A plurality of edges (8a-8d) of said rectangular vacuum insulated glass unit (1) overlaps an elongated frame profile arrangement (20a-20d, 70) of said frame (20), and an inwardly directed, major surface (4a, 4b, 15, 35a) of a glass sheet (2a, 35a,) of the vacuum insulated glass unit (1) is bonded to the overlapped elongated 15 frame profile arrangement (20a-20d, 70) by means of a structural adhesive(45a). Said overlapping edges (8a-8d) of the vacuum insulated glass unit (1) are allowed to thermally deflect (DIS4) relative to said elongated frame profiles (20a-20d, 70) in a deflection direction (D1, D2) perpendicular to said frame opening plane (P2) due to a temperature difference (T=T1T2) between the two glass sheets (2a, 2b), and wherein said allowed thermal deflection of the overlapping edges (8a-8d) is allowed to have a varying magnitude along the edge (8a-8d) between the corners (9) where the respective edge (8a-8d) terminates. The present disclosure additionally relates to a vacuum insulated glass unit.

A tightly closed structure of a glass door comprises a doorframe and a first door panel. An upper containing groove is transversely arranged at the top of the doorframe and a lower containing groove is transversely arranged at the bottom of the doorframe. An upper frame strip and a lower frame strip that protruding from the first door panel are respectively arranged on the upper edge and the lower edge at the direction which the first door panel faces to the doorframe. The upper frame strip is embedded in the upper containing groove and the lower frame strip is embedded in the lower containing groove. When the first door panel and the doorframe are fastened, the upper frame strip and the lower frame strip are fastened into the upper containing groove and the lower containing groove at the same time, so that the upper frame strip and the lower frame strip can be hidden and make the first door panel and the doorframe to be tightly closed.

An insulated glass unit (IGU) comprises a first pane of a transparent material and a second pane of a transparent material. The second pane is spaced apart from the first pane to define a cavity therebetween. At least one of a spacer and an array of stand-off members is disposed between the first and second panes to maintain separation therebetween. A first adhesive layer forms at least a portion of a gas-tight connection between the first pane and the second pane. A highly gas-restrictive coating is disposed over the adhesive layer, where the coating is an inorganic layer.

A window assembly may include a vacuum insulated glass unit and a frame assembly. The vacuum insulated glass unit may include first and second glass substrates defining a space therebetween that is at a pressure lower than atmospheric pressure. One of the first and second glass substrates may include a vacuum port extending outward therefrom. The vacuum port may define a passage in communication with the space. The frame assembly supports the glass unit and may include a base member and a glazing member. The base member and the glazing member cooperate to define a slot in which an edge portion of the glass unit is received. The glazing member may include a cavity receiving the vacuum port.

The present disclosure relates to a vacuum insulated glass (VIG) unit frame assembly (10), wherein said vacuum insulated glass unit frame assembly (1) comprises: a frame (20) comprising elongated frame profile arrangements (20a-20d, 70) which frames a vacuum insulated glass unit (1) in a frame opening (21), wherein said vacuum insulated glass unit (1) comprises at least two glass sheets (2a, 2b) separated by a gap (11) between said glass sheets (2a, 2b), wherein a plurality of support structures (12) are distributed in said gap (11), and wherein said gap (11) is sealed by means of a sealing system (1b, 1c) which seals an evacuation hole (1a) arranged in a first (2a) of said glass sheets and extending to the gap (11). A lamination glass sheet (14) is attached to an outer major surface (4a) of said first glass sheet (2a) by means of a lamination layer (16), and wherein said sealing system (1c) extends into a hole (14a) in the lamination glass sheet (14), and the edge (8a-8c) of the vacuum insulated glass unit (1) proximate the hole (14a) in the lamination glass sheet (14), said sealing system (1c) and said hole in the lamination glass sheet (14) into which the sealing system (1c) extends are covered by the frame (20).
