The panel holding portion 11a is held by vacuum suction on the upper surface of the liquid crystal panel P transported at the end position of the upstream process, and simultaneously transports the liquid crystal panel P to the starting position of the bonding process (upstream side conveyor 6) in a horizontal state. This position is desorbed, and the liquid crystal panel P is moved to the upstream side conveyor 6.

When the liquid crystal panel P held by the panel holding portion 11a is placed on the upstream conveyor 6, for example, the calibration camera 11b captures a calibration mark or a front end shape of the liquid crystal panel P. The photographing data of the calibration camera 11b is transmitted to the control unit 20, and based on the photographed data, the control unit 20 operates the panel holding portion 11a. Thereby, the calibration of the liquid crystal panel P with respect to the upstream side conveyor 6 is performed. At this time, the position of the liquid crystal panel P of the upstream conveyor 6 in the horizontal direction (the conveyor width direction) in the vertical conveyance direction is determined, and the liquid crystal panel P of the upstream conveyor 6 is determined to rotate in the direction around the vertical axis. position.

(First Dust Collecting Device) The first dust collecting device 12 is close to the bonding position of the first bonding device 13 and is provided on the panel transport upstream side of the first bonding device 13. The first dust collecting device 12 removes and collects static electricity from the lower surface of the liquid crystal panel P that has just been introduced to the bonding position.

(First Bonding Apparatus) The first bonding apparatus 13 has a conveying apparatus 22 that winds the first optical component layer F1 from the winding drum R1 around which the first optical component layer F1 is wound, and along the first optical component The first optical component layer F1 is transported in the longitudinal direction of the layer F1, and the nip roller 23 is attached to the optical component separated from the first optical component layer F1 by the transport device 22 to the liquid crystal panel P transported by the upstream conveyor 6. The underside.

In the present embodiment, the first optical component layer F1 has a structure corresponding to the width of the width of the liquid crystal panel P. The "width having a width corresponding to the width of the liquid crystal panel P" means a layer of the laminated layer obtained by half-cutting the first optical component layer F1 in the width direction of the layer, which is larger than the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P, and the layer thereof The sheet is smaller than the substrate of the liquid crystal panel P to which it is bonded (the size of the functional portion such as the electronic component mounting portion is removed from the substrate).

Specifically, the width (length in the short-side direction) of the first optical component layer F1 is the same as or wider than the long side of the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P, and the layer is in the substrate of the liquid crystal panel P to which it is attached. The sides corresponding to the long sides of the display area P4 are the same or narrower. The first bonding device 13 has the bonding layer F5 of the first optical component layer F1 being the same as or shorter than the short side of the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P, and the layer is in the substrate of the liquid crystal panel P to which it is attached. The side corresponding to the short side of the display region P4 is cut at the same or shorter length to form a layer of the bonding layer F5, and is cut into a specific size to be bonded to the lower side surface of the liquid crystal panel P which is introduced to the bonding position. The lamination of the layer of layer F5.

The "layer sheet of the bonding layer F5" produced in the first bonding apparatus 13 is an optical component that is bonded to the liquid crystal panel P. The peripheral portion of the optical module produced as described above is a size that accommodates the frame portion G when the liquid crystal panel P is placed.

The conveying device 22 is a device that conveys the bonding layer F5 that carries the separation layer sheet F3a. The conveying device 22 has a roller holding portion 22a, and holds a roll drum R1 wound with a strip-shaped first optical component layer F1, and winds out the first optical component layer F1 along the longitudinal direction of the first optical component layer F1; The plurality of guide rollers 22b wind the first optical component layer F1 to guide the first optical component layer F1 wound from the roll drum R1 along a specific transport path; the cutting device 22c, on the transport path An optical component layer F1 is half-cut; the blade 22d winds the first optical component layer F1 after the half-cut, at an acute angle, and the optical component is peeled off from the separation layer F3a, and the optical component is supplied to the sticker. And the winding portion 22e holds the separation roller R2 of the separation layer F3a which is wound by the blade 22d.

In the present embodiment, the "semi-cut" means that the tension in the first optical component layer F1 is not broken or broken, and the specific thickness separation layer F3a remains. An optical component layer F1 is cut into the vicinity of the interface between the adhesive layer F2a and the separation layer F3a. For the formation of the cut-in, a cutting blade or a laser device can be used.

The winding holding portion 22a located at the starting point of the conveying device 22 and the winding portion 22e located at the end position of the conveying device 22 are, for example, driven in synchronization with each other. Thereby, the roller holding portion 22a winds up the first optical component layer F1 toward the conveyance direction of the first optical component layer F1, and the winding portion 22e winds up the separation layer F3a that has passed through the blade 22d. In the conveyance device 22, the upstream side in the conveyance direction of the first optical module layer F1 (separation layer sheet F3a) is referred to as the layer conveyance upstream side, and the downstream side in the conveyance direction is referred to as the sheet conveyance downstream side.

Each of the guide rollers 22b changes the direction in which the first optical component layer F1 is conveyed along the transport path. At least a portion of the plurality of guide rollers 22b is movable to adjust the tension of the first optical component layer F1 during transport.

When the first optical component layer F1 is wound up by a specific length, the cutting device 22c traverses the entire width along the width direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the first optical component layer F1, and cuts the thickness direction of the first optical component layer F1. Part of it (half cut).

The cutting device 22c transmits the tension in the first optical component layer F1, and does not cause the first optical component layer F1 (the separation layer F3a) to be broken or broken (the separation layer F3a having a specific thickness remains). The position of the advance and retraction of the blade is cut, and half cut is performed until the vicinity of the interface between the adhesive layer F2a and the separation layer F3a.

