Insulated overhead door panel with glass panes and seals
The granted patent (Publication Number: US12000202B2) discloses an overhead door panel comprising a pair of glass panes, a metal frame section with parallel lateral stiles, and seal systems that engage with the glass panes and the metal frame to create an interior cavity free of inert gases. The panel includes a vapor permeable membrane to manage moisture transmission, ensuring the longevity of the panel's structure. The seal systems are designed with polymer extrusions to maintain the separation between the glass panes and the metal frame, preventing the need for desiccate fill within the interior cavity.
Furthermore, the patent extends to an insulated window design that mirrors the features of the overhead door panel, emphasizing the importance of maintaining an interior cavity free of inert gases and desiccate fill. The inclusion of a vapor permeable membrane adjacent to the metal frame section ensures effective moisture management within the window structure. The choice of materials for the vapor permeable membrane, such as high-density polyethylene or stretched polytetrafluoroethylene laminate, highlights the focus on durability and functionality in maintaining the integrity of the insulated window design.
