METHOD OF DEFLECTING CONVEYOR ROLLS INTENDED FOR BENDING GLASS PANELS, AND ASSEMBLY APPLYING THE METHOD

摘要

The invention relates to a method of longitudinally deflecting conveyor rolls (4, 5) intended for bending glass panels. The method comprises deflecting the conveyor rolls (4, 5) during a glass-panel bending process by turning link member (6, 7) on which the ends of the conveyor rolls (4, 5) are mounted with bearings. In order to turn the link members (6, 7) of each conveyor roll (4, 5), at least one link member (6) is subjected to a force sufficient for its turning by a position-identifying electric drive (8). At least the other link member (7) is subjected to a force sufficient for its turning by a second electric drive (9), which is controlled on the basis of position data provided by the position-identifying electric drive (8).The present invention relates also to an assembly applying the method for bending glass panels.
