Windshield

1. A windshield on which an information acquisition device configured to acquire information from an outside of a vehicle by emitting and/or receiving light can be arranged, the windshield comprising:

an outer glass plate;

an inner glass plate;

an interlayer arranged between the outer glass plate and the inner glass plate;

a first blocking layer layered on a surface on a vehicle interior side of the inner glass plate; and

a second blocking layer layered on a surface on a vehicle interior side of the outer glass plate;

wherein the first blocking layer has an opening through which the light passes,

the second blocking layer is layered at a position where the second blocking layer blocks an upper portion of the opening, and the second blocking layer and the opening form a path through which the light passes,

a lowermost surface, which is projected within the opening in a direction normal to the opening, of the second blocking layer forms an upper end of the path, and

a lower end of the opening forms a bottom end of the path.

2. The windshield according to claim 1 ,

wherein the second blocking layer is formed extending in an up-down direction, and

the second blocking layer blocks a portion of the opening such that the shortest distance A between an upper side of the inner glass plate and an upper edge of the opening and the shortest distance B between the upper side of the inner glass plate and a lower edge of the second blocking layer satisfy A<B.

3. The windshield according to claim 1 ,

wherein the second blocking portion is layered at a position where it blocks an upper portion of the opening and at least a portion of two side portions of the opening.

4. The windshield according to claim 1 ,

wherein the second blocking portion is layered at a position where it blocks an inner peripheral edge portion of the opening.

5. The windshield according to claim 1 , further comprising

an antifog sheet attached to the surface on the vehicle interior side of the inner glass plate;

wherein the antifog sheet is attached so as to cover at least a portion of the opening.

6. The windshield according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first blocking layer has an extension portion that extends downward from a vicinity of an upper side of the inner glass plate, and a lower end portion of the extension portion is provided with the opening, and

the second blocking layer is formed so as to be layered at a position corresponding to the extension portion and so as to block an upper portion of the opening.

7. The windshield according to claim 5 ,

wherein the antifog sheet is attached so as to overlap with at least a portion of a peripheral edge of the opening, and

the second blocking layer is layered at least at a position corresponding to the portion where the peripheral edge of the opening and the antifog sheet overlap with each other.

8. The windshield according to claim 7 ,

wherein the opening is formed into a rectangular shape, and

the antifog sheet is attached so as to overlap with at least an upper edge of the opening.

9. The windshield according to claim 5 ,

wherein the opening is formed into a rectangular shape, and

the antifog sheet is arranged so as not to be in contact with two side edges of the opening.

10. The windshield according to claim 5 ,

wherein the opening is formed into a rectangular shape, and

the antifog sheet is attached so as to overlap with at least one of two side edges of the opening,

the second blocking layer includes a pair of protruding portions that extend along the two sides of the opening, and

the protruding portions are provided at positions corresponding to a portion where the antifog sheet and at least one of the two side edges of the opening overlap with each other.

11. The windshield according to claim 1 ,

wherein the first blocking layer has an extension portion that extends downward from a vicinity of an upper side of the inner glass plate, and a lower end portion of the extension portion is provided with the opening, and

a width of the second blocking layer is less than or equal to a width of the extension portion of the first blocking layer.

12. The windshield according to claim 1 , further comprising

a bracket to which the information acquisition device is attachable and that is attached to the surface on the vehicle interior side of the inner glass plate,

wherein the bracket is formed into a frame shape having a through-hole portion surrounding the opening, and

the antifog sheet is arranged in the through-hole portion.

13. The windshield according to claim 5 ,

wherein the antifog sheet includes

a base member,

an antifog layer layered on one surface of the base member, and

an adhesive layer that is layered on another surface of the base member and is attached to the inner glass plate.

14. The windshield according to claim 1 ,

wherein an attachment angle of the windshield attached to a vehicle relative to a vertical direction is 45 degrees or less.

15. The windshield according to claim 1 ,

wherein linear expansion coefficients of the glass plates and linear expansion coefficients of the blocking layers are different from each other, and

the amount of warping occurring in a vicinity of an edge portion of the first blocking layer in the inner glass plate is smaller than the amount of warping occurring in a vicinity of an edge portion of the second blocking layer in the outer glass plate.

16. The windshield according to claim 1 , wherein the opening is defined between a first surface and a second surface of the first blocking layer, a lowermost end of the second blocking layer is positioned between said first surface and a lowermost surface of the first blocking layer, and the path is defined between said lowermost surface of the second blocking layer and said second surface of the first blocking layer.
