Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily discriminate between the top and reverse of a float glass plate by utilizing a difference in ultraviolet-ray reflection factor. CONSTITUTION:The reflection factor of the float glass plate 1 is about 1% larger on the reverse surface over a 220-320nm wavelength range than on the top surface. The glass plate 1 is irradiated with ultraviolet rays with desired wavelength from a light source 2 and its reflected light is detected by, for example, a photoelectric multiplier 3, whose detection signal is processed by a control board 4 to make a discrimination. The result of the discrimination is known by using pilot lamps 5 and 6 so that the pilot lamp 5 turns on to indicate, for example, the reverse surface and the pilot lamp 6 turns on to indicate the top surface.

A float glass plate has physically and chemically different properties on its front and back sides due to the plate-making process. However, when performing surface treatment or other processing on this float glass plate as a blank plate, it may be necessary to distinguish between the front and back sides before use. However, since the difference between the front and back surfaces is extremely small, it is currently difficult to distinguish between them.

As a result of various studies on this problem, the inventors of the present invention noticed that there is a slight optical difference sb between the front and back surfaces of a float glass plate, and the reflectance of these plates is slightly different, and this tendency is particularly noticeable in ultraviolet rays. This discovery led to the completion of the present invention.

F0-) The light reflectance of the glass plate is different between the back side that comes into contact with the tin bath surface and the front side that does not come into contact with the tin bath surface during the float molding process. Figure 1 shows the reflectance of the front and back surfaces of float glass when irradiated with ultraviolet rays. As is clear from the figure,
In the wavelength range of 220 to 320 nm, the reflectance of the front surface and the back surface tends to be about 1% higher.

In the present invention, this difference in reflectance is detected using, for example, a photomultiplier, and based on this, the front and back surfaces are discriminated, and the discrimination can be quickly performed electrically.

FIG. 2 shows an example of the case where the front and back surfaces of a shift float glass plate are discriminated according to the present invention. In this example, the front and back sides of a glass plate 10 conveyed by a conveyor are continuously determined. A light source 2 irradiates the glass plate 1 with ultraviolet rays of a desired wavelength, and the reflected light is emitted from a photomultiplier tube, for example. 3, and this detection signal is processed by the control panel 4 for discrimination.

The reflectance of the front or back surface of the glass plate 1 is set in advance on the control panel 4, and the reflectance detected by the photomultiplier tube 3 is compared with this set value to determine the reflectance of the glass plate 1. Distinguish whether it is the front or back side. The result of this discrimination is that if the indicator lights 5 and 6 illuminate, for example, 5, then the back side and 6.
When illuminated, it is detected as a surface.

In this case, the reflectance of the glass plate 10 may change slightly due to changes in the thickness of the glass plate, so the set value should be readjusted as necessary whenever the plate thickness or the lot of plate production changes. Make adjustments.

Furthermore, since the reflectance of the front and back surfaces of the glass plate 1 has a remarkable difference in the ultraviolet wavelength range of 220 to 320 nm as described above, the ultraviolet light used for detection is in this wavelength range.
