[0035] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] Implementation Method 1

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a glass assembly with integrated guide rails, comprising a glass structure 1, a guide rail 3, and an edge 2. The guide rail 3 is integrated with the glass structure 1 via the edge 2. The glass structure 1 comprises an inner glass 11 and an outer glass 12 that are stacked. The edge of the outer glass 12 extends outward relative to the edge of the inner glass 11 to form an overlap, such that an overlap space 14 is defined on the inner side of the edge of the outer glass 12. The edge 2 is at least partially installed in the overlap space 14 and in contact with an inner side surface 1211 of the edge of the outer glass 12.

[0038] Specifically, the inner glass 11 has an inner side surface 111 and an outer side surface 112 arranged opposite to each other in the thickness direction Y, and an edge end surface 113 connecting the inner side surface 111 and the outer side surface 112. The outer glass 12 also has an inner side surface 121 and an outer side surface 122 arranged opposite to each other in the thickness direction Y, and an edge end surface 123 connecting the inner side surface 121 and the outer side surface 122; the outer side surface 112 of the inner glass 11 is connected to the inner side surface 121 of the outer glass 12.

[0039] The glass assembly with integrated guide rails of the present invention forms an overlap between the outer glass 12 and the inner glass 11, so that an overlap space 14 is provided on the inner side of the edge of the outer glass 12. The overlap space 14 is used to provide installation space for at least a portion of the edging 2 and enables at least a portion of the edging 2 to be in contact with the inner side surface 121 of the edge of the outer glass 12. Compared with the case where the edging 2 is directly arranged on the inner side surface 111 of the inner glass 11, the overall size of the glass assembly of the present invention in the thickness direction Y is reduced, thereby reducing the space occupied by the edging 2 on the inner side of the inner glass 11.

[0040] The glass assembly of the present invention is particularly suitable for use in vehicles as a fixed glass assembly (such as a corner window glass assembly) of the vehicle, to cooperate with the movable glass assembly (such as a lifting glass assembly), to reduce the space occupied by the fixed glass assembly in the vehicle, so that the vehicle has more flexible space in the overall vehicle design. Specifically, the movable glass assembly includes movable glass and a slide rail installed on the movable glass. In order to reduce driving resistance and make the vehicle more beautiful, the outer side surface of the movable glass is flush with the outer side surface of the glass structure 1 (that is, the outer side surface 122 of the outer glass 12), and a sealing strip 4 is installed in the guide rail 3. The sealing strip 4 is provided with a slide groove 41, and the slide rail is sealed and slidably arranged in the slide groove 41. Of course, the glass assembly of the present invention can also be applied to other technical fields, and can also produce the above-mentioned beneficial effects.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the guide rail 3 has a guide portion for guiding the sliding of the sliding member, and part or all of the guide portion is located in the overlap space 14. Since the distance between the inner side surface of the guide portion of the guide rail 3, which is arranged toward the inner side of the glass structure 1, and the outer side surface of the outer glass 12 is the maximum thickness dimension of the glass assembly in the thickness direction Y, by arranging part or all of the guide portion in the overlapping space 14, the edging 2 is at least partially sandwiched between the guide portion and the edge portion of the outer glass 12. The sum of the thickness of the guide portion, the thickness of the outer glass 12, and the thickness of the edging 2 sandwiched between the guide portion and the edge portion of the outer glass 12 is equal to the maximum thickness of the glass assembly. In the prior art, the maximum thickness of the glass assembly is the sum of the thickness of the guide portion, the thickness of the outer glass 12, the thickness of the inner glass 11, and the thickness of the edging sandwiched between the inner glass 11 and the guide portion. Therefore, when the thickness of the edging 2 is the same, the maximum thickness of the glass assembly of the present invention can at least be reduced by the thickness of the inner glass 11, thereby maximally reducing the maximum thickness dimension of the glass assembly in the thickness direction Y. The thickness of the edging 2 sandwiched between the guide portion and the edge of the outer glass 12 is not specifically limited; it is sufficient to ensure that the injection pressure of the edging 2 is not excessive and that the bonding strength of the edging 2 to the guide portion and the edge of the outer glass 12 meets the requirements. Specifically, the sliding member can be a slide rail on the movable glass. The guide portion of the guide rail 3 is provided with a guide groove or other guide structure to mount the sealing strip 4, and the slide groove 41 of the sealing strip 4 guides the slide rail on the movable glass.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the edge wrapping 2 has an inner joining surface 25 for connecting with the guide rail 3, and the guide rail 3 has an outer joining surface 31 for connecting with the inner joining surface 25. Specifically, the guide rail 3 and the glass structure 1 are inserted into the edge wrapping injection mold, and the outer joining surface 31 of the guide rail 3 cooperates with the glass structure 1 and the edge wrapping injection mold to form an edge wrapping injection cavity. The edge wrapping material is then injected into the edge wrapping injection cavity. The edge wrapping material solidifies to form the edge wrapping 2, which is then combined with the guide rail 3 and the glass structure 1, thereby integrating the guide rail 3 with the glass structure 1. Among them, when the distance between the external bonding surface 31 and the glass structure 1 is smaller, it is more difficult to inject the edging material into the edging injection molding cavity, that is, the pressure (that is, the injection pressure) of the edging material injected into the edging injection molding cavity is greater; when the distance between the external bonding surface 31 and the glass structure 1 is larger, it is easier to inject the edging material into the edging injection molding cavity, that is, the injection pressure of the edging material is smaller; therefore, in order to avoid the glass structure 1 being squeezed by the edging material and cracking due to excessive injection pressure, it is necessary to ensure that the edging 2 has a certain thickness so that the edging material can be injected into the edging injection molding cavity under the required injection pressure.

