Abstract

An optical irradiation section (2) irradiates an end face of a light-guide sheet (6) with light. A photodetection section (3) receives the light transmitted through the light-guide sheet (6) and detects an X value and a luminance value. A first evaluation section (421) of an evaluation section (42) evaluates whether or not a Y1 value corresponding to the X value detected by the photodetection section (3) exceeds a prescribed threshold value, based on a correlation (a) stored in a first storage section (411). A second evaluation section (422)evaluates whether or not the total light transmittance corresponding to the luminance valuedetected by the photodetection section (3) is less than a prescribed threshold value, based on a correlation (ss) stored in a second storage section (412). If it is evaluated that the Y1 value exceeds the prescribed threshold value, an output section (43) outputs a signal indicating that yellow is present to an excessive degree. If it is evaluated that the total light transmittance is less than the prescribed threshold value, the output section (43) outputs a signal indicating a drop in transparency.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The problem to be solved by the invention however is that the light guide plate sometimes penetrates the yellow band of the light band, that is, the value of γι (yellow index) increases. A liquid crystal display constructed using such a light guide plate cannot obtain a high quality image due to a yellow hue of the image. Further, when the transparency of the light guide plate is lowered, the transmittance of light penetrating the light guide plate is lowered to lower the brightness of the image. Therefore, it is necessary to perform inspection of the light guide plate with excessive yellow adjustment and the light guide plate with reduced transparency as a defective product.

The second memory unit 4 preliminarily acquires the X value in the χγ color space of the penetrating light passing through the sheet 6 for the light guide plate, and the yellow color of the sheet 6 for the light guide plate measured by the spectrophotometer. Number of (ΥΙ) values The relationship α (for example, refer to FIG. 2) and is memorized (i 162426.doc 13 201243310 acquisition step). The second storage unit 412 obtains the brightness value of the transmitted light penetrating the light guide sheet 6 in advance, and The correlation curve β (see, for example, Fig. 3) of the total light transmittance of the sheet 6 for a light guide plate measured by a spectrophotometer is memorized (second acquisition step). The X value of the transmitted light and the sheet 62 for the light guide plate ΥΙ The correlation between the value α and the luminance value of the transmitted light and the total light transmittance of the sheet 6 for the light guide plate can be based on the type of the transparent resin constituting the sheet 6 for the light guide plate and the sheet for the light guide plate. The length, thickness, and the like of the material 6 in the width direction are appropriately changed. Here, the ΥΙ value and total light transmittance of the sheet 6 for the light guide plate can be obtained by measuring the light transmittance of each wavelength every 5 nm in a range of wavelengths of 380 to 780 nm by a spectrophotometer. The measurement result was calculated. The determination unit 42 includes a first determination unit 42A and a second determination unit 422. The first determination unit 421 determines whether or not the yellow index value corresponding to the threshold detected by the light receiving unit 3 exceeds the specific threshold S based on the correlation α stored in the i-th storage unit 4 u (first determination) The threshold value s is a sign indicating whether or not the sheet 6 for the light guide plate is excessively yellowed. When the yellow index value is larger than the interval value S|, the sheet #6 for the light plate is judged to be excessively twisted. The portion 422 determines whether or not the total light transmittance corresponding to the luminance value detected by the light receiving unit 3 has not reached the specific threshold S2 based on the correlation β stored in the second storage unit 412 (second determination step). The value Μ indicates whether the transparency of the sheet 6 for the light guide plate is lowered. When the total light transmittance is lower than the threshold S 2 , the sheet 6 for the light guide plate is judged to be transparent. The output unit 43 outputs a portion of the determination result of the 丨 macro/printer 42 42, which is determined by the 162426.doc 201243310 H421 as the yellow index value exceeds a specific threshold S, and the output indicates The sheet 6 for the light plate is excessively yellowed with the difference of m, and the output portion 43 The second determination unit determines that the total light transmittance does not reach a specific threshold, and outputs an abnormality signal indicating that the light guide (4) of the sheet 6 is lowered (output step). For example, the output unit 43 is output. A mechanism for emitting an alarm sound as an exclusive-f signal and a mechanism for displaying a message such as "a sheet for detecting a light guide plate having an excessively yellowish color and having reduced transparency" as an abnormal signal may be used. The output unit 43 is configured as the inspection device configured as described above. When it is determined that the magic value exceeds the characteristic (4) S, or when it is determined that the total light transmittance is not up to the specific threshold s2t, the abnormal signal indicating that the sheet 6 for the light guide plate is excessively yellow-colored or An abnormal signal indicating that the transparency of the sheet 6 for the light guide plate is lowered. Therefore, the yellow tone and transparency of the sheet 6 for the light guide plate can be automatically checked based on the X value and the brightness value of the light transmitted from the sheet 6 for the light guide plate. In this way, the sheet 6 for the light guide plate can be effectively inspected according to the inspection package £1. The sheet 6 for the light guide plate which has been inspected by the inspection device 1 is conveyed by the conveyance device 5 in comparison with The inspection apparatus 1 is further cut into a rectangular plate shape of a specific size on the downstream side in the conveyance direction r (side cut processing for aligning the width dimensions and cross-cut processing for aligning the length dimensions) (cutting step). Further, After the end faces (edges) are machined into a specific shape, the polishing process is performed by performing printing or performing surface cutting on the surface of the sheet to complete the light guide plate (acquisition step).

