  • APPARATUS AND METHOD OF MANAGING MECHANICALLY INDUCED STRESS ON A CRACK TIP WHEN SEPARATING A FLEXIBLE GLASS RIBBON
    Publication number: 20190185363
    Abstract: A method of managing mechanical stress on a crack tip when separating a flexible glass ribbon includes directing the flexible glass ribbon to an edge trimming apparatus including a cutting device. The flexible glass ribbon includes a first broad surface and a second broad surface that extend laterally between a first edge and a second edge. The first edge of the flexible glass ribbon is separated as the flexible glass ribbon moves by the cutting device forming a continuous strip of edge trim connected to a central portion of the flexible glass ribbon at a crack tip. A width of a gap between the first edge and the central portion is detected using a gap measurement device. A signal is supplied to a controller indicative of the width of the gap. The width of the gap between the first edge and the central portion is adjusted based on the signal using a gap adjustment device.

  • Sewing machine for continuous strength members
    Patent number: 10316446
    Abstract: A strength member sewing machine is provided which comprises upper and lower feeder spools, a collection spool and idlers positioned on a support structure. A cord supply, a fabric shaper, a speed control and a pressure foot lift are positioned on the structure. Fabric from the spools is kept in tension with the idlers while moving toward the fabric shaper. The fabric from the upper spool is crimped while the fabric from the lower spool remains flat underneath the shaper. Between the fabric layers, pull cords are pulled through from the cord supply thru the fabric shaper. The fabric with crimps and with the pull cords inside the crimps is sewn to the fabric from the lower spool to create casings with a pull cord in the internal space of each casing. The joined fabrics with the pull cords are collected by the collection spool as a finished product.
