    Abstract: An advancing layer or sheet of glass is supported on molten metal and its central portion is selectively cooled by direct conductive and convective heat transfer to and through the supporting molten metal. To accomplish this the depth of molten metal beneath the glass is made to differ across the width of the glass layer transverse to the intended path of glass advance. This controlled heat transfer between the glass and the supporting molten metal is particularly useful in a process wherein the molten glass is delivered onto the molten metal along a substantially horizontal path.

    Abstract: An improvement in the float process for the manufacture of glass ribbon having a thickness different from the equilibrium thickness, said improvement being characterized in that jets of molten metal are impinged against both side edge portions of the glass ribbon from nozzles disposed below the glass ribbon and in the molten metal bath, and a lateral stretching force, in the case of outward impinging, or a lateral contracting force, in the case of inward impinging, is imparted to the glass ribbon by the momentum of the molten metal impinged from the nozzles against the glass ribbon.

    Abstract: Controlling the directional flow of the initial buoyant body of molten glass received on the bath of a float glass apparatus to assist in guiding down the bath. The restrictor tiles are made adjustable both pivotally and laterally. One end of each of two spaced, horizontal rods is pivotally attached to each restrictor tile. Each rod connects through an opening in the tank sidewall to an independent, conventional means capable of advancing and retracting same, thereby allowing independent adjustment thereof.
