Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of printed display technology, and more specifically, relates to a method and system for online control of deformation of an air-floating platform substrate. Background Technology
[0002] The novel inkjet printing technology for displays uses additive manufacturing to deposit a solution into pixel pits, forming luminescent pixels and encapsulation films. Compared to traditional vacuum evaporation processes, it effectively avoids the waste of solvents and solutes. In particular, inkjet printing allows for free patterning, making it especially suitable for large-size panels. One of the key steps in inkjet printing manufacturing of large-size flexible panels is the air-floating transport of the flexible substrate. Vibration and deformation during transport directly affect printing accuracy. Detecting and controlling the accuracy of air-floating transport during the process can significantly improve the yield of inkjet printing systems, facilitating the mass production application of inkjet printing technology in the field of new displays. This is a goal that global panel manufacturers and research institutions urgently need to achieve.
[0003] Air-floating transport of large-size flexible substrates offers advantages such as non-contact operation and light load, but it also introduces new challenges and problems. An existing patent, CN202311618114, describes a splicing air-floating platform and inkjet printing equipment for display panel processing. However, it only proposes a novel structural design scheme without providing corresponding detection and control solutions. Patent CN115435742A describes a continuous online warpage rapid measurement device for substrate glass. This method proposes a structural design scheme to measure the deformation of freely suspended glass substrates, but clearly, this method cannot be applied to moving air-floating substrates.
[0004] Further research revealed that the technologies designed in existing patents and literature still have the following shortcomings:
[0005] 1. For large-size flexible glass substrates transported by air flotation, existing mechanical designs are only suitable for substrates in a free-floating state and cannot be applied in this scenario.
[0006] 2. For high-precision air flotation conveying scenarios, the stability and reliability of air flotation conveying are also key indicators. A complete closed-loop control scheme is needed to ensure accuracy and improve the adaptability of the air flotation platform, which is a point that has not been addressed in the existing solutions.
[0007] 3. Existing solutions are mostly structural designs and improvements of air flotation platforms. These solutions are highly targeted and difficult to apply in practice. There is no detection and control solution that does not rely excessively on the structure and can be easily applied in various scenarios. Summary of the Invention

[0039] In summary, compared with the prior art, the technical solutions conceived by this invention have the following main advantages:
[0040] 1. This invention proposes an online method for controlling the deformation of an air-float platform substrate. By simplifying the complex dynamic system of air-float, it provides a convenient framework for the design of the control system. Air-float systems are typically multi-degree-of-freedom systems, and their dynamic behavior can be very complex. Considering that the vibration modes of this system are usually nonlinear and coupled, this invention proposes to treat the entire air film covering the target substrate as an elastic foundation. By fitting and constructing the air film stiffness distribution function and combining it with orthogonal functions satisfying boundary conditions, the mass matrix and stiffness matrix of the air film-substrate assembly are obtained. Based on the mass matrix and stiffness matrix, the modal shape functions of n air film-substrate assemblies are calculated. In other words, this invention proposes to simplify the motion (or vibration) of a complex multi-degree-of-freedom system into a series of independent, individually analyzeable and controllable "modal" vibration modes through modal decomposition. Each mode is an inherent natural vibration pattern of the system, with independent natural frequency, mode shape, and amplitude. Furthermore, by constructing a modal superposition equation, the change in substrate height at each target point is determined, thereby controlling the substrate deformation online. Therefore, this invention enables online control of the deformation of the air-floating platform substrate in actual printing scenarios without relying on the platform structure.
[0041] 2. This invention proposes a method for constructing an air film stiffness distribution function. Specifically, it measures the air film stiffness of each independently supplied air-bearing block of an air-bearing platform; then, it uses the air film stiffness and coordinate position of each air-bearing block to perform function fitting, obtaining the air film stiffness distribution function k(x,y) of the overall air film covered by the target substrate. Here, the air film stiffness at each position within each air-bearing block is consistent, while the air film stiffness at the gaps between air-bearing blocks is zero. This method is applicable to air-bearing platform systems of arbitrary arrangement, area, and structure, achieving equivalent modeling of the air-bearing platform.