In the half-cut first optical component layer F1, the bonding layer F5 is cut in the thickness direction of the first optical component layer F1 to form a transverse line across the entire width of the first optical component layer F1 in the width direction. The transverse line is formed in parallel in the longitudinal direction of the strip-shaped first optical component layer F1. For example, in the case of a bonding process of transporting the liquid crystal panel P of the same size, a plurality of transverse lines are formed at equal intervals in the longitudinal direction of the first optical component layer F1. The first optical component layer F1 is divided into a plurality of sections in the longitudinal direction by a plurality of transverse lines. In the longitudinal direction of the first optical component layer F1, the partitions sandwiched by the adjacent pair of transverse lines are each one of the plies F5.

The blade edge 22d is disposed below the upstream side conveyor 6, and extends at least to the entire width thereof in the width direction of the first optical component layer F1. At the blade edge 22d, the first optical component layer F1 is wound to fold the separation layer F3a of the first optical component layer F1 after the half cut.

The blade 22d has a first surface, and is disposed from a width direction of the first optical unit F1 (a width direction of the upstream side conveyor 6), and a lying posture (that is, a specific angle with respect to a conveying direction of the liquid crystal panel P); The second surface is disposed at an acute angle from the first surface of the first optical component layer F1 as viewed from the width direction of the first optical component layer F1; and the front end portion is located at the intersection of the first surface and the second surface.

The blade 22d winds the first optical component layer F1 at an acute angle to the front end portion of the blade 22d. When the first optical component layer F1 is folded back at an acute angle at the front end portion of the blade 22d, the layer (optical component) of the bonding layer F5 is separated from the separation layer F3. The front end portion of the blade 22d is provided close to the panel conveyance upstream side of the nip roller 23. The optical component separated from the separation layer F3 by the blade 22d is superposed on the lower surface of the liquid crystal panel P conveyed by the upstream conveyor 6, and is introduced between the pair of bonding rollers 23a of the nip roller 23.

The nip roller 23 has a pair of bonding rollers 23a which are disposed in parallel with each other in the axial direction. A specific gap is formed between the pair of bonding rolls 23a, and the gap is the bonding position of the first bonding apparatus 13. The liquid crystal panel P and the optical component are superposed into the gap. The liquid crystal panel P and the optical unit are pinched between the pair of bonding rolls 23a, and sent to the downstream side of the panel conveyance. Thereby, the optical component is integrally bonded to the lower side of the liquid crystal panel P. Hereinafter, the bonded panel is referred to as a single-sided bonding panel P11 (optical component bonding body).

The first deviation inspection device 14 has a pair of cameras 14a, for example, the edge of the optical assembly on the upstream side of the panel transporting single-sided bonding panel P11, and the edge of the optical assembly in the downstream side of the panel transporting single-sided bonding panel P11. . The photographing data of each camera 14a is transmitted to the control unit 20, and based on the photographing data, it is judged whether or not the relative positions of the optical unit and the liquid crystal panel P are correct. The single-sided bonding panel P11, which is judged to be inaccurate in the relative position, is discharged to the outside of the system (outside the manufacturing line) by a discharge unit not shown.

The reverse arm 15b holds the single-sided bonding panel P11 that has reached the end position of the upstream conveyor 6 through the first deviation inspection device 14 by suction, clamping, or the like, and is rotated by 180° around the rotation shaft 15a. Thereby, the inversion arm 15b reverses the front and back of the single-sided bonding panel P11, and converts the direction of the single-sided bonding panel P11 conveyed in parallel with the short side of the display area P4 to the length of the display area P4, for example. We transport in parallel.

The above-described inversion is performed when the direction of the polarization axis of the optical module F1X bonded to the surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the direction of the polarization axis of the optical module F1X bonded to the opposite surface of the liquid crystal panel P are perpendicular to each other. The upstream side conveyor 6 and the downstream side conveyor 7 simultaneously serve as the conveying direction of the liquid crystal panel P from the right side to the left side of the drawing, and after passing through the first reversing device 15, the upstream side conveyor 6 and the downstream side conveyor 7 A specific amount of displacement horizontally.

Further, in the case where the liquid crystal panel P is reversed in the forward and reverse directions, it is preferable to use a rotating shaft having, for example, a direction parallel to the conveying direction and an inverting device having an inverting arm. In this case, when the layer conveyance direction of the first bonding apparatus 13 and the layer direction of the second bonding apparatus 17 are horizontally disposed perpendicular to each other, the optical component F1X perpendicular to the polarization axis direction can be bonded to the liquid crystal panel. The front side of P and the reverse side of liquid crystal panel P.

Specifically, the width (length in the short-side direction) of the second optical component layer F2 is the same as or wider than the short side of the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P, and the layer is in the substrate of the liquid crystal panel P to which it is attached. The sides of the short side of the display area P4 are the same or narrower. The second bonding device 17 has the bonding layer F5 of the second optical component layer F2 being the same as or longer than the long side of the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P, and the layer is in the substrate of the liquid crystal panel P to which it is attached.

The gap between the pair of bonding rollers 23a of the nip roller 23 (the bonding position of the second bonding device 17) is introduced in a state in which the single-sided bonding panel P11 and the optical component are overlapped, and the optical component is integrally attached to the single sheet. The lower side of the panel P11 is fitted to the surface. Hereinafter, the bonded panel is referred to as a double-sided bonding panel P12 (optical component bonding body).