[0043] like Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the inner bonding surface 25 and the outer bonding surface 31 are both planar structures arranged parallel to the glass structure 1, and the structure is simple.

[0044] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in other embodiments of the present invention, the thickness of the edging 2 increases step by step from the end close to the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12 to the end close to the edge end face 113 of the inner glass 11, and the inner bonding surface 25 and the outer bonding surface 31 are matched step surface structures, which increases the bonding area between the edging 2 and the guide rail 3 and improves the bonding strength between the edging 2 and the guide rail 3.

[0045] like Figures 7 to 9 As shown, in some further embodiments of the present invention, matching coupling protrusions 26 and coupling grooves 35 are provided between the inner coupling surface 25 and the outer coupling surface 31, thereby increasing the coupling area between the edging 2 and the guide rail 3, improving the coupling strength between the edging 2 and the guide rail 3, and preventing the edging from being short of material. Preferably, the coupling groove 35 is provided on the outer coupling surface 31 of the guide rail 3, while the coupling protrusion 26 is formed on the inner coupling surface 25 of the edging 2, thereby increasing the coupling strength of the two while also increasing the thickness of the edging 2, increasing the fluidity of the edging material during injection molding of the edging 2, and preventing the edging 2 from being short of material after molding. It should be noted that the provision of the coupling protrusion 26 and the coupling groove 35 is applicable to both Figures 7 to 9 The schematic single-layer glass structure is also suitable for Figures 1 to 6 The illustrated multi-layer glass structures can all produce the same beneficial effects as mentioned above.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present invention, the edging 2 may only be in contact with the inner side surface 1211 of the edge portion of the outer glass 12 .

[0047] In order to improve the bonding strength between the edging 2 and the glass structure 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in other embodiments of the present invention, the edge 2 includes a first portion 21, a second portion 22, and a third portion 23. The first portion 21 is located within the overlap space 14 and abuts the inner side surface 1211 of the edge of the outer glass 12. The second portion 22 is connected to the first portion 21 and abuts the edge end surface 113 of the inner glass 11. The third portion 23 is connected to the second portion 22 and abuts the inner side surface 1111 of the edge of the inner glass 11. Due to the overlap space 14, the portion of the edge 2 corresponding to the overlap space 14 can be thicker, thereby eliminating the need to increase the injection pressure of the edge 2. The third portion 23 of the edge 2 abutting the inner side surface 111 of the inner glass 11 can be thinner (the thickness of the third portion 23 is less than the thickness of the edge 2 when it is entirely located on the inner side surface 111 of the inner glass 11). As a result, the edge 2 only occupies a small space inside the inner glass 11.

