- the compound represented by the formula (I) is hydrolyzed or partially hydrolyzed, and at least a part of the compound is polycondensed so that silicon atoms and oxygen atoms are alternately connected and three-dimensionally. It forms a network structure of spreading siloxane bonds (Si—O—Si).
- a water-repellent group R is connected to the silicon atom contained in this network structure.
- the water repellent group R is fixed to the network structure of the siloxane bond via the bond R—Si. This structure is advantageous in uniformly dispersing the water-repellent group R in the film.

- a silicon compound for example, tetraalkoxysilane, silane coupling agent

- a network structure of siloxane bonds containing a silicon atom bonded to a water-repellent group and a silicon atom not bonded to a water-repellent group can be formed. With such a structure, it becomes easy to adjust the content of the water-repellent group and the content of the metal oxide component in the antifogging film independently of each other.
- the water-repellent group has the effect of improving the anti-fog performance by improving the permeability of water vapor on the surface of the anti-fog film containing the water-absorbent resin. Since the two functions of water absorption and water repellency are opposite to each other, the water absorption material and the water repellent material have been conventionally assigned to different layers, but the water repellent group is provided in the vicinity of the surface of the antifogging layer. It eliminates the uneven distribution of water, prolongs the time until dew condensation, and improves the antifogging property of the antifogging film having a single-layer structure. The effect will be described below.
- the water vapor that has entered the antifogging film containing the water-absorbent resin is hydrogen-bonded to the hydroxyl groups of the water-absorbent resin and is retained in the form of bound water. As the amount increases, the water vapor is retained in the form of free water, which is retained in the voids in the antifog film, from the form of bonding water through the form of semi-bonding water.
- the water repellent group prevents the formation of hydrogen bonds and facilitates the dissociation of the formed hydrogen bonds. If the content of the water-absorbent resin is the same, there is no difference in the number of hydrogen-bondable hydroxyl groups in the membrane, but the water-repellent group reduces the formation rate of hydrogen bonds.
- the antifogging film containing a water-repellent group water is finally retained in the film in any of the above forms, but remains water vapor to the bottom of the film until it is retained. Can spread.
- the water dissociates relatively easily and easily moves to the bottom of the membrane in the state of water vapor.
- the distribution of the amount of water retained in the thickness direction of the film becomes relatively uniform from the vicinity of the surface to the bottom of the film. That is, since all of the antifogging film in the thickness direction can be effectively utilized and the water supplied to the film surface can be absorbed, water droplets are less likely to condense on the surface and the antifogging property is improved.
- the antifogging film that has absorbed water has a feature that it is hard to freeze even at a low temperature. Therefore, if this antifogging film is fixed to the photographing window 113, the field of view of the photographing window 113 can be secured in a wide temperature range.
- the water vapor that has entered the film is very easily retained in the form of bonded water, semi-bonded water, or free water. Therefore, the invading water vapor tends to be retained near the surface of the film.
- the water content in the membrane is extremely high near the surface and decreases rapidly toward the bottom of the membrane. That is, although water can still be absorbed at the bottom of the film, it is saturated with water in the vicinity of the surface of the film and condenses as water droplets, so that the antifogging property is limited.
- a water-repellent group is introduced into an antifogging film using a water-repellent group-containing hydrolyzable silicon compound (see formula (I))

- the length of the first line 621 connecting the center of the upper side and the center of the lower side shown in FIG. 8 is different from that of the side side 620 of the heat generating layer 62.
- the heat generation distribution may be biased.
- the amount of heat generated may be insufficient near the lower end of the side 620 having a long distance. Therefore, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, five dividing electrodes 821 to 825 are evenly arranged on the lower side of the heat generating layer 62, and these are connected in parallel to the power supply (not shown).

However, it does not have to be exactly the same, and the width of the first electrode 81 can be 0.8 to 1.2 times the total width of the five divided electrodes 821 to 825. For example, in the example of FIG.
- the length of the first electrode 81 is 75 mm, and the total width of the five divided electrodes 821 to 825 is 75 mm (15 mm * 5), which is the same. By doing so, it is possible to prevent the heat generation distribution of the heat generating layer 62 from being biased.

