Abstract

A manufacturing method of a vacuum multilayer glass includes assembling an assembly including a first glass plate, a second glass plate, a sealing material and a getter material; carrying a conveyance table for conveying the assembly into a heating furnace; and heating the assembly in a reduced pressure space in the heating furnace to melt the sealing material and to activate the getter material at the same time, then solidifying the sealing material to bond the first glass plate and the second glass plate with the sealing material and to seal the reduced pressure space formed between the first glass plate and the second glass plate in a state of including the getter material, and causing the getter material to absorb gasses inside the reduced pressure space.

Claims (17)

1 . A manufacturing method of a vacuum multilayer glass, comprising:

assembling an assembly including a first glass plate, a second glass plate, a sealing material and a getter material;

carrying a conveyance table for conveying the assembly into a heating furnace; and

heating the assembly in a reduced pressure space in the heating furnace to melt the sealing material and to activate the getter material at the same time, then solidifying the sealing material to bond the first glass plate and the second glass plate with the sealing material and to seal the reduced pressure space formed between the first glass plate and the second glass plate in a state of including the getter material, and causing the getter material to absorb gasses inside the reduced pressure space.

2 . The manufacturing method of the vacuum multilayer glass according to claim 1 ,

wherein the sealing material is formed of a paste including glass frit, and

wherein a melting temperature of the sealing material is from 350° C. to 520° C.

3 . The manufacturing method of the vacuum multilayer glass according to claim 1 ,

wherein the sealing material is formed in a shape of a frame, and

wherein a distance between the getter material and at least a part of the sealing material is less than or equal to 20 mm.

4 . A vacuum multilayer glass comprising:

a first glass plate;

a second glass plate;

a reduced pressure space formed between the first glass plate and the second glass plate;

a sealing material formed to bond the first glass plate and the second glass plate and to seal the reduced pressure space; and

a getter material formed to absorb gasses in the reduced pressure space,

wherein a distance between the getter material and at least a part of the sealing material is less than or equal to 20 mm.
