Abstract

A flexible edge seal is provided for a vacuum insulating glazing unit having a first, glass pane and a second glass pane spaced-apart from the first. The edge seal comprises a seal member formed of a hermetically bondable material and having a first end, a second end and a center section disposed therebetween. The first end is hermetically bondable to a first glass pane. The second end is hermetically bondable to a second glass pane. The center section comprises a plurality of convolutes.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS received by the International Bureau on 3 November 2010 (03.11.2010).
1 , A flexible edge seal for a vacuum insulating glazing unit, the vacuum insulating glazing unit having a first glass pane and a second glass pane, the second glass pane being spaced-apart from the first glass pane, and each of the first and second glass panes having an inner surface facing towards the other glass pane and an outer surface facing away from the other glass pane, the edge seal comprising; a seal member formed of a bondable material and having a first end, a second end and a center section disposed therebetween; the first end being adapted to form a first bonding surface bondable to an outer surface of a first glass pane; the second end being adapted to form a second bonding surface bondable to an inner surface of a second glass pane; and the center section comprising, when viewed in side cross section, a plurality of convolutes, wherein each convolute includes a convolute bend and a straight section,
2. A vacuum insulating glazing unit comprising: a first glass pane; a second glass pane spaced-apart from the first glass pane, each of the first and second glass panes having an inner surface facing towards the other glass pane and an outer surface facing away from the other glass pane; an edge seal including a seal member formed of a bondable material and having a first end, a second end and a center section disposed therebetween; the first end having a first bonding surface bonded to the outer surface of the first glass pane; the second end having a second bonding surface bonded to the inner surface of the second glass pane; and the center section comprising, when viewed in side cross section, a plurality of convolutes, wherein each convolute includes a convolute bend and a straight section.
3. The flexible edge seal of Claim 1, wherein the straight sections of the convolutes are oriented at an angle within a range of plus-or-minus 30 degrees from a line perpendicular to the inner surface of the second glass pane.
4. The flexible edge seal of Claim 1, wherein the convolute bends of the convolutes have a radius within the range from about 0.050 inches to about 0:400 inches.
5. The flexible edge seal of Claim 4, wherein the convolute bends have a radius of about 0.125 inches and the overall (peak-to-peak) height of the convolutes is about 0.500 inches.
6. The flexible edge seal of Claim 1, wherein at least one of the first and second end sections is tapered in thickness at an angle within the range from about 2 degrees to about 10 degrees.
7. The flexible edge seal of Claim 1, wherein the seal member is formed from a thin metal material that this not self-supporting, and the flexible edge seal further comprises a support element disposed between the seat member and at least one of the glass panes, the support element also having a plurality of convolutes formed thereon, and the support element serving to support the seal member when a differential pressure is applied across the seal member.
8. The flexible edge seal of Claim 7, further comprising a stand-off assembly including: an anchor member positioned between the seal member and at least one of the glass panes; a filament connected to the anchor member; and a plurality of stand-off elements attached to the filament; wherein the filaments and stand-off elements may be disposed in (he space between the first and second glass panes when the seal member is attached to the first and second glass panes.
9. The vacuum insulating glazing unit of Claim 2, wherein the straight sections of the convolutes are oriented at an angle within a range of plus-or-minus 30 degrees from a line perpendicular to the inner surface of the second glass pane.
10. The vacuum insulating glazing unit of Claim 2, wherein the convolute bends of the convolυtes have a radius within the range from about 0.050 inches to about 0.400 inches.
11. The vacuum insulating glazing unit of Claim 10, wherein the convolute bends have a radius of about 0.125 inches and the overall (peak-to-peak) height of the convolutes is about O.S00 inches.
12. The vacuum insulating glazing unit of Claim 2, wherein at least one of the first and second end sections is tapered in thickness at an angle within the range from about 2 degrees to about 10 degrees.
13. The vacuum insulating glazing unit of Claim 2, wherein the seal member is formed from a thin metal material that this not self-supporting, and the flexible edge seal further comprises a support element disposed between the seal member and at least one of the glass panes, the support element also having a plurality of convolutes formed thereon, and the support element serving to support the seal member when a differential pressure is applied across the seal member.
14. The vacuum insulating glazing unit of Claim 13, further comprising a stand-off assembly including: an anchor member positioned between the seal member and at least one of the glass panes; a filament connected to the anchor member; and a plurality of stand-off elements attached to the filament; wherein the filaments and stand-off elements may be disposed in the space between the first and second glass panes when the seal member is attached to the first and second glass panes.
