Benefits of technology

The technical effect of this patented method or device described by the inventors can be improved manufacturing efficiency for various products such as electronic components that are being made up from multiple layers of materials. This results in fewer steps needed during production compared with traditional ways where each layer was separately produced beforehand.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical problem addressed in this patents relates to improving the stability and durability of decorative materials used around windows like fiber-reinforced composite panels called fiberglasquidcarsenic ("FUSE") due to their unique properties including low coefficient of thermal expansion compared to other alternatives commonly found within building codes. Additionally, these compositions require specific conditions during manufacturing processes when they solidify into desired shapes without damaging them over time.

Abstract

A door includes a door frame, first and second door skins having rectangular outer peripheries and inner openings, and a frameless glazed unit received at the openings. The door skins include exterior surfaces facing away from the door frame and opposite interior surfaces facing and secured to opposite sides of the door frame. The exterior and interior surfaces of the first and second door skins establish integral lips and grooves of the first and second door skins Opposite sides of the frameless glazed unit directly contact and are sealed by the integral lips and sealant and/or adhesive contained in the grooves of the first and second door skins.
