Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for bending and tempering a glass panel, said method comprising the steps of - heating a glass panel in a heating furnace for bending and tempering
- the invention relates also to an apparatus for bending and tempering a glass panel, said apparatus comprising
- the bending conveyor comprising horizontal conveyor rolls
- the patent publication FI- 101697 discloses a method and apparatus, wherein a bending conveyor and a cooling conveyor are present separately as extensions of each other.
- the bending conveyor is in a condition previously arched to a curve as it receives the glass. This is adverse for the reason that the glass is forced to bend at a single point of bending.
- Figs. 1-3 show schematically an apparatus of the invention in a side view during various working sequences.
- Fig. 4 shows more closely a bending conveyor and a tempering conveyor in a configuration arched to a desired radius of curvature, visualizing the arching of a bending conveyor 4, or at least its upstream end section, beyond a desired final curvature of the glass panel.
- Fig. 5 shows more closely a bending conveyor and a tempering conveyor in such a configuration that a tempering conveyor 5 has been arched to a radius of curvature R3 which is smaller compared to a radius of curvature Rl of the bending conveyor 4.
- Fig. 6 visualizes variations in the traveling speed of a glass panel as it emerges from the furnace onto a bending conveyor and passes from the bending conveyor onto a tempering conveyor, and
- Fig. 7 shows an even closer view of actuators used for arching the tempering conveyor.
- the apparatus according to the invention includes a heating furnace 1 for heating glass panels G therein to a bending temperature. From a furnace conveyor 2 the glass panel is passed by way of an intermediate conveyor 3 onto a bending conveyor 4, including horizontal conveyor rolls with press rolls thereabove. A gap between the conveyor rolls and the press rolls matches substantially the thickness of a glass panel.
- a tempering conveyor 5 which also consists of horizontal conveyor rolls and press rolls spaced from the conveyor rolls by a distance matching the thickness of a glass panel.
- the tempering conveyor 5 is covered over its entire length by upper and lower tempering air enclosures 7 and 8, tracing a curvilinear outline of the conveyor.
- the bending conveyor 4 may also have tempering air enclosures 7 and 8 along its downstream end section.
- Reference numeral 6 represents a vertical line, along which the bending conveyor 4 and the tempering conveyor 5 can be disengaged from each other.
- the tempering conveyor 5 is typically slightly longer than the bending conveyor 4. Both conveyors have their press rolls provided with a drive, i.e. rotated at a peripheral speed equal to that of the conveyor rolls, as a result of which the press rolls function also as conveyor rolls.
- Fig. 4 illustrates a power unit 10 and a lever system 11, by means of which the bending conveyor 4 is adjustable in terms of its radius of curvature.
- the power unit 10 can be a servomotor, which by way of a clutch operates a ball screw 10a, which in turn pushes and/or pivots the lever system 11 upon which rests a bridge established by the link bodies 9.
- a gap present in the link mechanism (not shown) which controls the pivoting action of the link bodies 9, allows for the upstream end section of the conveyor 4 to have a radius of curvature which is slightly smaller than that of the downstream end section.
- the entire bending conveyor 4, or at least its upstream end section be arched to a radius of curvature R2 which is slightly smaller than a radius of curvature Rl desired for the glass. This serves to eliminate end section flatness and the final tempered glass is brought over its entire extent to the desired curvature Rl.
- fig. 5 illustrates how the tempering conveyor 5 is maneuverable in vertical and horizontal directions (h and w) at the same time as the angle of its center axis CL changes.
- the tempering conveyor 5 can have its curvature varied regardless of the bending conveyor 4, with an articulation point 6a between the conveyors 4, 5 remaining nevertheless stationary.
- a curvature adjustment for the tempering conveyor 5 is performed independently of the bending conveyor. During a curvature adjustment for the tempering conveyor 5 performed while the process is ongoing, the end of said conveyor may not become disengaged from the articulation point 6a common to the conveyors 4, 5.
- the articulation point 6a for the conveyor 5 is set in position, e.g. by means of a photocell control.
- a curvature adjustment or immediately after the adjustment, is an interpolating position-setting for the ends of these conveyors.
- the ends of the conveyors 4 and 5 are mechanically separate from each other in order to enable a curvature adjustment of the tempering conveyor 5 and to enable, whenever necessary, a disengagement of the tempering conveyor 5 from the bending conveyor 4.
