摘要

Process for the simultaneous, continuous production of a plurality of threads by mechanical detachment throw of mineral materials, plastic in the heat, especially glass, with supply of rods of continuous consumption and renewal, forming after each wire break automatically a drop, which falls vertically thanks to its gravity and which pulls behind it a new thread, characterized in that the individual rods, driven close above their ends, contribute to a particularly closed heating zone, and in this, in the direction of its advance, melt in a glass well consisting of horizontal layers, passing in transition from one to another with descending viscosity, from whose lower layer axially conducted partial streams are derived, whose ends are brought to a higher degree of viscosity than the lower layer, from which the partial currents are derived.
