Background

In low-temperature weather or cold regions, the windshield of the automobile sometimes becomes fogged, which causes inconvenience in driving. Therefore, various methods of removing the fog of the windshield have been proposed. For example, patent document 1 discloses a technique of disposing a bus bar and a heater wire inside a windshield and removing mist by heat release thereof. In addition to automobiles, windows of various vehicles or vehicles such as windows of electric trains may generate mist, and similar bus bars and heater wires may be disposed.

Disclosure of Invention

Technical problem to be solved by the invention

However, the present inventors have found the following problems with respect to the laminated glass. That is, it was found that if the laminated glass is heated by applying a current to the heater wire, objects outside the vehicle appear hidden and hidden when viewed through the laminated glass. The reason for this is that the heat of the heater wire deforms the resin layer around the heater wire, and the refractive index of the intermediate layer changes due to this deformation. Therefore, it is found that this change in refractive index causes a change in the refractive index.

Detailed Description

Next, an embodiment in which the laminated glass of the present invention is applied to a windshield will be described with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1 is a plan view of a windshield according to the present embodiment, and fig. 2 is a sectional view of fig. 1. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the windshield of the present embodiment includes an outer glass sheet 1, an inner glass sheet 2, and an intermediate layer 3 disposed between these glass sheets 1, 2. Further, the inner glass plate 2 has cutout portions 21 and 22 formed at the upper end portion and the lower end portion thereof, respectively, and the connectors 41 and 42 extending from the intermediate layer 3 are exposed at the cutout portions 21 and 22, respectively. Next, each component will be explained.

< 1. summary of laminated glass

< 1-1. glass plate >

Each of the glass plates 1 and 2 is formed in a rectangular shape having a lower side 12 longer than an upper side 11. That is, the upper side 11, the lower side 12, and both sides (the left side 13 and the right side 14) form a trapezoid. As described above, the inner glass plate 2 has arc-shaped notches formed at the upper and lower ends thereof. Hereinafter, the notch formed in the upper end portion of the inner glass plate 2 is referred to as a first notch 21, and the notch formed in the lower end portion is referred to as a second notch 22. The glass plates 11 and 12 may be made of a known glass plate, or may be made of heat absorbing glass, ordinary transparent glass, green glass, or UV green glass. However, these glass plates 11, 12 must be able to achieve a visible light transmittance that meets the safety standards of the countries in which automobiles are used. For example, adjustment may be made such that necessary solar absorptance is ensured by the outer glass plate 11 and visible light transmittance satisfies safety standards by the inner glass plate 12. Examples of the compositions of the transparent glass, the heat absorbing glass and the soda lime glass are shown below.

(transparent glass)

SiO2: 70 to 73 mass%

Al2O3: 0.6 to 2.4% by mass

CaO: 7 to 12% by mass

MgO: 1.0 to 4.5% by mass

R2O: 13 to 15 mass% (R is an alkali metal)

Conversion to Fe2O3Total iron oxide (T-Fe)2O3): 0.08 to 0.14% by mass

(Heat absorbing glass)

The composition of the heat absorbing glass is formed, for example, as follows: conversion to Fe based on the composition of the transparent glass2O3Total iron oxide (T-Fe)2O3) In a ratio of 0.4 to 1.3 mass%, CeO2The ratio of (B) is 0 to 2 mass%, TiO2The ratio of (A) is 0 to 0.5 mass%, and the skeleton component (mainly SiO) of the glass2And Al2O3) Reduction of T-Fe2O3、CeO2And TiO2The amount of increase of (c).

(soda-lime glass)

SiO2: 65 to 80 mass%

Al2O3: 0 to 5% by mass

CaO: 5 to 15% by mass

MgO: 2 mass% or more

NaO: 10 to 18% by mass

K2O: 0 to 5% by mass

MgO + CaO: 5 to 15% by mass

Na2O+K2O: 10 to 20% by mass

SO3: 0.05 to 0.3 mass%

B2O3: 0 to 5% by mass

Conversion to Fe2O3Total iron oxide (T-Fe)2O3): 0.02 to 0.03 mass%

As described above, each of the glass plates 1 and 2 is formed in a rectangular shape, and the ratio of the length of the upper side 11 to the length of the lower side 12 may be set to 1: 1.04 to 1: 1.5, for example. For example, when the upper side is 1200mm, the lower side may be 1250 to 1800 mm. Specifically, the upper side may be 1195mm, and the lower side may be 1435 mm. The ratio described above is a ratio on a two-dimensional plane when the windshield is projected from the front.

That is, although fig. 1 illustrates an example in which the lower side 12 is long, the present invention may be applied to a windshield in which the upper side 11 is long. For example, when the upper side of the windshield of the single-person small vehicle is 500mm, the lower side may be 350 to 450 mm. Specifically, the upper side may be 500mm, and the lower side may be 425 mm.

The thickness of the laminated glass of the present embodiment is not particularly limited, and from the viewpoint of weight reduction, the total thickness of the outer glass plate 1 and the inner glass plate 2 is preferably 2.4 to 4.6mm, more preferably 2.6 to 3.4mm, and particularly preferably 2.7 to 3.2 mm. In this way, since it is necessary to reduce the total thickness of the outer glass plate 1 and the inner glass plate 2 in order to reduce the weight, the thickness of each glass plate is not particularly limited, and for example, the thicknesses of the outer glass plate 11 and the inner glass plate 12 may be determined as follows.

The outer glass sheet 1 is mainly required to have durability and impact resistance against external disturbances, and for example, when the laminated glass is used as a windshield of an automobile, impact resistance against flying objects such as small stones is required. On the other hand, the larger the thickness, the larger the weight, which is not preferable. From this viewpoint, the thickness of the outer glass plate 1 is preferably 1.0 to 3.0mm, and more preferably 1.6 to 2.3 mm. The thickness used can be determined by the application of the glass.

The thickness of the inner glass plate 2 may be substantially the same as that of the outer glass plate 1, but may be smaller than that of the outer glass plate 11, for example, for the purpose of reducing the weight of the laminated glass. Specifically, the glass strength is preferably 0.6 to 2.0mm, more preferably 0.8 to 1.8mm, and particularly preferably 0.8 to 1.6 mm. Further, it is preferably 0.8 to 1.3 mm. The thickness of the inner glass plate 2 may be determined according to the intended use of the glass.