The second deviation inspection device 18 checks whether the position of the liquid crystal panel P of the optical component to which the second bonding device 17 is bonded in the double-sided bonding panel P12 is correct (whether the positional deviation is within the tolerance range). The second deviation inspection device 18 has a pair of cameras 18a, for example, the edge of the optical assembly on the upstream side of the panel transporting the double-sided bonding panel P12 and the edge of the optical assembly in the downstream side of the panel transporting side of the double-sided bonding panel P12 . The photographing data of each camera 18a is transmitted to the control unit 20, and based on the photographed data, it is judged whether or not the relative positions of the optical unit and the liquid crystal panel P are correct. The double-sided bonding panel P12, which is judged to be inaccurate in the relative position, is discharged to the outside of the system by a discharge unit not shown.

(Second Inverting Device) The second inverting device 19 forwards and reverses the liquid crystal panel P (double-sided bonding panel P12) that has passed through the first inverting device 15 with the backlight side facing upward, and moves into the film bonding system 1. In the same time, the display surface side of the liquid crystal panel P faces upward.

(Defect Inspection Device) The defect inspection device 21 is an automatic inspection device that performs AOI inspection (Automatic Optical Inspection) on the double-sided bonding panel P12 with the display surface side facing upward through the second inversion device 19. In the present embodiment, the defect inspection device 21 is photographed by the camera 21a from the upper side (display surface side) while illuminating from the lower side (backlight side) of the double-sided bonding panel P12, and automatically checks the double based on the photographed data. The presence or absence of defects in the face panel P12. As the defect inspection device 21, a structure capable of optically and automatically inspecting defects can be used in addition to the configuration shown in this embodiment.

In the method of manufacturing the optical module bonded body of the present embodiment, the "defect" to be inspected means that the optical inspection can be performed on the display area of the double-sided bonding panel P12, and the double-sided bonding panel P12 is used. In the manufactured display device, display failure is caused.

As such defects, for example, (1) defects of the liquid crystal panel P itself, (2) defects of the optical component itself, and (3) defects caused by the bonding faces of the liquid crystal panel P and the optical component

As the "(1) defect of the liquid crystal panel P itself", for example, the liquid crystal of the liquid crystal panel P is unaligned due to the disorder of the liquid crystal alignment film of the liquid crystal panel P. In the case where the liquid crystal panel P has such a defect, for example, even if a pair of polarizing plates are correctly orthogonally polarized, the liquid crystal panel P is designed as a black liquid crystal screen (NB), as long as the double-sided bonding panel P12 is used. One side of the light is irradiated, because light leakage occurs, and the defect as a bright spot can be confirmed. In the visual inspection, light is irradiated from the first surface side of the double-sided bonding panel P12, and the inspector judges the presence or absence of a bright spot from the second surface side of the double-sided bonding panel P12. Further, for example, even when the liquid crystal panel P is damaged during transportation, it is a defect of (1) the liquid crystal panel P itself.

The "(2) defects of the optical component itself" are, for example, deformed by scratches or depressions formed on the surface of the optical component F1X. If there is such a defect, the light beam set by the liquid crystal panel P may be bent or scattered in the deformed portion, and the other portion having no distortion may be different from the luminance, so that the difference in luminance can be used for inspection.

As a result of "(3) a defect occurring in the bonding surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the optical component", for example, dust or dust is caught on the bonding surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the optical component (hereinafter, collectively referred to as "foreign matter" Defects, or defects in which air is trapped on the mating surface to form bubbles. The bonding surface is a bonding surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the first optical component F11 shown in FIG. 4, and a bonding surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the second optical component F12. If there is such a defect, the light beam which is set by the liquid crystal panel P is bent or scattered in the defective portion, and the other portion having no distortion is different from the luminance, so that the difference in luminance can be used for inspection.

Since the defect inspection device 21 is provided on the downstream conveyor 7, the double-sided bonding panel P12 can be inspected all at once in the manufacturing line. Therefore, when a defective product is found, the production line is stopped before the production of more defective products, and the occurrence position of the defective product can be specified as soon as possible, and countermeasures against the occurrence of the defective product can be implemented.

In the inspection by the defect inspection device 21, the double-sided bonding panel P12 in which the defect is not found is conveyed to the downstream side by the downstream conveyor 7, and is carried out from the manufacturing line of the film bonding system 1.

Further, in the inspection by the defect inspection device 21, the defective product found to be defective is moved to the outside of the manufacturing line, and visual inspection is performed outside the production line (outside the production line) (first visual inspection process).

(First visual inspection) In the visual inspection, the presence or absence of defects is checked for defective products. Visual inspection can be carried out by multiple inspectors.

The double-sided bonding panel P12 in which the defect is not found or the double-sided bonding panel P12 which is visually inspected and has a defect that is practically used as a defect is determined to be a defective product (that is, it is judged as not due to a false alarm) Good product) Since such a double-sided bonding panel P12 is used in the next process, it is carried out from the manufacturing line of the film bonding system 1.

In addition, in the inspection of the visual inspection, the defective product is found, and the following regeneration treatment can be performed. In the following description, the defective product that is judged by the visual inspection (first visual inspection) for defective product is referred to as "first visual inspection defective product".

(Reproduction Processing) Regarding the first visual inspection defective product, first, it is determined whether the type or state of the defect is found, and whether or not the defect can be eliminated by performing the subsequent processing. Next, in accordance with the state of the defect, either of the following two processes is selected and the process is performed.

The defect is a small deformation of the optical component itself in "(2) defects in the optical component itself, or in the liquid crystal panel P in "(3) defects occurring on the bonding surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the optical component" When the air is trapped on the bonding surface of the optical component and the air bubbles are generated as a fine object, the hot pressing process is performed, and the first visual inspection of the defective product is performed by heat and pressure treatment.