[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, in some other embodiments of the present invention, the edging 2 is not provided with the third part 23 but only with the first part 21 and the second part 22. The first part 21 is located in the overlapping space 14 and is connected to the inner side surface 1211 of the edge portion of the outer glass 12, and the second part 22 is connected to the first part 21 and is connected to the edge end face 113 of the inner glass 11.

[0049] In addition, if Figure 4 As shown, in order to further improve the bonding strength between the edge 2 and the glass structure 1, in some other embodiments of the present invention, the edge 2 may further include a fourth portion 24, which is connected to the first portion 21 and is in contact with the edge end surface 123 of the outer glass 12. The fourth portion 24 only occupies space in the plane direction of the glass structure 1 and does not occupy space on the inner side of the inner glass 11.

[0050] It should be noted that, to facilitate description of the mating relationship between the edging 2 and the glass structure 1, the present invention defines a first portion 21, a second portion 22, a third portion 23, and a fourth portion 24. The shapes and sizes of the first portion 21, the second portion 22, the third portion 23, and the fourth portion 24 are not specifically limited. Furthermore, if the bonding strength meets the requirements, a portion of the edging 2 can be connected to the glass structure 1 through injection molding, adhesive bonding, or other fixed connection methods, while another portion of the edging 2 can be connected to the glass structure 1 through contact, abutment, or other non-fixed connection methods.

[0051] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the outer side surface 112 of the inner glass 11 is connected to the inner side surface 121 of the outer glass 12 via the intermediate interlayer 13. The edge wrapping 2 is also connected to the edge end surface 133 of the intermediate interlayer 13, thereby protecting the edge end surface 133 of the intermediate interlayer 13 by the edge wrapping 2. Specifically, the intermediate interlayer 13 includes but is not limited to at least one intermediate adhesive layer 131, and may also include an intermediate functional layer 132 such as a dimming film layer and / or a luminescent film layer.

[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the outer side surface 112 of the inner glass 11 is bonded and fixed to the inner side surface 121 of the outer glass 12 through an intermediate bonding layer 131. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some other embodiments of the present invention, the intermediate functional layer 132 is bonded and fixed between two intermediate adhesive layers 131, and the two intermediate adhesive layers 131 are respectively connected to the inner side surface 121 of the outer glass 12 and the outer side surface 112 of the inner glass 11.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the width dimension of the overlap space 14 in the thickness direction Y of the glass structure 1 is equal to the distance between the inner side surface 121 of the outer glass 12 and the inner side surface 111 of the inner glass 11, and the length dimension of the overlap space 14 in the length direction X of the glass structure 1 is equal to the distance between the edge end surface 123 of the outer glass 12 and the edge end surface 113 of the inner glass 11.

[0054] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the edging 2 is partially installed in the overlap space 14, that is, the overall thickness of the edging 2 is greater than the width dimension of the overlap space 14 and / or the overall length of the edging 2 is greater than the length dimension of the overlap space 14.

[0055] like Figure 3 As shown, in some other embodiments of the present invention, the edging 2 is installed as a whole in the overlapping space 14, that is, the overall thickness of the edging 2 is less than or equal to the width dimension of the overlapping space 14, and the overall length of the edging 2 is less than or equal to the length dimension of the overlapping space 14.

[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the overlap space 14 only provides installation space for the edge 2 but does not provide installation space for the guide rail 3. Specifically, the distance between the inner joint surface 25 of the edge 2 and the inner side surface 121 of the outer glass 12 is greater than or equal to the width of the overlap space 14.

[0057] In order to further reduce the overall thickness of the glass assembly, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in other embodiments of the present invention, the inner joining surface 25 and the outer joining surface 31 at least partially fit within the overlap space 14. That is, a portion of the guide rail 3 is installed within the overlap space 14. In other words, a portion of the overlap space 14 provides installation space for a portion of the guide rail 3, thereby reducing the space occupied by the guide rail 3 within the vehicle. Specifically, the distance between at least a portion of the inner joining surface 25 of the edging 2 and the inner side surface 121 of the outer glass 12 is less than the width of the overlap space 14.

