[0025] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present application clearer and more understandable, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0028] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the present application, "a plurality" means two or more unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0029] As described in the background technology, in the traditional display panel manufacturing process, the light-emitting pixel patterning is usually achieved through a fine metal mask (FMM). FMM technology has become the current mainstream evaporation process solution due to its mature process system, high-precision alignment capability and rich mass production experience.

[0030] In the display panel evaporation process, the metal chamber of the evaporation equipment usually uses a peripheral pressing mechanism 11" to press the aligned substrate 20" and the mask 30", and balances heat conduction and mechanical stress by controlling the distance between the cooling plate 132" and the substrate 20". Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the existing evaporation equipment presses the edge area of ​​the substrate 20" through the peripheral pressing mechanism 11", so that after the substrate 20" and the mask 30" are pressed, there is a certain distance between the substrate 20" and the cooling plate 132". At this time, the edge warping area of ​​the substrate 20" will warp. When large-size panels are produced or high-utilization substrates are cut, the edge warping will aggravate the shadow effect during the evaporation process, causing the edge of the metal film layer to extend, thereby causing the display panel packaging to fail, affecting the display panel performance and product yield.

[0031] In the existing display panel evaporation process, in order to solve the problem of warping in the edge area of ​​​​the substrate 20", two technical solutions are mainly used: one is to reduce the gap between the substrate 20" and the cooling plate 132", but this solution has significant defects: after long-term evaporation operations, the cooling plate 132" is prone to sticking to the substrate 20", resulting in a decrease in yield; at the same time, the large-area contact between the cooling plate 132" and the substrate 20" will cause electrostatic damage defects, and the parallelism matching requirements between the mechanism and the mask 30" are strict, which greatly increases the risk of pressing and breaking during production. The second is to limit the arrangement position of the effective area of ​​the product to avoid the warped area at the edge of the substrate 20", but this method will significantly reduce the economic cutting utilization rate of the substrate 20", and cannot meet the current large-size display panel production needs for maximizing the utilization rate of the substrate 20".

[0032] See also Figures 3 to 7As shown in the figure, to solve the above problems, according to one aspect of the present application, an embodiment of the present application provides a display panel evaporation alignment device. The display panel evaporation alignment device is disposed in the metal evaporation chamber of the evaporation equipment and is used for aligning the substrate 20 and the mask 30. The display panel evaporation alignment device includes: a temperature-controlled magnetic adsorption platform 10, the temperature-controlled magnetic adsorption platform 10 includes a temperature-controlled magnetic adsorption component 13, a plurality of stage positioning pin components 11 and at least one anti-warpage support pin component 12. The temperature-controlled magnetic adsorption component 13 is movably disposed in the metal evaporation chamber, and the stage positioning pin components 11 and the anti-warpage support pin component 12 are both disposed on the temperature-controlled magnetic adsorption component 13; wherein, when the substrate 20 and the mask 30 are aligned, the position of the stage positioning pin component 11 corresponds to the edge area of the substrate 20, and the stage positioning pin component 11 is used to apply a first pressing force to the edge area of the substrate 20 to press the substrate 20 and the mask 30 together and keep the substrate 20 at a preset distance from the temperature-controlled magnetic adsorption component 13; after the edge area of the substrate 20 is subjected to the first pressing force, an edge warping-prone area 21 is correspondingly formed, and the position of the anti-warpage support pin component 12 corresponds to the edge warping-prone area 21, and is used to apply a second pressing force to the edge warping-prone area 21 to offset the warping of the substrate 20 caused by the first pressing force. The display panel evaporation alignment device provided in this embodiment can press the aligned substrate 20 and the mask 30 together through a plurality of stage positioning pin components 11, and maintain a heat dissipation interval with a preset distance between the temperature-controlled magnetic adsorption component and the substrate 20. At the same time, by setting the anti-warpage support pin component 12, the temperature-controlled magnetic adsorption platform 10 can offset the warping of the substrate 20 caused by the pressing of the stage positioning pin component 11 through the anti-warpage support pin component 12, thereby significantly improving the evaporation shadow effect and enhancing the uniformity of the evaporated film layer. Moreover, through the non-contact design between the substrate 20 and the temperature-controlled magnetic adsorption component, the risks of adhesive sheet and electrostatic damage caused by traditional mechanical pressing can be avoided, so that while the substrate 20 obtains stable support, the maximum utilization of the effective area of the substrate 20 is realized, taking into account both the production yield and economic benefits.

