专利摘要:
Molten glass is poured on to a bath of molten metal to form a pool of molten glass on the bath, which pool is held back on the bath surface by an elongate member which can be solid, wetted by the glass, extending across the downstream end of the pool. A ribbon of glass is drawn from a forward flow of molten glass beneath the member and the ribbon is rapidly cooled to stabilize its dimensions as it is drawn away from the member. The glass is heated in the region of the member to maintain forwardly flowing glass in that region at a viscosity which is lower than the viscosity of molten glass of the pool upstream of the member but at viscosity at which the glass also wets on to the member. The ribbon is drawn from the lower viscosity, forwardly flowing glass.

The bath 1 of liquid metal has an elongated shape and consists of the bottom 2, side walls 3, walls 4 at the entrance to the bath and walls 5 at the exit of the bath 1. Outside the wall 5 with the outlet, traction rollers b are installed that move the glass ribbon 7 through the outlet 8. The outlet 8 is located between the wall 5 and the end of the wall 9 of the cover 10, located above the tank and forming a volume 11 above the bath 1 with the liquid metal. A chute 12 is installed above the wall 4 for pouring liquid glass onto the surface of the liquid metal in the bath 1. The chute 12 is the end of a channel connecting the bath to the front of the furnace for melting glass. The chute has an inclined end 13, the edge 14 of which is located near the surface 15 of the liquid metal. The chute with an inclined end have side stops 16. The lid 10 at the entrance to the bath 1 is closed with a shut-off wall 17.
The continuation of the wall 18 with the side walls 3 form a chamber 19, in which the chute 12. is enclosed. The device 20, which serves to close
chambers 19, connected to a heat source 12, which controls the flow of liquid glass 21 flowing down to the surface of the bath of liquid metal. The temperature regulators 22 are immersed in the liquid metal, and the temperature regulators 23 are located in the bath above the metal surface, which makes it possible to regulate the temperature of the bath and the water glass moving along the bath.
The volume 11 above the bath is filled with protective gas (for example, a mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen entering the bath through pipes 24 which are connected to a manifold 25 connected to a source of non-oxidizing protective gas. The gas in this volume under increased pressure is released outside through the outlet of the bath, which prevents outside air from entering the bath. Liquid glass, for example, from a mixture of sodium carbon, limestone and silicon dioxide, flows along the chute 12 onto the surface of the liquid metal to form a rather deep pool of liquid glass 26 on the surface of the bath. This pool is formed both by glass flowing forward along the bath and liquid glass located under the chute at wall 4 at the entrance of the bath.
The solid body 27 of heat-resistant material is arranged parallel to the edge 14 of the gutter and forms an opening 28 with a variable cross section through which the liquid glass flows from the pool 26. The liquid glass from this pool is kept from moving forward along the surface of the liquid metal with solid 27.
The latter is a rectilinear beam of heat-resistant metal, preferably heat-resistant stainless steel. Vapka 27 can be made of carbon, molybdenum, tungsten, tantalum, niobium, iridium, ruthenium or palladium or oxide of platinum or tin, if there is no hydrogen in the protective atmosphere. The beam is installed above the surface of the bath with the help of racks 29 connected to the transverse beam 30 fixed in the side walls of the lid. The bottom surface of the beam 30 is located above the surface of the liquid metal at such a height that a variable cross section opening between the solid body and the metal is from 18 to 7 mm high, which is caused by the change in the level of the surface of the liquid metal from the lower level under the chute to the upper level below a solid body 27 along which the glass ribbon is stretched. The change in level in the opening 28, which acts on the hot water glass, as well as the wetting of the solid by the liquid glass are factors that increase the viscous braking imparted to the liquid glass when it passes as a ribbon through the hole, and the tape 7 is continuously formed behind hole 28, somewhat below it. Below solid 27 there is a return electrode 31, made for example of heat-resistant steel, which passes over one of the side walls 3, the electrode being immersed in the molten metal of the bath at a distance from the axis of the wall. The transverse beam 30 and the post 29 are made of an electrically conductive material, such as steel. When this is one end of the beam is connected by wire 32 to the от-tap 33 of the winding 34 of the auto transformer connected in parallel