[0031] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0032] As described in the background art, after a period of use, the edges of the through holes in the car window glass of the related technology are prone to cracking defects. The inventors have found that the reason for this problem is that the button in the related technology has a movable gap between it and the wall of the through hole. Its position in the through hole is not centered, which will cause stress concentration in the glass when it comes into contact with the edge of the through hole, making it prone to cracking.

[0033] For the reasons mentioned above, this application provides a glass assembly and glass product that can reduce the risk of glass shattering.

[0034] See Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 A structural view of a glass assembly according to an embodiment of this application is shown. Figure 2 This paper shows another structural view of a glass assembly according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 It shows Figure 1 A cross-sectional view of the first embodiment at point AA. One embodiment of this application provides a glass assembly including a glass body 10, an edge banding member 20, and a control device 30. A through hole 101 is formed on the glass body 10, extending along its thickness direction. The edge banding member 20 is fixed to, specifically including but not limited to, integrally injection molded onto the glass body 10. The edge banding member 20 includes a main body portion 21 connected to the inner surface of the glass body 10 and a protective portion 22 connected to the main body portion 21. The protective portion 22 is disposed within the through hole 101, and may be completely inside the through hole 101 or partially extend outside the through hole 101. The outer periphery of the protective portion 22 conforms to the shape of the hole wall of the through hole 101 and is tightly connected to it. The control device 30 is connected and fixed to the edge banding member 20, and the control device 30 includes a pressing member 31 aligned with the through hole 101.

[0035] It should be noted that the glass body 10 may be, but is not limited to, single-layer glass or laminated glass, depending on actual needs. Furthermore, the shape of the through-hole 101 may be, but is not limited to, regular shapes such as circles, ellipses, and polygons, as well as other irregular shapes, and may be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs.

[0036] In addition, in this embodiment, the inner side of the glass body 10 refers to the side of the glass body 10 that is on the same side as the control device 30, and the outer side of the glass body 10 refers to the other side of the glass body 10.

[0037] In some embodiments, the edge-binding material used in the component includes, but is not limited to, elastic materials, preferably TPE material with good elasticity, followed by PVC material, and then PU material. Other elastic materials can also be flexibly adjusted and selected according to actual needs, without specific limitations.

[0038] In some embodiments, the control device 30 includes, but is not limited to, a micro switch, a volume control, a temperature control, a brightness control, etc. Furthermore, the control device 30 can perform the control function either by pressing or by touch.

[0039] In the aforementioned glass assembly, on the one hand, the control device 30 can be fixedly mounted on the glass body 10 via the edge-sealing part 20, and can push the pressing part 31 made of elastic edge-sealing material at the through hole 101 to realize the control function of the control device 30; on the other hand, since the outer periphery of the protective part 22 is adapted to the shape of the hole wall of the through hole 101 and is tightly connected to each other, it can protect the edge of the through hole 101, and can avoid the glass stress concentration and cracking defects caused by the control device 30 contacting the edge of the through hole 101.

[0040] The gap between the button and the wall of the through hole 101 in the related technology will also lead to poor sealing and leakage; in addition, the sealing structure of the button is complex and difficult to install, resulting in low installation efficiency. In one embodiment, please refer to... Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 or Figure 7 The protective part 22 completely seals the through hole 101. In other words, no vents or openings penetrating its two opposite sides are opened within the outer periphery of the protective part 22. This effectively improves the sealing performance of the glass assembly and prevents water leakage. In addition, the control device 30 is located below the protective part 22 and is completely covered by the protective part 22, preventing the control device 30 from being exposed. Furthermore, the thickness of the protective part 22 can be flexibly adjusted and designed according to actual needs. As long as the protective part 22 can deform accordingly during the pressing process and transmit the pressing force to the pressing member 31, the pressing member 31 can perform various control operations after being activated.

[0041] Of course, for some alternative solutions, please refer to Figure 8The protective part 22 only blocks a portion of the through hole 101, such as the outer perimeter or other areas of the through hole 101. The remaining areas not blocked by the protective part 22 are sealed by the control device 30 or other components to ensure sealing performance. As an example, the protective part 22 has a window 221, and the control device 30 includes a housing 32. The housing 32 passes through the window 221 and is tightly connected to the opening wall of the window 221. The pressing member 31 is located inside the housing 32, and can be directly or indirectly connected to the inner wall of the housing 32. The housing 32 can deform under external pressure and push the pressing member 31 to move. Specifically, the protective part 22 is also integrally injection molded with the housing 32 using an edge-sealing material. In the glass assembly process, for example, the housing 32 of the encapsulated control device 30 is aligned and placed in the middle of the through hole 101, and the housing 32 and the glass body 10 are integrally injection molded using an edge-sealing material using a molding die. In this way, the control device 30 can be stably fixed to the glass body 10, while maintaining high production efficiency. Furthermore, the pressing member 31 of the control device 30 is specifically located inside the outer casing 32. The end of the outer casing 32 that extends into the through hole 101 is specifically designed to be sealed and elastic. This prevents the edge-sealing material from entering the interior of the outer casing 32 during the injection molding process with the glass body 10. Additionally, the outer casing 32 can elastically deform under external force, thereby correspondingly pushing the pressing member 31. Of course, the outer casing 32 can also be fixedly connected to the protective part 22, for example, by adhesive bonding.