[0058] In order to avoid the problem of overflow and flash of the edge material in the edge injection cavity during injection molding, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, one end of the guide rail 3 near the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12 moves relative to the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12 toward the inner glass 11 to avoid a portion of the inner side surface 121 of the outer glass 12, and the portion of the inner side surface 121 on the edge of the outer glass 12 avoided by the guide rail 3 is used to form a mold mating surface 114 for mating with the edge wrapping injection mold, so that the edge wrapping injection mold is used to block the end of the guide rail 3 near the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12, thereby preventing the edge wrapping material in the edge wrapping injection cavity from overflowing from the end of the guide rail 3 near the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12 and / or leaking flash.

[0059] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, in other embodiments of the present invention, one end of the guide rail 3 close to the edge end surface 123 of the outer glass 12 is arranged flush with the edge end surface 123 of the outer glass 12, that is, the guide rail 3 does not need to avoid the inner side surface 121 of the outer glass 12, so there is no need to control the avoidance amount, and it is applicable to guide rails 3 of different widths (that is, the width of the guide rail in the length direction X of the glass structure 1).

[0060] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, a sealing tongue 42 is provided on the sealing strip 4. The sealing tongue 42 can be sandwiched between the outer glass 12 and the movable glass. The two ends of the sealing tongue 42 are respectively in sealing contact with the outer glass 12 and the movable glass.

[0061] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, a blocking seal 34 is injection molded at one end of the guide rail 3 near the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12. The blocking seal 34, the guide rail 3, and the glass structure 1 cooperate within the edge-wrapping injection mold to form an edge-wrapping injection cavity. Specifically, the blocking seal 34 is provided with a sealing tongue 42, which can be sandwiched between the outer glass 12 and the movable glass. The ends of the sealing tongue 42 are in sealing contact with the outer glass 12 and the movable glass, respectively. In other words, in this embodiment, the portion of the sealing strip 4 provided with the sealing tongue 42 is first integrated into the end of the guide rail 3 near the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12 through injection molding to form the blocking seal 34. The blocking seal 34 then blocks the edging material within the edging injection cavity at the end of the guide rail 3 near the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12, thereby preventing the edging material from overflowing or leaking from the end of the guide rail 3 near the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12. The sealing tongue 42 can be in sealing contact with the fourth portion 24 of the edging 2 that is in contact with the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12. Of course, the edging 2 can also be provided without the fourth portion 24, and the sealing tongue 42 can be directly in sealing contact with the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12.

[0062] like Figure 5As shown, in another embodiment of the present invention, a sealing strip 32 is bonded to the guide rail 3, and the sealing strip 32 is in contact with the inner side surface 121 of the outer glass 12. The sealing strip 32, the guide rail 3 and the glass structure 1 cooperate to form an edge molding cavity in the edge molding mold. When the edge molding cavity is injected, the sealing strip 32 will block the edge molding cavity, thereby preventing the edge molding material from overflowing or leaking from the edge end surface 123 of the guide rail 3 close to the outer glass 12. Specifically, the material of the sealing strip 32 includes but is not limited to TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), PVC (polyvinyl chloride), etc. The sealing strip 32 is provided on the outer joint surface 31 of the guide rail 3 and is provided close to the edge end surface 123 of the outer glass 12.

[0063] In order to further improve the reliability of the sealing strip 32, Figure 6 As shown, in another embodiment of the present invention, the guide rail 3 is further provided with a rib 33, which blocks the end of the sealing strip 32 near the edge end face 123 of the outer glass 12. By placing the sealing strip 32 against the side of the rib 33 with higher structural strength, the sealing strip 32 can be prevented from loosening and shifting due to the injection pressure of the edging material. Specifically, the guide rail 3 is a metal part, and the rib 33 is integrally stamped and formed on the outer joint surface 31 of the guide rail 3. Optionally, the guide rail 3 is an extruded non-metallic part, and the rib 33 is extruded and formed on the outer joint surface 31 of the guide rail 3.
