Abstract

L'invention concerne une borne pour vitrage encapsulé ayant des revêtements ou des équipements nécessitant une alimentation électrique. Elle propose une borne par exemple du type rivet creux, fixée notamment par soudure ou brasure, dans la région des bords du vitrage sur une zone ayant un revêtement conducteur, enrobée dans la matière d'encapsulation du vitrage. Elle permet d'alimenter aisément par exemple des vitrages chauffants.The invention relates to a terminal for encapsulated glazing having coatings or equipment requiring an electrical supply. It proposes a terminal for example of the hollow rivet type, fixed in particular by welding or brazing, in the region of the edges of the glazing on an area having a conductive coating, coated in the encapsulation material of the glazing. It makes it possible to easily supply, for example, heated glazing.

Description

La présente invention concerne un vitrage encapsulé alimenté électriquement et plus précisément une borne d'alimentation électrique pour vitrage encapsulé ayant des revêtements ou des équipements néces­sitant une alimentation électrique.The present invention relates to an electrically powered encapsulated glazing and more specifically an electrical supply terminal for encapsulated glazing having coatings or equipment requiring an electrical supply.

Les bornes utilisées avec des vitrages classiques, c'est à dire non encapsulés, comme par exemple celles décrites dans le document de brevet FR 1527738 ne sont pas compatibles avec une encapsulation des vitrages, c'est à dire l'incorporation desdits vitrages dans un cadre en matière organique polymérisée fabriqué par moulage sur la périphérie desdits vitrages. Les bornes électriques seraient enrobées dans la ma­tière polymérisée et devraient d'abord être dégagées pour que le bran­chement électrique puisse être fait.The terminals used with conventional glazing, that is to say not encapsulated, such as for example those described in patent document FR 1527738 are not compatible with encapsulation of glazing, that is to say the incorporation of said glazing in a frame in polymerized organic material produced by molding on the periphery of said glazing. The electrical terminals would be encased in polymerized material and should first be cleared so that the electrical connection could be made.

En outre, ces bornes classiques sont généralement assez fra­giles et elles ne supporteraient peut être pas sans dommage l'opération de dégagement.In addition, these conventional terminals are generally quite fragile and they may not withstand the release operation without damage.

Par ailleurs, on endommagerait le cadre d'encapsulation.Furthermore, the encapsulation frame would be damaged.

La présente invention propose une borne électrique pour vi­trage encapsulé, facile à mettre en place, ne nécessitant pas d'opéra­tion de dégagement après encapsulation, d'un coût réduit à tel point qu'il est pensable d'en équiper systématiquement tous les vitrages en­capsulés susceptibles d'être alimentés électriquement, que ces vitrages soient effectivement alimentés ou non, la borne non utilisée ne dépa­rant pas l'esthétique du vitrage et ne procurant aucune gêne. Cette borne est également utilisable pour des vitrages non encapsulés.The present invention provides an electrical terminal for encapsulated glazing, easy to install, requiring no release operation after encapsulation, at a cost reduced to such an extent that it is conceivable to systematically equip all of the encapsulated glazing likely to be supplied electrically, whether these glazings are actually supplied or not, the unused terminal does not affect the aesthetics of the glazing and does not cause any discomfort. This terminal can also be used for non-encapsulated glazing.

La borne selon l'invention est constituée d'un rivet creux ou d'un bouton pression fixé de manière à assurer la jonction électrique sur une zone conductrice déposée sur le vitrage.The terminal according to the invention consists of a hollow rivet or a press button fixed so as to provide the electrical connection on a conductive area deposited on the glazing.

Dans le cas d'un vitrage encapsulé, la borne est fixée sur une zone conductrice du vitrage, en bordure dudit vitrage et elle est enrobée dans le polymère d'encapsulation du vitrage de façon telle qu'elle affleure la surface extérieure de la matière d'encapsulation formant cadre autour du vitrage.In the case of an encapsulated glazing, the terminal is fixed on a conducting zone of the glazing, at the edge of said glazing and it is coated in the polymer for encapsulating the glazing so that it is flush with the external surface of the material d encapsulation forming a frame around the glazing.

