Definitions

  • the invention relates to a spacer for insulating glass units, an insulating glass unit, a method for producing an insulating glass unit and its use.
  • Insulating glazing usually contains at least two panes made of glass or polymeric materials. The discs are separated from one another by a gas or vacuum space defined by the spacer.
  • the thermal insulation capacity of insulating glass is significantly higher than that of single glass and can be further increased and improved in triple glazing or with special coatings. For example, coatings containing silver enable reduced transmission of infrared radiation and thus reduce the cooling of a building in winter.
  • the contact points between the spacer and the glass pane are very susceptible to temperature and climate fluctuations.
  • the connection between pane and spacer is created by an adhesive bond made of organic polymer, for example polyisobutylene.
  • the glass itself has a particular effect on the bonded joint.
  • the glass and the spacers have different thermal linear expansion coefficients, i.e. they expand
  • thermal insulation properties of insulating glazing are significantly influenced by the thermal conductivity in the area of the edge seal, in particular the spacer.
  • the high thermal conductivity of the metal causes a thermal bridge to form at the edge of the glass.
  • this thermal bridge leads to heat loss in the edge area of the insulating glazing and, on the other hand, to the formation of condensate on the inner pane in the area of the spacer in the event of high humidity and low outside temperatures.
  • thermally optimized, so-called "warm edge” systems are increasingly being used, in which the spacers are made of materials with lower thermal conductivity, in particular plastics.
  • polymer spacers are preferable to metal spacers.
  • polymeric spacers have several disadvantages. On the one hand, the tightness of the polymeric spacers against moisture and gas loss is not sufficient.
  • a barrier film as a diffusion barrier to the outside of the spacer (see, for example, WO2013/104507A1 and WO2 016/046081 A1).
  • the linear expansion coefficients of plastics are much larger than those of glass.
  • Glass fibers or glass beads for example, can be added to adjust the linear expansion coefficients (see, for example, EP0852280A1).
  • an increased proportion of glass fibers impairs the thermally conductive properties of the spacer, so that precise optimization must be carried out here.
  • Glass fibers and similar fillers also improve the longitudinal rigidity of the spacer.
  • Spacer frames for an insulating glass unit can be made by connecting several pieces of spacer via connectors and then gluing or welding. Each connection point must be carefully sealed. It is therefore advantageous to produce a spacer frame by bending, since in this case a connection point only has to be sealed at one point. In particular, bending without additional heating is for easy machinability desirable.
  • One approach to increasing flexibility without heating is to integrate a metallic strip into the polymer base body. For example, DE19807454A1, ITUA20163892A1 and WO2015/043848A1 describe the integration of a metal reinforcement element exclusively in the side walls. This improves the cold bendability of the hollow profile, but the longitudinal rigidity is low.
  • W09941481A1, W02016150705A1 and EP3241972A1 disclose the arrangement of reinforcement elements in the area of the side walls and partly also in the area of other walls.
  • Longitudinal stiffness refers to longitudinal deflection
  • An improvement in the longitudinal rigidity can be achieved by integrating metallic strips, as just described, or by applying metallic elements externally to the body (see, for example, WO2012055553A1 and WO2019201530).
  • a particular difficulty when applying individual metallic elements externally is the perfect sealing of the edge seal against the ingress of moisture and the long-term stable attachment to the base body.
  • the object of the present invention to provide an improved spacer which does not have the disadvantages mentioned above, as well as to provide an improved insulating glass unit and a simplified method for its production.
  • the improved spacer should have improved longitudinal rigidity with improved thermal conductivity at the same time, so that it effectively seals an edge bond of an insulating glass unit against the ingress of moisture.
  • the spacer according to the invention for insulating glass units comprises at least one polymeric hollow profile with a first side wall, a second side wall arranged parallel thereto, a glazing interior wall, an exterior wall and a cavity.
  • the cavity is enclosed by the side walls, the glazing cavity wall and the outer wall.
  • the polymeric hollow profile extends in the longitudinal direction X.
  • the glazing interior wall extends in the transverse direction Y between the two side walls.
  • the glazing interior wall is arranged essentially perpendicular to the side walls and connects the first side wall to the second side wall.
  • the side walls are the walls of the hollow profile to which the outer panes of the insulating glass unit are attached.
  • the interior glazing wall is the wall of the hollow profile that faces the interior cavity after installation in the finished insulating glass unit.
  • the outer wall is at least partially parallel to the glazing cavity wall and connects the first side wall to the second side wall.
  • the outer wall thus comprises at least one section running parallel to the glazing interior wall. After installation in the finished insulating glass unit, the outer wall points to the outer space between the panes.
  • the spacer further comprises two metallic reinforcing elements which are arranged entirely within the walls of the polymeric hollow section.
