1. A luminous vehicle glazing, comprising:
- a first sheet comprising mineral or organic glass comprising a first main face, a second main face, and an edge;
a peripheral light source with comprising an emitting face selected from an optical fiber and light emitting diodes each comprising a semiconductor chip on one support section of the diodes, the emitting face facing a side of the second main face, which is an injection side for a propagation of an injected visible and/or ultraviolet (UV) light in the thickness of the first sheet, the first sheet then guiding the injected light, wherein the injection side is optionally partly recessed or comprises a setback;
a luminous zone formed by a surface diffusion extractor of the first and/or second main face, each of which extracts the guided light via the first and/or the second main face, or a volume diffusion extractor in the first sheet, and/or a luminophore on the first and/or second main face, each of which converts injected UV light to visible light via the first and/or the second main face;
optionally a peripheral functional element, bonded to the first sheet, which is a fluid-tight, overmolding or a fluid-tight preassembled element;
a fluid-tight cap, which covers the peripheral source and is impermeable to liquid water or water vapor, wherein the fluid-tight cap, essentially faces the second face, and is joined by a fastening element to the first sheet, and/or to a connecting part bound to the first sheet, and optionally to the peripheral functional element,wherein the cap comprises an inner face oriented toward the second main face, the cap being associated with an interfacial sealing element, for the fluid-tight interfacial sealing, which is impermeable to liquid water or water vapor, and which is arranged between the cap and the connecting part and optionally between the cap and the peripheral functional element or integrated with the cap, or integrated with the connecting part or integrated with the first sheet.

Abstract
A luminous vehicle glazing containing: a first sheet having a first and a second main face; a peripheral light source, the emitting face facing an injection side, which is a side of the second face; a surface diffusion extractor, which extracts the guided light via the first and/or the second main face, or a volume diffusion extractor in the first sheet; a fluid-tight cap, which covers the peripheral light source and is impermeable to liquid water or water vapor, wherein the cap is a facial cap, faces the second face, joined by a fastening element, and associated with an interfacial sealing element.
