Abstract

Provided is a laminated glass capable of transmitting light applied from a remote sensing device satisfactorily, and enhancing the heat shielding property. A laminated glass of the present invention includes a first lamination glass member, a second lamination glass member, and an interlayer film, the interlayer film is arranged between the first lamination glass member and the second lamination glass member, the first lamination glass member has a light transmittance of 85% or more at every wavelength within a range of 380 nm to 2500 nm, the laminated glass has a first region and a second region, and the second region has a light transmittance of higher than a light transmittance of the first region by 5% or more at at least one wavelength within a range of 380 nm to 2500 nm.

Claims (35)

1 . A laminated glass comprising a first lamination glass member, a second lamination glass member, and an interlayer film,

the interlayer film being arranged between the first lamination glass member and the second lamination glass member,

the first lamination glass member having a light transmittance of 85% or more at every wavelength within a range of 380 nm to 2500 nm,

the laminated glass having a first region and a second region,

the second region having a light transmittance of higher than a light transmittance of the first region by 5% or more at at least one wavelength within a range of 380 nm to 2500 nm.

2 . The laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein light transmittance of the second region is higher than light transmittance of the first region by 5% or more at at least one wavelength within a range of 780 nm to 1000 nm.

3 . The laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein light transmittance of the second region is 90% or more at at least one wavelength within a range of 780 nm to 1000 nm.

4 . The laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein a region of 0 cm to 30 cm from at least one end part of the laminated glass to an inner side of the laminated glass has the second region.

5 . The laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein the interlayer film contains a pigment in a region corresponding to the first region.

6 . The laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein the interlayer film contains a heat shielding substance in a region corresponding to the first region.

7 . The laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein the interlayer film contains a cyclic cyanine compound, inorganic oxide particles, or carbon black in a region corresponding to the first region.

8 . The laminated glass according to claim 7 , wherein the inorganic oxide particles include cesium-doped tungsten oxide particles, or tin-doped indium oxide particles.

9 . The laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein light transmittance of the second lamination glass member is 85% or more at every wavelength within a range of 380 nm to 2500 nm.

10 . The laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first lamination glass member and the second lamination glass member is extra clear glass.

11 . The laminated glass according to claim 1 , wherein the interlayer film contains a heat reflective film in a region corresponding to the first region.

12 . A vehicle comprising:

a vehicle body;

a laminated glass; and

a remote sensing device capable of applying light,

the remote sensing device being arranged at such a position that light applied from the remote sensing device can penetrate the second region of the laminated glass,

the laminated glass comprising a first lamination glass member, a second lamination glass member, and an interlayer film,

the interlayer film being arranged between the first lamination glass member and the second lamination glass member,

the first lamination glass member having a light transmittance of 85% or more at every wavelength within a range of 380 nm to 2500 nm,

the laminated glass having a first region and a second region, and

the second region having a light transmittance of higher than a light transmittance of the first region by 5% or more at at least one wavelength within a range of 380 nm to 2500 nm.

13 . The vehicle according to claim 12 , wherein

the remote sensing device is a remote sensing device capable of applying an infrared ray, and

the remote sensing device is arranged at such a position that the infrared ray applied from the remote sensing device can penetrate the second region of the laminated glass.

14 . The vehicle according to claim 12 , wherein the remote sensing device is a LiDAR that enables 3D mapping of a peripheral environment of the vehicle, and is a scanning LiDAR, a rotating LiDAR, a flash LiDAR or a solid state LiDAR.

15 . The vehicle according to claim 12 , wherein light transmittance of the second region is higher than light transmittance of the first region by 5% or more at at least one wavelength within a range of 780 nm to 1000 nm.

16 . The vehicle according to claim 12 , wherein light transmittance of the second region is 90% or more at at least one wavelength within a range of 780 nm to 1000 nm.

17 . The vehicle according to claim 12 , wherein a region of 0 cm to 30 cm from at least one end part of the laminated glass to an inner side of the laminated glass has the second region.

18 . The vehicle according to claim 12 , wherein the interlayer film contains a cyclic cyanine compound, inorganic oxide particles, or carbon black in a region corresponding to the first region.

19 . The vehicle according to claim 18 , wherein the inorganic oxide particles include cesium-doped tungsten oxide particles, or tin-doped indium oxide particles.

20 . The vehicle according to claim 12 , wherein at least one of the first lamination glass member and the second lamination glass member is extra clear glass.
