DEVICE AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A FLAT GLASS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240051863 titled 'DEVICE AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A FLAT GLASS
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure describes a device and method for obtaining flat glasses with uniform thickness. The method involves drawing a glass ribbon, and using an aperture to maintain a small and consistent gap between the glass ribbon and the aperture, even when the position of the glass ribbon changes.
- The device and method aim to produce flat glasses with uniform thickness.
- The method involves drawing a glass ribbon.
- An aperture is used to maintain a small and consistent gap between the glass ribbon and the aperture.
- The method ensures the small gap remains constant even when the position of the glass ribbon changes.
Potential Applications:
- Glass manufacturing industry
- Automotive industry (windshields, windows)
- Electronics industry (display screens)
- Construction industry (windows, glass panels)
Problems Solved:
- Inconsistent thickness in flat glasses
- Difficulty in maintaining a consistent gap between the glass ribbon and the aperture during the drawing process
Benefits:
- Production of flat glasses with uniform thickness
- Improved quality control in glass manufacturing
- Enhanced performance and durability of glass products
- Cost savings in production processes
Original Abstract Submitted
the present disclosure provides a device and a method with which flat glasses with particularly uniform thickness can be obtained. the methods are drawing methods in which a glass ribbon is drawn. in the method an aperture is used which allows a defined very small slit between the glass ribbon and the aperture also in the case of a change of the position of the glass ribbon.
