[0001] This invention relates to light-shielding components. Background Technology

[0002] Previously, as a light-shielding component, there are known light-shielding components that have an optical multilayer film on the surface of a substrate (for example, see Patent Document 1 below).

[0003] The substrate contains resin. The optical multilayer film consists of a light-absorbing layer and a dielectric layer. The light-absorbing layer and the dielectric layer contain metal or metal oxide.

[0004] Existing technical documents Patent documents Patent Document 1: International Publication Publication No. 2021 / 193652 Summary of the Invention

[0005] The problem that the invention aims to solve In Patent Document 1, most of the light incident on the light-shielding member is absorbed by the light-absorbing layer, while on the other hand, there is a case where a portion of the incident light is reflected.

[0006] However, in the light-shielding member of Patent Document 1, when viewed in cross-section along the thickness direction, the upper surface of the light-shielding member is orthogonal to the side surface of the light-shielding member. Therefore, depending on the angle of light incidence, there is an undesirable situation where light reflected from the side surface of the light-shielding member can intrude into the object being shielded.

[0007] The present invention provides a light-shielding component that suppresses light intrusion into the object to be shaded by reflection.

[0038] Figure 10 This illustrates a modified example of the light-shielding member of the present invention (a light-shielding member in which the inner peripheral surface 15 includes the outer surface of the core layer 2). Detailed Implementation

[0039] 1. First Implementation Method Reference Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 The first embodiment of the light-shielding member of the present invention will be described.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the light-shielding member 1 has a generally elliptical shape when viewed from above. Additionally, as... Figure 2 As shown, it has a roughly trapezoidal shape in side view, with the width narrowing from one side of the thickness direction to the other side of the thickness direction.

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, the light-shielding member 1 has a first main surface 11, a second main surface 12, an outer peripheral surface 13, and a through hole 14.

[0042] The first principal surface 11 is a flat surface.

[0043] The second main surface 12 is disposed opposite the first main surface 11 on the other side of the first main surface 11 in the thickness direction, spaced apart from it. The second main surface 12 is parallel to the first main surface 11. The second main surface 12 is a flat surface.

[0044] It should be noted that a flat surface refers to a surface that appears flat, such as allowing for minute bumps and undulations of less than 15 μm (the same applies below).

[0045] The outer peripheral surface 13 is continuous with the peripheral edges of the first main surface 11 and the second main surface 12. The outer peripheral surface 13 has a conical shape in which the area in the surface direction orthogonal to the thickness direction decreases from the first main surface 11 toward the second main surface 12. More specifically, the outer peripheral surface 13 has a conical shape in which the area in the surface direction changes linearly with respect to the thickness direction (linear conical shape). The outer peripheral surface 13 is a flat surface.

[0046] When viewed in cross-section along the thickness direction, the angle α formed by the first principal surface 11 and the outer peripheral surface 13 is an acute angle. The angle α is, for example, 15° to 70°, and preferably 25° to 60°.

[0047] If the angle α is within the above range, it is possible to further suppress the intrusion of light reflected from the outer peripheral surface 13 of the light-shielding member 1 into the light-shielding object (described later).

[0048] It should be noted that angle α is calculated based on the contour of the outer peripheral surface 13 obtained using a laser microscope. Specifically, firstly, the slope (slope function) of the straight line connecting the outer peripheral edge of the second principal surface 12 to the inner peripheral edge of the second principal surface 12 is calculated, and then converted into an angle (first angle) using the arctangent. Next, the slope (slope function) of the straight line connecting the peripheral edge of the first principal surface 11 to the peripheral edge of the second principal surface 12 is calculated, and then converted into an angle (second angle) using the arctangent. Finally, based on the second angle, the first angle is corrected, and angle α is calculated.

[0049] Furthermore, when viewed in cross-section along the thickness direction, the angle β formed by the second main surface 12 and the outer peripheral surface 13 is an obtuse angle. The angle β is, for example, 110° to 165°, and preferably 120° to 155°.

[0050] It should be noted that the sum of angle α and angle β is 180°.

[0051] The through hole 14 extends through the thickness of the light-shielding member 1. By inserting a fixing member (not shown) through the through hole 14, the light-shielding member 1 can be rotated about the fixing member as a central axis. By rotating the light-shielding member 1, a light-shielding posture or a light-entry posture can be adopted relative to the light-shielding object (described later).

[0052] The through hole 14 has an inner circumferential surface 15.

[0053] The through hole 14 is a circular hole. If the through hole 14 is a circular hole, the rotational flexibility can be improved. The inner diameter of the through hole 14 is, for example, 50 μm to 1000 μm, preferably 100 μm to 500 μm.

