Abstract
A system for testing a distortion of a liquid crystal display (LCD) device can test the LCD device within a chamber in a state of being assembled perpendicular to the ground, whereby whether any distortion occurs in an internal component can be fast detected even in severe conditions of high temperature and high humidity and under an actual installation environment of a user.
Claims6
A system for testing a distortion of a liquid crystal
- display (LCD) device, comprising:
- a base;
- a fixing unit that fixes the LCD device, the fixing unit being rotated on one end side thereof so that a display face of the LCD device is vertical to a ground;
- a laser sensor on the base at front side or rear side of the LCD device that irradiates light to the LCD device to measure a displacement of an internal component thereof;
- a conveyer at a front side or rear side of the LCD device, the laser sensor being mounted to the conveyor and movable relative to the LCD device during a testing of the distortion of the LCD device;
- and
- a controller that detects a position of an internal component of the LCD device based upon information input by the laser sensor, and compares the detected position with a preset position of the corresponding internal component to determine a distortion of the component,
- wherein the light from the laser sensor is reflected from the internal component and then incident to the laser sensor to detect a position of the internal component,
- wherein the LCD device, the fixing unit, the laser sensor and the conveyer are disposed within a chamber in which a temperature and a humidity are varying to test LCD device in environments of various temperature and humidity,
- wherein the LCD device has a display region extended in x and y directions and a thickness in the z-direction and the laser sensor is conveyed and continuously moved in the x and y directions at the front side or rear side of LCD device to scan the display region of the LCD device in x and y directions by the conveyer during the testing of the distortion of the LCD device,
- wherein the laser sensor comprises a non-transmission type laser sensor, wherein light emitted from the non-transmission type laser sensor is irradiated into the LCD device via a window in a lower cover.
