Figure 2 This is another structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the LED integrated unit of this application.
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the LED integration unit 10 includes a base 11 and an LED chip 12 disposed on top of the base 11. Specifically, as... Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the base 11 is arranged in an inverted frustum shape in the direction away from the LED chip 12. Optionally, in this embodiment, the average density of the base 11 is greater than the average density of the LED chip 12.
[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the base 11 includes a first electrode 111, a second electrode 112, and a capacitor 113. The first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112 are electrically connected to the LED chip 12, and the capacitor 113 is electrically connected between the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112. An insulating layer is provided between the capacitor 113 and the LED chip 12.

[0035] Specifically, the first electrode 111 has a first electrode surface on the peripheral sidewall of the base 11, the second electrode 112 has a second electrode surface on the bottom of the base 11, the first solder is in contact with the first electrode surface, and / or the second solder is in contact with the second electrode surface.

[0036] The first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112 are spaced apart by the capacitor 113, and the base 11 further comprises a flow barrier layer (not shown in the figure) arranged on the outer surface of the capacitor 113. Specifically, the flow barrier layer is a hydrophobic layer, which is used to prevent the melted first solder and / or the melted second solder from flowing between the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112, thereby preventing the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112 from being short-circuited.
[0037] Further, the capacitor 113 of the embodiment is configured to store static charges on the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112, thereby allowing the LED integrated unit 10 to be oriented in a directional electric field. Specifically, within the range of circuit trace tolerance, the embodiment gives the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112 a stable high voltage, so that a certain size of electric field is generated between the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112, and the direction and angle of the electric field can be changed by changing the direction of the voltage, so as to change the direction and angle of the LED integrated unit 10.
[0038] As shown in Figure 1 The bottom of the base 11 is provided with a positioning recess 13, and the second electrode 112 is located in the positioning recess 13. Specifically, the second electrode 112 is arranged at the bottom of the positioning recess 13, and the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112 are isolated by the sidewall of the positioning recess 13, so as to prevent the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112 from being short-circuited during welding.
[0039] Optionally, the LED wafer 12 of the embodiment can include LEDs of multiple light emitting colors. In order to reduce the welding difficulty, batch welding is adopted, that is, the LED wafers 12 of the same light emitting color are welded simultaneously, and the LEDs of the same batch are welded to a certain distance of the accommodation area 23 to avoid mutual influence.
[0040] The base 11 of the LED integrated unit 10 is provided with a first electrode 111 and a second electrode 112 electrically connected with the LED wafer 12 respectively, and a capacitor 113 electrically connected between the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112, and then the first solder in contact with the first electrode 111 and / or the second solder in contact with the second electrode 112 is melted by the alternating welding current, so as to realize the transfer of the LED integrated unit 10 to the substrate, and the structure of the LED integrated unit 10 is simple and convenient for welding with the substrate.
[0041] The application further provides an LED display device, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the LED display device of the application, Figure 4 is another structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the LED display device of the application.
[0042] As Figure 3 shown, the LED display device 20 comprises a driving backboard 21 and a plurality of LED integrated units 22. The LED integrated unit 22 is the LED integrated unit 10 described in the above embodiment, which will not be described here.
[0043] The driving backboard 21 is provided with a plurality of accommodating areas 23, and the plurality of LED integrated units 22 are arranged in the corresponding accommodating areas 23. As Figure 4 shown, the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 are arranged in each accommodating area 23, the third electrode 231 is in contact with the first electrode 111 through the first solder, and / or the fourth electrode 232 is in contact with the second electrode 112 through the second solder. Further, the capacitor 113 is also arranged to allow the alternating welding current to be transmitted between the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 through the capacitor 113, so that the first solder and / or the second solder is melted, thereby realizing the welding of the LED integrated unit 22 in the accommodating area 23.
[0044] Specifically, the accommodating area 23 is arranged in a recessed manner, wherein the base 11 and the accommodating area 23 are arranged in an inverted frustum shape in a direction away from the LED wafer 12, and the size of the accommodating area 23 is greater than the size of the base 11, so that the base 11 can be completely arranged in the accommodating area 23.
[0045] The third electrode 231 has a third electrode surface on the circumferential wall of the accommodating area 23, the fourth electrode 232 has a fourth electrode surface on the bottom of the accommodating area 23, the first solder is clamped between the first electrode surface and the third electrode surface, and / or the second solder is clamped between the second electrode surface and the fourth electrode surface. Optionally, the surface of the third electrode 231 is a ring-shaped discontinuous strip electrode, and different connection areas are provided with different thickness and granularity of solder.
