Description

本発明はLEDなどの被塗物に蛍光体などの塗材を塗布する方法及び装置に関する。
本発明の塗布とは、被塗物に対し粉粒体、溶融体、液体などの流体の連続的又は断続的なスプレイ、インクジェット、霧化(含む繊維化)施与、静電霧化(含む繊維化)施与等の粒子や繊維で被塗物に塗布する工法を含みマイクロカーテン施与も含む。
マイクロカーテンとはエアレススプレイノズル等で液体などをスプレイする際、霧になる前の液膜の部分を使用して被塗物に塗布する方法であって被塗物を通り過ぎて距離が広がると霧状に変化する。
また霧化(繊維化)施与とはスプレイによる粒子化も含むが、液体や溶融体などを超音波、エレクトロスピニングなどのスピン、回転体の遠心力、メルトブローン装置などで粒子や繊維をつくり被塗物に塗布する工法を指す。
The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for applying a coating material such as a phosphor to an object such as an LED.
The application of the present invention refers to continuous or intermittent spraying of fluids such as granular materials, melts, and liquids, ink jetting, atomization (including fiberization) application, electrostatic atomization (including) (Fiberization) Including the method of applying to particles to be coated with particles and fibers such as application, including micro curtain application.
A micro curtain is a method of applying a liquid film before spraying to an object when spraying liquid with an airless spray nozzle, etc. It changes in shape.
In addition, atomization (fibrosis) application includes atomization by spraying, but liquids and melts are formed by applying particles and fibers to the liquid, melt, etc. using spins such as ultrasonic waves, electrospinning, centrifugal force of rotating bodies, melt blown devices, etc. It refers to the method of applying to paint.

従来、塗装などの工程でスプレイなどの塗布作業を行う場合、被塗物以外の箇所まで粒子が飛散し付着してしまう現象(業界ではオーバースプレイと呼ぶ)があったため被塗物のハンドリングが難しく、特に薄板タイプ(枚葉)の被塗物の片面をスプレイで全面塗布した後、下流に移動させるためなどの自動化が難しかった。塗材が液体であって凹凸の無い薄板の被塗物はロールコートやカーテンコートで対応できるが凹凸のある被塗物に均一に塗布するにはスプレイなどを応用するしか方法がなかった。 Conventionally, when spraying or other application work is performed in a process such as painting, there is a phenomenon that particles are scattered and adhered to places other than the object to be coated (referred to as overspray in the industry), making it difficult to handle the object to be coated. In particular, it has been difficult to automate, for example, by moving one side of a thin plate type (sheet-fed) object on the whole surface by spraying and then moving it downstream. A thin coated object with a coating material that is liquid and has no unevenness can be handled by roll coating or curtain coating, but the only way to apply uniformly to an uneven coated object is to apply a spray or the like.

特許文献1にはブース内を移動する被塗装体であるプリント基板に略直行して移動するスプレイノズルで塗布剤を噴射し未着の塗布剤を被塗装体の直下に塗布剤受けパレットを設けオーバースプレイした未着塗布剤を回収し再利用する塗布装置が開示されている。 In Patent Document 1, an application agent is sprayed by a spray nozzle that moves substantially straight onto a printed circuit board that is a body to be coated that moves in a booth, and a coating agent receiving pallet is provided immediately below the body to be coated. A coating apparatus that collects and reuses an oversprayed uncoated coating agent is disclosed.

特許文献2は本出願人により出願された塗布方法あるいは装置であって、吸気、排気機構を備えたブース内で被塗物載置ユニット上のLEDなどの被塗物に蛍光体とバインダーと溶剤からなるスラーリー等の液体を塗布器で塗布する方法や装置が開示されている。 Patent Document 2 is a coating method or apparatus filed by the present applicant, in which a phosphor, a binder, and a solvent are applied to a coating object such as an LED on a coating object mounting unit in a booth equipped with an intake and exhaust mechanism. A method and apparatus for applying a liquid such as slurries made of the above with an applicator is disclosed.

特許文献1の詳細の説明でも述べられているように通常の被塗装体のスプレイによる片面塗布では裏面に異物が付着して裏面を接触搬送する場合搬送が難しかった。また仮に特許文献1の方法を採用しても塗布剤受けパレットの底面までの深さが深いと例えば250mm以上になると回収されるまでの間にスプレイ流に乱流が起きて被塗装体の裏面に付着しやすくなり、一方回収パレットの底面とノズルの距離が短いと例えば150mm以下になると、スプレイ流が底面に塗着された瞬間リバウンドが起きて裏面により多く付着しやすい傾向にあった。それを防止するために回収パレット付近の排気スピードを上げると噴霧パターンにまで影響しスプレイ粒子が排気に取られて被塗装体の塗布分布が悪くなり塗着効率が悪くるのが塗装業界の常識であった。 As described in the detailed description of Patent Document 1, single-sided application by spraying a normal object to be coated is difficult to convey when foreign matter adheres to the back surface and the back surface is contacted and conveyed. Even if the method of Patent Document 1 is adopted, if the depth to the bottom surface of the coating material receiving pallet is deep, for example, if it is 250 mm or more, turbulence occurs in the spray flow until it is recovered, and the back surface of the object to be coated On the other hand, when the distance between the bottom surface of the recovery pallet and the nozzle is short, for example, 150 mm or less, the rebound occurs when the spray flow is applied to the bottom surface and tends to adhere more to the back surface. To prevent this, if the exhaust speed near the collection pallet is increased, the spray pattern is affected, spray particles are taken into the exhaust, and the coating distribution of the object to be coated is deteriorated, resulting in poor coating efficiency. Met.

