A multilayer colored thermoplastic intermediate layer, includes a first thermoplastic layer with a wedge-shaped cross-section; and a second thermoplastic layer having a substantially constant thickness, wherein the first thermoplastic layer is colorless and the second thermoplastic layer is colored with a dye.

A vehicle window pane having a window pane body assembly having an outer side, which faces a vehicle environment, and an inner side, which faces a vehicle interior, and having a light-conducting layer; and a light source configured to couple its light into the light-conducting layer. An input coupling element coupling light emitted by the light source into the light-conducting layer is disposed on the inner side of the window pane body assembly.

Disclosed herein is a laminated glazing having an electrically connectable layer, comprising: first and second glass substrates; an electrically connectable layer; interlayers rendering the electrically connectable layer positioned between interlayers; and a connection wire having first and second connection ends and a main portion positioned between the first and second connection ends. The first connection end of the connection wire is electrically connected to the electrically connectable layer, whereas the main portion of the connection wire is positioned within the interlayers.

The present invention is a windshield on which an information acquisition device that acquires information from outside of a vehicle by emitting and/or receiving light can be arranged, the windshield including: an outer glass plate; an inner glass plate; an interlayer film arranged between the outer glass plate and the inner glass plate; and a mask layer laminated on at least one of a surface on a vehicle interior side of the outer glass plate and a surface on a vehicle exterior side of the inner glass plate, in which the interlayer film includes a colored shade region, a transparent non-shade region, and a transparent sheet member that is fitted into at least one through hole formed over the shade region and the non-shade region.

A composite pane for a vehicle with an outer pane and an inner pane that are joined to one another via a thermoplastic intermediate layer and the composite pane is provided for separation of a vehicle interior for occupants from an external environment, wherein at least one radar sensor is integrated into the thermoplastic intermediate layer and is designed and arranged such that the radar sensor emits radar beams into the vehicle interior and receives reflected radar beams, and the radar sensor is connected to an evaluation unit for determining movement and/or presence of persons or animals in the vehicle interior.

The present invention pertains to a laminated glass for a vehicle, the laminated glass including a first glass sheet, a second glass sheet and an intermediate film sandwiched between the first glass sheet and the second glass sheet, in which: the total thickness of the first glass sheet, the second glass sheet and the intermediate film is 4.0 mm or more; the first glass sheet is formed of a borosilicate glass containing, in terms of oxide by molar percentage, 1.0% or more of B.sub.2O.sub.3; and when a radio wave (TM wave) with a frequency of 79 [GHz] is made incident at an incident angle of 60° to the first glass sheet, the transmission property S21 is -4.0 [dB] or more.

A laminated glazing unit includes at least one first sheet of glass and one second sheet of glass glued to one another via a first adhesive interlayer, the first sheet of glass being intended to constitute the surface of the laminated glazing unit in contact with the outside atmosphere, in which the laminated glazing unit further includes, between the first sheet of glass and the second sheet of glass, an LOC (Localizer) antenna receiving between 100 and 120 MHz and a GLIDE (Slope) antenna receiving between 320 and 340 MHz, each antenna having dimensions that are sufficiently small not to hamper the vision, even to be practically invisible through the laminated glazing unit.

An insulated glazing unit includes a first laminated pane including two glass sheets, each no more than 2 mm thick, that are bonded to one another by an intermediate adhesive layer, a second structural laminated pane providing the mechanical strength required for the flight conditions of an airplane, in particular resistance to bird strike and control of glazing unit deformation under pressure difference conditions during a flight on either side of the insulated glazing unit, and a gas gap between the first and second laminated panes, the first laminated pane being provided with a heating system.

A glass unit for an illuminated vehicle roof has a glass pane, a plastic film and an outer and an inner polyurethane layer. These components are stacked one on top of the other in a planar manner in the following order: glass pane, inner polyurethane layer, plastic film, outer polyurethane layer. Furthermore, the plastic film has a lower refractive index than the adjacent outer polyurethane layer.
