专利说明:

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of lighting and more particularly to a luminous glazing with diodes arranged on the edge of the glazing unit. It is known to form a luminous glazing by illuminating a glass by the wafer with a light source such as a set of LEDs. The light thus injected is guided by total internal reflection inside this glass thanks to the refractive index contrast with the surrounding materials. This light is then extracted using scattering means. Document W02008 / 059171 proposes, in connection with FIG. 5, an edge-illuminated light panel comprising a plane guide, for example a clear glass of thickness 2 mm, the edge of which is coupled to a light source, a grating LED, possibly in a groove of the wafer, and having on a first main face 11: - a discontinuous porous layer, of thickness of the order of 300nm and index n2 equal to 1.1, which is a layer porous silica gel sol, - a diffusing layer on the porous silica layer and completely covering the first face.
[0002] When the light source is not lit, the panel has a homogeneous and diffusing white appearance and serves for example as a partition, to preserve privacy (privacy effect). When the light source is switched on, the regions without porous silica layer are perceived by contrast, for example decorative strips and / or forming a signage element, a logo, a mark ... In a variant, for example for a wall tile, the low index porous silica layer is continuous, the diffusing layer is opaque, for example a lacquer, the planar guide is a 6mm thick glass tile and a grating network is added on the outer face of the tile.
[0003] This porous layer, thanks to its low density at an optical index significantly lower than that of glass can optically isolate the glass of the lacquer. WO2008 / 059170 proposes for its part to use a porous low index layer as an optical isolator in a diode-illuminated laminated glazing unit. This layer optically isolates the first glass substrate of the second tinted glass substrate. FIG. 11 thus proposes an automotive light roof with a porous silica gel sol layer as porous layer. Finally, the document WO2007077099 proposes in its FIG. 3 a luminous roof incorporating the following sequence guide glass / transparent optical glue / PVB / functional layer / PVB / glass. This acrylic refractive index optical glue of the order of 1.4740 is on the extraclear refractive index guide glass 1.52. This optical adhesive is certainly of lower index than glass but the difference in refractive index is -0.046 which is still too low. Moreover, an optical coupler at the edge of the guide glass is necessary for the angle of incidence greater than the critical angle. The invention proposes a more robust luminous glazing than that of the prior art without penalizing its performance of light extraction efficiency nor complicating its design. In particular, it is even more desirable to control the extraction of light at one or more well defined points, for example well distributed on the surface of the glass. For this purpose, the invention proposes a luminous glazing comprising: a first glass substrate (transparent, clear, extraclear), of mineral glass with a refractive index n1 of less than 1.6 at 550 nm (better in the visible spectrum as a whole ), and even less than 1.55, preferably from 1.5 to 1.53, with first and second main faces and a wafer, and in optical contact with the first main face: - an additional element (decorative and / or functional) which is tinted (and / or diffused (and /) or reflective (mirror, spy mirror); an optical isolator interposed between the first glass substrate and the additional element, an optical isolator with a refractive index of less than n1 at 550 nm, a light source (visible), preferably a set of light-emitting diodes (aligned), on a support such as a printed circuit board, said PCB support, or an extracting optical fiber, optically coupled to the first glass substrate, preferably by the so-called coupling wafer or alternatively optically coupled to one of the main faces (in particular with a housing diodes), the first glass substrate, said guide glass, guiding the light emitted by the source, light extraction means (resulting from the guide) associated with the guide glass, in particular diffusing means on the side of the first main face (on or better under a first lamination interlayer) and / or on the side of (even preferably on) the second main face and / or in the mass of the glass guide, possibly forming a concentrator of the light.
[0004] And the optical isolator according to the invention comprises (better consists of) a fluoropolymer-based film, better fluoropolymer: - of refractive index n2 such that n1-n2 is at least 0.08 to 550 nm ( better in the entire visible spectrum), - with a thickness e2 of at least 600 nm, better micron and even at least 10 μm, - in optical contact with the first main face, via a first intermediate laminating material based on a thermoplastic material (transparent, clear, extraclear), in particular having a thickness of at most 1.3 mm or even submillimetric, of refractive index n3 at 550 nm such that n3-n1 (in absolute value) is less than at 0.05 (better in the visible spectrum as a whole) and even below 0.03, where n3 is possibly less than nl. This low index fluoropolymer film allows a simple implementation, a flexibility of design (by simple cutting of the film) and for any size (large surface included), and especially a better durability than a porous low index layer which tends to lose its porosity over time. The lamination interlayer by its transparency and its uniform adhesion to the guide glass provides a mechanical strength of the film essential for a satisfactory optical contact.
[0005] It is preferred to distinguish in the final product, the low index fluoropolymer film (assembled via the first spacer) a layer or deposition of fluoropolymer, deposited by liquid. A fluoropolymer layer requires the use of special solvents and adhesion can be very problematic.
[0006] For the lamination, it is possible to use a conventional thermal cycle and even better that used for laminated glazing containing plastic films (polyethylene terephthalate, PET etc.). In addition, n1-n2 may be at least greater than 0.1 even at 0.15, even more preferably greater than or equal to 0.2. Preferably, n2 may be less than or equal to 1.45 or even less than or equal to 1.4. The low index film helps to guide a light a little more divergent than in its absence. The refractive index n2 can easily be -1.4 or even -1.34.
[0007] By way of illustration, with an n1-n2 equal to 0.1, an angular acceptance of +/- 35 ° with respect to the input face of the film (in air) is obtained which, with a Lambertian diode, corresponds to at -50% of light guided in addition to an acceptance of +/- 22 ° for n1-n2 equal to 0.046. The optical isolator preferably consists of the low index film.
[0008] In the absence of optical isolator, the optical losses are particularly significant when an additional tinted element has a TL less than 85% especially for a thickness (reference) of 4mm or even 2mm. TL is measured in a conventional way according to EN410 standard with illuminant D65 and a spectrophotometer.
