The transfer cylinder 532 adjusts the initial position and the final position at which the pressure roller main body 531 contacts and presses the display panel D, and adjusts the feeding speed and the section repeating operation of the pressure roller main body 531. Here, the transfer cylinder 532 may adjust the position of the initial pressing roller body 531 according to the size of the display panel (D) and the touch panel (T). Therefore, since the pressure roller part 530 has a feedback structure that detects the pressure of the load cell 540 and controls the servo motor 533 by using the control part, the pressure roller part 530 can always maintain a constant pressing force.

On the other hand, the lower stage 400 is moved in the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis direction by the first transfer robot 710 is moved to the coupling position in contact with the upper stage 500.

The alignment unit 600 aligns the positions of the display panel D and the touch panel T adsorbed on the upper stage 500 and the lower stage 400 to be bonded to each other at the correct position. To this end, the alignment unit 600 is automatically aligned in a vision manner by the upper camera 610 and the lower camera 620. The upper camera 610 is provided in the upper region of the lower stage 400 to photograph the position of the display panel D loaded on the lower stage 400, and the lower camera 620 is the lower region of the lower stage 400. The position of the touch panel T provided on the upper stage 500 is photographed.

The positions of the touch panel T and the display panel D are aligned based on the images photographed by the upper camera 610 and the lower camera 620, and finally the alignment correction unit 420 of the lower stage 400. Moves to align the position.

When the plasma cleaning unit 800 bonds the touch panel T and the display panel D, the plasma cleaning unit 800 cleans the bonding surface of the touch panel T that is moved from the initial position to the bonding position using plasma.

The main body 810 is moved to spray plasma to the entire area of the touch panel T. FIG.

When the plasma is sprayed, as the bonding surface of the touch panel T exposed and exposed to the air is reduced, the surface is clean and the bonding force is increased. Experimental results show that the adhesion increases about 5 times on average compared to before plasma injection.

5 is an operation diagram illustrating a state in which the touch panel and the display panel of the panel bonding apparatus of FIG. 3 according to the present invention are bonded.

A bonding process of the touch panel T and the display panel D will be described below with reference to FIG. 5.

First, as shown in (a), the display panel D is mounted on the lower stage 400. And, the upper stage 500 moved to the initial position, the optical adhesive is located on the touch panel (T) attached to the upper surface.

Thereafter, when the position of the touch panel T is fixed to the upper stage 500 as shown in (b), it is clamped and adsorbed to the upper stage 500, and the touch panel is rotated by 180 degrees using the rotating motor 520.

Thereafter, as shown in (c), the second transfer robot 720 moves the upper stage 500 in the direction of the lower stage 400. In this case, the plasma cleaner 800 is disposed in the transfer path of the upper stage 500 to move left and right along the axial direction, and sprays plasma to the coupling surface of the touch panel T with the display panel D. As a result, the bonding surface of the touch panel T is cleanly cleaned before bonding, thereby creating an excellent bonding environment.

Thereafter, the upper stage 500, which has been cleaned by the plasma cleaner 800 as shown in (d), is moved to the coupling position on the lower stage 400 by the second transfer robot 720. In this state, the upper camera 610 and the lower camera 620 read the alignment positions of the touch panel T and the display panel D to align the respective positions.

Thereafter, when the position correction by the alignment unit 600 is completed as shown in (e), the position is additionally corrected by the alignment correction unit 420 of the lower stage 400. At this time, the correction may be automatically implemented by the vision system.

Then, as shown in (f), when the position correction of the upper stage 500 is completed, the upper stage main body 510 descends at a constant speed so that the touch panel T and the display panel D are in surface contact with each other or the touch panel T ) Is gently placed on the display panel (D) by the load of the product.

At this time, the upper stage 500 provides a pressing force in the bonding direction of the display panel (D) to be in contact with the optical adhesive on the touch panel (T) and the display panel (D).

On the other hand, as shown in (g) and (h), the pressure roller unit 530 is lowered at the start of the bonding to move while maintaining a constant pressure, the touch panel (T) and the display panel (D) may be bonded. have. Therefore, in this case, the pressure roller unit 530 is lowered and the pressure that is pressurized when the pressure in the pressure roller body 531 is recognized by the pressure load cell 540 and displayed through the indicator, while the pressure measurement value is in communication with the control unit The pressing force of the pressure roller main body 531 is controlled to maintain a constant range.

The above-described constant pressing force is applied to the upper substrate 302 and the upper substrate 302 to maintain a constant air layer 305 between the upper substrate 302 and the lower substrate 303 of the touch panel 300 of the inner type touch screen device 300 shown in FIG. 2. Bonding is performed at a pressure in the range of 5 to 100 kgf, which is a pressure condition that does not destroy the cell gap 304 supporting the lower substrate 303, and the pressure condition is related to the moving speed of the bonding process process conditions To establish.

The moving speed of the pressing roller body 531 moving while being bonded is associated with the amount of air pushed to one side by pressurization of the air layer 305 between the upper substrate 302 and the lower substrate 303 of the touch panel of the inner type touch screen device. To set the range from 1 to 50 mm / sec.

In general, in the panel bonding apparatus of the present invention, the condition of bonding the touch panel T and the display panel D is that the thin glass of the upper substrate 302 of the touch panel of the inner type touch screen device is not damaged, and the cell gap is not damaged. In the case of this non-breaking condition, the pressing force is in the range of 10 to 30 kgf, and the moving speed of the pressure roller part 530 is in a stable bonding process condition in the range of 5 to 25 mm / sec.

As a result, the panel bonding apparatus according to the present invention cleans the bonding surface by using plasma, thereby improving the bonding efficiency, thereby improving product quality and increasing yield.

In addition, the panel bonding apparatus according to the present invention can provide a pressing force also in the line contact method by the pressure roller in addition to the surface contact method by the pressing unit can be selectively used as necessary. In addition, it is possible to apply the product by applying the surface contact method and line contact method at the same time.