Avantageusement cette borne est une borne femelle constituée par un rivet creux dont la partie évasée est fixée sur le vitrage et dont l'extrêmité de la partie opposée rétrécie affleure la surface de la matière d'encapsulation.Advantageously, this terminal is a female terminal constituted by a hollow rivet, the flared part of which is fixed to the glazing and the end of the narrowed opposite part of which is flush with the surface of the encapsulation material.

L'invention sera maintenant décrite plus en détail en réfé­ rence aux figures jointes qui représentent :

  • Figure 1 : la soudure d'une borne en forme de rivet creux sur le bord d'un vitrage recouvert totalement ou partiellement d'un dépôt conducteur.
  • Figure 2 : la mise en place du vitrage équipé de sa borne d'alimentation électrique dans un moule d'encapsulation.
  • Figure 3 : la fabrication du cadre d'encapsulation et l'en­tourage de la borne par la matière du cadre d'encapsulation.
  • Figure 4 : une borne associée à une pince.
The invention will now be described in more detail with reference Refer to the attached figures which represent:
  • Figure 1 : the soldering of a terminal in the form of a hollow rivet on the edge of a glazing completely or partially covered with a conductive deposit.
  • Figure 2 : the installation of the glazing fitted with its electrical supply terminal in an encapsulation mold.
  • Figure 3 : the manufacture of the encapsulation frame and the surrounding of the terminal by the material of the encapsulation frame.
  • Figure 4 : a terminal associated with a clamp.

L'invention est particulièrement adaptée à l'alimentation en courant électrique, de vitrages encapsulés recouverts sur tout ou par­tie de leur surface de dépôts électriquement conducteurs.The invention is particularly suitable for the supply of electric current, of encapsulated glazing covered on all or part of their surface with electrically conductive deposits.

Ces dépôts sont des bandes conductrices réalisées par séri­graphie et galvanoplastie, et/ou des couches minces de métal ou d'oxy­des métalliques. Comme couches minces on peut citer les couches d'oxyde d'étain, d'ITO (indium tin oxide), les empilements de couches du type oxyde d'étain/Ag/oxyde d'étain. Des couches conductrices autres que celles ci-dessus exemplifiées sont également concernées par cette in­vention.These deposits are conductive strips produced by screen printing and electroplating, and / or thin layers of metal or metal oxides. As thin layers there may be mentioned the layers of tin oxide, of ITO (indium tin oxide), the stacks of layers of the tin oxide / Ag / tin oxide type. Conductive layers other than those above exemplified are also affected by this invention.

Les vitrages ainsi revêtus sont utilisés aussi bien dans le domaine de l'automobile que dans le domaine du bâtiment.The glazing thus coated is used both in the automotive field and in the building sector.

Il peut s'agir de dépôts et/ou couches chauffants, anti-­effraction (c'est à dire dont la rupture de la continuité électrique et/ou la modification de la résistance électrique, ou l'effet de fuite du champ, c'est à dire non réflexion IR, à la suite du bris consécutif à une effraction déclenchent un signal avertissant de l'effraction ou une action), à fonction d'antenne radio, à fonction de récepteur de si­gnaux IR de télécommande.It can be deposits and / or heating layers, burglar-proof (that is to say the breaking of the electrical continuity and / or the modification of the electrical resistance, or the leakage effect of the field, it ie no IR reflection, following a breakage following a break-in trigger a signal warning of the break-in or an action), with radio antenna function, with IR remote control signal receiver function.

