DEVICE FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF GLASS PRODUCTS Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC C03B17/04 C03B37/02 

FIELD: glass industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to devices for the continuous manufacture of tubes, rods, rigid light guides, various parts for radio and television equipment, electronic equipment and instrumentation from an unprocessed raw billet of a block of glass. A device is proposed for the continuous manufacture of products from an unprocessed blank part made of amorphous material: glass, quartz, sitall. The device includes a heating chamber housing with thermal insulation and a lid with a cooling system on which a compensation load dispenser is located, a correction device located inside the heating chamber, and a heating system. In the lower part of the heating chamber there is a die feeder with a die and electric heating elements. In this case, the correction device consists of a container for a compensation load connected to a counterweight by a cable passing through a hole in the lid and rotating blocks installed outside the lid and the heating chamber housing. Moreover, the container is made with the possibility of installation on the unprocessed blank by means of six ceramic rods with clamps and adjustment of the spatial position of the unprocessed blank inside the chamber to maintain a given pressure on the softened mass at the entrance to the die during the manufacture of products. The heating system consists of a switching device connected to the heating elements, a temperature sensor located in the heating chamber housing above the heating elements, a compensation load dispenser and a weighing device located under the die. Moreover, the added load is equal to the weight of the products manufactured in the corresponding time interval.

EFFECT: increase in the quality of the geometric parameters of the product due to the use of a pressure stabilization system of the softened mass of glass at the entrance to the die, as well as an expansion of the product range and a reduction in manufacturing defects while reducing the consumption of raw materials and electricity.