The output unit 43 of the first output unit 43 receives an abnormality signal, and the light guide plate for the light guide plate sheet 6 is automatically removed by the light guide plate which is determined to be excessively yellowish or reduced in transparency. In the inspection apparatus i, if the transparent resin sheet is used as the transparent resin sheet, the above inspection can be performed. Therefore, the above-described inspection can be performed not only on the sheet 6 for a light guide plate but also on a light guide plate which is a transparent resin sheet.

The first determination unit 421 of the judgment bucket 42 determines whether or not the γι value corresponding to the X value detected by the light receiving unit 3 exceeds a specific value based on the correlation α stored in the first storage unit 411 in advance 162426.doc 201243310. The second determination unit 422 of the threshold value determination unit 42 does not function. When the output unit 43 determines that the YI value exceeds the specific threshold value Si, the output unit 43 outputs a signal indicating that the sheet 6 for the light guide plate is excessively yellow-colored. When the inspection apparatus 1 is generally configured, the degree of yellowness of the sheet 6 for the light guide plate can be automatically checked based on the X value of the light transmitted from the sheet 6 for the light guide plate, whereby the light guide plate can be effectively inspected. The sheet 6 is described. The inspection apparatus 1 is configured to inspect the transparency of the sheet 6 for the light guide plate. The light irradiation unit 2 is the end surface of the sheet 6 for the light guide plate conveyed by the conveyance device 5. Irradiation light. The light receiving unit 3 receives the sheet for penetrating the light guide plate 6 passes the light and detects the brightness value of the received transmitted light. The second memory unit 412 of the memory unit 41 pre-stores the brightness value of the transmitted light passing through the sheet 6 for the light guide plate and the total light penetration. The correlation of the rate β ^ The memory unit 4H of the memory unit 41 does not function. The second determination unit 422 of the determination unit 42 is based on the correlation relationship β stored in the second memory unit 412 in advance, and the light is received by the light. Whether or not the total light transmittance corresponding to the luminance value detected by the unit 3 does not reach the first teaching unit 421 of the specific value determining unit 42 does not function. Further, the output material is determined to be that the total light transmittance is not up to the specific value. In the case of the cabinet material, the signal indicating the decrease in the transparency of the sheet 6 for the light guide plate is output. When the inspection device is configured as described above, the brightness value of the transmitted light from the sheet 6 for the sheet can be used. The degree of transparency of the sheet for the light guide plate (2) is automatically checked, whereby the sheet 6 for the light guide plate used can be effectively inspected.