"Hot-pressing treatment" means that a defective product as a processed product is exposed to a temperature higher than room temperature in a pressurized environment having a high atmospheric pressure for a certain period of time. For example, as an example, the processing conditions are in a pressure condition of 0.294 MPa or more and 0.785 MPa or less (3 kgf/cm ² or more and 8 kgf/cm ² or less), and a temperature of 40 ° C or more and 80 ° C or less, for 30 seconds or more. Hold time below 25 minutes.

The pressure condition can be 0.392 MPa or more (4 kgf/cm ² or more) of 0.588 MPa or less (6 kgf/cm ² or less). The temperature condition can be 50 ° C or more and 70 ° C or less. The holding time can be from 1 minute to 5 minutes. The upper limit and the lower limit of the processing conditions can be combined easily. In addition, the above numerical value is an example, and is not limited to this.

Further, the "holding time" means a time until the set value of the pressure and temperature in the chamber becomes the above until the pressure and the temperature are below the set value. Therefore, even if either or both of the pressure and the temperature fluctuate, as long as the pressure and temperature are above the set value, the processing time of this condition includes the hold time.

In the case where the first visual inspection defective product has a small deformation of the optical component itself, the hot pressing treatment is performed, and the optical component is easily softened by thermal softening. In this way, it is expected to eliminate the small deformation caused by the defect.

Further, in the case where the first visual inspection defective product has a defect that bubbles are formed by sandwiching air on the bonding surface, heat and pressure are added to the layer of the optical component having the adhesive layer F2a (refer to FIG. 5). The saturated solubility of the air causes the air forming the bubbles to disappear into the layer of the adhesive layer F2a. By this, I hope to eliminate the bubbles.

Further, since the air which has disappeared from the layer of the adhesive layer F2a is diffused in the layer of the adhesive layer F2a, even if the defective product is returned to the normal temperature under atmospheric pressure after the hot pressing treatment, the position of the bubble which is expected to disappear is not repeated again. Condensing air regenerates bubbles.

Therefore, when the defect of the first visual inspection defective product is a fine object, it is judged that it is removed by the hot pressing treatment, and the defective product is subjected to the hot pressing treatment in order to eliminate the defect.

In contrast, the first visual inspection defective product has a large deformation of the optical component itself in "(2) defects in the optical component itself, or "(3) bonding of the liquid crystal panel P and the optical component. In the case where the surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the optical component are interposed with air to cause a large bubble, or when a foreign matter is caught on the bonding surface, the hot pressing treatment is considered. Can't let the defect disappear.

In this case, the rework process is performed, and the optical module P is exposed from the first visual inspection defective product, and the liquid crystal panel P is exposed, and the new liquid crystal panel P is bonded to the new liquid crystal panel P to form a new double-sided bonding panel P12.

In addition, the first visual inspection defective product has a defect such as "(1) a defect in the liquid crystal panel P itself" in the damage of the liquid crystal panel P, and when it is determined that the hot pressing process or the rework process cannot be reproduced, the first is discarded. Visual inspection of defective products.

Such a regeneration processing process is performed separately from the above-described manufacturing line (out-of-line processing). Therefore, it takes a sufficient time for each treatment, and it is expected to reduce waste.

In the double-sided bonding panel P12 subjected to the regeneration processing, the presence or absence of defects is checked in a visual inspection (second visual inspection process) separate from the above-described manufacturing line. If no defect is found, the double-sided bonding panel P12 as a finished product is carried out to the next process.

Further, the first visual inspection defective product in which the defect was found in the second visual inspection process was returned to the above-described regeneration treatment process, and the regeneration was attempted. Here, the first visual inspection defective product in which the defect is found in the second visual inspection process is referred to as "second visual inspection defective product".

(Manufacturing Method of Optical Component Bonding Body) FIG. 6 is an explanatory view showing a manufacturing method of the optical component bonding body in the present embodiment, and shows a flow chart of the above manufacturing process. Hereinafter, the manufacturing flow will be described using the symbols shown in FIG. 1 as appropriate.

In the flowchart, the processing performed in the manufacturing line is displayed by the processing indicated by the symbol S1, and the processing performed outside the manufacturing line is displayed by the processing indicated by the symbol S2.

(Optical component bonding body forming process) First, in the manufacture of the double-sided bonding panel P12, the liquid crystal panel P is carried in the manufacturing line (step S11), and the dust or dust adhering to the surface of the liquid crystal panel P is cleaned and contaminated. (Step S12).

Next, in the film bonding system 1 described above, the first optical component layer F1 and the second optical component layer F2 are each wound from the roll drum R1, and the first optical component layer F1 and the second optical component layer F2 are respectively associated with each other. The length of the long side or the short side of the display area P4 is cut to form the first optical component F11 and the second optical component F12. Here, "the length of the long side or the short side of the corresponding display area P4 is cut" means that the size of the layer obtained by cutting is larger than the display area P4 of the liquid crystal panel P, and the layer is smaller than the laminated layer. The substrate of the optical display member (the size of the functional portion such as the electronic component mounting portion is removed from the substrate) is cut to a length longer than the long side of the display region P4 or the short side of the display region P4, and is smaller than the laminate of the layer The length of the long side of the display area P4 of the substrate of the liquid crystal panel P is smaller than the length of the short side of the corresponding display area P4 of the substrate of the liquid crystal panel P to which the layer is bonded.

Then, the first optical component F11 is attached to the first surface of the liquid crystal panel P, and the second optical component F12 is attached to the second surface of the liquid crystal panel P to form the double-sided bonding panel P12 (step S13).

