The articulated robot 23A is a so-called six-axis robot capable of displacing the cutting blade 23C at any position and any angle within the working range.

The operation of the sheet sticking device EA1 including the above-described support device EA will be described.
First, the user of the sheet sticking apparatus EA1 (hereinafter, simply referred to as “user”) is placed on the sheet sticking apparatus EA1 in which each member is arranged at an initial position shown by a solid line in FIG. After setting the source RS, a signal for starting automatic operation is input via an operation panel (not shown) or an operation mechanism such as a personal computer. Next, a user or a transport mechanism (not shown) such as an articulated robot or a belt conveyor places the adherend WK at a predetermined position on the adherend support surface 11A as shown by a solid line in FIG. Then, the support mechanism 10 drives a pressure reducing mechanism (not shown) to start suction holding of the adherend WK on the adherend support surface 11A.

  Thereafter, the attaching mechanism 20 drives the linear motor 22C, and lowers the pressing roller 22F as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. Press down with. Next, the attaching mechanism 20 drives the rotation motor 21L to take up the release sheet RL and the adhesive sheet base AB, and that the tension of the adhesive sheet base AB located on the support mechanism 10 has reached a predetermined value. When the rotation is detected by the load cell 21G, the driving of the rotation motor 21L is stopped. Then, the attaching mechanism 20 drives the linear motion motor 21F, sandwiches the raw sheet RS between the pressing member 21D and the guide roller 21B, and suppresses the feeding of the adhesive sheet base material AB. Next, the attaching mechanism 20 drives the linear motors 21P, 21R, and 21T to move the pressing roller 22F to the right as shown in FIG. 2 so that the tension detected by the load cell 21G does not deviate from a predetermined value. The frame 21S is moved in the left-right direction and the up-down direction, and the adhesive sheet base AB is pressed against the adherend WK and the sheet support surface 11C by the pressing roller 22F to be attached. At this time, the pressing roller 22F rolls while pressing on the sheet support surface 11C. However, since the rough surface portion 11D has a size within the range of the support region of the adhesive sheet base material AB on the sheet support surface 11C, The entire rough surface portion 11D is covered with the adhesive sheet base material AB, and the pressing roller 22F is not pressed by the rough surface portion 11D.

  When the bonding of the adhesive sheet base material AB to the adherend WK is completed, the bonding mechanism 20 drives the articulated robot 23A, and as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. The cutting blade 23C is moved along the outer periphery of the adherend WK. As a result, the adhesive sheet AS remains attached to the adherend WK, and the unnecessary sheet US is formed on the outer periphery of the adhesive sheet AS. Thereafter, the attaching mechanism 20 drives the linear motor 21T and the rotation motor 21W, and collects the unnecessary sheet US with the collection roller 21Z while moving the frame 21V to the right as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. Next, the attaching mechanism 20 stops driving of the pressure reducing mechanism (not shown), and releases the suction holding of the adherend WK on the adherend support surface 11A. Then, when the user or a transport mechanism (not shown) transports the adherend WK to which the adhesive sheet AS has been pasted to the next step, the pasting mechanism 20 drives the linear motors 21F and 22C, and presses the pressing member 21D and the guide roller 21B. And release the pinch of the raw fabric RS, and raise the pressing roller 22F. Next, in a state where the attaching mechanism 20 stops driving of the rotation motor 21W, each mechanism drives each driving device, returns each member to the initial position, and places the adhesive sheet base AB on the support mechanism 10. The same operation is repeated thereafter.

  According to the above-described embodiment, since the rough surface portion 11D has a size within the range of the support region of the adhesive sheet base material AB on the sheet support surface 11C, the entire rough surface portion 11D is covered with the adhesive sheet base material AB. Therefore, when pressing the adhesive sheet base material AB with the pressing roller 22F, it is possible to prevent the pressing roller 22F from being damaged by being pressed by the rough surface portion 11D.

For example, the support mechanism 10 performs a roughening process on the support region of the adhesive sheet base material AB on the sheet support surface 11C to form a rough surface portion 11D, and a smoothing process on the non-support region of the adhesive sheet base material AB on the sheet support surface 11C. The non-rough surface portion 11E may be smoothed than the rough surface portion 11D, or the non-support region of the adhesive sheet base material AB on the sheet support surface 11C may be subjected to a smoothing process to form the non-rough surface portion 11E. By not performing the roughening treatment on the support area of the adhesive sheet base material AB on the support surface 11C, the roughened surface portion 11D may be rougher than the non-roughened surface portion 11E, or the adhesive sheet base may not support the adherend WK. The support member may support only the material AB. In this case, the pressing member may press the adhesive sheet base material AB only on the sheet support surface 11C, or may support the adherend support surface 11A or the concave portion. 1B may be equipped on the table 11 may not be provided.
The table 11 may include an opening or a through-hole in which the adherend WK can be arranged. In this case, an adherend support device that supports the adherend WK is provided separately from the support device EA.

The attaching mechanism 20 may be configured to attach a single sheet of the adhesive sheet base material to the adherend WK. For example, the adhesive mechanism 20 may be formed on a band-shaped adhesive sheet base material AB temporarily attached to the release sheet RL in a closed loop or in the short width direction. Is formed, a predetermined region partitioned by the cut employs a raw material having a single sheet adhesive sheet substrate, and the single sheet adhesive sheet substrate is peeled from the release sheet RL.

Instead of the rollers 21B, 21C, etc., the sheet RS may be supported or guided by a plate member or a shaft member, or the release sheet RL or the unnecessary sheet US may be collected. May be supported without being wound, for example, by fanfold folding, or the release sheet RL or the unnecessary sheet US may be collected, for example, by fanfold folding without being wound, or by chopping with a shredder or the like. Alternatively, the release sheet RL or the unnecessary sheet US may be collected simply without being wound or fan-folded, or the release sheet RL or It may not be recovered main sheet US, may move the frame 21S in a single driving device.
The cutting mechanism 23 cuts into a different shape without cutting into the same shape as the outer peripheral shape of the adherend WK as the shape of the adhesive sheet AS left in a state of being adhered on the adherend WK. The cutting may be performed so as to be larger than WK or smaller than the adherend WK.

If a heat-sensitive adhesive is used, a suitable coil heater or a heat pipe such as a heat pipe for heating the adhesive sheet substrate AB may be used. The bonding may be performed by an appropriate method such as providing a heating mechanism such as the above. The adhesive sheet substrate AB is, for example, a single layer having only an adhesive layer, an adhesive layer having an intermediate layer between the substrate sheet and the adhesive layer, and having a cover layer on the upper surface of the substrate sheet. Layers or more, furthermore, it may be a so-called double-sided adhesive sheet capable of peeling the substrate sheet from the adhesive layer, and the double-sided adhesive sheet has a single-layer or multiple-layer intermediate layer It may be a single layer or a multilayer having no intermediate layer. Examples of the adherend WK include foods, resin containers, semiconductor wafers such as silicon semiconductor wafers and compound semiconductor wafers, circuit boards, information recording substrates such as optical disks, glass plates, steel plates, pottery, wood plates, and resin plates.
