Summary of the invention
[inventing problem to be solved]
The parts that support to body in order to apply the force of compression of length direction herein, must have sufficient compressive strength.Yet, in general, there is the brick of higher compressive strength because thermal conductivity is larger, and easily discharge the heat in stove.On the contrary, although the fireinsulation brick thermal conductivity that patent documentation 2 is recorded is less, do not there is sufficient compressive strength, therefore cannot apply sufficient force of compression to molding.When molding is applied to the force of compression of necessity and sufficiency, produce the destroyed higher danger of fireinsulation brick.
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of heat of the molding that suppresses to discharge via the support component of molding, and suppress the manufacture method of sheet glass and the manufacturing installation of sheet glass by the caused distortion of thermal creep characteristic of molding.
[technique means of dealing with problems]
The manufacture method of sheet glass of the present invention is to make melten glass overflow and shunt from the upper surface of molding, at the lower end interflow of molding and the manufacture method of the sheet glass of continuous molding sheet glass.Molding is situated between every support component and heat insulating member, under the state of power that the both ends of the surface of the length direction of molding is applied to length direction, arranges.Support component contacts with molding.Heat insulating member does not contact with molding, and contacts with support component.Heat insulating member has the thermal conductivity little compared with support component, and, there is compressive strength more than 50MPa.
In the manufacture method of sheet glass of the present invention, the molding using in overflow downdraw applies at the two ends of the length direction from molding the state of power of length direction, is arranged in forming furnace.The central part of the length direction of molding has the tendency that results from thermal creep characteristic and easily hang down downwards.Therefore, by molding being applied to the force of compression of length direction, and be suppressed to the distortion of body.In addition, molding is situated between and is arranged in forming furnace every support component and heat insulating member.Specifically, molding, by a pair of support component, clips at the two ends of length direction.A pair of support component and then by a pair of heat insulating member, clips at the two ends of length direction.Molding is situated between every a pair of support component and a pair of heat insulating member, applies the force of compression of length direction by being arranged on the compressing mechanism outside forming furnace.Because the thermal conductivity of heat insulating member is less, the outside so the heat of the environment in forming furnace and the heat of molding are difficult for along heat insulating member to forming furnace discharges.Therefore, utilize heat insulating member, and be held in well the temperature distribution of the environment in body and forming furnace.In addition, the excessive temperature of the compressing mechanism of the heat molding discharging because of inside from forming furnace rises and surpasses the heat resisting temperature of compressing mechanism, and the situation of compressing mechanism breakage can be avoided by heat insulating member.In addition, heat insulating member has compressive strength more than 50MPa, can fully tolerate the force of compression of the length direction that molding is applied.Therefore, resulting from the distortion of molding of thermal creep characteristic is fully suppressed.In addition, preferably heat insulating member comprises mica.

In addition, heat insulating member must be arranged on the place of the heat resisting temperature that is no more than it.For example, can pass through to increase the thickness of support component, or support component is divided into a plurality of and between them, clips ceramic fiber paper at thickness direction, hinder the thermal conduction of each contact surface, and realize described situation.
The manufacture method of sheet glass of the present invention is to make melten glass overflow and shunt from the upper surface of molding, at the lower end interflow of molding and the manufacture method of the sheet glass of continuous molding sheet glass.Molding is situated between every support component and heat insulating member, and arranges under the state of power that the both ends of the surface of the length direction of molding is applied to length direction.Support component contacts with molding.Heat insulating member does not contact with molding, and contacts with support component.Heat insulating member comprises mica.
In the manufacture method of sheet glass of the present invention, the heat insulating member using for the heat in molding and forming furnace being difficult for discharge outside stove comprises mica.For example, wrap micaceous pottery and there is higher thermotolerance, lower thermal conductivity and higher compressive strength, as heat insulating member, there is excellent character.Therefore, by use, wrap micaceous heat insulating member, can more effectively reach the effect of distortion that is difficult for the effect that the heat in forming furnace is discharged outside stove and suppresses to result from the molding of thermal creep characteristic.
