A glass bending line for quickly shaping a complex bent glass sheet is provided that includes moving a ring-type female mold, which has a heated glass sheet placed on it, and a full face heated male mold, toward one another. Upon making shaping contact between the glass sheet and the male mold, a vacuum is applied through holes extending through the male mold, for a time sufficient to form the glass sheet to a desired shape. When the glass sheet has been shaped, the vacuum is terminated and pressurized air is connected to the holes to release the bent glass sheet from the male mold. The bent glass sheet is then quickly transported to a quenching station or an annealing station on a continuous conveying device. Hence, the complex bent glass sheet is achieved without the use of a shuttle ring.

Method for manufacturing an optical unit (1) comprising a plurality of glass-sheets (2) having an aspherical shape, arranged superimposed and spaced apart to form a stack (10), comprising the steps of: - arranging either a pre-bent or a flat glass-sheet (2) on a reference surface (5) having the geometry desired to be reproduced; - cold-deforming said glass-sheet (2) so as to adhere it onto the reference surface (5); - integrating said glass-sheet (2) with a preceding element (4, 2) of said stack (10) in a predetermined relative position; and - repeating the preceding steps till stack completion. The integration step comprises fastening said glass-sheet (2) in a position spaced from the preceding element (4, 12) of the stack (10) by means of bars (3) arranged spaced apart from one another.
摘要:
A bent glass sheet shaping method which is capable of reducing occurrence of visibility distortions and a bent glass sheet with reduced visibility distortions. A glass sheet is heated to a shapeable temperature, a cover material is mounted onto a press die such that a direction of waves in the cover material is diagonal to a direction of distortions in the glass sheet, and the heated glass sheet with the press die is pressed.