Selon l'invention, une borne 1 est fixée sur le dépôt conduc­teur 2 recouvrant tout ou partie d'un vitrage 3, ce dépôt conducteur étant comme déjà dit, un dépôt sérigraphié et/ou une couche mince mé­tallique (métal ou oxyde métallique). Cette borne 1 est fixée sur une partie de dépôt affleurant le bord du vitrage 3 destinée à être enrobée ultérieurement par un cadre d'encapsulation en matière organique poly­mérisée.According to the invention, a terminal 1 is fixed on the conductive deposit 2 covering all or part of a glazing unit 3, this conductive deposit being, as already said, a screen-printed deposit and / or a thin metallic layer (metal or metal oxide). This terminal 1 is fixed on a deposit part flush with the edge of the glazing 3 intended to be subsequently coated with an encapsulation frame made of polymerized organic material.

Pour garantir un bon maintien de cette borne 1 et un bon contact électrique avec le dépôt ou la couche conductrice 2, cette bor­ne est soudée ou brasée à l'étain.To guarantee good maintenance of this terminal 1 and good electrical contact with the deposit or the conductive layer 2, this terminal is soldered or soldered with tin.

D'autres modes de fixation sont toutefois également possibles. Ainsi à titre d'exemple non limitatif on peut associer la borne 1 à une pince 4 (fig. 4) destinée à chevaucher la tranche du vi­trage 3 ayant sur au moins une face le dépôt et/ou le film conducteur 2, ladite pince exerçant un effet ressort qui garantit le contact élec­trique et le bon maintien même avant son enrobage par la matière du ca­dre d'encapsulation.Other methods of attachment are also possible. Thus by way of nonlimiting example, terminal 1 can be associated with a clamp 4 (fig. 4) intended to overlap the edge of the glazing 3 having on at least one face the deposit and / or the conductive film 2, said clamp exerting a spring effect which guarantees electrical contact and good support even before it is coated with the material of the encapsulation frame.

Cette pince 4 reste de dimensions réduites de façon à pouvoir s'insérer dans le moule d'encapsulation et à ne pas former de protubé­rance génante après encapsulation du vitrage.This clamp 4 remains of reduced dimensions so as to be able to be inserted into the encapsulation mold and not to form an annoying protuberance after encapsulation of the glazing.

La hauteur de cette borne 1 est prévue pour être du même or­dre de grandeur que l'épaisseur du cadre d'encapsulation, de façon que l'accès à cette borne n'oblige à aucun dégagement de matière polyméri­sée, de façon également que cette borne ne forme pas de protubérance, génante pour l'esthétique de vitrage, pour le montage ou la manipula­tion du vitrage, pour la fabrication du cadre d'encapsulation et l'in­sertion du vitrage ainsi équipé dans le moule servant à fabriquer ce cadre.The height of this terminal 1 is designed to be of the same order of magnitude as the thickness of the encapsulation frame, so that access to this terminal does not require any release of polymerized material, so also that this terminal does not form a protrusion, annoying for the aesthetics of glazing, for mounting or handling the glazing, for the manufacture of the encapsulation frame and the insertion of the glazing thus equipped in the mold used to manufacture this frame.

Différentes formes de bornes sont possibles : un rivet creux du type de celui représenté sur les figures 1 à 3, un bouton pression mâle ou femelle mais de préférence femelle, etc...Different terminal forms are possible: a hollow rivet of the type shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, a male or female but preferably female press button, etc.

Le rivet creux représenté sur les figures 1 à 3 présente tou­tefois l'avantage d'avoir une base élargie grâce à laquelle il peut être facilement soudé et grâce à laquelle également un bon contact électrique peut être établi, d'avoir une extrêmité opposée rétrécie ne nuisant pas à l'esthétique, d'être un produit banalisé très bon marché.The hollow rivet shown in Figures 1 to 3, however, has the advantage of having an enlarged base thanks to which it can be easily welded and thanks to which also a good electrical contact can be established, to have a narrowed opposite end does not not detrimental to aesthetics, to be a very cheap commonplace product.

