摘要： Process for removing peripheral portions such as bead regions of a glass sheet including a step of pushing the glass sheet in the peripheral portion using a pushing mechanism such as a pushing bar, and corresponding apparatus. As a result of the use of the pushing mechanism, the engagement completion time for suction cups, if used, are reduced significantly. A process without using suction cups is enabled with enhanced yield. The increased process stability and enlarged process window are particularly advantageous for processing glass sheets having high flexibility.

摘要： Methods and apparatuses for separating sheets of brittle material are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a separation apparatus for separating a sheet of brittle material includes a first separation cam positioned adjacent to a sheet conveyance pathway and a second separation cam positioned opposite from and downstream of the first separation cam. The first and second separation cams may be rotated such that the contact faces of the separation cams periodically extend across a centerline of the conveyance pathway. Rotation of the first and second separation cams may be synchronized such that at least the portion of the contact face of the first separation cam and at least the portion of the contact face of the second separation cam periodically extend across the centerline of the conveyance pathway at a separation time and periodically do not extend across the centerline of the conveyance pathway at a non-separation time.

摘要： In the method for loading a glass processing installation (5) with loading portions (10a), glass plates (10, 10b) are extracted repeatedly from a storage unit (20) in a predetermined sequence and divided into a residual portion (10b), which is stored in the storage unit, and a loading portion (10a), which is delivered to the glass processing installation. It is thereby possible to selectively load the glass processing unit with portions of glass plates of certain dimensions and of a determined sort. The device for loading a glass processing installation comprises a storage unit (20) with at least two compartments (21), each compartment being capable of receiving at least one glass plate (10, 10b), and displacing means for displacing a glass plate in a compartment at least partially out of the compartment.

摘要： A portable, one man operated large sheet glass handling and cutting table which includes a portable frame and a tiltable table top that can be swung from a horizontal position into an upright position where the plane of the table top is inclined at an angle of about 5* from a vertical plane. Novel means is provided for removing a large sheet of glass or other material edgewise from a casing and pulling this sheet onto the table top while it is in an upwardly and slightly inclined position, the table top being provided with a plurality of rubber rollers disposed adjacent to the lower edge of the table top for supporting the lower edge of the glass sheet. These rubber rollers can individually be moved from operative to inoperative position and vice versa. A plurality of spherical balls are removably mounted in spaced arrangement over the table top for supporting the large glass sheet above the table top. The table top can handle flat sheet material other than glass if desired.

摘要： The forming of a heated spot (10) by using a laser beam irradiated to a brittle substrate along a predetermined scribing line (S) and the ejecting of a cooling medium, after interruption of irradiation of laser beam, to impinge on the spot to thereby form a cooled spot (20) constitute a unit operation to be repeated. The cooled spot overlapping the heated spot (10) that has a longitudinal center line (b) crossing the scribing line (S) at a right angle serves to restore thermal equilibrium in and around the spots while forming unit cracks (n) continued one from another to form a linear crack (E,U) perpendicular to the brittle substrate surface.
