Manufacturing method of flat-panel display device and bonding press apparatus therefor

A manufacturing method of a flat-panel display device that is comprised of:

• a display panel formed of a transparent insulator substrate;
• and a transparent protector sheet attached on the display panel to cover its viewing area;
• comprising:
• applying of adhesive resin onto the transparent protector sheet or onto the viewing area of the display panel to form circular or ellipsoidal dot patterns of applied adhesive resin on a to-be-bonded area;
• reversing the protector sheet or the display panel having on its upside the dot patterns of applied resin so that the dot patterns of applied resin come to and is kept at underside;
• vacuum chucking from upside the protector sheet or the display panel having on its underside the dot patterns of applied resin, on an upper chucking part;
• vacuum chucking from underside the display panel or the protector sheet on a lower chucking part;
• assembling the display panel and the protector sheet so as to sandwich a layer of the adhesive resin;
• and
• curing of the adhesive resin sandwiched between the display panel and the protector sheet;
• and
• said assembling comprising:
• approaching of the upper chucking part to the lower chucking part so that approaching rate is no more than a predetermined rate at a time undermost tip of the applied resin in the resin-application pattern is collided with upside surface of the display panel or the protector sheet;
• and
• further approaching of the upper chucking part, after having been collided, to the lower chucking part at a rate no less than three times of the approaching rate at a time being collided as to proceed squeezing of the layer of the adhesive resin, and stopping the further approaching at a time the thickness of the layer reaches a second predetermined thickness.
