Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for utilizing ultraviolet (UV) light to cure a disk-shaped product using UV-LED chips mounted in an array and providing for relative movement between the array and the disk-shaped product, thereby to cure a curable ink, coating or adhesive mounted in the disk- shaped product.
- UV light ultraviolet
- the inks, coatings and adhesives have UV photo initiators which, when exposed to UV light, convert monomers in the inks, coatings and adhesives to linking polymers to solidify the curable material.
- UV-LED arrays have been proposed for curing inks, coatings or adhesives.
- the prior proposals teach one to stagger rows of UV-LED's in different arrays on a panel positioned closely adjacent a product to be cured, to move the product past the array, to move the array in a generally orbital path to uniformly apply UV light on the product and to inject an inert, heavier than air or lighter than air gas in the area between the panel and the product.
- different wavelengths of UV light are better suited for different thicknesses of ink, coating or adhesive and/or for different components in the ink coating or adhesive. For example, thick polymers require longer wavelengths for curing. Surface curing requires shorter wavelengths.
- UV curable adhesives and coatings are in the manufacture of compact disks, CD's. It is, therefore, desirable to provide an improved UV method and apparatus for applying UV light at one or more wavelengths to a disk-shaped UV curable product to more effectively cure UV inks, coatings and adhesives in or on the product, by causing relative rotation between the UV light and the disk-shaped product.
- a method and apparatus for curing an UV curable product, article, ink coating or adhesive in or on a disk including the step of or mechanisms for causing relative rotational movement between an array of UV-LED chips mounted on a panel and a disk containing the UV curable product, article, ink coating or adhesive.
- at least one staggered array of UV LED assemblies on at least one panel with the UV LED assemblies being arranged in rows with each row being staggered from adjacent rows.

- the glass or plastic sheets described above for the apparatus of FIGS. 2 and 4 are preferably transparent or translucent, as well as rigid or semi-rigid, to provide impact-resistant light transmissive barriers to protect and shield the UV LED chips from splatter, dust, particularly, liquid containing UV photo initiators and other liquids.
- the disk-shaped product or the at least one elongate panel can be rotated a predetermined number of times between two and twenty (20) to enhance polymerization and curing of the UV curable photo-initiators.
- Insertion and ejection mechanisms can be provided for sequentially moving a disk-shaped product onto and off of the stationary or rotatable support pad or pedestal in a mass production operation of the apparatus of the present invention.
- the method and apparatus of the present invention provide techniques and structures for applying UV light emitted from UV-LED's more uniformly so that such light is more effective in curing inks, coatings and adhesives and, by applying the UV light more evenly, reducing, if not all together eliminating, "hot spots".
- One of the techniques is to provide staggered arrays of UV LED assemblies on a panel with the UV LED assemblies being arranged in rows with each row being staggered from adjacent rows. Basically a spacing offset between adjacent rows of 1/x can be provided in an array of UV-LED chips, where x equals the number of rows. In addition to the staggering of the UV LED assemblies in adjacent rows, relative movement is provided between a UV curable product, article or other object having a UV ink, coating or adhesive to be cured and the arrays of UV-LED assemblies.
- the panel is moved or rotated, thereby to cause a sweeping of the light from each UV LED assembly over a circular area, thereby minimizing the creation of "hot spots" and to uniformly apply UV light to the product, article or other object having the UV ink, coating or adhesive.
- the method and apparatus of the present invention provide uniformity of light application from a flat panel having an array of UV-LED's. This result is obtained when the product and/or the light fixture is moved relative to and across, i.e., rotated, relative to the UV light beams from the UV-LED assemblies in the light fixture and/or product, This movement in of itself has the ability to offer one element of uniformity.
- the movement of the product or the movement of the light array addresses the problem of providing uniformity in the direction of the product flow or of the lamp movement.
- the "X Axis" uniformity is addressed by the movement of the product or of the LED array.
- the "Y Axis” uniformity is addressed by how the LED chips are arranged.
