Problems solved by technology

[0015] The disadvantage of forming the liner in an open mold is that the exterior shape and surface texture can only be designed for the portion of the liner that touches the open mold
This limits the coating possibilities of the liner and panels as the shape and texture of the liner cannot be preset

Embodiment Construction

[0045] In the prior art method shown in Figure 1, the gasket is applied by means of a spraying process to a glass panel 3, eg a glass panel arranged to be installed in a vehicle opening. Since the present invention is based on this prior art, this prior art is explained in detail below. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that many details are equally applicable to the method and mold of the present invention, and these details are explained to better understand the characteristics and alternative embodiments of the present invention.

[0046] The gasket is attached to a portion of the panel 3 and extends along at least a portion of its periphery. Instead of providing a gasket on a glass panel, it can also be applied on other types of panels, such as on sheet metal, or on synthetic panels such as polycarbonate, or on solar panels. The gasket forms in particular an edge profile which serves as means for closing or covering the gap between the panel and the edge of the ope...

Abstract

Mould for producing a panel assembly comprising a panel and a gasket, which gasket is adhered to the panel, and extends along at least a portion of the periphery thereof, the mould comprising a first mould part and a second mould part that are formed such that the panel can been closed thereby forming a closed cavity the inner boundaries of which are formed by a first mould surface, a second mould surface and the periphery of the panel, and wherein the second mould part comprises a resilient lip extending along the periphery, the resilient lip being provided for being displaced by an applicator device to provide access to the closed cavity.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a panel assembly comprising a panel and a gasket attached to the panel, extending along at least part of its periphery and having a surface molded against a solid surface, the method comprising the steps of: [0002] - providing a first mold part having a first mold surface forming a first portion of said solid surface; [0003] - placing the panel and the first mold surface against each other; [0004] - Manufactured by means of an applicator device moving along at least said part of the periphery of the panel, wherein at least said part of the periphery of the panel forms the second part of said solid surface, while applying a composition onto said solid surface the liner, the liner being manufactured by allowing the composition to cure against the solid surface; [0005] - removal of the panels and the pads manufactured thereon from the mould; [0006] wherein the composition has a dynamic...
