Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coated glass technology, and more specifically, to a coated glass, a panel, and a household appliance. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous advancement of technology and the improvement of people's living standards, customers have increasingly higher requirements for the appearance of home appliances. Besides basic functions and performance requirements, appearance has become one of the important factors for customers when choosing appliances. Metallic finishes on appliances not only appear high-end but also give a sense of modernity and technology. Wood-grain designs can blend seamlessly with home décor, creating a natural and warm atmosphere. Rock-like designs convey a sense of stability and solidity. Especially in home decoration, the appearance of home appliances must match the overall style.

[0003] As a common substrate for home appliance panels, glass boasts advantages such as high texture, high hardness, high transparency, and ease of cleaning. Through processes like lamination, spraying, printing, and coating, the appearance of glass panels is greatly enriched. Among these, laminated glass is made by bonding a decorative film to the substrate glass using adhesives. Laminated glass not only has a simple and efficient processing method but also allows for customization of various patterns and designs to meet users' personalized decorative needs. Through film layer structure design, laminated glass panels can achieve a leather-like appearance, but currently, there is no commercially available laminated glass with a leather-like texture. To achieve a leather-like effect, a document disclosed a method of setting a leather layer on the glass panel and then creating a groove structure on top of the leather layer to form a leather texture. However, this method, due to the grooves in the leather layer, makes the leather layer prone to deformation under external force or high temperatures. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention addresses the problem that the existing imitation leather layer of coated glass has low strength and is prone to deformation.

[0005] The first aspect of this utility model is to provide a coated glass.

[0006] The second aspect of this utility model is to provide a panel.

[0007] The third aspect of this utility model is to provide a household appliance.

[0008] The first aspect of this utility model provides a coated glass comprising: a glass layer; a fabric layer disposed on one side of the glass layer; and a decorative layer disposed on the side of the fabric layer away from the glass layer. The surface of the decorative layer away from the fabric layer is provided with a raised and recessed structure, which is used to form a textured pattern.

[0009] The coated glass provided by this utility model includes a glass layer, a fabric layer, and a decorative layer. The fabric layer is disposed on one side of the glass layer; the decorative layer is disposed on the side of the fabric layer away from the glass layer. The surface of the decorative layer away from the fabric layer has a raised and recessed structure, which is used to form a textured pattern. By providing the fabric layer, this utility model can provide additional support for the decorative layer, avoiding the problem of low stability caused by grooves on the surface of the decorative layer. Since the fabric itself has a certain mechanical strength, it can help maintain the overall shape of the decorative layer, especially reducing the possibility of deformation under external force.

[0010] In some technical solutions, optionally, the ratio of the thickness of the fabric layer to the thickness of the decorative layer is greater than or equal to 1 / 5 and less than or equal to 1 / 2. By limiting the thickness of the fabric layer, this can prevent the fabric layer from being too thick and affecting the overall imitation effect. Optionally, the ratio of the thickness of the fabric layer to the thickness of the decorative layer is equal to 1 / 3.

[0011] In some technical solutions, the decorative layer may optionally include a faux leather layer.

[0012] In this technical solution, the decorative layer includes a faux leather layer, which gives the coated glass a leather-like appearance, thereby improving its aesthetics. Of course, depending on the specific requirements, a leather layer can also be used directly as the decorative layer, which would yield even better results.

[0013] In some technical solutions, the imitation leather layer may optionally include one or a combination of the following: a polyurethane resin layer, a polyvinyl chloride resin layer, and an acrylic resin layer.

[0014] In this technical solution, the polyurethane resin layer, polyvinyl chloride resin layer, and acrylic resin layer can all serve as imitation leather layers with leather texture and appearance, thereby enabling the coated glass to have the appearance of leather.

[0015] In some technical solutions, the concave-convex structure may optionally include multiple groove structures, at least two of which have different depths.

[0016] In this technical solution, the grooves vary in depth, and by combining textures of different depths, different types of leather (such as cowhide and sheepskin) can be imitated, resulting in a more realistic imitation. Optionally, the grooves can also vary in width, combining coarse and fine textures to diversify the imitation effect.

[0017] In some technical solutions, optionally, the depth of the groove structure is greater than or equal to 10 μm and less than or equal to 50 μm.