[0009] Even a reflecting element, especially a specular element, in particular a mirror, a silver mirror or a spy mirror, can advantageously be optically isolated for better guidance. Examples of spy mirror layers are described in WO2012 / 035258. Preferably, the guiding glass assembly and the first lamination interlayer have a TL greater than 85% and even at least 90%, especially for a glass thickness of 4 mm or even 2 mm. For simplicity, the low index film extends over the whole of the first lamination interlayer itself extending substantially over the entire guide glass, possibly being set back from the coupling wafer of the guide glass. The fluoropolymer film may be based on, or even one of, the following materials: perfluoroalkoxy PFA, in particular n2 of about 1.3 polyvinylidene fluoride PVDF, in particular n2 of about 1.4, ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene, ECTFE, ethylene tetrafluoroethylene and ETFE, more specifically poly (ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene), in particular n2 of about 1.4, the perfluorinated ethylene propylene copolymer FEP or (fluorinated ethylene propylene) in particular n2 of about 1.3 - PTFE polytetrafluoroethylene in particular n2 of about 1.3, but which is the most difficult to laminate ETFE is preferred because it is the easiest to roll on the first interlayer of Thermoplastic laminating FEP may be preferred for its lower refractive index or lower fuzziness with acceptable rolling.The film blur (ETFE, FFEP) is, for example, at most 2 °. Norton ETFE of the company Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics' fuzziness between 1.5 and 2% refractive index equal to 1.4 or Norton FEP from Saint Gobain Performance Plastics blur between 1.5 and 2% refractive index equal to 1.34. The blur is measured by Hazemeter preferably according to ASTM D 1003. There are polysiloxanes as another low index but their mechanical properties are insufficient. As first laminating interlayer, it is possible to choose in particular a sheet of thermoplastic material made of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) or else of polyurethane (PU) or of polyvinyl butyral (PVB). Such a heat-crosslinkable multi-component or multi-component resin sheet (epoxy) is preferred. , PU) or ultraviolet (epoxy, acrylic resin) for the application of low index film. The first interlayer lamination is preferably submillimetric, its thickness does not affect the lamination quality of the low index film. For each EVA or PVB, a thickness of less than 0.5 mm, in particular of about 0.4 mm (a sheet), is preferred to reduce blurring. The blur of the first laminating interlayer is, for example, at most 2 ° and even at most 1.5 °. We can cite the EVASafe039 from the company Brigdestone. We can mention the PVB RB41 with a blur of less than 1.5% sold by Solutia. The luminous glazing may comprise a transparent zone (central or peripheral), without extraction or additional element, in the transparent zone the blur of the luminous glazing is preferably at most 2.5 °. The TL in the transparent zone is preferably at least 85% and even at least 88%.
[0010] The first lamination interlayer can be clear, extraclear or even neutral in color. Advantageously, in particular for a building application, the first lamination interlayer comprises EVA in contact with the low index film because the Applicant then found better adhesion of the low index film with the EVA. e2 is at least 600 nm for better guidance. A fluoropolymer film is readily available from 50 μm. For a better assembly with the guiding glass, the low index film may have a first main surface facing the inner face and in contact with the first lamination interlayer and a second main surface opposite the second main face, said outer face. the first major surface is treated by adhesion promoter surface treatment, preferably a corona treatment. The second major surface may also preferably be treated by adhesion promoter surface treatment, preferably a corona treatment for improved adhesion with the additional functional or decorative element or other intercalated element. In a first advantageous embodiment: a second polymeric lamination interlayer in adhesive contact with the second main surface which is preferably treated with an adhesion promoter, in particular by corona treatment, optionally dyed in the mass, preferably based on of thermoplastic material identical to the first laminating interlayer, in particular EVA (especially for a building application) - a second glass substrate, made of mineral or organic glass, bonded to the second lamination interlayer by a so-called gluing surface (generally in adhesive contact) unless other element inserted) the second spacer and / or the second glass substrate forming the additional element or carrying the additional element. As a second lamination interlayer, it is possible to choose in particular a thermoplastic sheet of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). polyurethane (PU), polyvinyl butyral (PVB) This type of thermally crosslinkable (epoxy, PU) or ultraviolet (epoxy, acrylic resin) resin sheet is preferably used to cover the low index film. We can mention the products called Saflex® Solutia society, tinted or clear, extraclair. Preferably the nature, and the thickness of the second lamination interlayer are identical to the nature, and the thickness of the first laminating interlayer including EVA (especially for a building application). In this first embodiment, in particular for a vehicle application (roof in particular), the first lamination interlayer comprises a first sheet of PVB in adhesive contact with the inner face and a first sheet of EVA which is in adhesive contact with the low index film (via its first main surface) and the second laminating interlayer comprises a second PVB sheet in adhesive contact with the bonding face and a second EVA sheet which is in adhesive contact with the low index film (via its second main surface).
[0011] Preferably for a vehicle glazing, the guide glass is less than 3mm thick. The second glass substrate, in particular of mineral glass, is less than 3 mm thick, in particular the same. Preferably for a building glazing, the guide glass has a thickness of 4 to 6.5 mm, the second glass substrate, made of mineral glass, is 4 to 6.5 mm thick in particular identical. Between the guide glass and the second glass substrate, in particular mineral, said second interlayer lamination can be transparent especially clear or extraclear, or diffusing (in volume rather than surface texturing) or carrying a diffusing layer for example, an ink, a printed layer, for example local, and forming part or forming the extraction means if the optical isolator (the low index film) is discontinuous. The second glass substrate (flexible, rigid or semi-rigid) of mineral glass may be clear, extraclear or even diffusing or carrying a diffusing element (deposit, film attached) for example on the other side of its bonding face with the second intermediate. For a vehicle glazing, in particular a glazed roof, the second lamination interlayer is tinted and / or the second glass substrate, preferably made of mineral glass, is tinted and the best is that the second lamination interlayer and the second glass substrate are tinted. The thickness of the glass substrates, preferably of mineral glass, is preferably at most 3 mm. Table 1 below gives examples of glass sold by the Applicant. They are suitable for all windows of a vehicle, whether they are soaked or laminated. SGS THERMOCONTROL Absorbing / Venus glass improves thermal comfort by absorbing the energy load in the glass mass. These glasses are divided into two categories: "Vision" (Light Transmission> 70%) and "Privacy" 15 (Light Transmission <70%). Glass type TL (%) TE (%) RE (%) SGS THERMOCONTROL® Venus Green 55 49 27 7 Green tinted high performance // Clear glass 28 16 3 SGS THERMOCONTROL® Venus Green 35 35 22 5 SGS THERMOCONTROL® Venus Gray 10 10 8 1 SGS THERMOCONTROL® Absorbing TSA3 + 71 44 18 Standard green glass 78 53 25 Table 1 The "Vision" lens is suitable for all types of glazing in the vehicle: green / blue / gray and ensures a low energy transmission (TE ). The most popular color for this purpose is green. It was chosen because of its neutral appearance that does not affect the color harmony of a vehicle.