特許文献2ではパルス的スプレイを行うことでA4サイズの被塗物に塗布するに当たり塗着効率を90%以上にすることが可能である画期的な工法であったが、被塗物端面ぎりぎりに均一に塗布する際は被塗物載置ユニットである加熱テーブルにスプレイパターンをはみ出して塗布する必要があり、テーブルへの付着を防止する目的でアルミホイルなどをテーブルの少なくとも被塗物外に敷き、スプレイパターンを被塗物よりはみ出させて塗布していた。そして塗材が付着したアルミホイルなどは定期的にオペレーターが交換し廃棄していた。 In Patent Document 2, although it was an epoch-making method capable of increasing the coating efficiency to 90% or more when applied to an A4 size object by performing pulsed spraying, it is just the end face of the object to be coated. When applying uniformly, it is necessary to apply the spray pattern to the heating table, which is the unit on which the object is placed, and to prevent adhesion to the table, aluminum foil or the like is placed at least outside the object on the table. The spray pattern was spread out from the substrate and applied. The aluminum foil with the coating material attached was regularly replaced and discarded by the operator.

一般塗装分野のスプレイによる塗布では前述のごとく被塗物が枚葉形状のプレートや厚みのある立体的なあるいは複合材からなるような場合であって、被塗物をベルトコンベヤやチエーンコンベヤなどに乗せて移動させスプレイ機器とで相対移動させて塗装する際、塗材をコンベヤや被塗物の裏面に付着させずに全面を均一にコートすることは極めて難しかった。またベルトコンベヤの幅を被塗物より広くしベルトコンベヤに直接被塗物の裏面を接触させて、被塗物の裏面に付着させないよう被塗物全面に均一に塗布すると、被塗物からはみ出した塗布パターンがベルトコンベヤに付着するのでその除去に多くの時間を費やしていた。そのため特許文献1のように被塗装体の裏面を4本のクランクハンドの先端のツメで支えて搬送していた。この方法では排気スピードや塗布方法を工夫し、例えばHVLP(ハイボリュームロープレッシャー)などのエアスプレイなどで低圧で大きな粒子にして塗布する方法や、溶媒などで低固形分になるまで希釈するなどして超低圧霧化方式などのノウハウを駆使して被塗物の裏面付着は防ぐことができたと考える。しかしこの方法では被塗装体に剛性があれば問題ないが、4点以上で支えてもたわみが発生する薄板やフィルムなどの被塗装体には不適であった。一方一般スプレイ塗装分野では被塗物をハンガーなどでつりさげて塗装するしか方法がなく完全な自動化が図れなかった。仮に特許文献1に類似する方法で平板形状の被塗装物を塗装する場合オペレーターにより裏面などの付着状況を確認しながら後工程へのハンドリングを行うしか方法がなかった。 As described above, spray coating in the general coating field is a case where the object to be coated is composed of a sheet-like plate, a thick three-dimensional or composite material, and the object to be coated is a belt conveyor or a chain conveyor. When coating is carried out by moving it on the surface and moving relative to the spray device, it has been extremely difficult to uniformly coat the entire surface without depositing the coating material on the conveyor or the back surface of the object to be coated. If the width of the belt conveyor is wider than the object to be coated and the back surface of the object to be coated is brought into direct contact with the belt conveyor and evenly applied to the entire surface of the object so that it does not adhere to the back surface of the object to be coated, it will protrude from the object to be coated. Since the applied pattern adhered to the belt conveyor, it took a lot of time to remove it. Therefore, as in Patent Document 1, the back surface of the object to be coated is supported while being supported by the claws at the tips of the four crank hands. In this method, the evacuation speed and the coating method are devised, for example, a method of applying large particles at low pressure with an air spray such as HVLP (high volume low pressure), or diluting to a low solid content with a solvent or the like. We believe that we were able to prevent the adhesion of the back surface of the substrate by making full use of know-how such as ultra-low pressure atomization. However, in this method, there is no problem if the object to be coated has rigidity, but it is not suitable for the object to be coated such as a thin plate or a film in which deflection occurs even when supported at four or more points. On the other hand, in the general spray painting field, the only method was to hang the object to be painted with a hanger, etc., and complete automation was not possible. If a flat plate-like object is to be coated by a method similar to Patent Document 1, there is only a method of handling the subsequent process while confirming the adhesion state of the back surface or the like by an operator.

本発明は前述の課題を解決するためになされたもので、本発明の目的は自動的に被塗物の所望する箇所に例えば粉体や熱可塑性樹脂などの溶融体、あるいは常温で液状の塗材を例えばスプレイし仮に一般的なエア圧で霧化させるエアスプレイ方式などを用いたしても所望する箇所を均一に塗布し塗布後の被塗物のマガジンラックなどへの収納あるいは乾燥(BAKING)工程までの一連の流れを自動化させることである。特にLED基板などの付加価値の高い被塗物に蛍光体をスプレイなどにより塗布する場合であっても自動塗布かつ下流への自動搬送、例えば被塗物のマガジンラックなどへの収納あるいはベーキング工程まで自動化できる一連の製造方法および装置を提供することである。 The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the object of the present invention is to automatically apply a molten material such as a powder or a thermoplastic resin or a liquid coating at room temperature to a desired portion of an object to be coated. Even if an air spray method is used to spray the material and atomize with a general air pressure, etc., the desired location is uniformly applied and the coated material is stored in a magazine rack or the like after drying (BAKING) It is to automate a series of flow up to the process. In particular, even when applying phosphors to high value-added objects such as LED boards by spraying, etc., automatic application and automatic conveyance downstream, for example, storage of objects in magazine racks or baking processes It is to provide a series of manufacturing methods and apparatus that can be automated.

