Abstract
905,629. Glass manufacture. ELEMELT Ltd. May 5, 1960 [May 5, 1959], No. 15289/59. Class 56. [Also in Group XII] To prevent deterioration of molten glass, a substantial proportion of the upwardly-presented surface of the glass is covered with a refractory material which floats on the surface and which it does not react with or contaminate. The glass melting chamber 10 contains a body 11 of molten glass, with its batch crust 13 covering the surface, which is melted by electric current through electrodes 12. The molten glass 11 passes by a duct 15 to the feeder chamber 16 which has a preheater, not shown, separated by a transverse wall 18 from which 'the molten glass 17 is fed, as by a plunger. The glass 17 in feeder chamber 16 is substantially wholly covered up to the wall 18 by a plurality of plates or blocks 23 which float freely on the surface of the glass. The blocks 23 are of fused solidified silica or sillimanite, or a mixture of alumina and silica heated and sintered. Refractory materials of higher specific gravity may be used in hollow form. Specifications 835,201 and 835,203 are referred to.
