  • Method of and furnace for batch charging into a glass melting furnace
    Patent number: 4036625
    Abstract: This invention relates to a furnace for the melting of glass. The furnace comprises means defining an opening through which solid state batch material may be delivered into the furnace chamber and to enable the rate of withdrawal of glass to be varied without substantial alteration in the temperature of the body of molten glass, which is exposed for the reception of batch material. Thus the area of contact between the body of molten glass and the batch may be varied, to vary the rate at which the batch material is melted.