When the heater wire 6 included in the intermediate layer 3 described later is disposed at the center in the thickness direction of the intermediate layer 3, the thicknesses 1 and 2 of the two glass plates may be different from each other. Which glass plate is thickened depends on the main purpose of the heating wire 6.

The outer glass plate 1 and the inner glass plate 2 of the present embodiment may have a curved shape. However, when the glass plates 1 and 2 have a curved shape, the sound insulation performance is reduced when the overlapping amount is increased. The overlap amount is an amount indicating the degree of curvature of the glass plate, and when a straight line L connecting the center of the upper edge and the center of the lower edge of the glass plate is set, the maximum distance of the distances between the straight line L and the glass plate is defined as the overlap amount D.

It is also found that the Sound Transmission Loss (STL: Sound Transmission Loss) is not significantly different in the curved glass plate within the range of the overlapping amount of 30 to 38mm, but the Sound Transmission Loss is reduced in the frequency band of 4000Hz or less as compared with the flat glass plate. Therefore, in the case of manufacturing a curved glass plate, the amount of overlap is preferably small. Specifically, the overlapping amount is preferably less than 30mm, more preferably less than 25mm, and particularly preferably less than 20 mm.

Here, an example of a method for measuring the thickness of a glass sheet when the glass sheet is bent will be described. First, the measurement positions are two positions above and below a center line extending vertically from the center of the glass plate in the lateral direction. The measuring instrument is not particularly limited, and for example, a thickness gauge such as SM-112 manufactured by TECLOCK Corporation can be used. In the measurement, the glass plate was placed so that the curved surface was on the flat surface, and the end of the glass plate was sandwiched between the thickness gauges.

< 1-2. intermediate layer >

Next, the intermediate layer 3 will be explained. The intermediate layer 3 is composed of three layers including a heat generating layer 31 and a pair of adhesive layers 32 and 33 sandwiching the heat generating layer 31. Hereinafter, the adhesive layer disposed on the outer glass plate 1 side is referred to as a first adhesive layer 32, and the adhesive layer disposed on the inner glass plate 2 side is referred to as a second adhesive layer 33.

As will be described in detail later, in the present embodiment, in order to prevent the occurrence of noise when the windshield glass is heated by the heater wire 6, the amount of heat generation of the heater wire 6, the line width, the pitch, and other dimensions are set. First, this point will be explained. The pitch is not the length of the gap between adjacent heater wires, but the length obtained by adding the line width of the heater wire to the length of the gap between adjacent heater wires.

As a result of the study by the present inventors, it has been found that the temperature of the heater wire 6 and its surroundings needs to be controlled to 60 ℃ or lower in order to prevent the occurrence of a faint appearance when the vehicle is viewed through the windshield. Therefore, the amount of heat generated by the heater wire 6 needs to be reduced. Here, the calorific value can be calculated by the following formula (1). Further, the relationship between the resistance of the heater wire 6 and the length and the sectional area of the heater wire 6 is as shown in formula (2).

W=IV=RI2=V2/R (1)

R=ρ(L/A) (2)

Wherein, W: power, E: voltage, I: current, R: resistance, L: length, A: sectional area, ρ: resistivity of

Therefore, as is clear from the above expressions (1) and (2), in order to reduce the amount of heat generation, there are strategies such as increasing the resistance R, extending the length L of the heater wire 6, increasing the cross-sectional area a or the line width of the heater wire 6, and increasing the resistivity ρ. On the other hand, when the amount of heat generation of each heater wire 6 is reduced, the number of heater wires 6 needs to be increased in order to maintain the amount of heat generation of the entire windshield glass. Further, when the number of the heater wires 6 is increased, the interval between the adjacent heater wires 6 becomes smaller. The respective members constituting the intermediate layer 3 are explained in view of the above.

< 1-2-1. heat-generating layer >

First, the heat generating layer 31 will be explained. The heat generating layer 31 has: a sheet-like base 311, a first bus bar 312 and a second bus bar 313 arranged on the base 311; and a plurality of heating wires 6. The plurality of heater wires 6 are connected in parallel with both bus bars 312 and 313 serving as electrodes. The substrate 311 may be formed in a rectangular shape so as to correspond to the glass plates 1 and 2, but is not necessarily the same shape as the glass plates 1 and 2, and may be smaller than the glass plates 1 and 2. For example, as shown in fig. 1, the length between the notch portions 21 and 22 may be shorter in the vertical direction so as not to interfere with the notch portions 21 and 22 of the inner glass plate 2. The length of the base 311 in the lateral direction may be shorter than the width of the glass plates 1 and 2.

The first bus bar 312 is formed to extend along the upper side of the base 311. On the other hand, the second bus bar 313 is formed to extend along the lower side of the base 311, but is formed longer than the first bus bar 312. However, the bus bars 312 and 313 are disposed inside the cutout portions 21 and 22 so as not to be exposed from the cutout portions 21 and 22 when the intermediate layer 3 is sandwiched between the glass plates 1 and 2. The upper and lower widths of the bus bars 312, 313 are preferably 5 to 50mm, and more preferably 10 to 30mm, for example. This is because, when the width of the bus bars 312 and 313 is less than 5mm, a hot spot phenomenon occurs, and heat higher than that of the heater wire may be emitted, and, on the other hand, when the width of the bus bars 312 and 313 is more than 50mm, the field of view may be obstructed by the bus bars 312 and 313. The bus bars 312 and 313 may not be formed along the base 311. That is, the substrate 311 may be curved, not perfectly parallel to the edge thereof.

The plurality of heater wires 314 are formed to extend in the left-right direction so as to connect the two bus bars 312, 313. The plurality of heater wires 314 are arranged substantially in parallel. The heater wires 314 may be formed in various shapes such as a wave shape, in addition to a straight shape. In particular, by forming each heater wire 314 in a sine wave shape, not only can the heat be uniformly distributed, but also the heater wire 314 can be optically prevented from obstructing the view of the windshield. In this case, the amplitude of the sine wave is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, 3mm or more. The crimping rate of the heater wire 6 may be 103 to 150%, for example. The crimping rate is a ratio of an actual length (length along a curve) of the heating wire 6 to a length between both ends of the heating wire 6 on the heat generation layer 31. By setting the crimping rate in this way, L of expression (2) can be increased. As a result, the resistance R increases, and therefore the amount of heat generation decreases, and the occurrence of a flare can be suppressed.

