The present invention concerns a bushing assembly comprising:
(a) a liquid glass feeding unit arranged upstream of, and in fluid communication with,
(b) a first and second tip plate assemblies (1A, 1 B) extending along a longitudinal direction, arranged side by side, and each surrounded by side walls and end walls and, the first and second tip plate assemblies being separated from one another by a stiffening rib structure (21) extending along said longitudinal direction, characterized in that, the feeding unit comprises a glass distribution manifold (2), which defines two separate fluid communication paths to the first and second tip plate assemblies (1A, 1 B), and in that, the stiffening rib structure (21) forms an integral part of the floor of the manifold (2). |
