Definitions

  • This invention relates to a process for producing a simulated stained and leaded glass structure, and to a mock stained glass window.
  • US-A-3 713 958 discloses painting a glass surface and placing adhesively backed lead strips between the painted design segments on the glass. This process has never been a success because it is not possible to achieve a durable product by painting directly onto glass. The process of painting directly onto glass also suffers another significant failure. This is the difficulty in providing a completely flat surface between adjacent colored segments. When design segments are painted directly onto glass, difficulty is experienced in forming a precise line between the adjacent segments. The painted segments must be applied in a plurality of coats since it is necessary to permit a segment to dry before the adjacent segment is subsequently painted, the result commonly experienced is an overlapping of the paint coatings along the joint line. This presents an uneven surface for the adhesive bonding of the lead strips. As shown in the US-A-3 713 958 these lead strips have a flat undersurface and adequate bonding of the lead strips cannot be achieved because the surface to which the strips are applied is rounded and uneven.
  • a process for producing a simulated stained and leaded glass structure having a plurality of design segments from a pane of glass or plastic having a front side and a reverse side comprising the steps of:
  • a mock stained glass window having a transparent support element, said support element being adapted to support layer means for providing stained glass color characteristics and wherein strips of lead or metal or simulated metal are arranged on at least one side of said support characterized in that: (a) only a single thickness layer means in the form of a flexible sheet or film of polyester material with said stained glass color characteristics and having a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive coating on one side thereof, is provided on only one side of said support element; and (b) the strips are placed either directly on the other side of said support element or are arranged on said one side of the support element to extend along the border of said sheet of polyester film material to overlap the edges of said sheet of polyester film or sheet material.
  • lead strips which are coated with adhesive and applied to a clear glass or plastic pane to define closed areas of a selected pattern, and painted polyester film may be coated with adhesive and applied to the opposite side of the glass or plastic pane, additionally, lead strips may then be applied to the second side of the pane coiniciding with the original strips.
  • the lead strips since they do not separate the pane into small segments, therefore add rather than detract from structural integrity of the pane.
  • the polyester film after being applied with adhesive, becomes permanently affixed to the pane and, coincidentally, becomes a bonding media which minimizes shattering should the pane be broken, and which insulates the pane and reduces its transmission of ultra-violet sun rays.
  • a glass or plastic pane 10 may be seen to be divided into a plurality of closed segments 15 by strips 20.
  • the pane 10 may be any smooth transparent surface and may be in any accessible location. Permissible materials of construction of the pane 10 include tempered double strength, safety plate and frosted glass. Other sheet materials of plastics, such as polycarbonate, poly(methyl-methacrylate), etc., can also be used for pane 10. In applying the techniques as taught herein, removal of the pane 10 from its mounting is unnecessary.
  • the pane 10 may incorporate curved surfaces as found, for example, in vehicle windows and domed skylights. For illustrative purposes, each pane 10 will be assumed to incorporate a front side 11 and a reverse side 12.
  • the strips 20 can be metal or simulated-metal strips, preferably lead, however, brass or copper can also be used. Plastics which simulate metal can also be used as polyurethanes, hard synthetic rubber, etc.
  • the strips 20 are preferably extruded from pure lead or, alternatively, extruded using a lead alloy containing approximately tin and antimony, which alloy has a comparatively slower rate of oxidation.
  • the lead or lead alloy strips 20 may be of various widths depending upon the desired esthetic effect and are preferably approximately 0.022 inch (about 0.5 mm) thick with one flat side.
  • the coating 30 is a film or sheet material of polyester.
  • any or all of the design segments. can also simulate beveled glass by selection of a transparent coating having a substantial thickness, e.g. a glass, polycarbonate or poly(methylmethacrylate) sheet up to about 1/4 inch (about 6 mm) thick and having beveled edges.
  • a jeweled glass appearance can also be simulated in one or more of the design segments by applying one or more flat-sided shapes or transparent material such as glass, polycarbonate or poly(methylacrylate). The exterior surface of these shapes can be faceted, or have a smooth curvature. These shapes are applied with coating 30 and are similarly secured with a pressure sensitive adhesive.
  • Each segment 15 of the design may be variously colored by the addition of a painted coating 30 applied to the reverse side 12 of the pane 10 with the edges of the coating 30 coinciding with the lead strips 20 defining the segment 15.