The line width of each heating wire 6 is preferably 3 to 22 μm, more preferably 5 to 20 μm, and particularly preferably 8 to 15 μm. The smaller the width, the less visible it is, and therefore, the smaller the width, the more visible it is suitable for the windshield of the present embodiment. By setting the upper limit value of the line width in this way, the cross-sectional area a of the formula (2) can be limited. As a result, the resistance R increases, and therefore the amount of heat generation decreases, and the occurrence of a flare can be suppressed. The line width is the largest line width in the cross-sectional shape of the heater wire 6. For example, in the case where the cross-sectional shape of the heater wire is a trapezoid, the width of the lower side is a line width; in the case where the cross-sectional shape of the heater wire is circular, the diameter is the wire width. The width of the heating wire 6 can be measured, for example, by setting a microscope such as VHX-200 (manufactured by KEYENCE CORPORATION) to 1000 times. Further, the cross-sectional area of the heater wire 6 is preferably 200 μm2Hereinafter, it is more preferably 150 μm2The particle size is preferably 100 μm2The following.

The pitch between adjacent heater wires 6 is preferably 0.5mm or more and less than 5.0mm, and more preferably 4.0mm or less. Further, it is more preferably 0.5 to 3.5mm, still more preferably 0.5 to 3.0mm, and particularly preferably 1.25 to 3.0 mm. By setting the upper limit value of the pitch in this way, a predetermined amount of heat generation (for example, 400W/m) is required for the entire windshield, for example2) In the case of (2), as described above, even if the heat generation amount W of each heater wire 6 is reduced, the pitch can be reduced to increase the number of heater wires 6, so that the heat generation amount of the entire windshield can be prevented from being reduced. On the other hand, the lower limit of the pitch has the following meaning. That is, in the 39 th window glass (window glass) which defines the notification of the safety standards regulations for road transport vehicles, "the window glass is attached, pasted, coated or engraved" and, in order to satisfy the regulations, "it is preferably 1.25mm or more. Further, the heating wire 6 is sometimes formed in a sine wave shape. Further, the positions of the sinusoidal irregularities of the adjacent heater wires 6 may be different from each other, or the pitches of the irregularities may be different from each other. In these cases, the pitch of the heating wires 6 can be determined by counting the number n of the heating wires 6 in a predetermined region. For example, in the case where the predetermined area is a rectangular area with 200mm on one side, if 101 heating wires 6 are arranged in the area, the predetermined area is divided into two or more sectionsThe pitch can be found to be 200/(101-1) ═ 2 mm. The predetermined region is preferably within the test region a defined in JIS R3212. This is because the test area a of JIS R3212 is an area for performing a test such as a see-through strain, and in this area, the necessity of preventing the occurrence of blur is high as the effect of the present application.

The length of the heater wire 6 may be 1000mm or more, for example. Alternatively, 1100mm or more, or 1200mm or more may be used. The resistance of the heater wire 6 is preferably 30 Ω or more, and more preferably 90 Ω or more. By extending the length of the heater wire in this way, the resistance R increases based on the formula (2), so that the amount of heat generation decreases, and the occurrence of a flare can be suppressed.

Here, measurement of the resistance R of the heater wire 6 will be described. The measurement can be performed using a commercially available resistance measuring instrument, and an example thereof is a digital multimeter 73200 series (available from YOKOGAWA). In the measurement, a heater wire to be measured is first selected. Next, one terminal of the resistance measuring instrument was connected to the vicinity of the bus 312 of the heater wire, and the other terminal was connected to the vicinity of the bus 313 of the heater wire. As shown in fig. 1, when the heater wire is sandwiched between the outer glass plate 1 and the inner glass plate 2 and the terminal of the resistance measuring instrument is not connected to the heater wire, the outer glass plate 1 or the inner glass plate 2 is broken to measure the resistance R of the heater wire 6. When the target heater wire and the heater wire adjacent to the target heater wire are connected by a bridge (not shown), the resistance R of the target heater wire is measured after the bridge is cut.

The amount of heat generated per unit length of each heater wire 6 is preferably 2.0W/m or less, more preferably 1.5W/m or less, and particularly preferably 1.0W/m or less when a voltage of 13.5V is applied between the bus bars 312 and 313. More specific ranges include, for example, 1.5W/m to 2.0W/m, 1.35W/m to 1.5W/m, 1.20W/m to 1.35W/m, 1.0W/m to 1.20W/m, 0.8W/m to 1.0W/m, or 0.5W/m to 0.8W/m. Further, using such a heater wire 6, the amount of heat generated per unit area of the windshield glass is increased for effectively melting ice or the likePreferably 400W/m2Above, it is more preferably 500W/m2Above, 600W/m is particularly preferable2The above.

In the above description, the heat generation amount when the voltage of 13.5V is applied is described, but the applied voltage is not limited thereto, and different voltages may be applied to various vehicles such as an automobile, a train, and a ship. For example, a voltage of 400V or less may be applied, and a voltage of 50V or less may be applied. However, when any voltage is applied, the above-described amount of heat generation per unit length or amount of heat generation per unit area (amount of heat generation) is preferable. Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, the applied voltage is set to 13.5V, but the present invention is not limited thereto as described above. That is, the present invention can be applied to the case where a voltage other than 13.5V is applied, including the case described above, and various physical values such as dimensions and electric resistance can be used for the heater wire 6.

In addition, the width of the bus bars 312 and 313 with respect to the line width of the heating wire 6 is preferably equal to or less than 1000 (width of bus bar/line width of heating wire). For example, when the bus bars 312 and 313 have a width of 8mm and the wire width of the heater wire 6 is 10 μm, S is 800. When S is less than or equal to 1000, heat generation can be further generated on the bus bars 312 and 313 side than when the width of the bus bars 312 and 313 is excessively larger than the width of the heater wire 6. This can suppress the heat generation of the heater wire 6 and reduce the heat generation.

Next, the material of the heat generating layer 31 will be described. The base 311 is a transparent film for supporting the bus bars 312 and 313 and the heater wire 6, and the material thereof is not particularly limited, and may be formed of, for example, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene, polymethyl methacrylate, polyvinyl chloride, polyester, polyolefin, polycarbonate, polystyrene, polypropylene, nylon, or the like. Alternatively, the resin may be formed of polyvinyl butyral (PVB), Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA), or the like. The bus bars 312 and 313 and the heater wire 6 may be made of the same material, and may be made of various materials such as copper (or tin-plated copper), gold, aluminum, magnesium, cobalt, tungsten, and silver. Among them, the resistivity of 3.0X 10 is particularly preferably used-8Material less than omega m, silver, copper, goldAnd aluminum. When the resistivity of the heater wire 6 is lowered in this way, the resistance R is decreased based on the formula (2), and therefore the amount of heat generation tends to increase. However, by adjusting the pitch, length, cross-sectional area, and line width of the heater wire 6, the occurrence of the flare can be suppressed.