[0054] Furthermore, the first main surface 11, the second main surface 12, the outer peripheral surface 13, and the inner peripheral surface 15 are the outer surfaces of the low-reflection layer 4, which will be described later.

The resin layer 3 covers the first main surface 21, the second main surface 22, the outer peripheral surface 23, and the inner peripheral surface 25 of the core. The resin layer 3 improves durability.

[0108] In the resin composition, the pigment content is, for example, 0.1% to 20% by mass, preferably 0.5% to 10% by mass.

[0109] In addition, the proportion of pigment relative to 100 parts by weight of resin is, for example, 1 to 50 parts by weight, preferably 5 to 30 parts by weight.

[0110] Examples of filler materials include acrylic microgels and silica. Acrylic microgels are preferred as filler materials.

[0111] The average particle size of the filler material is determined by laser diffraction scattering method, and is, for example, 1.0 μm or more, preferably 5.0 μm or more, and also, for example, 20.0 μm or less.

[0112] In the resin composition, the content of the filler material is, for example, 1% to 50% by mass, preferably 5% to 30% by mass.

[0113] The proportion of filler material relative to 100 parts by weight of resin is, for example, 5 to 50 parts by weight, preferably 10 to 40 parts by weight.

[0114] Furthermore, as detailed later, in the fourth process, when the low-reflection layer 4 is configured by electrodeposition coating, the low-reflection layer 4 contains the material of the metal layer M3.

[0115] Examples of metals and their oxides include titanium, nickel, chromium, niobium, and their oxides.

[0116] In the light-shielding member 1, it is preferable that the length D between the resin outer peripheral surface 33 and the core outer peripheral surface 23 is longer than the length E between the resin inner peripheral surface 35 and the core inner peripheral surface 25. Specifically, the ratio of the length D between the resin outer peripheral surface 33 and the core outer peripheral surface 23 to the length E between the resin inner peripheral surface 35 and the core inner peripheral surface 25 (length D / length E) is, for example, greater than 1, preferably 1.5 or more, and, for example, less than 50.

[0117] If the length D between the outer peripheral surface 33 of the resin and the outer peripheral surface 23 of the core is longer than the length E between the inner peripheral surface 35 of the resin and the inner peripheral surface 25 of the core, then the durability of the outer peripheral surface 13 of the light-shielding member 1 can be further improved.

[0118] Furthermore, in the light-shielding member 1, it is preferable that the length F between the outer peripheral surface 13 and the core outer peripheral surface 23 is longer than the length G between the core inner peripheral surface 25 and the inner peripheral surface 13. The ratio of the length F between the outer peripheral surface 13 and the core outer peripheral surface 23 to the length G between the core inner peripheral surface 25 and the inner peripheral surface 13 (length F / length G) is, for example, greater than 1, preferably more than 1.5, and also, for example, less than 50.

[0119] If the length F between the outer peripheral surface 13 and the outer peripheral surface 23 of the core is longer than the length G between the inner peripheral surface 25 of the core and the inner peripheral surface 13, then the durability of the outer peripheral surface 13 of the light-shielding member 1 can be further improved.

[0120] <Manufacturing Method of Light-Shielding Components> Reference Figure 3(A) to (F) describe one embodiment of the manufacturing method of the light-shielding component.

[0121] The manufacturing method of the light-shielding component 1 includes: a first step of preparing a resin layer 3; a second step of placing a core layer 2 on the other side of the resin layer 3 in the thickness direction; a third step of covering the core layer 2 with the resin layer 3; and a fourth step of covering the resin layer 3 with a low-reflection layer 4.

[0122] [First Process] In the first process, such as Figure 3 As shown in (A), resin layer 3 is prepared. Specifically, in order to prepare resin layer 3, firstly, substrate M1 is prepared.

[0123] The substrate M1 contains a metal that can be removed by etching. Examples of materials used for the substrate M1 include stainless steel.

[0124] Next, a resin layer 3 is disposed on the other side of the substrate M1 in the thickness direction. Then, if the material of the resin layer 3 is a photosensitive resin, a solution of the resin layer 3 material (varnish) is applied to the other side of the substrate M1 in the thickness direction to obtain a coating film. The coating film is then exposed and developed. Thus, a resin layer 3 is disposed on the other side of the substrate M1 in the thickness direction. Alternatively, if the material of the resin layer 3 is not a photosensitive resin (in the case of a non-photosensitive resin), the resin layer 3 is disposed by printing a solution of the resin layer 3 material (varnish).

