Disclosed is an interlocking glazing panel comprising a pair of transparent or translucent lites, and rigid structural spacer located between, and firmly attached to, said lites to define a gap therebetween, said rigid structural spacer extending around at least part of the periphery of said glazing unit and having over at least a portion thereof an interlocking profile to provide a firm interlocking connection to another interlocking panel having a complementary like interlocking profile, wherein said glazing panel can be inserted as a structural member in a wall or roof constructed of interlocking panels.

E06B 3/24 - Single frames specially adapted for double glazing
A glazing unit has a at least one self-supporting insert of light-transmissive insulation material in the form of honeycomb arrangement of cells sandwiched in a gap between a pair of glass lites. A granular, light-transmissive, thermally insulating filler, such as silica aerogel, substantially fills the cells.

B32B 3/12 - Layered products comprising a layer with external or internal discontinuities or unevennesses, or a layer of non-planar shapeLayered products comprising a layer having particular features of form characterised by a discontinuous layer, i.e. apertured or formed of separate pieces of material characterised by a layer of regularly-arranged cells whether integral or formed individually or by conjunction of separate strips, e.g. honeycomb structure
A method of making a composite light diffusing panel including at least spaced apart lites with a fabric layer applied to an inner surface of at least one of said lites, involves applying a transparent adhesive to the layer of fabric or the lite(s), firmly applying the layer of fabric onto the lite(s) to avoid wrinkling fabric, curing the adhesive to bond the fabric to the lite(s), and assembling the lites to form the light diffusing panel. In this way, a functionally useful product can be obtained that does not suffer from wrinkling and other distracting effects.