Next, a method of forming the bus bars 312 and 313 and the heater wire 6 will be described. If the width of the bus bars 312, 313 and the heater wire 6 is 10 μm or more, the conductive material can be directly printed on the glass plates 1, 2. In this case, the glass sheet can be directly heated to form the heater wire, that is, the heating of the interlayer is not required in forming the heater wire 6, so that the deformation of the interlayer can be suppressed, and the occurrence of the see-through deformation can be suppressed. Further, the heater wire may be formed by disposing a previously formed thin wire (a lead wire or the like) on the base 311, and particularly, the heater wire 6 may be formed by patterning the base 311 in order to further reduce the line width of the heater wire 6. The method is not particularly limited, and the film can be formed by various methods such as printing, etching, and transfer. In this case, the bus bars 312 and 313 and the heater wire 6 may be formed separately or may be formed integrally. The term "integrally" means that there is no seam (seamless) between materials and no interface.

Further, both bus bars 312 and 313 are formed on the base 311, and the base 311 for the heater wire 6 is left, and the base 311 is peeled off at portions corresponding to the bus bars 312 and 313. Thereafter, a heater wire may be disposed on the base material between the two bus bars.

Particularly, when etching is employed, the etching can be performed as follows, for example. First, a metal foil is dry-laminated on the substrate 311 with an undercoat layer interposed therebetween. As the metal foil, for example, copper can be used. Then, the metal foil is subjected to chemical etching treatment by photolithography, whereby the base 311 can be integrally patterned with the two bus bars 312 and 313 and the plurality of heater wires 6. In particular, when the line width of the heating wire 6 is reduced (for example, 15 μm or less), a thin metal foil is preferably used, and a thin metal layer (for example, 5 μm or less) may be formed on the base 311 by vapor deposition, sputtering, or the like and then patterned by photolithography. Further, the surface of the heater wire 6, that is, the surface on the inner glass plate 2 side is blackened, whereby the heater wire 6 can be suppressed from being seen from the vehicle interior side. Examples of the material for blackening include copper nitride, copper oxide, nickel nitride, nickel chromium, and the like, and these materials can be used to blacken by an electroplating process.

< 1-2-3. adhesive layer >

The adhesive layers 32 and 33 are sheet-like members for sandwiching the heat generating layer 31 and adhering to the glass plates 1 and 2. The adhesive layers 32 and 33 are formed to have the same size as the glass plates 1 and 2, but the adhesive layers 32 and 32 have notches of the same shape formed at positions corresponding to the notches 21 and 22 of the inner glass plate 2. The adhesive layers 32 and 33 may be formed of various materials, for example, polyvinyl butyral (PVB), Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA), or the like. In particular, a polyvinyl butyral resin is preferable because it has excellent adhesion to each glass plate and also has excellent penetration resistance. Further, a surfactant layer may be provided between the adhesive layers 32 and 33 and the heat generating layer 31. The surfactant can modify the surface of the two layers and improve the adhesion.

< 1-2-4. thickness of intermediate layer >

The total thickness of the intermediate layer 3 is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.3 to 6.0mm, more preferably 0.5 to 4.0mm, and particularly preferably 0.6 to 2.0 mm. The thickness of the base 311 of the heat generating layer 31 is preferably 5 to 200mm, and more preferably 5 to 100 mm. On the other hand, the thickness of each of the adhesive layers 32 and 33 is preferably larger than the thickness of the heat generating layer 31, specifically, preferably 0.05 to 2.0mm, and more preferably 0.05 to 1.0 mm. Further, as will be described in detail later, in consideration of easiness of heat release from the heater wire 6 to the glass plates 1 and 2, the thickness of each of the adhesive layers 32 and 33 is preferably small, and more specifically, preferably 0.05 to 0.4 mm. The thicknesses of the adhesive layers 32 and 33 may be the same or different. In addition, in order to make the second adhesive layer 33 and the base 311 adhere closely, the thickness of the two bus bars 312, 313 and the heater wire 6 sandwiched therebetween is preferably 3 to 20 μm.

The thicknesses of the heat generating layer 31 and the adhesive layers 32 and 33 can be measured, for example, as follows. First, the cross section of the laminated glass was magnified 175 times with a microscope (for example, VH-5500 manufactured by KEYENCE CORPORATION). Then, the thicknesses of the heat generating layer 31 and the adhesive layers 32 and 33 were determined by visual observation and measured. In this case, the number of measurements was set to 5 times to eliminate visual variation, and the average value was defined as the thickness of the heat-generating layer 31 and the adhesive layers 32 and 33.

Further, the thickness of the heat generating layer 31 and the adhesive layers 32 and 33 of the intermediate layer 3 need not be constant over the entire surface, and may be formed into a wedge shape for a laminated glass used for a head-up display, for example. In this case, the thickness of the heat generating layer 31 and the adhesive layers 32 and 33 of the intermediate layer 3 is measured at the lowest point, that is, the lowest edge portion of the laminated glass. In the case of a wedge-shaped intermediate layer 3, the outer glass pane 1 and the inner glass pane 2 are arranged non-parallel, which arrangement is also included in the glass pane according to the invention. That is, the present invention includes the arrangement of the outer glass plate 1 and the inner glass plate 2 when the intermediate layer 3 is used, and the intermediate layer 3 uses the heat generating layer 31 and the adhesive layers 32 and 33 whose thickness increases at a rate of change of 3mm or less per 1m, for example.

< 1-3. connecting piece >

Next, the connector will be explained. The connectors 41 and 42 are used to connect the bus bars 312 and 313 to connection terminals (anode terminals or cathode terminals, not shown), and are formed of a conductive material in a sheet shape. A voltage of more than 12V, for example, a power supply voltage of 13.5V is applied to the connection terminal. Hereinafter, the connector connected to the first bus bar 312 is referred to as a first connector 41, and the connector connected to the second bus bar 313 is referred to as a second connector 42. Since the two connectors 41, 42 have the same structure, the first connector 41 will be mainly described below.