[0046] Further, the bottom of the accommodating area 23 is provided with a positioning boss 24 matched with the positioning recess 13, the second electrode 112 is located in the positioning recess 13, and the fourth electrode 232 is located on the positioning boss 24. Wherein, the second solder for welding the second electrode 112 and the fourth electrode 232 is only arranged on the positioning boss 24, and when the second solder is melted, the second solder cannot be welded with the first solder, thereby causing the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112 to be short-circuited, and / or the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 to be short-circuited.
[0047] The LED display device 20 of the present application is provided with a plurality of accommodating areas 23, and the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 are arranged in the accommodating area 23. By arranging the capacitor 113 to allow the alternating current welding current to be transmitted between the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 through the capacitor 113, the alternating current welding current melts the first solder clamped between the third electrode 231 and the first electrode 111 and / or the second solder clamped between the fourth electrode 232 and the second electrode 112, so as to weld the plurality of LED integrated units 22 arranged in the accommodating area 23 to the LED display device 20. The structure of the LED display device 20 is simple, and the welding is convenient.
[0048] The present application also provides a manufacturing equipment of an LED display device, which is used for manufacturing the LED display device 20 as described in the above embodiments. Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 which is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the manufacturing equipment of the LED display device of the present application.
[0049] As shown in Figure 5 , the manufacturing equipment 30 comprises a container 31, a carrier 32, a positioning mechanism 33, and an alternating current generator 34. Wherein, the container 31 is used for accommodating a plurality of LED integrated units 22, the carrier 32 is used for carrying the driving backboard 21, the positioning mechanism 33 is used for positioning the plurality of LED integrated units 22 into the corresponding accommodating areas 23 respectively, and the alternating current generator 34 is used for providing the alternating current welding current flowing through the capacitor 113 between the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232.
[0050] Specifically, when the plurality of LED integrated units 22 are taken out from the container 31 and arranged in the corresponding accommodating areas 23, i.e. when the LED integrated units 22 stored in the container 31 are transferred to the driving backboard 21, the manufacturing equipment 30 positions the plurality of LED integrated units 22 into the corresponding accommodating areas 23 respectively by the positioning mechanism 33, so as to make the third electrode 231 contact with the first electrode 111 through the first solder, and / or the fourth electrode 232 contact with the second electrode 112 through the second solder.
[0051] The manufacturing apparatus 30 further provides an alternating current welding current through the capacitor 113 between the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 by the alternating current generator 34, so as to melt the first solder and / or the second solder by the alternating current welding current, and thereby weld the plurality of LED integrated units 22 into the corresponding accommodation regions 23.
[0052] Optionally, in the embodiment, the positioning mechanism 33 is a voltage generator. Since the LED integrated units 22 are loaded with static charges, i.e. the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112 store static charges, the voltage generator provides a directional voltage to the third electrode 231 and / or the fourth electrode 232, so as to position the LED integrated units 22 into the accommodation regions 23 by the interaction between the directional electric field formed by the third electrode 231 and / or the fourth electrode 232 and the static charges on the LED integrated units 22.
[0053] Specifically, the voltage generator provides a first directional voltage to the fourth electrode 232, so as to attract the LED integrated units 22 into the accommodation regions 23 and form an alignment contact between the second electrode surface and the fourth electrode surface, and further provides a second directional voltage to the third electrode 231 to form an alignment contact between the first electrode surface and the third electrode surface.
[0054] Further, as shown in Figure 5 , the manufacturing apparatus 30 of the embodiment further comprises a charging mechanism 35 for charging the capacitor 113, and thereby storing static charges on the first electrode 111 and the second electrode 112.
[0055] Further, as shown in Figure 5 , the manufacturing apparatus 30 of the embodiment further comprises a conduction detection mechanism 36 for determining whether a current loop is formed between the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 through the LED integrated units 22 during the existence of the alternating current welding current, and if not, generating an adjustment indication signal to indicate the voltage generator or an additional positioning mechanism to adjust the position of the LED integrated units 22 in the accommodation regions 23.
[0056] Optionally, since the driving backboard 21 is provided with a plurality of accommodation regions 23, and the arrangement of the plurality of accommodation regions 23 is very dense, the LED chips 12 of different light emitting colors or the LED chips 12 of specific intervals can be selected in batches, so as to perform current loop detection on the LED integrated units 22 in the plurality of accommodation regions 23 in batches. Therefore, the manufacturing apparatus 30 further comprises a welding selection control unit 37 for selecting a plurality of accommodation regions 23 of a preset pixel interval as welding objects of a welding program in the welding program.
