The present disclosure relates to a rotary transition section and a tempering and forming apparatus for forming bent glass. The rotary transition section includes a main rack and an auxiliary rack. A plurality of flexible shaft rollers for forming glass are arranged at intervals on the auxiliary rack along the glass conveying direction. An end of the auxiliary rack that is closer to a heating furnace is rotatably connected to the main rack. An end of the auxiliary rack that is away from the heating furnace is connected to a traction mechanism arranged on the main rack. In the tempering and forming apparatus employing the rotary transition section, a forming and tempering section has a lifting function to achieve abutment against a roller surface after the rotation of the transition section, which in turn solves the technical problem that the edge of the glass is difficult to form.

A method for bending and tempering of curved glass using flexible shafts is provided. During production of curved glass, after discharged from a heating furnace, glass is preformed with the two edge portions of the glass in the transverse direction being kept in the same plane and the middle portion of the glass in the transverse direction gradually sinks along the conveying direction. The glass then enters a forming and tempering section with the two edge portions in the transverse direction being supported and is finally formed and tempered. In this method, when the glass gradually becomes curved and enters the forming and tempering section, the two edge portions of the glass in the transverse direction are always supported by flexible shaft roller beds, thereby preventing the edge portions from being dangled and avoiding the formation of wavy edge portions.

A production device and production method for single curved tempered glass. Glass to be processed is heated in a heating section to a temperature required for a glass bending and tempering process; under the combined transfer of a ceramic roller group of the heating section and a forming roller group of a forming section, the heated glass enters the forming section, each roller of the forming roller group of the forming section being in the respective initial state, and under the action of gravity or other external forces, the glass is closely attached to the forming roller group and is then pre-formed accordingly; each roller of the forming roller group is bent from its initial state to a final state, and the softened glass after heating is, under the action of gravity or other external forces, closely attached to the forming roller group and is then formed accordingly; and air blowing and cold quenching are carried out until the formation and tempering of the glass are finished, thus obtaining a single curved tempered glass product.

Disclosed in the present invention is an apparatus for eliminating stress spots on a surface of glass, comprising a conveying assembly, provided with a conveying surface for reciprocally conveying the glass along a conveying direction; an upper air-blowing assembly, provided above the conveying surface, used for guiding air to reciprocally flow above the conveying surface along a swinging direction extending along a width direction of the glass; and a lower air-blowing assembly, provided under the conveying surface, used for guiding air to reciprocally flow under the conveying surface along the swinging direction. A method for eliminating stress spots on a surface of glass comprises a conveying step, a glass swinging step, and an air-cooling step.

The present invention discloses a method for processing a columnar curved tempered glass. The method specifically comprises the following steps. Bending and tempering of the high temperature flat glass are divided into two stations. Bending is firstly carried out on the high temperature flat glass output by a heating furnace; the columnar extending direction of the curved glass is perpendicular to the direction the glass output from the heating furnace in the bending process, and then the formed curved glass is output to a tempering station in the columnar extending direction thereof to undergo tempering. In the present invention, bending and tempering of the high temperature flat glass are completed by two stations to break the normal procedure that bending and tempering are carried out by a single bending device intensively, thereby providing a novel technological approach for processing the columnar curved tempered glass.

The present invention discloses a device for processing columnar curved tempered glass. The device mainly comprises a glass heating furnace, a glass bending mechanism and a glass tempering mechanism connected sequentially, wherein the arrangement of each supporting roller in the rollers supporting the high temperature flat glass is changed from planar arrangement in space into curved arrangement corresponding to the shape of the glass to be formed, so that the glass bending mechanism enables the glass to suffer bending deformation. Transferring rollers for outputting the formed curved glass in the axial direction of the supporting roller are arranged at the clearance of the rollers of the bending mechanism. In the present invention, bending shaping and tempering of the high temperature flat glass are completed by two stations to break the normal procedure that bending shaping tempering are carried out by one bending appliance intensively, thereby providing a novel technological approach for processing columnar curved tempered glass.