to the main source of electricity. The neutral lead of the winding 34 is connected by a wire 35 to a return electrode 31 immersed in a bath. The wetted back electrode 36 of a refractory metal, such as molybdenum, is mounted on the wall 4 under the groove. The electrode 36 is made in the form of a crossbar of L-shaped cross-section, which is immersed in a pool with liquid glass 26 near the wall 4. On the outer side under the forehead is an electrical connector 37 connected by a wire 38. with a mobile tap 39 of the winding 40 of the autotransformer connected in parallel with the main source of electricity. The neutral lead of this autotransformer is connected by wire 41 to the return electrode 31. Electrode 36 is sealed between the wall 4 of the tank and the bottom surface of the groove 12. Restrictive tiles 42 are permanently installed on each side of the groove 12 along the edges of the pool 26 moistened with liquid glass. On each of these tiles, an M-shaped molybdenum electrode 43 is mounted, immersed in liquid glass and located at some distance from the surface 15 of the liquid metal. A steel rod 44 for electrical connection fits into each electrode 43 through a side wall. One rod 44 is connected via a wire 45 to a mobile tap 46 of the winding 47 of an autotransformer connected parallel to the main power source. The neutral end of the winding 47 is connected by means of a wire 48 to a return electrode 31. Another rod 44 is similarly connected by a wire 49 to a mobile tap. 50 windings 51 of the autotransformer ora connected in parallel with the main power source. The neutral end of this winding is connected via a wire 52 to a return electrode 31. A change in the position of the spud 33 rev. The coil of the autotransformer 34 allows independent control of the voltage level on the wire 32 and the solid body 27. This is provided to control the heating current through the water glass coming out of the hole 28, which allows for the regulation of viscosity. At the same time, the required viscosity braking is provided for forward-moving glass. As a result, glass, by maintaining an appropriately low viscosity, easily overcomes body 27. The temperature at the inlet to the bath, as well as the flow of liquid glass 21 poured into the bath, ranges from 1000 to 1050 ° C, and the same temperature is maintained in the basin 26 . By adjusting the winding of the autotransformer 40 to establish the required value of the electric power transmitted through the wire 38 to wet the back electrode, thermal regulation of the pool of liquid glass located under the chute is carried out independently of the temperature of the glass flowing through the opening 28 under the solid 27, thus the glass located under the chute has a viscosity such that it sticks to the electrode 36. The electrode 36 not only controls the temperature of the glass in the pool 26, which is cold e, the glass flowing through the opening 28, but also thanks to it, it maintains the required width of the wetting area of the pool 26 and increases the output flow of liquid glass from this area along the edges of the pool, which flows towards the restrictive tiles 42. The unrelated connection of the windings of the autotransformers 47 and 51 allows There is no independent control of the power dissipated in the liquid glass — along the edges of the basin 26 in the region of the electrodes 43. This contributes to the direction of the edge flows 53 of the liquid glass a, flowing out of the basin 26, around the ends of the solid body 27 to move along the edges of the tape, which leads to a thickening of the edges 54 and the formation of a cross-linking reaction preventing the narrowing of the stretchable tape. The traction force is communicated by means of the traction rollers 6, which pull the glass tape 7 along the surface of the liquid metal 15 from the glass, which then flows through the opening 28, for example, for the production of glass e, 5 mm thick at a speed of 110 m / h load with a load of 70 tons per week. A solid body 27, 350 mm wide and 25 mm thick, is located across the bath in the direction of flow; la. Moreover, it is located on the 9 mm voyoe lower
The level of the surface of the liquid metal 15 that serves as the I-gun. Thickness
used central part of the tape 5 mm and a width of 300 mm. In order to obtain such indicators, the power supply via wire 32 to solid 27 is supplied from a source providing a voltage of 22 V, current 450 A, power 10 kV, and through wire 38 to a wetted back electrode
respectively - 30 V, 200 A, 6 kV,
The power supply of the electrodes 43 is carried out from a source providing a voltage of about 27 V, a current of 48 A, and a power of 1.5 kV. The current flowing through the opening 28 through the molten glass under the solid body 27 increases the temperature of the glass as it moves through the opening to approximately 1250 ° C, resulting in a glass viscosity in this area of approximately 10 g / cm-2.
