Abstract

In a fabricating method for a quartz vial having a body part for containing a substance, a bottom part closing a lower end of the body part, a cylindrical neck part disposed at an upper end of the body part, a cylindrical mouth part disposed above the neck part and having an outer diameter larger than that of the neck part, and a tapered portion connecting the mouth part and the neck part to each other, outer peripheral surfaces of the tapered portion and the neck part are formed by shaving, and the body part that is separately fabricated is welded to the neck part. Thus, quartz vials having a predetermined shape can be mass-fabricated.

Claims (18)

1. A fabricating method for a quartz vial having a body part for containing a substance, a bottom part closing a lower end of the body part, a cylindrical neck part disposed at an upper end of the body part, a cylindrical mouth part disposed above the neck part and having an outer diameter larger than an outer diameter of the neck part, and a tapered portion connecting the mouth part and the neck part, the fabricating method comprising the steps of:

forming outer peripheral surfaces of the tapered portion and the neck part by grinding, cutting or polishing; and

after the step of forming the outer peripheral surfaces of the tapered portion and the neck part by grinding, cutting or polishing, joining by thermal fusion, to the neck part, the body part that is separately fabricated.

2. The fabricating method for a quartz vial according to claim 1 , further comprising the step of forming an inner peripheral surface of the mouth part by shaving.

3. The fabricating method for a quartz vial according to claim 1 , further comprising smoothing the ground, cut or polished outer peripheral surfaces of the tapered portion and the neck part by heating with a burner.

4. A fabricating method for a quartz vial having a body part for containing a substance, a bottom part closing a lower end of the body part, a cylindrical neck part disposed at an upper end of the body part, a cylindrical mouth part disposed above the neck part and having an outer diameter larger than an outer diameter of the neck part, and a tapered portion connecting the mouth part and the neck part, the fabricating method comprising the steps of:

forming an outer peripheral surface of the tapered portion by grinding, cutting or polishing; and

after the step of forming the outer peripheral surface of the tapered portion by grinding, cutting or polishing, joining by thermal fusion, to the tapered portion, the neck part that is separately fabricated.

5. The fabricating method for a quartz vial according to claim 4 , further comprising the step of forming an outer peripheral surface of the neck part by shaving.

6. The fabricating method for a quartz vial according to claim 5 , further comprising the step of forming an inner peripheral surface of the mouth part by shaving.

7. The fabricating method for a quartz vial according to claim 4 , further comprising the step of forming an inner peripheral surface of the mouth part by shaving.

8. The fabricating method for a quartz vial according to claim 4 , further comprising smoothing the ground, cut or polished outer peripheral surface of the tapered portion by heating with a burner.

9. A fabricating method for a quartz vial having a body part for containing a substance, a bottom part closing a lower end of the body part, a cylindrical neck part disposed at an upper end of the body part, a cylindrical mouth part disposed above the neck part and having an outer diameter larger than that of the neck part, and a tapered portion connecting the mouth part and the neck part, the fabricating method comprising the steps of:

forming an outer peripheral surface of the tapered portion and an outer peripheral surface of the neck part by grinding, cutting or polishing a quartz glass member; and

after the step of forming the outer peripheral surface of the tapered portion and the outer peripheral surface of the neck part by grinding, cutting or polishing the quartz glass member, forming the body part by hot working a portion of the quartz glass member adjacent to the neck part,

wherein the entire quartz vial including the tapered portion, the neck part and the body part is integrally formed from a single quartz glass member.

10. The fabricating method for a quartz vial according to claim 9 , further comprising the step of forming an inner peripheral surface of the mouth part by shaving.

11. The fabricating method for a quartz vial according to claim 9 , further comprising smoothing the ground, cut or polished outer peripheral surface of the tapered portion and the outer peripheral surface of the neck part by heating with a burner.