  • the metallic reinforcement elements are not glued to the outside of the hollow profile and are also not partially located on the outer surface of the hollow profile. This is particularly advantageous for the stability of the spacer.
  • the metallic reinforcement elements improve the longitudinal rigidity of the spacer.
  • the walls of the polymeric hollow section are the glazing interior wall, the outer wall, the first sidewall and the second sidewall.
  • the first reinforcement member is disposed within the first sidewall, within the glazing interior wall, and optionally also within the outer wall.
  • the second reinforcement member is disposed within the second sidewall, within the glazing interior wall, and optionally also within the outer wall.
  • the first reinforcement element and the second reinforcement element extend continuously in the longitudinal direction X along the entire spacer. Since the reinforcement elements are arranged completely within the walls of the hollow profile, there is a uniform flat surface for bonding with a diffusion barrier, for example in the form of a foil, and a flat surface for arranging the glass panes in the insulating glass unit. this leads to an improved tightness compared to spacers with reinforcement elements that are applied to the outside of a flat profile and lead there to an edge at the transition between the polymer hollow profile and the reinforcement element. Thanks to a single type of material, a uniform bonding surface is obtained on the outside of the spacer, on which a diffusion barrier can be applied, for example in the form of a gas-tight and moisture-tight barrier film.
  • the type of attachment used such as an adhesive, can thus be optimized for the connection between the diffusion barrier and the hollow profile and does not have to be additionally adapted for attachment to a metallic material.
  • the first metal reinforcement member and the second metal reinforcement member are not in contact with each other, that is, they do not touch.
  • the reinforcement in the form of two separate metallic reinforcement elements, the heat insulating properties of the spacer are improved compared to a spacer with a continuous metallic foil/strip. Since the metallic reinforcement elements are not connected to one another, a continuous, thermally conductive metallic connection from the first side wall to the second side wall is prevented, a so-called thermal bridge.
  • a diffusion barrier is applied to the first side wall, the outer wall and the second side wall of the polymeric hollow body.
  • the diffusion barrier seals the inner space between the panes against the ingress of moisture and prevents the loss of a gas contained in the inner space between the panes.
  • the spacer according to the invention offers the possibility of manufacturing a spacer frame by bending at room temperature due to the metallic reinforcing elements.
  • the reinforcement members prevent buckling during flexing in the corners of a spacer frame.
  • the arrangement within the walls is particularly advantageous for the stability of the spacer, since there can be problems with long-term stability if there are metal reinforcement elements that are completely or partially on the outside. Due to the different material properties, the large temperature fluctuations in the edge seal of insulating glazing can lead to a weakening of the connection between the polymer hollow profile and the metal reinforcement elements. This can then Detachment of a barrier film, which affects the tightness of the spacer.
  • the cavity of the spacer according to the invention leads to a weight reduction compared to a solidly formed spacer and is available for accommodating other components, such as a desiccant.
  • the first side wall and the second side wall represent the sides of the spacer on which the outer panes of an insulating glass unit are installed when the spacer is installed.
  • the first side wall and the second side wall are parallel to each other.
  • the outer wall of the hollow profile is the wall opposite the glazing interior wall, which points away from the interior of the insulating glass unit (inner space between the panes) in the direction of the outer space between the panes.
  • the outer wall preferably runs essentially perpendicular to the side walls.
  • a flat outer wall that is perpendicular to the side walls (parallel to the glazing interior wall) over its entire course has the advantage that the sealing surface between the spacer and the side walls is maximized and a simpler shape facilitates the production process.
  • the sections of the outer wall closest to the side walls are inclined at an angle ⁇ (alpha) of 30° to 60° to the outer wall in the direction of the side walls.
  • ⁇ (alpha) is inclined at an angle ⁇ (alpha) of 45°. In this case, the stability of the spacer is further improved.
  • the first metal reinforcing member and the second metal reinforcing member are arranged in these inclined portions of the outer wall. This further improves the longitudinal rigidity of the spacer over an embodiment in which the metal reinforcing members are located only in the glazing cavity wall and sidewalls.
  • the first reinforcement element and the second reinforcement element are each in one piece executed; that is, they extend uninterruptedly from the glazing cavity wall into the first side wall and second side wall, respectively, and then optionally into the outer wall. Accordingly, they are bent at least once at an angle of approximately 90° at the points where they merge from the interior glazing wall into the side wall.
  • This design as a continuous first reinforcement element or second reinforcement element is of particular advantage for the bending of the spacer, since the formation of folds during bending to form a spacer frame is reduced in this way.
  • the first and second reinforcement elements are designed in multiple pieces. This means that they do not extend continuously from the glazing interior wall into the first side wall or into the second side wall and from there optionally into the outer wall.