(Automatic Inspection Process) Then, in the obtained double-sided bonding panel P12, the defect inspection device 21 provided in the manufacturing line (in the production line) is used for defect inspection (step S14). In step S14 of the present embodiment, the defect inspection device 21 as the automatic inspection device optically automatically inspects the defect of the double-sided bonding panel P12 (optical component bonding body) (automatic inspection process). In the present embodiment, the optical component bonding body forming process and the automatic inspection process are performed on a continuous manufacturing line. In other words, the optical component bonding body forming process and the automatic inspection process are performed on the same manufacturing line. In other words, the optical component bonding body forming process and the automatic inspection process are performed in the manufacturing line (in the production line).

As a result of the automatic inspection, for example, the double-sided bonding panel P12 that is determined to be a good product collects a plurality of sheets and then moves out to the next process (step S15).

(First visual inspection process) On the other hand, as a result of the automatic inspection, the double-sided bonding panel P12 of the defective product (defective product) determined to have defects is defective in the production line (outside the production line). Visual inspection (step S21).

As a result of the visual inspection, the double-sided bonding panel P12 judged to be good is carried out toward the next process.

(Reproduction Process) On the other hand, as a result of the visual inspection, the type and state of the defect found are confirmed on the double-sided bonding panel P12 of the defective product (the first visual inspection defective product) determined to have a defect. By performing the subsequent processing, it is judged whether or not the defect can be eliminated (step S22).

The first visual inspection of the defect of the defective product is a small deformation of the optical component itself, or when air is trapped in the bonding surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the optical component to generate a bubble as a fine object (in the flowchart, the defect is marked. Small"), the hot pressing process is performed (step S23).

On the other hand, the defect of the first visual inspection defective product is a large deformation of the optical component itself, or a case where air bubbles are trapped in the bonding surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the optical component to generate a large bubble (in the flowchart mark) In the case of "defective", the rework processing is carried out (step S24).

In the case where the defect of the first visual inspection defective product is damage of the liquid crystal panel P or the like, and it is determined that the hot pressing treatment or the rework processing cannot be reproduced (in the flowchart, the defect is "large"), Discard.

Next, the double-sided bonding panel P12 subjected to the hot press processing or the rework processing is subjected to visual inspection of the defect (second visual inspection process, step S25).

If no defect is found, the double-sided bonding panel P12 as a finished product is carried out to the next process. When the defect is found as a defective product (second visual inspection defective product), the process returns to step S22 again, and the regeneration process is again performed to try regeneration. The method for producing the optical component bonded body of the present embodiment is carried out as described above.

According to the above manufacturing method of the optical component bonding body, the optical component bonding body conveyed on the production line is sequentially inspected by the automatic inspection device. Since the manufactured product is inspected in order on the manufacturing line, the occurrence of the defective product can be detected in a short time from the occurrence of the defective product. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of defective products and increase the production yield.

Further, in the method of manufacturing an optical module bonding body according to the present embodiment, a defective product in which a defect is detected by an automatic inspection device on a manufacturing line is visually inspected in a manufacturing line. The commercially available optical automatic inspection device has a possibility of overkill, and the optical component assembly which is determined to be defective by automatic inspection includes a good product which is determined to have no problem in practical use. On the other hand, by repeating the visual inspection, the possibility of misjudgment is small, and the accuracy of the defect inspection is maintained at an appropriate level depending on the actual use.

Further, because of the visual inspection on the manufacturing line, only the object determined to be defective by the automatic inspection is used as the inspection target, and the inspector required for the visual inspection can be reduced as compared with the case where all inspections are performed by visual inspection.

Further, by detecting the good product from the article determined to be defective by visual inspection, the number of defective products can be reduced. Therefore, the manufacturing yield is increased.

According to the method for producing an optical component bonded body of the present embodiment, a method of manufacturing an optical component bonded body can be provided, and the defect can be detected with good accuracy in actual use, and can be stably manufactured without impairing the manufacturing yield.

Further, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. For example, in the above embodiment, when the polarizing film is bonded to the liquid crystal panel, the optical display member to which the optical module is attached is not limited to the liquid crystal panel, and may be an organic electroluminescence (OEL) panel. The attached optical component is not limited to the polarizing film, and may be an antireflection film, a light diffusion film, or the like.

Further, in the present embodiment, the automatic inspection is performed after the optical component is bonded to both sides of the liquid crystal panel P, but the automatic inspection may be performed after the optical component is bonded to one surface.

Further, in the present embodiment, the second visual inspection defective product detected by the second visual inspection process is subjected to the regeneration processing process again, and after a plurality of regeneration processing processes, the thermal process is subjected to a plurality of thermal processes, and the optical component is easily attached. The quality of the product is degraded, so that the second visual inspection defective product detected by the second visual inspection process can be discarded.

However, from the viewpoint of improvement in production, it is preferable that the amount of waste is less. For example, the upper limit value of the regeneration process can be set in advance, and the defective product of the set number of regeneration processes is used as the most Good to discard.

[Second Embodiment] Fig. 7 is an explanatory view showing a production system of another optical component bonding body for carrying out the method for manufacturing an optical module bonding body according to the present embodiment. Fig. 7 is a schematic configuration diagram of a film bonding system 2 constituting a part of a production system of an optical component bonding body, which corresponds to Fig. 1 . In Fig. 7, the film bonding system 2 is divided into upper and lower sections for convenience of illustration. In the following description, the same components as those described above will be omitted.

In the film bonding system 2 shown in FIG. 7, the width (length in the width direction) of the strip-shaped first optical component layer F1 is wider than the long side of the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P. Further, the width (length in the width direction) of the strip-shaped second optical component layer F2 is wider than the short side of the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P.

