図8~10は、ガラス板12の製造方法を説明するための図である。図8は、ガラス板12の製造方法を示す工程図である。図9は、ガラス素材44の平面図であり、図10は、ガラス基材46の平面図である。
ガラス素材44には、まず図8のステップ(S10)で示す切断工程が実施される。切断工程(S10)では、切削装置を用いて図9の破線で示す各位置(1箇所の入光端面側の位置と3箇所の非入光端面側の位置)の少なくとも1箇所において切断加工が実施される。なお、切断加工は必ずしも1箇所の入光端面側の位置と3箇所の非入光端面側の位置のいずれかに対して実施されなくてもよく、いずれの箇所においても切断をおこなわずガラス素材44の形状をそのまま用いてもよい。
図8のように、切断工程(S10)が終了すると、第1面取り工程(S12)を実施してもよい。第1面取り工程(S12)では、研削装置を用いて光出射面26と入光端面28との間、及び光反射面32と入光端面28との間を面取り加工する。これにより、入光側面取り面40’(不図示)が形成される。また、第1面取り工程(S12)では、光出射面26と非入光端面38との間、及び光反射面32と非入光端面38との間を面取り加工し、非入光側面取り面42をそれぞれ形成する。
第1面取り工程(S12)が終了すると、次に研磨工程(S14)を実施してもよい。研磨工程(S14)では、図10に示すガラス基材46の入光端面28に対して鏡面加工が実施され、これによって入光端面28が形成される。
研磨工程(S14)が終了すると、次に必要に応じて第2面取り工程(S16)を実施してもよい。第2面取り工程(S16)では、第1面取り工程(S12)で形成したガラス基材46の入光側面取り面40’に対して再度面取り加工が実施され、これによって好適には第1交差点P1と第2交差点P2を結ぶ線分L1の長さが10μm以下である入光側面取り面40が形成される。
以上のS10~S16に示す各工程を経ることにより、ガラス板12が製造された後、好ましくは検査工程が実施される。検査工程においては、ガラス板12の特に入光端面28および入光側面取り面40の端面性状(寸法および表面状態)を、検査装置100により測定する。検査工程では好ましくはオンライン検査(全数検査)が行われ、検査装置100としては光学系測定装置が用いられることが好ましい。これにより、入光端面28全体を非破壊の状態で、高速度でかつ高い精度で測定することができる。
なお、入光側面取り面40のみを測定する場合、図10に示すZ方向、すなわち光出射面26に対向する方向に受光面が配置されてもよい。
以下に、実施例等により本発明を具体的に説明するが、本発明はこれらの例によって限定されるものではない。
上記研磨加工の後に、第2面取り工程を実施した。第2面取り工程では、第1面取り工程で研削した光出射面と入光端面との間、および光反射面と入光端面との間を再度、粒度表示#1500のダイヤモンド砥粒を含むレジンボンド砥石により面取り加工した。これにより入光側面取り面が得られた。
続いて、上記研磨加工の後に、第2面取り工程を実施していないガラス板について同様の評価を行った。
このガラス板の入光端面の拡大図を図13に示す。このガラス板について同様に第1交差点と第2交差点を結ぶ線分の長さL1を、キーエンス社製画像寸法測定器IM-6120を用いて測定したところ、32μmであった。また、第2交差点における面取り面の曲率半径R1を測定したところ、340μmであった。
