Title: Method and apparatus for delivering a cased glass stream
Inventor: SCOTT GARRETT L
IPC: C03B9/31
Filed: 1997-09-08
Granted: 2004-08-24
Abstract: Apparatus for forming a cased glass stream having an inner core glass surrounded by an outer casing glass includes a spout for receiving core glass from a first source and delivering such glass through a first orifice. A second orifice is vertically spaced beneath and aligned with the first orifice, and is surrounded by an annular chamber that communicates with the second orifice through the gap between the first and second orifices. A tube delivers casing glass from a second source to the annular chamber in such a way that glass flows by gravity from the first and second sources through the orifices to form the cased glass stream. The core glass delivery spout includes a reservoir for receiving and holding the core glass, and having at least one lower opening of a first diameter. An orifice ring is positioned beneath the reservoir, and has at least one opening of second diameter less than the first diameter aligned with the first opening and forming the first orifice. A  collar of uniform inside diameter equal to the first diameter extends from the first opening to the orifice ring, and thereby spaces the reservoir from the orifice ring so as to increase hydrostatic head pressure on glass flowing from the reservoir through the first orifice. The core glass reservoir is surrounded by a metal casing, and the casing glass delivery tube extends through a notch in the sidewall of the core glass casing. An air-cooled liner controls heat transfer from the casing glass delivery tube to the core glass reservoir.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for separating a low frequency voice signal from a high frequency data signal propagating on an analog loop connecting the central office of the PSTN to a CPE. The apparatus includes a low pass filter connected in series with the tip and ring conductors of the analog loop to extract the voice signal. The apparatus also includes a high pass filter to reject the low frequency voice signal, leaving only the higher frequency components. The high pass filter features a transformer including two balanced primary winding sections, one section being in series with the tip conductor and one section being in series with the ring conductor. A junction circuit is coupled to the high pass filter to provide the signal exchange functionality needed to separate the transmit and receive components of the high speed data signal. The junction circuit includes a transmit component output coupled to a secondary winding section of the transformer for passing the transmit component applied to a transmit component input of the junction circuit to the analog loop through the transformer of the high pass filter. The junction circuit also includes a composite signal input for receiving a composite signal from a second section of the secondary winding that is a combination of the transmit component and the receive component. A processing circuit in the junction circuit extracts the receive component by canceling the transmit component in the composite signal.