[0012] The "Privacy" glass is a tinted glazing for thermal comfort and privacy. It is a dark green or dark gray stained glass. To ensure privacy, this glazing has light transmittance values that are below 70%, generally around 55% or less. Due to its dark hue, this type of glass also ensures low UV transmission (UV rays can cause skin irritation). In most countries, Venus / Privacy glass is suitable for rear side windows (after pillar B), rear window and roof. The only exception is the United States, where over-glazed glazing is prohibited on light-duty vehicles (except sunroof) and, therefore, they are only used on commercial vehicles (after pillar B). The application on sunroofs is accepted worldwide, regardless of the type of car. Current European legislation imposes, for example, a minimum light transmission of 75% on the windshields and 70% on the front doors. SGS THERMOCONTROL ® Venus consists of dark gray or dark green stained glass. They have all the thermal advantages of the "Vision" type glass (SGS THERMOCONTROL ® Type) with improved sun protection: - lower energy transmission values (compared to all other glass solutions), - its dark color blocks also UV radiation, which is responsible for skin irritation and discoloration of the passenger compartment, - provides greater privacy for the passengers of the vehicle (it is difficult to see through the glass from the outside). The second glass substrate (laminated with the second spacer) may also be made of organic glass, in particular flexible, such as: a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) preferably laminated with PVB or EVA, functional PET (tinted, diffusing) or a polyester optionally with a "hard" layer such as a siloxane, or alternatively a thermosetting PU laminated with a second thermoplastic PU interlayer as described in document EP132198.
[0013] The second glass substrate may also be made of organic glass (rigid, semi-rigid) such as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) - preferably with PU laminate interlayer, a polycarbonate (PC) - preferably with PVB interlayer.
[0014] The face opposite to the first face (of lamination if appropriate) or the bonding face may be free, or less accessible and / or used for assembly. In this first laminated glazing mode, the bonding face of the second substrate, preferably made of mineral glass, may be coated with a decorative and / or masking layer, in particular an enamel and / or a paint (lacquer) or a layer. reflective, peripheral and optical coupling side (frame), or distributed and even substantially covering the bonding face. And / or the face opposite to the bonding face of the second substrate, preferably mineral glass, may be coated with a decorative layer and / or masking including an enamel and / or a paint (lacquer) or a reflective layer , peripheral and optical coupling side (frame), or distributed and even substantially covering the face opposite to the bonding face. Under the paint (lacquer), there may be a transparent adhesion primer preferably. Alternatively, the following sequence may be used: guide glass / first interlayer for lamination / low index film / second lamination interlayer (PVB) with paint or decor ink / second glass substrate (transparent, tinted). A laminated glazing pane with a possible adhesion primer 25 is described in WO2009 / 081077. In order to optimize the adhesion between the paint and a possible interlay sheet of polymeric lamination, the paint is preferably subjected to the action of a plasma, in particular by a treatment of the corona discharge type, before heat treatment. For the same purpose, it is also possible to deposit on the paint silanes, for example by spraying or scouring. These treatments make it possible to use paints, especially lacquers, whose adhesion with the polymer interlayer sheets is naturally weak. They nevertheless generate an additional cost and are therefore not preferred. The transparency of the low-index film can in particular make it possible to preserve the vision through the luminous glazing or else the hue conferred by the tinted additional element. The transparency of the low index film makes it possible in particular to preserve the vision of a decorative element, for example a paint (especially a lacquer), especially on the second glass substrate (and / or an enamel on the second glass substrate), enamel or paint (lacquer) distributed on a surface of the second glass substrate (bonding face or opposite face), substantially covering this surface or in discrete patterns or edge (side and / or longitudinal bands, frame).
[0015] Transparency is taken here in the broad sense, implying a vision through, the low index film being able to be colorless or tinted, neutral color or bright color. The low index film may even be adjusted according to the tint of the additional colored element, in particular the second insulated glass substrate and / or the second lamination interlayer itself tinted for additional color. The low index film may for example be adjusted according to the color of the paint and / or enamel used for decorative purposes, for a complement of color. The paint or enamel is generally opaque but may alternatively allow more light to pass, for example applied in a thin layer and / or by adjusting the level of charges in the binder. The low index film can be tinted by nature (of the matrix) and / or for example by adding coloring additives. For simplicity, a low colorless index film may be preferred. In this first embodiment, the bonding face of the second substrate, preferably made of mineral glass, or the opposite face may comprise a diffusing layer (deposit, in particular an attached plastic element, especially bonded with an optical adhesive) and / or said second substrate is diffusing and / or a diffusing element is between the low index film and the second laminating interlayer.
[0016] We can have the following sequence: first lamination interlayer / low index film / second lamination interlayer (PVB) with paint or diffusing ink / second glass substrate (transparent or tinted). In another embodiment, the first glass mineral glass substrate is replaced by a first organic glass substrate, preferably PMMA or PC, and preferably the light glazing further comprises: a second polymeric lamination interlayer in adhesive contact with the second main surface, preferably treated with an adhesion promoter, in particular by corona treatment, - a second glass substrate, preferably made of mineral glass or organic glass, bonded to the second laminating interlayer by a so-called bonding face, the second interlayer and / or the second glass substrate forming the additional element or carrying the additional element.
[0017] Furthermore, the low index film (above the spacer) according to the invention may be continuous occupy substantially entirely the inner face (at a margin including close). Preferably, the first lamination interlayer and the low index film are set back from the so-called coupling portion of the guide glass, leaving a free peripheral zone (or band). The guidance in this area is as high as possible, but high-angle rays can still be extracted forming hot spots if the second face is visible (without mounting profile glazing etc.). Also in addition, the support (preferably opaque) of light source (in particular a printed circuit board called PCB which is support of the diodes), and / or a carrier section of the PCB support, can be arranged opposite this peripheral zone and preferably is not in optical contact with the guide glass. The PCB support (and / or the preferably metallic carrier profile) serves as a screen. Preferably, the first lamination interlayer, the low index film and the second lamination interlayer are set back from the said coupling portion of the guide glass, in a groove between the first face and the bonding face of the second glass substrate, preferably mineral. The guidance in this area is as high as possible, but high-angle rays can still be extracted forming hot spots. Also in addition, the support (preferably opaque) of light source (in particular a printed circuit board called PCB which is support of the diodes), and / or a carrier section of the source support (PCB support), can exceed in this groove and preferably is not in optical contact with the first face. The PCB support (and / or the preferably metallic carrier profile) serves as a screen.
