METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR BENDING A GLASS SHEET

摘要

A method for bending a glass sheet is provided wherein the glass sheet is put on a bending surface of a frame unit to be preliminarily bent by gravity before the glass sheet is pressed by an upper mold and frame unit. The method is utilized for controlling the amount of preliminary bending so as to control deformation of the glass sheet caused by the preliminary bending and pressing occurs on the preliminary bent glass sheet by the upper mold and the frame unit.
