Fiber bending mechanisms vary beam characteristics by deflecting or bending one or more fibers, by urging portions of one or more fibers toward a fiber shaping surface having a selectable curvature, or by selecting a fiber length that is to be urged toward the fiber shaping surface. In some examples, a fiber is secured to a flexible plate to conform to a variable curvature of the flexible plate. In other examples, a variable length of a fiber is pulled or pushed toward a fiber shaping surface, and the length of the fiber or a curvature of the flexible plate provide modification of fiber beam characteristics.

METHOD OF BENDING DISSIMILAR GLASS COMPOSITIONS

Автор: CORNEJO Ivan Arturo, LE NY Jean Marie, MANNHEIM ASTETE Mario Arturo
Принадлежит:

Glass laminates, comprising more than one glass composition, are becoming increasingly common as the industry moves towards lighter and stronger glazing. Bending dissimilar glass compositions can present problems. A mismatch in the glass viscosity curves, especially in the viscoelastic region of the compositions can result in one layer becoming softer than one of the other layers during the thermal bending process. As a result, economical processes, such as gravity or press bending in which multiple glass layers are simultaneously bent, may not be practical to use forcing the use of more expensive single glass layer bending processes. By thermal treatment processes the fictive temperature of at least one of the glass compositions prior to bending can be shifted to better match the other compositions allowing the glass layers to be simultaneously bent. 1. A bent laminated glass comprising:{'sub': 1', '2, 'a first glass layer comprised of a first glass composition having a fictive temperature shifted from Ttoward Tby a thermal process; and'}{'sub': '2', 'a second glass layer comprised of a second glass composition having a fictive temperature T.'}2.