[0018] At a minimum, the fluoropolymer film may extend only between the coupling wafer and the edge (closest to the guide wafer) of the light extraction means. For simplicity it covers the internal face possibly being set back from the coupling wafer as previously described. Furthermore, the laminated glazing may have the following configuration: the guide glass portion has a marginal recess passing through the thickness where the source is housed, or the second substrate is protruding from the coupling portion of the first sheet, creating a lateral recess of the glazing. The guide glass preferably comprises a peripheral recess (local, on a fraction of the length of the first, lateral or longitudinal slice) and / or the second glass substrate protrudes from the guide slice and the light source (preferably together of diodes) on a support, such as a printed circuit board called PCB support (of diodes), in the peripheral recess or the protruding zone, does not exceed the edge of the second glass substrate and even the plane of the second face. And preferably the source support (PCB) is fixed (directly or via a base) to the bonding face in the protruding zone or the peripheral recess and / or in a groove between the first face and the bonding face, particularly if source (diodes) side emission, and / or still attached to the coupling wafer by an optical adhesive or a transparent double-sided adhesive. In particular for a building application, the second glass substrate may protrude from the guide edge by shifting with the first glass substrate, being of identical or larger size to keep the opposite edges aligned (to within 1 mm for example). In particular for a vehicle application (bright glass roof), the guide lens comprises a peripheral recess, local. A metal PCB support may be preferred for thermal dissipation or it may be fixed from the back to a metal base preferably not protruding from the guide wafer and even from the plane of the second face. This base can be a bar, section L or U. The wafer of the second substrate can be free or linked to a polymeric encapsulation or against a mounting profile of the light glazing (metal, wood, plastic) by example of section L or U on the thickness of the glazing light. Alternatively or cumulatively to the support (PCB) of the source serving to mask the hot spots as mentioned above, the luminous glazing according to the invention in the form of a laminated glazing unit with the second laminating interlayer and the second glass substrate, may comprise an element masking the light source and / or the hot spots (in particular via the gluing face, close to the injection zone), in a vehicle application, and / or masking the glazing attachment to the body of the vehicle by the second face-, the masking element can be - preferably a masking layer which is a sufficiently opaque enamel, on the periphery of the bonding face and / or the face opposite to the bonding face , and / or an attached face facing the first face and possibly on the periphery of the second face or a reflective layer on the periphery of the bonding face and / or the opposite face e to the bonding face or an attached face facing the first face, - or, in particular in vehicle application, a polymeric encapsulation (sufficiently opaque black), second side side and / or face side opposite to the face of bonding and possibly on the periphery of the second face, this masking element may extend more than the support (PCB) source, and be between the bonding face and the second interlayer lamination. This element may correspond to said additional element.
[0019] The low index film may be discontinuous and the light extraction means are a lacquer or a paint on the first interlayer of lamination. In one configuration, the low index film (on the lamination interlayer) partially covers the guide glass, thereby presenting a first so-called optical isolation zone, the first optical isolation zone preferably closer to the light source. than the extraction means. An area, called the light zone (extraction), adjacent and preferably contiguous to the first optical isolation zone comprises the extraction means, in particular formed by a diffusing layer. These extraction means (especially local) are for example: - directly on the inner face, - or directly on the interlayer (or a second interlayer overcoat), first or second surface, (including local), for example a printed PVB - or directly on the bonding face, - or a scattering film inserted (plastic etc) especially under the bonding face or the opposite face. The diffusing layer may be a paint, especially a lacquer, or an enamel, preferably on the bonding surface, at least in the light zone.
[0020] Optionally, the low index film is discontinuous and thus has a second so-called optical isolation zone, the extraction light zone being between the first and the second optical isolation zone in particular contiguous with the first and the second optical isolation zone. The luminous glazing may comprise an electrically controllable system with variable optical properties, in particular liquid crystal, optical valve, electrochromic, thermochromic, underneath the optical isolator or preferably above the optical isolator. In a laminated glazing unit according to the invention, one can have the following system: said first lamination interlayer / low index film / second lamination interlayer / support (plastic film) / first electrode / electrically controllable optical system / second electrode / support (film plastic) / third interlayer lamination / second glass substrate. As a support can be chosen a poly (ethylene terephthalate) said PET. As electrically controllable optical system may be mentioned: liquid crystals, optical valve ("SPD" in English), electrochromic, thermochromic. The liquid crystals described in the applications EP964288, EP0823653A1, EP0825478A1, EP0964288A3 and EP1405131 may be mentioned. The luminous area (s) may be: - with decorative function, ambient light (in one or more distinct and / or separate patterns of shape and / or color, and / or - provide architectural lighting, - provide illumination directional (light concentrator extraction means), - with one or more signaling patterns and / or commercial purposes (LOGO etc.) of distinct shape and / or color, joined or spaced apart. For the extraction of light, diffusion means are used, formed either by a surface treatment of sand-blasting type glass, acid attack, enamel or diffusing paste deposit, or by a mass treatment of etching-type glass. laser. The diffusing extraction means are in the form of a surface texturing, in particular of the internal or external face, or of a diffusing layer, in particular an enamel, a paint, an ink (white preferably or otherwise depending on the zones needs) or a diffusing sticker (removable). The extraction means form a light concentrator (directed light emission) for example: reflecting means facing extraction means for reflecting the extracted rays in a given direction as described in FR2989176, lens as described in document W02005 / 018283, - first beveled glass substrate in particular with an acute angle less than or equal to 45 °, described in FR2987043 (particularly example in Figure 2) with reflector which is a reflective surface and / or polished. The extraction means (all or part) may be on the outer face opposite to the inner face rather than under the first spacer or under the low index film occupying substantially the entire inner face.
[0021] According to one characteristic, a diffusing layer is white, especially a paint or an enamel, preferably having a clarity L * of at least 50, is part or forms the extraction means opposite the laminating interlayer or on the side of the first lamination interlayer. The color is defined in known manner by the parameters L *, a * and b * is measured by a spectrocolorimeter. In the case of a diffusing layer on the laminating side, the first interlayer may cover the diffusing layer or even a frosted area. The low index film can be arranged (cut) only adjacent and even contiguous to the diffusing layer (on both sides).
[0022] The diffusing layer, which is on the laminating side, is preferably with a diffuse reflection factor greater than or equal to 50% or even 80%. The diffusing layer which is opposite to the lamination, preferably has a diffuse transmission factor of greater than or equal to 50% or even 80%.
[0023] The diffusing layer may be a set of diffusing patterns qualified as a grating diffusing particularly for a large desired size area as uniform as possible. This diffusing network may be formed of diffusing patterns for example of width (average) of 0.2mm to 5mm. To form this network we can texture a layer.