In such a film bonding system 2, the bonding layer F5 of the strip-shaped first optical component layer F1 is cut out at a shorter length than the short side of the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P to fabricate the first layer F1m. It is bonded to the liquid crystal panel P in the conveyance of the liquid crystal panel P using the roller conveyor 5. Similarly, the bonding layer F5 of the strip-shaped second optical component layer F2 is cut out at a length longer than the long side of the display region of the liquid crystal panel P to form the second layer F2m, which is used in the roller conveyor 5. The liquid crystal panel P is bonded to the liquid crystal panel P during conveyance. As described below, the first layer F1m and the second layer F2m are collectively referred to as "layer FXm".

Then, when bonded to the liquid crystal panel P, the first optical module F11 is formed by cutting the remaining portion of the first layer sheet F1m located outside the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P from the first layer sheet F1m. Further, when bonded to the liquid crystal panel P, the second optical module F12 is formed by cutting the remaining portion of the second layer sheet F2m located outside the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P from the second layer sheet F2m. Each part of the film bonding system 2 is integrally controlled by a control unit not shown.

The film bonding system 2 includes a first adsorption device 11 that adsorbs the liquid crystal panel P that has been transported to the delivery end of the front-end process, and transports it to the loading end of the upstream conveyor 6 to perform calibration of the liquid crystal panel P (position determination) The first dust collecting device 12 is disposed on the panel transport downstream side of the first suction device 11; the first bonding device 13 is disposed on the panel transport downstream side of the first dust collecting device 12; and the first inverting device 31A, The first cutting device 32A is disposed on the panel transport downstream side of the first reversing device 31A, and the recovery device (not shown) is disposed on the first cutting device. The panel of 32A conveys the first recovery position 33A on the downstream side; and the first rotating device 34 is disposed on the downstream side of the panel transport of the recovery device.

Further, on the downstream side of the panel conveyance of the second rotating device 35, the defect inspection device 21 is provided in the optical component bonding body in which the optical components are bonded to both surfaces of the liquid crystal panel P, and the defect inspection is performed.

Further, as will be described later in detail, on the panel transport upstream side of the first cutting device 32A, a detection device for setting the cutting position in the first cutting device 32A is set. On the panel transport upstream side of the second cutting device 32B, the setting detecting means sets the cutting position in the second cutting device 32B.

(First Bonding Device) The first bonding device 13 is a layer (first layer sheet F1m) of the bonding layer F5 that is cut to a specific size with respect to the lower surface of the liquid crystal panel P that is introduced to the bonding position. fit.

The first bonding apparatus 13 has a conveying device 22 that winds the first optical component layer F1 from the winding roller R1 around which the first optical component layer F1 is wound, and conveys it along the longitudinal direction of the first optical component layer F1. The first optical component layer F1 and the nip roller 23 are bonded to the lower surface of the liquid crystal panel P transported by the upstream conveyor 6 by the first layer sheet F1m separated from the first optical unit layer F1 by the transport device 22.

The conveying device 22 is a device that conveys the bonding layer F5 that carries the separation layer sheet F3a. The conveying device 22 has a drum holding portion 22a, a plurality of guide rollers 22b, a cutting device 22c that applies a half cut to the first optical component layer F1 on the transport path, and a blade 22d that applies a half-cut first optical component. The layer F1 is wound at an acute angle to peel the first layer sheet F1m from the separation layer sheet F3a, and the first layer sheet F1m is supplied to the bonding position; and the winding portion 22e.

The first optical component layer F1 is in a horizontal direction (ply width direction) perpendicular to the conveyance direction of the first optical component layer F1, and has a width wider than the width of the liquid crystal panel P in plan view.

The cutting device 22c winds out the length of the display region P4 (the length of the long side of the display region P4 and the short side of the display region P4) in the longitudinal direction perpendicular to the layer width direction of the first optical module layer F1. In the present embodiment, when the length of the short side of the display region P4 is long, the entire width is traversed along the width direction of the layer, and the first optical component layer F1 is half-cut. Thereby, since the first optical component layer F1 has the bonding layer F5, the first layer sheet F1m larger than the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P is formed.

In the first optical component layer F1 after the half-cut, the optical module body F1a and the surface protective film F4a are cut at least in the thickness direction of the first optical component layer F1 to form an entire width direction across the first optical component layer F1. The transverse tangent of the width. The transverse line is formed at an interval having the same length as the short side length of the display region P4 in the longitudinal direction of the strip-shaped first optical component layer F1. The first optical component layer F1 is divided into a plurality of sections in the longitudinal direction by a plurality of transverse lines. In the longitudinal direction of the first optical component layer F1, the partitions sandwiched by the adjacent pair of transverse lines are each a first layer F1m.

The first layer F1m may be larger than, for example, the liquid crystal panel P. Further, in the first layer sheet F1m, the size of the protruding portion on the outer side of the liquid crystal panel P (the size of the remaining portion of the first layer sheet F1m) is appropriately set in accordance with the size of the liquid crystal panel P. For example, when the first layer F1m is applied to a small-sized and small-sized liquid crystal panel P of 5 吋 10 ,, at one side of the first layer F1 m, one side of the first layer F1 m and the liquid crystal are The interval between the sides of one of the panels P can be set to a length ranging from 2 mm to 5 mm. In addition, the above numerical values are merely an example and are not limited thereto.

The blade edge 22d is disposed below the upstream side conveyor 6, and extends at least to the entire width thereof in the width direction of the first optical component layer F1. At the blade edge 22d, the first optical component layer F1 is wound to be folded to the separation layer sheet F3a of the first optical component layer F1 after the half cut. When the first optical component layer F1 changes the advancing direction at the front end portion of the blade edge 22d to be folded back at an acute angle, the separation layer sheet F3a is peeled off from the first layer sheet F1m. The first layer sheet F1m separated from the separation layer sheet F3 by the blade edge 22d is superposed on the lower side surface of the liquid crystal panel P conveyed by the upstream side conveyor 6, and is introduced between the pair of bonding rollers 23a of the nip roller 23. .

