Abstract: A convection heating furnace for a glass sheet, into which oven glass sheet (3) arrives along a hauling track, as on moving rolls (4), and said furnace further comprises of heating elements (12), in order to heat the air, which is blasted against glass sheet (3), a blaster and blast air channelling in order to blast said air against the glass sheet, and the blast air channelling has, elongated channels (1), into which at least a part of the blast air heating elements 12 are fitted, and each channel comprises air blasting means on its flank directed against the glass sheet (3). As air blast elements there are nozzle groups fixed on the channel (1) flank, where the nozzle group formed of sheet metal, as of two, into shape formed sheets joined together to form a casing, whereby said casing comprises one or several for blast air directed discharge channels (6), and the direction of air flow in said casing (2) is essentially in the same direction as in said discharge channels (6).

Abstract: A method to observe glass (1) and to regulate the heating effect of heating elements (5) in a sheet glass hardening furnace, which furnace comprises a glass heating sector, a transportation rail (3) to transport glass (1) to and from the said heating section and said heating elements (5) to heat the glass by means of radiation and air blast, and a furnace control system to carry out the hardening process of glass (1). The location area in the furnace of one or several glass sheets (1), watched from the glass sheet level, is observed with measuring instruments (6), by means of which air temperatures in the heating section above glass (1) transportation rail (3) is measured and the heating effect of their heating elements (5) raised by regulation, at which the location of glass sheet (1) is observed by means of the method.

Abstract: A nozzle unit for the spreading of foamed glue onto a flat surface in the production of wood-based sheets, wherein the nozzle unit has a feeder canal (1) for directing glue into the nozzle unit, a row of nozzles (5) for directing glue from the nozzle unit onto a flat surface and also a distribution canal network between the feeder canal and the nozzles for distributing glue evenly to the nozzles. According to the invention, the area of the distribution canal network has a compensation canal (9) closed to/from external, that forms a free flow channel between the branches of the distribution canal network leading to the nozzles (5).

Abstract: A method for bending a glass sheet (1) in a glass bending furnace utilizing gravity and a bending mould, whereby the glass sheet is put onto the mould and heated into bending temperature to make the glass bend into a wanted shape by means of the mould. The glass sheet (1) is supported by means of the mould adjustable middle component (6), by means of which bearing impact the glass sheet is supported and its getting down onto mould support (4) regulated and which beating element, when let down, forms a part of the mould.

Abstract: A bending mold for bending glass sheets is provided. The mold comprises a frame having longitudinally parallel side walls and a bottom. Support devices having support surfaces are connected between the side walls. An elongated member is provided on the bottom of the frame and is movable in relation to the frame. Support arms are connected by joints between the support device and the elongated member. Movement of the elongated member twists the support devices about a horizontal twisting center.
