The present disclosure relates to a vacuum insulated glass (VIG) unit frame assembly (10), wherein said vacuum insulated glass unit frame assembly (10) comprises: a rectangular vacuum insulated glass unit (1) comprising 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, and a frame (20) comprising elongated frame profile arrangements (20a-20d, 70) arranged to provide a frame opening (21) extending in a frame opening plane (P2) defined between the elongated frame profile arrangements (20a-20d, 70). 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.

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).
