AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the prior art, the annular contact portion of the support roller causes the molten tin to condense and accumulate due to cooling, which affects the yield and manufacturing efficiency of the glass ribbon.

Method used

A support roller is designed with an internal cooling flow path and a recessed structure of an annular abutment portion. By embedding the recess of the mounting member, the cooling of the annular abutment portion is reduced, preventing the accumulation of tin products.

Benefits of technology

It effectively suppressed the cooling of the annular contact section, reduced the accumulation of tin products, and improved the yield and manufacturing efficiency of glass ribbons.
