Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a multiple glazing element for sound protection mounted in a window comprising a first laminated glass pane and at least one second single thickness glass pane, parallel to the first pane and separated from the latter by a layer of gas, the glass sheets of the laminated pane being joined together by at least one plastic film.
  • Such glazing elements are usually intended to be installed in buildings in order to reduce on the inside the perception of outside noises and to provide heat protection.
  • glazing elements For several years, in many countries, the use of heat insulating glazing elements has become widespread. Most frequently, they consist of two panes of the same thickness, usually lying between 2.5 and 4 mm, separated by a 6 to 16 mm layer of gas and bonded on their periphery with the aid of varied mastics and where appropriate metal sections. During the heating period, such glazing elements improve the comfort of premises used for habitation, work and leisure and significantly reduce the heat losses. With respect to the sound insulation, a glazing element comprising a 4 mm pane, a 12 mm gas layer and a 10 mm pane constitutes an appropriate benchmark.
  • glazing elements In order to satisfy certain heat or sound insulation requirements, other types of glazing elements have already been proposed that are multiple and laminated glazing elements.
  • the latter pose problems of weight and volume in relation to the windows into which they are built.
  • such glazing elements are produced with single thickness glass panes that are usually thicker than 8 mm and usually used laminated glass panes that generally consist of glass sheets at least 4 mm thick.
  • This also produces multiple glazing elements that are extremely bulky and heavier than average and in particular heavier than a benchmark insulating glazing element such as is cited hereinabove.
  • the invention therefore aims to supply a glazing element to provide heat and sound protection as effective as a benchmark insulating glazing element or as a multiple and laminated glazing element, without being so heavy.
  • the multiple glazing element according to the invention is characterized in that the two glass sheets of the laminated glass pane each have a thickness lying between 1.5 and 2.5 mm and the single thickness glass pane has a thickness lying between 3 and 5 mm, and that the weight of the glazing element is at least 30% less than the weight of an insulating glazing element which comprises at least two sheets of single thickness glass separated by a layer of gas having the same thickness as that of the multiple glazing element, the difference between the weighted sound reduction index R w of the multiple glazing element and the weighted sound reduction index R w of said insulating glazing element with two sheets of single thickness glass not exceeding 3 dB.
  • the weight of the multiple glazing element is at least 40% less than the weight of the insulating glazing element with two sheets of single thickness glass.
  • the difference between the weighted sound reduction index R w of the multiple glazing element and the weighted sound reduction index R w of said insulating glazing element with two sheets of single thickness glass does not exceed 2 dB, the indices possibly even being equivalent.
  • the layers of gas have a thickness lying between 6 and 20 mm and preferably of 12 mm.
  • the plastic film of the laminated glass pane has a thickness equal to or greater than 0.38 mm.
  • this plastic film is a film giving improved sound insulation properties.
  • a film with improved sound insulation properties is called a film fulfilling the criteria as defined in patents EP-B1-0 100 701 or EP-B1-0 844 075, in particular to provide good sound protection against road or solid-borne noises.
  • the film is selected such that a strip 9 cm long and 3 cm wide, consisting of a laminated glass pane comprising two glass sheets 4 mm thick joined together by a 2 mm layer of this film, has a critical frequency that differs not more than 35% from that of a strip of glass having the same length, the same width and being 4 mm thick.
  • the film insert is adopted when it has a tan ⁇ loss factor greater than 0.6 and a G′ shear modulus less than 2.10 7 N/cm 2 , in a temperature range of between 10 and 60° C., in a frequency range between 50 and 10 000 Hz.
  • the plastic film is associated with at least one other film providing in particular properties additional to those providing the laminating.
  • At least one of the glass sheets of the glazing element comprises at least one functional coating.
  • the glazing element comprises a single thickness glass pane 3 mm thick, and a laminated glass pane with two glass sheets each 2.1 mm thick.
  • the glazing element comprises a single thickness glass pane 4 mm thick, and a laminated glass pane with two glass sheets each 1.6 mm thick.
