CA 2688364

The invention relates to a method and apparatus for bending a glass panel. A heated flat glass panel (G) is fed from a furnace (1) onto a bending conveyor (4) while the bending conveyor (4) is in a straight configuration. The bending conveyor (4) and the glass panel are arched to a desired curvature while the glass panel travels along the bending conveyor (4). The bent glass panel is passed from the bending conveyor (4) onto a tempering conveyor (5) present as its extension, which has been previously arched to a desired curve as early as or even prior to having the flat glass panel received by the straight bending conveyor (4).

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant d'incurver un panneau de verre. Un panneau de verre plat chauffé (G) est alimenté à partir d'un four (1) sur un transporteur d'incurvation (4) alors que ce transporteur d'incurvation (4) est en configuration droite. Le transporteur d'incurvation (4) et le panneau de verre sont arqués selon une incurvation souhaitée alors que le panneau de verre circule le long du transporteur d'incurvation (4). Le panneau de verre incurvé est passé du transporteur d'incurvation (4) sur un transporteur de trempe (5) présent sous forme d'extension de celui-ci, ce transporteur ayant été aussitôt, voire préalablement, arqué selon une incurvation souhaitée lorsque le panneau de verre est reçu par le transporteur d'incurvation (4) droit.
