[0047] See also Figure 7 , a LCM display module vacuum full lamination process, based on the above-mentioned LCM display module vacuum full lamination device, including: S1 Liquid Optical Adhesive Bonding Preparation Stage: The display function, touch sensitivity and circuit connectivity of the LCM are tested, and defective products are eliminated. The original metal frame of the LCM is removed to expose the edge area that needs to be bonded. The cylinder 4 is started to drive the heating box 51 to descend, and the LCM is fixed by the cooperation of the suction cup group 56 and the electric clamp 12. RTV is coated on the edge of the LCM to form an internal sealing layer to prevent subsequent glue injection from overflowing. The LCM is placed inside the curing and drying equipment 1 and left to stand for 8 hours, waiting for the RTV to be completely cured, and the LCM function is re-tested to ensure that the disassembly and packaging process does not cause damage.

[0048] S2 Cleaning and Protection Treatment: Use plasma cleaning equipment to remove organic matter, oxides and dust on the surface of LCM to improve the bonding strength of the colloid. Apply RTV around the LCM to build a closed dam structure and define the liquid glue filling area. Perform independent functional testing on TP to ensure the accuracy of touch coordinates. Paste protective tape on the IR hole of TP to prevent contamination in subsequent processes. Visually inspect the surface of TP for scratches, foreign matter or optical defects.

[0049] S3 alignment and fit: The TP and LCM are preliminarily aligned by the electric clamp 12, and the error is controlled within ±0.1mm. The superimposed components are left to stand for 8 hours to preliminarily exhaust the interface air, and the edge of the LCM is wrapped with protective tape to prevent the colloid from overflowing and contaminating the surrounding area during the injection.

[0050] S4 liquid glue injection and curing: Start the injection long tube 7 to inject LOCA into the RTV dam. The amount of glue must accurately match the height of the step difference. After injection, let the component stand for 8 hours to wait for the initial solidification of the colloid. Put the component into the vacuum cavity and remove the bubbles in the colloid to avoid rainbow lines or dark spots in the display area.

[0051] S5 post-processing and detection: Remove the tape covering the edge to expose the bonding area, visually inspect whether the bonding interface is flat, free of glue overflow, burrs and optical defects, age it in a high temperature and high humidity environment for 24 hours to verify the weather resistance of the colloid, wipe the surface with alcohol using a dust-free cloth, check the cleanliness again, apply RTV a second time on the edges or weak areas to enhance structural reliability, and let it stand for 8 hours after sealing with RTV to ensure complete curing.

[0052] S6 solid optical adhesive bonding process stage: The display function, touch sensitivity and circuit connectivity of LCM in S5 post-processing and inspection are tested, and defective products are eliminated. Plasma cleaning or alcohol wiping is used to remove dust, oil and residue on the surface of LCM to ensure the cleanliness of the bonding surface. The TP is independently tested for touch coordinate accuracy, sensitivity and optical performance. IPA is used to clean the TP surface to prevent particulate matter from affecting the bonding quality.

[0053] S7 solid glue coating and pretreatment: OSA is uniformly applied on the TP bonding surface by pouring the long tube 7, and the thickness of the adhesive layer is controlled at 0.1mm-0.3mm.

[0054] S8 precision alignment and bonding: The glue-coated TP and LCM are stacked in a vacuum adsorption fixture and automatically corrected for offset with a CCD visual positioning system with an accuracy of ±5μm.

[0055] S9 curing and testing: Transfer the bonded components to the interior of the curing and drying equipment 1, and use 365nm wavelength ultraviolet irradiation, curing energy 800-1200mJ / cm², time 30 seconds to 60 seconds, visually inspect whether the bonding interface is flat, without glue overflow, burrs and optical abnormalities, and attach a protective film to isolate dust and avoid scratches during subsequent handling.

[0056] S10 final inspection and shipment: Retest the TP touch coordinate accuracy and LCM display effect, verify the integrity of the screen display function, including touch response and multi-area display consistency, spot check key indicators, yield ≥ 99.5%, package and store qualified products, and return or scrap unqualified products.

[0057] In S1 liquid optical adhesive bonding preparation stage, S2 cleaning and protection treatment, S3 alignment and bonding, S4 liquid adhesive injection and curing, S5 post-processing and inspection, S6 solid optical adhesive bonding treatment stage and S7 solid adhesive coating and pretreatment, LCM is liquid crystal module, RTV is room temperature vulcanized silicone rubber, TP is touch screen panel, IR hole is the infrared sensing hole on the outside of the touch screen panel, LOCA is liquid optical adhesive, IPA is isopropyl alcohol, and OSA is solid optical adhesive.

[0058] In S7 solid-state glue coating and pretreatment, the coated TP is placed inside the curing and drying equipment 1, and the temperature of the curing and drying equipment 1 is adjusted to 25°C ± 2°C. S8: In precise alignment and lamination, the pressure is 0.3 - 0.8 MPa, and the time is 30 - 60 seconds of pressure holding.

[0059] In this solution, LOCA and OSA are first respectively loaded into the top of the inner cavity of different heating boxes 51, and the heating boxes 51 are started to heat the two different glues. The LCM is placed on the top of the curing and drying equipment 1, and the electric fixture 12 is started to fix the LCM. When processing the LCM, the cylinder 4 is started to drive the heating box 51 and the suction cup group 56 to descend. The suction cup group 56 presses on the top of the LCM, and cooperates with the electric fixture 12 to fix the LCM to avoid shaking during processing. At the same time, the slide plate 52 is restricted. When the heating box 51 descends, the slide plate 52 rises inside the heating box 51, driving the horizontal shaft 61 and the gear 63 to mesh and rotate with the rack 64, and finally driving the stirring rod 62 to rotate to stir the LOCA and OSA in the inner cavity of the heating box 51. At the same time, the positions of LOCA and OSA are raised to avoid continuous heating of LOCA and OSA by the heating box 51 during use. Finally, the LOCA and OSA are pumped out for use through the perfusion long tube 7.

[0060] By combining the 30-second UV pre-curing of the curing and drying equipment adopted in the liquid optical glue lamination preparation stage of step S1 with the method of post-baking using the curing and drying equipment in step S9, the curing speed and the colloid strength are balanced, the operation difficulty and the skill requirements for operators are greatly reduced, thereby reducing the workpiece processing cycle and the manufacturing cost.

[0061] Through the added suction cup group 56, the LCM can be accurately adsorbed and fixed at multiple points, effectively suppressing the displacement deviation caused by vibration or external force during the processing. The fixing stiffness of the LCM is increased by more than 40% through the vacuum adsorption principle, ensuring that the lamination accuracy reaches the ±0.05 mm level. The linkage design of the slide plate 52 and the heating box 51 is adopted: when the suction cup group starts the fixing action, the slide plate synchronously triggers the glue lifting mechanism. This design keeps the relative position between the glue liquid level and the perfusion long tube 7 at the best extraction height all the time, avoiding the risk of flow interruption caused by the fluctuation of the glue liquid level in the traditional process, and shortening the continuous heating time of the heating box by 60%. The probability of glue thermal degradation is significantly reduced. The stirring system built in the slide plate 52 drives the gear 63 and the rack 64 transmission mechanism through the horizontal shaft 61, driving the three groups of spiral stirring rods 62 to perform three-dimensional disturbance at a speed of 120 rpm. This design makes the internal shear rate of the glue reach 0.8 / s, effectively suppressing the agglomeration of polymer chains, and can extend the gel time of the glue to more than 3 times that of the traditional process.
