METHOD AND DEVICE FOR OVERMOULDING A GLASS ELEMENT USING A SEAM PORTION INCLUDING AN INSERT, GLASS PANEL AND INSERT FOR SAID METHOD

摘要

The invention relates to a method for overmoulding at least one seam portion (J) onto a peripheral part of a glass element (V), said seam including at least one insert (1) having an overmoulded portion comprising a sole plate (2) and a projecting portion (4) oriented along an axis (A) for pre-positioning, positioning and securing the glass element (V) in a bay to be seamed. The method is characterised in that, during injection, the insert is positioned in the moulding cavity using a pin (11) co-operating with a positioning means (5), both of which are located on the overmoulded part such that the face of the sole plate (2) turned towards the glass element includes at least one support foot (6) extending in the direction of the glass element and coming into contact therewith and the opposite face of the sole plate includes a base (3) having a free face which supports the above-mentioned projecting part (4) and which is not covered with the plastic material forming the seam. The invention is also characterised in that, during stripping, the mould is opened and the overmoulded glass panel is removed without the projecting part (4) of the insert (1) coming into contact with the wall of the housing (10).