まず、図1及び図2を用いて、本実施形態に係るウインドシールドの第1実施形態の構成について説明する。図1はウインドシールドの平面図、図2は図1の断面図である。なお、説明の便宜のため、図1の上下方向を「上下」、「垂直」、「縦」と、図1の左右方向を「左右」と称することとする。図1は、車内側から見たウインドシールドを例示している。すなわち、図1の紙面奥側が車外側であり、図1の紙面手前側が車内側である。
図3は合わせガラスの断面図である。同図に示すように、この合わせガラス10は、外側ガラス板11及び内側ガラス板12を備え、これらガラス板11、12の間に樹脂製の中間膜13が配置されている。以下、これらの構成について説明する。
まず、外側ガラス板11及び内側ガラス板12から説明する。外側ガラス板11及び内側ガラス板12は、公知のガラス板を用いることができ、熱線吸収ガラス、一般的なクリアガラスやグリーンガラス、またはUVグリーンガラスで形成することもできる。但し、これらのガラス板11、12は、自動車が使用される国の安全規格に沿った可視光線透過率を実現する必要がある。例えば、外側ガラス板11により必要な日射吸収率を確保し、
内側ガラス板12により可視光線透過率が安全規格を満たすように調整することができる。以下に、クリアガラス、熱線吸収ガラス、及びソーダ石灰系ガラスの一例を示す。
SiO2:70~73質量%
Al2O3:0.6~2.4質量%
CaO:7~12質量%
MgO:1.0~4.5質量%
R2O:13~15質量%(Rはアルカリ金属)
Fe2O3に換算した全酸化鉄(T-Fe2O3):0.08~0.14質量%
熱線吸収ガラスの組成は、例えば、クリアガラスの組成を基準として、Fe2O3に換算した全酸化鉄(T-Fe2O3)の比率を0.4~1.3質量%とし、CeO2の比率を0~2質量%とし、TiO2の比率を0~0.5質量%とし、ガラスの骨格成分(主に、SiO2やAl2O3)をT-Fe2O3、CeO2およびTiO2の増加分だけ減じた組成とすることができる。

中間膜13は、少なくとも一層で形成されており、一例として、図3に示すように、軟質のコア層131を、これよりも硬質のアウター層132で挟持した3層で構成することができる。但し、この構成に限定されるものではなく、コア層131と、外側ガラス板11側に配置される少なくとも1つのアウター層132とを有する複数層で形成されていればよい。例えば、コア層131と、外側ガラス板11側に配置される1つのアウター層132を含む2層の中間膜13、またはコア層131を中心に両側にそれぞれ2層以上の偶数のアウター層132を配置した中間膜13、あるいはコア層131を挟んで一方に奇数のアウター層132、他方の側に偶数のアウター層132を配置した中間膜13とすることもできる。なお、アウター層132を1つだけ設ける場合には、上記のように外側ガラス板11側に設けているが、これは、車外や屋外からの外力に対する耐破損性能を向上するためである。また、アウター層132の数が多いと、遮音性能も高くなる。
次に、マスク層110について説明する。図1及び図2に例示されるように、本実施形態では、マスク層110は、合わせガラス10の車内側の内面(内側ガラス板12の内面)130に積層され、合わせガラス10の周縁部に沿って形成されている。具体的には、図1に例示されるように、本実施形態に係るマスク層110は、合わせガラス10の周縁部に沿う周縁領域111と、合わせガラス10の上辺部から下方に矩形状に突出した突出領域112とに分けることができる。周縁領域111は、ウインドシールドの周縁部からの光の入射を遮蔽する。一方、突出領域112は、車内に配置される撮影装置2を車外から見えないようにする。
次に、図4を用いて、撮影装置(情報取得装置)2及び画像処理装置3を備える車載システム5について説明する。図4は、車載システム5の構成を例示する。図4に例示されるように、本実施形態に係る車載システム5は、上記撮影装置2と、当該撮影装置2に接続される画像処理装置3と、を備えている。
