    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems for shaping a glass sheet comprising a roll conveyor comprising a plurality of rollers for conveying the glass sheet along a plane; a lift jet array comprising a plurality of nozzles, one or more of the plurality of nozzles comprising a tip having a plurality of orifices; and a shaping mold located above the roll conveyor, wherein the lift jet array is positioned below the roll conveyor such that each nozzle tip is located above the centerline of the plurality of rollers. Also disclosed herein are methods for shaping a glass sheet comprising heating the glass sheet and conveying the glass sheet on a roll conveyor to a position between the lift jet array and the shaping mold, wherein gas flows from the lift jet array with a force sufficient to lift the glass sheet from the roll conveyor.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems for shaping a glass structure comprising a shaping mold; a radiation heating source; and a radiation shield, wherein the radiation shield is positioned substantially between the radiation source and the glass structure and wherein the radiation shield comprises an outer wall defining a cavity having a first opening disposed to face the glass structure and a second opening disposed to face the radiation heating source. Also disclosed herein are methods for shaping a glass structure comprising positioning the glass structure on a shaping mold; introducing the shaping mold and glass structure into a furnace comprising a radiation heating source; and heating the glass structure, wherein a radiation shield is positioned substantially between the glass structure and the radiation heating source. Methods and systems employing multiple, e.g., concentric, radiation shields are also disclosed.

    Abstract: A process and system for forming a curved glass article from a sheet of glass material is provided. The process and system includes supporting a glass sheet on a shaping frame and then heating the sheet of glass material while supported by the shaping frame such that the central region of the sheet of glass material deforms into an open central cavity of the bending frame. The process and/or system are configured such that a steep, localized temperature differential is formed in the region adjacent the outer edge of the glass sheet during the heating stage of the shaping process.
