ROLLER ASSEMBLY FOR CONVEYOR APPARATUS FOR SHEET GLASS AND ROLLER FORM CONVEYOR APPARATUS

摘要

PURPOSE: To simplify an apparatus and facilitate operations by freely rotatably fitting plural ring rollers into a guide shaft of a roller assembly and connecting respective rollers with connecting wires passing through the respective rolling rollers. ;CONSTITUTION: This roller assembly for a conveyor apparatus for sheet glass is constituted by freely rotatably fitting plural ring rollers 20 into a guide shaft 18 formed by bending into an optional curvature ratio, forming a through-hole for fitting the guide shaft 18 in the center of the ring rollers 20, forming plural pinholes on the outer peripheral side of the through-hole, fitting connecting wires 24 into the pinholes so as to be freely movable in the axial line direction and connecting the plural ring rollers 20 with the connecting wires 24 so as to transmit a rotational force to the respective ring rollers 20 with the guide shaft 18 from the end as the center. A piece of sheet glass heated to the softening point is conveyed in a prescribed direction by rotation with the guide shaft 18 of the ring rollers 20 as the center to carry out the bending formation of the sheet glass along the conveying passage by its own weight.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1996,JPO
