2. Technical Background: Why Is Electric Heating Laminated Glass Needed?

In fields such as automotive, cold storage, marine, and outdoor construction, glass not only needs to have heating functions for defogging and defrosting but must also meet stringent safety and explosion-proof requirements. Traditional electric heating glass is mostly single-layer tempered glass. Once accidentally broken, the fragments will splash and injure people. Ordinary laminated glass, while safe, does not have the active heating and defrosting function.

Mingda Glass's "Electric Heating Laminated Glass" patent technology is an innovation aimed at this pain point. This technology cleverly embeds electric heating elements (such as metal wires, conductive films, or heating meshes) into the PVB or SGP laminated layer, with the outer layer composed of multiple glass layers. This structure not only retains the high safety of laminated glass ("broken but not flying, remains intact" when impacted) but also achieves efficient electro-thermal conversion, capable of rapidly melting ice, defrosting, and preventing fogging.

✔ Technical Highlights
This patent perfectly combines electric heating function with laminated safety glass, featuring explosion-proof and anti-splinter properties with excellent insulation. At the same time, it can complement the company's existing anti-fog glass and electric heating coated glass technologies to meet the needs of extreme working conditions such as automotive side windows, cold storage explosion-proof doors, and high-speed rail portholes.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

❓ How long is the protection period for this "Electric Heating Laminated Glass" patent?
According to the Patent Law of the People's Republic of China, the term of a utility model patent is ten years from the application date. The application date of this patent is February 8, 2017, so the protection period ends on February 7, 2027. The patentee must pay annual fees as required to maintain the patent's validity.
❓ What are the advantages of electric heating laminated glass compared with ordinary electric heating glass?
The biggest advantage lies in "safety." Ordinary electric heating glass is mostly single-layer tempered. Once damaged by external force, the whole piece of glass will shatter into particles and fall. Electric heating laminated glass has a PVB/SGP film layer in the middle. Even if the glass breaks, the fragments will be firmly adhered to by the film and will not splash and injure people. In addition, the laminated structure also gives the glass better sound insulation and certain UV protection capabilities.
❓ Can the heating elements of this glass be seen? Will it affect light transmittance?
Mingda Glass offers two solutions: First, using extremely fine tungsten or constantan wires, which are almost imperceptible to the naked eye (commonly used in automotive rear windshields); Second, using nanoscale transparent conductive film (ITO) or graphene coating, which is completely invisible to the naked eye, with a light transmittance of over 85%, and the appearance is no different from ordinary laminated glass.
❓ How can I verify the authenticity of this patent?
You can visit the official website of the State Intellectual Property Office (www.cnipa.gov.cn) and enter the patent number "ZL 2017 2 0114213.6" or certificate number "6489042" in the patent search system for verification.
