The present invention relates to an inkjet printing apparatus, and more particularly, it is possible to effectively stir the ink so that nanoparticles dispersed in the ink do not agglomerate and maintain a uniformly dispersed state. The present invention relates to an inkjet printing apparatus capable of minimizing the effect of negative pressure applied inside a reservoir by reducing the flow of ink that can be used.

Such an inkjet device can be utilized in a patterning process of displays and semiconductors, which are being emphasized in importance according to the recent rapid development of information and communication technology and market expansion.

In particular, the typical application fields of the inkjet device include a pin insertion type of Dual In-line Package (DIP), TSOP (Thin Small Out-Line Package), QFP (Quad Flat Package) type, and pin type. Various types of balls such as FBGA (Fine Ball Grid Array), CSP (Chip Scale Package), Stack Package, Flip Chip Package, WLP (Wafer Level Package), etc. There is a semiconductor packaging field and a flat panel display device-related field such as a liquid crystal display, a plasma display panel, and an organic light emitting diode display.

Meanwhile, a conventional semiconductor manufacturing process and a display manufacturing process include a photo lithography process.

The photolithography process of the semiconductor manufacturing process is a process of making a mask with a metal pattern on a glass plate according to a desired circuit design, irradiating light toward the mask, and transferring and copying the resulting shadow on the wafer.

The photolithography process of the semiconductor manufacturing process consists of various and complex detailed processes such as a wafer cleaning process, a photoresist deposition process, a photoresist stripping process, an etching process, a developing process, and an exposure process. In addition, the photolithography process of the display manufacturing process also includes complicated detailed processes.

However, as described above, when the inkjet printer apparatus is applied and applied to the semiconductor manufacturing process and the display manufacturing process, a desired pattern can be made directly without going through the conventional complicated photolithography process, so the efficiency of the semiconductor manufacturing process and the display manufacturing process is increased. Therefore, the inkjet printing process technology is currently expanding its application range throughout the display process technology.

Recently, with the development of solution process materials applied to the OLED stack structure, the inkjet printing method that enables precise discharge and consumes less chemical liquid is being actively used in OLED device technology. In particular, attempts are being made to eject nanostructure-based materials (hereinafter, nanoparticles) such as quantum dots (QDs) and metal oxide nanoparticles (MOx), which are attracting attention as next-generation materials, through inkjet printing process technology.

However, since these nanoparticles are partially positively and negatively charged by the van der Waals force due to the intrinsic properties of the material, an aggregation phenomenon may occur, in which the nanoparticles agglomerate with each other, Nanoparticles may also precipitate due to an increase in weight, which has a problem in that it is difficult to finely eject ink through inkjet printing.

In order to solve these problems, there is a need for techniques for preventing the nanoparticles from aggregating inside the reservoir by attaching a stirring device for stirring the ink to the reservoir.

1 is a view schematically showing a conventional reservoir using a magnetic stirrer. As shown here, in the related art, a stirring bar 3 of a bar magnet is disposed inside the reservoir 2 and the reservoir A magnetic stirrer 4 that generates a magnetic field from the outside is used to stir the ink, or alternatively, a method of circulating the ink by mounting a pump in the reservoir was used.

However, a negative pressure state is applied to the reservoir, and the negative pressure is controlled to keep the potential energy of the stored ink constant. In this way, when the ink is stirred using a magnetic stirrer or a pump, the ink Since a vortex can be generated by the flow, the negative pressure state precisely tuned inside the reservoir is affected, and as a result, there is a problem that can affect the quality of the inkjet printing process.

In addition, since many valves and pumps must be applied inside the reservoir in order to attenuate the effect of the negative pressure state that may occur due to the vortex of the ink, the overall size of the inkjet printing apparatus increases, and the cost of the entire module increases. There is a problem that causes

Here, the ink refers to an ink formed by dispersing nanoparticles, particularly nanostructure-based materials such as quantum dots (QDs) and metal oxide nanoparticles (MOx), which are attracting attention as next-generation materials, and these nanoparticles have the properties of conductors or semiconductors. bands are particles.