[0057] Specifically, the voltage generator adjusts the magnitude of the directional voltage on the third electrode 231 and / or the fourth electrode 232 and / or the direction of the directional electric field of the third electrode 231 and / or the fourth electrode 232 in response to the adjustment instruction signal.
[0058] Optionally, in the present embodiment, the position adjustment mechanism can be an acoustic wave generator, which provides low-frequency acoustic waves to the driving backboard 21 and the LED integrated unit 22 in response to the adjustment instruction signal, so that the LED integrated unit 22 jumps in the accommodating area 23; or / and, the acoustic wave generator provides high-frequency acoustic waves to the driving backboard 21 and the LED integrated unit 22 in response to the adjustment instruction signal, so that the LED integrated unit 22 vibrates in the accommodating area 23. On the other hand, since the average density of the base 11 of the LED integrated unit 22 is greater than the average density of the LED wafer 12, the gravity of the LED integrated unit 22 will make the jumping or vibrating LED integrated unit 22 fall down, and by making the LED integrated unit 22 jump and vibrate multiple times, the LED integrated unit 22 will fall into the corresponding accommodating area 23.
[0059] Specifically, the acoustic wave generator includes acoustic waves of multiple frequency bands of long-wave first frequency band and short-wave second frequency band, wherein the first frequency band is used to stimulate the LED integrated unit 22 to jump in a large range, and the second frequency band is used to stimulate the LED integrated unit 22 to vibrate in a small range.
[0060] In another embodiment, the manufacturing device 30 further includes a suspension mechanism, which provides a suspension force to the plurality of LED integrated units 22, so that the plurality of LED integrated units 22 are suspended above the driving backboard 21.
[0061] Wherein, the conduction detection mechanism 36 is used to determine whether a current loop is formed between the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 through the LED integrated unit 22 after the LED integrated unit 22 is positioned into the accommodating area 23 and before the alternating welding current is generated, and if the current loop is not formed, a repositioning instruction signal is generated, the suspension mechanism changes the suspension force in response to the repositioning instruction signal, or the positioning mechanism 33 changes the positioning force of the LED integrated unit 22 in response to the repositioning instruction signal, or the alternating welding current is turned on again to melt the connection, so that the LED integrated unit 22 is moved out of the accommodating area 23.
[0062] Optionally, the suspension mechanism of the present embodiment includes an air floating system or / and a magnetic suspension system for reducing or offsetting the gravity of the LED integrated unit 22. Wherein, the magnetic suspension system can generate a uniform magnetic field, which can penetrate the driving backboard 21 and offset part of the gravity of the LED integrated unit 22, so that the LED integrated unit 22 is more easily suspended above the driving backboard 21.
[0063] Further, the manufacturing device 30 of the embodiment includes multiple working modes, and the manufacturing device 30 is connected with a controller, and the multiple working modes are switched under the control of the controller. Specifically, a first mode is that, within the tolerance range of the circuit trace, a certain size of electric field is generated between the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 by giving the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 a stable high voltage, and the direction and angle of the electric field can be changed by changing the direction of the voltage. A second mode is that, within the tolerance range of the circuit trace, high-frequency alternating current is given to the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232, and the alternating welding current forms a loop by the characteristic of the capacitor 113 to make the first solder between the first electrode 111 and the third electrode 231 and / or the second solder between the second electrode 112 and the fourth electrode 232 melt, thereby realizing the welding function. A third mode is that, the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 are given normal LED driving current, and the current and voltage conditions are detected by a sensor, and whether the LED integrated unit 22 is well connected with the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232 is judged according to the current and voltage information; and when it is judged that the welding is good, the manufacturing device 30 can record the welding condition and lock the accommodation area 23, and the welding operation is not performed on the accommodation area 23 in the next welding process.
[0064] The manufacturing device 30 of the application realizes the generation of electric field, welding, and detection on the third electrode 231 and the fourth electrode 232, and has a simple structure. On the other hand, the manufacturing device 30 of the application combines electromagnetic force and acoustic wave principle, can adjust the position of the LED integrated unit 22 in the accommodation area 23, and can perform multiple exploratory welding, thereby ensuring the yield of finished products.
[0065] The application further provides a manufacturing method of an LED display device, and the execution subject of the manufacturing method can be the manufacturing device 30 of the LED display device of the above embodiment, which is used to manufacture the LED display device 20 of the above embodiment. Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 which is a flowchart of an embodiment of the manufacturing method of the LED display device of the application.