The nip roller 23 has a pair of bonding rollers 23a which are disposed in parallel with each other in the axial direction. A specific gap is formed between the pair of bonding rolls 23a, and the gap is the bonding position of the first bonding apparatus 13. The liquid crystal panel P and the first layer sheet F1m are superposed and introduced into the gap. The liquid crystal panel P and the first layer sheet F1m are pinched between the pair of bonding rolls 23a, and sent to the downstream side of the panel conveyance. Thereby, the first layer sheet F1m is integrally bonded to the lower side surface of the liquid crystal panel P to form the first optical component bonding body PA1 (bonding body).

(First Inverting Device) The first inverting device 31A conveys the first optical component bonding body PA1 to the cutting position of the first cutting device 32A, and inverts the first optical component bonding body PA1 at the time of transportation. The front and back surfaces of the liquid crystal panel P are transferred to the first cutting device 32A in a state in which the surface to which the first layer sheet F1m is attached.

(First cutting device) The first cutting device 32A cuts off the remaining portion provided on the outer side of the bonding surface portion corresponding to the liquid crystal panel P and the first layer sheet F1m from the first layer sheet F1m bonded to the liquid crystal panel P. The first optical component F11 (see FIG. 4) corresponding to the size of the bonding surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the first layer F1m is formed. The remaining portion of the first layer sheet F1m is cut from the first optical component bonding body PA1 by the first cutting device 32A, and the first optical component is bonded to the surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the surface of either of the reverse sides of the liquid crystal panel P. F11 to form the second optical component bonding body PA2. The structure of the first cutting device 32A will be described in detail later.

(Recovery Device) The recovery device (not shown) provided in the first recovery position 33A, for example, holds the remaining portion cut by the first cutting device 32A, and is formed by the first cutting device 32A. An optical component F11 is peeled off to recover the remaining portion. After the remaining portion is recovered, the second optical component pasting body PA2 is moved in the direction of the first rotating device 34. Further, it is preferable not to use the recovery device, and the remaining portion that is cut off is freely dropped and removed when the first cutting device 32A is cut.

(First Rotating Device) The first rotating device 34 holds the second optical component bonding body PA2 that has passed through the first cutting device 32A to the carry-out end of the upstream side conveyor 6 by suction or clamping, and rotates the second optical component bonding body. PA2 is such that the second optical component bonding body PA2 is conveyed in the longitudinal direction of the display region P4. Thereby, the polarizing axis of the polarizing film bonded to the surface of the liquid crystal panel P is perpendicular to the polarizing axis of the polarizing film bonded to the reverse surface of the liquid crystal panel P.

The first rotating device 34 has the same calibration camera 34c as the calibration camera 11b of the first adsorption device 11, and has the same calibration function as the panel holding portion 11a of the first adsorption device 11.

(Second bonding apparatus) The second bonding apparatus 17 is opposite to the lower side of the second optical component bonding body PA2 introduced to the bonding position, and the layer of the bonding layer F5 which is half cut by a specific size (second layer sheet) F2m) is fitted. The second bonding device 17 has the same conveying device 22 and nip roller 23 as the first bonding device 13 .

The cutting device 22c of the second bonding device 17 winds the second optical component layer F2 by the length of the display region P4 in the longitudinal direction perpendicular to the layer width direction using the second bonding device 17 (display region P4) When the length of either the long side and the short side of the display area P4 is longer than the length of the display area P4 in the present embodiment, the width is traversed along the entire width of the layer width direction relative to the second optical component layer. F2 is semi-cut. Thereby, since the second optical component layer F2 has the bonding layer F5, the second layer sheet F2m larger than the display region P4 of the liquid crystal panel P is formed.

In the second optical component layer F2 after the half-cut, a transverse line is formed at an interval of the same length as the length of the long side of the display region P4 in the longitudinal direction of the strip-shaped second optical component layer F2. The second optical component layer F2 is divided into a plurality of sections in the longitudinal direction by a plurality of transverse lines.

The detection of the outer periphery of such a bonding surface and the cutting of the cutting device are carried out in the following manner.

Fig. 8 is a schematic view showing the first detecting means 61 for detecting the outer periphery of the bonding surface. The first detecting device 61 included in the film bonding system 2 of the present embodiment includes an imaging device 63 that captures a bonding surface of the liquid crystal panel P and the first layer F1m in the first optical component bonding body PA1 (hereinafter referred to as The first bonding surface SA1 (bonding surface) is a screen of the outer peripheral edge ED; the illumination light source 64 is for illuminating the outer peripheral edge ED; and the control unit 65 is for storing the memory of the image captured by the imaging device 63, or according to the screen.

The photographing device 63 is inclined, and the normal line of the first bonding surface SA1 is at an angle θ (hereinafter referred to as the tilt angle θ of the photographing device 63) to the normal line of the photographing surface 63a of the photographing device 63. The photographing device 63 faces the outer peripheral edge ED with the imaging surface 63a, and photographs the outer peripheral edge ED from the side of the first optical sheet bonding body PA1 to which the first layer sheet F1m is bonded.

The inclination angle θ of the photographing device 63 is preferably set so as to reliably capture the outer periphery of the first substrate P1 constituting the first bonding surface SA1.

