Description

Verfahren zum Härten von optischen Gläsern Glasgegenstände lassen sich bekanntlich dadurch härten und damit bruchfester machen, daB man sie bis über den Erweichungspunkt erhitzt und dann schnell abkühlt.Process for tempering optical glasses leave glass objects It is well known that they harden themselves and thus make them more break-resistant, that they are up to about heated to the softening point and then rapidly cooled.

Die bislang für diesen Zweck angewendeten Verfahren gestatten jedoch nur mangelhaft die für das Gelingen der Härtung erforderliche genaue Temperaturführung, und überdies verlieren die Glasstücke bei der Härtung bzw. bei der vorangehenden Erweichung leicht ihre Form. Infolgedessen sind beispielsweise fertig oder nahezu fertig bearbeitete Linsen, Brillengläser o. dgl. mittels der bisherigen Verfahren nur sehr schwer zu härten.However, the procedures used so far for this purpose permit the exact temperature control required for the hardening to take place is inadequate, and moreover, the pieces of glass lose in the hardening or in the previous one Easily softening their shape. As a result, for example, are finished or almost Finished lenses, spectacle glasses or the like by means of the previous method just very difficult to harden.

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren, das die erwähnten Mängel weitgehend vermindert.The invention relates to a method which largely eliminates the aforementioned shortcomings reduced.

Sie schlägt zu diesem Zweck vor, die flachen Glasgegenstände, wie l=insen oder Brillengläser, auf der Oberfläche einer hoch erhitzbaren Flüssigkeit, z. B. eines Salzbades oder besser noch eines Metallbades, dessen Temperatur man genäu kontrollieren kann, schwimmen zu lassen und so auf die gewünschte Temperatur zu erhitzen. Die Erhitzung braucht dabei nicht bis zur Erweichung des Glases getrieben zu werden, sondern es genügt eine Erhitzung, bei der der sogenannte Transformationspunkt des Glases noch nicht überschritten wird. Das läBt sich praktisch ohne weiteres erreichen, wenn man z. B. die Gläser auf einem Metallbad (z. B. Wismut, Zinn, Zink) oder einer leicht schmelzbaren (Wood-)Legierung oder einem hochsiedenden Salzbade (z. B. Talliumnitrat, Wismuttribromid) schwimmen läßt Nachdem man die Gläser eine gewisse Zeit lang diesem Verfahren unterworfen hat, werden dieselben zum SchluB schnell abgekühlt.For this purpose, she suggests using flat glass objects, such as l = inses or glasses, on the surface of a highly heatable liquid, z. B. a salt bath or better still a metal bath, the temperature of which is can precisely control, swim and so on the desired temperature to heat. The heating does not need to be carried out until the glass has softened to become, but it is enough to heat the so-called transformation point of the glass is not yet exceeded. That can be done practically without further ado achieve if you z. B. the glasses on a metal bath (e.g. bismuth, tin, zinc) or an easily fusible (Wood) alloy or a high-boiling salt bath (e.g. tallium nitrate, bismuth tribromide) float After the glasses have a has been subject to this procedure for a certain period of time, the same will be concluded cooled quickly.

Die Siedetemperatur der verwendeten Bäder muB über oder bei der Temperatur liegen, auf die die Gläser zur Erreichung der gewünschten Härte erhitzt werden müssen.The boiling point of the baths used must be above or at the same temperature on which the glasses must be heated to achieve the desired hardness.

Das Verfahren hat den Vorteil, daB man auch fertiggeschliffene und polierte Gläser (Linsen, Brillengläser) härten kann, da durch die Berührung mit dem Salz- oder Metallbad eine Beschädigung der Glasoberfläche nicht eintritt.The method has the advantage that you can also finish-ground and Polished glasses (lenses, spectacle lenses) can harden because of contact with the salt or metal bath does not damage the glass surface.
