will frequently be formed in the base of the came resulting from the presence of the grouting material. This gap becomes filled with water or other fluid during the plating and rinsing operation and I believe that it is this acidic liquid and or its residue which subsequently causes the staining or tarnishing of the plated came after the window is assembled. The presence of this liquid is not readily apparent when the leaded matrix is inspected prior to assembly. After assembly, this trapped liquid seeps out of the channel in which it is trapped and stains the plated surface of the plated lead came members.
Summary of Invention It is an object of the present invention to provide a method of manufacturing a sealed triple-glazed window unit which incorporates a matrix pane which has plated came members which will not tarnish after assembly of the sealed window unit.
:~2947~) . ~
According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of manufacturing a sealed triple-glazed window unit which comprises a matrix pane which is sealed between two outer panes in a spaced relationship comprising the steps of assembling a matrix pane which CollSiSts of a plurality of came members which secure adjacent sections of glass in an edge-to-edge relationship and extend about the perimeter of the matrix pane, plating the assembled matrix pane t:o coat the exposed surfaces of the came members, heating the plated matrix pane to a temperature which is sufficient and for a period of time which is sufficient to cause any liquid which is trapped in the came member to evaporate to thereby thoroughly dry the plated matrix pane, assembling the outer panes one on either side of the plated matrix pane while it is still hot and securing the assembly to provide a sealed triple-glazed window unit.
According to a further aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of manufacturing a matrix window pane which which consists of a plurality of came members and a plurality of panes of glass, each came member having at least one edge mounting channel formed therein, comprising the steps of;
~; applying a bead of hot-melt adhesive to the base of each channel of the came members and allowing the bead to cool to room temperature, heating the came members and the glass panes in a heated enclosure to a sufficient extent to render the hot melt pliable, assembling the hot came and glass panes to form a matrix by inserting the panes into the mounting channels to a sufficient , 77~1 extent to cause the hot melt to be displaced to substantially fill all of the channel which i5 not occupied by the glass panes to prevent the formation of voids in the channels, soldering abutting ends of the came members to one another, plating the assembled matrix pane to coat the exposed surfaces of the came members, heating the plated matrix pane to a temperature and for a period of time which is suf~icient to cause any liquid which is trapped ln the came members to evaporate to thereby thoroughly dry the plated matrix pane.
The invention will be more clearly understood after reference to the following detailed specification read in conjunction with the drawings wherein:
Figure 1 is an exploded pictorial view of a window unit constructed in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 is a sectional view taken along the line 2-2 of Figure 1, Figure 3 is a pictorial view of a matrix pane constructed in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 is a sectional view taken along the line 4-4 of Figure 3.
In Figure 1 of the drawings, the reference~ nLmeral 10 refers generally to a window unit which consists of a sealed triple-glazed window unit 12 and a pair of frame members 14. To assemble the window unit 10, the sealed triple-glazed window unit 12 is sandwiched between the frame members 14 in a well-known manner.
3L29~
, The sealed triple-glazed window unit 12 comprises a matrix pane 16 and a pair of outer panes 18. As shown in Figure 2 of the drawings, a generally U-shaped came member 20 is mounted on the edge of the matrix pane 16. A pair of conventional spacer members 22 are positioned one on either side of the came ~ember 20 and the outer panes 18 are positioned in a face-to-face relationship so that they bear against the spacer members 2Z. A
coating 24 of a sealing material such as a polysulphide seal is applied about the peripheral edge of the assembly and it serves to completely seal the assembly so that no air is admitted to the gaps 26 which are formed between the matrix pane 16 and the panes 18. The spacer members 22 have conventional openings 28 formed therein and a desiccant material is housed in the chambers 30 which are formed internally of the spacers 22 in a conventional manner. This desiccant serves to remove moisture from the air gaps 26.
As shown in Figure 3 of the drawings, the matrix pane 16 comprises a plurality of glass panes 32a, 32b, 32c, 32d and 32e which are connected in an edge-to-edge relationship by means of H-shaped came members 34 and are bounded about their perimeter by the U-shaped came members 20. The came members 20 and 34 are extruded members and the abutting ends of the members 34 are welded to one another.