Comme illustré figure 2, le vitrage 3, équipé de sa borne 1, par exemple en forme de rivet creux est mis en place dans un moule d'encapsulation 5, le bord du vitrage 3 équipé de sa borne 1 se trou­vant alors dans l'espace élargi 6 du moule 5 (fig. 3)à l'intérieur du­quel sera ultérieurement injectée ou coulée la matière organique destinée à constituer le cadre d'encapsulation. Après fabrication du cadre d'encapsulation le vitrage encapsulé est démoulé.As illustrated in FIG. 2, the glazing 3, equipped with its terminal 1, for example in the form of a hollow rivet, is placed in an encapsulation mold 5, the edge of the glazing 3 equipped with its terminal 1 then being in the enlarged space 6 of the mold 5 (fig. 3) inside which will later be injected or poured the organic material intended to constitute the encapsulation framework. After manufacture of the encapsulation frame, the encapsulated glazing is removed from the mold.

La borne 1 est enrobée dans la matière organique, ce qui ren­force son maintien, évite sa dégradation à la suite de chocs, empêche sa corrosion et la détérioration du contact électrique.Terminal 1 is coated in organic matter, which reinforces its retention, prevents its degradation following shocks, prevents its corrosion and deterioration of the electrical contact.

Le branchement de la borne 1 à une source d'alimentation électrique se fait simplement par branchement d'une fiche dans la borne 1, du type fiche mâle banane dans le cas d'une borne 1 en forme de rivet.The connection of terminal 1 to a power source is done simply by connecting a plug in terminal 1, of the banana plug type in the case of a terminal 1 in the form of a rivet.

Eventuellement, le branchement de cette fiche peut nécessiter l'enfoncement d'une pellicule de matière organique qui recouvrirait l'opercule du rivet.Optionally, the connection of this plug may require the insertion of a film of organic material which would cover the cover of the rivet.

Le vitrage sur lequel peut être fixée cette borne est un vi­trage simple ou multiple.The glazing on which this terminal can be fixed is single or multiple glazing.

Dans le texte qui précède il n'a été fait mention que d'une seule borne par vitrage, mais bien entendu une pluralité de telles bor­nes peut très bien équiper un même vitrage.In the preceding text, only one terminal has been mentioned per glazing, but of course a plurality of such terminals may very well be fitted to the same glazing.

Dans ce texte, la borne électrique a été décrite comme étant disposée sur le bord du vitrage dans une zone destinée à être enserrée dans la matière du cadre d'encapsulation. Bien entendu des bornes tel­les que les rivets creux ou les boutons pression fixés solidement par brasure ou soudure sur un vitrage dans une zone conductrice, peuvent aussi bien se trouver ailleurs que sur les bords dudit vitrage, par exemple dans les régions du centre du vitrage, que ce vitrage soit ou non encapsulé.In this text, the electrical terminal has been described as being disposed on the edge of the glazing in an area intended to be enclosed in the material of the encapsulation frame. Of course, terminals such as hollow rivets or snaps fastened securely by soldering or welding on a glazing in a conductive zone, may as well be elsewhere than on the edges of said glazing, for example in the regions of the center of the glazing, whether or not this glazing is encapsulated.

Ces bornes ont été décrites comme servant à alimenter élec­triquement des dépôts conducteurs faits sur le vitrage, mais elles peu­vent aussi être utilisées pour alimenter électriquement des éléments électriques incorporés dans le vitrage ou accolés ou associés au vitra­ge par exemple des éclairages, (lampes, phares) des instruments élec­triques divers. Certes l'incorporation de ces bornes dans la matière d'encapsulation les rend invisibles ou presque, renforce leur protection vis à vis de chocs ou de la corrosion, et donc présente des avantages divers ; mais cela n'est pas indispensable.These terminals have been described as being used for electrically supplying conductive deposits made on the glazing, but they can also be used for electrically supplying electrical elements incorporated in the glazing or attached to or associated with the glazing, for example lighting, (lamps, headlights) various electrical instruments. Admittedly, the incorporation of these terminals in the encapsulation material makes them almost invisible, reinforces their protection against impact or corrosion, and therefore has various advantages; but this is not essential.