次に、発熱シート6について、図5及び図6を参照しつつ説明する。図5は発熱シートが取り付けられた撮影窓付近の拡大した平面図であり、図6は図5のA-A線断面図である。なお、図5では、後述する防曇シート7を省略しているが、図6では防曇シート7も示している。図5及び図6に示すように、発熱シート6は、台形状の第1基材フィルム61と、この第1基材フィルム61の上面に配置される発熱層(発熱体)62と、第1基材フィルム61の下面に配置される第1粘着層63と、を備えており、第1粘着層63によって、発熱シート6は、内側ガラス板12の車内側の面に貼り付けられている。すなわち、図5に示すように、本実施形態では、発熱シート6は、撮影窓113を覆うように、内側ガラス板12及びマスク層110上に配置される。すなわち、発熱シート6は、撮影窓113よりも大きい面積となっている。また、この発熱シート6の上辺及び下辺には、これら上辺及び下辺に沿って、帯状の第1電極81及び第2電極82がそれぞれ取り付けられている。第1電極81及び第2電極82は、正極及び負極の何れであってもよく、極が互いに反対であればよい。以下、各部材について詳細に説明する。
第1基材フィルム61は、透明の樹脂フィルムで形成され、例えば、ポリエチレンテレフタレート、ポリ塩化ビニル、ポリ塩化ビニリデン、ポリカーボネートや、アクリル系樹脂で形成することができる。そして、その樹脂には紫外線吸収剤が含有されていても良い。また、第1基材フィルム61の熱伝導率は、ガラス板11,12の熱伝導率よりも低いことが好ましい。これは、発熱層62の熱をガラス板11,12側に効率よく伝達するためである。第1基材フィルム61の熱伝導率がガラス板11,12の熱伝導率よりも小さいと、第1基材フィルム61が蓄熱体としての役割を果たし、ゆっくり放熱させることで、面内の均一な発熱が期待できる。したがって、第1基材フィルム61の熱伝導率が小さすぎると、蓄熱体としての役割を担えなくなるため、第1基材フィルム61の熱伝導率は、例えば、0.1W/m・K以上であることが好ましい。例えば、ポリカーボネートの熱伝導率は0.19W/m・Kである一方、フロートガラスの熱伝導率は、1.00W/m・Kである。したがって、ポリカーボネートは、蓄電体として優れていると考えられる。
発熱層62は、第1基材フィルム61の全面に亘って積層され、両電極に電圧が印加されたときに発熱する透明導電膜である。このような透明導電膜の材料としては、例えば、ITO、Sb及びFがドープされたSnO2、Al及びGaがドープされた酸化亜鉛、NbがドープされたTiO2、酸化タングステン等のTCO(Transparent Conductive Oxide)などを挙げることができるが、これらに限定されない。なお、TCOの抵抗は、例えば、3~200Ω/□とすることができる。3Ω/□より低いと発熱不足になり、防曇または解氷性能が不足するからである。一方、200Ω/□を超えると、異常発熱になるおそれがあり、ガラス板が割れたり、センサー等の機器に悪影響を及ぼすからである。
第1粘着層63は、第1基材フィルム61を内側ガラス板12に十分な強度で固定できるものであればよい。具体的には、常温でタック性を有するアクリル系、ゴム系、及びメタクリル系とアクリル系のモノマーを共重合し、所望のガラス転移温度に設定した樹脂などの粘着層を使用できる。アクリル系モノマーとしては、アクリル酸メチル、アクリル酸エチル、アクリル酸ブチル、アクリル酸ステアリル及びアクリル酸2エチルヘキシル等を適用することができ、メタクリル系モノマーとしては、メタクリル酸エチル、メタクリル酸ブチル、メタクリル酸イソブチル及びメタクリル酸ステアリル等を適用することができる。また、ヒートラミネートなどで施工をする場合には、ラミネート温度で軟化する有機物を用いても良い。ガラス転移温度は、例えばメタクリル系とアクリル系のモノマーを共重合した樹脂の場合、各モノマーの配合比を変更することによって調整することができる。
各電極81,82は、発熱層62上において、その上辺及び下辺に沿って帯状に形成されており、銅(またはスズメッキされた銅)、金、アルミニウム、マグネシウム、コバルト、タングステン、銀など、種々の材料で形成することができる。このうち、特に、電気抵抗率が3.0×10-8Ωm以下の材料である、銀、銅、金、アルミニウムを用いることが好ましい。そして、電極81,82は、例えば、スクリーン印刷などの印刷によって形成することができる。すなわち、銀ペーストなどを印刷によって塗布し、その後、乾燥を行うことで、電極81,82を形成する。電極81,82は、全ての部分を印刷などで一体的に形成してもよいし、上述した各種の材料で形成したシート状の材料を発熱シート6に貼り付けることで構成してもよい。図6では、各電極81,82に接続される配線を省略しているが、各電極81,82には適宜配線を施すことができる。
