The content of the invention
[invention problem to be solved]
Herein, the part of formed body is supported to apply the compression stress of length direction must have sufficiently compression strong Degree.However, in general, the brick with compressive strength higher is larger due to pyroconductivity, and easily discharges the heat in stove.Phase Instead, although the hot-face insulation brick pyroconductivity described in patent document 2 is smaller, without sufficient compressive strength, therefore nothing Method applies sufficient compression stress to formed body.When the compression stress of necessity and sufficiency is applied to formed body, hot-face insulation brick quilt is produced The danger higher of destruction.
It is an object of the invention to provide a kind of heat of the formed body for suppressing and being discharged via the support member of formed body Measure, and the manufacture of the manufacture method and glass plate of the glass plate of deformation of the suppression as caused by the thermal creep characteristic of formed body is filled Put.
[technological means of solve problem]
The manufacture method of glass plate of the invention is melten glass is overflowed and is shunted from the upper surface of formed body, in shaping Collaborate and the manufacture method of the glass plate of progressive forming glass plate the lower end of body.Formed body is situated between every support member and heat insulating member, Apply to be set in the state of the power of length direction in the both ends of the surface of the length direction to formed body.Support member connects with formed body Touch.Heat insulating member is not contacted with formed body, and is contacted with support member.Heat insulating member has the heat transfer small compared with support member Rate, and, the compressive strength with more than 50MPa.
In the manufacture method of glass plate of the invention, the formed body used in overflow downdraw is in the length from formed body The two ends in direction apply in the state of the power of length direction, are arranged in forming furnace.The central portion tool of the length direction of formed body Result from thermal creep characteristic and easily hang down downwards.Therefore, by the compression to formed body applying length direction Power, and suppress the deformation of formed body.In addition, formed body is situated between being arranged in forming furnace every support member and heat insulating member.Specifically For, formed body is clipped by a pair of support members at the two ends of length direction.A pair of support members and then by a pair of insulations Part, clips at the two ends of length direction.Formed body is situated between every a pair of support members and a pair of heat insulating members, by being arranged on outside forming furnace Compression mechanism and apply the compression stress of length direction.Because the pyroconductivity of heat insulating member is smaller, so the ring in forming furnace The heat in border and the heat of formed body are difficult the outside release to forming furnace along heat insulating member.Therefore, using heat insulating member, and it is good The Temperature Distribution of the environment in formed body and forming furnace is kept well.In addition, being shaped because of the heat discharged from the inside of forming furnace The excessive temperature of the compression mechanism of body rises and exceedes the heat resisting temperature of compression mechanism, and the damaged situation of compression mechanism can be by thermal insulation Part is avoided.In addition, heat insulating member has the compressive strength of more than 50MPa, can be substantially resistant to by the length applied to formed body The compression stress in direction.Therefore, the deformation of formed body of thermal creep characteristic of resulting from is fully suppressed.Furthermore it is preferred that insulation Part includes mica.