[0042] 3. This invention proposes a preferred method for determining n modal shape functions based on two matrices. Specifically, it uses the mass matrix and stiffness matrix of the air-film substrate assembly to determine the set of natural frequencies of the target substrate in the air-floating state and the set of modal shape functions with respect to coordinate position. Then, it selects the n modal shape functions corresponding to the n smallest natural frequencies from the set of modal shape functions. This method ensures the effective implementation of online control. This method can flexibly determine the modal shape functions according to the target detection accuracy requirements, thereby reducing measurement costs and computational scale, and is applicable to various application scenarios.

Detailed Implementation
[0050] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0051] Example 1
[0052] A method for online control of substrate deformation of an air-floating platform, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes:
[0053] During inkjet printing, the change data of substrate height at m preset measurement points are collected in real time. Based on the change data of the height at each measurement point and the values of n mode shape functions at that measurement point, a modal superposition equation is constructed. Based on the modal superposition equation of all measurement points, the set of modal time coordinates η1(t), η2(t), ..., η at the acquisition time t is obtained by solving the system of equations. n (t); Based on the time coordinate set and the values of the n mode shape functions at each target point, the change data of the substrate height at the target point are obtained;
[0054] Closed-loop control is performed based on the change data of the substrate's flight height at all target points to achieve online regulation of the deformation of the air-floating platform substrate.
[0055] The n mode shape functions are predetermined in the following way:
[0056] The modal shape functions of n air-film-substrate assemblies are predetermined and determined as follows: the entire air film covered by the target substrate is regarded as an elastic foundation. The air film stiffness distribution function is constructed by fitting and combined with orthogonal functions that satisfy the boundary conditions to obtain the mass matrix and stiffness matrix of the air-film-substrate assembly. The modal shape functions of n air-film-substrate assemblies are calculated based on the mass matrix and stiffness matrix.
[0057] Online control is performed by pre-setting n modal vibration functions. Existing technologies often use manual initial adjustments for air flotation platforms. Under the influence of factors such as platform flatness and changes in air supply pressure, the leveling of air flotation is cumbersome and cannot adaptively and actively control the air flotation state.
[0058] In addition, there are many factors that cause substrate deformation, including the different thicknesses of the gas film beneath the target substrate, which lead to different deformations.
[0059] Regarding the selection of the number and location of measuring points, such as Figure 2 As shown, the following principles should be followed:
[0060] 1) The number of measurement points should be greater than the number of modes selected; it is recommended to select ≥4 modes.
[0061] 2) The location of the measuring points should avoid the nodes of the mode shape function; the nodes are the W modes of each order. i The zeros of the function (x,y);
[0062] 3) Measurement points should be selected from asymmetrical points on the board as much as possible, and the measurement points should be distributed as widely as possible;
[0063] 4) The more modes selected, the more accurate the reconstruction. The specific number of modes selected should be determined through actual experiments in combination with the target accuracy requirements.
[0064] This embodiment presents a closed-loop control scheme. Displacement data from various measuring points is acquired. The PC, based on stored modal functions and corresponding algorithms, combines the measured data to obtain an estimate of the deformation of the entire surface. Control commands are then sent based on the deformation to regulate the actuators, thereby controlling the deformation of the air-floating platform. Displacement sensor detection is performed in real time, forming a closed-loop feedback loop. One implementation method is as follows: Figure 3 As shown,
[0065] As a preferred implementation, the n modal shape functions are preferably determined in the following manner:
[0066] Measure the air film stiffness of each independently supplied air flotation block of the air flotation platform;
[0067] The air film stiffness and coordinate position of each air float block are used to perform function fitting to obtain the air film stiffness distribution function k(x,y) of the overall air film covered by the target substrate. Among them, the air film stiffness corresponding to each position in each air float block is consistent, and the air film stiffness corresponding to the gap between air float blocks is zero.
