Abstract:
A method for manufacturing an LCD panel comprises: (a) continuously feeding an LC cell comprising first and second substrates, the first substrate being relatively less susceptible to electrostatic decay than the second substrate, (b) laminating a first polarizing plate to the first substrate of the LC cell while avoiding direct contact between the first laminating member and the first substrate; (c) laminating a second polarizing plate to the second substrate with the first substrate being in contact with a second laminating member through the first polarizing plate laminated to the first substrate in the step (b) while avoiding direct contact between the second laminating member and the first substrate, thereby obtaining an LCD panel, and (d) conducting an inspection of the LCD panel without applying voltage, wherein steps (a), (b), (c) and (d) are performed sequentially in a single continuous feed line.
Abstract:
A manufacturing system and manufacturing method for an optical display device, which adheres upper and lower optical films to the optical display device using two rolls having optical anisotropies in the same direction, so that the optical anisotropies are orthogonal to each other. The manufacturing system includes a first feeding device for feeding a first optical film after cutting to a predetermined length, and a second feeding device for feeding a second optical film after cutting to a predetermined length. The first feeding device and the second feeding device correspond to the longer side and the shorter side of the optical display unit, so that the optical film having a width corresponding to the shorter side may be cut to a length corresponding to the longer side, whereas the optical film having a width corresponding to the longer side may be cut to a length corresponding to the shorter side.
Abstract:
A method for continuously manufacturing an optical display device comprises feeding a continuous web of optical film laminate including a continuous web of releasable film that includes a conductive layer and an optical film sheet that includes a conductive layer formed on the releasable film, bending the releasable film at a peeling body located in close vicinity of a lamination position, collecting the releasable film and thereby peeling the optical film sheet from the optical film laminate, sending the optical film sheet to the lamination position, and laminating the optical film sheet with a panel member which is conveyed to the lamination position by a panel conveying channel which makes at least a double-storied structure with a portion of a collecting channel where the releasable film is collected, attenuating static electrification generated on the optical film sheet, and continuously laminating the optical film sheet with the panel member.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing an optical display device comprising: after completing lamination of a preceding optical film sheet to one of opposite surfaces of a preceding panel component at the predetermined laminating position, unwinding the carrier film in a state where another surface thereof folded to inside at a tip-end configuring a head portion of a peeling member and the carrier film is passed around the peeling member, and backwardly feeding a leading end of the optical film sheet supported on the carrier film to a predetermined feeding position provided at upstream of the tip-end of the peeling member.
Abstract:
A system for manufacturing an optical display device includes providing a roll of a belt-shaped sheet material including an optical film and a release film, which has score lines previously formed by cutting layers of the material other than the release film. The optical film is bonded to a rectangular optical display unit of the display device. In the bonding steps, a first optical film is divided by the score lines into pieces each having a length corresponding to a long side of the display unit, and a second optical film is divided by the score lines into pieces each having a length corresponding to a short side of the display unit. The first optical film has a first polarizing plate whose longitudinal direction is parallel to its absorption axis, and the second optical film has a second polarizing plate whose longitudinal direction is parallel to its absorption axis.
