Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for filling an insulating glass unit with a filling gas, the filling gas being introduced into the interior of the insulating glass unit via at least one inlet opening and air or air-gas mixture being removed from the interior of the insulating glass unit via at least one further opening, in particular being extracted .
  • the invention further relates to a device for carrying out the method with a device for supplying filling gas into the interior of an insulating glass unit via at least one opening provided in the spacer frame thereof and with a device with which air and / or gas from the interior of the insulating glass unit via at least one In the spacer frame the same opening provided can be removed.
  • the problem with the known devices is that it takes a long time for the filling process to be completed. It is therefore no longer possible to comply with the cycle times customary for the production of insulating glass (approximately 20 seconds). The reason for this is that the insulating glass unit must be filled slowly with filling gas so that no high pressure builds up in the pane, since otherwise the insulating glass unit would be destroyed, for example because the glass panes detach from the spacer frame.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a method of the type mentioned that can be carried out quickly and easily, so that the filling with filling gas does not interfere with the normal cycle times of an insulating glass production line.
  • this is achieved in that a pressure is exerted on the outer surfaces of the glass panes of the insulating glass unit to be filled during the filling process, which pressure is at least as great as the pressure in the interior of the insulating glass unit during the filling process.
  • the filling gas can be blown into the insulating glass unit at high pressure and thus at a correspondingly high speed, flow speeds of 60 to 200 l / min are possible. Because the glass panes are pressed against the spacer frame by the external pressure, there is no danger that the glass panes will come loose from the spacer frame. It is also prevented that spacer frames between the two glass panes of the insulating glass unit move outward under the pressure of the filling gas.
  • the procedure according to the invention is such that the pressure is applied to the glass panes during the filling process by applying plate-shaped pressure elements.
  • the volume of the interior of the insulating glass to be filled with the filling gas Unit determines that the amount of fill gas supplied is detected and that the filling process is terminated when the amount of fill gas detected is equal to the amount of fill gas to be filled into the interior.
  • the procedure can be such that the amount of filling gas supplied per unit time is determined and that the filling process is terminated if the product of the filling gas amount per unit time and duration of the filling process corresponds to the volume to be supplied to the interior of the insulating glass unit.
  • oxygen sensors in the suction line can be dispensed with, since the required amount of filling gas is simply blown into the insulating glass unit.
  • a preferred device according to the invention for carrying out the method is characterized in that two pressure plates are provided which can be placed against the outer surfaces of the glass panes of the insulating glass unit with preselectable pressure during the filling process.
  • the insulating glass unit is brought between the two pressure plates, for which purpose it is preferably provided that a conveyor device, for example a conveyor device, is provided at the lower end of the pressure plates that can be placed on the outer surfaces of the glass panes.
  • Transport rollers or an endless conveyor belt for the insulating glass unit is provided, and then the two pressure plates are placed from the outside against the glass panes of the insulating glass unit.
  • the two pressure plates can be the plates of a press for pressing insulating glass.
  • this is only a preferred variant, since it is sufficient in itself if two pressure plates are provided which lie against the outer surfaces of the two glass panes of the insulating glass unit and are pressed against the glass panes with corresponding pressure.
  • the device for supplying the filling gas and the suction device each have probes that can be inserted into openings (bores) provided in the spacer frame, then it is advisable to assign devices to the probes that each precisely center the probes Align between the glass panels of the insulating glass unit.
  • the height orientation of the probes is due to the position of the opening, or the like through a drilling device, punch. generated, specified and usually does not need to be scanned separately.
  • the device for supplying filling gas has at its end a block which can be placed on the narrow side of the insulating glass unit in the region of the opening in the spacer, that the block on its surface facing the insulating glass unit has a support made of elastic material, and that the support, when the block is put on, seals against the end edges of the glass panes and against the outer surface of the spacer between the glass panes.
  • the device has at its end a block that can be placed on the narrow side of the insulating glass unit in the area of the opening in the spacer, that the block has a support made of elastic material on its surface facing the insulating glass unit, and that when the block is applied, the support seals against the end edges of the glass panes and against the outer surface of the spacer between the glass panes.
