(the slow cooling method of glass article)
The slow cooling method of glass article of the present invention is the method that the slow cooling on glass article limit is carried on the limit.The slow cooling method of glass article of the present invention is characterised in that, make above-mentioned glass article pass opening and be transported to inside successively by a plurality of thermal chambers that adjacent each chamber are communicated with opening, and carry out slow cooling, adjacent above-mentioned each thermal chamber all makes each chamber adiabatic mutually with diathermic wall, and the temperature of the atmosphere gas of above-mentioned each chamber all is independent the setting.
In the slow cooling method of glass article of the present invention, be when the inside that glass article is transported to successively by a plurality of thermal chambers of adjacent each chamber being communicated with opening, to carry out slow cooling.The conveying of glass article for example, can be implemented with well known organizations such as band transfer rollers, also can suitably use hereinafter described thermal treatment unit when explanation thermal treatment unit of the present invention.Each adjacent thermal chamber all makes each chamber adiabatic mutually with diathermic wall, and glass article is then carried by the opening that is arranged on the diathermic wall.And the atmosphere gas temperature of each thermal chamber all is independent the setting.
The heat-insulating property that is used for each thermal chamber adiabatic diathermic wall can be in the physicals of the glass article of having considered to carry out slow cooling in slow cooling method of the present invention and suitably definite after the conditions such as temperature before and after the slow cooling.For example, the amount of thermal conduction of ideal diathermic wall is less than 1.5 * 10
-2W/ (m
2K), be preferably less than 7 * 10
-3W/ (m
2K).Here, the amount of thermal conduction of so-called diathermic wall is by the heat that unit surface flow through perpendicular to the thickness direction of diathermic wall, and by the ratio of the temperature head between the thermal chamber that diathermic wall separated.At diathermic wall is under the homogeneous material certain by the thickness situation about making, and is equivalent to the thickness of diathermic wall be multiply by the numerical value of the heat-conduction coefficient of above-mentioned materials.As for the object lesson of diathermic wall, will in the explanation of thermal treatment unit of the present invention, describe in detail.
Separate with diathermic wall by means of independent the setting, the temperature of the atmosphere gas of mutual each thermal chamber of adiabatic is even under the state that keeps constant glass transfer rate, also can correctly set the temperature in each thermal chamber, and then, very big temperature head can also be set between adjacent thermal chamber.Therefore, (length of stove is shorter) can carry out energy expenditure slow cooling seldom in narrow space.
In the slow cooling method of glass article of the present invention, the temperature of the quantity of thermal chamber and the atmosphere of each thermal chamber can suitably be determined after the temperature before and after the physicals of having considered the slow cooling glass article and the slow cooling.But, in practicality, the quantity of thermal chamber, for example in 5～15 scopes, and the temperature head of adjacent heat treatment chamber, then in 3～150 ℃ scope.
In addition, can also cool off a large amount of glass simultaneously.What is called is cooled off simultaneously, and comprise such two kinds of situations: many glass articles carry out the refrigerative situation concurrently; Make glass article successively by thermal chamber, the situation that a lot of glass article of total amount is carried out slow cooling.
If make the atmosphere temperature of above-mentioned each thermal chamber set more accurately, it is desirable to make the throughput direction of glass article is level, and diathermic wall is designed to vertical.
Each adjacent thermal chamber is communicated with by opening, it seems from the viewpoint that improves the heat insulating ability between each thermal chamber, preferably opening is limited in the inferior limit of the conveying that does not hinder glass article.From such viewpoint, the profile of glass article is seen from throughput direction when carrying on the section of the track drawing out, closing line with respect to the outermost edge portion that connects it, gap between above-mentioned line that forms on the short transverse and opening, be preferably in the 50mm, in the gap between formed e Foerderanlage and the opening on the width, left and right at throughput direction is preferably respectively in 10mm.Fig. 2 has represented this state.With respect to the closing line of the outermost edge portion that connects glass article, the gap between above-mentioned line that forms on the short transverse and opening it is desirable in 10mm.In the gap between formed e Foerderanlage and the opening on the width, left and right at throughput direction it is desirable to respectively in 3mm.
Glass slow cooling method of the present invention is well suited for the slow cooling that is used for by heating once more, softening the glass blank that reshapes, the perhaps slow cooling of press forming product and sheet glass.In addition, also be suitable for many glass articles are fed to the situation of carrying out slow cooling on the above-mentioned transfer passage successively, and contrast the situation that glass (for example, sheet glass) that the length of above-mentioned transfer passage also will grow carries out slow cooling.In addition, also be applicable to the slow cooling of opticglass.Particularly, when existing to adjust to the situation of prescribed value to the specific refractory power of opticglass and chromatic dispersion by means of slow cooling the time, in this case, hope is controlled accurately to the temperature changing process of glass in the slow cooling operation, so slow cooling method of the present invention is well suited for the slow cooling of this opticglass.
