- the seal block 440 is fixed to the heat insulating structure 410, and cleans the outer peripheral surface of the lift-out roll 420 by contacting the outer peripheral surface of the rotating lift-out roll 420.
- each lift-out roll 420 is parallel to the width direction of the glass ribbon 14.
- the lift-out roll 420 is rotated by a rotation motor (not shown) to pull up the glass ribbon 14 from the molten metal 310. Thereafter, the glass ribbon 14 is conveyed obliquely upward on the plurality of lift-out rolls 420 and supplied to the slow cooling device 500.
- the slow cooling device 500 gradually cools the glass ribbon 14.
- the slow cooling device 500 includes, for example, a slow cooling furnace (rare) 510 having a heat insulating structure, and a plurality of transport rolls 520 and 530 that are disposed in the slow cooling furnace 510 and transport the glass ribbon 14 in a predetermined direction.
- the atmospheric temperature in the slow cooling furnace 510 becomes lower as it goes from the inlet to the outlet of the slow cooling furnace 510.
- the atmospheric temperature in the slow cooling furnace 510 may be adjusted by a heater 540 provided in the slow cooling furnace 510.
- a cooler may be installed in the slow cooling furnace 510.
- the heater 540 is fixed to the ceiling, hearth, or side wall of the slow cooling furnace 510.
- a plurality of heaters 540 are provided at intervals in the conveyance direction of the glass ribbon 14 and are controlled independently.
- a plurality of heaters 540 are provided at intervals in the width direction of the glass ribbon 14 and may be controlled independently.
- the glass ribbon temperature in the vicinity of the outlet of the slow cooling furnace 510 is a temperature below the strain point of the glass. Since the residual strain hardly occurs due to temperature unevenness at a temperature below the strain point of the glass, the glass ribbon 14 carried out from the outlet of the slow cooling furnace 510 is allowed to cool.
- the plurality of transport rolls 520 and 530 are rotatable around the central axis of each transport roll 520 and 530.
- the central axes of the transport rolls 520 and 530 are parallel to the width direction of the glass ribbon 14.
- the plurality of transport rolls 520 and 530 are rotated by a rotation motor (not shown) to transport the glass ribbon 14 in a predetermined direction.

- the transport roll 520 in the upstream area in the transport direction is easily exposed to the vapor of the molten metal 310, and the liquefied molten metal is likely to adhere to the outer surface of the transport roll 520 in the upstream area. If the adhering matter bites between the rotating transport roll 520 and the glass ribbon 14, the glass ribbon 14 may be damaged. In particular, since the most upstream transport roll 520 has a remarkable adhesion of molten metal, the glass ribbon 14 is easily damaged. The glass ribbon 14 is not completely solidified in the vicinity of the conveyance roll 520 in the upstream area, and is soft.
- a part or all of the upstream-side transport roll 520 is a shaft portion 521 as a non-contact portion that forms a gap with the glass ribbon 14, a contact portion 522 that contacts the widthwise end portion of the glass ribbon 14, and the like. This is a transport roll 520-1.

- the outer diameter of the shaft portion 521 is smaller than the outer diameter of the contact portion 522.
- the shaft portion 521 is formed coaxially with a rotation shaft 526 extending from both ends of the transport roll 520-1. Rotating shaft 526 is integrally formed with the conveying rolls 520-1.
- Two contact portions 522 are provided at an interval in the width direction of the glass ribbon 14 and support both ends in the width direction of the glass ribbon 14 from below. Since both end portions in the width direction of the glass ribbon 14 tend to become thick due to surface tension during molding, they are removed by cutting after slow cooling. Even if both ends in the width direction of the glass ribbon 14 are damaged, they do not become part of the plate glass, so the quality of the plate glass is not impaired.
- the corners of the surfaces 522a and 522b facing each other of the two contact portions 522 and the outer peripheral surface 522c of each contact portion 522 are chamfered.
- the chamfering may be R chamfering or C chamfering as shown in FIG.

- angular part of the surface on the opposite side to the opposing surfaces 522a and 522b of each contact part 522, and the outer peripheral surface 522c of each contact part 522 may be chamfered as shown in FIG. It does not have to be.
- the conveyance roll 520-1 having the non-contact part 521 and the contact part 522 can support the glass ribbon 14 at the time of producing the plate glass without impairing the quality of the plate glass.
- the contact between the upstream transport roll 520 and the glass ribbon 14 is suppressed, so that the glass ribbon 14 is prevented from being damaged, and the replacement frequency of the upstream transport roll 520 can be reduced.
- the transport roll 520-1 having the non-contact part 521 and the contact part 522 is used as the most upstream transport roll 520, damage to the glass ribbon 14 is remarkably suppressed.
- positioned in the upstream area of the slow cooling furnace 510 may be the conveyance roll 520-1 which has a contact part and a non-contact part (FIG. 5 (a)).