- the first step in building these arrays is to create either a series or parallel electrical circuit either in series or in which the LED chips are placed in a linear fashion of equal distance from each other. (Lets say a distance of X).
- the second row would start its row at a distance ⁇ A X and each LED chip would then be spaced from adjacent LED chips in the row by the distance X.
- the third row would start at a distance VT. X in from the start of the second row. This offset would continue for each row of LED chips in the array. Two things happen when this is done. First the light uniformity is increased because of the alternating position of the UV-LED chips. This creates an overlap of light emissions. Then, having each row begin half the distance of the row it precedes will create a stair case effect. This will allow uniformity in the Y Axis as the array grows in size. There is another way to position the LED chips, and achieve the same uniformity. This would be to use 3 rows to achieve the uniformity.
- the LED chips in the first row being spaced at a distance of X from each other.
- the second row starts its first LED chip at a distance % X in from the first LED chip in the first row.
- the third row starts its row at a distance ⁇ A X in from the first LED chip in the first row or at a distance % X in from the start of the previous row.
- a thin transparent plastic sheet or layer is positioned over the array to protect the array, and the sheet or layer is periodically cleaned or replaced.
- a row of UV-LED chips that radiate light in the visible spectrum is added to provide a means for quickly and visually checking to see if the apparatus or device is turned on and working, even if the ink, coating or adhesive does not contain photo initiators that are activated by the light having a wavelength in the visible spectrum. UV light at two or more different wavelengths also can be employed to better cure the ink coating or adhesive in the product.
- the ink, coating or adhesive can contain photo initiators that are activated by light at more than one wavelength, such as for example photo initiators which are activated by light that is peak at approximately 365 nm and by light that is peak at approximately 385 nm. Since the intensity of light emitted by UV-LED chips is affected or attenuated, by an increase in the temperature of the UV-LED chips, one embodiment of the present invention contemplates the provision of a cooling system including heat radiating fins on a substrate mounting the chips and the blowing of cooling air past the fins to keep the temperature of the UV-LED chips within a predetermined range.
- the temperature of the substrate or the intensity of the light emitted can be monitored and used to control current or voltage to a fan blowing cooling air on the substrate thereby to increase cooling of the substrate to maintain a constant temperature of the substrate thereby to maintain generally constant light intensity as heating of the chips tends to cause light intensity to diminish.
- "forward voltage matching techniques", VF are employed, (selection of chips) to provide strings or rows of LED chips wherein the current drawn by the chips only varies between about 5% and about 10%, thereby to minimize "current hogging".
- the distance between the light source and the product being irradiated with light affects the intensity of the light. However, if the product is too close to the UV- LED arrays, there will not be a uniform radiance pattern.
- the preferred distance between the UV-LED chip arrays is a distance which will provide a uniform pattern of light from the light diverging from the UV-LED chips and at 50% of the power output from the UV-LED chip. This distance is defined as the Viewing Cone Angle of 2 ⁇ 2 .
- UV-LED chip arrays can be placed next to other sources of light, such as a fluorescent lamp whose phosphors are chosen to augment the increase of light wavelengths. For example, OSRAM SYLVANIA, INC.
- the disk-shaped product or at least one panel having an array of offset staggered UV-LED chips thereon can be rotated.
- a transparent or translucent glass or plastic shield can be provided for maintaining the UV-LED chips free from debris.
- a non-oxygen gas can be provided for enhancing curing and can be circulated to enhance cooling of the UV-LED chips. 4. Outstanding curing. 5. Excellent results. 6. Greater product output. 7. Super quality. 8. Fewer defective products. 9. User friendly. 10. Economical. 11. Efficient. 12. Effective. From the foregoing description, it will be apparent that the method and apparatus of the present invention have a number of advantages, some of which have been described above and others of which are inherent in the invention and examples. Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood that various modifications and substitutions, as well as rearrangements of components, parts, equipment, apparatus, process (method) steps, and uses thereof, can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the teachings of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of the invention is only to be limited as necessitated by the accompanying claims.
