Abstract
A curved screen laminating apparatus and a laminating method is provided. The flexible display panel is driven to bend via a photoactive polymer layer which is controlled by a light source; next, the bent flexible display panel and the curved glass are laminated; last, the flexible display panel and the curved glass are laminated. Compared with the prior art, air bubbles are effectively discharged from edges by employing a segmented lamination which ensures product yields.
Claims20
A curved screen laminating apparatus for laminating a flexible display panel to a curved glass to form a curved screen, comprising a holding platform, a suction platform, a deformation member, and a smoothing member,
- wherein the holding platform is configured to hold the flexible display panel;
- wherein a non-luminous side surface of the flexible display panel comprises a photoactive polymer layer, and the holding platform comprises a holding surface with a protuberant form;
- wherein the suction platform and the holding platform are movably disposed relative to each other for suction of the curved glass;
- wherein the deformation member comprises a light source, the light source is configured to irradiate the photoactive polymer layer such that the photoactive polymer layer is deformed, thereby bending the flexible display panel;
- and
- wherein the smoothing member is configured to attach the flexible display panel to a surface of the curved glass.
