Device for reversibly fastening a panel to a structure so as to obtain a window in that structure, a vehicle, and a method

A vehicle comprising:

• a structure having a peripheral wall defining a window with a peripheral edge of the wall extending around a perimeter of the window;
• a panel sized to close off the window, the panel and the peripheral wall defining a channel therebetween such that the channel extends around the perimeter of the window;
• a device positioned about the peripheral wall and within the channel, the device having a plurality of studs and two extraction wires, each stud having two longitudinal orifices, each wire passing through a respective longitudinal orifice in each stud and extending within the channel, the studs spaced apart from one another along the extraction wires, each extraction wire having an end that is positioned outside the channel, wherein the two longitudinal orifices of each stud and the two wires are adjacent to and aligned with the peripheral edge of the wall to extend about the perimeter of the window;
• and
• a bead of adhesive provided within the channel and extending about the perimeter of the window and adhesively bonding the panel to the peripheral wall, the bead of adhesive extending around the plurality of studs such that each stud is fully embedded within the adhesive between the panel and the peripheral wall, the bead of adhesive surrounding and in contact with the two extraction wires in between the studs;
• wherein the device is configured to reversibly fasten the panel to the structure such that each extraction wire is configured to be transversely pulled from the respective longitudinal orifice in each stud and slice through at least a portion of the bead of adhesive when a respective end of the wire is pulled to remove the panel.
