Embodiments of a vehicle interior system and methods of forming the same are disclosed. The vehicle interior system includes a base having a curved surface, a display disposed on the curved surface, and a cover glass disposed on the display. The cover glass has a first region including a first major surface, a second major surface opposite the first major surface, and a first thickness defined as a distance between the first major surface and the second major surface. The cover glass also has a second region including the first major surface, a third major surface opposite the first major surface, and a second thickness defined as a distance between the first major surface and the third major surface. The display is attached to the third major surface, and the second region corresponds to a touch-sensitive region of the display. The second thickness is greater than the first thickness.

Cover glass with reinforcement for display or touch panels

Embodiments of a vehicle interior system are disclosed. In one or more embodiments, the system includes a base with a curved surface, a cold-formed glass substrate with a thickness of 1.5 mm or less and a first radius of curvature of 500 mm or greater, and an adhesive between the curved surface and the glass substrate. Methods for forming such systems are also disclosed. The systems and methods include components and/or design modifications or methods for reducing stress in the adhesive.

Vehicle interior systems having a curved cover glass with improved reliability and methods for forming the same

A glass article is provided with a cover glass sheet having first and second major surfaces. The second major surface has a first region with a first curve of a first radius of curvature, and a second region that is different than the first region. A frame's support surface has a third region of a first frame material and a fourth region of a different, second frame material. The second major surface faces the support, and the third region includes a second curve that complements the first curve while the fourth region complements the second region. A first adhesive is between the third region and the first region. A second adhesive is disposed between the fourth region and the second region. The first adhesive has a first Young's modulus, and the second adhesive comprising a second Young's modulus that is different than the first Young's modulus.

Cold-formed glass article with thermally matched system and process for forming the same

Methods for producing a glass sheet are provided. The methods can include forming a glass ribbon from molten glass, applying a polymer precursor to at least a portion of a first or second major surface of the glass ribbon, curing the polymer precursor to form a polymer coating, and separating the glass ribbon to produce at least one glass sheet. Glass ribbons and glass sheets produced by these methods are also disclosed.
