    Abstract: In some embodiments, apparatus and methods for forming a glass ribbon can comprise a support member to move a draw stack along a support surface. In some embodiments, a housing can define an exterior area positioned outside of the wall of the draw stack and between the downstream portion of the draw stack and the housing. The housing can comprise a vent configured to regulate gas flow through the vent from the exterior area to a location outside of the housing and outside of the draw stack. In some embodiments, the draw stack can comprise first gate and a second gate. Each gate can be provided with a corresponding row of conduits to cool a central edge plate.

    Abstract: Apparatus can comprise a conduit with at least one slot of a plurality of slots comprising an intermediate length including a maximum width that is less than a maximum width of a first end portion and/or a maximum width of a second end portion of the slot. In some embodiments, methods produce a glass ribbon with an apparatus comprising at least one slot within a peripheral wall of a conduit. In some embodiments, methods are provided for determining a volumetric flow profile dQ(x)/dx of molten material flowing through a slot in a peripheral wall of a conduit. In some embodiments, methods and apparatus provide a slot extending through an outer peripheral surface of a peripheral wall of a conduit that can comprise a width profile d(x) along a length of the slot to achieve a predetermined volumetric flow profile dQ(x)/dx of molten material through the slot.

    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a method for forming a laminated glass sheet includes forming a multi-layer glass melt from a molten core glass and at least one molten cladding glass. The multi-layer glass melt has a width Wm, a melt thickness Tm and a core to cladding thickness ratio Tc:Tcl. The multi-layer glass melt is directed onto the surface of a molten metal bath contained in a float tank. The width Wm of the multi-layer glass melt is less than the width Wf of the float tank prior to the multi-layer glass melt entering the float tank. The multi-layer glass melt flows over the surface of the molten metal bath such that the width Wm of the multi-layer glass melt increases, the melt thickness Tm decreases, and the core to cladding thickness ratio Tc:Tclremains constant as the multi-layer glass melt solidifies into a laminated glass sheet.

    Abstract: Method and apparatus for making a glass tube 205 comprising the step of flowing molten glass 121 into a trough 201 such that the molten glass includes a free surface 614 within the trough, wherein a portion of the molten glass with a corresponding portion of the free surface overflows an endless weir 613 to form a molten glass tube 205 flowing down a cylindrical surface 603. The glass tube making apparatus comprises an endless weir 613 configured such that a free surface 614 of molten glass 121 within a trough 201 may overflow the endless weir 613 to form a molten glass tube 205 flowing down a cylindrical surface 603.