The first connector 41 is formed in a rectangular shape, and is sandwiched between the first bus bar 312 and the second adhesive layer 33. The first bus bar 312 is fixed to the fixing member 5 such as solder. As the fixing material 5, for example, a low melting point solder of 150 ℃. The first connector 41 extends from the first bus bar 312 to the upper end edge of the outer glass plate 1, and is exposed from the first notch 21 formed in the inner glass plate 2. The exposed portion is connected to a connection terminal to which a cable extending to a power supply is connected, by a fixing material such as solder. Thus, the both connectors 41 and 42 do not protrude from the end portions of the both glass plates 1 and 2, and the connection terminals are fixed to the portions exposed from the notch portions 21 and 22 of the inner glass plate 2. Further, since both the connectors 41 and 42 are formed of a thin material, the end portions can be fixed to the bus bar 312 with the fixing material 5 after bending as shown in fig. 2.

< 1-4. Shielding layer >

As shown in fig. 1, a shielding layer 7 is laminated on a dark ceramic such as black at the periphery of the laminated glass. The shielding layer 7 shields a view from the inside or outside of the vehicle, and is laminated along four sides of the laminated glass. Both bus bars 312 and 313 are disposed at positions covered with the shielding layer 7. In the figure, reference numeral 7 denotes an inner edge of the shielding layer 7.

The shielding layer 7 may be formed in various forms such as only the inner surface of the outer glass plate 11, only the inner surface of the inner glass plate 12, or the inner surfaces of the outer glass plate 11 and the inner glass plate 12. The ceramic material may be made of ceramics or various materials, and may have the following composition, for example.

[ Table 1]

A first colored ceramic paste and a second colored ceramic paste
Pigment (I1) Mass% 20
Resin (cellulose resin) Mass% 10
Organic solvent (pine oil) Mass% 10
Glass binder 2 Mass% 65
Viscosity of the oil dPs 150

1, main component: copper oxide, chromium oxide, iron oxide and manganese oxide

2, main components: bismuth borosilicate and zinc borosilicate

The ceramic may be formed by a screen printing method, but may be produced by transferring a transfer film for firing to a glass plate and firing the transferred film. In the case of screen printing, for example, a polyester screen: 355 mesh, coating thickness: 20 μm, tension: 20Nm, blade hardness: 80 degrees, installation angle: 75 °, printing speed: 300mm/s, and dried at 150 ℃ for 10 minutes in a drying furnace to form a ceramic.

The shielding layer 7 may be formed by laminating ceramics or by attaching a shielding film made of dark resin.

<2. method for manufacturing windshield glass

Next, a method for manufacturing a windshield will be described. First, a production line of a glass sheet will be explained.

Here, the molding die will be described in further detail with reference to fig. 4 and 5. Fig. 4 is a side view of an oven through which the forming die passes, and fig. 5 is a plan view of the forming die. As shown in fig. 5, the molding die 800 has a frame-shaped die main body 810 that substantially conforms to the outer shapes of the two glass plates 1 and 2. Since the mold body 810 is formed in a frame shape, an internal space 820 penetrating in the vertical direction is provided inside. Then, the peripheral edge portions of both flat glass plates 1 and 2 are placed on the upper surface of the mold main body 810. Therefore, the glass plates 1 and 2 are heated by a heater (not shown) disposed on the lower side through the internal space 820. Thereby, the glass plates 1 and 2 are softened by heating and bent downward by their own weight. Further, a shield plate 840 for heat insulation may be disposed on the inner peripheral edge of the mold main body 810, whereby the heat reception of the glass sheets 1 and 2 can be adjusted. The heater may be provided not only below but also above the molding die 800.

After the shielding layer 7 is laminated on the outer glass plate 1 and the inner glass plate 2 in a flat plate shape, the outer glass plate 1 and the inner glass plate 2 are stacked and passed through a heating furnace 802 in a state of being supported by the forming mold 800 as shown in fig. 4. When heated to a temperature near the softening point in the heating furnace 802, the glass sheets 1 and 2 are bent downward from the inner side than the peripheral edge by their own weight, and are formed into a curved surface shape. Subsequently, both the glass sheets 1 and 2 are carried from the heating furnace 802 into the annealing furnace 803, and annealing treatment is performed. Thereafter, both the glass sheets 1 and 2 are carried out of the annealing furnace 803 to the outside and cooled.

When the outer glass plate 11 and the inner glass plate 12 are molded as described above, the interlayer 3 is then sandwiched between the outer glass plate 11 and the inner glass plate 12. Specifically, first, the outer glass plate 1, the first adhesive layer 32, the heat generating layer 31, the second adhesive layer 33, and the inner glass plate 2 are laminated in this order. At this time, the surface of the heat generating layer 31 on which the first bus bar 312 and the like are formed faces the second adhesive layer 33. The upper and lower end portions of the heat generating layer 31 are disposed inward of the notches 21 and 22 of the inner glass plate 2. The cut portions of the first and second adhesive layers 32 and 33 are aligned with the cut portions 21 and 22 of the inner glass plate 2. Thereby, the outer glass plate 1 is exposed from the cut portions 21 and 22 of the inner glass plate 2. Subsequently, the connectors 41 and 42 are inserted between the heat generating layer 31 and the second adhesive layer 33 through the notches 21 and 22. At this time, a low melting point solder as the fixing material 5 is applied to the connectors 41 and 42, and the solder is disposed on the bus bars 312 and 313.

The laminate obtained by laminating the two glass plates 1 and 2, the intermediate layer 3 and the connecting members 41 and 42 as described above is put in a rubber bag and pre-bonded at about 70 to 110 ℃ while being evacuated. The method of pre-bonding may be the following method. For example, the laminate is heated at 45 to 65 ℃ in an oven. Then, the laminate is pressed by a roller at 0.45 to 0.55 MPa. Then, the laminate is heated again in an oven at 80 to 105 ℃ and pressed again by a roller at 0.45 to 0.55 MPa. Thus, the pre-bonding is completed.

