Abstract

PURPOSE:To bond efficiently a sealing metal fixture to a glass tube, by dipping an annular part of the sealing metal fixture in molten glass, lifting the sealing metal fixture, sticking the molten glass thereto, pulling up the glass in the cylindrical form, breaking the glass, heat softening the mouth part, and fusing the end part of the glass tube. CONSTITUTION:A sealing metal fixture 6 is held by a lifting and lowering device 3, and lowered, and an annular part (6a) of the metal fixture 6 is dipped in molten glass 2. The lifting and lowering device 3 is then lifted to stick the molten glass 2 to the annular part (6a), and the glass 2 is pulled up in the cylindrical form, cooled and solidified to give a cylindrical glass 7, which is then broken in the horizontal direction by a breaking tool 5 at a position below the annular part (6a). The broken part is then softened by heating to form a glass clad 8. The end part of the glass 9 is then brought into contact with the resultant glass clad 8, and fused under heating to bond the sealing metal fixture 6 to the glass tube 9 and produce a vacuum tube, etc.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) In the case of the above-described bonding method, the glass (103) pulled up into a cylindrical shape is melted with the flame of the gas burner (104). Part of it (103
Part a) will remain at the end, and in order to melt this part (+03a), the firepower must be further strengthened, which complicates the control of flame strength, movement speed, etc., and poses a hindrance to automation. Further, even after melting, a sagging portion (105a) is formed in a part as shown in FIG. 5(C), and a bump (107) is formed after the glass tube (1013) is welded. This bump (107)
does not affect the function of the vacuum tube in any way, but it concentrates stress,
This may cause damage during transportation or assembly.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, according to the present invention, molten glass is attached to the annular portion of the sealing fitting and pulled up into a cylindrical shape, and the cylindrical glass is cut by a machine without using a gas burner or the like. Since the glass cladding is formed by hitting the glass and burning the broken part, it does not require the equipment required for conventional flame melting, such as oxygen, acetylene gas supply equipment, piping, automatic valves, torches, etc. Control cables, ignition confirmation devices, gas leak detectors, torch feeding devices, etc. are all unnecessary, making automation extremely easy. In addition, even though the broken part has a saw-tooth shape, the unevenness is uniform, so it is possible to form a glass cladding with a uniform thickness around the entire circumference by later baking, which eliminates the bumps that were previously seen. It has many effects such as preventing the occurrence of
