Abstract
773,463. Bending glass sheets. GOOLD, L. L. (Libbey-Owens-Ford Glass Co.). July 28, 1955, No. 21764/55. Class 56 In the bending of glass sheets, particularly pre-cut flat blanks for deeply curved vehicle windshields, the flat sheet 12 is first placed on a support 66 well above the closed sectional mould 14, 15, all in the positions shown in chain lines in Fig. 7. The support is carried by elbow links 56 which are pivotally secured to other links 53 which themselves are carried by a cross shaft 46 to which the end section 14 is connected by arms 47, the shaft 46 being carried by links 18 pivoted at 43 to the stationary frame. On manually releasing the supporting means the weight of the glass causes the linkages to move to the full-line positions of Fig. 7 thereby opening the mould, the glass sheet now acting as a strut. As the sheet sags into the concavity of the mould. the linkages move from the full-line position of Fig. 7 to that shown in Fig. 6 and in this position the ends of the glass sheet are in contact with the mould end sections 14, the supporting means 66 having moved to below the top surfaces of the sections 14. Specification 746,401 is referred to.