[0125] [Second Process] In the second process, such as Figure 3 As shown in (B), a core layer 2 is disposed on the other side of the resin layer 3 in the thickness direction. Specifically, a seed layer M2 is first formed on the other side of the resin layer 3 by sputtering. Examples of materials for the seed layer M2 include chromium, copper, nickel, titanium, and alloys thereof. It should be noted that the seed layer M2 can be a single layer or multiple layers.

[0126] Next, as Figure 3 As shown in (C), firstly, a partially open resist R is disposed on the other side of the substrate M1 in the thickness direction to form the core layer 2. On the other side of the seed layer M2 exposed from the resist R in the thickness direction, the core layer 2 is disposed by electrolytic plating. According to the plating method, the core layer 2 can be reliably disposed.

[0127] [Third Process] In the third process, such as Figure 3As shown in (D), the core layer 2 is coated with resin layer 3. Specifically, the first main surface 21, the second main surface 22, the outer peripheral surface 23, and the inner peripheral surface 25 of the core are coated with resin layer 3. The method of coating the first main surface 21, the second main surface 22, the outer peripheral surface 23, and the inner peripheral surface 25 of the core with resin layer 3 is the same as the first step described above.

[0128] Subsequently, substrate M1 is removed by etching. It should be noted that... Figure 3 In (D), the core layer 2 and the seed layer M2 are integrated to form the core layer 2.

[0129] [Fourth Process] In the fourth process, such as Figure 3 As shown in (E), a low-reflection layer 4 is used to cover the resin layer 3. Specifically, the low-reflection layer 4 covers the first resin main surface 31, the second resin main surface 32, the outer resin peripheral surface 33, and the inner resin peripheral surface 35.

[0130] As a method of using a low-reflection layer 4 to cover the first main surface 31, the second main surface 32, the outer peripheral surface 33, and the inner peripheral surface 35 of the resin, examples include electrodeposition coating, physical vapor deposition, and plating (e.g., electrolytic plating).

[0131] When the material of the low-reflection layer 4 is a resin composition, electrodeposition coating is the preferred coating method described above. Furthermore, when the material of the low-reflection layer 4 is a metal or its oxide, physical vapor deposition is the preferred coating method described above.

[0132] In the electrodeposition coating method, firstly, a metal layer M3 is used to coat the resin layer 3. Specifically, the metal layer M3 coats the first main surface 31, the second main surface 32, the outer peripheral surface 33, and the inner peripheral surface 35 of the resin.

[0133] Materials that can be used as the metal layer M3 include, for example, chromium, nickel, titanium, copper, nickel-chromium, tungsten, cobalt, and their alloys.

[0134] The materials of the metal layer M3 can be used alone or in combination with two or more materials.

[0135] Methods for coating the metal layer M3 include, for example, physical vapor deposition and electroless plating.

[0136] Examples of physical vapor deposition methods include vacuum vapor deposition, sputtering, and ion plating. Sputtering is a preferred physical vapor deposition method.

[0137] The metal layer M3 has a thickness of, for example, 1 nm to 1000 nm, preferably 10 nm to 500 nm. If the thickness of the metal layer M3 is above or above the lower limit mentioned above, the adhesion between the resin layer 3 and the low-reflection layer 4 can be improved.

[0138] The metal layer M3 can also be set to a single layer or multiple layers.

[0139] Next, as Figure 3 As shown in (F), the resin layer 3 is coated with a low-reflection layer 4 through a metal layer M3 using an electrodeposition coating method. Specifically, the first main surface 31, the second main surface 32, the outer peripheral surface 33, and the inner peripheral surface 35 of the resin are coated with the low-reflection layer 4 through the metal layer M3. It should be noted that in... Figure 3 In (F), a metal layer M3 is included and shown as a low-reflection layer 4.

[0140] By following the above steps, light-shielding component 1 is manufactured.

[0141] 2. Effects In the light-shielding member 1, the first main surface 11, the second main surface 12, the outer peripheral surface 13, and the inner peripheral surface 15 are the outer surfaces of the low-reflection layer 4. Therefore, light reflection can be suppressed.

[0142] Furthermore, the outer peripheral surface 13 of the light-shielding member 1 has a conical shape. Therefore, even when light is incident on the outer peripheral surface 13 of the light-shielding member 1 and reflected, the reflected light can be suppressed from entering the light-shielding object 100.

