The alignment film 211 is disposed on the upper surface of the first glass substrate 21, and the liquid crystal droplets 231' diffuse fast along the alignment direction x (as shown by the dotted line in fig. 1) but diffuse slowly along the non-alignment direction y, so that when the two glass substrates are pressed and bonded, the alignment direction x is punctured or contaminated, even the liquid crystal leaks, and bubbles are generated in the non-alignment direction y.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting of the invention. It should be noted that, for convenience of description, the accompanying drawings only show some but not all of the structures related to the present invention, and in addition, the accompanying drawings only show the connection relationship of the structures, and the relative position relationship of the structures in the accompanying drawings represents the relative position relationship in the actual product.
Fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a liquid crystal dropping device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, and referring to fig. 3, the liquid crystal dropping device 1 includes a liquid crystal container 11, a liquid crystal transmission pipeline 12, a liquid crystal nozzle 13, at least one gas transmission pipeline 14, and at least one gas nozzle 15; the liquid crystal nozzle 13 is communicated with the liquid crystal container 11 through a liquid crystal transmission pipeline 12, and the liquid crystal nozzle 13 drops liquid crystal on the glass substrate to form liquid crystal drops; the gas nozzle 15 is communicated with a gas source through a gas transmission pipeline 14, and the gas nozzle 15 sprays gas to the liquid crystal droplets to diffuse the liquid crystal droplets in a preset direction.
The preset direction can be, for example, a direction with a slow diffusion speed, and the liquid crystal droplets are diffused partially in advance in the direction with the slow diffusion speed by air injection so as to compensate the influence of uneven diffusion of the liquid crystal when the two glass substrates are pressed and attached; in addition, the preset direction can be any diffusion direction, and at the moment, the degree of diffusion in advance in the direction with low diffusion speed needs to be ensured to be larger so as to make up the influence of uneven diffusion of the liquid crystal when the two glass substrates are pressed and attached.
As described above, the presence of the alignment film, for example, causes a difference in the diffusion speed of the liquid crystal in different directions, resulting in uneven diffusion of the liquid crystal. Therefore, optionally, the preset direction intersects with the alignment direction of the glass substrate, wherein the glass substrate is a color film substrate or an array substrate.
Because the diffusion speed of the alignment direction is high, but the diffusion speed of the non-alignment direction is low, the preset direction can be set to be crossed with the alignment direction of the glass substrate, so that the liquid crystal can partially diffuse towards the non-alignment direction in advance to make up for the influence of uneven diffusion. And moreover, the preset direction is intersected with the alignment direction, so that the gas nozzle almost sprays gas in one direction, and the control is simpler.
Exemplarily, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of a liquid crystal droplet formed on a glass substrate by using a liquid crystal dripping device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 4, a liquid crystal droplet 231 is formed on a first glass substrate 21, and as can be seen from fig. 4, compared to fig. 1, since the liquid crystal dripping device 1 provided by an embodiment of the present invention injects gas to the liquid crystal droplet through a gas nozzle 15, a part of diffusion of the liquid crystal droplet 231 along a predetermined direction (e.g., a non-alignment direction y) is completed in advance. Thus, when the two glass substrates are pressed and attached, the liquid crystal amount in the alignment direction is reduced due to the increase of the liquid crystal amount in the non-alignment direction, so that the problems of puncture, pollution or leakage and the like can not occur even if the liquid crystal diffusion speed in the direction is high, and the bubbles can not be generated even if the liquid crystal diffusion speed in the direction is low because the non-alignment direction is partially diffused, and finally, a uniformly distributed liquid crystal layer can be formed. Fig. 5 is a schematic structural view of a liquid crystal display panel formed by laminating glass substrates under pressure based on the structure shown in fig. 4, and as shown in fig. 5, a first glass substrate 21 and a second glass substrate 22 are laminated with liquid crystal in a liquid crystal layer 23 uniformly distributed therebetween.
In a specific manufacturing process, after the liquid crystal nozzle 13 drops liquid crystal onto the glass substrate to form one liquid crystal drop, the liquid crystal dropping device 1 may move along the non-alignment direction y to drop another liquid crystal drop at a next position, and during this movement, the gas nozzle 15 may be used to inject gas to the liquid crystal drop to advance the liquid crystal drop to partially diffuse the liquid crystal drop toward the non-alignment direction, and finally, a plurality of liquid crystal drops 231 shown in fig. 4 are formed on the first glass substrate 21.
For example, the gas source may use the gas existing on the production line, or a gas container dedicated for the liquid crystal dropping device may be provided, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present invention. The gas source is preferably a dry and clean gas to avoid affecting the quality of the liquid crystal display panel.
It should be noted that fig. 3 illustrates only an example in which the liquid crystal dropping device 1 includes 2 gas transmission pipes 14 and two gas nozzles 15, and the structure is not limited thereto, and the number of gas nozzles is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