本発明の塗布方法および装置によれば被塗物より広い面積のトレイに所望する被塗物を載置しトレイより狭い面積に塗布する。更にはトレイと同じサイズかより外形寸法が大きいマスクを被塗物にセットして塗布できる。そうすることによってたとえ塗布がエアスプレイ式であっても塗材をマスクよりはみ出させずに塗布できる。特に例えばインパクトパルス方式などのエアも塗材もパルス的に行うスプレイで粒子に30度以内好ましくは20度以内の角度の方向性と所望するスピードをもたせば良く、また粒子の飛散が全くないエアレススプレイノズルなどを使用し例えば0.1乃至0.5MPaの低圧で液膜を形成し液膜の部分で塗布するマイクロカーテン装置を使用すれば、トレイに被塗物は吸着されているので被塗物への塗材の裏周りはなく、マスクをセットした場合はマスクより狭い面積に飛散することなく塗布できるので塗材がトレイの裏面に付着することもない。 According to the coating method and apparatus of the present invention, a desired object to be coated is placed on a tray having a larger area than the object to be coated, and is applied to a smaller area than the tray. Furthermore, a mask having the same size as the tray or a larger outer dimension can be set on the object to be coated. By doing so, the coating material can be applied without protruding from the mask even if the application is an air spray type. In particular, for example, an impact pulse method of air and coating material may be applied in a pulsating spray so that the particles have an angle direction within 30 degrees, preferably within 20 degrees, and a desired speed, and there is no air scattering. If a micro curtain device that uses a spray nozzle or the like to form a liquid film at a low pressure of, for example, 0.1 to 0.5 MPa and applies the liquid film portion, the object to be coated is adsorbed on the tray. There is no back of the coating material on the object, and when the mask is set, the coating material can be applied without scattering to a smaller area than the mask, so that the coating material does not adhere to the back surface of the tray.

被塗物は形状、サイズを問うものでないが、半導体基板、LEDセラミック基板やウェハーレベルLEDなどの枚葉タイプやフィルムなどがハンドリングの面から好ましく、トレイはその材質、形状、重量等を問わないがフラット状パネルであってもよく、浅い底の丸や四角形等の盆のようなトレイであってもよい。いずれの形状であっても、被塗物を位置決めするためのピンを設けたり被塗物形状にザグリ加工してセットし、被塗物がトレイ上で動かないようにするなどの工夫をすることが肝要である。その場合であってもテーブルが真空吸着できる構造であってトレイのみならずトレイに加工された孔を通して被塗物を吸着するとより精度の高い位置決めと固定ができるし、テーブルが加熱されていると被塗物への熱伝導速度が速いので好適である。 The object to be coated is not limited in shape and size, but a single wafer type such as a semiconductor substrate, LED ceramic substrate or wafer level LED or a film is preferable from the viewpoint of handling, and the tray is not limited in material, shape, weight, etc. May be a flat panel, or a tray such as a shallow round or square tray. Regardless of the shape, a pin for positioning the object to be coated or set by counterboring the object shape to prevent the object from moving on the tray Is essential. Even in such a case, the table can be vacuum-sucked, and if the object to be coated is sucked not only through the tray but also through the holes processed in the tray, positioning and fixing can be performed with higher accuracy, and the table is heated. This is preferable because the heat conduction speed to the object to be coated is fast.

テーブルに設けられたピンに対しトレイに予め加工された孔が入って位置決めができるようにすることが望ましく、テーブルが加熱テーブルの場合、トレイに加工された複数の孔を通してテーブルに真空吸着させると固定だけでなく熱伝導の面から好適である。熱伝熱を良好にするためとコストの面からトレイ材質は銅、アルミニューム、真鍮などから選択しそれらへ熱伝導、導電性の備わった銀、ニッケルメッキ等が好ましく、被塗物が半導体関連製品あるいは半製品などの付加価値が高い場合はステンレススティール、それより熱伝導度が高い、窒化アルミニューム、窒化ケイ素、炭化ケイ素、アルミナなどのセラミックスを使用してもよい。更にトレイ上の被塗物を加熱テーブルに載置したあとすぐ塗布を行いたい場合は熱伝導性の良い前記材料等を選択したトレイを可能な限り薄く、例えば1mm以下にして、強力にテーブルに吸着させると良い。 It is desirable that holes processed in advance in the tray can be positioned with respect to the pins provided in the table, and when the table is a heating table, if the vacuum suction is applied to the table through a plurality of holes processed in the tray It is suitable not only for fixing but also for heat conduction. In order to improve heat transfer and cost, the tray material is selected from copper, aluminum, brass, etc., and heat conduction, conductive silver, nickel plating, etc. are preferable, and the object to be coated is semiconductor related When the added value of a product or semi-finished product is high, stainless steel and ceramics such as aluminum nitride, silicon nitride, silicon carbide, and alumina having higher thermal conductivity may be used. Furthermore, if you want to apply immediately after placing the object to be coated on the tray on the heating table, make the tray with the selected material with good thermal conductivity as thin as possible, for example 1mm or less, and make it strong on the table. It should be adsorbed.

