  • Apparatus and method for heat treating a glass substrate
    Patent number: 8826693
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for heat treating a plurality of glass substrates. The glass substrates are supported on support platform and housed in a heat treating furnace. The substrates are supported in a substantially vertical orientation by restraining pins extending through walls of the furnace, and are separated from each other by frame-shaped spacing members. The spacing members reduce convection currents between the substrates and reduce or eliminate the post-heat treating distortion of each glass substrate to less than 100 ?m over the entire surface of the substrate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 30, 2010
    Date of Patent: September 9, 2014
    Assignee: Corning Incorporated
    Inventors: Frank T. Coppola, Monica J. Mashewske