Then, main bonding is performed. The pre-bonded laminate is subjected to main bonding at 100 to 150 ℃ under 8 to 15 atmospheres in an autoclave, for example. Specifically, for example, the main bonding can be performed under a condition of 135 ℃ at 14 atmospheres. By the above pre-bonding and main bonding, the two adhesive layers 32 and 33 are bonded to the glass plates 1 and 2 with the heat generating layer 31 interposed therebetween. The solder of the connectors 41 and 42 is melted, and the connectors 41 and 42 are fixed to the bus bars 312 and 313. The laminated glass of the present embodiment is manufactured in this manner. Further, a bent windshield may be manufactured by other methods, for example, by press working.

< 3. method for using windshield glass >

The windshield glass configured as described above is attached to the vehicle body, and further, the connection terminals are fixed to the respective connectors 41 and 42. When current is then supplied to each connection terminal, current is applied to the heater wire 6 via the connectors 41 and 42 and the bus bars 312 and 313, and heat is generated. By this heat generation, it is possible to remove the fog on the vehicle interior surface of the windshield or melt the ice on the vehicle exterior surface.

< 4. feature >

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.

(1) The inventors of the present invention have found that, when the laminated glass is heated by applying a voltage to the heater wire 6 and the outside of the vehicle is observed through the laminated glass, objects outside the vehicle are hidden and invisible. For this reason, it was found that the resin layer around the heater wire 6 was deformed by the heat of the heater wire, and the refractive index of the intermediate layer was changed by the deformation. Then, it was found that the change in the refractive index was noticeable.

The inventors of the present invention have also found that such a phenomenon occurs particularly when the temperature of the heating wire 6 and its surroundings exceeds about 60 ℃. Therefore, the inventors of the present invention have found that if a voltage of 13.5V is applied between the bus bars 312 and 313 so that the temperature of the heater wire 6 and its surroundings does not exceed about 60 ℃, the amount of heat generated per unit length of the heater wire 6 is 2.0W/m or less, which can prevent occurrence of blindness. Therefore, in the windshield glass of the present embodiment, when a voltage of 13.5V is applied between the bus bars 312, 313, the amount of heat generated per unit length of each heater wire 6 is 2.0W/m or less, so the temperature of the heater wire 6 and its surroundings can be suppressed to about 60 ℃ or less, and as a result, the appearance of the windshield glass when viewed from the outside of the vehicle can be prevented.

The inventors of the present invention have found that the above-described problem is conspicuously caused particularly when the heater wire 6 is disposed in the vicinity of the center in the thickness direction of the intermediate layer 3. For example, when the heater wire 6 is disposed at a position shifted from the center of the intermediate layer 3 in the thickness direction, the heater wire 6 is close to either of the glass sheets 1 and 2, and heat from the heater wire 6 is easily radiated to the glass sheets 1 and 2. This can reduce the temperature of the heater wire 6 and its surroundings. However, the line width of the heater wire 6 can be further reduced in addition to the development of the above-described techniques such as etching. However, the base 311 of the present embodiment is necessary for etching, and when such a base 311 is used, the base cannot be directly bonded to the glass plates 1 and 2 due to the material, and therefore, the adhesive layers 32 and 33 of the present embodiment are necessary. Thus, the heater wire 6 is disposed away from the glass plates 1 and 2, and the heat generated by the heater wire 6 may not be sufficiently dissipated. Therefore, in the present embodiment, as described above, the temperature of the heater wire 6 and its surroundings is reduced by adjusting the amount of heat generated per unit length of each heater wire 6.

In the present embodiment, the amount of heat generated per unit area of the windshield is 400W/m2The above. This eliminates the fog on the windshield and melts the ice and the like. In order to obtain such performance, it is generally considered to increase the amount of heat generation per unit area. However, in order to increase the amount of heat generation, the amount of heat generation per unit length of each heater wire 6 must be increased, which may cause the above-described problem. In contrast, in the present embodiment, the amount of heat generated per unit length of the heater wire 6 can be reduced while maintaining the amount of heat generated per unit area of the windshield glass. As a countermeasure for this, various studies have been made, for example, to increase the number of the heater wires 6 and shorten the pitch between the heater wires 6. From this viewpoint, in the present embodiment, the pitch between the heater wires 6 is set as described above. Furthermore, the width, length, thickness, material, etc. of the heating wire 6 can also be adjusted.

The setting of the heater wire 6 is exemplified below.

For example, the heat generation area of the windshield glass is set to be 958mm long and 1180mm wide, a voltage of 13.5V is applied between the bus bars 312 and 313, and the amount of heat generated per unit area is set to be 500W/m2This was investigated. First, the heating wire 6 is set as follows.

In such setting, the amount of heat generation per unit area can be maintained at 500W/m2And the distance between the heating wires can be changed within 1.0-6.0 mm. In this case, for example, the number of the heater wires 6, the resistance per 1 heater wire, the current, the power, and the amount of heat generated per unit length may be set as in the following schemes 1 to 8 (other settings are shown in table 2). Wherein, schemes 7 and 8 are due to the additionThe heat generation amount per unit length of the filament exceeds 2W/m, and therefore, it is not suitable.

Based on the settings in table 2, the lengths of the heater wires 6 can be changed according to the following embodiments 1 to 6. When extending the length of the heating wire 6, the heating wire 6 needs to be provided with a bent portion (Crimp, curl) because the distance between the two busbars is already determined. Thus, when the bent portion is provided, the length of the heater wire 6 is equal to or more than the distance between the first busbar 312 and the second busbar 313.

(2) Since the two bus bars 312, 313 and the heating wire 6 are formed of the same material, the linear expansion coefficients of the two bus bars 312, 313 and the heating wire 6 are the same. This has the following advantages. In the case where the two bus bars 312, 313 and the heater wire 6 are formed of different materials, the linear expansion coefficients are different, and therefore, for example, in the case where these members are separately manufactured and fixed, there is a possibility that the heater wire is peeled off from the bus bars due to a severe environmental change such as a heat cycle test or the like, or two glass plates constituting the laminated glass are separated from each other due to this, but such a problem can be prevented when the two bus bars 312, 313 and the heater wire 6 are formed of the same material as in the present embodiment.

(3) Since the bus bars 312 and 313 and the heater wire 6 are integrally formed, contact failure between the bus bars and the heater wire can be prevented, and heat generation failure can be prevented. The heat generation failure will be described in detail below. In general, when a glass plate is heated for antifogging, it is necessary to control the current value so that the upper limit of the heating temperature reaches, for example, 70 to 80 ℃ in order to prevent the glass from cracking. On the other hand, if local heat generation is caused by the contact resistance as described above, it is necessary to control the current value using the portion as the upper limit value of the heating temperature. As a result, there is a problem that the heating of the entire heater wire cannot be controlled sufficiently. However, according to the above configuration, local heat generation can be prevented, and therefore, the heater wire can be controlled to generate heat sufficiently as a whole.