位置決めをより精度良く行うにはトレイと被塗物の線膨張係数は同等程度のものを使用することが好ましく、テーブルをアルミニュームや銅あるいはそれらの系統で製作し表面に導電性のあるニッケルメッキなどの処理を行う場合はトレイもアルミニュームや銅あるいはそれらの系統にしてブース内での安全性や被塗物を静電気から保護する面からも導電性のある金、銀やニッケルメッキなどの表面処理を行うと良い。仮にテーブルやトレイにフッ素系やセラミックス系による表面皮膜処理を所望する場合はピンや孔部は接地できるように被膜ができないようにするかそれを剥離すると良い。 In order to perform positioning more accurately, it is preferable to use the same linear expansion coefficient between the tray and the object to be coated, and the surface is made of aluminum or copper or their system, and the surface is plated with conductive nickel. When processing such as aluminum, copper or their systems, the surface of gold, silver, nickel plating, etc., which is also conductive from the standpoint of safety in the booth and the surface to protect the coating from static electricity Processing should be done. If a surface coating treatment with fluorine or ceramics is desired for a table or tray, the pins or holes may be grounded or removed so that they can be grounded.

マスクは被塗物と一緒に吸着してもよいが重石の役目をさせる場合は比重の高い例えばアルミニュームの2倍以上のステンレススティールや鉄、ばね鋼などの厚板例えば2mm以上にしてフッ素系やセラミックス被膜処理などを行うと良く、マスクに付着した塗材を回収する場合はコンタミの心配がないセラミックスなどの材質にして剥離性を高めた表面にすることが好ましい。マスクを厚くすると被塗物に対してスプレイ等をする場合影ができやすいため、被塗面に近い部位はシャープエッジになるように、またその影響が出ないような例えば45度以下の角度で加工すると良い。 The mask may be adsorbed together with the object to be coated, but in the case of making it act as a heavy stone, it is high in specific gravity, such as stainless steel, iron, spring steel, etc. more than twice as thick as aluminum, for example, 2 mm or more fluorine type When the coating material adhering to the mask is recovered, it is preferable to make the surface of the material with improved releasability by using a material such as ceramics that does not cause contamination. If the mask is made thicker, shadows are more likely to occur when spraying on the object to be coated, so that the part close to the surface to be coated has a sharp edge and is not affected by, for example, an angle of 45 degrees or less. It is good to process.

本発明では前記被塗物より広い面積のトレイやマスクを使用し、塗材が飛散しにくい塗布器で塗材を塗布できるのでトレイやマスクのハンドリングが容易になるので塗布の上流、下流とも自動化が図れる。 In the present invention, a tray or mask having a larger area than the object to be coated is used, and the coating material can be applied with an applicator that prevents the coating material from being scattered. Can be planned.

トレイとマスクは同じサイズにすると脱着の面で自動機の構造を簡単にできるのでイニシャルコスト的に有利であるがトレイの側面に塗材が少しでも付着するとベーキング工程で硬化され剥離に余分な時間がかかるのでマスクをトレイより広めにすることがより好ましい。
通常熱硬化タイプのシリコーン系バインダーなどを使用した場合、テーブル温度が60℃以下で長時間放置しない場合は硬化が促進されにくいのでマスクに付着した塗材は溶剤を使用すると超音波洗浄器で簡単に溶解洗浄できて固形分を回収し再利用が可能であるが、硬化または硬化が促進すると剥離は難しくなる。再利用したい場合はバインダーとプロセスを十分吟味する必要がある。
塗材が粉体の場合はテーブルを加温する必要がなく、塗布装置は例えば特開平−289955を応用して粉体が飛び散らないようにストライプ状に塗布し、粉体の供給方法はエジェクター方式でも良いが、例えばUS5615830Aを使用するなどして積層し、トレイやマスクに付着した粉体は吸引して除去して再利用することができる。粉体が熱可塑性樹脂や熱硬化樹脂からなるものであれば加熱してレベリングさせ造膜することができるしバインダーを含まない場合は粉体層の上からバインダーを塗布しセットすることができる。
If the tray and the mask are the same size, the structure of the automatic machine can be simplified in terms of desorption, which is advantageous in terms of initial cost. However, if even a small amount of coating material adheres to the side of the tray, it will be cured in the baking process and extra time will be required for peeling. Therefore, it is more preferable to make the mask wider than the tray.
When using a thermosetting silicone binder, etc., if the table temperature is 60 ° C. or lower and the product is not left for a long time, curing is difficult to promote. It can be dissolved and washed, and the solid content can be recovered and reused. However, when curing or curing is accelerated, peeling becomes difficult. If you want to reuse it, you need to carefully examine the binder and process.
When the coating material is powder, there is no need to heat the table, and the coating apparatus applies, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 289955 in stripes so that the powder does not scatter, and the powder supply method is an ejector method. However, for example, US Pat. No. 5,615,830A may be used, and the powder adhering to the tray or mask may be removed by suction and reused. If the powder is made of a thermoplastic resin or a thermosetting resin, it can be heated and leveled to form a film. If it does not contain a binder, the binder can be applied and set on the powder layer.