When these nanoparticles are dispersed in the ink, because the nanoparticles are partially positively and negatively charged by the van der Waals force due to the intrinsic properties of the material, aggregation of the nanoparticles to each other As described above, there is a problem that it is difficult to finely eject ink through inkjet printing because of the phenomenon that may occur.

Therefore, in order to solve these problems, by providing the stirred ink reservoir 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the nanoparticles do not agglomerate and maintain a uniformly dispersed state, so that the nanoparticles in the reservoir are agglomerated It is possible to maintain the quality of the inkjet printing process by preventing the phenomenon of sedimentation or sedimentation.

Furthermore, as described above, in the case of using a conventional reservoir using a magnetic stirrer and a pump, a vortex is generated by the flow of ink, which affects the precisely tuned negative pressure state inside the reservoir, and as a result, the inkjet It is possible to solve problems that may affect the quality of the printing process.

As shown in detail in FIGS. 2 and 3 , the agitated ink reservoir 1 includes a reservoir body 10 , an ink flow reduction type nanoparticle dispersion unit 30 , and a negative pressure control valve 50 . and a heater 70 and a water level sensor module 90 .

The reservoir body 10 serves to store the ink formed by dispersing the nanoparticles, and by including the upper body 11 and the lower body 12, the maintainability of the agitated ink reservoir 1 can be improved. have.

The ink flow reduction type nanoparticle dispersion unit 30 is disposed in the reservoir body 10, and serves to agitate the ink so that the nanoparticles do not agglomerate and maintain a uniformly dispersed state, and an electric field-forming stirring module 300 , and an ultrasonic vibration-type stirring module 500 , and an ink flow reduction module 700 .

First, the electric field-forming stirring module 300 serves to stir the ink by forming an electric field so that the nanoparticles do not agglomerate and maintain a uniformly dispersed state, thereby moving the nanoparticles, and a pair of It includes electric field forming units 310a and 310b and a power supply unit (not shown).

3 and 4 , the pair of electric field forming units 310a and 310b are spaced apart from each other inside the reservoir body 10 , and the power supply unit (not shown) forms a pair of electric field forming units. It is connected to the unit 310 and serves to supply power to the pair of electric field forming units 310 .

Each of the pair of electric field forming units 310a and 310b is coupled to the fixing pillars 311a and 311b which are disposed through the upper body 11 of the reservoir body 10 and the fixing pillars 311a and 311b to the lower portion thereof. It includes thin-film electrodes 312a and 312b, and each of the pair of electric field forming units 311a and 311b is coated with Perfluoro Alkoxy (PFA).

By being coated with PFA as an insulator, it can have corrosion resistance, and it is possible to prevent the nanoparticles from adhering to the electrodes 312a and 312b as they are precipitated.

The electrodes 312a and 312b of the pair of electric field forming units 310a and 310b are disposed to face each other at both ends of the inside of the reservoir body 10, and have a thin film shape, so that the nanoparticles can have a greater effect. surface area can be maximized.

Accordingly, the area of the electrodes 312a and 312b having the thin film shape may be provided to occupy almost the area of both ends without contacting the inner surface of the reservoir body 10 as shown in FIG. 3 . have.

Referring to FIG. 4, when the electric field forming type stirring module 300 having such a structure is described in detail, in a state in which a pair of electric field forming units 310a and 310b are spaced apart from each other, a pair of electric field forming units 310a, 310b) is negatively charged by a power supply unit (not shown), and the other 310b of the pair of electric field forming units 310a and 310b is positively charged to form an electric field. .

In the thus formed electric field, a portion (A) of nanoparticles partially positively charged by the van der Waals force due to the intrinsic properties of the material moves toward the negatively charged electrode 312a, and becomes negatively charged. Part B of the charged nanoparticles moves toward the positively charged electrode 312b.

