Abstract: Disclosed herein are glass forming furnaces and methods of using the same. The glass forming furnaces may include a housing and a bending ring. The housing may define a chamber. The bending ring may include a first inlet port, a first outlet port, and a channel. The bending ring may be located within the chamber. The channel may have a shape that is similar to a shape of a glass article. The channel may define a cavity fluidly connecting the first inlet port and the first outlet port.

Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments of a glass article for a vehicle interior system. The glass article includes a glass sheet with a first side and a second side. A first frame is disposed on the glass sheet on the first side of the glass sheet, and a second frame disposed on the second side of the glass sheet. A mandrel is disposed between the first frame and the second frame. The mandrel has a flexural rigidity of at least 150 Pa·m3 and a density of at most 2.75 g/cm3. The second side of the glass sheet rotates about the mandrel from a first configuration to a second configuration. In the first configuration, the first side forms a first angle with the second side, and in the second configuration. the first side forms a second angle with the second side. The first angle is different from the second angle.

Abstract: A display assembly for an automotive interior comprises a dynamically bendable cover panel having first and second panel portions a flexible panel portion connecting the first and second panel portions, a display positioned adjacent the first and second panel portions, and a frame that supports the cover panel and comprises a first frame portion for supporting the first panel portion, a second frame portion for supporting the second panel portion, and a hinge portion coupling the first frame portion and the second frame portion, the hinge portion configured to induce a curvature having smoothly connected arc segments in the flexible panel portion between the first panel portion and the second panel portion when the second frame portion is articulated relative to the first frame portion from a straight position to a deployed position.

Abstract: A display assembly for an automotive interior includes a cover substrate comprising a first major surface and a second major surface opposite the first major surface; and a support structure. The support structure comprises a plurality of frame portions adhered to separate regions of the second major surface via an adhesive layer to retain the cover substrate in a curved configuration. A shear joint couples two of the plurality of frame portions to one another, the shear joint being configured to maintain a mechanical connection between the two frame portions despite bending stresses being present in the cover substrate, while permitting the two frame portions to move relative to one another along at least a first axis. A gap in the adhesive layer is disposed proximate to the shear joint, the gap decoupling thermally-induced strain distributions of different segments of the adhesive layer from one another via the shear joint.

Abstract: A laminate includes a first glass article having a first thickness, a first annealing point (TA1), and a first softening point (TS1), a second glass article having a second thickness, a second annealing point (TA2), and a second softening point (TS2), and an interlayer disposed between the first glass article and the second glass article. The first thickness is greater than the second thickness, the second annealing point (TA2) is less than or equal to the first annealing point (TA1), and the second softening point (TS2) is greater than the first softening point (TS1).

Abstract: A bendable glass article having a bendable display unit is disclosed. The glass article includes a glass sheet including a first major surface and a second major surface opposite to the first major surface. A hinge mechanism is disposed on the second major surface of the glass sheet. The hinge mechanism divides the glass sheet into a first side and a second side. A bendable display unit is bonded to the second major surface of the glass sheet and disposed between the glass sheet and the hinge mechanism. An adhesive material is disposed on the second major surface of the glass sheet around the display. The first side is bendable about the hinge mechanism relative to the second side, and the bendable display unit is hermetically sealed within the adhesive material.