上記のように本発明によれば被塗物の面積の合計より面積の広いトレイに被塗物を位置決めして載置しその上にマスクを同じく位置決めして載置する。被塗物やマスクは搬送中動かないようにトレイに設けたピンにそれぞれの位置合わせ孔が入り込むようにすると良い。そうすることにより予めセットしたトレイ、被塗物、マスクの3層を一つのワークとしてハンドリングするとより簡単に自動化が図れる。 As described above, according to the present invention, the object to be coated is positioned and placed on the tray having a larger area than the total area of the objects to be coated, and the mask is similarly positioned and placed thereon. It is preferable that the alignment holes enter the pins provided on the tray so that the object to be coated and the mask do not move during conveyance. By doing so, it is easier to automate when handling three layers of tray, workpiece, and mask set in advance as one workpiece.

このような方法や装置を採用することにより従来は不可能と考えられていたスプレイによる塗布であっても自動的に塗布とベーキングが行え、さらにマスクに付着した塗材の回収再利用まで可能にすることができる。 By adopting such a method and equipment, even spraying, which was previously considered impossible, can be applied and baked automatically, and the coating material attached to the mask can be recovered and reused. can do.

以下、図面を参照して本発明の好適な実施形態について説明する。なお、以下の実施形態は発明の理解を容易にするための一例にすぎず本発明の技術的思想を逸脱しない範囲において当業者により実施可能な付加、置換、変形等を施すことを排除するものではない。 Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The following embodiments are merely examples for facilitating understanding of the invention, and exclude additions, substitutions, modifications, etc. that can be implemented by those skilled in the art without departing from the technical idea of the present invention. is not.

図面は本発明の好適な実施の形態を概略的に示している。 The drawings schematically show a preferred embodiment of the invention.

図1において被塗物アッセンブリー11はマガジンラック102に収納されてアンローダー兼ローダー装置101にセットされ、被塗物の下流への移動や塗布後の収納に合わせてマガジンラック102は昇降する。被塗物アッセンブリーはプッシャー(プッシュ/プル機構)103で押されてコンベヤ106で移動する。コンベヤ上の被塗物アッセンブリーはハンドリング装置である自動機104で持ち上げられる着脱個所で停止させる。被塗物アッセンブリー11は自動機のツメ105で持ち上げられテーブル5の上部の被塗物アッセンブリー載置位置まで移動しテーブル5に載置される。テーブルは加熱または必要により冷却してもよく、位置再現性を保つには載置後、被塗物を吸着できる構造にした方が好適である。テーブル上の被塗物アッセンブリー11は塗布ブース111内に遮蔽機構116を開にしてテーブルと連結したY軸114により移動する。テーブル5と同時にY軸114で移動する遮蔽ベルト115はブース111と塗布装置の下部を遮蔽する構造になっている。ブースと外部を遮蔽する機構116は閉になり、被塗物はY軸と直交するX軸113に連結された塗布器112と、Y軸が移動することで塗布される。塗布器112はスプレイ装置で良い。更にパルス的スプレイ装置が塗着効率の面から好適である。テーブル5はまた塗布ブース111とブース下部を遮蔽するベルト115と一緒に同期移動するので吸気フィルター190の上流の吸気口170、図示しない排気フィルター下流の排気口160を除けば、ほぼ密閉系なので排気口の下流に接続された図示しない排気装置で吸引するので塗布器112がスプレイ装置であってもスプレイ粒子が塗布ブース外や塗布装置110の他の箇所に流出し悪影響を与えることはない。所望する数の塗布層に塗布された被塗物アッセンブリー内の被塗物は、被塗物アッセンブリーの載置ポジションまで移動し自動機のツメ115で被塗物アッセンブリーごと持ち上げられコンベヤ106上に移動してコンベヤに載置される。塗材が溶媒などの揮発分を含む場合は塗布後の被塗物をブース外に移動させるに当たり、揮発分の95パーセント以上好ましくは100パーセント揮発させてから移動させるべきである。塗布膜の揮発を促進させるためにテーブルは加熱テーブルが好ましく、さりとて塗膜に溶媒蒸気等による突沸などの問題を生じさせないように被塗物の温度を75℃以下に加温するようにテーブル温度設定をすることが好ましい。被塗物アッセンブリーはコンベヤと同期して動くフック移動装置107のフック108により正確にベルトやチエーンなどのコンベヤでマガジンラックに移動させられる。プッシャー103はプッシュ、プル兼用機構にしても良い。尚、被塗物アッセンブリー11は代わりにトレイの上に被塗物を載置しマスクが無い状態にしても良い。 In FIG. 1, the article assembly 11 to be coated is housed in a magazine rack 102 and set in an unloader / loader device 101. The magazine rack 102 moves up and down as the article to be coated is moved downstream and stored after application. The workpiece assembly is pushed by a pusher (push / pull mechanism) 103 and moved by a conveyor 106. The substrate assembly on the conveyor is stopped at the attachment / detachment point which is lifted by the automatic machine 104 which is a handling device. The article assembly 11 is lifted by a claw 105 of an automatic machine, moved to the article assembly placement position on the upper part of the table 5, and placed on the table 5. The table may be heated or cooled as necessary. In order to maintain position reproducibility, it is preferable to have a structure that can adsorb the object to be coated after placing. The article assembly 11 on the table is moved by the Y axis 114 connected to the table by opening the shielding mechanism 116 in the coating booth 111. The shielding belt 115 that moves on the Y axis 114 simultaneously with the table 5 is structured to shield the booth 111 and the lower part of the coating apparatus. The booth and the mechanism 116 that shields the outside are closed, and the object to be coated is applied by the applicator 112 connected to the X axis 113 orthogonal to the Y axis and the Y axis moving. The applicator 112 may be a spray device. Further, a pulsed spray device is preferable from the viewpoint of coating efficiency. The table 5 also moves synchronously together with the coating booth 111 and the belt 115 that shields the bottom of the booth. Since suction is performed by an exhaust device (not shown) connected downstream of the mouth, even if the applicator 112 is a spray device, the spray particles do not flow out of the coating booth or other parts of the coating device 110 and have no adverse effect. The object to be coated in the object assembly applied to the desired number of application layers is moved to the mounting position of the object assembly, and is lifted together with the object assembly by the tab 115 of the automatic machine, and moved onto the conveyor 106. And placed on the conveyor. When the coating material contains a volatile component such as a solvent, it is necessary to volatilize 95% or more, preferably 100%, of the volatile component before moving the coated object after application to the outside of the booth. In order to promote the volatilization of the coating film, the table is preferably a heating table, and the table temperature is set so that the temperature of the object to be coated is raised to 75 ° C. or less so as not to cause problems such as bumping due to solvent vapor or the like. It is preferable to set. The article assembly to be coated is accurately moved to the magazine rack by a conveyor such as a belt or chain by a hook 108 of a hook moving device 107 that moves in synchronization with the conveyor. The pusher 103 may be a push / pull combined mechanism. Alternatively, the article assembly 11 may be placed in a state in which there is no mask by placing the article to be coated on the tray.

