- a configuration is disclosed in which the polarization axis direction (transmission axis direction) of the film piece and the polarization axis direction of the film piece bonded to the other surface are oriented at right angles.
- FIG. 5 is a schematic view showing an example of a possible mode of bonding the optical films F11 and F21 to the liquid crystal cell W.

- the second optical film F21 is bonded to the other surface, so that the optical films F11 and F21 are formed on both surfaces of the liquid crystal cell W. Can be pasted together.
- the first optical film F11 is orthogonal to the width direction of the first optical film F11 from a first roll R1 formed by winding the first optical film F11 around the core A1. Sent out in the direction.
- the second optical film F21 extends from the second roll original fabric R2 formed by winding the second optical film F21 around the core A2 in the width direction of the second optical film F21. On the other hand, it is sent out in the orthogonal direction.
- the first optical film F11 and the second optical film F21 have polarization axes B1 and B2 extending in a direction orthogonal to the width direction, that is, in the transport direction of the optical films F11 and F21, respectively. Only light that vibrates along B2 can pass therethrough.
- the first optical film F11 is bonded to one surface of the liquid crystal cell W.
- the width along the core A1 of the first optical film F11 corresponds to the short side of the liquid crystal cell W, and the first optical film F11 is cut in the width direction at intervals corresponding to the long side of the liquid crystal cell W.
- the first optical film F11 having a shape corresponding to the liquid crystal cell W is formed.

本発明の実施形態1について以下に説明する。図1に実施形態1の光学表示装置の製造方法のフローチャートを示す。実施形態1の製造システムの別実施形態として、第1・第2欠点検査装置を備えていない構成も例示できる。
まず、本発明に用いられる液晶セルは、例えば、ガラス基板ユニット、有機EL発光体ユニット等を含むものが挙げられる。液晶セルは、例えば長方形状に形成される。
液晶セルに貼り合せられる光学フィルムは、偏光子(偏光子フィルム)を含むものであれば、位相差フィルム、輝度向上フィルムなどの他のフィルムが組み合わせられた積層フィルムであってもよい。光学フィルムの表面には、保護用の透明フィルムが積層される場合がある。また、光学フィルムの一方表面には、液晶セルに貼り付けられるように、粘着剤層が形成され、この粘着剤層を保護するための離型フィルムが設けられる。また、光学フィルムのその他方表面には、粘着剤層を介して表面保護フィルムが設けられる。これらフィルムの具体的構成は後述する。以下において、表面保護フィルムおよび離型フィルムが粘着剤層を介して積層された光学フィルムをシート製品と称することがある。
