Abstract

A glass melting tank comprising an elongated tank intended to contain molten glass, a tank having a melting zone to which the constituent material of the glass is passed, means for heating and, therefore, melting the contents of the tank into the melting zone, a refining zone beyond the melting zone, in the direction of the stream, in which the molten glass is refined, and a conditioning zone provided with an intake opening contiguous to the refining zone and an outlet opening at a working end of the tank through which the molten glass is removed, the conditioning zone having less depth than the refining zone, so that all the molten glass flowing through the conditioning zone can do so in the forward direction towards the working end, characterized by cooling means (24, 25) for cooling the glass in the conditioning zone, comprising the cooling means There is at least one fluid-cooled tube (24) extending through the base of the intake opening to the conditioning zone (15) and at least one additional fluid-cooled tube (25) in the intake opening. inlet to the conditioning zone (15) or close to said opening and located within the mass of the advancing glass in an adjustable position, to achieve a desired temperature profile in the opening of admission to the conditioning zone or near said opening .