For example, when the height H of the imaging device 63 is 50 mm or more and 100 mm or less, the inclination angle θ of the imaging device 63 can be set to an angle in the range of 5° or more and 20° or less. However, in the case where the amount of deviation is known empirically, the height H of the photographing device 63 and the tilt angle θ of the photographing device 63 can be obtained from the amount of deviation. In the present embodiment, the height H of the imaging device 63 is set to 78 mm, and the inclination angle θ of the imaging device 63 is set to 10°. In addition, the above numerical values are merely an example and are not limited thereto.

The tilt angle θ of the photographing device 63 may also be 0°. Fig. 9 is a schematic view showing a modification of the first detecting device 61, and is an example in which the inclination angle θ of the photographing device 63 is 0°. In this case, the imaging device 63 and the illumination light source 64 may be separately provided at positions overlapping the outer peripheral edge ED along the normal direction of the first bonding surface SA1.

For example, the height H1 of the photographing device 63 can be set in a range of 50 mm or more and 320 mm or less. In addition, the above numerical values are merely an example and are not limited thereto.

The illumination light source 64 is fixed and disposed on the opposite side of the side of the first optical component bonding body PA1 to which the first layer sheet F1m is bonded.

Further, the illumination light source 64 may be provided on the side of the first optical component bonding body PA1 to which the first layer sheet F1m is bonded (that is, on the same side as the photographing device 63).

Further, as long as the illumination light emitted from the illumination light source 64 can illuminate the outer periphery ED of the imaging device 63, the optical axis of the illumination light source 64 and the normal line of the imaging surface 63a of the imaging device 63 can also intersect each other.

Fig. 10 is a plan view showing the position of the outer periphery of the bonding surface. An inspection area CA is set on the transport path of the first optical component bonding body PA1 shown in FIG. The inspection area CA is set on the liquid crystal panel P to be conveyed, and corresponds to the position of the outer periphery ED of the first bonding surface SA1.

In addition, as long as the outer periphery of the first bonding surface SA1 can be detected, the setting position of the inspection area CA is not limited to this. For example, each inspection area CA may be provided at a position corresponding to a part of each side of the first bonding surface SA1 (for example, a central portion of each side). In this case, the structure of each side (four sides) of the first bonding surface SA1 as the outer periphery is detected.

Further, the photographing device 63 and the illumination light source 64 are not limited to the configuration provided in each of the inspection regions CA, and may be configured to be movable along a movement path set by the outer periphery ED of the first bonding surface SA1. In this case, since the photographing device 63 and the illumination light source 64 are configured to detect the outer peripheral edge ED when they are located in the respective inspection areas CA, it is possible to detect the outer circumference by providing each of the photographing device 63 and the illumination light source 64. Edge ED.

The cutting position of the first layer piece F1m by the first cutting device 32A is set based on the detection result of the outer periphery ED of the first bonding surface SA1.

The size of the outer side of the liquid crystal panel P (outside of the first bonding surface SA1). Further, the setting of the cutting position is not necessarily performed by the control unit 65 of the first detecting device 61, and may be performed using another calculation means using the data of the outer periphery ED detected by the first detecting device 61.

Referring back to FIG. 7, the first cutting device 32A cuts off the corresponding first bonding surface SA1 of the first layer sheet F1m bonded to the liquid crystal panel P along the cutting position set according to the detected outer circumference ED. The portion is the same as the remaining portion on the outer side of the first bonding surface SA1, thereby cutting out the first optical component F11 corresponding to the size of the first bonding surface SA1 (refer to FIG. 4). Thereby, the second optical component bonding body PA2 to which the first optical component F11 is bonded is formed on the upper surface of the liquid crystal panel P.

In the present embodiment, in the liquid crystal panel P having a rectangular outer shape in plan view, the remaining portions are cut off by laser along the outer periphery of the liquid crystal panel P at three sides except the functional portion, which is equivalent to the function. On one side of the portion, the remaining portion is cut by laser from a position outside the outer periphery of the liquid crystal panel P toward the display region P4 side. For example, in the case where the first substrate P1 is a thin film transistor (TFT) substrate, in a side opposite to the functional portion, in addition to the functional portion, from the periphery of the liquid crystal panel P toward the display region The P4 side is offset by a certain amount of position.

Figure 11 is a schematic view showing the second detecting means 62 for detecting the outer periphery of the bonding surface.

The size of the outer side of the liquid crystal panel P (outside of the second bonding surface SA2) is protruded. Further, the setting of the cutting position is not necessarily performed by the control unit 65 of the second detecting device 62, and may be performed using another calculation means using the data of the outer periphery ED detected by the second detecting device 62.

The remaining portion is used to cut out the second optical component F12 corresponding to the size of the second bonding surface SA2 (refer to FIG. 4). Thereby, the fourth optical component bonding body PA4 to which the second optical component F12 is bonded is formed on the upper surface of the second optical component bonding body PA2.

Here, the "portion corresponding to the second bonding surface SA2" means that the display area of the liquid crystal panel P is larger than that of the liquid crystal panel P in the second layer sheet F2m (the outline shape in plan view) The small area is an area in which the functional portion such as the electronic component mounting portion is avoided in the liquid crystal panel P.

Since there is no difference in quality due to individual differences in the size of the liquid crystal panel P or the layer FXm, the frame portion around the display area can be reduced to achieve the expansion of the display area and the miniaturization of the machine.

In the above embodiment, a carbon dioxide (CO ₂ ) laser cutting machine is used as an example of the cutting device 32, but the cutting device 32 is not limited thereto. Other cutting means such as a cutting blade may be used as the cutting device 32.

The two optical components F12 are peeled off to recover the remaining portion. After the remaining portion is recovered, the fourth optical component pasting body PA4 is moved in the direction of the second rotating device 35.