図2は塗布後の被塗物をコンベヤ106からマガジンラックに移動させるためのメカニズムである。フック108はマガジンラックに移動する時に起き上がり、塗布装置110方面に移動する時は倒される構造にする必要がある。 FIG. 2 shows a mechanism for moving the coated object after application from the conveyor 106 to the magazine rack. The hook 108 needs to have a structure that rises when moving to the magazine rack and is tilted when moving toward the coating device 110.

図3はテーブル5の詳細図であってトレイや被塗物等の為の吸着孔31が加工されており、トレイなどを位置決めするためのピン41が設けられている。ピンは市販のノックピンでも良いが、円錐形上に加工してあるとテーブルが加温されトレイが室温であっても、仮に自動機に多少のバラつきがあってもトレイの載置が容易である。 FIG. 3 is a detailed view of the table 5, in which the suction holes 31 for trays and objects to be coated are processed, and pins 41 for positioning the trays are provided. A commercially available knock pin may be used, but if it is processed into a conical shape, the tray can be easily placed even if the table is heated and the tray is at room temperature, even if there is some variation in the automatic machine .

図4はトレイ33であって図3のテーブルの位置決めピン41との位置決めピン用孔42が加工されている。また被塗物用吸着孔32が加工され、被塗物位置決めピン52も設けてある。またトレイを脱着搬送する際の位置決めするためのツメ205をフィットさせるための凹部85も加工されている。 FIG. 4 shows a tray 33 in which positioning pin holes 42 with the positioning pins 41 of the table of FIG. 3 are processed. Further, the workpiece suction hole 32 is processed, and a workpiece positioning pin 52 is also provided. Further, a recess 85 for fitting a claw 205 for positioning when the tray is attached and detached is processed.

図5はトレイ33に被塗物50を載置したものであって、トレイの被塗物用位置決め用ピン52で被塗物50は位置決めされている。更にマスクを吸着させるために被塗物の孔51を利用してトレイの同位置に孔加工してもよい(図4の吸着用穴86)。 In FIG. 5, the object 50 is placed on the tray 33, and the object 50 is positioned by the object positioning pins 52 on the tray. Further, in order to adsorb the mask, holes may be formed at the same position on the tray using the holes 51 of the object to be coated (adsorption holes 86 in FIG. 4).

図6は図5の被塗物50を覆っているマスク12である。図3のテーブルのトレイ位置決め用ピン41は図5のトレイの位置決め孔42を通過しマスクの位置決め孔43まで達している。マスクの厚みの半分まで孔加工して位置決めピンの長さを短くすれば、位置決め孔を貫通させなくすることもできる。またマスクは図5の被塗物50のマスク用吸着孔51で吸着することができる。図4の被塗物用位置決めピン52が長い場合はマスクの裏側の相対する位置に貫通しない穴や溝加工をすると良い。マスクの塗布の為の開口48は図5の被塗物50の有効塗布面積で良く、被塗物より面積が小である。 FIG. 6 shows the mask 12 covering the workpiece 50 shown in FIG. The tray positioning pin 41 of the table of FIG. 3 passes through the tray positioning hole 42 of FIG. 5 and reaches the mask positioning hole 43. If the hole is processed to half the thickness of the mask to shorten the length of the positioning pin, the positioning hole can be prevented from penetrating. Further, the mask can be adsorbed by the mask adsorbing holes 51 of the article 50 shown in FIG. When the object positioning pins 52 shown in FIG. 4 are long, holes or grooves that do not penetrate through the opposite positions on the back side of the mask may be processed. The opening 48 for applying the mask may be an effective application area of the object 50 shown in FIG. 5 and is smaller than the object to be applied.