[0042] Please refer to the following: Figure 8 The end face 323 of the outer casing 32 is, but is not limited to, flush with the outer surface of the glass body 10, thereby improving the appearance of the product. Furthermore, a mounting portion 321 is provided on the outer wall of the outer casing 32. The mounting portion 321 is, but is not limited to, a mounting plate, mounting block, etc., and is integrally injection molded or bonded to the main body 21. The mounting portion 321 may be arranged circumferentially around the outer casing 32 or respectively on opposite sides of the outer casing 32. Thus, the mounting portion 321 allows the outer casing 32 to be securely connected to the edge trim 20, improving the installation stability of the control device 30 on the glass body 10. Moreover, by increasing the outer contour dimensions of the main body 21 and the mounting portion 321, i.e., increasing the mating surface area, the connection between the outer casing 32 and the glass body 10 can be correspondingly strengthened, making the control device 30 less likely to detach under external force.

[0043] Please refer to the following: Figure 3In one embodiment, the glass assembly further includes an insert frame 40. The insert frame 40 is embedded and fixed inside the edge banding 20, and the insert frame 40 has a connecting portion 41 for connection and fixation with the control device 30. In this way, the insert frame 40 can increase the connection stability of the edge banding 20 on the glass body 10, and at the same time, the connecting portion 41 can be used to install and fix the control device 30, thereby increasing the installation stability of the control device 30 on the glass body 10 and avoiding the defect of the control device 30 falling off under force.

[0044] In order to facilitate connection with the control device 30, the connecting part 41 extends to the outside of the edge banding 20.

[0045] In some embodiments, the insert skeleton 40 may be, but is not limited to, a metal part or a non-metal part. The metal part may be, for example, an aluminum part, an iron part, a copper part, etc., and may be formed by stamping, forging, etc.; while the non-metal part may be, for example, a plastic part, and may be formed by injection molding, etc.

[0046] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment, the control device 30 further includes a housing 32 and a fastener 33. The housing 32 has a mounting portion 321, and the fastener 33 passes through the mounting portion 321 and is connected and fixed to the connecting portion 41. In this way, the housing 32 can be mounted on the insert frame 40. Optionally, the mounting portion 321 is not limited to being fixedly mounted on the insert frame 40 by the fastener 33, but can also be connected and fixed to the connecting portion 41 by, for example, adhesive bonding, thereby achieving fixed mounting on the insert frame 40.

[0047] In some embodiments, the fastener 33 includes, but is not limited to, screws, bolts, pins, rivets, snap fasteners, etc., and the connecting portion 41 is provided with mounting holes corresponding to the fastener 33. Alternatively, the fastener 33 may also be, for example, a nut, and the connecting portion 41 may be a screw or bolt accordingly.

[0048] In some embodiments, the number of fasteners 33 may be one, two, three, or more, and the number of connecting portions 41 and mounting portions 321 may be the same as the number of fasteners 33. Specifically, there may be two mounting portions 321 located on opposite sides of the housing 32, and two fasteners 33 and two connecting portions 41 respectively. Each fastener 33 passes through a mounting portion 321 and is correspondingly connected and fixed to a connecting portion 41.

[0049] Please see Figure 3In some embodiments, since the protective part 22 completely blocks the through hole 101, a high sealing performance at the through hole 101 can be ensured, thereby reducing the sealing performance of the outer shell 32 itself. Specifically, in order to facilitate the transmission of the pressing force at the protective part 22 to the pressing member 31, a movable hole 322 is provided on the outer shell 32 at a position opposite to the protective part 22. The pressing member 31 is movably disposed at the movable hole 322, and the pressing member 31 and the protective part 22 are pressed together or have a gap. In this way, when the protective part 22 is subjected to pressure, it can correspondingly drive the pressing member 31 to move, and the action sensitivity is high.

[0050] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment, the main body 21 is connected to the outer periphery of the protective part 22 and is arranged circumferentially around the through hole 101; the insert frame 40 includes a support frame 42 that is embedded and fixed in the edge banding 20 and is arranged circumferentially around the through hole 101, and the connecting part 41 is connected to the support frame 42. Thus, on the one hand, the main body 21 and the protective part 22 are connected to form a protective cover, which covers the top of the outer shell 32; on the other hand, the support frame 42 embedded and fixed in the edge banding 20 is connected to the control device 30 through the connecting part 41, and plays the role of supporting the control device 30, so that the edge banding 20 and the control device 30 are not easily dislodged when subjected to compressive force.