[0033] It should be noted that the edge warping-prone area 21 in this embodiment refers to a specific deformation area generated at the edge of the substrate 20 due to uneven distribution of the pressing force when the substrate 20 and the mask 30 are pressed together only by applying the first pressing force through the stage positioning pin component 11.

[0034] It can be understood that in this solution, the edge area of the substrate 20 specifically refers to the inner transition area between the outside of the effective display area of the substrate 20 and the physical edge of the substrate, that is, the edge area of the substrate 20 has the outermost circuit trace of the effective display area of the substrate 20 as the inner boundary and the physical cutting edge of the substrate 20 as the outer boundary.

[0035] In a specific embodiment, the first pressing force in this embodiment is directed towards the mask 30, and the magnitude of the first pressing force is a, where 10N ≤ a ≤ 13N. It should be noted that the first pressing force in this embodiment refers to the mechanical pressure applied by the stage positioning pin assembly 11 to the substrate 20, perpendicular to the plane of the substrate 20 and directed towards the mask 30.

[0036] In some embodiments, controlling the magnitude of the first pressing force within the range of 10N to 13N can not only ensure a stable pressing contact between the substrate 20 and the mask 30, avoiding the generation of gaps during the evaporation process that may cause evaporation shadows, but also prevent excessive deformation or breakage of the substrate 20 due to excessive pressure.

[0037] In a specific embodiment, the second pressing force in this embodiment is directed towards the mask 30, and the magnitude of the second pressing force is b, where 0.8N ≤ b ≤ 5N. It should be noted that the second pressing force in this embodiment refers to the compensatory mechanical pressure applied by the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 to the edge region of the substrate 20, perpendicular to the plane of the substrate 20 and directed towards the mask 30.

[0038] In some embodiments, controlling the magnitude of the second pressing force within the range of 0.8N to 5N can precisely offset the warping deformation of the edge of the substrate 20 caused by the first pressing force, ensuring good contact between the edge region of the substrate 20 and the mask 30, and at the same time avoiding reverse deformation of the substrate 20 due to excessive compensation pressure.

[0039] See Figure 3 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the magnitude of the preset distance in this embodiment is c, where 1mm ≤ c ≤ 1.5mm. The preset distance in this embodiment refers to the constant spacing between the upper surface of the substrate 20 and the lower surface of the temperature-controlled magnetic adsorption platform 10.

[0040] In some embodiments, controlling the magnitude of the preset distance within the range of 1mm to 1.5mm can ensure that the substrate 20 obtains sufficient heat conduction and cooling effect, maintain a non-contact state between the substrate 20 and the temperature-controlled magnetic adsorption platform 10 to avoid damage to the surface of the substrate 20, and at the same time provide an operating space for the compensatory movement of the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12.

[0041] See Figure 4As shown, in a specific embodiment, the display panel evaporation alignment device further includes: a substrate carrying mechanism 40, which is arranged in the metal evaporation chamber and used to carry the substrate 20; a mask carrying mechanism 50, which is movably arranged in the metal evaporation chamber and located below the substrate carrying mechanism 40, and used to carry the mask 30 and align the mask 30 with the substrate 20; the temperature-controlled magnetic suction component 13 is located on the side of the substrate carrying mechanism 40 away from the mask carrying mechanism 50. When the substrate 20 and the mask 30 are aligned, the multiple stage positioning pin components 11 in this embodiment are arranged at intervals along the edge contour direction of the substrate 20. The multiple stage positioning pin components 11 are arranged at intervals along the edge contour direction of the substrate 20, so that the first pressing force forms a force ring at the edge of the substrate 20, ensuring the overall pressing stability between the substrate 20 and the mask 30, while avoiding local stress concentration.