図7はテーブル5にトレイ33、被塗物50、マスク12が順に位置決めして載置されている。トレイ、被塗物、マスクを被塗物アッセンブリー11として以下に説明する。 In FIG. 7, the tray 33, the object to be coated 50, and the mask 12 are sequentially positioned and placed on the table 5. The tray, the object to be coated, and the mask will be described below as the object to be coated assembly 11.

図8は複数の塗布装置1の入り口が乾燥ライン用ベルトコンベヤ10で連結されている。ベルトコンベヤはチエーンコンベヤでも良い。トレイ、被塗物、マスクの被塗物アッセンブリー11はアンローダー7からベルトコンベヤ10で移送されて塗布器入口でロボットなどの自動機6によりテーブル5への被塗物アッセンブリーの載置位置まで移送されテーブル5のピン41で位置決めされ載置される。テーブルは塗布ブース2出入口の遮蔽手段116を開にして塗布ブース内に入り図示しない塗布器と相対移動し塗材が被塗物に塗布される。塗布ブースへの吸気は吸気口から吸入し、ブース下部の図示しない排気口から排出される。吸気は自然吸気でも良く、強制的に給気し排気(ブースへの気流のPush& Pull)してもよい。また塗布量を一定にしたい場合は塗布重量測定室で自動的に塗布重量を測定し安定していることを確認してから塗布を開始すると品質的に安定する。塗布された被塗物アッセンブリーは塗布装置1の入口のコンベヤベルト10まで自動機6で搬送されトレイ12のみが外されコンベヤラインと並行して動く別のコンベヤベルトに搬送されて下流の塗布機のラインまで移動する。トレイ33上の被塗物50はコンベヤベルト10で下流のベーキングオーブン9に運ばれIRや熱風で塗材の硬化が促進される。所定時間の後ベーキングオーブンから次の塗布機入口へ移動したトレイ上の被塗物50に第一の塗布機で使用したマスクが載置され、塗布機内のブースに運ばれて塗材が積層される。なお最初の塗布で使用したマスクは回収し新しいマスクを使用しても良い。次の被塗物アッセンブリーも順次自動的に搬送塗布を行える。 In FIG. 8, the entrances of a plurality of coating apparatuses 1 are connected by a belt conveyor 10 for a drying line. The belt conveyor may be a chain conveyor. The tray, coating object, and mask coating object assembly 11 is transferred from the unloader 7 by the belt conveyor 10 and transferred to the mounting position of the coating object assembly on the table 5 by an automatic machine 6 such as a robot at the entrance of the applicator. Then, it is positioned and placed by the pin 41 of the table 5. The table enters the coating booth with the shielding means 116 at the entrance / exit of the coating booth 2 opened, and moves relative to a coating device (not shown) to apply the coating material to the object to be coated. Intake to the coating booth is drawn from the intake port and discharged from an exhaust port (not shown) below the booth. The intake may be natural intake, forcibly supplied and exhausted (push & pull of airflow to the booth). When it is desired to keep the coating amount constant, the coating weight is automatically measured in the coating weight measuring chamber to confirm that the coating weight is stable, and then the coating is started and then the quality is stabilized. The coated substrate assembly is conveyed by the automatic machine 6 to the conveyor belt 10 at the entrance of the coating apparatus 1, and only the tray 12 is removed and conveyed to another conveyor belt that moves in parallel with the conveyor line. Move to the line. The object to be coated 50 on the tray 33 is conveyed to the downstream baking oven 9 by the conveyor belt 10 and curing of the coating material is promoted by IR or hot air. After a predetermined time, the mask used in the first applicator is placed on the object to be coated 50 on the tray moved from the baking oven to the next applicator inlet, and the coating material is stacked by being transported to the booth in the applicator. The The mask used in the first application may be collected and a new mask may be used. The next workpiece assembly can also be automatically and sequentially conveyed.

図9は図1の応用タイプであって塗布ブース211で被塗物への塗布終了後、テーブル5の被塗物アッセンブリー載置位置まで移動した被塗物アッセンブリー11のマスクのみを自動脱着装置205で持ち上げ、トレイ上の被塗物はベーキング手段200の下まで移動しテーブルのトレイ吸着を停止して被塗物を加熱する。所望する時間加熱した後、テーブルにトレイを吸着し塗布ブースを通過して被塗物載置位置まで移動し被塗物に前記マスクを再度載置する。そして再度ブース211へ移動して塗材を積層する。マスクをベーキング手段で加熱しないのでマスクへ付着した塗材を超音波洗浄装置で剥離し回収再利用することができる。 FIG. 9 shows an application type of FIG. 1. After the application to the object is completed at the application booth 211, only the mask of the object assembly 11 moved to the object assembly mounting position on the table 5 is removed automatically. The object to be coated on the tray moves to below the baking means 200, stops the adsorption of the tray on the table, and heats the object to be coated. After heating for a desired time, the tray is adsorbed on the table, passes through the coating booth, moves to the object placement position, and the mask is placed on the object again. And it moves to the booth 211 again and laminates a coating material. Since the mask is not heated by the baking means, the coating material adhering to the mask can be peeled off by an ultrasonic cleaning device and recovered and reused.

