Abstract
A method and an apparatus for the heat treatment of a float glass ribbon in which a tunnel lehr is provided with arrays of parallel heat-exchange tubes above and below the path of the ribbon and for each of the longitudinally divided zones of these arrays, the tubes are grouped and provided with respective heaters at the upstream end of the zone while all of the tubes at the zone are connected to a flow at the downstream end for drawing the heated air through the tubes. The temperature of the glass ribbon is measured at the upstream end and the throughflow of the individual groups is controlled selectively to ensure a homogeneous temperature distribution in the glass ribbon.
Description
This invention relates to a process for the adjustment of the glass temperature in a float glass lehr with exchanging tubes. The invention also relates to a float glass lehr operated in accordance with this process.
Flat glass, manufactured in a continuous way, is conveyed through a heat insulated tunnel, called a float glass lehr, which is provided with heating means and with cooling means and in which glass is cooled and annealed.
In conventional float glass lehr, the cooling means are composed of a series of exchanging tubes arranged in two horizontal rows inside the tunnel, above and below the glass ribbon. These exchanging tubes are arranged in transverse batteries around in which air flows, initially at the ambient temperature, in the opposite direction to the glass travel direction. The heating means are electrical means and consist of bare or shielded wire heaters located between the exchanging tubes and the glass. The glass cooling can be modified by acting on the air flow rate; the heating can also be modified by acting on the power emitted by the wire heaters.
This glass temperature control process has a number of serious drawbacks especially when there is a ribbon of transparent glass and/or of glass with a highly reflecting coating on one face.
As a matter of fact, glass is a poor conductor of heat and during its cooling a noticeable temperature gradient appears between the surface and the middle part of the glass ribbon. If the glass is still plastic, the stresses created by the temperature gradient produce a deformation of the glass ribbon. If the glass is sufficiently cooled and perfectly elastic the temperature gradient creates internal stresses in the glass ribbon which remain since the ribbon is no longer plastic.
Experience shows that, in order to reduce as much as possible the effect of the temperature gradient, it is advisable to achieve an even glass cooling over the whole glass lehr length, i.e. the glass temperature should decrease approx. in a linear way. Now, it should be noted that when cold air is introduced at the inlet end of the exchanging tubes, the cooling is not at all even; glass is cooled much more rapidly at the outlet than at the inlet of the lehr zone concerned so that internal stresses are induced in glass in the middle of the annealing range.
On the other hand, glass is cooled more rapidly on the longitudinal edges than in the middle part. If, in order to remedy this transverse temperature gradient, the heating means located close to the longitudinal edges of the float glass lehr are put into operation, these heating means radiate on the adjacent cooling means; owing to this interaction it is difficult to achieve an optimum and uniform temperature over the whole width of the glass ribbon.
It is very difficult to remedy these drawbacks as the cooling means have a very long response time whereas the electrical heating means have a relatively short response time and can cause glass overheating when they are brought into operation.
The object of this invention is to provide a process for the adjustment of the glass temperature in a float glass lehr which remedies these drawbacks.
According to the invention, the temperature is adjusted by means of the exchanging tubes only, heated air being admitted at the inlet of these tubes.
If relatively hot air enters the tubes, it is possible to achieve a heat-up of the float glass lehr or to keep it at temperature without glass. If cooler air, at a temperature below the glass temperature, enters, it is possible to cool the glass during continuous production and to achieve an even glass cooling.
The air flowing in the tubes can circulate in an open circuit or in a closed circuit.
This invention also relates to a float glass lehr operated by this process.
According to the invention there is provided a float glass lehr the special feature of which is that it comprises means for heating the air introduced into the exchanging tubes.
These heating means can be either electrical means or burners or can consist of indirect exchangers with heat exchanging medium.
If the air which flows in the tubes circulates in a closed circuit, the float glass lehr can also include means for cooling the recirculated air. These means can, for example, consist of a cold air introduction system or of indirect exchangers with cooling fluid.
FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of a zone of a first embodiment of float glass lehr according to the invention;
FIG. 2 is a longitudinal section through a part of this zone; and
FIG. 3 is a view similar to FIG. 1 of a second embodiment of float glass lehr according to the invention.
The first embodiment of a float glass lehr, according to the invention, shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 comprises a heat insulated tunnel 1 that is provided with rollers 2 supporting a glass ribbon 3 travelling in the direction of arrow f1.
The lehr is divided into successive zones over its length. In each zone, it comprises two horizontal rows of longitudinal exchanging tubes 4a and 4b, one arranged above and the other below the ribbon 3. Each row of mutually parallel coplanar transversely spaced tubes is divided transversely into batteries which there are five in number in the form of float glass lehr shown herein, each battery comprising a plurality of tubes.
The inlet of each battery of tubes, located at the downstream side of the zone concerned (with respect to the direction of movement of the glass ribbon) is connected to a flow control valve 5 and to heating means 6, for example with burners in which cold air is admitted in 7. The outlet of the tubes is connected to a collector 8 at the suction side of a fan 9 supplying a secondary heat recovery system.
Air thus circulates in the opposite direction to the glass travel direction.
A sensor 10 measures the glass temperature at the zone outlet side and acts by means of control systems (not shown) on the valves 5 and on the heating means 6.
By acting on the valves and on the heating means of the different batteries it is possible, for example, to heat the external edges of the sheet 3 and to cool the middle zone.
In its major principles, the form of float glass lehr shown in FIG. 3 is similar to that shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 but the air circulates in a closed circuit. The outlets of the fans 9 are connected by a pipe to a collector 12 supplying the various heating means 6. A hot air exhaust piping 14 and a cold air inlet piping 13 are connected on both sides of the fan. The air flow and the cooling capacity variation are then obtained by varying the speed of the fans 9, the cold air flow admitted through the piping 13 and the hot air flow exhausted through the piping 14. The hot air exhaust is connected to a secondary heat recovery system. .[.What we claim is.].
