Abstract
An apparatus for manufacturing a liquid crystal display is provided with a first supporter for supporting a first substrate with the state of restraining the displacement in a surface direction of the first substrate on a first surface plate, a second supporter for supporting a second substrate with the state of restraining the displacement in a surface direction of the second substrate on a second surface plate, a pressurized for press-welding the first and second substrates by pressing the first and second surface plates, and a position-aligning mechanism for performing an alignment between the first and second substrates while the pressing means presses the first and second surface plates.
Claims9
An apparatus for manufacturing a liquid crystal display constituted by bonding a first substrate and a second substrate disposed opposite to each other with a liquid crystal intervened between them, said apparatus comprising:
- first and second surface plates having first and second substrate suckers disposed in parallel to each other, each of said first and second substrate sucker sucking said first and second substrates, respectively;
- a vacuum chamber in which said first and second surface plates are provided;
- a first supporter which supports said first substrate with the state of restraining the displacement in a surface direction of said first substrate on said first surface plate;
- a second supporter which supports said second substrate with the state of restraining the displacement in a surface direction of said second substrate on said second surface plate;
- a pressurizer for press-welding said first and second substrates by pressing said first and second surface plates;
- and
- a position-aligning mechanism which performs an alignment between said first and second substrates while said pressurizer presses said first and second surface plates.
An apparatus for manufacturing a liquid crystal display constituted by bonding a first substrate and a second substrate disposed opposite to each other with a liquid crystal intervened between them, said apparatus comprising:
- a liquid crystal dropping unit which drops a liquid crystal on said first substrate;
- a resin applying unit which applies a photo-curable resin on said first substrate;
- first and second surface plates having first and second electrostatic suckers disposed in parallel to each other, each of said first and second electrostatic suckers sucking said first and second substrates, respectively;
- a vacuum chamber in which said first and second surface plates are provided;
- a first supporter which supports said first substrate with the state of restraining the displacement in a surface direction of said first substrate on said first surface plate;
- a second supporter which supports said second substrate with the state of restraining the displacement in a surface direction of said second substrate on said second surface plate;
- a pressurizer for press-welding said first and second substrates by pressing said first and second surface plates;
- a position-adjusting table for performing an alignment between said first and second substrates by sliding said first surface plate in two axial directions parallel to the surface of said first surface plate and in a circumferential direction having an axis vertical to the surface of said first surface plate as a rotating axis, while said pressurizer presses said first and second surface plates;
- and
- an ultraviolet irradiator which irradiates ultraviolet rays to said photo-curable resin in the state that said first and second substrates are press-welded.
