The invention discloses a 3D (three-dimensional)
glass cover plate and a method for manufacturing the same. The method includes main steps of
coating photoresist on glass; developing target patterns by means of
exposure; chemically
etching display regions and forming grooves by means of
machining; removing the
photoresist on the surfaces of the glass by the aid of release agents; carrying out appearance
processing and light sweeping, to be more specific,
processing the glass by the aid of a numerical-control
machine tool to obtain the outer contour of the cover plate and 2.5D (2.5-dimensional) edges of the upper surface of the cover plate and then carrying out light sweeping on the 2.5D edges and the grooves; chemically
tempering the glass to obtain the 3D
glass cover plate which is a finished product. The target patterns include protected regions and etched regions, the
photoresist covers the protected regions and does not cover the etched regions, and the etched regions include the display regions, and touch display modules can be correspondingly laminated on the display regions. The 3D
glass cover plate and the method have the advantages that the integral thicknesses of touch screens can be reduced, 2.5D and 3D effects can be realized by the appearance of the edges, and requirements on lightening and
thinning the 3D glass cover plate can be met; chemical
etching processing technologies are exquisite, and accordingly the strength, the precision, the production efficiency and the high degree of
automation of the product can be guaranteed.