次に、防曇シート7について説明する。上述したように、防曇シート7は、発熱シート6を覆うように、発熱シート6に重ねて貼り付けられている。図6の例では、発熱シート6と防曇シート7とを同じ大きさにしているが、防曇シート7を発熱シート6よりも小さくしたり、あるいは大きくしたりすることができる。すなわち、防曇シート7の大きさは適宜変更することができる。また、防曇シート7が発熱シート6からはみ出して、ガラス板12上やマスク層110上に配置することもできる。
防曇層73は、合わせガラス10の防曇効果を奏するものであれば、特には限定されず、公知のものを用いることができる。一般的に、防曇層73は、水蒸気から生じる水を水膜として表面に形成する親水タイプ、水蒸気を吸収する吸水タイプ、表面に水滴が凝結しにくい撥水吸水タイプ、及び水蒸気から生じる水滴を撥水する撥水タイプがあるが、いずれのタイプの防曇層も適用可能である。以下では、その一例として、撥水吸水タイプの防曇層の例を説明する。
有機無機複合防曇層は、基材フィルムの表面に形成された単層膜もしくは積層された複層膜である。有機無機複合防曇層は、少なくとも吸水性樹脂と撥水基と金属酸化物成分とを含んでいる。防曇膜は、必要に応じ、その他の機能成分をさらに含んでいてもよい。吸水性樹脂は、水を吸収して保持できる樹脂であればその種類を問わない。撥水基は、撥水基を有する金属化合物(撥水基含有金属化合物)から防曇膜に供給することができる。金属酸化物成分は、撥水基含有金属化合物その他の金属化合物、金属酸化物微粒子等から防曇膜に供給することができる。以下、各成分について説明する。
吸水性樹脂としては特に制限はなく、ポリエチレングリコール、ポリエーテル系樹脂、ポリウレタン樹脂、デンプン系樹脂、セルロース系樹脂、アクリル系樹脂、エポキシ系樹脂、ポリエステルポリオール、ヒドロキシアルキルセルロース、ポリビニルアルコール、ポリビニルピロリドン、ポリビニルアセタール樹脂、ポリ酢酸ビニル等が挙げられる。これらのうち好ましいのは、ヒドロキシアルキルセルロース、ポリビニルアルコール、ポリビニルピロリドン、ポリビニルアセタール樹脂、ポリ酢酸ビニル、エポキシ系樹脂及びポリウレタン樹脂であり、より好ましいのは、ポリビニルアセタール樹脂、エポキシ系樹脂及びポリウレタン樹脂であり、特に好ましいのは、ポリビニルアセタール樹脂である。
撥水基による上述の効果を十分に得るためには、撥水性が高い撥水基を用いることが好ましい。好ましい撥水基は、(1)炭素数3~30の鎖状又は環状のアルキル基、及び(2)水素原子の少なくとも一部をフッ素原子により置換した炭素数1~30の鎖状又は環状のアルキル基(以下、「フッ素置換アルキル基」ということがある)から選ばれる少なくとも1種である。
撥水基を防曇膜に配合するためには、撥水基を有する金属化合物(撥水基含有金属化合物)、特に撥水基と加水分解可能な官能基又はハロゲン原子とを有する金属化合物(撥水基含有加水分解性金属化合物)又はその加水分解物を、膜を形成するための塗工液に添加するとよい。言い換えると、撥水基は、撥水基含有加水分解性金属化合物に由来するものであってもよい。撥水基含有加水分解性金属化合物としては、以下の式(I)に示す撥水基含有加水分解性シリコン化合物が好適である。
RmSiY4-m(I)
ここで、Rは、撥水基、すなわち水素原子の少なくとも一部がフッ素原子により置換されていてもよい炭素数1~30の鎖状又は環状のアルキル基であり、Yは加水分解可能な官能基又はハロゲン原子であり、mは1~3の整数である。加水分解可能な官能基は、例えば、アルコキシル基、アセトキシ基、アルケニルオキシ基及びアミノ基から選ばれる少なくとも1種であり、好ましくはアルコキシ基、特に炭素数1~4のアルコキシ基である。アルケニルオキシ基は、例えばイソプロペノキシ基である。ハロゲン原子は、好ましくは塩素である。なお、ここに例示した官能基は、以降に述べる「加水分解可能な官能基」としても使用することができる。mは好ましくは1~2である。