  • Devices equipped in this way for supplying the filling gas and for discharging air and / or gas will preferably be used when the openings for supplying or discharging are provided in the region of vertical edges or a vertical edge of the insulating glass unit.
  • the free end of the device which can be placed on the insulating glass unit is supported in a height-adjustable and horizontally adjustable manner by a slide guided over the pressure plates.
  • the suction device held in this way or the block provided on it, or in particular the probe provided on it, is brought up from above and then inserted or placed laterally into the opening in the spacer.
  • a pressure measuring device is provided in the line for supplying the filling gas.
  • the pressure sensor in the feed line for the filling gas detects the pressure prevailing in the interior of the insulating glass unit and controls the device in such a way that the press is only opened or the pressure on the outer surfaces of the glass panes of the insulating glass unit is only released when the Pressure measuring device a signal is given that the gas pressure inside the insulating glass unit corresponds for example to the atmospheric pressure (or a preselected).
  • the opening in the spacer frame is closed by injecting a hardening mass, for example with the aid of a plug made of butyl rubber.
  • This mode of operation also makes it possible to adjust the pressure inside the insulating glass pane to the atmospheric pressure normally prevailing at the installation site depending on the altitude of the installation site.
  • the openings in the spacer can also be closed in another station.
  • the method of operation and the device according to the invention also make it possible to fill the insulating glass unit with filling gas (e.g. sulfur hexafluoride), which is only partially intended for soundproofing purposes. Until now, this was not possible with an ordinary oxygen sensor in the suction line. In the invention, it is simply sufficient to blow in the predetermined amount of filling gas, based on the volume of the interior of the insulating glass unit (i.e. the desired fraction of the interior volume).
  • filling gas e.g. sulfur hexafluoride
  • a device shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 for filling an insulating glass unit with a filling gas comprises two plates 1 and 2 which can be moved towards one another.
  • these plates 1 and 2 are the pressure plates of a plate press for pressing insulating glass, as is known from DE-A 31 30 645.
  • a stand-up conveyor 3 is provided below the lower edge of the plates 1, 2, which in the exemplary embodiment shown is formed from a plurality of rollers.
  • the stand-up conveyor 3 serves as a conveyor device for feeding insulating glass units 4 into the space between the two pressure plates 1 and 2.
  • the pressure plates 1 and 2 are assigned a device 5 for supplying filling gas and a device 6 for discharging air and / or gas.
  • the device 5 is connected to a filling gas source.
  • the device 6 can be connected to the suction side of a vacuum pump.
  • the device 5 is movably supported by means not shown in detail and can be moved forward to the insulating glass pane 4 between the plates 1 and 2, so that its probe 7 can be moved through an ab Standhalter 8 provided opening 9 extends, as shown in Figure 1.
  • a sensor 10 is connected to the device 5, which is connected to a shoulder 11 in the starting position on the front edge of one of the two glass panes 12 and 13 (in the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG Glass pane 12) of the insulating glass unit 4 is present.
  • the sensor 10 is moved to the other glass pane 13, that is to say transversely to the surface extension of the insulating glass unit 4, the projection 11 moving into the groove formed between the edges of the glass panes 12 and 13 and the spacer 8 until it finally touches the Inside the glass pane 13 runs up.
  • the stroke between the penetration into the edge groove and the emergence of the finger 11 on the glass pane 13 corresponds to the thickness of the interior 14, so that the center of the distance between the two inner surfaces of the glass panes 12 and 13 can be calculated.
  • the probe 7 can be aligned centrally in the lateral direction with respect to the opening 9.
  • the height alignment does not have to take place separately, since the height of the tool producing the opening (drill or punch) is predetermined in any case with respect to the lower horizontal edge of the insulating glass unit 4.
  • the device 6 comprises a carriage 16 which can be moved on a rail 17 which is arranged above the plates 1, 2.
