In some embodiments, the edge roller device 125 may be disposed closer to the groove 123 than the pulling roller device 200. The positions of the edge roller device 125 and the pulling roller device 200 can be interchanged.

根據示例性具體實施例的牽拉輥設備200可以具有藉由向玻璃片賦予橫向拉伸張力而作為牽拉輥設備的功能,並且還可以具有諸如防止玻璃帶124寬度尺寸的衰減的邊緣輥設備的功能,為此,可以對與玻璃片正反面接觸的輥201的取向進行各種調整。The pulling roller device 200 according to the exemplary embodiment may have a function as a pulling roller device by giving a transverse stretching tension to a glass sheet, and may also have an edge roller device such as preventing attenuation of the width dimension of the glass ribbon 124 For this purpose, the orientation of the roller 201 in contact with the front and back surfaces of the glass sheet can be variously adjusted.

圖2是應用了根據示例性具體實施例的輥設備的熔融拉伸機120的透視圖。FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the melt drawing machine 120 to which the roller apparatus according to the exemplary embodiment is applied.

參考圖2,由從成形容器122的槽123溢出的熔融玻璃形成的玻璃帶124被向下拉,並且可以在玻璃帶124的拉出路徑附近設置複數個輥設備125和200,複數個輥設備125和200具有與玻璃帶124的第一表面Sf 和第二表面Sb 的邊緣接觸的輥。圖2示出了在兩個位置(例如上部位置和下部位置)處包括輥設備125和200的熔融拉伸機,並且本揭示內容的範圍不受限於輥設備的數量和佈置結構。Referring to FIG. 2, a glass ribbon 124 formed of molten glass overflowing from the groove 123 of the forming container 122 is pulled down, and a plurality of roller devices 125 and 200 may be provided near the drawing path of the glass ribbon 124, the plurality of roller devices 125 And 200 has a roller that contacts the edges of the first surface S f and the second surface S b of the glass ribbon 124. FIG. 2 shows the melt drawing machine including the roller devices 125 and 200 at two positions (for example, the upper position and the lower position), and the scope of the present disclosure is not limited to the number and arrangement structure of the roller devices.

根據示例性具體實施例的輥設備200,可藉由控制輥201的取向和位置,來控制和調節在垂直於拉伸方向200D的方向上的橫向拉伸張力,和平行於拉伸方向200D的向下拉伸張力。另外,可以在垂直於玻璃帶拉伸方向200D的水平方向上調節輥201的旋轉軸202的角度,因此,可以提供加強所謂的「弓形輪廓」的功能。According to the roller apparatus 200 of the exemplary embodiment, by controlling the orientation and position of the roller 201, the transverse tensile tension in the direction perpendicular to the stretching direction 200D and the parallel to the stretching direction 200D can be controlled and adjusted Pull the tension downward. In addition, the angle of the rotation axis 202 of the roller 201 can be adjusted in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the glass ribbon stretching direction 200D, and therefore, a function of enhancing the so-called "bow-shaped profile" can be provided.

圖3是用於描述根據示例性具體實施例的輥設備200的輥201的取向或位置在X-Y-Z平面上的變化的圖。FIG. 3 is a diagram for describing changes in the orientation or position of the roller 201 of the roller device 200 according to an exemplary embodiment on the X-Y-Z plane.

在下文的描述中,根據連接到輥201的軸202的運動來決定輥201的位置或取向的變化。In the following description, the change in the position or orientation of the roller 201 is determined according to the movement of the shaft 202 connected to the roller 201.

參考圖3所示,相對的輥設備200的輥201彼此相對地佈置,而具有第一表面Sf和第二表面Sb的玻璃帶124介於它們之間。兩個相對的輥201的軸202在與玻璃帶124的拉伸方向交叉的X-X方向上大致對準。在圖3中,X-Y平面表示與玻璃帶124的平面平行的垂直表面,並且X-Z平面和Y-Z平面分別表示與玻璃帶124的平面垂直的水平表面和垂直表面。Referring to FIG. 3, the rollers 201 of the opposing roller device 200 are arranged to face each other, and the glass ribbon 124 having the first surface Sf and the second surface Sb is interposed therebetween. The axes 202 of the two opposing rollers 201 are substantially aligned in the X-X direction crossing the stretching direction of the glass ribbon 124. In FIG. 3, the X-Y plane represents a vertical surface parallel to the plane of the glass ribbon 124, and the X-Z plane and Y-Z plane represent the horizontal surface and the vertical surface perpendicular to the plane of the glass ribbon 124, respectively.

根據每個軸202的運動來決定相對輥201的取向和位置的變化。每個軸202可以在其軸向方向上往復運動預定距離,並且可以藉由提供旋轉中心的附加樞軸結構,以在垂直和/或水平方向上在預定角度範圍內樞轉。The change of the orientation and position of the relative roller 201 is determined according to the movement of each shaft 202. Each shaft 202 can reciprocate a predetermined distance in its axial direction, and can be pivoted within a predetermined angular range in the vertical and/or horizontal direction by providing an additional pivot structure for the center of rotation.