Reshaping in the glass blank of usefulness,, when reheat, can become opaque because of crystallization if in glass, contain nucleus by heating once more, softening.Therefore, when glass blank is carried out slow cooling, must be rapidly by generating the temperature range of nucleus.By means of above-mentioned slow cooling method since in the slow cooling operation change procedure of design temperature accurately, so can prevent the temperature control of devitrification effectively, thereby the glass blank that is suitable for glass blank and optical element shaping usefulness can be provided.
(heating means of glass article)
The heating means of glass article of the present invention are the heating means in the glass article course of conveying.The heating means of glass article of the present invention are characterised in that, make above-mentioned glass article by opening and be transported to inside successively by a plurality of thermal chambers that adjacent each chamber are communicated with opening, and heat, adjacent above-mentioned each thermal chamber all makes each chamber adiabatic mutually with diathermic wall, and the temperature of the atmosphere gas of above-mentioned each chamber all is independent the setting.
The heating means of glass article of the present invention, except heating in the process of carrying glass article, all the slow cooling method with glass article of the present invention is identical for all the other.Promptly, be temperature to be set at along the throughput direction of glass article reduce in the slow cooling method of glass article of the present invention, and it is relative therewith, be temperature to be set at along the throughput direction of glass article rise in the slow cooling method of glass article of the present invention, in addition, all the other boths are identical.
The heating means of glass article of the present invention are applicable to the thermoplastic method of glass article very much.Utilize modes such as press forming, external force is applied on the glass article after softening makes its shaping.Glass article is softening, be shaped, be configured as optical elements such as lens, perhaps be similar under the situation of blank of optical element shape, must when preventing its devitrification, make glass softening.When softening opticglass, to heat up more lentamente at low thermophase, do not allow glass breakage, and in glass, in the temperature range of generation nucleus, then will carry out rapid heating, so that do not make the devitrification of glass.According to the heating means of the invention described above, because the temperature changing process of feed glass article when heating up accurately, so, prevent to break and devitrification in, even in narrow space, also can heat, and can also save the electric power of heating usefulness glass article.
In addition, adopt the heating means of the invention described above, can also make the glass article crystallization.When making the glass article crystallization, glass article is heated up, also must make its cooling then.In this case, can be the use that combines of slow cooling method of the present invention and heating means.In addition, under the situation that slow cooling method of the present invention and heating means are combined, both can use a stove to carry out, and also can combine two stoves (slow cooling with and heating with) and carry out.
(manufacture method of glass molded article)
The manufacture method of first kind of glass molded article of the present invention, it is a kind of forming of glass that makes melten glass or softened through heating, and in the process of carrying the glass molded article that is obtained continuously, it is carried out the manufacture method of the glass molded article of slow cooling, it is characterized in that, make above-mentioned glass molded article pass opening and be transported to inside successively, and carry out slow cooling by a plurality of thermal chambers that adjacent each chamber are communicated with opening; Adjacent above-mentioned each thermal chamber all makes each chamber adiabatic mutually with diathermic wall; And the temperature of the atmosphere gas of above-mentioned each chamber all is independent the setting.
In the manufacture method of first kind of glass molded article of the present invention, the slow cooling operation of glass molded article can intactly be used the slow cooling method of the glass article of the invention described above, makes glass molded article carry out slow cooling.
In the manufacture method of first kind of glass molded article of the present invention, the manufacturing process of melten glass is had no particular limits.For example, three kinds of methods enumerating below can using.
(1) in bottom surface with maintenance level, in the mold that clips this opposed pair of sidewalls in bottom surface, the melten glass of casting continuously, be launched into tabular in, the surface is cooled off, after forming sheet glass, from being arranged on the lateral opening portion of mold, along the direction that is parallel to above-mentioned sidewall, pull out the method for sheet glass continuously.Because the sheet glass that pulls out is in this way carried out the successive slow cooling, wish that the throughput direction of the glass when slow cooling is a level.
This method is applicable to that thickness is the shaping of the above sheet glass of 7mm.Under the situation of thin thickness, exist owing to the increase of draw speed and can not guarantee that sheet glass reaches the possibility of target width., under the too thick situation of thickness,, expend a lot of times owing to will wait its viscosity to reach the degree that does not make glass deformation because of deadweight.According to the method described above, even when the very thick glass-pane shaping of thickness,, reach the degree of not being out of shape because of deadweight so can make glass on mold, be cooled to viscosity because the bottom surface of mold keeps level.
