  • the functional layer 12 is applied to side III, i.e. on the surface III of the inner pane 10 facing the intermediate layer 11.
  • the functional layer 12 can be arranged on side II, i.e. on the surface of the outer pane 11 facing the intermediate layer 11, or can be embedded between two thermoplastic intermediate layers 11. It would also be conceivable that the functional layer 12 has a sun protection effect.
  • the outer pane 9 contains soda lime glass and has a thickness of 2.1 mm.
  • the inner pane 10 also consists of soda-lime glass and has a thickness of 1.6 mm or 1.5 mm.
  • the two disks 9, 10 were laminated by a PVB film with a thickness of 0.76 mm.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un ensemble (1) pour un système d'aide à la conduite (100) d'un véhicule (2). Le vitrage de véhicule (5) présente au moins une couche fonctionnelle (12) qui réfléchit le rayonnement infrarouge et une zone réfléchissante (22), la couche fonctionnelle (12) étant conçue pour être électroconductrice et servant de dispositif de chauffage pour chauffer le vitrage de véhicule (5). Au moins deux barres omnibus (20, 21) sont prévues pour la mise en contact électrique de la couche fonctionnelle (12), et une zone de chauffage (H) est formée entre les au moins deux barres omnibus (20, 21) lorsqu'une tension électrique est appliquée aux deux barres omnibus (20, 21). La région réfléchissante (22) est disposée entre les au moins deux barres omnibus (20, 21), et la longueur d'une barre omnibus (20, 21) correspond à la longueur d'un bord latéral de la région réfléchissante (22).