The thrust force transmitted to the upper glass flow is generated
The envelope of glass 7, which cools as it moves along the bath, causes the belt 7 to be pulled out of the glass flow with a very low viscosity value flowing out of the opening 28. The required ice fibers 53 of the cooler liquid glass contribute to the required irins of the ribbon being made. which form the thickened edges 54 of the resulting tape, due to the transverse reaction of the bond that prevents the tape from narrowing. The bottom surface of the bag is formed as a result of contact with the surface of the molten metal, which occurs when liquid glass is pulled out of the orifice and overcomes the viscous braking used as reaction forces when subjected to heavy forces together with efforts to keep the flow straight. . In particular, we mean a sharp rise in the level of a metal that acts on the glass in the place where the level of the bath changes, as well as the surface tension forces that are due to the wetting of the upper surface of the liquid glass of a solid body 27. The surface tension forces play determining role in the formation of the upper surface of the tape at the location of the meniscus 55, where liquid glass wets the lower surface of the solid body 27.
The viscosity of the cooled glass in the places of the edge flows 53 is approximately equal to g / cm-sec, as a result of which thicker edges 54 are formed, the viscosity of which is viscous (the viscosity of the central part 56 of the tape is 5 mm thick.
The main approaches to determining the thickness of the central section of the belt 56 are the speed at which the belt 7 is drawn out of the bath and the maintenance of the required width of the belt; the height of the solid 27 above the surface of the molten metal, and therefore the height and configuration of the hole 28; electrical power dissipated by heating the glass; the height of the front of the waterglass stream, which is kept from moving by the solid 27; thickness of solid 27 in the direction of flow of glass
The resulting glass tape is cooled relatively quickly, for example in a cooling chamber-cooler 57, to solidify and fix the tape — the thickness required. A change in the speed of rotation of the tow rollers 6 causes a change in the thickness of the central portion 56 of the belt.
According to this method, glass is made from 3 to 10 mm thick.
Due to the fact that the tape is formed from glass, which is at a high temperature on the surface of the bath of liquid metal, the processed glass has a flame-treated surface without damage. The thickened edges of the tape are removed when the glass is baked.
The device shown in FIG. 5-7, intended to produce thinner flat glass, for example 1 or 2 mm thick, as well as glass foil up to 0.05 mm thick. The restriction tiles 42 in this device do not directly reach the side walls 3 of the bath, and the thickened edges 54 of the glass ribbon are connected by edge rollers 58 mounted on shafts 59 passing through the side walls of the bath. Edge rollers 58 are made of graphite or heat-resistant stainless steel in the form of discs with serrated edges that cut into the thickened edges 54 of the glass. The rollers 59 are positioned at an angle of 80 ° to the direction of movement of the belt, and the edge rollers 58 are arranged in several steps relative to the side walls, if viewed in the direction of the movement of the walls. As a result, the width adjusting forces acting on the thickened edges 54 of the glass impart small transverse tensile forces of the central part 56 of the tape, thus increasing the transverse forces
rollers. In addition, the edge rollers 58 ensure the stability of the edge streams 53 of liquid glass around the ends of the solid body 27 and counteract the decrease in the thickness of the central part 56 of the tape.
Immediately after the edge rollers 58, immerse coolers 60 in a bath of liquid metal. Each cooler is a zigzag steel tube connected to a source of cooling water. These coolers effectively remove heat from the thickened edges 54 of the tape, which helps to maintain the required width of the tape immediately after passing the upper rollers with glass. As the glass passes between the edge rollers 58, the glass is cooled. The purpose of the coolers 57 and 60 is to ensure the formation of the central part 56 of the belt, while a transverse reaction with the edge rollers acts on its edges. The central portion of the belt must be sufficiently hard to prevent the width of the belt from diminishing and to deform already solidified. neck of the central part of the ribbon of thin glass.
The bottom surface 61 of the solid body 27 rises in the direction of the flow of glass, as a result, an opening 28 is formed, which also expands in the direction of the flow of glass.
Hole 28 is gradually shifted in height, and the slope of the bottom surface 61 of the solid body 27 is provided with regard to the slope 62 of the surface of the liquid metal under this body, which takes on a certain shape during steady state operation. The width of the solid is 27-460 mm, and the thickness is 50 mm ,. Edge rollers 58 rotate at a peripheral speed of 820 m / h, glass tape 7 is pulled out of the bath with a capacity of 820 m / h.

