Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for producing a pane with a pattern-shaped functional coating.
- the present invention relates to the pane with a pattern-shaped functional coating and its use.
- Glazing in buildings and vehicles is increasingly being provided with large, electrically conductive layers that are transparent to visible light and that have to fulfill certain functions. These layers are commonly referred to as functional layers. For example, high demands are placed on glazing with regard to its heat-insulating properties for reasons of energy saving and comfort. So it is desirable to avoid a high heat input through solar radiation, which leads to excessive heating of the interior and in turn results in high energy costs for the necessary air conditioning.
- a low-E layer reflects a significant part of the incoming solar radiation, especially in the infrared range, which leads to reduced heating of the interior in summer.
- the Low-E layer also reduces the emission of long-wave thermal radiation from a heated pane into the interior when the Low-E layer is applied to the surface of a pane facing the interior. In winter, when outside temperatures are low, the heat from the interior is prevented from radiating to the outside environment.
- Another application of functional layers aims to keep the field of vision of a vehicle window free of ice and fog.
- Electrical heating layers are known which, by applying an electrical voltage, bring about targeted heating of the vehicle window or partial areas of the vehicle window (see, for example, WO 2010/043598 A1).
- the functional layer can also only be desired in a partial area of the pane.
- a heating function may only be required in the area of a windshield in which the windshield wipers are in the rest position.
- EP 3076753 A1 discloses an electrically conductive functional coating which is applied in areas to a laminated pane and which is contacted with busbars and a method for producing it. If a voltage is applied to the bus bars, a heating current flows through the functional coating. The functional coating is partially decoated, creating a pattern of coated and decoated areas. The electrical resistance between the busbars results from the special dimensions of the sample, so that the heating power can be better adjusted.
- the object of the present invention is to provide an improved method for producing a pane with a functional coating applied in certain areas.
- the production should be able to do without the step of laser processing of the coating.
- the object of the present invention is achieved according to the invention by a method for producing a pane with a functional coating that has been decoated in some areas.
- Preferred embodiments emerge from the dependent claims.
- the invention relates to a method for producing a disk.
- the process is divided into several process steps below.
- a glass pane with an outer surface and an inner surface is provided.
- the outer surface or the inner surface have an electrically conductive coating at least in regions.
- a printed layer is applied to at least two linear areas of the electrically conductive coating.
- the print layer is baked, the electrically conductive coating located under the print layer being decomposed and an opaque, linear print area arising from each linear area with the print layer.

- the glass pane 1 and the second glass pane 6 are connected to one another via a thermoplastic intermediate layer 5 .
- the thermoplastic intermediate layer 5 is arranged between the outer surface a, III of the first glass pane 1 and the inner surface II of the second glass pane 6 .
- the second glass pane 6 consists, for example, of soda-lime glass, is transparent and has a thickness of 2.1 mm, for example.
- the thermoplastic intermediate layer 5 is based on polyvinyl butyral, for example, and has a thickness of 0.5 mm.
- the glass pane 1 is transparent and consists, for example, of soda-lime glass and has a thickness of approximately 1.6 mm.
- the electrically conductive coating 2 is not applied to the inner surface i, IV of the glass pane 1, but to the outer surface a, III of the first glass pane 1.
- the pattern 7 with the pressure-free areas 10 and the pressure areas 11 is also arranged correspondingly on the outer surface a, III of the first glass pane 1 .
- the pattern 7 is visually recognizable when viewed through the pane 100 .
- the pattern 7 has the same dimensions as described for FIG. 1 and is arranged on the outer surface a, III of the first glass pane 1 locally parallel to the arrangement on the inner surface i of the glass pane 1 as described in FIG.
- the first and the second bus bar 8.1, 8.2 are in electrical and physical contact with the pressure-free areas 10, as described in FIG.
- FIG. 3 shows an enlarged view of the pattern 7 from FIG. 1 or FIG. 2, which is electrically contacted via a first busbar 8.1 in the upper edge area and a second busbar 8.2 in the lower edge area.
- the first busbar 8.1 is electrically connected to all of the first connection areas and the second busbar 8.2 is electrically connected to all of the second connection areas.
- the connection areas mean the area of the pressure-free areas 10 which is provided for electrical contacting.
- the pressure-free areas 10 are areas which are coated with the electrically conductive 2 .
- the print areas 11 are areas which have been decoated by means of the baked print layer 3 .
- Each pressure-free area 10 has a first connection area and a second connection area.
- the pressure-free areas 10 and pressure areas 11 run in a sinusoidal manner from the first busbar 8.1 to the second busbar 8.2 (sine curves shown schematically).
- the sinusoidal lines of the pressure-free areas 10 have an average width of 500 ⁇ m to 5 mm, for example. "Width” is understood to be the dimension of the coated areas perpendicular to their extension. Instead of the sinusoidal course of the pressure-free areas 10 and the pressure areas 11, a zigzag course or a meandering course would also be possible.
- the print areas 11 decoated by the method according to the invention are electrically non-conductive.
- the pressure areas 11 and the pressure-free areas 10 are arranged in alternating sinusoidal fashion. Due to the sinusoidal course of the pressure-free areas 10, the current path between the busbars 8.1, 8.2 is lengthened compared to the direct connection between the busbars 8.1, 8.2, which leads to a lower heating power due to the increased electrical resistance.
- the current path can be lengthened or shortened by changing the amplitude of the sine wave curve, with which the heating power can be precisely adjusted.
- FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 show the process steps of the method according to the invention for the production of various configurations of the disk 100, the initial stage, the product and the individual intermediate stages being represented by a vertical longitudinal section of the disk 100.
- FIG. In a first method step A, the uncoated glass pane 1 is provided.
- the glass pane 1 has an outer surface a, an inner surface i, a lower edge VI and an upper edge V. Viewed from above, the glass pane 1 has the same shape as that shown in FIG.

