Description

Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a horizontal wet processing jig, and more particularly to the field of attaching a flexible flat substrate to an arch surface reference portion of the jig to form an arch surface and then fixing it to a desired arcuate flexible substrate. .

Since the flexible substrate does not have rigidity, it is easily damaged by bending deformation or bending. Therefore, during the fabrication process, it must be attached to a clamping jig, and the flexible substrate must be protected from bending deformation and bending damage during transport and processing by the rigid structure of the clamping jig.

In the chemical wet process, the clamping jig is a planar jig structure. electric circuit pattern is formed. In the flat substrate type work, the chemical is retained in some areas of the flexible substrate, especially in the middle area, causing a pooling effect, causing unevenness in the chemical, making it difficult to manage the product specifications of the process and increasing the defect rate. It stops high. On the other hand, many of the mechanical designs of known planar clamping fixtures are complicated, costly to manufacture, and difficult to maintain. This is a problem that cannot solve the water sump effect.

The main purpose of the present invention is to apply an arch jig to shape a flexible substrate into the shape of an arch-shaped flexible substrate, and then, in a wet process, quickly apply a chemical liquid by its own weight to both the left and right sides of the arch-shaped flexible substrate. to evenly distribute the chemical solution over the surface of the arcuate flexible substrate to reduce the sump effect caused by pooling of the chemical solution in some areas of the substrate.

The next object of the present invention is to design the structure of the flat jig into the arched jig, thereby simplifying the structural design of the whole invention, reducing the manufacturing cost, and thus reducing the maintenance of the arched jig. It is easier and more convenient than maintenance.

To achieve the above objects, the present invention provides a horizontal wet process fixture, particularly a fixture for finishing flexible flat substrates into arch-shaped flexible substrates. The jig includes a body forming an arch surface and a fixture coupled to the body forming the arch surface, the body forming the arch surface having an arch surface reference, the side of the arch surface reference being the arch. The arcuate surface datum affixes the flat flexible substrate to its top surface to provide for the formation of the arcuate flexible substrate. A fixture provides for securing the arcuate flexible substrate to the arch surface datum to form the arcuate flexible substrate to the desired arch surface.

The present invention relates to a jig 100 for finishing a flexible flat substrate into an arch-shaped flexible substrate. The jig 100 includes a body 1 forming an arch surface and a fixture 2 connected to the body 1 forming the arch surface. A main body 1 forming an arch surface has an arch surface reference portion 11, and the side surface of the arch surface reference portion 11 forms an arch shape. Arch surface reference 11 includes a first side 111 , a central arch surface location 112 and a second side 113 opposite first side 111 . The centerline of the central arch surface location 112 is the point of maximum curvature, and the height gradually decreases toward the first side 111 and the second side 113, where the first side 111 and the second side 113 are the lowest. .

From the foregoing description, it can be seen that jig 100 forms an aspect of an arcuate jig. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the fixture 2 has a fitting portion 21 which is connected to the side surface of the arch surface reference portion 11 . A body 1 forming an arched surface has a hollow portion 12 and a fitting portion 21 is provided at a location near the hollow portion 12 .

Specifically, when the flexible flat substrate 3 is attached to the jig 100, as shown in FIG. The surface position 112 and the second side surface 113 are pressed against each other so that the arch surface reference part 11 sticks the flexible flat substrate 3 on its upper surface tightly to form the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4 . A fixture 2 provides for securing the arcuate flexible substrate 4 to the arcuate surface reference portion 11 to form a predetermined arcuate surface on the arcuate flexible substrate 4 . That is, after attaching the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4 to the jig 100 , the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4 follows the first side 111 , the central arch surface position 112 and the second side 113 of the arch surface reference portion 11 . , the arc-shaped flexible substrate 4 automatically forms an arch shape from the central position to both sides, and the lowest positions on both sides of the flexible substrate 4 are tightly attached to the fitting portions 21 of the fixture 2 . The support ribs 13 reinforce the support and fix the arcuate surface molding of the arcuate flexible substrate 4 . In addition, in the subsequent wet process, the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4 is affected by the impact force of the chemical solution spray, and a partial area of the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4 becomes a water reservoir effect due to the retention of the chemical solution in the jig 100 . can be avoided.

Preferred locations for the roller grooves 22 are located on the first side 111 and the second side 113 of the arch surface reference portion 11 . Among them, a plurality of supporting ribs 13 of the main body 1 forming the arch surface are provided at intervals.

Please refer to the schematic diagrams of the nestable fixture in FIGS. The body 1 forming the arched surface further comprises a plurality of overlapping ribs 15 . A plurality of overlapping ribs 15 are located near the central arch surface location 112 of the arch surface datum 11 and overlap adjacent fixtures 100 by the plurality of overlapping ribs 15 . Among them, the overlapping rib 15 has a protrusion 151 formed on the upper surface of the main body 1 forming the arch surface, and a groove 152 formed on the lower surface with respect to the upper surface position. The width of the groove 152 is slightly wider than that of the protrusion 151 . As an example, the two jigs 100 and 100' are connected to each other by the lower grooves 152 located in the upper jig 100 fitting the projections 151 on the top surface of the jig 100'. can be superimposed. Such a stacking method stacks a plurality of jigs, which is advantageous for the subsequent production process.

Please refer to FIG. 7, a schematic diagram of a fourth embodiment of the horizontal wet process fixture of the present invention. The fixture 2 further comprises a plurality of spaced fixtures 23 . A plurality of fixtures 23 are located at locations near the first side 111 and the second side 113 of the arch surface datum 11 . A plurality of fixtures 23 are respectively clamped and fixed on both sides of the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4, that is, clamped at the lowest positions on both sides of the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4, and are used for subsequent wet process operations. The jig 100 can sandwich the flexible substrate 4 more stably. Of course, if desired, the arcuate flexible substrate 4 can be provided with a plurality of fixtures 23 spaced apart on the body 1 forming the arch surface and provided at the central arch surface location 112 of the arch surface reference portion 11 . are fixed by sandwiching them with fixtures 23.

The liquid spray device 52 sprays the chemical liquid vertically onto the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4, and gravity causes the chemical liquid to form an arch surface shape toward both sides from the maximum curved portion at the center of the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4. Then, the height is gradually lowered to quickly discharge to the lowest position, and the chemical liquid can be discharged to the outside through the discharge hole 14 of the main body 1 forming the arch surface. In this way, the chemical solution is evenly distributed on the surface of the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4, and the chemical solution does not stay in a part of the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4, and the water reservoir of the arch-shaped flexible substrate 4 is formed.