[0143] In detail, using Figure 4 (A) and Figure 4 (B) Describe in detail the function and effect of the light-shielding component 1. It should be explained, such as... Figure 4 (A) and Figure 4 As shown in (B), the light-shielding member 1 is used such that the first main surface 11 is the light incident side and the second main surface 12 is the light-shielding object 100 side. That is, the light-shielding member 1 has an outer peripheral surface 13, which has a conical shape in which the area in the surface direction orthogonal to the thickness direction expands from the light incident side toward the light-shielding object 100.

[0144] like Figure 4 As shown in (A), when the outer peripheral surface 13 of the light-shielding member 1 does not have a conical shape, and when viewed in cross section along the thickness direction, the first main surface 11 of the light-shielding member 1 is orthogonal to the outer peripheral surface 13 of the light-shielding member 1, depending on the incident angle of the light L, there is a case where the light L reflected from the outer peripheral surface 13 enters the light-shielding object 100.

[0145] On the other hand, such as Figure 4 As shown in (B), when the outer peripheral surface 13 of the light-shielding member 1 has a conical shape, even when light L is incident on the outer peripheral surface 13 of the light-shielding member 1 and reflected, the reflected light L can be suppressed from entering the light-shielding object 100.

[0146] In addition, the rigidity of the light-shielding member 1 can be improved by the metal core layer 2.

[0147] 3. Second Implementation Method In the second embodiment, the same reference numerals are used to label the same components and processes as in the first embodiment, and detailed descriptions are omitted. Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, the second embodiment can achieve the same effects as the first embodiment. Moreover, the first and second embodiments can be appropriately combined.

[0148] Reference Figure 5 The second embodiment of the light-shielding member of the present invention will be described.

[0149] The light-shielding component 1 has a core layer 2, a resin layer 3, and a low-reflection layer 4.

[0150] In addition, the light-shielding member 1 has a cylindrical portion 5 that protrudes from the core layer 2 in the thickness direction.

[0151] The cylindrical portion 5 has an inner circumferential surface 51 and an outer circumferential surface 52, which serve as the inner circumferential surface of the cylindrical portion 5. The inner circumferential surface 51 is continuous from the inner circumferential surface 25 of the core. The inner circumferential surface 51 and the inner circumferential surface 25 of the core have the same inner diameter and share a common center.

[0152] The resin layer 3 is disposed between the core layer 2 and the low-reflection layer 4. The resin layer 3 covers the core layer 2.

[0153] The first main surface 31 of resin covers the first main surface 21 of the core. The second main surface 32 of resin covers the second main surface 22 of the core. The outer peripheral surface 33 of resin covers the outer peripheral surface 23 of the core. The inner peripheral surface 35 of resin covers the outer peripheral surface 52 of the cylinder.

[0154] The low-reflection layer 4 covers a first resin main surface 31, a second resin main surface 32, a resin outer peripheral surface 33, a resin inner peripheral surface 35 on the other side of the thickness direction, a core inner peripheral surface 25, and a cylinder inner peripheral surface 51. Specifically, the first main surface 11 covers the first resin main surface 31. The second main surface 12 covers the second resin main surface 32. The outer peripheral surface 13 covers the resin outer peripheral surface 33. The inner peripheral surface 15 covers the core inner peripheral surface 25, the resin inner peripheral surface 35 on the other side of the thickness direction, and the cylinder inner peripheral surface 51.

[0155] The inner circumferential surface 25 of the core is covered by a low-reflection layer 4. In addition, the inner circumferential surface 51 of the cylinder is covered by a low-reflection layer 4, thereby improving the strength around the through hole 14 of the light-shielding member 1.

[0156] The light-shielding member 1 can be manufactured based on the above-described manufacturing method for a light-shielding member. However, in the third step, the first main surface 21, the second main surface 22, and the outer peripheral surface 23 of the core are covered with a resin layer 3. Furthermore, in the fourth step, the first main surface 31, the second main surface 32, the outer peripheral surface 33, the inner peripheral surface 35, the inner peripheral surface 25 of the core, and the inner peripheral surface 51 of the cylinder are covered with a low-reflection layer 4.

[0157] 4. Variations In the modified examples, the same reference numerals are used to mark the same components and processes as in the first and second embodiments, and detailed descriptions are omitted. Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, the modified examples can achieve the same effects as the first and second embodiments. Moreover, the first embodiment, the second embodiment, and the modified examples can be appropriately combined. It should be noted that the following description will detail the modified examples of the first embodiment.

[0158] (A variation of the manufacturing method for a light-shielding component) Reference Figure 6 Examples of variations in the manufacturing method of the light-shielding component are described in (A) to (D).

