An apparatus for use in direct resistance heating of a molten glass-carrying vessel, such as a finer or connecting pipe, is provided. The apparatus comprises a flange comprises a plurality of electrically-conductive rings that include an inner ring joined to the vessel's exterior wall during use of the flange and an outer ring that receives electric current during use of the flange. The innermost ring comprises a high-temperature resistant metal preferably comprising at least 80% platinum, and the outermost ring preferably comprising at least 99.0% nickel. This combination of materials both increases the reliability of the flange and reduces its cost. Either one or both of the width or thickness of one or both of the inner or outer rings varies as a function of angular position relative to the vessel. The width and / or thickness of the inner and the outer rings with relation to each other produces a uniform current distribution in the flange and the vessel.

The present invention is one kind of continuously smelting furnace and the method of producing specially shaped quartz tube and quartz rod therewith. The continuously smelting furnace includes furnace body, heater, heat insulating material, large furnace cover, small furnace cover, tungsten crucible, core bar, shaper and discharge stage. Both discharge stage and the shaper located over the discharge stage are circular, square, triangular or in other shapes for producing quartz tube and quartz rod in the corresponding shape. The present invention is superior in that specially shaped quartz tube and quartz rod may be produced by means of selecting shaper and discharge stage in corresponding shape and altering the location of shaper.

The present invention is glass material feeding method and device for controlling glass flow rate. The present invention controls glass flow rate through changing the rotation direction and / or rotation speed of the stirrer inside the stirring bath so as to control the liquid level inside the glass bowl and control the glass flow rate inside the falling pipe. The glass material feeding device is one capable of changing the energy the glass melt obtains from the stirrer when the stirrer changes its rotation direction and / or rotation speed. The present invention has convenient glass flow rate control.

A hollow tubular body for molten glass by which local-overheating in the electrode for conduction heating is prevented.A hollow tubular body for molten glass by which local-overheating in the electrode for conduction heating is prevented. A hollow tubular body having a platinum or platinum alloy hollow tube, used for conduction heating is characterized in that a ring electrode is joined to the outer circumference of the hollow tube, at least one lead-out electrode is joined to an outer edge of the ring electrode, and the ring electrode comprises a core portion of electrode of platinum or platinum alloy and a thick portion of platinum or platinum alloy or of a metallic material other than platinum or platinum alloy, provided at an outer side of the core portion of electrode.

A manufacturing method of a glass blank for magnetic disk including a pair of principal surfaces, the method including: dropping process for dropping a lump of molten glass; pressing process for forming a sheet glass material by sandwiching simultaneously the lump from both sides of the dropping path of the lump with surfaces of the pair of dies facing together, and performing press forming to the lump; and temperature adjusting process for adjusting temperature of the lump before the pressing process such that viscosity variation of the lump is reduced with respect to positions over the entirety of the lump in the pressing process.

In the method molten glass emerges from an outlet opening of a melt feed. The molten glass is drawn over a shaping body so as to form a hollow drawing bulb. According to the invention, the drawing bulb is drawn over a profile forming body positioned downstream of the shaping body so that inner circumferential surfaces of the drawing bulb are deformed while abutting against outer surfaces of the profile forming body to form the predetermined inner profile. The distance between the shaping body and the profile forming body can be changed to vary the wall thickness of the glass tube.