  • the probe 15 is held on an arm 18 of the device 6 which projects between the plates 1 and 2 and can be moved up and down.
  • drives not shown e.g. Chains or cable drives or also pressure medium motors are provided.
  • the two pressure plates 1 and 2 and the up are again adjusting conveyor 3 is provided for an insulating glass unit 4.
  • the device 5 and the device 6 have on their parts which can be brought into engagement with the insulating glass unit 4, blocks 20, which have on their side facing the insulating glass units supports 21 made of elastically flexible material, for example foam material. Both the block 20 and the support 21 are penetrated by a bore 23 which is coaxial with the interior of the feed line 22 and which is aligned with the opening 9 in the spacer 8 of the insulating glass unit 4 when the block 20 is placed on the insulating glass unit 4.
  • the support 21 of the block 20 is deformed and lies in a sealing manner on the front edges of the glass panes 12 and 13 and on the outer surface of the spacer 8, so that even without a probe 7 or 15 a tight one Connection of the device 5 or the device 6 to the interior 14 of the insulating glass unit 4 is reached.
  • FIG. 5 the orientation of the insulating glass unit 4 with respect to the pressure plates 1 and 2 has been modified from the illustration in FIG.
  • the orientation according to FIG. 3 is preferred, where the insulating glass unit 4 protrudes somewhat beyond the vertical side edge 24 of the plates 1 and 2.
  • the block 20 can then be made wider and, unlike in the embodiment according to FIG. 5, it is possible to use a uniform block 20 to carry out the filling or suctioning in insulating glass units with different thicknesses.
  • a pressure measuring device 25 and a flow rate measuring device 26 are associated with the device for supplying filling gas into the insulating glass unit 4.
  • the flow rate measuring device either measures the total amount of filling gas supplied by the device 5 or that per unit of time over the Filling device 5 supplied amount of filling gas.
  • the filling volume i.e. the volume of the interior 14 of the insulating glass unit 4 to be filled can be calculated (based on the width and height of the insulating glass unit 4 in conjunction with the distance between the two glass panes 12 and 13, which was previously determined by the sensor 10).
  • the required fill gas quantity is determined on the basis of the volume determined. It can then be carried out in such a way that, based on the flow quantity of filling gas measured by the flow measuring device per unit of time, the filling is terminated after a predetermined period of time, the predetermined period of time corresponding to the volume of filling gas that is to be supplied, based on the flow rate.
  • the volume of filling gas to be supplied generally corresponds to 110-120% of the volume of the interior 14 of the insulating glass unit 4.
  • a pressure measuring device 25 is provided in the device 5.
  • This pressure measuring device 25 permits the opening of the pressure plates 1, 2 only after a predetermined pressure in the interior 14 of the insulating glass unit 4 has been reached.
  • This pressure can correspond to the atmospheric pressure at the place of manufacture or deviate upwards or downwards from this.
  • the achievement of the desired pressure in the interior 14 of the insulating glass unit 4 can be accelerated in that after the supply of filling gas has been interrupted, the device 5 further sucks gas out of the interior 14 via the device 6.
  • the openings in the spacer 8 become hard by injection tendency, for example with the aid of a plug made of butyl rubber, closed.
  • the openings in the spacer can also be closed in another station to shorten the cycle time.
  • the protrusion of the insulating glass unit 4 shown in FIG. 3 over the edge 24 of the plates 1, 2 is in practice about 2-3 mm.
  • the pressure which is exerted on the outer surfaces of the glass panes 12 and 13 of the insulating glass unit 4 can be less or greater or the same as the pressure built up in the interior 14 during the filling process.
  • the pressure exerted by the glass panes 1 and 2 is preferably at least equal to the pressure in the interior 14 of the insulating glass unit 4, so that the adhesive connection between the spacer 8 and the glass panes 12 and 13 of the insulating glass unit 4 is not stressed. A greater pressure will be applied if a simultaneous pressing of the insulating glass unit 4 is carried out with the filling of the insulating glass unit 4 with filling gas.
