TRIM BREAKER HAVING METALLIC INSERT FOR DECREASED GAS PERMEATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240051268 titled 'TRIM BREAKER HAVING METALLIC INSERT FOR DECREASED GAS PERMEATION
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a vacuum insulated structure that includes a trim breaker with a wrapper channel and a liner channel. An inner liner is attached to the trim breaker at the liner channel, and an outer wrapper is attached to the trim breaker at the wrapper channel. A metallic plate is placed within the trim breaker, creating an internal barrier to prevent gas permeation.
- The patent application describes a vacuum insulated structure with improved gas permeation prevention.
- The structure includes a trim breaker with a wrapper channel and a liner channel.
- An inner liner is attached to the trim breaker at the liner channel.
- An outer wrapper is attached to the trim breaker at the wrapper channel.

Original Abstract Submitted
a vacuum insulated structure includes a trim breaker having a wrapper channel and a liner channel that extend perimetrically about the trim breaker. an inner liner is attached to the trim breaker at the liner channel. an outer wrapper is attached to the trim breaker at the wrapper channel. a metallic plate is disposed within the trim breaker and extends from a first area proximate the liner channel to a second area proximate the wrapper channel. the metallic plate defines an internal barrier to gas permeation through the trim breaker.