(4) The heating layer 31 on which the two bus bars 312 and 313 and the heater wire 6 are arranged is sandwiched between the adhesive layers 32 and 33 and arranged between the two glass plates 1 and 2. Therefore, the heat generating layer 31 can be reliably fixed to the glass plates 1 and 2. In addition, by covering the two bus bars 312, 313 and the heater wire 6 with the second adhesive layer 33, they can be prevented from contacting the glass plate. As a result, cracks and the like of the glass sheet can be prevented.

(5) In the above embodiment, the bus bars 312 and 313 are connected to the external terminals by using the two connectors 41 and 42, but instead of the connectors, for example, bus bars having a wide width may be prepared, and unnecessary portions of the bus bars may be cut off and then exposed partially from the notches 21 and 22. However, in this case, it is also considered that local heat generation occurs at the corner of the cut bus bar. In contrast, in the present embodiment, since the individual connectors 41 and 42 are fixed to the bus bars 312 and 313, such local heat generation can be prevented.

(6) In the present embodiment, both bus bars 312 and 313 are disposed along the upper side 11 and the lower side 12 of the glass plates 1 and 2, respectively. Therefore, both bus bars 312 and 313 can be hidden by the shielding layer 7, and the appearance can be improved.

< 5. modification

While one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. The following modifications can be combined as appropriate.

<5.1>

In each of the above embodiments, the bus bars 312 and 313 are formed so as to be hidden by the shielding layer 7, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and may not be hidden by the shielding layer 7. Further, the shielding layer 7 is not necessarily provided.

<5.2>

In the above embodiment, the intermediate layer 3 is formed of the total of 3 layers of the heat generating layer 31 and the pair of adhesive layers 32 and 33, but is not limited thereto. That is, it is sufficient if the intermediate layer 3 includes at least two bus bars 312, 313 and the heating wire 6. For example, as shown in fig. 6, the heater wire 6 may be disposed on the surface of the base material 311 on the outer glass plate 1 side. Alternatively, as shown in fig. 7, the heater wire 6 may be disposed between the adhesive layers 32 and 33 without providing the base material 311 on the heat generating layer 31.

<5.3>

The heat generating layer 31 may be formed in various shapes. For example, a sheet-like heat generating layer 31 having both bus bars 312 and 313 and a heater wire 6 formed on a base 311 may be prepared in advance, cut appropriately into an appropriate shape, and then placed between the glass plates 1 and 2. Therefore, for example, if the edges of the glass plates 1 and 2 are bent, the edge of the base 311 may be bent accordingly. Further, the heat generating layer 31 does not need to be completely matched with the shape of the glass plates 1 and 2, and can be disposed only in a portion where the antifogging effect is desired, and therefore, can be formed in various shapes such as a shape smaller than the glass plates 1 and 2. The glass plates 1 and 2 may be formed in various shapes other than a perfect rectangle.

In the above embodiment, the two bus bars 312 and 313 and the heater wire 6 are disposed on the base 311, but at least the heater wire 6 may be disposed. Therefore, for example, both bus bars 312 and 313 may be disposed between both adhesive layers 32 and 33.

<5.4-1>

The structure of the heater wire 6 is not particularly limited, and various forms can be made. This point will be described with reference to fig. 8. In the example of fig. 8, since the bus bars and the heater wires are mainly different from those of the above-described embodiment, only different portions will be described below, and the same components will be denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted.

As shown in fig. 8, in this example, the plurality of heater wires 6 are arranged in parallel so as to connect the two bus bars 312 and 313. Each heater wire 6 is composed of three portions and two folded portions. Namely, comprising: a first portion 61 extending from the first bus bar 312 to a position close to the second bus bar 313, a second portion 62 extending upward from a lower end of the first portion 61 via a first folded portion 64 to a position close to the first bus bar 312, and a third portion 63 extending downward from an upper end of the second portion 62 via a second folded portion 65 and connected to the second bus bar 313. The plurality of heater wires 6 formed in this way are arranged in parallel with a predetermined interval in the left-right direction of both bus bars 312 and 313.

In the above example, the respective heater wires 6 can be extended by providing the folded portions 64 and 65 for the respective heater wires. This can reduce the amount of heat generated by each heater wire 6.

The form of the heater wire 6 is not particularly limited, and in the present embodiment, the two folded portions 64 and 65 are provided, but three or more folded portions may be provided to further extend the length of the heater wire 6 extending between the two bus bars 212 and 213.

<5.4-2>

Further, in order to extend each heater wire 6, a relay bus as shown in fig. 9 may be provided. This point will be explained in detail.

As shown in fig. 9, in the windshield, the first bus bar 312 is disposed on the left side of the lower side 12 of each of the glass plates 1 and 2, and the second bus bar 313 is disposed along the right side of the lower side 12. In addition, a first relay bus bar 71 having a belt shape is provided on the left side of the upper side 11 of the glass plates 1, 2, a second relay bus bar 72 having a belt shape is provided between the first and second bus bars 312, 313 on the lower side 12, and a third relay bus bar 73 having a belt shape is provided on the right side of the upper side 11 of the glass plates 1, 2. First relay bus bar 71 is disposed at a position facing first bus bar 312 and second relay bus bar 72, and is formed to have a length substantially equal to a length from a left end of first bus bar 312 to a vicinity of a center of second relay bus bar 72. The third relay bus bar 73 is disposed at a position facing the second relay bus bar 72 and the second bus bar 313, and is formed to have a length substantially equal to a length from the left end of the first bus bar 312 to the vicinity of the center of the second relay bus bar 72.

The plurality of heating wires 6 are composed of four parts. That is, the plurality of heater wires 6 are respectively configured by a first portion 601 connecting the first bus bar 312 and the first relay bus bar 71, a second portion 602 connecting the first relay bus bar 71 and the second relay bus bar 72, a third portion 603 connecting the second relay bus bar 72 and the third relay bus bar 73, and a fourth portion 604 connecting the third relay bus bar 73 and the second bus bar 313. The plurality of first portions 601 extend upward from the first bus bar 312 substantially in parallel to each other, and are connected to the left half of the first relay bus bar 71. The plurality of second portions 602 extend substantially parallel downward from the right half of the first relay bus bar 71, and are connected to the left half of the second relay bus bar 72. The third portions 603 extend upward from the left half of the second relay bus 72 substantially in parallel to each other, and are connected to the third relay bus 73. The fourth portions 604 extend substantially downward from the right half of the third relay bus bar 73, and are connected to the second bus bar 213.

