摘要: The present disclosure relates to a method of providing an edge sealing in the process of providing a vacuum insulated glass (VIG) unit. A first glass sheet (1a) and a second glass sheet (1b) is provided. A glass frit powder material (5) is heated to a softening temperature (Tfrit-powder) to soften the glass frit powder material, and the heated, softened glass frit powder material (5) is applied at the first glass sheet (1a) and/or the second glass sheet (1b). The first glass sheet (1a) and the second glass sheet (1b) are paired before or after applying the heated, softened glass frit powder material. The applied glass frit powder material is re-heated by use of at least one heat source (28, 26), the gap between the paired glass sheets is evacuated in a vacuum chamber (22) and the gap between the paired glass sheets is sealed to provide the VIG unit.

摘要: A compressible pillar is disclosed for the preparation of a vacuum insulated glazing (VIG) unit, having a longitudinal extent in a longitudinal direction when in an uncompressed state, and comprising:a deformable part comprising an open structure, wherein the open structure at least partially collapses under a compression force acting in the longitudinal direction of the compressible pillar, the compression force being of at least one value selected within the range of 60 N to 320 N such as a value of the compression force being selected from the range of 60 N to 140 N, from the range of 140 N to 230 N, or from the range of 230 N to 320 N, wherein the longitudinal extent of the compressible pillar decreases to a compressed longitudinal extent when the compressible pillar is subjected to the compression force, andwherein the compressed longitudinal extent of the compressible pillar increases to an expanded longitudinal extent when the compression force is released, wherein the increase in the longitudinal extent is less than the decrease in the longitudinal extent. Furthermore is disclosed a process of manufacturing a compressible pillar, a method of producing a vacuum insulated glazing unit by the use of such pillars and a vacuum insulated glazing unit comprising such pillars.

摘要: An arrangement for producing vacuum insulated glazing (VIG) unit and an evacuation cup suitable for such use as well as a method therefore is presented so as to provide a more uniform or homogeneous heating of the part of the glass pane containing the evacuation hole and possibly a soldering material arranged around the evacuation hole, in particular for the reason of preventing larger temperature gradients in the glass pane between the part covered by the evacuation cup and the remaining part and for avoiding excessive locale temperatures of the glass pane under the evacuation cup, which may be harmful the durability of the glass pane, in particular when the glass pane is made from tempered glass, where the tempering of the glass may be influenced by excessive temperatures.

摘要: The present disclosure relates to a building aperture cover (1) such as a window or a door. The building aperture cover comprises a frame arrangement (2) and a vacuum insulated glass unit (3), wherein the vacuum insulated glass unit (3) comprises an evacuated gap (4) placed between a first and a second glass sheet (3a, 3b), and wherein a plurality of support structures (5) are arranged in the evacuated gap (4). The vacuum insulated glass unit (3) is arranged in the frame arrangement (2, 6). The building aperture cover (1) comprises one or more elongated flexible sealing gaskets (21, 22) arranged between an outer major surface (S1, S2) of the vacuum insulated glass unit (3) and a frame part (13a, 13c, 23a, 23c) of the frame arrangement (2, 6). The one or more elongated flexible sealing gaskets (21, 22) is arranged to extend substantially parallel to an edge (7, 50a-50d) of the vacuum insulated glass unit (3). One or more of the one or more elongated flexible sealing gaskets (21, 22) comprises an interior, sealed cavity (21a, 22a) configured to comprise a pressurized fluid.

摘要: A method of manufacturing a glass sheet assembly for a vacuum insulated glass unit includes applying an edge seal made of a first material to a perimeter of a first surface of a first glass sheet. The edge seal defining a discontinuity. The method also includes disposing a first surface of a second glass sheet on the edge seal such that a gap is defined between the first surface of the first glass sheet and the first surface of the second glass sheet. The method further includes evacuating the gap through the discontinuity and locally heating the edge seal to at least partially seal the discontinuity.

摘要: A compressible pillar for the preparation of a vacuum insulated glazing (VIG) unit, having a longitudinal extent in the pre-compressed state and including a deformable part having an open structure, which open structure will at least partially collapse when the pillar is subject to a compression force acting in the longitudinal direction of the pillar, the compression force being of at least one value selected within the range of 60 N to 320 N, the pillar will exhibit a partly irreversible deformation causing a reduction in the longitudinal extent of the pillar when the pillar is subjected to the compression force, so that when the compression force is fully released the pillar will exhibit an expansion in the longitudinal direction of the pillar which is less that the reduction in the longitudinal extent of the pillar. Further is shown a process for manufacturing of a compressible pillar, a method of producing a VIG unit as well as a VIG unit.
