A window is provided to include a glass substrate, an adhesive layer on the glass substrate, a polymer layer between the glass substrate and the adhesive layer, the polymer layer having a surface adjacent to the adhesive layer, the surface being hydrophilic at a first temperature and being hydrophobic at a second temperature higher than the first temperature, and a protective layer on the adhesive layer. Thereby, when the protective layer is damaged, only the protective layer may be replaced without replacing a glass substrate.

The present application relates to an object crack repairing tool, which comprises an exhaust film adhered on the surface of an object, a push-pull suction cup capable of being attached on the exhaust film and a crack controller used for controlling the state of a crack, wherein the exhaust film is located at the crack and can seal filling liquid in the crack, the crack controller comprises a detector used for detecting the pressure and a tool head capable of propping against or being connected with the surface of the object, and a detection end of the detector is detachably connected with the tool head. Due to such arrangement of the object crack repairing tool, the degree of force and measure control can be displayed through visual data, and the state of the object crack can be accurately controlled, thereby largely reducing the working load, greatly improving the working efficiency.

A method for repairing aircraft window laminates in which two plies have become separated to create a void, and wherein moisture may have entered through an edge of the window laminate and into the void. The method includes the steps of: placing the window laminate in a vacuum bag and inserting the vacuum bag containing the window laminate into an oven or autoclave for a minimum of ten minutes at a minimum temperature of 120 degrees Fahrenheit to remove the moisture between the plies; removing the vacuum bag and window laminate from the oven, and removing the window from the vacuum bag; forcing a needle on a syringe through the edge of the window laminate in the area of the void; and injecting an adhesive in the syringe into the void to fill the void with the adhesive.

A method for repairing damage to a composite part includes creating an aperture through the composite part and preparing the surfaces surrounding the aperture on both sides of the part; inserting a plurality of resin impregnated fibers through the aperture and spreading the end portions of the plurality of fibers radially against the prepared surfaces on both sides of the part; and maintaining contact of the plurality of fibers with the prepared surfaces while the resin cures.

A glazing panel repair device (1) has coupling means (27) for coupling a pump arrangement (22) to the device to provide holding suction to secure the device to the glazing panel and pressure cycling to a repair zone. In one embodiment, the coupling means is for coupling a single pump to provide holding suction to secure the device to the glazing panel and pressure cycling to a repair zone.

Tue invention relates to a device and a method for repairing a damaged spot (201) of a surface, in particular a glass pane (200) or a windscreen of a motor vehicle. A control unit controls an impingement of pressure profiles, whereby a processing head (101) is secured to the glass pane (200) and a repair means is introduced into the damaged spot (201).