RmSiO(4-m)/2(II)
ここで、R及びmは、上述したとおりである。加水分解及び重縮合の後、式(II)により示される化合物は、実際には、防曇膜中において、シリコン原子が酸素原子を介して互いに結合したネットワーク構造を形成する。
無機酸化物は、例えば、Si、Ti、Zr、Ta、Nb、Nd、La、Ce及びSnから選ばれる少なくとも1種の元素の酸化物であり、少なくとも、Siの酸化物(シリカ)を含む。有機無機複合防曇層は、吸水性樹脂100重量部に対し、好ましくは0.01重量部以上であり、より好ましくは0.1重量部以上、さらに好ましくは0.2重量部以上、特に好ましくは1重量部以上、最も好ましくは5重量部以上、場合によっては10重量部以上、必要であれば20重量部以上、また、好ましくは50重量部以下、より好ましくは45重量部以下、さらに好ましくは40重量部以下、特に好ましくは35重量部以下、最も好ましくは33重量部以下、場合によっては30重量部以下となるように、無機酸化物を含むことが好ましい。無機酸化物は、有機無機複合防曇層の強度、特に耐摩耗性を確保するために必要な成分であるが、その含有量が多くなると、有機無機複合防曇層の防曇性が低下する。
有機無機複合防曇層は、無機酸化物の少なくとも一部として、無機酸化物微粒子をさらに含んでいてもよい。無機酸化物微粒子を構成する無機酸化物は、例えば、Si、Ti、Zr、Ta、Nb、Nd、La、Ce及びSnから選ばれる少なくとも1種の元素の酸化物であり、好ましくはシリカ微粒子である。シリカ微粒子は、例えば、コロイダルシリカを添加することにより有機無機複合防曇層に導入できる。無機酸化物微粒子は、有機無機複合防曇層に加えられた応力を、有機無機複合防曇層を支持する物品に伝達する作用に優れ、硬度も高い。したがって、無機酸化物微粒子の添加は、有機無機複合防曇層の耐摩耗性を向上させる観点から有利である。また、有機無機複合防曇層に無機酸化物微粒子を添加すると、微粒子が接触又は近接している部位に微細な空隙が形成され、この空隙から膜中に水蒸気が取り込まれやすくなる。このため、無機酸化物微粒子の添加は、防曇性の向上に有利に作用することもある。無機酸化物微粒子は、有機無機複合防曇層を形成するための塗工液に、予め形成した無機酸化物微粒子を添加することにより、有機無機複合防曇層に供給することができる。
防曇膜は、撥水基を有しない加水分解性金属化合物(撥水基非含有加水分解性化合物)に由来する金属酸化物成分を含んでいてもよい。好ましい撥水基非含有加水分解性金属化合物は、撥水基を有しない加水分解性シリコン化合物である。撥水基を有しない加水分解性シリコン化合物は、例えば、シリコンアルコキシド、クロロシラン、アセトキシシラン、アルケニルオキシシラン及びアミノシランから選ばれる少なくとも1種のシリコン化合物(ただし、撥水基を有しない)であり、撥水基を有しないシリコンアルコキシドが好ましい。なお、アルケニルオキシシランとしては、イソプロペノキシシランを例示できる。
SiY4(III)
上述したとおり、Yは、加水分解可能な官能基であって、好ましくはアルコキシル基、アセトキシ基、アルケニルオキシ基、アミノ基及びハロゲン原子から選ばれる少なくとも1つである。
防曇膜は、架橋剤、好ましくは有機ホウ素化合物、有機チタン化合物及び有機ジルコニウム化合物から選ばれる少なくとも1種の架橋剤、に由来する架橋構造を含んでいてもよい。架橋構造の導入は、防曇膜の耐摩耗性、耐擦傷性、耐水性を向上させる。別の観点から述べると、架橋構造の導入は、防曇膜の防曇性能を低下させることなくその耐久性を改善することを容易にする。
防曇膜にはその他の添加剤を配合してもよい。添加剤としては、防曇性を改善する機能を有するグリセリン、エチレングリコール等のグリコール類が挙げられる。添加剤は、界面活性剤、レベリング剤、紫外線吸収剤、着色剤、消泡剤、防腐剤等であってもよい。
有機無機複合防曇層の膜厚は、要求される防曇特性その他に応じて適宜調整すればよい。有機無機複合防曇層の膜厚は、好ましくは2~20μmであり、より好ましくは2~15μm、さらに好ましくは3~10μmである。
