<p>Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for orienting thin glass plates in a contamination-free manner. Said method and apparatus have the following features: a) in order to orient the glass plate, a lifting frame (1) is raised from below through the free space between the rolls along with an orienting frame (2) which rests on the lifting frame (1) and is fitted with struts (7) that are connected in a rotatably hinged fashion to the orienting frame (2) and are provided with supporting elements (8) which penetrate the free space between the rolls, project beyond the supporting level of the rolls, and support the glass plate; b) the glass plate is placed in a shock-free manner by means of sliding elements (3) that are actuated by individually controllable drive units (4), the movement of the sliding elements (3) being transmitted to the two longitudinal cross beams of the orienting frame (2) by means of pivot joints (6) which are fastened to the sliding elements (3).</p> |
