Frame solution with gasket abutting VIG unit surface

An aperture cover, wherein the aperture cover comprises:

• a vacuum insulated glass unit comprising a first glass sheet and a second glass sheet, wherein an evacuated gap is placed between the first and second glass sheets, wherein a plurality of support structures are distributed in the evacuated gap, wherein an edge seal encloses the evacuated gap, wherein the edge seal comprises a rigid, fused edge seal, wherein the vacuum insulated glass unit comprises outer major surfaces, and
• a frame, wherein the frame comprises a fixation frame and a sash which is fixed to the vacuum insulated glass unit, and wherein the sash is movably connected to the fixation frame by means of a hinge connection,
• wherein the fixation frame comprises elongated frame members defining a frame opening, wherein the vacuum insulated unit is configured to overlap a surface of at least one elongated frame member of the fixation frame, at least when the sash is in a closed position, and wherein the sash comprises a sash profile which is fixed to the vacuum insulated glass unit at a part of the vacuum insulated glass unit that overlaps and/or extends beyond the overlapped elongated frame member,
• wherein a resilient sealing gasket is arranged between the overlapped elongated frame member and the vacuum insulated glass unit, wherein the resilient sealing gasket is configured to abut an interior major surface of the vacuum insulated glass unit when the sash is in a closed position, and wherein the interior major surface of the vacuum insulated glass unit is configured to compress the resilient sealing gasket when moving the sash from an open to a closed position,
• wherein the sash profile is elongated and attached to the interior major surface of the vacuum insulated glass unit by means of a bonding seal;
• wherein a resilient sealing is placed between a protection wall and an edge surface of the vacuum insulated glass unit.
