Glass Sheet Bending Station and Method for Glass Sheet Bending

摘要

A glass sheet bending method for glass sheet bending utilizes a primary actuating mechanism ( 154 ) for moving mold support linkages to provide glass sheet bending with a constant radius and utilize control link detachable connections ( 39 ) that allow a secondary actuating mechanism ( 155 ) to provide bending of a glass sheet independently of linkage movement on the other side of the detached connections. The resultant bent glass sheet has two portions of different constant radii of curvature and also has a junction between the two portions.
