Zusammenfassung:Method of manufacturing flat glass in which a glass ribbon is moved along a bath of molten metal and a traction is applied to the final glass belt to accelerate its displacement to a final discharge speed, thus producing glass while accelerating a progressively increasing drag of molten metal from the bath above an upstream circulation of molten metal cooler from the outlet end of the bath characterized in that in the region of the bath where the final velocity of discharge of the tape is obtained, the return flow upstream of the molten metal cooler is received in a region of the bath deeper than the adjacent regions producing from this deeper region of the bath molten metal circulations oriented upstream to compensate for the molten metal entrained by the accelerating tape.