[0024] In the light zone or zones (on the opposite side to the face with extraction means such as enamel and / or on the side of the face with extraction means such as enamel), the lighting may be of the type lambertian and non-directional, along an axis of propagation of light. Thus, the luminance has the advantage of being substantially equal whatever the angle of observation.
[0025] Preferably, the guide glass coated with the extraction means, in particular enamel, has a light transmission of less than 45% or even 40% or even 35%. The extraction means, in particular enamel, extend, for example over the entire face of the glass or guide substrate, discontinuously or according to geometric shapes sparse curved lines and / or straight. The enamel is for example fractal geometry. According to another characteristic, the extraction means extend discontinuously and delimits dark areas including patterns of geometric shapes sparse curved lines and / or straight lines, especially of length (greater dimension) at least centimeter. The light zone can cover a part of the surface, thus leaving at least a first dark area, that is to say non-luminous area can cover a part of the surface, thus leaving at least a first zone, dark area that is chosen from a transparent zone (clear of glass ...) or a decorative zone 30 by an opaque and / or colored coating, or else a reflecting zone, especially a mirror, for example formed by a silvering covered by a protective paint.
[0026] The mirror is, for example, the SGG Miralite product from SAINT-GOBAIN GLASS, with an oxidation protection paint, the silvering of the mirror being disposed: on the same face as the extraction means (enamel, paint ) or on an opposite side, - on the lamination side. In a variant, the mirror is based on chromium, such as the SGG Mirastar product from SAINT-GOBAIN GLASS, the chromium being - on the same face as the extraction means (enamel, paint) or on an opposite face - of the side of the lamination or on the outer or outer face. The maximum width, width corresponding to the smallest surface dimension of this light zone (of any possible shape), may preferably be less than 200 mm or even less than or equal to 100 mm, in particular to leave a large dark area surface. The width is constant or variable. The light zone may be a peripheral zone, in particular along at least one edge, for example according to at least one strip or a drawing, while the dark zone is more central (and further away from the light source). The diffusing layer, in particular enamel, may be a continuous layer on the surface, with a width of less than 200 mm, even 100 mm and even more preferentially less than or equal to 50 mm, or be discontinuous and formed of a set of fine patterns, width (minimum dimension of the pattern) less than 200 mm, or even 100 mm and even more preferably less than or equal to 50 mm. The extraction patterns, diffusing are for example geometric: rectilinear or curved strip, concentric circles, L. etc. The patterns are identical or distinct, parallel to each other or not, with a distance between them identical or not. In a preferred embodiment, the diffusing layer (all or part of the extraction means) consists of particles agglomerated in a binder, said particles having a mean diameter of between 0.3 and 2 microns, said binder being in a proportion between 10 and 40% by volume and the particles forming aggregates whose size is between 0.5 and 5 microns. This preferred diffusing layer is particularly described in the application W00190787. The particles may be chosen from semi-transparent particles and preferably inorganic particles such as oxides, nitrides, carbides. The particles will preferably be chosen from oxides of silica, alumina, zirconia, titanium, cerium, or a mixture of at least two of these oxides. For the extraction of light, diffusion means are used, formed either by a superficial treatment of the sandblasting-type glass sheet, acid etching, enamel or diffusing paste deposit, or by treatment in the mass of the glass. Laser engraving type. The diffusing layer (all or part of the extraction means) may be composed of elements containing particles and a binder, the binder making it possible to agglomerate the particles together. The particles may be metallic or metal oxides, the particle size may be between 50 nm and 1 μm, preferably the binder may be inorganic for heat resistance. The diffusing layer (all or part of the extraction means) may be composed of elements containing particles and a binder, the binder making it possible to agglomerate the particles together. The particles may be metallic or metal oxides, the particle size may be between 50 nm and 1 μm, preferably the binder may be inorganic for heat resistance. In a preferred embodiment, the diffusing layer (all or part of the extraction means) consists of particles agglomerated in a binder, said particles having a mean diameter of between 0.3 and 2 microns, said binder being in a proportion between 10 and 40% by volume and the particles forming aggregates whose size is between 0.5 and 5 microns. This preferred diffusing layer is particularly described in the application W00190787. The particles may be chosen from semitransparent particles and preferably mineral particles such as oxides, nitrides and carbides. The particles will preferably be chosen from oxides of silica, alumina, zirconia, titanium, cerium, or a mixture of at least two of these oxides. For example, a diffusing mineral layer (all or part of the extraction means) of about 10 μm is chosen. Advantageously, a luminous zone is a solid enamel (thus a solid zone as opposed to a network of dot-like points like millimeter points) in particular of length (greater dimension) at least centimeter. According to one characteristic, the extraction enamel has the following composition: between 20 and 60% by weight of SiO 2, 10 to 45% by weight of refractory pigments, in particular of TiO 2, in particular of micron size - preferably not more 20% by weight of alumina and / or zinc oxide.