Table 2 Solid These figures are for producing 40 tons of flat glass with a width of 500 mm and a thickness of J mm per week. The device depicted in FIGS. 10-12 is intended for the production of glass foil, goal, 1 l 0.1-0.005 mm, (especially foil 0.02 mm or 0.01 mm or iO 005 mm thick). The device uses a curved solid 27, which is as solid as described in the previous example. However, this device does not have edge rollers. For the formation of edge PS: 11 5: 5, a more complicated heating device is provided, due to the effect of which the tape edges 54 create the required cross-sectional response to maintain a given width of the tape, central part 5 (which is a manufactured glass foil. On the right side of the inlet of the bath 1 there are two restrictive tiles 63 and 64. On the tile 63 there is a molybdenum heating elec- 65. Similarly, an electrode 66 is mounted on the tile 64 to carry out the heating.On the left side of the bath there are restrictive tiles 67 and 68 and molybdenum heating electrodes 69 and 70. The edge 71 of the glass flows around the end of the solid 27. An individual power source is provided for each of the electrodes 65,66,69, and 70. Electrode 65 is connected via wire 72 to a tap 73 of an autotransformer winding 74 which is connected parallel to the main power source. The neutral end of the winding 74 is connected via a wire 75 to the return electrode 31. Similarly, the electrode 66 is connected via a wire 76 to a tap 77 of the winding 78 of an autotransformer connected in parallel. main power source. The neutral end of this winding is connected via wire 79 to return electrode 31. In exactly the same way, heating electrode 69 is connected via wire 80 to a mobile tap 81 winding 82 of the autotransformer, which is also connected in parallel to the main power source. The neutral end of this winding is connected via wire 83 to the return electrode 31. Similarly, the heating electrode 70 is connected via wire 84 to a movable tap 85 of winding 86 of an autotransformer, which is connected parallel to the main power source. The neutral end of this winding is connected via wire 87 to return electrode Z. This device allows individual control of the heating of the edge currents flowing from pool 26 around the ends of the solid body 27. As a result, thickened edges 71 are formed, which wet the electrodes 70 and thus way to create a cross-linking reaction, affecting the already obtained glass foil within the bent solid 27 at the time when the foil goes beyond the area bounded by the end E Solid State 27. Coolers 60 are immersed in the liquid metal bath near the ends of the solid body 27 to effect rapid cooling of the thickened edges, which promotes maintenance of a predetermined tape width. In addition, an overhead cooler 57 was used to stabilize the foil sizes. In one example of the operation of this device for producing glass foil with a thickness of 0.1 mm, the solid body 27 has a width of 520 mm and a thickness of 25 mm. Thick glass foil tape

Two pairs of edge rollers 58 are located below the ends of the curved hard®® 27. The shafts 59 are located at right angles to the direction of movement of the ribbon of glass foil. In the device under consideration there are flanking electrodes 88 located between one end of the solid body 27 and the adjacent side wall 3 of the bath. Each electr 88 is isolated from a solid 27 by an insulator, an insulating element 89, for example, sillimanite. Flank electrodes 88 are smaller compared with solid body 27, as a result of which the bottom surfaces of flanking electrodes 88 are located even more over the surface of the liquid metal compared with the bottom surface of the bent solid body 27, which forms a passage 90 for the edge flows 53 A glass flowing out of a pool 26 in the form of a tape with thickened edges 54.

Similarly, the right flank electrode 88 is connected via wire 95 to a movable tap 96 of a winding 97 of an autotransformer that is connected to the main power source. The neutral side of this winding is connected via wire 98 to return electrode 31. Heating of liquid glass streams 53 flowing under flanking electrodes 88 intensifies wetting by 53 streams of flank electrodes with glass streams, which helps to maintain a predetermined width of a strip of glass foil formed within a solid arc. body-27. Edge rollers 58 are located on top to provide a predetermined width. Glass foil is rapidly cooled and stabilized by means of extensive cooling tubes (coolers 99) immersed in a bath and passing under the entire glass surface of the foil between edge rollers 58. These extensive coolers 99 work together with an upper cooling chamber 57, installed immediately after the coolers 99 and designed to rapidly cool the resulting strip of glass foil with thickened edges, the movement of which then continues along the bath.