In the above example, three relay bus bars 71 to 73 are provided between the first bus bar 312 and the second bus bar 313, and the first bus bar 312 and the second bus bar 313 are connected via the plurality of heater wires 6 arranged in parallel. Therefore, the length of the heating wire 6 between the first bus bar 312 and the second bus bar 313 can be extended. This can reduce the amount of heat generated by each heater wire 6.

In this example, both bus bars 312 and 313 are arranged along the lower side 12, but may be arranged along the upper side 11. That is, the two bus bars 312 and 313 and the three relay bus bars 71 to 73 are arranged at vertically opposite positions from fig. 9. The number of the relay bus bars is not particularly limited, and two, or four or more relay bus bars may be provided as long as both end portions of the heater wire are connected to the first bus bar 312 and the second bus bar 313 via all the relay bus bars.

<5.5>

In the above embodiment, the heat is applied to the windshield by the heating wire to melt the ice or the like, but the ice may be melted by the bus bar. This point will be described with reference to fig. 10.

As shown in fig. 10, in this example, the first bus bar is formed long. That is, the first bus bar 312 includes: a linear first portion 312a along the upper side 11, and a pair of linear second portion 312b, third portion 312c, fourth portion 312d, and fifth portion 312e extending from both ends of the first portion 312 a. The second portion 312b extends from the end of the first portion 312a along the side edges 13, 14 of the glass sheets 1, 2 to the vicinity of the lower edge 12. The third portion 312c extends from the lower end of the second portion 312b toward the center of the glass sheets 1 and 2 in the horizontal direction. A fourth portion 312d extending downward is connected to an end of the third portion 312c, and a fifth portion 312e extending horizontally from a lower end of the fourth portion 312d to the vicinity of the side edges 13 and 14 is connected thereto.

On the other hand, the second bus bar 313 is disposed above the third portion 312c of the first bus bar, and a plurality of heater wires 6 are disposed between the first portion 312a of the first bus bar 312 and the second bus bar 313.

Further, the connector 43 is attached to both ends of the first bus bar, that is, the end of the fifth portion, and extends to the lower side of the inner glass plate. These connectors 43 are exposed from the notch 28 formed in the inner glass plate 2. On the other hand, a pair of connectors 44 arranged at a predetermined interval are attached to second bus bar 313, and these connectors 44 extend from between fourth portions 312d of first bus bar 312 to lower side 12 of inner glass plate 2. These connectors 44 are exposed from the notch 29 formed in the inner glass plate 2. Then, if a voltage is applied between the connection 43 and the connection 44, heat can be generated by the heating wire 6, and also heat can be generated by the bus bars 312, 313, so that ice or the like is melted. Further, the heat generation amount per unit length of the heater wire 6 can be suppressed by the heat generation of the bus bars 312 and 313. As a result, the above-described blur can be prevented.

The bus bars 312 and 313 may be formed to be 10mm or less, for example, and thus the bus bars 312 and 313 are also heated to melt ice or the like on the glass plate. In particular, since the first bus bar 312 is formed so as to extend along the periphery of the glass plates 1 and 2, ice and the like can be melted even around the glass plates 1 and 2 where the heat of the heater wire 6 is hard to reach. Further, the heat generation amount per unit length of the heater wire 6 can be suppressed by generating heat along the bus bars 312, 313 extending along the peripheral edges of the glass plates 1, 2. As a result, the above-described blur can be prevented. The bus bars 312 and 313 are wider than the heater wire 6 and therefore are disposed around the glass plates 1 and 2 without obstructing the driver's view. In addition, the width of the bus bars 312 and 313 is, for example, the minimum width when the width changes.

Fig. 10 shows an example of the bus bar, and the shape thereof is not particularly limited. For example, the length and path of the glass plate are not particularly limited as long as the glass plate is formed so as to mainly follow the peripheral edge of the glass plate. In addition, either one of first bus bar 312 and second bus bar 313 may be extended.

<5.6>

In addition, adjacent heating wires 6 may be connected to each other by at least one bypass line. Thus, even if one heater wire 6 is broken, for example, electricity can be supplied from the adjacent heater wires 6. The position and number of the bypass lines are not particularly limited. The bypass line is not particularly limited, and may be arranged to extend obliquely or may be formed in various shapes such as a wave shape. Further, the bypass line may be formed of the same metal material as the heater wire 6, and may be formed integrally with the heater wire 6.

<5.7>

The form of the connectors 41 and 42 and the structure of the notch portions 21 and 22 of the inner glass plate 2 are not particularly limited. For example, as shown in fig. 11, the inside glass plate 2 may be formed with cut portions 21 and 22 having a thickness as small as that of the fastening members 41 and 42, and the fastening members 41 and 42 extending from the bus bars 312 and 313 may be folded back at the cut portions 21 and 22 and attached to the surface of the inside glass plate 2. In this way, the connectors 41 and 42 can be prevented from protruding in the plane direction from the end portions of the laminated glass.

<5.8>

The shape of the glass plates 1 and 2 is not particularly limited, and is not necessarily rectangular as long as the shape can be specified in terms of the outer shape of the upper side 11, the lower side 12, the left side 13, and the right side 14. In addition, each side 11-14 may be a curve other than a straight line.

<5.9>

The plurality of heating wires 6 need not be arranged in parallel, and may be irregular in shape such as a grid, for example. In the above embodiment, the heater wires 6 are connected in parallel with the bus bars 312 and 313 serving as electrodes, but may be connected in series. Further, the heater wire 6 may be disposed between the two bus bars 312 and 313.

<5.10>

In the above embodiment, the bus bars 312 and 313 are arranged along the upper and lower sides of the glass plate, respectively, but the bus bars may be arranged along the left and right sides of the glass plate so that the heater wire extends in the left-right direction.

<5.11>

In the above-described embodiments, the laminated glass of the present invention is applied to a windshield of an automobile, but may be applied to a side glass or a rear glass. The present invention is not limited to automobiles, but may be applied to other vehicles such as electric cars, window glasses of buildings, and the like.