[0051] In some embodiments, the connecting part 41 and the support frame 42 are integrated into one structure, including but not limited to injection molding or forging.

[0052] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the edging member 20 can be completely wrapped around the outside of the support frame 42, specifically as follows: Figure 3 As shown; it can also be partially wrapped around the outside of the support frame 42, such as Figure 4 As shown, for example, the connection portion 41 between the first connecting plate 421 and the second connecting plate 422 is exposed.

[0053] Please refer to the following: Figure 3 In one embodiment, the support frame 42 includes a first connecting plate 421 embedded and fixed within the main body 21 of the glass body 10, and a second connecting plate 422 connected to the first connecting plate 421. The second connecting plate 422 is embedded and fixed within the outer periphery of the protective part 22. This increases the structural strength of the edge-sealing member 20, allowing it to be more stably bonded and fixed to the inner surface of the glass body 10.

[0054] In some embodiments, the first connecting plate 421 is parallel to the inner surface of the glass body 10. The second connecting plate 422 is perpendicular to the inner surface of the glass body 10. The radial cross-sectional profile of the structure formed by the combination of the first connecting plate 421 and the second connecting plate 422 is L-shaped.

[0055] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 5 The structure shown is the same as Figure 3 The main difference between the structures shown is that, in some embodiments, the support frame 42 further includes a third connecting plate 423 connected to the second connecting plate 422. The third connecting plate 423 is embedded and fixed inside the outer periphery of the protective part 22. The third connecting plate 423 is, for example, parallel to the inner surface of the glass body 10. The radial cross-sectional profile of the structure formed by the combination of the first connecting plate 421, the second connecting plate 422, and the third connecting plate 423 is correspondingly Z-shaped.

[0056] It should be noted that the radial cross-sectional profile of the support can also be set to other shapes, which can be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs, and are not limited here.

[0057] Please see Figure 5 In one specific embodiment, the surface of the first connecting plate 421 is parallel to the inner surface of the glass body 10. This ensures that the thickness of the edging material between the surface of the first connecting plate 421 and the inner surface of the glass body 10 is consistent, which improves connection stability. Furthermore, the surface of the second connecting plate 422 is arranged along the thickness direction of the glass body 10. This ensures that the thickness of the edging material between the surface of the second connecting plate 422 and the wall of the through hole 101 is consistent, which also improves connection stability. Additionally, a third connecting plate 423 is arranged in the area between the pressing member 31 and the wall of the through hole 101, with one end of the third connecting plate 423 extending towards the pressing member 31. The structure formed by the combination of the second connecting plate 422 and the third connecting plate 423 provides support and reinforcement to the outer periphery of the protective part 22, thereby protecting the edge of the through hole 101 and preventing stress concentration and cracking defects caused by contact between the regulating device 30 and the edge of the through hole 101.

[0058] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 3 to 5 and Figure 7 When the protective part 22 completely blocks the through hole 101, the outer surface of the protective part 22 can be a plane flush with the outer surface of the glass body 10, a wall recessed towards the internal environment, a wall protruding towards the external environment, or other shapes as needed; no limitation is made here. Furthermore, the outer surface of the protective part 22 may have warning patterns, prompts, markings, etc. Additionally, the outer surface of the protective part 22 can be made glossy to match the glass body 10, or it can be made with a frosted surface to prevent fingerprints.

[0059] Of course, please see Figure 8When the protective part 22 only blocks a portion of the through hole 101, that is, the protective part 22 and the outer shell 32 are combined to block the through hole 101. Similarly, the outer surfaces of the protective part 22 and the outer shell 32 can be various shapes such as flat, concave, and convex. In addition, warning patterns, prompts, and markings can be provided; furthermore, they can be made with a glossy surface to match the glass body 10, or with a characteristic frosted surface to prevent fingerprints.

[0060] Please refer to the figure. Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, when the glass body 10 is set as laminated glass, the through hole 101 can be not only a straight through hole 101 with a consistent diameter along the thickness direction of the glass body 10, but also a stepped shape. In this way, when the protective part 22 adapts to and connects with the shape of the through hole 101, the protective part 22 is wrapped and fixed to the outside of the step 102, and the installation stability on the glass body 10 is high and it is not easy to fall off.