図10は一般的な塗布装置であってローダー301から被塗物はトレイに載置され搬送され塗布ブース311内の塗布器312で被塗物に塗材を塗布する。この方式では被塗物をテーブルに載置して加熱しないのでトレイに載置した被塗物はベルトコンベヤ330やチエーンなどに乗せて運ばれる。そのため流れ作業的に先入れ先出し方式が採用され塗布後はアンローダー302のマガジンラックなどに収納される。 FIG. 10 shows a general coating apparatus, in which an object to be coated is placed on a tray from a loader 301 and conveyed, and a coating material is applied to the object by an applicator 312 in a coating booth 311. In this system, the object to be coated is placed on a table and is not heated, so that the object to be coated placed on the tray is carried on a belt conveyor 330 or a chain. For this reason, a first-in first-out method is adopted for flow work, and after application, it is stored in a magazine rack of the unloader 302 or the like.

図11は特殊マスクである。例えばリードフレームタイプLEDやセラミックス基板タイプLEDはLEDチップのみに蛍光体を塗布したらよく不必要な個所に塗布することは経済性だけでなくイエローリングの発生などの性能低下になることさえある。このようなLEDの搭載密度が高い基板にはフィルムや金属系の薄板をエッチング等により作成したマスクを基板に吸着させたり粘着剤等を介してラミネートして最終的には図6のようなマスクを使用しても良いがLEDがマルチチップの集合体からなるLEDなどには必要な個所のみに開口部48‘を設けたマスクを使用しマスクに付着した蛍光体を回収し再利用することが合理的である。開口部はLEDの形状に合わせて丸や楕円、多角形にしても良い。 FIG. 11 shows a special mask. For example, in the case of a lead frame type LED or a ceramic substrate type LED, if a phosphor is applied only to the LED chip, it is not only economical but also performance degradation such as occurrence of yellow ring may occur. On such a substrate with a high LED mounting density, a mask made by etching a film or a metal thin plate is adsorbed on the substrate or laminated via an adhesive or the like, and finally the mask as shown in FIG. However, it is possible to collect and reuse the phosphor attached to the mask by using a mask provided with an opening 48 'only at a necessary portion for an LED or the like in which the LED is a multi-chip assembly. Is reasonable. The opening may be round, oval, or polygonal according to the shape of the LED.

本発明では塗布器がエアスプレイあるいは塗材を粒子製造装置で粒子化した後ジェット流で粒子を搬送し塗布する場合、LED基板などの被塗物の表面でのそれらのパターン幅は1乃至15mm程度になるように、かつリバウンドを防ぐ目的からもスプレイ角度は20度以下にすることが好ましい。
またトレイやマスクは被塗物の端面からそれらの端面までは塗布パターンの1.5倍以上、好ましくは2倍以上に広くすることによって特に前述のインパクトパルス工法やマイクロカーテン工法を使用するとトレイなどからスプレイ粒子がはみ出すことはない。
In the present invention, when the coating device transports and applies the particles by jet flow after the sprayer has made the air spray or the coating material into particles by the particle production apparatus, the pattern width on the surface of the coating object such as the LED substrate is 1 to 15 mm. The spray angle is preferably set to 20 degrees or less so as to achieve a degree and to prevent rebound.
In addition, the tray or mask is widened to 1.5 times or more, preferably 2 times or more of the coating pattern from the end surface of the object to be coated by using the above-described impact pulse method or micro curtain method. Spray particles do not protrude from the surface.

また本発明の塗布方法をPEFCなどの燃料電池電極形成に応用することができる。塗材を燃料電池電極触媒とし、被塗物をGDL(ガスディフュージョンレイヤー)や電解質膜とすることができる。とくに電極触媒が触媒と電解質溶液と溶媒からなるスラーリー(SLURRY)を溶媒や水分で瞬間的に変形する電解質膜にスプレイ塗布する場合、電解質膜を加熱吸着しながら薄膜で積層塗布することが重要であり、触媒は高価だけでなく発火のリスクがあるためトレイやマスク以外にスプレイ粒子を飛散させないようにすることが肝要である。 The coating method of the present invention can be applied to the formation of fuel cell electrodes such as PEFC. The coating material can be a fuel cell electrode catalyst, and the object to be coated can be a GDL (gas diffusion layer) or an electrolyte membrane. Especially when the electrode catalyst is applied to the slurry film (SLURY) consisting of a catalyst, electrolyte solution and solvent on an electrolyte film that is instantly deformed with a solvent or moisture, it is important to apply a thin film while heating and adsorbing the electrolyte film. In addition, since the catalyst is not only expensive but also has a risk of ignition, it is important to prevent the spray particles from scattering other than the tray and the mask.

本発明によればスプレイ工法を用いても被塗物を載置したトレイからはみ出すほど塗布する必要がないので、トレイや被塗物への裏周りがないため自動化を図ることができる。またマスクを使用することにより例えば付加価値の高いLEDを高品位に保ちながらマスク上の高価な蛍光体を回収して再利用するので大幅なコスト低減ができる。 According to the present invention, even if the spray method is used, it is not necessary to apply so much as to protrude from the tray on which the object is placed, and therefore automation can be achieved because there is no back around the tray or the object. Further, by using a mask, for example, expensive phosphors on the mask can be collected and reused while keeping high value-added LEDs in high quality, so that the cost can be greatly reduced.
