A sheet-like glass element has a thickness less than or equal to 0.5 mm and an edge with an edge face intersecting opposite glass faces along two edge lines. The edge face has strip-like sections with each one adjoining a respective one of the edge lines. The strip-like sections interface along a boundary line that extends between the edge lines. The strip-like sections have a first section with a width ranging from 2 μm to 8 μm and have a first waviness that is lower than a second waviness of a second strip-like section. The second waviness decreases towards the edge line

Method and apparatus for removing a peripheral portion of a glass sheet. The glass sheet is placed in a predetermined position. A score line is formed on a major surface of the glass sheet. The score line demarcates a central region and a peripheral portion. A push bar is moved in a direction of a back-up bar assembly such to contact the major surface along the peripheral portion. The push bar is further moved in the direction to cause the peripheral portion to separate from the central region, and then become captured between the push bar and the back-up bar assembly. With some embodiments, the glass sheet is vertically oriented and the peripheral portion is not constrained during formation of the score line.

Systems and methods for automated, sequential processing of a continuous glass ribbon by conveying the glass ribbon in a ribbon travel direction, forming a score line in the glass ribbon, separating a glass sheet from the glass ribbon at the score line while supporting the glass sheet with a transfer device, lowering the glass sheet onto a conveyor, and conveying the glass sheet in a sheet travel direction differing from the ribbon travel direction. By transferring and then conveying the glass sheet in a direction differing from the ribbon travel direction (e.g., a 90 degree turn) immediately after glass sheet separation, the systems and method of the present disclosure are conducive to streamlined production of glass sheets utilizing a unique production floor footprint.
摘要:
Apparatus and method for producing a reliable breaking line for the industrial cutting to length of glass sheets by means of a cutting wheel running on a float glass line under pressure imposed from above, with the following features: a) the location of the beginning of a breaking line is determined and a cutting wheel holder (20) with a cutting wheel (2) is brought into position, b) the cutting wheel holder (20) is lowered and the cutting wheel (2) is lowered onto the glass sheet (1) concerned with the desired pressing pressure, wherein the pressing pressure is set by means of a swing arm (3) and is monitored by means of a strain gauge (4) secured thereto, c) a change in the height of the glass sheet (1) prompts a control signal for an actuating motor (12) to be derived from the change in the resistance of the strain gauge (4), and the actuating motor brings about a corresponding change in the pressing pressure of the cutting wheel (2).

A glass plate cutting machine 1 includes a cutter wheel 4 for forming a cut line 3 on a glass plate 2; a moving means 5 for moving the cutter wheel 4 along a cut line 3a which has been preset and is to be formed on the glass plate 2; a resiliently pressing device 6 for resiliently pressing the cutter wheel 4 against the glass plate 2; and a control unit 7 for controlling the resiliently pressing device 6 so as to alternately change over the intensity of a resiliently pressing force of that cutter wheel 4 with respect to the glass plate 2 in the movement of the cutter wheel 4 by the moving means 5.
摘要:
A random array of holes is created in an optical fiber by gas generated during fiber drawing. The gas forms bubbles which are drawn into long, microscopic holes. The gas is created by a gas generating material such as silicon nitride. Silicon nitride oxidizes to produce nitrogen oxides when heated. The gas generating material can alternatively be silicon carbide or other nitrides or carbides. The random holes can provide cladding for optical confinement when located around a fiber core. The random holes can also be present in the fiber core. The fibers can be made of silica. The present random hole fibers are particularly useful as pressure sensors since they experience a large wavelength dependant increase in optical loss when pressure or force is applied.

The invention relates to a marking machine for metallurgical products, more particularly continuous cast products, comprising at least one marking stamp and a striking device for striking the marking stamp into the product to be marked. The striking device is provided with a striking bolt and a striker spring driving said bolt. The striking bolt strikes the marking stamp that is placed in striking position by actuating the striker spring with an actuation element that is driven by an electric motor, thereby hammering the marking stamp into the product to be marked. Every time the marking stamp is subjected to the action of the spring, the stamp receives an evenly high kinetic energy thereby causing an evenly high striking depth of the marking. The spring in association with the electric motor drive enables fast, precise and easily controllable execution of the individual working steps of the machine. The ensures a high marking repetition rate.
摘要:
An apparatus for scoring a glass sheet includes a scoring wheel rotatably mounted to one end of a shaft mounted in a rod end ball joint and a spring acting on the other end of the shaft to urge the wheel toward a sheet movement path under a predetermined force. The glass sheet is advanced along the path under the scoring wheel to urge the scoring wheel against the biasing action of the spring. The axis of the scoring wheel is aligned in a plane normal and transverse to the movement path by the motion of the glass sheet as it advances under the scoring wheel.