[0042] It should be noted that the substrate carrying mechanism 40 in this embodiment refers to a special support structure arranged in the metal evaporation chamber, which is used to carry the substrate 20 during the evaporation process. It specifically includes but is not limited to a vacuum adsorption platform, a mechanical clamping device or an electrostatic chuck, etc., which, through non-contact support or partial contact design, physically avoids the evaporation area of ​​the substrate 20 while ensuring the position stability of the substrate 20 to avoid blocking the deposition path of the evaporation material; the mask carrying mechanism refers to a precision positioning device movably arranged in the metal evaporation chamber, which is used to carry the mask 30 and realize its graphic alignment with the substrate 20. It specifically includes a high-precision linear drive module, a fine-tuning alignment mechanism and a mask fixing assembly, which adjusts the position of the mask 30 through closed-loop control to ensure that its graphic opening area is accurately matched with the substrate 20. Among them, the mask carrying mechanism 50 avoids the evaporation beam path during the evaporation process to avoid mechanism interference.

[0043] See also Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the substrate 20 in this embodiment is a rectangular substrate, and the rectangular substrate has a first long side, a first short side, a second long side and a second short side arranged in sequence, and a plurality of stage positioning pin assemblies 11 are arranged at intervals along the edge contour direction of the first long side, the first short side, the second long side and the second short side; the plurality of stage positioning pin assemblies 11 are arranged at intervals along the edge contour direction of the aligned rectangular substrate, so that the first pressing force forms a force ring at the edge of the substrate 20, thereby suppressing the bending deformation caused by the large span of the long side area and avoiding the local warping caused by insufficient support of the short side area. Of course, in other embodiments, the substrate 20 in this embodiment can also be other shapes.

[0044] In some embodiments, the substrate 20 in this embodiment is made of glass. Of course, in other embodiments, the substrate 20 in this embodiment may also be made of other materials.

[0045] In some embodiments, the number of the stage positioning pin assemblies 11 in this embodiment is d, where 10 ≤ d ≤ 30. Setting the number of the stage positioning pin assemblies 11 to be from 10 to 30 can ensure the stable positioning of the substrate 20, reduce the influence of edge warping on the evaporation coating accuracy, and improve the alignment yield.

[0046] In some embodiments, e stage positioning pin assemblies 11 are arranged at equal intervals in the edge contour directions of the first long side and the second long side in this embodiment, where 3 ≤ e ≤ 10. Setting the number of the stage positioning pin assemblies 11 arranged at equal intervals in the edge contour directions of the first long side and the second long side to be from 3 to 10 can evenly distribute the positioning binding force, effectively inhibit the warping deformation of the substrate edge, and at the same time avoid the stress concentration problem caused by over-constraint, improving the evaporation coating alignment accuracy and yield.

[0047] In some embodiments, f stage positioning pin assemblies 11 are arranged at equal intervals in the edge contour directions of the first short side and the second short side in this embodiment, where 2 ≤ f ≤ 5. Setting the number of the stage positioning pin assemblies 11 arranged at equal intervals in the edge contour directions of the first short side and the second short side to be from 2 to 5 can ensure the substrate positioning stability. While inhibiting the edge warping, it can avoid the structural complexity and cost increase caused by too many positioning points.

[0048] See Figure 4 As shown, in some specific embodiments, the number of the stage positioning pin assemblies 11 in this embodiment is 20. 8 stage positioning pin assemblies 11 are arranged at equal intervals in the edge contour directions of the first long side and the second long side respectively, and 2 stage positioning pin assemblies 11 are arranged at equal intervals in the edge contour directions of the first short side and the second short side respectively. By arranging 8 equally spaced stage positioning pin assemblies 11 on each of the two long sides, the long sides of the substrate 20 can be fully supported. By arranging 2 positioning pin assemblies on each of the two short sides, while meeting the positioning requirements of the short sides, it can avoid over-constraining the short sides of the rectangular substrate.

[0049] See Figure 4 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the number of the anti-warping support pin assemblies 12 in this embodiment is multiple. When the substrate is aligned with the mask template, the multiple anti-warping support pin assemblies 12 are arranged at intervals along the edge contour direction of the substrate 20. By arranging the multiple anti-warping support pin assemblies 12 at intervals along the edge contour direction of the aligned substrate 20, each anti-warping support pin assembly 12 can specifically offset the local deformation in the edge area of the substrate 20. While effectively eliminating the edge warping phenomenon caused by traditional peripheral pressing, it maintains the overall flatness of the substrate 20, thereby significantly improving the deposition uniformity of the evaporation coating material in the edge area of the substrate 20 and solving the evaporation coating shadow problem caused by edge warping in the prior art.

