Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the uniform part of thickness in width direction of a glass plate from being diminished by molding molten glass into a plate and pulling the obtained glass plate down via a cooler by tension rollers. CONSTITUTION:Homogeneous molten glass 3 is supplied to the recessed part 2a of a molded body 2, overflowed and allowed to fall down on the surface 2b and the rear 2c of the molded body 2 from the slitlike opening of the upside of the recessed part 2a and then joined in the lower end part of the molded body 2 to obtain a glass plate 4. After the edge parts of both sides of this glass plate 4 are cooled by a cooler 5 provided via the space for the glass plate 4, the glass plate 4 is pulled down by a pair of tension rollers 11.

2. Description of the Related Art As a method for manufacturing a glass plate, a downdraw system is known in which the glass plate is pulled vertically downward. In the case of the down draw method, the molten glass is supplied to the top of the wedge-shaped molded product having the front and back surfaces that are close to each other at the lower end, and the molten glass is split into the front and back surfaces of the molded product, and then merged at the lower end of the molded product. Then, the glass plate is formed by pulling the glass downward with a pulling roller while cooling.

However, in the glass plate manufacturing method as described above, the width of the glass plate shrinks due to the surface tension at the same time as the glass leaves the molded body. As a result, bulges (ball edges) occur on both side edges of the glass plate, so these ball edges are discarded, and only the central portion (for example, the portion where the thickness falls within a predetermined value ± 0.1 mm) is put to practical use. It will be. If the above-mentioned contraction is large, the central portion except for the cut-off side edges becomes small, resulting in poor efficiency.

As a means for solving this drawback, Japanese Patent Publication No. 3
The one described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 8-17820 has been proposed. This is because a cooler is provided near the furnace wall below the molded body to cool the glass sheet when it separates from the molded body, and a glass is provided by a knurled ring provided immediately below the lower end of the molded body. It holds both side edges of the plate. With such a structure, it is intended to increase the viscosity of the glass and prevent the width of the glass plate from shrinking.

However, in the one disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 38-17820, since the cooler is provided over the entire width of the glass plate, the entire width of the glass plate is cooled. If the central portion of the glass plate is also cooled in this manner, the warp quality is deteriorated due to thermal strain due to rapid cooling, which is not preferable.

Further, since this cooler is provided near the furnace wall apart from the glass plate, the cooling efficiency is low. Even if the cooler is to be provided near the glass plate, it cannot be provided too close in the above configuration because the knurled wheel that holds the glass plate interferes. For this reason, the shrinkage of the glass plate cannot be sufficiently suppressed, and bulges occur on both side edge portions.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to increase the width of a glass sheet to be formed so that a portion having a uniform thickness can be increased and to produce a glass sheet having good warp quality. An object is to provide a plate manufacturing apparatus and a manufacturing method.