[0061] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 7 In one specific embodiment, the glass body 10 includes an outer glass plate 11, an adhesive layer 12, and an inner glass plate 13 stacked sequentially. A first hole 111 is formed on the outer glass plate 11, and a second hole 131 is formed on the inner glass plate 13. The second hole 131 is coaxially arranged with and communicates with the first hole 111 to form a through hole 101. The diameter of the second hole 131 is smaller than the diameter of the first hole 111, thus forming a step 102 on the inner wall of the through hole 101. Thus, when the protective part 22 is wrapped and fixed to the outside of the step 102, the inner, outer, and side edges of the second hole 131 of the inner glass plate 13 achieve a U-shaped edge wrapping effect, while the side edge of the first hole 111 of the outer glass plate 11 is also wrapped, thereby achieving a stable installation on the glass body 10.

[0062] Among them, see Figure 7 Since the edge-sealing component 20 is fixed to the step 102 of the hole wall of the through hole 101, it has high stability on the glass body 10 and is not easy to fall off. This eliminates the need for components like those in the above embodiments. Figures 3 to 5 The structure shown includes an insert skeleton 40, and at least one connector 50 is embedded and fixed inside the edge-binding member 20. The connector 50 is connected and fixed to the control device 30. Thus, since the insert skeleton 40 is not required, the structure is simplified and the cost is reduced.

[0063] Specifically, during the production process, the connector 50 and the glass body 10 are integrally injection molded into the mold using edge-sealing material. In addition, to facilitate the connection and fixation of the connector 50 and the control device 30, a portion of the connector 50 is embedded and fixed inside the edge-sealing part 20, while the other portion extends to the outside of the edge-sealing part 20.

[0064] In some embodiments, the connector 50 includes, but is not limited to, screws, pins, snap-fit ​​components, rivets, etc. Anything that can be connected and secured to the control device 30 is acceptable.

[0065] By connecting the control device 30 to the connector 50 or fixing it to the edge-sealing part 20 with adhesive, it can be ensured that the control device 30 is not easy to fall off during use.

[0066] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 Both the edging piece 20 and the outer casing 32 are made of transparent material. The control device 30 also includes, for example, a light source disposed inside the outer casing 32. At night, light from the light source passes through the outer casing 32 and the edging piece 20 and shines outwards, serving a warning function; projecting the light onto the ground can also serve a welcoming function. Furthermore, please refer to... Figure 7 When the outer shell 32 is embedded and fixed on the protective part 22, the outer shell 32 is made of transparent material. Whether the edge piece 20 is made of transparent material is not limited. The light from the night light source passes directly through the outer shell 32 and shines outward, which also serves as a warning function, etc.

[0067] In summary, the glass assembly in this embodiment has at least the following advantages:

[0068] (1) Protect the edge of the through hole 101 of the glass body 10 to prevent the glass body 10 from cracking due to excessive local stress and extend the service life of the glass. In related technologies, the through hole 101 is not protected at its edge. Now, it is integrally injection molded, and the perimeter of the hole is covered with a soft edge, which can protect the glass body 10.

[0069] (2) It serves as a seal to prevent moisture or dust from entering the glass hole.

[0070] (3) Warning patterns can be engraved on the outer surface of the protective part 22 to improve the product’s recognizability and safety.

[0071] (4) The sandwich edging can also enhance the stability of the edging on the through hole 101. Without using the insert skeleton 40, by setting the hole size of the outer glass plate 11 to be larger than the hole size of the inner glass plate 13, the inner glass plate 13 can provide support on three sides to form a U-shaped edging, which improves the bonding effect and stability between the edging part 20 and the glass body 10 without using other reinforcing inserts.

[0072] (5) Add nighttime warning function. For example, if the edging material is designed to be transparent and a light source is installed inside the outer shell 32, a nighttime warning function can be realized to improve driving safety. If the light source is projected onto the ground, it can also serve as a welcome function.

[0073] (6) Improved aesthetics. The edge of the glass hole after one-piece injection molding is flush with the glass, making the entire glass surface smoother, improving the overall aesthetics of the car, and reducing wind noise.

[0074] (7) Reduce maintenance difficulty. By adopting an integrated design and a bolt fixing method, the installation and maintenance process of the pressing device can be simplified, and maintenance costs can be reduced.

[0075] In one embodiment, a glass article includes the glass assembly of any of the above embodiments, and the glass article includes any one or combination of display cases, building windows and curtain walls, automobiles, ships, locomotives, human-computer interaction, electrical appliances, and information kiosks.

[0076] In the aforementioned glass product, on the one hand, the control device 30 can be fixedly mounted on the glass body 10 through the edge-sealing part 20, and can push the pressing part 31 made of elastic edge-sealing material at the through hole 101 to realize the control function of the control device 30; on the other hand, since the outer periphery of the protective part 22 is adapted to the shape of the hole wall of the through hole 101 and is tightly connected to each other, it can protect the edge of the through hole 101, and can avoid the stress concentration of the glass and the cracking defect caused by the control device 30 contacting the edge of the through hole 101.

[0077] Furthermore, where the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, where the term "multiple" appears, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.
