Description

Be used to detect the detection method and the equipment thereof of liquid crystal panel gap length
Technical field
The present invention is particularly to a kind of detection method and checkout equipment thereof of panel gap size relevant for a kind of detection method and checkout equipment thereof.
Background technology
LCD Technology utilizes liquid crystal as photoswitch, to control picture brightness and the color that LCD is exported.And in the middle of LCD, liquid crystal is poured among two sheet glass to suck or the mode that splashes into.After liquid crystal filling is finished, as shown in Fig. 1 a, whether liquid crystal panel 2 can be placed on the detection platform 3 by level, and detects the gap length (cell gap) of this liquid crystal panel 2 by a gap length sensing apparatus 1, be poured into uniformly among the liquid crystal panel 2 to confirm liquid crystal.The detection mode of gap length sensing apparatus 1 is generally that earlier 2 emissions one detect light beam 11 to liquid crystal panel, receives a Returning beam 12 that reflects from this liquid crystal panel 2 again, and detecting detects the phase delay between light beam 11 and the Returning beam 12, and according to formula:
Phase delay=(nx-ny) * gap length (1)
Just can calculate the gap length of liquid crystal panel 2, wherein (nx-ny) is the birefraction of liquid crystal.
Yet along with the size of LCD increases gradually, the amount of liquid crystal in the liquid crystal panel also increases gradually.Therefore, when liquid crystal panel is vertically put when show image (for example, under general user mode), liquid crystal is subjected to the influence of gravity easily and flows downward.With reference to Fig. 1 b, it shows the inner structure synoptic diagram of liquid crystal panel 2, when liquid crystal panel 2 vertical storings, liquid crystal 22 between the sheet glass 21 be subjected to gravity and according to arrow indicated be directed downwards mobile, therefore cause the gap length of liquid crystal panel 2 inhomogeneous (for example, the gap length of liquid crystal panel 2 Lower Halves is bigger).So can reduce the display quality of LCD, and shorten the life-span of display.
Yet the liquid crystal panel that existing gap length detection mode is all only put at level detects, and therefore can't detect the above-mentioned gap length non-uniform phenomenon that is produced by gravity effect.
And, when LCD was used, its temperature raise gradually, was heated and under the situation about expanding at sheet glass, the aforementioned gap length non-uniform phenomenon that produces because of gravity effect is even more serious, and existing gap length detection mode and can't detecting at this problem.
Summary of the invention
The present invention has been and has solved above-mentioned prior art problems, and a kind of detection method is provided, and changes with the gap length that detects a liquid crystal panel, comprises the steps: at first to provide a gap length sensing apparatus; Then that this liquid crystal panel is upright, and, allow this liquid crystal panel arrive a detected temperatures to this liquid crystal panel heating; At last, this upright liquid crystal panel is detected, change with the gap length of measuring this liquid crystal panel with this gap length sensing apparatus.
Because the present invention is directed to the liquid crystal panel that is in erectility detects, therefore, use the present invention, can effectively detect the gap length non-uniform phenomenon that liquid crystal panel produces because of gravity effect.And the present invention heats liquid crystal panel when detecting simultaneously, the situation that artificial actual that therefore can be certain uses, when detecting actual use liquid crystal panel the gap length problem that may produce.
