METHOD FOR OVER-MOULDING A GLAZING,SEALING JOINTS AND A MOULD FOR CARRYING OUT SAID METHOD

摘要

The procedure, especially for use on the edges of curved glass panels (1) fitted to motor vehicles by the injection of plastic or reactive materials, consists of placing a glass panel between the two components (2, 3) of a mould that form a moulding cavity (5) delimited by sealing joints (6, 9) before injecting the overmoulded material and removing the panel from the mould after hardening or polymerisation. The sealing joints are in the form of strips inserted in grooves (8) in the mould components and held in place by friction, interlocking surfaces or adhesive; they have a Young modulus of 50 - 300 MPa and a breaking strain of at least 10 MPa.