As shown in Figure 4 of the drawings, a bead 36 of a hot melt adhesive is located in the base of each U-shaped channel 3~.
This bead can create a narrow gap 40 in the base of the U-shaped channels even after the window is assembled. ~n addition, because -~ ~Z ~ ~7 J~
the came members are made from a maleable metal such as lead, brass, copper or zinc it is possible for narrow gaps to be formed at various points along the length of each channel between the side walls of the channel and the side faces of the window panes.
In the manufacture of a sealed triple glazed window unit according to the present invention the first step is to assemble the matrix pane so as to produce the product illustrated in Figures 3 and 4 of the drawings. When a lead came is used it is prepared in a conventional manner by stretching it to add rigidity ; and by cutting it to the required length. The glass panes are prepared in a conventional manner and are cut to the required shape and size. A bead of hot melt adhesive is applied to the bottom wall of the channel of each came member 20 and 34. A
sufficient amount of hot melt adhesive is applied to ensure that the cavity is substantially filled when the edge of a glass pane is subsequently located therein. The hot melt adhesive is allowed to cool. All of the components which are required to provide an assembled matrix pane 16 are then heated in an enclosure to a sufficient extent to cause the hot melt adhesive to become pliable and to thoroughly dry each of the components. The ~atrix pane 16 is then asse~bled by positioning the edges of the glass panes in the channels of the came and applying sufficient pressure to ensure that the pliable hot melt will be displaced by the edge of the glass pane and will fill the cavity formed between the edge of the glass pane and the came so that virtually no space remains therebetween which ~ay be subsequently occupied by the plating fluid. The came members are then soldered together using a , 129477~
conventional soldering technique in which a flux of a type which will leave a minimal amount of residue is used. After the matrix pane 16 has been assembled in this manner, all subsequent manual handling is carried out by operators who have required to wear cotton gloves to avoid the application of fingerprints to the assembly which can leave permanent: stains or marks on the assembly. The assembled pane is then cleaned using mineral spirits and a glass cleaner which preferably contains no amonia.
The assembled units are then plated in an electro~plating process to apply a coating of a metal which will enhance the appearance and surface finish of the came. The came may be plated with a metal such as brass, copper, crome, peuter or the like.
The coating will be applied over the full length of the came including the abutting, soldered or welded ends thereof so that the coating will have a generally uniform appearnce. After the electro-plating process is completed, the plated matrix is then rinsed in hot water and it is dried by means of a hot-air dryer which blows hot air across the asse~bly to dry all of the liquid.
It is important to note that during the plating process and subsequent drying, the unit will be suspended vertically so that the rinse water will only settle on the upper side of the horizontal came.
Contrary to previous practices, no lacquer or paint is sprayed onto the plated surface at this stage. In prior methods of manufacturing, the plated product is lacquered and spray painted, however, there is a tendency for this lacquer or spray paint to spill over onto the glass and this adversely effects the appearance of the finished product.
12947~
The plated and dried window units of the present invention are then checked for moisture by applying a jet of hot air along the edges of the came which would displace any moisture located thereon and give a visual indication of the presence of moisture which can then be removed by wiping the asse.~bly to dry the moisture which is detected.
The assembled matrix pane 16 is then located in an oven where it is heated to a temperature and for a sufficient time to ensure that it is thoroughly dry. This drying can be achieved by heating the matrix to a temperature of about 175F for about two hours. The matrix pane 16 is then removed from the oven and assembled into a sealed window unit in a conventional manner to produce the product which is shown in cross-section in Figure 20 I have found that a sealed triple glazed window unit constructed in accordance with this method remains free of tarnish and staining of the type commonly encountered with the conventional assembly methods.
' ~2~ o fJ
In the method of the present invention I locate the matrix panes in a horizontal plane when they are ~tored in the oven during the drying process so as to prevent any fluid, which may be trapped in the channels 40, running along the channels in order to accumulate in a localized area when the matrix pane is arranged so that it stands up on one edge.
From the foregoing it will be apparent that the present invention provides a simple and inexpensive method of manufacturing a sealed triple glazed window unit which incorporates a matrix pane which will not stain or tarnish after assembly.