is a heat-resistant stainless steel rod that has an i-shape with a straight lower part serving as a submerged electrode. The upper curved sections 115 of this solid body rise upward through the side streams of liquid glass, then bend again AND pass through the side walls of the baths. The height, on which the rectilinear portion of this electrode is located above the surface of the liquid metal 15, is adjustable, which allows the thickness of the glass tape to be made to be adjusted. In pool 26, there are separate heaters designed to control the edge flows flowing around the area in 115 of the described solid. Below this solid body, coolers 60 are immersed in the liquid metal, and there is also an upper cooler 57 which is intended to provide stabilization of the glass foil being produced. Flows of water glass flowing from pool 26 extend above and below the rectilinear portion of this solid 114. The bottom surface of the thin glass is formed when it comes into contact with the surface of the liquid metal, and the top surface of the ribbon of thin glass is pulled out of the flame-treated surface of the liquid glass, which acquires a flat shape, free from defects, in the hot pool 26. The heating current flows from the solid body towards the surface of the bath. The heat generated also serves to warm up the stream passing over the electrode. In one example of the operation of such a device for the production of glass with a thickness of 3 mm and a width of 400 mm, the submerged solid body has a width of 480 mm and is made in the form of a rod of stainless steel with a diameter of 12 mm. 7 shows the power supply mode of the installation. Table 7 Solid Body Glass with a thickness of 3 mm and a width of 400 mm was manufactured at a capacity of 25 tons per week and a tape removal rate of 50 m. It is desirable that the bottom surface of the solid, with the exception of the last example, should have an upward slope and the corners of the bottom would be round. The viscosity of the glass flowing under the solid is maintained at a predetermined level by means of a heating current, the value of which ensures the free passage of the glass under the solid. . The exact location of the meniscus glass flowing out from under the electrode beam can be precisely determined by setting a certain shape to the lower edge of the solid in the form of a nose 116, which is wetted by the meniscus of liquid glass. In another embodiment of the solid form shown in FIG. 22 of the present invention, the lower edge of the nose 116 has an upwardly curved lower surface 117. Instead of a structure in which current is passed between the lower surface of a solid and the surface of a liquid metal, a solid can be used, shown in FIG. 23, in which it consists of two parallel beams 118 and 119, usually made of molybdenum, which are separated from each other by a strip separation element 120 of insulating refractory material, such as sillimanite. Separate electrical leads 121 and 122 are provided for these two beams. One of these leads is connected to the mobile tap of the feed autotransformer, and the other end is connected to the neutral side of this transformer. An electric current flows between the lower surfaces of the beams 118 and 119 through the glass flowing through the hole under the given solid, whereby the glass is heated, thus acquiring the desired value of viscosity. In another embodiment of the present invention, the solid that controls the direct flow of liquid glass flowing from basin 26 is made of a material that does not conduct electricity, for example, pure silicon dioxide, a refractory material containing 80% silica or alumino-silicate. refractory material, for example, sillimanite, in which there is a heating wire. A solid body in contact with liquid glass heats the glass flowing under this element until it acquires the desired low viscosity. In addition to sillimanite, other materials can be used as electrical insulators for insulating elements 89 and insulating blocks 103 and 105. As refractory materials, widely known aluminosilicates can be used.
In each of the above: examples, power is supplied by electricity from an industrial network with a frequency of 50 Hz. The frequency of the power source can be changed, for example, to values of 500 Hz or 1000 Hz or even greater.
In each of the devices described above, the thick edges of the tape are immediately burned after removing the tape from the bath, with the result that a continuous ribbon of flat glass or glass foil is suitable for further use. Glass foil, for example, may have the required continuous resin coating, after which the coated foil is turned into flakes suitable for use as a reinforcement material for resins and putties.
Thus, in accordance with the present invention, a method has been developed for producing flat glass with a thickness of, for example, 10 mm to 1 mm, as well as flat glass with a smaller thickness, for example a glass foil with a thickness of 0.005 mm. This method allows {flat glass or glass foil to be produced in the same installations at very low loads, while the thickness of the glass being produced is changed by varying the pulling force as well as the rate at which the glass enters the bath. In addition, the thickness of the glass produced varies depending on the temperature of the glass flowing through the opening 28 and the liquid glass drawn from the basin 26, which is located at the entrance to the bath 1.
The proposed method makes it possible to improve the quality of the glass due to the fact that the upper surface of the glass ribbon is not formed by the contact of the glass with a solid body, as by a known method, but downstream. The upper surface is formed from the glass meniscus, which is pulled from the downstream side of the solid. Moving forward glass strip under the solid element
5 is heated, whereby the wetting with the glass of the solid body is ensured.
