Definitions

  • the present invention relates to optical films.
  • the present invention relates to a tab, which allows easy removal of protective coverings from optical films and a method of forming the tab.
  • Optical films are used to increase the amount of light exiting an optical display in a preferred direction, typically this is a direction normal, or "on-axis," to the surface of the display. Increasing the amount of on-axis light reduces the amount of energy required to generate a desired amount of on-axis luminance. This is particularly important for optical displays that use battery powered light sources such as those used in laptop computers, calculators, digital wristwatches, cellular phones, and personal digital assistants.
  • the 3M brand Brightness Enhancement Film from 3M Company, the assignee of the present invention, is used to address this problem.
  • the film collects light from "off-axis” and redirects or “recycles” this light on-axis toward the viewer. In use, this material increases the on-axis luminance at the expense of off-axis luminance.
  • a "turning" film is also used to increase the amount of on-axis light exiting a display. Turning films are usually used in combination with wedge-shaped or stepped-wedge light guides. Light rays exiting the light guide at the glancing angle, usually less than 30° to the output surface, are internally reflected such that they are directed substantially on-axis. Representative embodiments of turning films are described in U.S. Patent Nos.
  • Another film used to increase on-axis light exiting a display is a reflective polarizer, these include multilayer optical films such as DBEF from 3M Company.
  • the film is formed of layers of polymer that provides high polarized reflectivity over a wide bandwidth.
  • the present invention is an optical product with a cover removal tab and a method of making the product.
  • a web comprised of a protective cover sheet and an optical film sheet, is cut to form the optical product with the cover removal tab. Another cut is through essentially only the optical film to divide the optical film and the cover removal tab so that the cover removal tab remains connected to the optical product by the protective cover.
  • Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view of an optical display.
  • Figure 2 is a top view of a representative embodiment of a light directing film for use in a display in accordance with the present invention.
  • Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view of a representative embodiment of a light directing film for use in a display in accordance with the present invention.
  • Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view of a light directing product in accordance with the present invention.
  • Figures 5a-5f are cross-sectional views illustrating a method of making a light directing film for use in a display in accordance with the present invention.
  • Figure 6 is a representative alternate embodiment of a light directing film for use in a display in accordance with the present invention.
  • Figure 7 is a front view of a converting machine.
  • Figure 8 is a top view of an upper die.
  • Figure 9 is a top view of a lower die.
  • the present invention is described in terms of light directing films such as the 3M brand Brightness Enhancement Film, which has prism elements with apex angles of about
  • Figure 1 shows an optical display 10, which includes case 12, light source 14, light directing film 16, light gating device 18, and cover sheet 20. It can be seen that light directing film 16 has a structured surface containing prism elements, which may be any of a variety of sizes and forms. Here, the size of the structured surface, in particular, is greatly exaggerated for illustrative purposes. Sharp-tipped prism elements, such as shown here, are fragile and must be protected prior to assembly into optical display 10.
  • a protective cover or pre- mask, must be applied to light directing film 16 and subsequently removed for installation.
  • a light directing product which includes a protective cover laminated to a light directing film, as it comes to a manufacturer for assembly into an optical device and the method of making the product.
  • Figures 2 and 3 are top and cross-sectional side views, respectively, of a representative embodiment of the present invention.
  • Figures 2 and 3 show a light directing film for use in displays 22, which includes light directing product with cover removal tab (tabbed product) 24 and liner 26 (shown cut away).
  • Tabbed product 24 further includes light directing product 28; tab 30; cut 32, which divides light directing product 28 and tab 30; and protective covers 34a and 34b.
  • FIG 3 which is a cross-section along section 3-3 of Figure 2, further shows that tabbed product 24 includes two layers, protective covers 34a and 34b and light directing films 36a and 36b.
  • the perimeters, or edges, of protective covers 34a and 34b and light directing films 36a and 36b are the same shape and size so that when stacked the edges are aligned.
  • Tab 30 may be attached essentially anywhere along the perimeter of light directing product 28.
  • Tabbed product 24 is manufactured on liner 26 and remains adhered to liner 26 until light directing film 36a is assembled into an optical display. At this time, tabbed product 24 is detached from liner 26. Typically, about 15 tabbed products 24 are adhered to a section of liner 26, and when all of them are detached, liner 26 can be discarded.