[0050] See Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a plurality of anti-warpage support pin assemblies 12 in this embodiment are arranged at intervals along the edge profiles of the first short side and the second short side; by arranging a plurality of anti-warpage support pin assemblies 12 at intervals along the edge profiles of the first short side and the second short side, local warpage deformation caused by the pressing of the stage positioning pin assembly 11 on the short side of the substrate 20 can be effectively offset, and the warpage amount in the short side region of the rectangular substrate can be significantly reduced.

[0051] In some embodiments, the number of the anti-warpage support pin assemblies 12 in this embodiment is g, where g≥4; setting the number of the anti-warpage support pin assemblies 12 to be greater than or equal to 4 can enable the substrate to be evenly supported at multiple points during the evaporation process, ensure precise alignment between the mask plate and the substrate, and improve the evaporation yield and product performance of the display panel.

[0052] In some embodiments, h stage positioning pin assemblies are arranged at equal intervals along the edge profiles of the first short side and the second short side in this embodiment, where h≥2. Setting the number of the stage positioning pin assemblies arranged at equal intervals along the edge profiles of the first short side and the second short side to be greater than or equal to 2 can form symmetric constraints on the short sides of the substrate, cooperate with the long side positioning to jointly suppress the overall warpage deformation, and ensure the stable alignment accuracy between the substrate and the mask plate during the evaporation process.

[0053] See Figure 4 As shown, in some specific embodiments, the number of the anti-warpage support pin assemblies 12 in this embodiment is 4, and 2 anti-warpage support pin assemblies 12 are arranged at equal intervals along the edge profiles of the first short side and the second short side of the rectangular substrate respectively; by arranging 2 equally spaced anti-warpage support pin assemblies 12 on two opposite short sides of the rectangular substrate respectively, symmetric compensation force application points can be formed on the rectangular substrate, so as to effectively cover the main deformation positions in the short side region of the rectangular substrate. Each anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 applies an accurate compensation force according to the local deformation characteristics of its corresponding region, enabling the short side region of the rectangular substrate to obtain sufficient deformation compensation, significantly reducing the edge warpage amount of the rectangular substrate, and at the same time avoiding stress superposition caused by too dense support points.

[0054] In a specific embodiment, the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 in this embodiment is located between two adjacent stage positioning pin assemblies 11. It should be noted that the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 being located between two adjacent stage positioning pin assemblies 11 means that the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 and the stage positioning pin assembly 11 are arranged alternately in the edge region of the substrate 20, and the setting position of the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 is in the perpendicular direction of the line connecting the two stage positioning pin assemblies 11.

[0055] In some embodiments, the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 is arranged between two adjacent stage positioning pin assemblies 11, which enables the support pin assembly to precisely act on the maximum warpage area generated after the stage positioning pin assembly 11 applies force, and at the same time forms a triangular stable support structure to ensure the balanced distribution of the deformation compensation force in each area of the edge of the substrate 20.

[0056] See Figure 3 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the temperature-controlled magnetic attraction assembly in this embodiment includes a magnetic attraction plate assembly 131. When the substrate 20 is aligned with the mask plate 30, the magnetic attraction plate assembly 131 is used to apply a magnetic attraction force pointing to the substrate 20 to the mask plate 30, so that the mask plate 30 fits with the substrate 20. It should be noted that the magnetic attraction plate assembly 131 in this embodiment refers to an electromagnetic adsorption device integrated in the temperature-controlled magnetic attraction assembly. After the substrate 20 and the mask plate 30 are aligned, the magnetic attraction plate assembly 131 generates a gradient magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the mask plate 30 and pointing in the direction of the substrate 20, so that the mask plate 30 is subjected to a uniformly distributed magnetic attraction force and actively fits with the substrate 20. Among them, the mask plate 30 in this embodiment is a metal mask plate with magnetic response.