[0027] The TiO2 pigments make the enamel sufficiently opaque (to visualize the enamel in the off state) and lower the TL. Examples of enamel extraction composition may be enamel under the name Ferro 194011 marketed by the company FERRO, the reference AF5000 marketed by the company JM, the reference W30-244-1 marketed by Pemco are very white with a gloss greater than 20 and have a low light transmission, less than 40%. It may be desirable for the light to be visible only on the side of the outer face. To do this we can: - use a reflector or an opaque element on the extractions means on the laminating side, (diffusing layer in particular), - use a reflector or an opaque element on the laminating side facing the extraction means on the outer face - sufficiently increase the thickness of the diffusing layer (laminating side) A diffusing enamel / masking enamel system can be used according to the one-way vision method with discrete enamel patterns described in WO2012 / 172269 or still EP1549498. As a light source it is possible to choose an extracting optical fiber, with a lateral emitting face (coupled to a primary light source which is typically a diode). For example, 3M optical fiber, referred to as 3M TM Precision Lighting Elements, is used. Diodes are preferred. The diodes may be (pre) encapsulated, that is to say comprising a semiconductor chip and an envelope, for example epoxy resin or PMMA, encapsulating the chip and whose functions are multiple: diffusing element or focus, wavelength conversion. The envelope is common or individual. The diodes may preferably be single semiconductor chips, for example having a size of the order of one hundred pm or one millimeter. Their width is preferably less than the thickness of the first glass substrate, especially if not laminated on the second side. The diodes may optionally include a protective envelope (temporary or otherwise) to protect the chip during handling or to improve compatibility between the materials of the chip and other materials. The diode may be chosen in particular from at least one of the following light-emitting diodes: a side-emitting diode, that is to say parallel to the (faces of) electrical contacts, with a lateral emitter face with respect to the support a diode whose main direction of emission is perpendicular or oblique with respect to the emitting face of the chip. The emission pattern of a light source can be lambertian. Preferably the distance between the chips and the first sheet is less than or equal to 2 mm and even 1 mm. Advantageously, the diodes are arranged to inject light through the edge of the guide glass along two parallel opposite sides. The light extracted from the extraction pattern may flash, change color by means of control of the light source, for example a set of white emitting diodes or red, green, blue and preferably also white The light extraction means may be enamel, lacquer or paint on the first major surface and under the first lamination interlayer. The light extraction means may be in the form of a texturing of the guide glass on the outer face which is preferably a free surface, or a diffusing layer, in particular an enamel, a lacquer or a paint. Most LEDs on the market have a Lambertian emission. The more the angular acceptance constraints are severe and the more the addition of a collimation optics to the LEDs is necessary (expensive, injection problem and mixing with RGB LEDs, ...) in the absence of use of low index film. But these injection problems are more critical than the guide glass is thin (typically when the thickness of the first glass substrate is <5mm). The guide glass used may be any type of flat glass, (possibly curved by the bending processes known to those skilled in the art, when it comes to coating curved surfaces). It may be monolithic glasses, that is to say composed of a single sheet of mineral glass, which may be produced by the "float" method making it possible to obtain a perfectly flat and smooth sheet, or by means of drawing or rolling processes. Examples of glass materials include float glass (or float glass) of conventional soda-lime composition, optionally hardened or tempered thermally or chemically, an aluminum or sodium borosilicate or any other composition. The glass of the guide glass can be clear, extra-clear, very low in iron oxide (s). These are, for example, glasses marketed in the "DIAMANT" range by SAINT-GOBAIN GLASS. The substrate of the guide glass may be a glazing made of silicosodocalcic glass, in particular extraclear glass, may have: a transmission of the light radiation greater than or equal to 91 ° to even greater than or equal to 92% or even 93% or 94% at 550 nm or preferably over the entire visible range, and / or a reflection of the light radiation less than or equal to 7%, or even less than or equal to 4%, at 550 nm or preferably over the entire visible range. The optically coupled slice can be shaped, automotive shaping (rounded), straight. The guide glass may have been heat-treated, at a temperature greater than or equal to 450 ° C., preferably greater than or equal to 600 ° C., in particular even tempered glass, hardened bending.
[0028] The thickness of the first glass substrate is preferably between 2 and 19 mm, preferably between 4 and 10 mm, more particularly between 5 and 9 mm. By way of example, the luminous glazing is intended for: - a building glazing, such as an illuminating facade, an illuminating window, a ceiling lamp, a floor slab or lighting wall, an illuminated glazed door, an illuminating partition, a ceiling illuminating, a stair step, a railing, a railing, a counter, - a transport vehicle, such as an illuminated side window or an illuminated glass roof or a window or a rear window, an illuminated glass door, in particular transport of individuals, such as automobile, truck, or in common, such as train, subway, tramway, bus or water or air vehicle (plane), - street or urban lighting, - a window of street furniture, such as an illuminated glass part of a bus shelter, a railing, a display case, a display case, a shelf, a greenhouse, - an interior furnishing glazing, such as an illuminating bathroom wall, an illuminating mirror, a part vi illuminating light of a piece of furniture (preferably single glazing), - a glazed part, in particular door, glass shelf, lid of refrigerated domestic or professional equipment. The luminous glazing (including laminated with mineral or organic glass), can be part of a double or triple glazing, such as a building or vehicle window (train etc) or a building door or vehicle (train etc). In this case, it is preferable to leave a transparent zone on most of the luminous glazing, in particular a central zone with a possible (local) extraction pattern. It is also preferred to place the light glazing on the interior side of the building or the vehicle. The luminous glazing (in particular laminated with mineral or organic glass) can even be part of a double glazing of a refrigerated equipment door, in particular vertical. In this case, it is preferable to leave a transparent zone on most of the luminous glazing with a possible (local) extraction pattern. The bright glazing may be the outermost of the equipment.
[0029] The luminous glazing can be in particular a particularly laminated partition, door (framed or not, in particular laminated), window, in particular in double or triple glazing, glazing for furniture, ceiling, railing, wall panel, step, mirror incorporating a luminous glazing according to the invention.
[0030] The partition can be fixed or in the form of sliding panels, for example mounted on rails. The door can be an indoor or outdoor door or a shower door. For a partition wall, shelf, shop window or company premises, the geometric shape of the combination of enamel and transparent glass surface will advantageously correspond to the logo of the company. The luminous glazing according to the invention may be intended to equip any vehicle: preferably mobile or fixed roof of a land vehicle, in particular automobile, commercial vehicle, truck, train, with a first sheet possibly curved, in particular a laminated glazing, - side window of a land vehicle, in particular an automobile, a commercial vehicle, a truck, a train, in particular with the functional element which is a part for holding a window lifter system or with the hub cap, - windshield a land vehicle, in particular an automobile, a utility vehicle, a truck or a train, in particular with the light zone or zones (forming a "HUD" sign, for example) in the enamel border or close to it, rear window in particular in the enamel border or nearby, - porthole, windshield of an overhead vehicle, - window panes, roof, aquatic vehicle, boat, submarine - glazing in a train, a bus fitted in particular double or triple glazing.
[0031] In a vehicle, the radiation extraction / conversion (as well as the type and / or the position and / or the number of the diodes) is adjusted for: - ambient lighting, reading, especially visible inside of the vehicle, - a luminous signal, in particular visible on the outside: - by activation of remote control: detection of the vehicle in a parking lot or other, indicator of (un) locking of doors, or - safety signaling, for example as stop lights on the rear, - a substantially uniform illumination over the entire extraction surface (one or more extraction zones, common or separate function). The light can be: - continuous and / or intermittently, - monochromatic and / or plurichromatic. Visible inside the vehicle, it can have a function of night lighting or display information of any kind, such as drawing, logo, alphanumeric signage or other signs.
