Embodiment Construction

[0018] see figure 1 , shows a perspective view of an example separating device 100 that may be used to separate a fixed glass sheet 102 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The example separation apparatus 100 includes an arbor press 104 engaged with a die set 106 for supporting and shearing the glass sheet 102 . Die set 106 includes a bottom support platform 108 on top of which is disposed a plurality of support bars 110a, 110b, and 110c (three shown). Additionally, the mold set 106 includes a glass support 112 disposed on top of the support rods 110a, 110b, and 110c. The glass support 112 has a stabilizing surface 114 and an anvil surface 116 extending upwardly from the glass support, while the stabilizing surface 114 does not extend as far upwardly as the anvil surface 116 (see enlarged view). Alternatively, stabilizing surface 114 and anvil surface 116 may be attached to support rod 110b and then extend upwardly through glass support 112 . By using one ...

Abstract

A scoreless separation device and method are described herein for separating a glass sheet without needing to score the glass sheet. In one embodiment, the device shears a stationary glass sheet without needing to score the glass sheet. In another embodiment, the device shears a moving glass sheet to remove outer edges from the moving glass sheet without needing to score the moving glass sheet.

Description

[0001] priority statement [0002] This application claims priority to US Patent Application Serial No. 12 / 262,800, filed October 31, 2008, entitled "Glass Sheet Separating Device and Method For Using Same." technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a separating device and method for separating glass sheets without scoring the glass sheets. In one embodiment, the separating device separates the fixed glass sheet without scoring the glass sheet. In another embodiment, the separating device separates the moving glass sheet to remove the outer edge from the glass sheet without scoring the moving glass sheet. Background technique [0004] Today, scribing devices such as diamond scribers, carbide scribing wheels, and laser scribing devices are commonly used in the glass industry to score glass sheets so that the glass sheets can be broken into desired shapes. In the glass industry, diamond scribes have been used for over 100 years. In the glass industry, carbi...
