Laminated vehicle glass

A laminated vehicle glass has an outer glass, an intermediate layer arrangement, an inner glass, a first color carrier and a second color carrier. The outer glass is at least partly adhesively bonded to the inner glass via the intermediate layer arrangement. The first color carrier is formed as a print with a first printing ink on the inner side of the outer glass. The second color carrier is formed as a print with a printing ink or as a film and has a second color. The second color carrier is provided in at least some regions on the side of the first color carrier that faces away from the outer glass. The first color and second color are different, at least in some regions. The second color is provided in a frame-like region of the laminated vehicle glass.

Embedded wire LED laminate

The price and performance of LED lighting have reached the point where LEDs are displacing more traditional lighting. Even though LED lifetimes are as high as 50,000 hours, they are still being designed as replaceable bulbs rather than being integrated as a permanent part of the lighting assembly. The invention provides for a means of economically producing laminated glass with integrated LED lighting designed to last the life of the vehicle. This is done by embedding the LED die into the plastic layer used to bond the glass layers of a laminate together, forming an embedded wire circuit from thin high tensile strength Tungsten wire to power the LEDs and by utilizing machine tool technology originally developed to produce integrated circuit assemblies such as RFID ID cards, tickets and passports.

Laminated glass

Provided is a laminated glass capable of suppressing multiple images and enhancing the heat shielding properties, and enhancing the uniformity of heat shield properties or color tone between one end side and the other end side of the laminated glass. A laminated glass according to the present invention has one end, and the other end being at the opposite side of the one end and having a thickness larger than a thickness of the one end; the laminated glass includes a first lamination glass member, a second lamination glass member, and an interlayer film arranged between the first lamination glass member and the second lamination glass member; the first lamination glass member has a wedge angle of 0.10 mrad or more; the wedge angle of the first lamination glass member is equal to a wedge angle of the interlayer film or larger than the wedge angle of the interlayer film, and the interlayer film contains a heat shielding substance.

Illuminated laminate with superior aesthetics and brightness

The trend towards increasing the glazed area in automobiles has reduced the potential locations for mounting cabin lighting. This is especially true for vehicles having large panoramic glazing. Attempts to utilize integrated light sources within the glazing have had mixed results. Embedded LEDs in the laminate tend to be too bright for night driving. Edge feed illumination with light dispersing elements on the glass to date have only been able to provide low intensity levels. Both approaches tend to reduce visibility and aesthetics in the off state. The current invention provides a means and a method to produce a laminate which provides bright cabin lighting without compromising the function of the glazing to serve as a window, by creating a light dispersing layer that is substantially invisible when in the off state and very bright in the on state.