- the downstream end of the bending conveyor 4 remains stationary at all times.
- Indicated by arrows 15 are power units for bringing rollers 14 up and down (vertical action h).
- rollers 14 are able to travel (while maintaining the relative distance between themselves) in a horizontal direction at the same time as a swing frame 13 supporting the conveyor 5 is pivoted while supported upon the rollers 14.
- the swing frame 13 has its pivoting axis coinciding with the midpoint of an arch which extends through the articulated axles of the conveyor's 5 link bodies 9.
- Fig. 7 illustrates an arching mechanism for the tempering conveyor 5, comprising a ball screw 12a, which is operated by a servomotor SMl and which, through the intermediary of arms 12b, arches a bridge established by the link bodies 9, and at the same time the entire conveyor resting upon the link bodies 9.
- the arms 12b engage the conveyor 5 at a small distance from its ends.
- a second servomotor SM2 operates, by way of a herringbone gear 16, ball screws 17 which engage the conveyor 5 at its opposite outer ends.
- the servomotors SMl and SM2 are matched (position synchronized) with each other, such that various sections of the conveyor 5 become arched to the same extent.
- the servomotors can be provided e.g.
- the arching could be carried out with just one actuator, but the use of two actuators makes it possible to avoid inaccuracies in the curvature of a conveyor caused by gaps resulting from the wearing of links. Specifically, the curvatures along the mid-section and end sections can be retained the same.
- a glass panel G is heated in a furnace 1 to a temperature appropriate for bending and tempering.
- the flat glass panel G is delivered from the furnace 1 onto a bending conveyor 4 while the latter is in a straight configuration (fig. 1).
- a tempering conveyor 5 has been previously arched to a desired curve as early as or even prior to the flat glass panel is received by the straight bending conveyor 4.
- the glass panel's exit speed from the furnace is e.g. 700 mm/s (fig. 6) and the speed is decelerated over the period of e.g. 1 second to a speed of 400 mm/s at the same time as the glass panel passes onto the bending conveyor 4.
- the exit speed from the furnace can also be lower, e.g. 550 mm/s, and the deceleration proceeds to a speed of less than 300 mm/s.
- Arching of the bending conveyor 4 to a desired curve Rl is initiated even before the glass panel's trailing end section has completely reached the bending conveyor 4.
- Arching of the bending conveyor 4 is performed very quickly, typically within 1-2 seconds. That period is enough for the glass panel's leading edge to reach a position in line with tempering air enclosures 7, 8 present at the downstream end of the bending conveyor 4.
- Tempering blast may be continuously ongoing and the speed of a bent glass panel is increased to some degree, as can be seen from fig. 6.
- the increase of speed can be e.g. 10-40%.
- the deceleration of speed in the preceding stage is typically at least 30%, preferably more than 40%.
- the conveyor 4, or at least its upstream end section be arched beyond what is the desired final curvature Rl for a glass panel.
- R2 is several percent, even up to 5-10%, smaller than Rl. If desired, the upstream end section of the conveyor 4 can be adapted to be arched separately.
- the gaps in link mechanisms are generally enough to provide a sufficient over-arching for the conveyor's 4 upstream end section.
- the entire bending conveyor 4 can be arched, proceeding from its stationary downstream end, slightly beyond the desired final curvature of a glass panel.
- Fig. 5 illustrates, in an overstated manner for clearer visualization, the way how the tempering conveyor 5 can also be arched during the process to a radius of curvature R3 slightly smaller or larger than the desired radius of curvature Rl.
- This arching of the tempering conveyor 5 to the smaller or larger radius R3 is first of all enabled by virtue of the previously mentioned freedoms of movement (h, w and an angle ⁇ ), as well as by virtue of the mentioned interpolating position-setting, while the articulation point 6a between the conveyors 4, 5 remains stationary.
- the curvature of the tempering conveyor 5 is retained the same at all times, except for a very slight increase of curvature during the process. Other than that, the only time that the curvature of the tempering conveyor 5 needs changing is when the desired curvature Rl changes.
- the method and apparatus according to the invention are also particularly apt for the production of bidirectionally curved glass panels.
- the rolls are also subjected to deflection, as described e.g. in the Applicant's patent publication EP-1597208 (Bl).
