SPACING ELEMENT FOR USE WITH PHOTOELECTRIC DEVICES Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC E06B3/663 H01L31/02 H01L31/32 H01L31/48 

FIELD: electrical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to spacing elements (spacers) suitable for use with photoelectric devices. A spacing element is proposed for insulating glass units with three or more glazing panels limiting at least one hermetically closed inner space between at least two glazing panels. The spacing element contains: spacing element case (2) made of the first material and passing in longitudinal direction (Z) with two outer surfaces (AP) in transverse direction (X) perpendicular to longitudinal direction (Z) to attach to outer glazing panels (3, 4) of an insulating glass unit, and gas-impermeable barrier (40) made of the second material. In this case, the spacing element case has cross-section (X-Y) perpendicular to longitudinal direction (Z), with first chamber (10) for accommodating drying material, located near the first one (AP, 13) of two outer surfaces, with second chamber (20) for accommodating drying material, located near the second one (AP, 23) of two outer surfaces, and groove (30) located between first and second chambers (10, 20) in transverse direction (X) and opened on the first side of the spacing element in vertical direction (Y) perpendicular to longitudinal and transverse direction (Z, X). Gas-impermeable barrier (40) is located on and/or in the spacing element case in vertical direction (Y) on its second side that is opposite to the first side of the spacing element. Groove (30) is limited in the transverse direction with two sidewalls (14, 24) and in the vertical direction, on the second side, with lower side (31). Groove (30) is adapted for the insertion of inner glazing panel (5) into it. In this case, the spacing element contains at least two electroconductive parts (51, 52, 44, 53, 54) electrically isolated from each other and located in one or both sidewalls (14, 24) and/or in lower wall (31) of groove (30).

EFFECT: obtaining a spacing element for use with photoelectric devices.
