    摘要: This disclosure describes insulated glass units (IGUs) that incorporate electrochromic devices. More specifically, this disclosure focuses on different configurations available for providing an electrical connection to the interior region of an IGU. In many cases, an IGU includes two panes separated by a spacer. The spacer defines an interior region of the IGU and an exterior region of the IGU. Often, the electrochromic device positioned on the pane does not extend past the spacer, and some electrical connection must be provided to supply power from the exterior of the IGU to the electrochromic device on the interior of the IGU. In some embodiments, the spacer includes one or more holes (e.g., channels, mouse holes, other holes, etc.) through which an electrical connection (e.g., wires, busbar leads, etc.) may pass to provide power to the electrochromic device.

    摘要: This disclosure provides connectors for smart windows. A smart window may incorporate an optically switchable pane. In one aspect, a window unit includes an insulated glass unit including an optically switchable pane. A wire assembly may be attached to the edge of the insulated glass unit and may include wires in electrical communication with electrodes of the optically switchable pane. A floating connector may be attached to a distal end of the wire assembly. The floating connector may include a flange and a nose, with two holes in the flange for affixing the floating connector to a first frame. The nose may include a terminal face that present two exposed contacts of opposite polarity. Pre-wired spacers improve fabrication efficiency and seal integrity of insulated glass units. Electrical connection systems include those embedded in the secondary seal of the insulated glass unit.

    摘要翻译: 本公开描述了并入电致变色器件的绝缘玻璃单元(IGU)。 更具体地,本公开集中于可用于提供到IGU的内部区域的电连接的不同配置。 在许多情况下,IGU包括由间隔物分开的两个窗格。 间隔件限定了IGU的内部区域和IGU的外部区域。 通常,定位在玻璃板上的电致变色器件不会延伸穿过间隔器,并且必须提供一些电气连接以将电力从IGU的外部供应到IGU内部的电致变色器件。 在一些实施例中,间隔件包括一个或多个孔(例如,通道,鼠标孔,其他孔等),电连接(例如,电线,母线引线等)可以通过该孔来向电致变色装置提供电力 。