That is, by moving the nanoparticles in the horizontal direction between a pair of electrodes through the electric field effect, the ink is stirred so that the nanoparticles do not agglomerate and maintain a uniformly dispersed state.

At this time, the pair of electric field forming units 310a and 310b are repeatedly charged by crossing each other with a negative electrode and a positive electrode by a power supply unit (not shown). and negatively charged nanoparticles can be prevented from being precipitated by moving only in one direction, and the nanoparticles can be moved more actively by a change in the periodic movement direction, so that the nanoparticles do not agglomerate and uniformly It is possible to maintain a distributed state.

On the other hand, the ultrasonic vibration-type stirring module 500 is spaced apart from the electric field-forming stirring module 300 in the reservoir body 10, and serves to agitate the ink by generating ultrasonic vibrations to move the nanoparticles.

It serves to supply power.

The above-described electric field-forming stirring module 300 induces the nanoparticles to move in the horizontal direction, but the ultrasonic vibration-type stirring module 500 induces the nanoparticles to move in the vertical direction, so as not to agglomerate with each other and uniformly to remain dispersed.

That is, by generating ultrasonic vibration at the bottom of the ink and transmitting the vibration to the ink, as shown in detail in FIG. 5 , convection of the ink is generated along the direction of the arrow, so that the nanoparticles are agglomerated by the aggregation phenomenon. It is possible to move the nanoparticles that are precipitated by increasing the weight in an upward direction, and further, by moving along the convection of the ink inside the reservoir body 10, the nanoparticles do not agglomerate and maintain a uniformly dispersed state. .

In particular, by simultaneously providing the above-described electric field-forming stirring module 300 and ultrasonic vibrating stirring module 500, the effect can be further increased because the ink can be stirred simultaneously in the horizontal and vertical directions in two ways. .

On the other hand, the ink flow reduction module 700 is disposed inside the reservoir body 10, and serves to reduce the flow of ink generated by the movement of the reservoir body 10 and agitation of the ink.

As described above, when the ink is stirred by the electric field-forming stirring module 300 and the ultrasonic vibration-type stirring module 500 described above, the ink flow phenomenon is less than the method of stirring using a conventional magnetic stirrer or a pump. Although it is much less, the flow of ink may occur to some extent, so by providing the ink flow reduction module 700 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the flow of ink is reduced to affect the negative pressure state applied inside the reservoir. giving can be minimized.

Furthermore, while the print operation is in progress, the reservoir body 10 also moves along with the moving inkjet head unit. By providing the ink flow reduction module 700 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the reservoir body ( The flow of ink generated by the movement of 10) can also be effectively reduced.

The size and number of the barrier rib structures 711 may be changed according to the size and the amount of ink to be stored, and depending on what distance the lower end of the barrier rib structure 711 is advantageous to flow reduction from the water surface of the ink. The distance may change.

By including the barrier rib structure 711 having such a structure, the water surface of the ink is partitioned into a plurality of small ink units corresponding to the area of the barrier rib structure 711 , and the flow of each ink unit is only inside the barrier rib structure 711 . Therefore, it is possible to effectively reduce the flow of the entire ink.

In addition, the baffle 710 is arranged to float on the water surface of the ink, thereby effectively responding to the flow of ink generated by the movement of the reservoir body 10 and reducing the flow of ink.

That is, since the plurality of shaking damping tails 730 are coupled to the lower end of the baffle 710 and hold the center of gravity, the baffle 710 disposed to float on the water surface of the ink is turned over or rotated. This can be prevented, and the center of gravity is maintained so that the barrier rib structure 711 of the baffle 710 can effectively oppose the flow of ink.

The position and number of these shaking damping tails 730 may be changed depending on the size of the agitated ink reservoir and the amount of ink to be stored, and as shown in FIG. 6 , the shaking damping tails ( 730) as well as a shake damping tail having a plate shape may be provided.
