ABSTRACT:
A glass grinding apparatus includes a base, a support grid mounted on the base to carry a work piece for grinding, a fluid holder disposed below the support grid, a drive shaft for rotating a grinding bit above the support grid, a power source for rotating the drive shaft, a fluid applicator for applying irrigation fluid to a grinding bit mounted on the drive shaft, and a splash protector adapted for connection to the grinding apparatus adjacent to the drive shaft to trap irrigation fluid and grinding debris sludge that are spun off from the grinding bit as it is rotated during grinding operations. The fluid applicator is formed as a fluid transfer brush that wicks irrigation fluid from the fluid holder to the grinding bit. The splash protector is formed with a channel member carrying a hanging curtain that contacts or is closely spaced from the support grid. The curtain is formed by one or more drape elements selected from the group consisting of fibers, bristles, strips of defined width, and sheet material. It is flexible enough to allow a work piece to be maneuvered past the splash protector during grinding operations.