(1)第1ロール原反準備工程(図1、S1)。長尺の第1シート製品を第1ロール原反として準備する。第1ロール原反の幅は、液晶セルの貼り合わせサイズに依存している。図2に示すように、第1シート製品F1の積層構造は、第1光学フィルムF11と、第1離型フィルムF12と、表面保護フィルムF13とを有する。第1光学フィルムF11は、第1偏光子F11aと、その一方面に接着剤層(不図示)を介した第1フィルムF11bと、その他方面に接着剤層(不図示)を介した第2フィルムF11cとで構成されている。
また、上記第1切断工程および第2切断工程の別実施形態を以下に説明する。第1および第2ロール原反の幅方向の一方の端部には、所定ピッチ単位(例えば1000mm)に第1、第2シート製品の欠点情報(欠点座標、欠点の種類、サイズ等)がコード情報(例えばQRコード、バーコード)として付されている場合がある。このような場合、切断する前段階で、このコード情報を読み取り、解析して欠点部分を避けるように、第1、第2切断工程において所定サイズに切断する。そして、欠点を含む部分は除去あるいは液晶セルではない部材に貼り合わせるように構成し、所定サイズに切断された良品判定の枚葉のシート製品を液晶セルに貼り合わされるように構成する。これにより、光学フィルムF11,F21の歩留まりが大幅に向上される。
以下に、実施形態1の製造方法を実現する好適な製造システムの一例について説明する。
欠点検査は公知の欠点検査方法が適用できる。自動検査装置は、シート製品の欠点(欠陥とも称される)を自動で検査する装置であり、光を照射し、その反射光像や透過光像をラインセンサーや2次元TVカメラなどの撮像部を介して取得し、取得された画像データに基づいて、欠点検出を行う。また、光源と撮像部の間の光路中に検査用偏光フィルタを介在させた状態で画像データを取得する。通常、この検査用偏光フィルタの偏光軸(例えば、偏光吸収軸)は、検査対象である偏光板の偏光軸(例えば、偏光吸収軸)と直交する状態(クロスニコル)となるように配置される。クロスニコルに配置することで、仮に欠点が存在しなければ撮像部から全面黒の画像が入力されるが、欠点が存在すれば、その部分が黒にならない(輝点として認識される)。従って、適宜のしきい値を設定することで、欠点を検出することができる。このような輝点検出では、表面付着物、内部の異物等の欠点が輝点として検出される。また、この輝点検出のほかに、対象物に対して透過光画像をCCD撮像し画像解析することで異物検出する方法もある。また、対象物に対して反射光画像をCCD撮像し画像解析することで表面付着異物を検出する方法もある。
偏光板Aの作成:重合度2700、厚さ75μmのポリビニルアルコールフィルムを原反から繰り出し、30℃の水浴中で1分間膨潤させつつ搬送方向に1.2倍に延伸した後、30℃のヨウ化カリウム濃度0.03%、ヨウ素濃度0.3%の水溶液中で60秒間浸漬して染色しながら、フィルム搬送方向にトータルで3倍に延伸した。次いで、60℃のホウ酸濃度4%、ヨウ化カリウム濃度5%の水溶液中に30秒間浸漬しながらトータルで6倍に延伸した。最後に、30℃のヨウ化カリウム濃度2%の水溶液中に数秒浸漬することで洗浄し、得られた延伸フィルムを70℃で2分間乾燥することで偏光子を得た。得られた偏光子の両面に、偏光子保護フィルムとして「富士フィルム社製TD80UL」をPVA系接着剤を介して貼り合せて、幅方向に対して直交方向の偏光軸を有する偏光板Aを作成した。得られた偏光板Aの光学特性を「日本分光製分光光度計V7100」で測定したところ、透過率41.0%、偏光度99.997%であった。
偏光板Cの作成:基材フィルムとして「富士フィルム社製TD80UL」を原反から繰り出し、2,2’-ビス(3,4-ジカルボキシフェニル)ヘキサフルオロプロパン≒6FDA及び2,2’-ビス(トリフルオロメチル)-4,4’-ジアミノビフェニル≒PFMB≒TFMBから合成された、ポリイミドを溶媒にシクロヘキサノンを用い15wt%で調製した溶液を20μmの厚みで塗布した。その後100℃で10min乾燥処理することで、厚み約3μmの薄膜を有する薄膜付基材フィルムを得た。得られた薄膜付基材フィルムの位相差を「王子計測製KOBRA(登録商標)21ADH」を使用して測定したところ、正面位相差1.2nm、厚み方向位相差188nmであった。この薄膜付基材フィルムを160℃で幅方向に1.19倍に固定端1軸延伸(テンター延伸)して、位相差付基材フィルムBを作成した。得られた位相差付基材フィルムBの位相差を「王子計測製KOBRA(登録商標)21ADH」を使用して測定したところ正面位相差56nm、厚み方向位相差270nmであった。なお、この位相差付基材フィルムBの遅相軸は、幅方向であった。上記偏光板Aと同様に作成した偏光子の片面に、偏光子保護フィルムとして「富士フィルム社製TD80UL」をPVA系接着剤を介して貼り合せ、他方面に、位相差層付偏光子保護フィルムとして前記で作成した位相差付基材フィルムBをPVA系接着剤を介して貼り合せて、幅方向に対して直交方向の偏光軸を有する偏光板Cを作成した。得られた偏光板Cの光学特性を「日本分光製分光光度計V7100」で測定したところ、透過率41.0%、偏光度99.995%であった。
まず、光学フィルムの一例として偏光板について説明する。偏光板は、予め製造しておいたポリビニルアルコール系フィルム(偏光子)の片面に例えばTAC(トリアセチルセルロース)フィルム(偏光子保護フィルム)を貼り合わせ、他方面にPET(ポリエチレンテレフタレート)フィルムを貼り合せることで得られる。
