摘要:
A substrate bonding apparatus for bonding substrates together in a vacuum at high speeds, with a high degree of accuracy includes a first chamber C1, a second chamber C2, and a third chamber C3. Two substrates to be bonded together are loaded in the first chamber C1. The two substrates are bonded together in the second chamber C2. The two substrates bonded together are unloaded in the third chamber C3. The first and third chambers are variably controlled from an atmospheric pressure state to a medium vacuum state. The second chamber is variably controlled from the medium vacuum state to a high vacuum state.

A bonding apparatus, suitable for accurately bonding large substrates for a liquid crystal display, includes Z-axis drive mechanisms, and upper and lower chambers. The Z-axis drive mechanisms for moving an upper frame vertically are disposed at four corners of a mount. The upper chamber is supported by the upper frame and has an upper table inside. The lower chamber has a lower table inside and is supported on the mount. The upper and lower chambers are united through a seal ring to define a vacuum chamber. Moving the upper frame moves the upper chamber vertically to open or close the vacuum chamber. The lower table is supported via a free joint stage between the plurality of support legs and the table, and is moved horizontally by a side thrust mechanism disposed outside of the vacuum chamber.

摘要:
With substrates to be bonded together becoming larger, there are problems in that a bonding apparatus needs to be built larger to maintain accuracy of products and operation of such a bonding apparatus becomes more complicated. A bonding apparatus includes Z-axis drive mechanisms, an upper chamber, and a lower chamber. The Z-axis drive mechanisms for moving an upper frame vertically are disposed at four corners of a mount. The upper chamber is suspended from the upper frame and has an upper table inside. The lower chamber has a lower table inside. The lower table is supported on the mount via a plurality of support legs. The upper chamber and the lower chamber are united together through a seal ring to define a vacuum chamber. The upper table is coupled to the upper frame and moved by the Z-axis drive mechanisms via the upper frame. Moving the upper frame moves the upper chamber vertically to open or close the vacuum chamber. The lower table is supported via a free joint stage between the plurality of support legs and the table. Further, the lower table is moved horizontally by a side thrust mechanism disposed on the outside of the vacuum chamber.

摘要:
One substrate is supported by an attracting and adsorbing operation and by an adhesive means provided inside a pressurizing plate; the other of substrate, on which a liquid crystal agent is dropped, is supported on a table by an attracting and adsorbing operation or by an adhesive means. Then, the pressure inside the chamber is reduced until a designated reduced pressure level is attained, and the pressure is increased after the substrates come firmly into contact with an adhesive agent that has been provided on the other of substrates, so that the individual substrates are attracted and adsorbed by the pressurizing plate and the table, whereby the substrates are laminated while positioning the substrates. Then, by retracting the adhesive means in the pressurizing plate or the table, the adhesive member is removed from the substrate surface, while or after twisting the adhesive member.