[0032] It is possible to make a single extraction face (internal to the vehicle preferably). The details and advantageous features of the invention will now become apparent from the following nonlimiting examples, with the aid of FIGS. 1 to 10 which are schematic and partial views in section of light glazings with an optical isolator in several embodiments of the invention. invention. The elements are not to scale. EXAMPLES OF LUMINOUS GLAZING FIG. 1 shows a partial sectional view of a light glazing unit 100 with an optical isolator in a first embodiment comprising: a first glass substrate 1, called guide glass, which is a glazing here of rectangular shape plan or alternatively curved, clear or extraclear silicosodocalcic glass, (preferably about 6mm for example for the building or at most 3mm for the automobile), of refractive index n1 of about 1.5 to 550nm , of TL of at least 90%, with a first main face 11 called inner face and a second main face 12 called outer face and a first edge 13, - a light source 4, here a set of light emitting diodes 4 on a printed circuit board said PCB support 41, optically coupled to the said guide glass portion 13, the guiding glass guiding the light emitted by the diodes preferably spaced apart (spaced or glued) by at most 2mm the guide wafer, diodes preferably centered on the wafer and of width less than the thickness of the glass 1, - light extraction means 6 associated with the guide glass here on the inner face 11, which are a diffusing layer preferably white, preferably having a clarity L * of at least 50, preferably a diffusing enamel, or alternatively a frosted surface of the second face or an optical concentrator, extraction means here in several diffusing patterns, forming a plurality of light areas or a uniform light zone if sufficiently close) or alternatively a solid light zone for example unique and central. The inner face 11 further comprises successively: a first lamination interlayer 7 made of thermoplastic material, preferably EVA or even PVB or PU, or alternatively PVB surmounted by a generally submillimetric EVA, transparent, for example clear, of internal surface 71 in adhesive contact. with the inner face 11 and an outer surface 72, - a low index film 2, preferably ETFE or even FEP and having a thickness of at least 50 μm having corona-treated principal faces 21, 22 in adhesive contact with the EVA 7 preferably (EVA alone or EVA on PVB), - a second lamination interlayer 7 'of thermoplastic material, preferably EVA or even PVB, or PU, or alternatively PVB surmounted by a generally submillimetric EVA, transparent for example clear, identical to the first interlayer lamination, preferably EVA in adhesive contact with the low-index film (EVA alone or EVA on PVB) - a second glass substrate 1 ', made of mineral glass, for example i identical to the guiding glass with a main bonding face 11 'on the second lamination intermediate side 7' and an opposite face 12 '. The face opposite to the bonding face 11 'carries directly (or via a bonding primer) a first decorative coating and / or masking 5, for example a continuous layer of paint and preferably a lacquer, colored (white, black preferably) of color distinct from the extraction means 6, or arranged in disjoint or discrete colored discrete patterns in a color or distinct colors, for example manufactured by masking or screen printing. In a variant, the gluing face 11 'carries this decoration. The guiding glass 1 can be quenched, soaked bomb, as well as the second glass substrate. Extraction enamel 6 has, for example, the following composition: between 20 and 60% by weight of SiO 2, 10 to 45% by weight of refractory pigments, including TiO 2, in particular of micron size - preferably not more than 20% by weight of alumina and / or zinc oxide. The TiO2 pigments make the enamel sufficiently opaque to visualize the enamel in the off state) and lower the TL Examples of enamel composition may be the enamel under the name Ferro 194011 marketed by the company FERRO, the reference AF5000 sold by the company JM, the reference W30-244-1 marketed by Pemco.
[0033] The enamel is here screen printed or alternatively printed. The extraction means may form a plurality of light patterns, for example broad peripheral bands and / or more discrete patterns including geometric. The luminous motifs form a decoration, a sign, a LOGO, a mark. The illumination may be continuous or flashing and / or of variable color. Other diodes can be added to the opposite edge of the wafer 13 (not shown here), particularly in the case of a large glazing unit and / or with several spaced centimeter units (with a large extraction area). In order to see through the guide glass part of the continuous lacquer base (or enamel or other paint) it may be desired that the light zone is not distributed substantially over the entire glazing (thus avoiding the extraction on the entire inner face carrying means of extraction). The face 12 'opposite to the bonding face 11' may be a free surface of the light glazing, is visible or even accessible (to the touch). After installation of the luminous glazing, this free surface may be facing a glazed wall of a building (wall, partition, ceiling, roof) or even of a vehicle. The light glazing 100 forms for example to form a partition, a ceiling, a floor, a wall decorative panel. The second substrate 1 'coated with lacquer 5 may be the Planilaque Evolution or Decolaque product of the Applicant, with a wide range of available colors (hot, cold metallized) .A paint formulation may be deposited according to the curtain process. The solvent is xylene or alternatively aqueous. The lacquer after drying comprises, for example, the following ingredients: a binder in the form of a polyurethane resin obtained by crosslinking, by a non-aromatic isocyanate, of hydroxylated acrylic resins resulting from the polymerization of an acrylic styrene; mineral materials (pigments and fillers); ) up to 55% by mass.
[0034] One can even insert an electrically controllable system with variable optical properties is the following sequence on the low index film: second PVB or EVA or PVB + EVA / first transparent electrode support such as PET / first transparent electrode including ITO or multilayer silver / liquid crystal layer / second transparent electrode including ITO or silver multilayer / second transparent electrode support such as PET / third PVB or EVA or PVB + EVA. In the off state, the system is opaque and in the state the system is transparent and reveals the first coating 5 in decorative lacquer.
[0035] Figure 2 shows a partial sectional view of a light glazing 200 with optical isolator in a second embodiment. Only differences from the first mode are described. The luminous glazing 200 differs as follows.
[0036] The face 12 'opposite to the bonding face 11' comprises a peripheral opaque enamel 5 'for example masking enamel (black, dark) or decor. The extraction means 6 form a single light zone, for example a band. Alternatively this enamel is on the bonding surface or the second spacer is printed with a masking layer. Figure 3 shows a partial sectional view of a light pane 300 with optical isolator in a third embodiment. Only differences from the first mode are described. The bright glazing 300 differs as follows. The low index film 2 is discontinuous (forming a first and second optical isolation zone 24 and 25 separated by a discontinuity 23 here central), leaving a central zone here where the first laminating interlayer 7 is directly in contact with the second spacer lamination 7 'then preferably clear, extraclair. The discontinuity 23 may be surrounded by the optical isolator 7 (in a closed pattern). We can have a plurality of discontinuities in order. During manufacture, it is possible to add a thickness of lamination interlayer material in the discontinuity (in addition to sheet (s) for the first interlayer and sheet (s) for the second interlayer) to facilitate the formation of the zone. full of lamination. The extraction means 6 are formed by the white paint or lacquer 6 preferably chosen on the bonding face 11 '(or alternatively a white enamel) or the opposite face. One can cite for example the extrablanc paint of the product Planilaque Evolution of the applicant company with as the majority pigment of TiO2. The thickness is typically between 40 and 60pm. Alternatively, on the gluing face 11 'the lacquer is white (like the Extrablanc product Planilaque Evolution) in the area opposite the discontinuity. Elsewhere there may be one or more bright areas of color. Alternatively, a face of the first or second lamination interlayer 7 or 7 'comprises a diffusing layer, for example is a PVB preferably printed locally at least in this central region. Figure 4 shows a partial sectional view of a light glazing 400 with optical isolator in a fourth embodiment.
