DEVICE FOR PRODUCING GLASS SHEET

摘要

An apparatus for manufacturing a glass sheet has a pair of cooling rollers sandwich, from both front and back sides of a glass ribbon, each end portion of the glass ribbon in a width direction of the glass ribbon. The glass ribbon is produced by causing molten glass to flow down from a forming trough. A roller shaft of each of the pair of cooling rollers is arrayed so as to extend from a center side to each end side in the width direction of the glass ribbon. Each of the pair of cooling rollers catches the glass ribbon on an outer peripheral surface thereof, to thereby inhibit contraction in the width direction of the glass ribbon.
