A device for forming partition walls of a plasma display panel is disclosed. This device has a lower plate used for seating the base panel of the plasma display panel thereon, with a partition wall sheet of a predetermined thickness formed on the base panel and a plurality of electrodes arranged on the base panel. A punch, having a plurality of partition wall forming grooves and a plurality of lands formed between the partition wall forming grooves. An electrode holding groove or inclined surface is formed on each of the lands and is used for preventing the electrodes from being undesirably moved during a partition wall forming process. An upper plate is positioned above the punch so as to hold the punch and to move the punch in a vertical direction within a predetermined range. Due to the electrode holding grooves or the inclined surfaces formed on the lands, the device of this invention thus almost completely prevents an undesired movement of the printed address electrodes of the base panel, thus finally allowing a precise arrangement of the partition walls with the address electrodes on the base panel.
A device for forming partition walls of a plasma display panel, comprising:
A device for forming partition walls of a plasma display panel by pressing a partition wall sheet of a predetermined thickness, formed on a base panel of the plasma display panel, using a punch, wherein the punch is a roll punch having a predetermined diameter with a rotating shaft mounted to a central axis of said roll punch, said roll punch also having a plurality of partition wall forming grooves, with a plurality of lands formed between said partition wall forming grooves and used for pressing the partition wall sheet during a partition wall forming process, and electrode holding means formed on each of said lands and used for holding printed electrodes of the partition wall sheet so as to prevent the electrodes from being undesirably moved during said partition wall forming process.
A partition wall forming punch producing apparatus including a bite for forming both a plurality of partition wall forming grooves and a plurality of lands on a punch used for forming a plurality of partition walls on a base panel of a plasma display panel, wherein said bite has a tip used for forming said partition wall forming grooves on the punch, and is also provided with a convex cutter at a position around said tip for forming an electrode holding groove on each of said lands of the punch.
A partition wall forming punch producing apparatus including a bite for forming both a plurality of partition wall forming grooves and a plurality of lands on a punch used for forming a plurality of partition walls on a base panel of a plasma display panel, wherein said bite has a tip used for forming said partition wall forming grooves on the punch, and is also provided with an inclined cutter at a position around said tip for forming an electrode holding inclined surface on each of said lands of the punch.
A base panel for plasma display panels having both a plurality of partition walls and a plurality of electrodes, wherein a plurality of inclined bottoms are formed on a partition wall sheet of said base panel at positions above said electrodes between said partition walls, said inclined bottoms being linearly inclined upwardly in a direction from opposite sides to a central portion of the base panel.
