Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "Apparatus and method for cutting a glass sheet." This invention discloses a method that involves heating a heating element to a specific temperature, which in turn heats a glass sheet along a desired cutting line to a separation temperature. The glass sheet is then subjected to non-destructive pressure at an edge on the cutting line, applied by a tool with opposed sharp edges. This method allows for the glass sheet to spontaneously separate along the heated cutting line after an adequate heating time. Another significant patent is "Apparatuses and methods for scoring a glass article." This patent describes methods and apparatuses for scoring a glass article by positioning a plasma flame of a plasma torch in close proximity to the glass article and moving the plasma torch across the surface to form indentations, creating a scoring line without penetrating through the total thickness of the glass article.