[0018] In this technical solution, the depth of the groove structure is greater than or equal to 10 μm and less than or equal to 50 μm. Optionally, it is greater than or equal to 20 μm and less than or equal to 30 μm, for example, 20 μm or 30 μm. If the depth of the groove structure is too shallow, the texture effect is not obvious; if it is too deep, it affects the strength of the decorative layer.

[0019] In some technical solutions, the groove structure may optionally be square, circular, or polygonal in shape.

[0020] In some technical solutions, optionally, the ratio of the depth of the groove structure to the thickness of the decorative layer is greater than or equal to 1 / 10 and less than or equal to 1 / 5.

[0021] In this technical solution, controlling the ratio of the groove depth to the thickness of the decorative layer ensures high strength of the decorative layer and improves the texture effect. Optionally, the ratio of the groove depth to the thickness of the decorative layer is equal to 1 / 5.

[0022] In some technical solutions, the coated glass may optionally include an antibacterial coating disposed on the side of the decorative layer away from the glass layer.

[0023] In some technical solutions, the antibacterial coating may optionally include one or a combination of the following: quaternary ammonium salt compounds, zinc-containing compounds, silver nanoparticles, and essential oil extracts.

[0024] In this technical solution, an antibacterial coating is applied to the side of the decorative layer away from the glass layer, which can improve the antibacterial effect of the coated glass and thus extend its service life.

[0025] In some technical solutions, the coated glass may optionally include a touch coating on the side of the decorative layer away from the glass layer.

[0026] In some technical solutions, the touch coating may optionally include a silicon-containing coating and / or a fluorine-containing coating.

[0027] In this technical solution, the silicon-containing coating and / or fluorine-containing coating endow the glass with anti-fouling, fingerprint-resistant, and strong hydrophobic properties. For example, the silicon-containing coating and / or fluorine-containing coating can be a silicon or fluorine polymer coating.

[0028] In some technical solutions, optionally, the coated glass further includes: a polyethylene terephthalate layer disposed between the fabric layer and the glass layer, the thickness of the polyethylene terephthalate layer being greater than or equal to 25 μm and less than or equal to 100 μm; and a first adhesive layer disposed between the glass layer and the polyethylene terephthalate layer, the first adhesive layer including one or a combination of the following: a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, a UV (Ultraviolet) adhesive layer, and a hot melt adhesive layer.

[0029] In this technical solution, the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) layer provides additional physical protection for the glass layer, preventing damage from minor scratches, impacts, and other external factors. If the glass breaks due to a larger impact, the PET film helps limit the scattering of fragments, reducing the risk of injury. The thickness of the PET layer is greater than or equal to 25 μm and less than or equal to 100 μm. Optionally, the thickness is greater than or equal to 50 μm and less than or equal to 100 μm, for example, 70 μm or 80 μm. By limiting the thickness of the PET layer, the physical properties of the glass layer can be further guaranteed. Furthermore, the PET layer and the glass layer are connected by a first adhesive layer, which is more efficient than conventional methods of coating the glass surface.

[0030] The second aspect of this application provides a panel comprising: coated glass as described in any of the first aspects of this utility model. Since the panel provided by this application comprises coated glass as described in any of the first aspects of this application, it possesses all the beneficial effects of the coated glass described in any of the first aspects of this application.

[0031] The third aspect of this application provides a household appliance, including: coated glass as described in any of the first aspects of this application, or a panel including the second aspect of this application. Since the household appliance provided by this application includes coated glass as described in any of the first aspects of this application, or a panel including the second aspect of this application, it possesses all the beneficial effects of the coated glass described in any of the first aspects of this application.

The surface of the decorative layer 242 away from the fabric layer 244 is provided with a concave-convex structure 2422, which is used to form a textured pattern.

[0044] The coated glass 2 provided by this utility model includes a glass layer 27, a fabric layer 244, and a decorative layer 242. The fabric layer 244 is disposed on one side of the glass layer 27; the decorative layer 242 is disposed on the side of the fabric layer 244 away from the glass layer 27. The surface of the decorative layer 242 away from the fabric layer 244 is provided with a concave-convex structure 2422, which is used to form a textured pattern. By providing the fabric layer 244, this utility model can provide additional support for the decorative layer 242, avoiding the problem of low stability caused by grooves on the surface of the decorative layer 242. Since the fabric itself has a certain mechanical strength, it can help maintain the overall shape of the decorative layer 242, especially reducing the possibility of deformation when subjected to external forces.

