Abstract
A glass molding apparatus includes at least one molding part including a molding cast configured to mold a glass, a transfer roller part including a plurality of transfer rollers below the molding part, the transfer rollers being arranged along a first direction, being configured to rotate in a first rotation direction to transfer the molding part along the first direction, and being configured to apply heat to the molding part, and a plurality of pressure parts configured to apply pressure to the molding part.
Claims19
A glass molding apparatus comprising:
- at least one molding part comprising a first molding cast and a second molding cast configured to mold a glass;
- a transfer roller part comprising a plurality of transfer rollers below the molding part, the transfer rollers being arranged along a first direction, being configured to rotate in a first rotation direction to transfer the molding part along the first direction, and being configured to apply heat to the molding part, wherein each of the transfer rollers comprises a first heating member generating the heat;
- and
- a plurality of pressure parts configured to apply pressure to the molding part,
- wherein the first heating member comprises a coil embedded in the respective transfer roller.

A glass molding apparatus comprising:
- an upper surface molding part comprising a plurality of upper surface molding rollers configured to contact an upper surface of a glass, the upper surface molding rollers being arranged along a first direction;
- and
- a lower surface molding part comprising a plurality of lower surface molding rollers configured to contact a lower surface of the glass, the lower surface molding rollers being arranged along the first direction and facing the upper surface molding part along a second direction that is substantially perpendicular to the first direction,
- wherein the upper surface molding rollers are configured to rotate in a first rotation direction, and the lower surface molding rollers are configured to rotate in a second rotation direction opposite to the first rotation direction, to transfer the glass along the first direction,
- wherein each of the upper surface molding rollers and each of the lower surface molding rollers comprises a heating member configured to generate heat, and
- wherein the upper surface molding rollers and the lower surface molding rollers are respectively configured to generate heat at increasing temperatures in the first direction.
