A device for picking up, shaping, and placing a thin glass pane, includes a frame with an upper side and a lower side, which is suitable to be directed at a glass pane with a thickness of less than 1 mm, and which is provided with a plurality of picking up pins that are arranged substantially parallel to one another and whose end directed at the glass pane is equipped with a suction cup, wherein the picking up pins are movable along their direction of extension independent of one another in order to adapt the arrangement of the suction cups to an intended shape of the glass pane.

Device and method for picking up, shaping, and placing a thin glass pane

A method for producing laminated glass or a precursor thereof using a first glass pane with a thickness of at least 1.4 mm and a second glass pane with a thickness of not more than 1.0 mm, the first and second glass panes differing in curvature and/or locally in shape, includes aligning an arrangement including the first and second glass panes and a laminating film by positioning a side edge of the arrangement against a stop element; pre-fixing the aligned arrangement at at least two locations on the positioned side edge of the arrangement by one or more fixing elements and heating, after which the fixing element or elements are removed again; and forming a fixed arrangement by passing the pre-fixed arrangement through a roller arrangement with the pre-fixed side edge of the arrangement ahead. The arrangement is heated in sections during passage.

Aligning and laminating method for the production of thin laminated glass from glass panes which do not fit together accurately

A composite pane includes a first pane, a second pane, and a thermoplastic film arranged between the two panes, wherein at least one pane is in the form of a flat glass and at least one pane surface has a plurality of elongated elevations and elongated depressions that extend along a first pane direction and are alternatingly arranged in a second pane direction perpendicular to the first pane direction, the thermoplastic film is produced by extrusion and at least one film surface has a plurality of elongated elevations and elongated depressions that extend along a first film direction and are alternatingly arranged in a second film direction perpendicular to the first film direction, wherein the elongated elevations of the at least one pane are arranged at an angle different from 90&#xb0; relative to the elongated elevations of the thermoplastic film.