[0045] In some technical solutions, optionally, the ratio of the thickness of the fabric layer 244 to the thickness of the decorative layer 242 is greater than or equal to 1 / 5 and less than or equal to 1 / 2. By limiting the thickness of the fabric layer 244, this can prevent the fabric layer 244 from being too thick and affecting the overall imitation effect. Optionally, the ratio of the thickness of the fabric layer 244 to the thickness of the decorative layer 242 is equal to 1 / 3.

[0046] In some technical solutions, the decorative layer 242 may optionally include a faux leather layer.

[0047] In this technical solution, the decorative layer 242 includes a leather-like layer, which gives the coated glass 2 a leather-like appearance, thereby improving the aesthetics of the coated glass 2. Of course, depending on actual needs, the decorative layer 242 can also be made directly from a leather layer, which would achieve an even better effect.

[0048] In some technical solutions, the imitation leather layer may optionally include one or a combination of the following: a polyurethane resin layer, a polyvinyl chloride resin layer, and an acrylic resin layer.

[0049] In this technical solution, the polyurethane resin layer, polyvinyl chloride resin layer, and acrylic resin layer can all serve as imitation leather layers with leather texture and appearance, thereby enabling the coated glass 2 to have the appearance of leather.

[0050] In some technical solutions, the concave-convex structure 2422 optionally includes a plurality of groove structures 2424, at least two of the groove structures 2424 having different depths.

[0051] In this technical solution, the groove structure 2424 has varying depths. By combining textures of different depths, it imitates different types of leather (such as cowhide and sheepskin), resulting in a more realistic imitation effect. Optionally, the groove structure 2424 also has varying widths, combining coarse and fine textures to diversify the imitation effect.

[0052] In some technical solutions, optionally, the depth of the groove structure 2424 is greater than or equal to 10 μm and less than or equal to 50 μm.

[0053] In this technical solution, the depth of the groove structure 2424 is greater than or equal to 10 μm and less than or equal to 50 μm. Optionally, it is greater than or equal to 20 μm and less than or equal to 30 μm, for example, 20 μm or 30 μm. If the depth of the groove structure 2424 is too shallow, the texture effect is not obvious; if it is too deep, it affects the strength of the decorative layer 242.

[0054] In some technical solutions, the groove structure 2424 may optionally be square, circular, or polygonal in shape.

[0055] In some technical solutions, optionally, the ratio of the depth of the groove structure 2424 to the thickness of the decorative layer 242 is greater than or equal to 1 / 10 and less than or equal to 1 / 5.

[0056] In this technical solution, controlling the ratio of the depth of the groove structure 2424 to the thickness of the decorative layer 242 ensures that the decorative layer 242 has high strength and improves the texture effect. Optionally, the ratio of the depth of the groove structure 2424 to the thickness of the decorative layer 242 is equal to 1 / 5.

[0057] In some technical solutions, the coated glass 2 may optionally include an antibacterial coating 22 disposed on the side of the decorative layer 242 away from the glass layer 27.

[0058] In some technical solutions, the antibacterial coating 22 may optionally include one or a combination of the following: quaternary ammonium salt compounds, zinc-containing compounds, silver nanoparticles, and essential oil extracts.

[0059] In this technical solution, an antibacterial coating 22 is provided on the side of the decorative layer 242 away from the glass layer 27, which can improve the antibacterial effect of the coated glass 2 and thus increase its service life.

[0060] In some technical solutions, the coated glass 2 may optionally include a touch coating 21 disposed on the side of the decorative layer 242 away from the glass layer 27. Optionally, it may be disposed on the side of the antibacterial coating 22 away from the glass layer 27.

[0061] In some technical solutions, the touch coating 21 may optionally include a silicon-containing coating and / or a fluorine-containing coating.

[0062] In this technical solution, the silicon-containing coating and / or fluorine-containing coating endow the glass with anti-fouling, fingerprint-resistant, and strong hydrophobic properties.