第2基材フィルム72は、透明の樹脂フィルムで形成され、上述した第1基材フィルム61と同様の組成の材料、または同様の物性を有する材料で形成することができる。また、第2基材フィルム72は、後述するように、発熱シート6から車内側への放熱を抑制し、ガラス板11,12側に熱を伝えやすくするため、ガラス板11,12よりも低い熱伝導率を有する材料であることが好ましい。具体的には、第2基材フィルム72の熱伝導率は、1.0W/(m・K)以下であることが好ましく、0.7W/(m・K)以下であることがさらに好ましく、0.5W/(m・K)以下であることが特に好ましい。
第2粘着層71は、後述するように、第2基材フィルム72を発熱シート6に十分な強度で固定できるものであればよく、上述した第1粘着層63と同様の材料で形成することができる。
第1保護シート74は、合わせガラス10の撮影窓113に固定されるまでの間、粘着層71を保護するものであり、例えば、シリコーンなどの離型剤が塗布された樹脂製のシートで形成されている。同様に、第2保護シート75は、合わせガラスの撮影窓に固定されるまでの間、防曇層73を保護するためのものであり、離型剤が塗布された樹脂製のシートで形成されている。いずれも公知の一般的な離型シートを採用することができる。
次に、ウインドシールドの製造方法について説明する。まず、所定の形状に形成された外側ガラス板11及び内側ガラス板12の少なくとも一方にマスク層110を積層する。続いて、これらのガラス板11,12が湾曲するように成形する。この方法は、特には限定されないが、例えば、公知のプレス成形により行うことができる。あるいは、成形型上に外側ガラス板11及び内側ガラス板12を重ねて配置した後、この成形型を加熱炉を通過させて加熱する。これによって、これらのガラス板11,12を自重により湾曲させることができる。
以上説明したウインドシールドによれば、次のような効果を得ることができる。
(1)発熱シート6が、撮影窓113を覆うように設けられているため、撮影窓113において、合わせガラス10が曇るのを防止することができる。また、発熱シート6によって合わせガラス10の解氷を行うこともできる。そのため、撮影装置2により、撮影窓113を介して光を受光する際、撮影窓113の曇りによって、光の通過に支障を来たし、測定が正確に行えないなどの不具合を防止することができる。その結果、情報の処理を正確に行うことができる。
次に、本発明に係るウインドシールドの第2実施形態について説明する。第2実施形態が第1実施形態と相違するのは、発熱シート6の構成であり、その他の構成は第1実施形態と同様であるため、説明を省略する。
以上、本発明の一実施形態について説明したが、本発明は上記実施形態に限定されるものではなく、その趣旨を逸脱しない限りにおいて、種々の変更が可能である。なお、以下の変形例は適宜組み合わせることができる。
発熱シート6における第1基材フィルム61,発熱層62、電極81,82の形状は特には限定されず、矩形ではない、台形状以外の形状でもよく、撮影窓の形状に合わせて適宜決定することができる。したがって、撮影窓113の形状も台形状以外でもよく、撮影装置2での撮影が可能であれば、適宜変更することができる。なお、ここでいう「矩形」とは、主として4つの辺を有し、隣接する辺が互いに直交している形状をいう。したがって、例えば、隣接する辺が必ずしも直交するように連結されていなくてもよく、隣接する辺を結ぶ角部が円弧状に形成されていたり、あるいは隣接する辺の間にこれらの辺と交差する1以上の短い辺が設けられていてもよい。また、各辺は、必ずしも厳密な直線でなくてもよく、全体として一方向に延びる直線状に形成されていればよい。例えば、各辺の少なくとも一部が波状に形成されていてもよい。したがって、本発明に係る発熱シート6は、このような矩形ではない形状とすることができ、上記のような台形のほか、多角形状に形成することもできる。そして、2つの電極が配置される対向する辺を有することが好ましい。2つの辺を有する場合には、上述した式(A)を充足するように辺の長さを規定することが好ましい。