[0068] Based on the air film stiffness distribution function and combined with the orthogonal function that satisfies the boundary conditions, the mass matrix and stiffness matrix of the air film-substrate assembly are calculated to determine the set of natural frequencies of the target substrate under air-float state and the set of mode shape functions with respect to the coordinate position. Then, the n mode shape functions corresponding to the first n smallest natural frequencies are selected from the set of mode shape functions. A natural frequency and its corresponding mode shape function constitute a mode.
[0069] Once all natural frequencies and mode shapes are calculated, the natural frequency results and mode shape data are stored in ascending order of natural frequency. A natural frequency and its corresponding mode shape constitute a mode. The mode shapes corresponding to the first n smallest natural frequencies are selected for online control.
[0070] This can be used as a preferred implementation method, such as Figure 4As shown, the air film stiffness of the air float is measured by using each air float to support and suspend substrates of different thicknesses or by adding a weight load to the suspended glass substrate; wherein, the air film stiffness of each air float is calculated by the following formula:
[0071]
[0072] In the formula, ΔG represents the change in gravity between the two measurements, and Δh represents the change in the height of the substrate between the two measurements.
[0073] As a preferred embodiment, the element in the i-th row and j-th column of the mass matrix M of the air-film-substrate assembly is:
[0074]
[0075] The element in the i-th row and j-th column of the stiffness matrix K is:
[0076]
[0077] In the formula, ρ is the density of the target substrate, and H is the thickness of the target substrate; when the substrate is unilaterally adsorbed during transport, φ i Let φ be the i-th modal function of the cantilever plate. j (x,y) represents the j-th order mode function of the cantilever plate; when it is bilateral adsorption, φ i Let φ be the i-th order mode function of a plate with fixed opposite sides and free opposite sides. j (x,y) represents the j-th mode function of the plate with fixed and free sides; a and b represent the length and width of the substrate, respectively, and ▽ represents the Laplace operator;
[0078] By solving the formula: The set of natural frequencies λ1,…,λ is obtained. i ,…,λ n and its corresponding set of mode functions W1(x,y),…,W i (x,y),…W n (x,y).
[0079] As a preferred implementation, the modal superposition equations corresponding to each measuring point are as follows:
[0080] η1(t)W1(x1,y1)+η2(t)W2(x1,y1)+...+η n (t)W n (x1,y1)=w(x1,y1)
[0081] η1(t)W1(x2,y2)+η2(t)W2(x2,y2)+...+η n (t)W n (x2,y2)=w(x2,y2)
[0082]
[0083] η1(t)W1(x m ,y m )+η2(t)W2(x m ,y m )+...+η n (t)W n (x m ,y m )=w(x m ,y m )
[0084] In the formula, w(x1,y1), w(x2,y2), ..., w(x m ,y m W1(x1,y1), W2(x1,y1), and W2(x1,y1) represent the changes in the substrate height at different measuring points, respectively. n (x1, y1) represent the values of different mode shape functions at the first measuring point; W1(x2, y2), W2(x2, y2), W n (x2, y2) represent the values of different mode shape functions at the second measuring point; W1(x m ,y m W2(x) m ,y m W n (x m ,y m ) represent the values of different mode shape functions at the m-th measuring point.
[0085] For example, target point (x) a ,y a The deformation amount w(x) a ,y a )for:
[0086] w(x a ,y a )=η1(t)W1(x a ,y a )+η2(t)W2(x a ,y a )+...+η n (t)W n (x a ,y a )
[0087] The entire surface of the substrate is divided into equally spaced grids, and the deformation of the entire surface can be obtained by calculating the deformation of each grid node.
[0088] This embodiment treats the entire air film covering the target substrate as an elastic foundation and models and constructs modal superposition equations. Theoretically, any solution can be achieved through a set of orthogonal bases. Modal decoupling is an intrinsic property of the system. This embodiment, starting from the foundation of modal theory, proposes a superior operation process and calculation method for this scenario.
