Fig. 2
a cross section through the embodiment of FIG. 1.

Die Fig. 1 und 2 zeigen eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung in Frontansicht (Fig. 1) bzw. im vertikalen Querschnitt (Fig. 2). Die Anordnung besteht aus zwei Einzelglasscheiben 1a, 1b, die an ihrem Rand durch einen Aluminium- oder Kunststoffabstandhalter 2 im heute üblichen Abstand von 16 mm gehalten werden, wobei der Scheibenzwischenraum diffusionsdicht abgeschlossen ist.Figs. 1 and 2 show an embodiment of the invention in front view (Fig. 1) and in vertical cross section (Fig. 2). The arrangement consists of two individual glass panes 1a, 1b, which at its edge by an aluminum or plastic spacers 2 are kept in today's usual distance of 16 mm, with the space between the panes is sealed diffusion-tight.

Im Scheibenzwischenraum ist die Sonnenschutz- oder Verdunkelungsblende in Gestalt eines motorisch betätigbaren Faltstores angeordnet ist. Das obere Ende des Faltstores ist an einem Trägerprofil 4 befestigt, und das untere Ende des Faltstores 3 ist mit einem Zugstab 5 verbunden. Der Faltstore 3 selbst kann aus geeignetem Gewebematerial oder beispielsweise aus aluminiumbeschichteter Kunststoffolie oder einem anderen geeigneten Material bestehen. Vertikale Spanndrähte 6 verbessern die Führung des Faltstores bei seiner Entfaltung und beim Zusammenfalten. Sie verlaufen zwischen dem oberen Trägerprofil 4 und einem unteren Motorabdeckprofil 7.In the space between the panes, the sunshade or blackout is in shape a motor-operated folding blind is arranged. The upper end of the folding blind is on fixed to a support profile 4, and the lower end of the folding blind 3 is with a pull rod 5 connected. The folding door 3 itself can be made of suitable fabric material or for example of aluminum coated plastic film or other suitable material consist. Vertical tension wires 6 improve the guidance of the folding blind when unfolding and when folding. They run between the upper beam profile 4 and a lower Motorabdeckprofil 7.