  • the first reinforcing element can be divided into three separate pieces, which extend in the longitudinal direction (X) continuously along the entire hollow profile: a piece in the glazing interior wall, a piece in the side wall and a piece in the outer wall. This is easier to manufacture in the manufacturing process because the reinforcement elements do not have to be bent.
  • the first reinforcement member and the second reinforcement member each consist of two, three or four separate pieces.
  • the first and the second reinforcement element are angled at least once, preferably angled twice, particularly preferably angled three times.
  • the metallic reinforcement elements are preferably angled at the transitions from one wall section to the next: at the transition between the glazing interior wall and a side wall and/or at the transition from a side wall to the outer wall and/or at the transition from an inclined section of the outer wall to the one running parallel to the glazing interior wall section of the outer wall. This further increases the longitudinal rigidity of the spacer, since the metal reinforcement elements are particularly stable thanks to the angled design. It is thus possible to reduce the wall thickness d of the polymeric hollow profile compared to a shape without angled sections. A reduction in wall thickness in turn leads to improved bendability and lower material costs.
  • the first and second reinforcement elements are symmetrical to one another with respect to the plane of symmetry S.
  • the plane of symmetry S is arranged centrally with respect to the transverse direction Y between the side walls and runs parallel to the side walls in the X and Z directions.
  • Both reinforcement elements preferably have the same structure in terms of thickness and material. This is beneficial for the stability of the spacer during processing.
  • the reinforcement elements can differ in terms of their dimensions and/or materials and/or can be arranged asymmetrically.
  • the first reinforcement element and/or the second reinforcement element comprise a profiled section in the glazing interior wall or at the transition from side wall to glazing interior wall. That is, the reinforcement members do not run linearly parallel to the glazing cavity wall in the transverse direction, but rather have a cross-section with a two-dimensional profile.
  • the reinforcement elements are preferably folded/bent several times in the profiled section, preferably folded/bent twice. This improves the longitudinal rigidity.
  • the first reinforcement element and/or the second reinforcement element in the glazing interior wall extends in the transverse direction over a length l of 0.05 v to 0.30 v, where v is the width of the polymeric hollow profile.
  • the width v of the polymeric hollow profile is the distance between the surfaces of the side walls facing the panes of an insulating glass unit. The width v thus determines the distance between two panes of an insulating glass unit.
  • the length I designates the length over which a reinforcement element extends in the Y-direction, measured between its two ends in the glazing interior wall. For example, if a reinforcement element is curved or corrugated, the stretched length is not determined, only the distance between the two ends measured in the corrugated / curved shape.
  • the area in which the side wall and the glazing interior wall come together is also taken into account, so that the glazing interior wall is taken into account over the entire width v of the hollow profile.
  • the length l is preferably between 0.07 v and 0.25 v, particularly preferably between 0.10 v and 0.20 v.
  • the length I determines the rigidity of the spacer. In the specified areas, the deflection of the spacer is effectively decreased without increasing the heat conduction through the spacer too much.
  • the second metallic reinforcing element is arranged in the glazing interior wall in the transverse direction (X) at a distance i of at least 3 mm from the first metallic reinforcing element. This results in a metal-free area in the glazing interior wall, which contributes to improving the heat-insulating properties of the spacer.
  • the second metal reinforcement element is arranged in the outer wall in the transverse direction (X) at a distance a of at least 3 mm from the first metal reinforcement element. This results in a metal-free area in the outer wall, which contributes to improving the heat-insulating properties of the spacer.
  • the diffusion barrier is applied in such a way that the areas of the two side walls bordering on the interior wall of the glazing are free of a diffusion barrier.
  • a particularly good sealing of the spacer is achieved by attaching it to the entire outer wall up to the side walls.
  • the advantage of the areas on the side walls that remain free of diffusion barriers is, on the one hand, an improvement in the visual appearance when installed. If there is a barrier that borders on the interior glazing wall or is even part of the interior glazing wall, this will be visible in the finished insulating glass unit. This should be avoided for aesthetic reasons.
  • Another advantage of the exposed areas on the sidewalls is that when installed in the finished IG unit, the primary sealant can be applied to extend over the diffusion barrier and over a length of the polymeric sidewall.
  • the height of the area remaining free from the diffusion barrier is preferably between 1 mm and 3 mm.
  • the diffusion barrier is not visible in the finished insulating glass unit and the visual impression is therefore advantageous.
  • the primary sealant can be applied in the finished insulating glazing in such a way that the primary sealant is applied to the plastic of the side walls and the diffusion barrier. In this way, interfacial diffusion at the transition from diffusion barrier to plastic is significantly reduced.