[0037] Only the differences from the second mode are described. The luminous glazing 400 differs as follows. The second substrate 1 'comprises on its entire face 12' opposite to the bonding face 11 'a tinted element 51, for example a plastic film such as a tinted PET bonded by an optical adhesive or by a lamination interlayer (PVB etc.) , especially clear, extraclear. The extraction means 6 are displaced on the second (outer) face 12. FIG. 5 shows a partial sectional view of a luminous glazing unit 500 with an optical isolator in a fifth embodiment. Only differences from the first mode are described. The luminous glazing 500 differs as follows. In replacement (or alternatively in addition) of the decorative paint 5 is inserted an electrically controllable system with variable optical properties 52, here liquid crystal, between the inner face 11 and the bonding face 11 ', the following sequence: - the first lamination interlayer 7 (EVA or even PVB or PVB + EVA) / the low film index 2 / second lamination interlayer 7 "(EVA or even PVB or PVB + EVA) / a first transparent electrode support 81 such as PET / First transparent electrode 82 including ITO (indium tin oxide) or silver multilayer / liquid crystal layer 83 / second transparent electrode 84 including ITO or silver multilayer / second transparent electrode support 85 such as PET In the off state, the system is opaque and, when the system is transparent, the second glass 1 'is, for example, tinted or identical to the glass 1.
[0038] The extraction means (not shown) are for example similar, a diffusing layer, such as a white enamel, on the inner face 11 or alternatively on the outer face 12. FIG. 6 shows a partial sectional view of a glazing unit 600 light with optical isolator in a sixth embodiment. Only the differences from the second mode are described. The luminous glazing 600 differs as follows. The first decor and / or masking coating is replaced by a silver-based mirror layer 50 with a conventional protective overcoat (not shown) or a chrome-based spy mirror. We thus form an illuminating mirror. Preferably, the mirror is visible at least in the central zone and the light zone (s) are peripheral (one or two solid or discontinuous bands from discrete patterns). The extraction means 6 are for example a diffusing layer on the inner face 11.
[0039] Diodes can be added to the opposite wafer (not shown). Figure 7 shows a partial sectional view of a light pane 700 with optical isolator in a seventh embodiment. Only the differences from the second mode are described. The luminous glazing 700 differs as follows. The second glass substrate is made of organic glass, for example a tinted plastic film such as a tinted PET 53, preferably of face opposite to the free bonding face. For example, a cupboard furniture door is thus formed.
[0040] Alternatively, the first glass substrate 1 is organic, for example PC or PMMA. Figure 8 shows a partial sectional view of a light glazing unit 800 with optical isolator in an eighth embodiment. Only the differences from the third mode are described. The bright glazing 800 differs as follows. The second glass substrate is made of organic glass, for example a diffusing film 6 forming the extraction means in the discontinuous zone 23.
[0041] Figure 9 shows a partial sectional view of a light glazing 900 with optical isolator in a ninth embodiment. Only the differences from the second mode are described. The luminous glazing 900 differs as follows.
[0042] This luminous glazing 900 is used for example as a car roof. The guide glass 1 is about 2 mm like the second glass 1 '(tinted). The luminous glazing 900 has at the periphery a polymeric encapsulation of PU 90, black or gray, of biface type (flush face 12 'opposite to the bonding face 11') preferably on an adhesion primer or alternatively a preassembled seal of preferably flush too. The encapsulation may also be single-sided, so do not extend on the second side 12. The space between the emitting face and the coupling portion 13 (rounded, for a car-type shaping) is filled by glue optical 9 '. The glass 1 'is tinted and preferably also the second spacer 7'.
[0043] The guide glass 1 has a local longitudinal recess on the coupling wafer 13 to accommodate the diodes 4 which are lateral emitting face. Glue 9 'on the rear face of the PCB 41 serves to fix the PCB + diode assembly on the bonding face 11'. The PCB, for example opaque, extends laterally towards the lamination interlayer 7 and serves to mask the hot spots. It extends in a groove between the bonding face and the first face by removing the first and second lamination interleaves preferably each PVB + EVA, low index film.
[0044] The PCB 41 is not in optical contact with the inner face 12 because there is an air gap. The PCB, here a bar, can be metallic for heat dissipation or on a metal base. The PVB and / or EVA of the second spacer 7 'is preferably tinted as well. An opaque coating such as an enamel 5 'is peripheral of the bonding face 12' and extending between the bonding face and the second spacer 7 'also to promote the masking of the escaping stray light. It can also be side opposite to the bonding face.
[0045] The diffusing layer for extraction is on the outer face 12. The adhesive at the back and / or the glue with the coupling wafer 13 can be removed. In a variant, the extraction means 6 form an optical concentrator, for a reading light for example.
[0046] Figure 10 shows a partial sectional view of a light glazing 1000 with optical isolator in a tenth embodiment. Only the differences from the ninth mode are described. The luminous glazing 1000 differs as follows. The application is here in the building for example as a partition. The slices of the windows 1, 1 'are straight, the glazing 1, 1' thickest example of 4 or 6mm. The diffusing layer for the extraction is on the internal face and not the outer face 12. The polymeric encapsulation is removed (optional). Alternatively, the layer 5 'is removed. It is possible to use a mounting profile of the luminous glazing (metal, plastic, wood, etc.), for example of L-shaped or U-shaped section, protruding on the faces 12 'and 12 without being in optical contact preferably with the face 12. This profile of mounting can also be used to mask hot spots on the outer face and / or face opposite to the bonding face.
[0047] The face 12 'opposite to the bonding face 11' is, for example, entirely frosted 120 or partially, like the Satinovo glass of the Applicant. Instead of making a local recess in the guide glass 1 can shift the second glass to overtake and even choose a first smaller glass to avoid a shift of opposite slices to the side of the optical coupling The emitting face is spaced preferably not more than 1mm from the coupling section (without optical glue).
[0048] As a variant, top-emitting diodes are used, the PCB support is then in front of the coupling wafer and for example glued by an optical glue or a transparent double-sided or else a diode attachment profile (not exceeding not the slice of the second glazing 1 'preferably) U or L preferably metal with a base at the rear of the PCB support and a wing attached to the bonding surface in the protruding zone and possibly another wing to the opposite. The wing (s) can be used to hide hot spots.
