Abstract

PURPOSE:A core is drawn up, while the rotary furnace is rotated and the starting powder for quartz glass filled on the lower part of the furnace and the space between the core and the furnace wall is heated, thus producing the titled vessel with uniform thickness free from strain and high thermal and mechanical strength. CONSTITUTION:A rectangular core 11 is set in the rotary furnace 10 and the furnace is filled with a starting powder of quartz glass 14. The furnace 10 and the core is made to rotate coaxially and, when the rotation number reaches the level at which the forming operation can be done, the bush 19 is made to move upward to contract the core 11 instantly and drawn up it. Then, arc flame or gas flame is applied from the upper side to the powder 14 to melt it. Thus, a quartz vessel with uniform wall thickness, almost no strain, high thermal and mechanical strength is formed by the simple process.

Particularly in the case of a core with a square cross section, it is preferable to instantly reduce the outer diameter of the core so that it can be pulled out. The lower part of the rotary melting furnace and the gap between the core and the furnace wall are filled with quartz glass raw material powder, and while the furnace is rotated, this core is momentarily pulled out as described above, and then the quartz glass raw material powder is is heated and melted using an arc flame or gas flame to produce square quartz glass containers.

Next, as shown in FIG. 5.6, while rotating the rotary melting furnace 10, the core 11 is instantly shrunk and handled upward. Thereafter, the quartz glass raw material powder thus formed is heated by an arc flame or gas flame (not shown) in the upper part of the furnace.

The core 11 has a structure that can be instantly reduced. The rotating shaft 18 of the core 11 is connected to the rotating shaft 15 on the rotary melting furnace 10 side.
It exists on the same axis as the robot, allowing for synchronous rotation, and can be pulled upwards as needed.

For example, a pair of bushings 19.20 are vibably arranged on the rotating shaft 18, and a link 22 is pivotally supported on the bushings 19.20 and a support portion 21 at the top. A thick cloth 23 is pasted on the outside of these links 22. By moving the upper bushing 19, it can be instantly transformed into the expanded state shown in FIG. 3.4 and the contracted state shown in FIG. 5.6.

The number of rotations when the core 11 is pulled out varies depending on the size of the rectangular quartz glass container to be manufactured and the particle size of the raw material. For example, if the rotation speed is high, the molded product will not be able to maintain its square shape due to centrifugal force and will become round, and if it is low, the molded product will collapse, so care must be taken.
