A window assembly for buses and other vehicles in which a frameless window pane is mounted on a smaller mounting frame that provides a marginal portion of the window overhanging and concealing the backframe and bus wall, so that a row of such windows can be mounted in edge-to-edge relation for a streamlined "all glass" look. The mounting frame is Z-shaped in cross-section and joined to the window pane by an adhesive joint formed by double-sided adhesive tape, and the assembly has an egress frame that is hinged along the top to the backframe and secured by quick-release fasteners to the mounting frame. An alternative embodiment has an insulated glass construction in which a laminated pane smaller than the outer window pane is adhesively secured to the inside of the latter by a spacer that seals the insulating air space and supports the laminated pane. The glass mounting frame covers the edges of the laminated pane in the window assembly, and a support gasket is positioned around the laminated pane within the mounting frame to limit displacement of the laminated pane. |
