Lcd is light and thin, and has low power consumption and low operating f pressure. 13 Wei advantage, LCD has been widely used. 1326368 A liquid crystal panel is commonly used in an LCD'. Hereinafter, a method for manufacturing a liquid crystal panel will be described. - First, the patterned color filter and the common electrode are formed on the upper glass substrate, and the patterned thin film transistor (TFT) and the halogen electrode are formed on the glass substrate facing the upper glass substrate. Next, the alignment layer is formed on the upper and lower glass substrates and rubbed to provide a pretilt angle and an alignment direction to the liquid crystal molecules formed in the liquid crystal layer between the alignment layers. In order to maintain a gap between the upper and lower glass substrates, prevent the liquid crystal from leaking out, and seal the upper and lower glass substrates, the sealant is applied in a predetermined pattern to one of the upper and lower glass substrates. Subsequently, a liquid crystal layer was formed between the upper and lower glass substrates to prepare a liquid crystal panel. Here, in order to form a liquid crystal layer, a liquid crystal coating method can be used. The liquid crystal coating method is carried out by coating a liquid crystal to a space defined by a sealant on a substrate to form a liquid crystal layer, then placing the substrates together, and hardening the sealant to bond the substrate. In order to form a liquid crystal layer by this liquid crystal coating method, a liquid crystal coating apparatus is used. In the conventional LCD panel manufacturing technology, the liquid crystal layer is formed in the region of the 7 1326368 defined by the substrate sizing pattern after the adhesive pattern is formed on the substrate by using a dispenser. That is, in addition to the dispenser for forming a pattern of glue, a liquid crystal coater for forming a liquid crystal layer is required. Further, in order to form a liquid crystal layer on the substrate on which the dispenser forms a glue pattern, the substrate must be transferred from the position of the dispenser to the position of the liquid crystal coater. Therefore, the transfer of the substrate takes-transfer time, and the entire system time of the LCD panel is extended by the transfer time. Further, when the substrate is transferred from the position of the dispenser to the position of the liquid crystal coater, foreign matter may adhere to the substrate, causing defects in the LCD panel.

The liquid crystal is liquid crystal: the liquid crystal urging port discharge pressure provided by the sub-emission H 153 is discharged from the liquid crystal coating 152 to discharge the liquid crystal. The liquid crystal coating unit 151 is moved up and down by the z-axis driving unit for the liquid crystal coating unit to adjust the liquid crystal coating nozzle (5). The lower position z-axis driving unit 155 is the controller ι〇ι controlled shaft driving unit 155. It can be a linear actuator. The process of forming the glue pattern 20 and the liquid crystal layer 30 shown in Fig. 2 using the coating apparatus 100 constructed as described above will be described with reference to Figs. 1 and 5. The controller 101 moves the glue application nozzle 142 to the target position on the substrate 1 to be coated with the glue by moving the head supporting unit 130 and the glue coating head 140. Subsequently, the controller 101 moves the head supporting unit 13 rearward to the target position in the Y-axis direction, so that the glue applying head 140 also moves rearward in the γ-axis direction. Subsequently, the controller 101 controls the glue application nozzle 142 to apply glue to the substrate 1A. Since the liquid crystal coating head 150 is disposed on the head supporting unit 13 and facing the glue coating head 140, when the head supporting unit 13 moves backward in the direction of the x-axis, the liquid crystal coating head 15 is attached to the head unit. 13 〇 move. In this case, before the liquid crystal coating 150 moves, the controller (9) button liquid crystal coating nozzle 152 is moved to the right in the z-axis direction, so that the crystal coating nozzle (5) is positioned on the substrate ig to form a region of the liquid crystal layer. When the liquid crystal coating head 15G_support unit (10) moves rearward together in the Y-axis direction, and the coating is started by the glue, the control cries the liquid crystal coating nozzle 152 to discharge the liquid crystal onto the substrate 1A. As described above, after the glue is applied to the left portion of the substrate 1 in the γ-axis direction, it is controlled that (9) the control-coating nozzle 142 is continuously applied onto the substrate (1). Subsequently, 1326368 controller 101 fixes the position of the head supporting unit 130, and after moving the glue coating head 140 to the right in the X-axis direction to the target position mouth, the controller ι〇ι applies the liquid-positive coating nozzle 152 to The x-axis direction is moved to the right such that the liquid crystal coating nozzle 152 is located in the region on the substrate 10 where the liquid crystal layer will be formed. The controller 101 controls the liquid crystal application nozzle 152 to continuously discharge the liquid crystal onto the substrate 10. • As described above, after the glue is applied to the lower portion of the substrate 10 in the X-axis direction, the controller ιοί control glue application nozzle 142 continuously applies the glue to the substrate 1〇. Subsequently, the controller 101 moves the head supporting unit 130 toward the target position in the Y-axis direction, so that the glue applying head 140 can move forward in the γ-axis direction. Subsequently, the controller 101 moves the liquid crystal coating nozzle 152 to the left in the z-axis direction so that the liquid crystal coating nozzle 152 is positioned in the region on the substrate 1 which will form the liquid crystal layer. Subsequently, the controller 101 controls the liquid crystal coating nozzle 152 to continuously discharge the liquid crystal on the substrate 1G, and stops the liquid crystal before