The present invention relates to a guiding device for large-format manual cutters, said device consisting of a guide (1) that comprises: on its top surface (11) an intermediate recessed portion (111) delimited by a base (112) and by longitudinal rails (113a, 113b) for movement of a manual cutter (3); and, on opposite sides of its bottom surface, first support means (121, 122) for supporting the guide (1) on the part (P) to be cut and a longitudinal recess (123) for receiving lever suction cups (2) which form second means for supporting and securing the guide (1) on the part (P) to be cut. The longitudinal rails (113a, 113b) are arranged between the first and the second support means; and the first support means (121, 122) are arranged between the cutting tool (31) and the suction cups (2) which form the second support means.

A manual cutting machine includes a base plate. A front support and a rear support are fixedly arranged at two ends of the base plate. Sliding rods are mounted between the front support and the rear support. A slider is disposed around the sliding rods. A connecting block is hinged to the slider. A blade and a presser foot are connected to the bottom of the connecting rod. A push rod is connected to the top of the connecting block. The tail of the push rod is angled relative to the push rod. When the manual cutting machine is used for cutting and fracturing a board, motions of arms are reduced, and the motion range of an operator is narrowed, so that the operator can use the machine more easily and effortlessly. Meanwhile, oil can be added into an oil can to lubricate the slider in the using process.

Portable linear transformer for laminated gypsum boards, that comprises a central module (2) in a structure having a converting bridge (4) where different converting tools (5) are located, preferably incorporated on a runner (19) that allows to fasten them in different positions by means of screws with knob (20). The central module (2) preferably shows the precision calibration rollers, one of input (6) and the other of output (7), on which the board (P) to be converted slides and the lateral modules (3) with a series of easels (8), with carriage rollers (9) on which the said board (P) is supported and also slides, coplanar to the said input (6) and output (7) rollers. Preferably, the linear and hand-held converting machine also comprises two lateral modules (3) that are fastened on both sides of the central module (2).

A manufacturing method for a band-shaped glass film (GF) includes use of: a plurality of rollers (10) configured to change a direction of the falling band-shaped glass film (GF) to a horizontal direction; and a first horizontal-conveyance unit (4) configured to convey the band-shaped glass film (GF) in the horizontal direction after the changing of the direction of the band-shaped glass film (GF). After a lower end of the band-shaped glass film (GF) passes through a position between the plurality of rollers (10) being at a retreated position (P2) and the first horizontal-conveyance unit (4), the plurality of rollers (10) are moved from the retreated position (P2) to a regular position (P1) to apply a pressing force to the band-shaped glass film (GF), to thereby cut the band-shaped glass film (GF) along a width direction by bend-breaking.

A method for separating a solid-body layer from a donor substrate includes: providing a donor substrate having a planar surface, a longitudinal axis orthogonal to the planar surface, and a peripheral surface; producing a plurality of modifications within the donor substrate using at least one LASER beam, wherein the at least one LASER beam penetrates the donor substrate via the peripheral surface at an angle not equal to 90° relative to the longitudinal axis of the donor substrate; producing a stress-inducing polymer layer on the planar surface of the donor substrate; and producing mechanical stresses in the donor substrate by a thermal treatment of the stress-inducing polymer layer, wherein the mechanical stresses produce a crack for separating the solid-body layer, and wherein the crack propagates along the modifications.

Methods of separating a glass web that is moving at a glass web velocity. The method includes exposing a separation path on the glass web to at least one laser beam spot that moves with a laser beam spot velocity vector that is equal to a glass web velocity vector in a conveyance direction. The method also includes creating a defect on the separation path while the separation path is under thermal stress from the laser beam spot, whereupon the glass web spontaneously separates along the separation path in response to the defect. In further examples, a glass web separation apparatus includes a first reflector that rotates such that a laser beam spot repeatedly passes along a separation path and a second reflector that rotates such that the laser beam spot moves in a conveyance direction of the glass web.