  • Figure 4 shows tabbed product 24 in use.
  • protective covers 34a and 34b and light directing film 36b must be removed from light directing film 36a.
  • Tab 30, which includes protective cover 34b and light directing film 36b, is pulled in a manner that peels protective cover 34a from light directing film 36a.
  • Light directing film 36a is now ready for installation.
  • tabbed product 24 is placed in the display prior to removing tab 30 and protective cover 34a from light directing film 36a.
  • Figures 5a-5f illustrate one method of making a light directing film for use in a display 22.
  • Figure 5a shows light directing film sheet 38, which contains prism elements that can be made by any one of a variety of known techniques.
  • protective cover sheet 40 is laminated onto the structured surface of light directing film sheet 38 (see Figure 1) to form web 42.
  • web 42 is adhered to liner 26 forming web/liner 44 as shown in Figure 5c.
  • Figure 5d shows the positions of blade 46a of upper die 46 and blade 48a of lower die 48 relative to web/liner 44.
  • Upper and lower dies 46 and 48 described in more detail below, cut web/liner 44 to form tabbed product 24.
  • Figure 5e blade 46a is shown cutting down through web 42, and blade 48a is shown cutting up through liner 26 and light directing film sheet 38, although these cuts do not necessarily happen concurrently on a single tabbed product 24.
  • Figure 5f shows the resulting light directing film for use in displays 22.
  • Figure 6 illustrates a representative embodiment of a light directing film for use in a display with a transfer tape 50. Transfer tape 52 is adhered along the edges of light directing film 36a opposite the structured surface, which is laminated to protective cover 34a. Transfer tape 52 is used to mount film 36a on the back of a light guide in an optical display.
  • Figure 7 shows a converting machine 54 that can be used with the present invention.
  • Figure 7 includes converting machine 54 and web/liner 44.
  • Converting machine 54 comprises unwinder 56, stamping press 58 with upper die 46 and lower die 48, stripper 60, and sheet cutter 62.
  • rolls of web/liner 44 are unwound by unwinder 56 and fed through stamping press 58.
  • Upper die 46 of stamping press 58 vertically reciprocates, while lower die tabbed product 24.
  • Web/liner 44 is then fed into stripper 60 where waste web 42 surrounding tabbed products 24 is stripped away.
  • Web/liner 44 is subsequently fed through sheet cutter 62 where liner 26 is cut into sections that carry one or more of tabbed products 24.
  • Figure 8 is an illustration of upper die 46 with blade 46a. As shown, blade 46a has the overall shape of tabbed product 24.
  • Upper die 46 reciprocates vertically to cut, or punch, out tabbed product 24 from web 42.
  • Figure 9 is an illustration of lower die 48 with blade 48a. Blade 48a is shaped to cut or sever at cut 32.
  • lower die 48 is stationary and cuts through liner 26 to sever light directing film 36a from light directing film 36b ( Figures 2 and 3).
  • dies 46 and 48 cut concurrently, but more specifically by progressive cutting.
  • die 48 performs its cut for one tabbed product 24.
  • die 46 performs its cut for a second tabbed product 24 that is actually positioned ahead of the first tabbed product 24 and was previously cut by die 48.
  • the cuts could alternatively be performed by sequential strokes, however, progressive cutting is the simplest and most efficient means of cutting.
  • the present invention has been discussed using a stamping process to form the cover removal tab for light directing products, it is well within the scope of this invention to use any means of converting a tab on light directing products. For example, a rotary converting process may also be used to form the cover removal tab.
  • the present invention has several advantages. First, there is no imprint of tab 30 transferred to light directing film 36a when tabbed products 24 are stacked or rolled-up for storage. Second, protective covers 34a and 34b are not larger than light directing films 36a and 36b, because having protective covers 34a and 34b larger than light directing films 36a and 36b is unacceptable to some users.
  • tabbed product 24 only requires a one punch-head converting machine.
  • the addition of tab 30 to light directing product 28 provides a way to easily remove a protective cover from a light directing film.
