Method of and apparatus for molding glazing gasket onto multilayer glass panel

摘要

While a first coating gun 405 is being moved along a peripheral edge portion 100a of one surface of a multilayer glass panel 100 horizontally placed on a first worktable 20, the first coating gun 405 discharges a molding material to coat the peripheral edge portion 100a with the molding material over its entire length, molding a glazing gasket 110 thereon. An inverting mechanism 60 inverts the multilayer glass panel 100 with the molded glazing gasket 110 such that the other surface of the multilayer glass panel 100 faces upwardly. Then, a second coating gun 505 is moved along a peripheral edge portion 100b of the other surface of the multilayer glass panel 100, which is horizontally placed on a second worktable 30, and simultaneously discharges a molding material to coat the peripheral edge portion 100b with the molding material over its entire length, molding a glazing gasket 110 thereon.

主权项

1. A method of molding a glazing gasket onto a multilayer glass panel by applying a molding material to a peripheral edge portion of the multilayer glass panel, comprising the steps of:
placing said multilayer glass panel on a first worktable with one surface of said multilayer glass panel facing upwardly; moving a first coating gun along the peripheral edge portion of said one surface of said multilayer glass panel on said first worktable and discharging the molding material from said first coating gun to coat said peripheral edge portion over an entire length thereof with the molding material for thereby molding the glazing gasket on said peripheral edge portion of said one surface of said multilayer glass panel; inverting said multilayer glass panel with said glazing gasket molded thereon by said first coating gun such that another surface of said multilayer glass panel which is free of said glazing gasket faces upwardly; placing the inverted multilayer glass panel on a second worktable with said other surface of said multilayer glass panel facing upwardly; and moving a second coating gun along the peripheral edge portion of said other surface of said multilayer glass panel on said second worktable and discharging the molding material from said second coating gun to coat said peripheral edge portion over an entire length thereof with the molding material for thereby molding the glazing gasket on said peripheral edge portion of said other surface of said multilayer glass panel.
