ABSTRACT:
Apparatus is disclosed for tempering curved glass sheets suspended in a vertical orientation. The apparatus comprises a pair of opposed manifolds each having a plurality of nozzles and positional adjustment means to optimize the heat exchange effect between the tempering station and the sheet of glass. A first adjustment means adjusts the orientation of the manifold with respect to the surface of the glass by means of four independently adjustable screw jacks that mount the manifold on a frame. A second adjustment means adjusts the horizontal spacing between the manifold and the surface of the glass by means of four screw jacks that operate in unison. In addition, another displacement means permits the manifold to be displaced from its tempering position to facilitate the insertion and removal of the glass sheets between the two manifolds. Advantageously, the displacement means is mounted on the second adjustment means.
