Abstract

839,482. Centrifuging of glass fibres. OWENS-CORNING FIBERGLAS CORPORATION. May 16, 1957 [May 18, 1956; May 21, 1956], No. 15597/57. Class 56. In the making of glass fibres by the centrifugal process heat, wholly or mainly radiant heat, is provided to the zone about, and bordering, the spinner. In the form shown, the heater 28 is a gas-heated radiator arranged below the outlet of the attenuating blast 25. In another form, the radiator is above such blast. The radiator may alternatively be heated by an electric resistance or it may be a ring forming one plate of a dielectric heater, the spinner forming the other plate connected to the H.F. generator. In another form the heater may comprise air induction coil surrounding the spinner and provided with a cooling jacket. In another form Fig. 6, the attenuating blast is omitted and the attenuation effected by the traction of the winding spool 143, the radiant heat being provided by generator 133 and coil 132.