- the electrically conductive coating 2 is applied to the inner surface i of the glass pane 1 over the entire surface.
- the electrically conductive coating 2 could also be applied to the inner surface i of the glass pane 1 only in certain areas.
- the electrically conductive coating 2 is applied, for example, by means of cathode deposition supported by a magnetic field and has thin layers of an electrically conductive material which contains indium tin oxide.
- a printed layer 3 is applied in regions to the electrically conductive coating 2 by means of screen printing.
- the printed layer 3 is applied near the lower edge VI in an area that is intended as the resting position for the windshield wipers in the finished windshield 100 (as shown, for example, in FIG. 1).
- a pattern 7 is formed by the application of the printed layer 3, which pattern consists of sinusoidally running printed areas 11 covered with the printed layer 3 and sinusoidally running printed areas 10.
- the printing layer 3 contains, for example, a pigment and glass frits.
- the glass frits are formed, for example, on the basis of bismuth zinc borate.
- the printed layer 3 has decomposing properties compared to the electrically conductive coating 2 .
- a fourth method step D the print layer 3 is burned in, with the electrically conductive coating 2 underneath being decomposed and linear print areas 11 being formed.
- the pattern 7 formed from this is described in more detail for FIG. 3, for example.
- the line-shaped print areas 11 have no electrical conductivity and properties that do not reflect thermal radiation.
- the pattern 7 is intended to be electrically connected to a first busbar 8.1 and a second busbar 8.2, so that a heating current can flow through the pattern 7 (as described and shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3, for example).
- the first busbar 8.1 and the second busbar 8.2 are preferably connected to the pattern 7 in such a way that the current path between the busbars 8.1, 8.2 has the greatest possible length.
- the uncomplicated decoating of the glass pane 1 means that no additional steps are required beforehand when coating the glass pane 1 in step B, or that the coated glass pane 1 has to be decoated in some areas, for example by means of laser ablation (laser vaporization).
- a further process step for removing excess material after the decoating is also omitted, since the printed layer 3 is firmly connected to the glass pane 1 after firing.
- FIG. 5 The method steps shown in FIG. 5 essentially correspond to the variant from FIG. 4, so that only the differences are discussed here and otherwise reference is made to the description of FIG.
- FIG. 5 shows that a glass pane 1 is provided with a black print 4 applied to the inner surface i in the edge region.
- the black print 4 borders on the lower edge VI of the glass pane 1.
- the black print 4 consists, for example, of an electrically non-conductive material conventionally used for masking strips, for example a black-colored screen printing ink that is baked.
- a second method step B the electrically conductive coating 2 is applied to the entire surface of the inner surface i of the glass pane 1 analogously to the second method step B from FIG.
- the electrically conductive coating 2 is thus also applied to the area of the inner surface i of the glass pane 1 which is covered with the black print 4 .

- the line-shaped print areas 11 have no electrical conductivity and properties that do not reflect thermal radiation.
- the non-printing areas 10 are coated with the electrically conductive coating 2 . Due to the black print 4 on the inner surface i of the glass pane 1, the pattern 7 is hardly or not at all visually perceptible to an observer.
- a first busbar 8.1 and a second busbar 8.2 are printed onto an edge region of the pattern 7.
- the busbars 8.1, 8.2 are intended to be connected to a voltage source 9.
- the first busbar 8.1 and the second busbar 8.2 are arranged on the pattern 7 in such a way that the current path between the busbars 8.1, 8.2 and through the pattern 7 is as large as possible (as described and shown in FIG. 3, for example).
