Abstract

PURPOSE:To weld glass tubes with each other without displacing the center axis, by parallelly placing a pair of glass tubes facing the side faces close to each other, softening the part of the glass tube where a through hole is to be opened, forcibly welding the tubes with a pair of pincher heads and opening a hole on the welded part. CONSTITUTION:A pair of glass tubes 1 are placed in parallel facing the side faces close to each other. A part of the glass tube 1 where a through-hole is to be opened is heated and softened with a flame of a burner 6 applied to the tube through lower open end 11. One of a pair of pincher heads 8 is inserted into the glass tube 1 through the opened end 11 and the heated and softened part is forcibly pinched and welded to form a weld part 13. After removing the head 8, the weld part 13 is melted by heating. A hole to form a through-hole 12 is opened by the blasting pressure of the burner 6. The edge of the hole is stretched by the surface tension of the glass in the direction to expand the through-hole 12 and a built-up 11 is formed at the edge of the through-hole 12. At the same time, the built-up 11 is pushed outward by the blasting pressure of the burner 6 to weld the built-up parts with each other and to connect the glass tubes in a state hermetically separated from the outside of the tube.
