| 20100206010 | APPARATUS FOR MANUFACTURING FLOAT GLASS - An apparatus for manufacturing a float glass, including a float bath for storing a molten metal on which a molten glass flows, wherein the molten metal flows in the float bath, comprises an discharge opening formed through a wall of a downstream end of the float bath at the center of the wall to discharge a molten metal crashing against the wall and dross floating on the molten metal; and a pair of side channels formed inside of the wall and communicated with the discharge opening and both sides of the float bath. | 08-19-2010 |
| 20100251774 | CREEP RESISTANT MULTIPLE LAYER REFRACTORY USED IN A GLASS MANUFACTURING SYSTEM - An isopipe for use in a glass manufacturing system is described herein that has core portion made of a refractory material selected both for its refractory characteristics as well as its ability to withstand creep, and an outermost layer made from a second refractory material selected both for its refractory properties as well as its compatibility with contacting molten glass during a fusion glass forming process (e.g. low solubility in the glass). In addition, a method of making an isopipe have a core made of one refractory material and at least one layer covering the core made from another refractory material is disclosed. | 10-07-2010 |

| 20120234050 | HIGH-STRENGTH LAMINATED SHEET FOR OPTICAL APPLICATIONS - A laminated sheet includes a surface layer having an optical surface that is of fire-polished quality and a core layer having a higher modulus than the surface layer to increase an overall stiffness or fracture toughness of the laminated sheet. | 09-20-2012 |
| 20120272688 | MANUFACTURING APPARATUS FOR A THIN GLASS SHEET - A manufacturing apparatus for a thin glass sheet includes a forming member main body configured to form the thin glass sheet by fusing together, at a lower end portion of the forming member main body, streams of molten glass, which have overflown from an overflow trough to both sides of the forming member main body, under a state in which the streams of the molten glass are caused to flow down along outer surface portions having a substantially wedge shape. The manufacturing apparatus also includes a pair of covering members fitted onto both widthwise end portions of the forming member main body, respectively, the pair of covering members forming restricting wall portions for restricting widthwise spread of the streams of the molten glass flowing down along the outer surface portions of the forming member main body. | 11-01-2012 |
| 20130255321 | APPARATUS FOR THERMAL DECOUPLING OF A FORMING BODY IN A GLASS MAKING PROCESS - An apparatus for forming a glass sheet with reduced thermal coupling between upper and lower regions of the apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus allows for temperature changes near the lower regions of the enclosure without a large temperature impact on the upper regions of the enclosure, thereby providing for greater flexibility in setting a temperature profile for a forming body located within the enclosure. | 10-03-2013 |
| 20150033797 | MUFFLE GAP SEAL FOR GLASS LAMINATE MACHINE - A flexible seal positioned between two muffles of a glass laminate fusion draw machine comprises, in order from the interior to the exterior of the muffles, a radiation shield comprising overlapping rows of refractory material, a thermal seal comprising a blanket of temperature resistance material, and an air seal comprising a sheet of high temperature elastomeric material. The seal may further comprising a secondary radiation shield positioned between the thermal seal and the air seal. | 02-05-2015 |
