点位置に置く光学系を用いた。 FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a conventional method of assembling a glass plate for a liquid crystal display element. In the figure, the upper and lower glass plates 1 and 2 are used to align the patterns of a microscope and a television (hereinafter abbreviated as TV) consisting of an objective lens 3 and a relay lens 4.
The camera 5 captures an enlarged image. At this time, patterns 1a, 2a and 1b, 2b can be observed simultaneously if the distance d between the upper and lower glass plates is set to less than the depth of focus of the microscope, but patterns 1a, 2a and 1b, 2b can be observed simultaneously, but due to variations in glass plate thickness and the need for high magnification for highly accurate positioning. Since an optical system is used, the depth of focus is shallow, so patterns cannot be observed at the same time. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the arrangement of the optical system for explanation. In the figure, an optical system was used in which the objective lens 3 was moved up and down a distance d as shown in the figure, and each pattern was placed at a focal position.

A fine movement table (not shown) having a function of moving the lower glass plate 2 is operated in the x, y, and θ directions in order to make it coincide with the white lines 8a, 9a, 8b, and 9b on the screen. If the centers of patterns 2a and 2b coincide with the white line, if the fine movement table is raised a distance d in the z direction, the upper and lower plates 1 and 2 will be aligned with the pattern by the adhesive applied around the lower plate 2 in advance. are assembled in unison. Here, it takes time to move the white lines 8 and 9 using the white line moving device 10 and the white line display circuit 6, resulting in a decrease in efficiency.