第1基材フィルム61及び第1粘着層63を用いず、発熱層62を内側ガラス板12に直接積層することもできる。
第2実施形態では、第2電極82を分割しているが、分割電極の数は特には限定されない。但し、分割電極の数は、3以上であることが好ましい。これは、例えば、分割電極を発熱シート6の一辺の両端に設けた場合、中央が加熱しがたくなるため、少なくとも両端と中央に配置することが好ましい。さらに、第1電極81も分割することもできる。この場合でも、上記第2実施形態で示した各種の規定を適用することができる。また、上記実施形態では、発熱層62の上辺及び下辺に電極をそれぞれ設けているが、発熱層62において、概ね対向する辺に電極が設けられていればよい。その他、上記のような形態の電極に限られず、発熱体に給電を行うための給電部が設けられていてもよい。
上記実施形態の図6で示した層構成においては、赤外線反射膜を付加することができる。例えば、図6で示した防曇シート7において、第2基材フィルム72と防曇層73との間に透明な赤外線反射膜を配置することができる。あるいは、図6において、発熱シート6と防曇シート7との間に赤外線反射膜を配置することもできる。これにより、発熱シート6から発せられる熱が赤外線反射膜によって反射されるため、合わせガラス10側に付与される熱を増大することができる。なお、300K付近(約26℃)での放射強度ピーク波長は7μmであるので、このような合わせガラス10側へ熱を反射する効果を得るためには、例えば、1μm以上の波長を反射する赤外線反射膜を設ければよい。
上記実施形態では、発熱シート6を防曇シート7によって覆っているが、防曇シート7は、必ずしも必要ではない。すなわち、少なくとも発熱シート6の少なくとも一部がブラケット及びカバーによって覆われていればよい。
防曇シート7の代わりに、カバー部材によって発熱シート6を覆うこともできる。カバー部材は、例えば、防曇シート7の第2基材フィルム72と同様の材料で形成することができ、これを上述した第1粘着層または第2粘着層と同様の材料や物性の粘着層(第3粘着層)によって発熱シート6上に貼り付けることができる。こうすることで、発熱シート6から車内側への放熱を抑制することができる。あるいは、発熱シート6に、粘着層(第3粘着層)を介してカバー部材を取り付け、さらに、その上に防曇シート7を取り付けることもできる。なお、カバー部材は、発熱シート上に配置されるほか、発熱シートからはみ出してガラス板やマスク層110上に配置することもできる。したがって、第3粘着層は、発熱層62と電極(給電部)との段差、ガラス板とマスク層との段差、または第1基材フィルムと電極との段差に配置されることもあり、この場合には、上述した第1粘着層または第2粘着層と同様の厚みや粘着力にすることができる。
発熱層62は、粘着層を介して合わせガラスに直接取り付けることもできる。この場合、上述した第1基材フィルム61によって発熱層62を覆うことができる。さらに、その上に、防曇シート7を取り付けることもできる。
マスク層110の一部または全部を、合わせガラス10へ貼り付け可能な遮蔽フィルムで構成し、これによって車外からの視野を遮蔽することもできる。なお、遮蔽フィルムを内側ガラス板12の車外側の面に貼り付ける場合には、予備接着の前、または本接着の後に貼り付けを行うことができる。
上記実施形態では、本発明の情報取得装置として、カメラを有する撮影装置2を用いたが、これに限定されるものではなく、種々の情報取得装置を用いることができる。すなわち、車外からの情報を取得するために、光の照射及び/または受光を行うものであれば、特には限定されない。例えば、レーザレーダ、ライトセンサ、レインセンサ、光ビーコンなどの車外からの信号を受信する受光装置など、種々の装置に適用することができる。また、上記撮影窓113のような開口は、光の種類に応じて、マスク層110に適宜設けることができ、複数の開口を設けることもできる。例えば、ステレオカメラを設ける場合には、マスク層110に2つの撮影窓が形成され、各撮影窓に防曇シートが取り付けられる。なお、情報取得装置はガラスに接触していても接触していなくても良い。また、撮影窓113は、全周が閉じている必要はなく、一部が開放される形状であってもよい。
