Abstract

An insulating glazing includes a first pane, a second pane, an inner spacer frame arranged between the panes, which, together with the panes, delimits an inner interpane space, a surrounding outer spacer frame arranged between the panes, which is arranged on the outward facing side of the inner spacer frame, wherein the inner spacer frame consists substantially of a first hollow profile spacer and the outer spacer frame consists substantially of a second hollow profile spacer, the inner spacer frame and the outer spacer frame are in each case connected together to the first pane and the second pane via a primary sealant, an outer interpane space between the outer side of the outer spacer frame and the first pane and the second pane is filled with a secondary sealant.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An insulating glazing comprising:
a first pane, a second pane,
an inner spacer frame arranged between the first and second panes, which, together with the first and second panes, delimits an inner interpane space,
a surrounding outer spacer frame arranged between the first and second panes, which is arranged on the outward facing side of the inner spacer frame,
wherein the inner spacer frame consists substantially of a first hollow profile spacer and the outer spacer frame consists substantially of a second hollow profile spacer,
wherein the inner spacer frame and the outer spacer frame are each connected to the first pane and the second pane via a primary sealant,
wherein an outer interpane space between an outer side of the outer spacer frame, the first pane, and the second pane is filled with a secondary sealant,
wherein an electrically switchable functional element is arranged on a side of one of the first and second panes facing the inner interpane space,
wherein an element to be concealed is arranged on one of the first and second panes, which element is arranged between the first hollow profile spacer and the one of the first and second panes such that the element to be concealed is concealed by the first hollow profile spacer, wherein the element to be concealed is a bus bar or a cable that is connected to the electrically switchable functional element,
wherein the first hollow profile spacer and the second hollow profile spacer each comprise a first pane contact wall, a second pane contact wall, a glazing interior wall that connects the first and second pane contact walls to one another, and an outer wall that runs substantially parallel to the glazing interior wall and connects the first and second pane contact walls to one another,
wherein the first pane contact wall, the second pane contact wall, the glazing interior wall and the outer wall of the first hollow profile spacer are different from the first pane contact wall, the second pane contact wall, the glazing interior wall and the outer wall of the second hollow profile spacer,
wherein at least the first hollow profile spacer is implemented such that the first pane contact wall is connected to the outer wall via a first connecting wall and the second pane contact wall is connected to the outer wall via a second connecting wall,
wherein the first and second connecting walls have an angle of 30° to 60° relative to, respectively, the first and second pane contact walls, as a result of which two intermediate spaces are created, which are in each case delimited by one of the first and second panes, the first hollow profile spacer, and the second hollow profile spacer, and
wherein in at least one of the two intermediate spaces, a cable or wire is routed over a distance of at least 5 cm in a direction of extension of the spacer frame.

2. The insulating glazing according to claim 1 , wherein a width b 1 of the first hollow profile spacer is smaller than a width b 2 of the second hollow profile spacer.

3. The insulating glazing according to claim 2 , wherein the width b 1 of the first hollow profile spacer is 0.1 mm to 1 mm smaller than the width b 2 of the second hollow profile spacer.

4. The insulating glazing according to claim 1 , wherein at least the first hollow profile spacer is substantially made of a polymeric material.

5. The insulating glazing according to claim 4 , wherein the second hollow profile spacer is made substantially of a polymeric material.

6. The insulating glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the first hollow profile spacer contains a desiccant in a first hollow chamber and the first hollow profile spacer contains a plurality of openings in its glazing interior wall.

7. The insulating glazing according to claim 1 , wherein the second hollow profile spacer has a gas- and moisture-tight barrier at least on its outer wall.

8. A method for producing an insulating glazing according to claim 1 comprising:
providing a first pane,
securing an outer spacer frame made of a second hollow profile spacer on the first pane via a primary sealant,
securing an inner spacer frame made of a first hollow profile spacer on the first pane via the primary sealant, wherein the outer spacer frame surrounds the inner spacer frame,
securing a second pane on the arrangement composed of the first pane and the inner and outer spacer frames via a primary sealant,
filling the outer interpane space between the first pane, the second pane, and the side of the outer spacer frame facing the external environment with a secondary sealant.

9. The method for producing an insulating glazing according to claim 8 , wherein the inner spacer frame is attached such that the inner spacer frame covers an element to be concealed that is arranged on the first pane and/or on the second pane.

10. A method comprising utilizing an insulating glazing according to claim 1 as a building glazing.