  • the glazing element comprises a single thickness glass pane 4 mm thick, and a laminated glass pane with two glass sheets each 2.1 mm thick.
  • the glazing elements according to the invention have dimensions of less than 2 m 2 and are intended to be installed in buildings or vehicles, such as motor vehicle glazing elements.
  • FIG. 1 represents a multiple glazing element according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 illustrates the sound reduction index of different glazing elements of the invention and of a benchmark insulating glazing element.
  • the multiple glazing element 1 illustrated in FIG. 1 comprises a laminated glass pane 10 and a single thickness glass pane 20 , these panes being separated by a layer of gas 30 such as a layer of air, and assembled in a sealed manner by means known to those skilled in the art.
  • a layer of gas 30 such as a layer of air
  • the single thickness glass pane 20 has a thickness lying between 3 and 5 mm.
  • the laminated glass pane consists of at least two glass sheets 11 and 12 separated and secured to one another by a sheet of plastic material 13 .
  • Each glass sheet has a thickness lying between 1.5 and 2.5 mm.
  • the sheet 13 is at least 0.38 mm thick.
  • This sheet is for example made of polyvinylbutyral (PVB) with improved sound insulation properties, or of normal PVB which does not have such sound insulation properties.
  • PVB polyvinylbutyral
  • the glazing element may comprise, on one or more of its constituent glass sheets, functional coatings of the thin layer type, for example, for anti-scratch protection, protection against UV rays, glazing element coloration.
  • the plastic film 13 may be associated with at least one other film providing in particular additional properties (colors, anti-UV, light diffusion, etc.).
  • the glazing element of the invention has sound insulation properties equivalent or substantially equivalent, that is to say not exceeding a difference of 1 dB in sound reduction index, to a usual benchmark insulating glazing element which comprises at least two glass sheets separated by a layer of gas identical to the layer of gas 30 , the weight of the glazing element of the invention being at least 30% less than the weight of the benchmark insulating glazing element, preferably at least 40% less. It will be noted that the weight of the insert is considered negligible.
  • Benchmark insulating glazing element No. 0 is a type 4 (12) 10 glazing element, that is to say comprising a 4 mm glass sheet, a 12 mm gas layer and a 10 mm glass sheet.
  • This benchmark glazing element is particularly effective because it has a weighted sound reduction index R w of 38 dB, compared with an insulating glazing element of the same constitution but with 3 mm glass sheets and a gas layer of identical thickness, for which the reduction index R w is only 32 dB.
  • the sound reduction index is measured according to the ISO 140 standard in an installation complying with said standard on glazing element samples with dimensions of 800 mm ⁇ 500 mm, and the weighted index R w subsequently calculated according to the ISO 717 standard.
  • glazing elements of the invention are as follows:
  • the glazing elements of the invention are numbered in this manner, the PVB sheet separating the laminate being 0.38 mm thick.
  • the curves in FIG. 2 reproduce the sound reduction index measurement points from 100 to 5000 Hz in the table above. It will be noted that the glazing elements of the invention have an sound insulation behavior every bit as effective as the benchmark insulating glazing element.
  • Glazing elements of the No. 2 or No. 3 type comprising the single thickness 4 mm glass pane and including the PVB with improved sound insulation properties may be preferred.
  • the thicknesses of the glass of the single thickness glass pane (from 3 to 5 mm) and of the laminated glass pane (from twice 1.5 mm to twice 2.5 mm) are such that the greatest ratio of the extremes equals 1.7 (that is 5/(2 ⁇ 1.5) or (2 ⁇ 2.5)/3). Consequently, the imbalance in weight on one side of the glazing element relative to the other side does not exceed a factor of 2, whereas for example the benchmark glazing element has an imbalance ratio of 2.5 (10/4).
  • assembly of the single thickness glass pane to the laminated glass pane is more convenient; there is no need to position the heavier pane underneath and wait until all the seals providing leaktightness and the mechanical rigidity is finished before carrying out installation.
  • the glazing element is easier to handle.