  • the coating 30 is a flexible, transparent or translucent polyester resin, preferably a polyester sheet approximately one mil or thicker sold commercially under the trademark MYLAR. Interposed between the pane 10 and the coating 30 is an adhesive 31 which greatly adds to the permanence of the simulated stained and leaded glass window and in addition, imparts shatter proof characteristics to the pane 10.
  • the adhesive 31 is a waterproof, pressure sensitive adhesive applied as a layer to the coating 30.
  • the adhesive is a polyester, which may or may not contain a terephthalate component.
  • the adhesive layer may be polyethylene isophthalate or polyethylene hexahydro-terephthalate; or it may be a copolyester of ethylene terephthalate/ethylene isophthalate, or a copolyester of ethylene terephthalate/ ethylene hexahydroterephthalate, or a copolyester of ethylene isophthalate and ethylene hexahydro-terephthalate, or a copolyester of ethylene terephthalate, ethylene isophthalate and ethylene hexahydro-terephthalate.
  • a second lead strip 25 may be applied to the reverse side 12 of the pane 10 coincidentally with the first lead strip 20. This embodiment would commonly be preferred where the pane 10 is routinely viewed from both the front 11 and reverse sides 12.
  • the pane 10 is first scrupulously cleaned and a decorative design is drawn directly upon the pane 10.
  • a design drawn on paper may be temporarily taped to the reverse side 12 of the pane 10.
  • an appropriate adhesive 21 is applied to the flat side of the first lead strips 20.
  • the adhesive 21 is preferably either clear, silver-gray, or black depending upon the esthetic effect desired.
  • the lead may then be stretched to remove any kinks and undesired bends and then laid upon the front side 11 of the pane 10 covering the previously drawn lines of the design.
  • a wooden tool, not shown, having a concave contour similar to the convex exposed side of the lead strips 20 is preferably utilized to urge the lead strips 20firmly onto the pane 10 thus removing all entrapped air pockets and sealing the edges of the strips 20.
  • Excess adhesive 21 may be removed by wiping with solvent, which can also remove any oxidation from the lead strips 20.
  • the next step involves applying the polyester coating 30 to the opposite side 12 of the pane 10 to simulate the appearance of colored glass.
  • a sheet of polyester coating 30 must be chosen which equals or exceeds all the dimensions of the design section 15 to be colored.
  • Polyester films which are coated with waterproof adhesives are commercially available, or alternatively, the waterproof adhesive 31 can be brushed, sprayed or rolled onto one side of the coating 30.
  • a lubricant that exhibits little or no solvency for the adhesive, such as a soap solution must then be brushed, sprayed or rolled onto the same side of the polyester coating 30.
  • the soap solution neutralizes the adhesive 31 and allows the coating 30 to be positioned upon the reverse side 12 of the pane 10 where it may be slid into position opposite the appropriate design segment 15, where the coating 30 is then trimmed with a razor blade to match the edges of the coating 30 with the lead strips 20 of the design segment 15.
  • the coatings can be pre-cut to fit each design segment, particularly, where a standard design with die cut coating films is used.
  • the soap solution is then removed by pressing the coating 30 firmly against the pane 10 with a squeegee or similar tool, not shown in the drawing.
  • the adhesive 31 permanantly bonds the coating 30 to the pane 10.
  • a polyester coating 30 is painted, preferably by a silkscreening process, prior to being applied to the pane 10 as discussed previously.
  • the use of silk screening allows a broad range of effects including the simulation of "opaque” or translucent stained glass. This particular effect is enhanced by the use of "frosted" polyester.
  • second lead strips 25 may be spatially located to coincide with the first lead strips 20.
  • the use of second lead strips 25 is particularly desirable when the adhesive 21 used to secure the first lead strips 20 is black.
  • the polyester coating 30 used is of the painted type, as discussed above, it is preferable to utilize a transparent polyester coating, not shown in the drawing, similarly applied and covering the first coating 30 prior to attaching the second lead strips 25 so as to assure a permanent bond for the second lead strips 25.
  • the invention can also be practiced more quickly than prior methods of painting glass to simulate colored glass, since the method isn't interrupted to permit paint coatings to dry and there is no need to mask off areas of the glass before applying coatings 30.
  • the pressure sensitive adhesive has an excellent adhesion and provides a permanent bonding of the coating 30, where its peel strength exceeds its tear strength.
  • the coating, particularly the polyester coating provides greater adhesion for paints than does a glass surface and the stability of the coating increases with weathering and age.
