Abstract:
An arrangement for producing vacuum insulated glazing (VIG) unit and an evacuation cup suitable for such use as well as a method therefore is presented so as to provide a more uniform or homogeneous heating of the part of the glass pane containing the evacuation hole and possibly a soldering material arranged around the evacuation hole, in particular for the reason of preventing larger temperature gradients in the glass pane between the part covered by the evacuation cup and the remaining part and for avoiding excessive locale temperatures of the glass pane under the evacuation cup, which may be harmful the durability of the glass pane, in particular when the glass pane is made from tempered glass, where the tempering of the glass may be influenced by excessive temperatures.

Claim (Index 12):
Method for providing a vacuum to a vacuum insulated glazing (VIG) unit comprising two glass panes which delimit a void therebetween, wherein one of the glass panes includes an evacuation hole therethrough, the method comprising:\n arranging an evacuation cup on a first glass pane so that the evacuation hole is in fluid communication with a first cavity provided in a housing wall of the evacuation cup by a first opening of the first cavity, placing the VIG unit in a furnace, heating air of an interior of the furnace with the VIG unit to a first temperature, heating the housing wall of the evacuation cup to a second temperature by a first heating arrangement placed outside the first cavity of the evacuation cup while the air temperature of the furnace is at said first temperature, the second temperature being at least 5\u00b0 C. higher than the first temperature, and evacuating the void by pumping out the first cavity of the evacuation cup through a first conduit provided through the housing wall and in fluid communication with the first cavity.