[0063] In some technical solutions, optionally, the coated glass 2 further includes: a polyethylene terephthalate layer 25 disposed between the fabric layer 244 and the glass layer 27, the thickness of the polyethylene terephthalate layer 25 being greater than or equal to 25 μm and less than or equal to 100 μm; and a first adhesive layer 26 disposed between the glass layer 27 and the polyethylene terephthalate layer 25, the first adhesive layer 26 including one or a combination of the following: a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, a UV adhesive layer, and a hot melt adhesive layer.

[0064] In this technical solution, the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) layer 25 provides additional physical protection for the glass layer 27, preventing damage to the glass from minor scratches, impacts, and other external factors. If the glass breaks due to a larger impact, the PET film layer helps limit the scattering of fragments, reducing the risk of injury. The thickness of the PET layer 25 is greater than or equal to 25 μm and less than or equal to 100 μm. Optionally, the thickness is greater than or equal to 50 μm and less than or equal to 100 μm, for example, 70 μm or 80 μm.

Furthermore, the PET layer 25 and the glass layer 27 are connected by a first adhesive layer 26, which is more efficient than conventional methods of coating the glass surface.

[0065] like Figure 4 As shown, the second aspect of this application provides a panel 3, including: a coated glass 2 as described in any of the first aspects of this utility model. Since the panel 3 provided by this application includes the coated glass 2 as described in any of the first aspects of this application, it possesses all the beneficial effects of the coated glass 2 described in any of the first aspects of this application.

[0066] like Figure 5 As shown, the third aspect of this application provides a household appliance 1, including: a coated glass 2 as described in any of the first aspects of this utility model, or a panel 3 as described in the second aspect of this application. Since the household appliance 1 provided by this application includes the coated glass 2 as described in any of the first aspects of this application, or the panel 3 as described in the second aspect of this application, it possesses all the beneficial effects of the coated glass 2 as described in any of the first aspects of this application.

[0067] Another embodiment of this utility model provides a coated glass. By adding a textured layer to the film material, the film material has a leather-like texture. Then, the film material is applied to the front of the glass substrate to enrich the appearance of the coated glass. It has the advantages of simple processing, high efficiency, low cost, and rich appearance. The specific structure is as follows:

[0068] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the structure of a coated glass with a natural texture includes: a skin-feel coating (i.e., a touch coating 21), a functional coating (i.e., an antibacterial coating 22), a patterned layer 23, a dry layer 24, a PET film layer (i.e., a polyethylene terephthalate layer 25), an adhesive layer (i.e., a first adhesive layer 26), and a glass substrate (i.e., a glass layer 27).

[0069] Skin-feel coating is a layer of skin-feel material applied to the surface of the material to give it a skin-feel effect.

[0070] Functional coatings refer to the application of a functional coating onto the surface of a composite film, giving the material surface functions such as scratch resistance, wear resistance, antibacterial and mildew resistance, and stain resistance.

[0071] The pattern layer 23 can form various textures, such as leather texture and wood grain, which are formed by the concave and convex structure 2422 of this application.

[0072] The dry-process layer 24 is a leather manufacturing process that involves coating a layer of polyurethane resin onto release paper as the leather's surface layer, followed by another layer as an intermediate layer. Furthermore, if the dry-process layer is produced using a solvent-free process, a solvent-free material composed of a mixture of isocyanate and polyol is also coated, and then a fabric layer 244 is applied as the leather surface layer. After peeling it off from the release paper, a decorative layer 242 with a leather texture is obtained. In other words, the decorative layer 242 and the fabric layer 244 together constitute the dry-process layer 24.

[0073] The thickness of the PET film is 25μm-100μm.

[0074] The adhesive layer can be pressure-sensitive adhesive, UV adhesive, hot melt adhesive, etc., and can be applied to the surface of the substrate or film by roller coating, spraying, or brushing.

[0075] The composite film is coated with UV adhesive, hot melt adhesive, etc. between itself and the glass. The coating is applied to the substrate surface by roller coating, spraying, or brushing, which is consistent with the design concept of this patent.

[0076] In addition, some glass bricks that imitate natural stone have appeared on the market. They usually print stone patterns directly onto the glass bricks to give them a stone texture effect. However, these glass bricks are still very different from natural stone and cannot achieve the texture effect of natural stone. Their decorative properties and quality are poor. The solution proposed in this application is still applicable to the texture effect of natural stone.