圖4示出了軸202在垂直於玻璃板124平面的X-Z平面上旋轉的示例。藉由X-Z平面上的附加樞軸結構,軸202可以在預定角度(θ1)範圍內旋轉。在一些具體實施例中,軸202可以被配置為同時旋轉相同的角度。在一些具體實施例中,軸202可被構造成在預定角度範圍內獨立旋轉。軸在X-Z平面上的旋轉是實現所謂的弓形輪廓所必需的運動,因此可以加強弓形輪廓。FIG. 4 shows an example in which the shaft 202 rotates on the X-Z plane perpendicular to the plane of the glass plate 124. With the additional pivot structure on the X-Z plane, the shaft 202 can be rotated within a predetermined angle (θ1). In some embodiments, the shaft 202 may be configured to rotate the same angle at the same time. In some specific embodiments, the shaft 202 may be configured to rotate independently within a predetermined angular range. The rotation of the axis in the X-Z plane is the movement necessary to achieve the so-called arcuate profile, so the arcuate profile can be strengthened.

圖5示出了在與玻璃板124平面平行的X-Y平面上,軸在垂直向下方向上旋轉或傾斜的示例。藉由在X-Y平面上的附加的傾斜度調節結構或樞軸結構來允許傾斜,並且在預定角度(θ2)範圍內調整傾斜度。軸202的這種向下傾斜可用於向玻璃帶124提供橫向拉伸張力。FIG. 5 shows an example in which the axis rotates or tilts in the vertical downward direction on the X-Y plane parallel to the plane of the glass plate 124. The tilt is allowed by an additional tilt adjustment structure or pivot structure on the X-Y plane, and the tilt is adjusted within a predetermined angle (θ2). This downward tilt of the shaft 202 can be used to provide the glass ribbon 124 with lateral tensile tension.

圖6示出如上所述的可在X-Z平面和X-Y平面上旋轉的軸202的另一位置變化,並且此位置變化與接觸玻璃板124邊緣的輥201沿X-X軸的位移(ΔX)有關。FIG. 6 shows another position change of the shaft 202 that can be rotated in the X-Z plane and the X-Y plane as described above, and this position change is related to the displacement (ΔX) of the roller 201 contacting the edge of the glass plate 124 along the X-X axis.

另外,圖7示出了輥201之間的間距的變化。即,輥201接觸玻璃帶124的相對表面Sf和Sb。在此,可以藉由在Z-Z方向上施加的力來調節輥201之間的間隔ΔZ,以強制將輥201與玻璃片124隔離,使得輥201不再與玻璃帶接觸,或者用於緩衝(諸如減少衝擊)。根據示例性具體實施例,可以從包括重物的外力源向輥201施加外力,使得玻璃帶124的相對表面可以由適當調節的壓力接觸。In addition, FIG. 7 shows changes in the pitch between the rollers 201. That is, the roller 201 contacts the opposing surfaces Sf and Sb of the glass ribbon 124. Here, the interval ΔZ between the rollers 201 can be adjusted by the force applied in the ZZ direction to force the rollers 201 to be separated from the glass sheet 124 so that the rollers 201 are no longer in contact with the glass ribbon or used for buffering (such as Reduce shock). According to an exemplary embodiment, an external force may be applied to the roller 201 from an external force source including a heavy object, so that the opposite surfaces of the glass ribbon 124 may be contacted by an appropriately adjusted pressure.

在下文中,將在下面描述根據示例性具體實施例的輥設備的詳細結構。Hereinafter, the detailed structure of the roller apparatus according to the exemplary embodiment will be described below.

圖11示出了作為一個組件組裝的第一滑動器205和第二滑動器204。如上所述,第一滑動器205被安裝為在偏轉台207上沿一個方向(即Z-Z方向)往復運動,並且第二滑動器204耦接至第一滑動器205並被構造為沿垂直於上述方向(即Z-Z方向)的另一方向(即X-X方向)往復運動。經由第二往復運動結構211在第二滑動器204和第一滑動器205之間進行可滑動式耦接。在一些具體實施例中,第二往復運動結構211可包括設置在第二滑動器204上的燕尾槽移動器211a,以及耦接到第一滑動器205的燕尾槽211b。儘管在圖11中將第二往復運動結構211描述為燕尾槽移動器211a和燕尾槽211b,但是本發明不限於此。第二往復運動結構211可以是本領域中已知的任何兩個元件,它們可以彼此接合並可以相對於彼此線性地滑動。FIG. 11 shows the first slider 205 and the second slider 204 assembled as one component. As described above, the first slider 205 is installed to reciprocate in one direction (ie, the ZZ direction) on the deflection table 207, and the second slider 204 is coupled to the first slider 205 and is configured to be perpendicular to the above The direction (that is, ZZ direction) and the other direction (that is, XX direction) reciprocate. The second reciprocating structure 211 is slidably coupled between the second slider 204 and the first slider 205.