the liquid crystal coating nozzle 152 is about to deviate from the region on the substrate 1 to which the liquid crystal layer is to be formed. As described above, after the glue pattern is formed on the right portion of the substrate ι in the γ-axis direction, the controller 101 controls the glue application nozzle 丨 42 to continuously apply over the substrate. After Ik, the control 101 fixes the position of the head support unit 13〇 while moving the glue 17 1326368 coating head 140 to the left in the X-axis direction. If each glue pattern forms a closed circle as shown in FIG. 2, the coating is stopped. Bu Sheng. After the glue pattern is formed as described above, the controller 1〇1 compares the amount of liquid crystal actually applied to the substrate 1 to a predetermined amount of liquid crystal. If the actual liquid crystal amount is less than the predetermined liquid crystal amount, the H 101 head supporting unit 13G and the liquid crystal coating head 150' are controlled to simultaneously control the liquid crystal coating nozzle 152 to discharge the liquid crystal onto the substrate such that the area defined by the glue pattern is a predetermined amount of liquid crystal. Covered. Thus, the liquid crystal layer is formed in the region defined by the glue pattern. As described above, according to this embodiment of the present invention, the coating device 1 can simultaneously form a glue pattern and a liquid crystal layer, and is not sent to the position of the liquid crystal coater as in the conventional technical towel substrate, so as to form a money, Finely smashed into liquid daily. Therefore, the processing time for manufacturing the LCD panel can be reduced. Fig. 6 is a perspective view showing a coating apparatus 2GG for manufacturing an LCD panel according to another embodiment of the present invention. Symbols in the illustrations represent the same elements. Only the differences between this embodiment and the previously disclosed embodiments will be described herein. Referring to the coating apparatus 2 of Fig. 6, wherein the glue coating head _ is placed on the 1326368 head support unit 231, and the liquid crystal coating head (9) is placed on the second head label unit 232. • The first and second head support units 232 are actuated by the Y-axis for the head tower unit to be placed on the turn 11〇 in a gamma-neutral sliding manner. The controller 2〇1 controls the first and second head supporting units 231 and 232 so that the two are independent of each other. Therefore, the interval between the first and second head unit units 231 and 232 can be adjusted under the control of the controller 201. Two or more first-head unit units 231 and two or more second head selection units 232 may be provided to enhance the processing capacity of the large-size base and to form various glue patterns. If two or more first and first head support units are provided, one or more second head tower units 232 may be provided corresponding to the first head support unit 231 to effectively form the glue pattern and the liquid crystal layer. . The arrangement of the rag head 14G crystallized surface 15 () is as described in the embodiment. As in the previous embodiment, the glue coating head 14 is moved relative to the pedestal 12 to move the glue coating nozzle (4) relative to the substrate 1 (). The liquid crystal coating head 15 is moved by the second head coating unit in the X-axis direction by the X-axis actuator for the liquid crystal coating head so that the liquid crystal coating head 15 is opposed to the glue coating head (10). mobile. Under the control of the controller 201, the glue coating head 14M moves toward the pedestal (9), and the liquid crystal coating head 150 moves relative to the glue coating head 14 。. A plurality of glue coating heads M 〇 and a plurality of liquid crystal coating heads can be provided as shown in the figure No. 6 19 1326 368. This system is designed to form a plurality of pastes and a plurality of liquid crystal layers on a large-sized substrate to increase productivity. In this example, the glue coating head M is slid along the first head supporting unit 231. The glue coating head 140 and the liquid crystal coating head 15 can be placed in a plurality of different positions. For example, as shown in Fig. 6, the liquid crystal coating head 150 is placed between the first head supporting unit 231 and the second head supporting unit 232. The reason for this is that when the glue coating head 140 is coated with glue, the liquid crystal is quickly applied by the liquid crystal coating head 15 . In this example, as shown in FIG. 6, the glue coating head 14 is placed outside the coating device 100, or placed in the form of the liquid crystal coating head 15 ,, placed on the first head supporting unit 231. Between the second head supporting unit 232. # The coating device 200 constructed above has the same process for forming the glue pattern and the liquid crystal layer as the process used in the previous embodiment. The same controller 1 controls the first and second head supporting units 231 and 232, so that the two move independently. Further, the control person 201 can control the glue coating head to continuously form a plurality of glue patterns, and control the liquid crystal coating head 150 to form a plurality of liquid crystal layers in the glue pattern. In accordance with the present invention, the glue application devices 100 and 200 can form a glue pattern and a liquid crystal layer by a variety of different methods. 20 1326368 As described above, according to the present invention, the coating apparatus can simultaneously form a glue pattern and a liquid crystal layer. Therefore, it is not necessary to transfer the substrate to the position of the crystallizer after the glue machine forms the glue pattern to form the liquid crystal layer, so that the processing chamber for manufacturing the liquid crystal panel can be reduced. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many modifications and changes can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. The present invention is intended to cover modifications and variations within the scope of the appended claims.