[0057] In a specific embodiment, when the substrate 20 is aligned with the mask plate 30, the temperature-controlled magnetic attraction platform 10 has a pressing state and an avoidance state; when the temperature-controlled magnetic attraction platform 10 is in the pressing state, both the stage positioning pin assembly 11 and the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 are in contact with the side of the substrate 20 facing away from the mask plate 30, and the stage positioning pin assembly 11 applies a first pressing force to the edge area of the substrate 20, and the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 applies a second pressing force to the easily warped area of the edge of the substrate 20; when the temperature-controlled magnetic attraction platform 10 is in the avoidance state, both the stage positioning pin assembly 11 and the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 are separated from the substrate 20 and avoid the substrate. It should be noted that the pressing state and the avoidance state of the temperature-controlled magnetic attraction platform 10 in this embodiment refer to two working modes of the temperature-controlled magnetic attraction platform 10. In the pressing state, the stage positioning pin assembly 11 and the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 on the temperature-controlled magnetic attraction platform 10 are respectively in contact with the upper surface of the substrate 20. Among them, the stage positioning pin assembly 11 applies a first pressing force perpendicular to the plane of the substrate 20 and pointing to the mask plate 30 to the edge area of the substrate 20, and the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 applies a second pressing force in the same direction to the easily warped area 21 of the edge of the substrate 20; in the avoidance state, the stage positioning pin assembly 11 and the anti-warpage support pin assembly 12 maintain a separation distance from the substrate 20 to achieve process avoidance.

[0058] In some embodiments, the switching between the pressing state and the avoiding state of the temperature-controlled magnetic suction platform 10 in this embodiment is achieved by lifting and lowering the temperature-controlled magnetic suction platform 10, wherein the first pressing force is used to maintain the precise alignment of the substrate 20 and the mask plate 30, and the second pressing force is dedicated to compensating for the edge deformation of the substrate 20. Through the synergistic effect of the first pressing force and the second pressing force, it can be ensured that the substrate 20 has a higher flatness during the evaporation process.

[0059] See also Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the temperature-controlled magnetic suction component in this embodiment also includes a cooling plate component 132, and the cooling plate component 132 is arranged on the magnetic suction plate component 131. When the substrate 20 and the mask 30 are aligned, the cooling plate component 132 is located on the side of the magnetic suction plate component 131 close to the substrate 20, and is spaced apart from the substrate 20, for temperature regulation of the substrate 20 and the mask 30; when the temperature-controlled magnetic suction platform 10 is in a pressed state, the cooling plate component 132 is spaced apart from the substrate 20 by a preset distance. It should be noted that the cooling plate component 132 in this embodiment refers to an active temperature control system integrated in the temperature-controlled magnetic suction component. In the pressed state, the cooling plate component 132 and the substrate 20 maintain a preset spacing of 0.5~1.5mm to form a non-contact heat conduction area.

The elastic reset mechanism 123 is pressed by The head assembly 122 applies a second pressing force to the substrate 20; by slidably arranging the pressure head assembly 122 on the connecting base 121, and making the two ends of the elastic reset mechanism 123 respectively abut against the connecting base 121 and the pressure head assembly 122, the elastic reset mechanism 123 can apply a second pressing force to the substrate 20 through the pressure head assembly 122, and the second pressing force can offset the warping deformation of the edge of the substrate 20, thereby significantly improving the overall flatness of the substrate 20 and the uniformity of the film layer in the edge area during the evaporation process.

[0061] It should be noted that the pressing head assembly 122 in this embodiment forms a sliding fit with the connecting base 121 through a linear guide rail.

By reusing the groove resources of the existing device, the influence of additional machining of the groove on the structural integrity of the device can be avoided, and at the same time, the refitting construction period is significantly shortened.

[0064] In some embodiments, the positioning protrusion 1212 in this embodiment has a side positioning surface, and the positioning protrusion 1212 in this embodiment is limited by cooperating with the groove through the side positioning surface.

By passing the fixing screws through the fixing holes 1211 and screwing them with the screw holes, accurate positioning and fixation of the connecting base 121 in the original coordinate system of the device can be achieved.