[0159] The manufacturing method of the light-shielding component 1 includes: a fifth step, preparing a core layer 2; a sixth step, covering the core layer 2 with a resin layer 3; and a seventh step, covering the resin layer 3 with a low-reflection layer 4.

[0160] [Fifth Process] In the fifth process, such as Figure 6 As shown in (A), core layer 2 is prepared. To prepare core layer 2, firstly, a substrate M of material comprising the aforementioned core layer 2 is prepared. Next, as... Figure 6 As shown in (B), the substrate M is etched to prepare the core layer 2. Specifically, the portion forming the core layer 2 is covered with a photoresist, and the substrate M exposed from the photoresist is removed by etching. Thus, the core layer 2 is prepared.

[0161] [Sixth Process] In the sixth process, such as Figure 6 As shown in (C), the core layer 2 is coated with resin layer 3. Specifically, the first main surface 21, the second main surface 22, the outer peripheral surface 23, and the inner peripheral surface 25 of the core are coated with resin layer 3. The method of coating the core layer 2 with resin layer 3 is the same as the first step described above.

[0162] [Seventh Process] In the seventh process, such as Figure 6As shown in (D), the resin layer 3 is coated with a low-reflection layer 4. Specifically, the resin first main surface 31, the resin second main surface 32, the resin outer peripheral surface 33, and the resin inner peripheral surface 35 are coated with the low-reflection layer 4. The method of coating the resin layer 3 with the low-reflection layer 4 is the same as the fourth step described above.

[0163] By following the above steps, light-shielding component 1 is manufactured.

[0164] In addition, in the above description, the core layer 2 is prepared by etching the substrate M made of the material of the core layer 2. However, it is also possible to prepare the core layer 2 by placing the core layer 2 on the substrate M and then removing the substrate M by etching, based on the same steps as the second process described above.

[0165] like Figure 7 As shown, the light-shielding member 1 can also have a guide groove 40 extending through the thickness direction. The guide groove 40 ensures accurate rotation of the light-shielding member 1. The shape of the guide groove 40 is appropriately selected based on the rotation direction of the light-shielding member 1. Figure 7 In this configuration, the guide groove 40 is disposed separately from the through hole 14 along its long axis. The guide groove 40 has a top-view arc shape that shares the center of the through hole 14.

[0166] In the first and second embodiments, the through hole 14 is a round hole, but the through hole 14 is not particularly limited, for example, it can also be a square hole or a conical hole.

[0167] As a conical hole, for example, such as Figure 8 The tapered hole shown in (A) has an area that expands from the first main surface 11 toward the second main surface 12 in a direction orthogonal to the thickness direction.

[0168] In this case, when viewed in cross-section along the thickness direction, the angle γ formed by the first main surface 11 and the inner peripheral surface 15 is an acute angle. The angle γ is, for example, 45° or more, preferably 60° or more, and also, for example, less than 90°.

[0169] If the angle γ is within the range mentioned above, rotational performance can be improved.

[0170] In addition, as a conical hole, examples such as Figure 8 (B) shows a tapered hole whose area decreases from the first main surface 11 toward the second main surface 12 in the direction of the surface orthogonal to the thickness direction.

[0171] In the above description, the outer peripheral surface 13 has a conical shape (linear conical shape) in which the area in the surface direction changes linearly with respect to the thickness direction, but the outer peripheral surface 13 can also have a parabolic conical shape in which the area in the surface direction changes exponentially or with respect to the thickness direction.

[0172] As a parabolic cone shape, examples include... Figure 9 As shown in (A), the light-shielding member 1 has a central arc shape on the inner side of its outer peripheral surface 13, and as shown in (A). Figure 9 As shown in (B), the outer side of the outer peripheral surface 13 of the light-shielding member 1 has a central arc shape.

[0173] In the above description, the light-shielding member 1 is composed of a core layer 2, a resin layer 3, and a low-reflection layer 4, but the structure of the light-shielding member 1 is not limited to the above embodiment. The light-shielding member 1 may also include components other than the core layer 2, the resin layer 3, and the low-reflection layer 4. For example, the light-shielding member 1 may have a sealing layer disposed between the core layer 2 and the resin layer 3 and / or between the resin layer 3 and the low-reflection layer 4.

[0174] In the above description, the inner peripheral surface 15 is the outer surface of the low-reflection layer 4, but the inner peripheral surface 15 can also be the outer surface of the core layer 2 or the outer surface of the resin layer 3. In other words, the inner peripheral surface 15 may not be covered by the low-reflection layer 4. Additionally, as... Figure 10 As shown, the inner peripheral surface 15 may also include the outer surface of the core layer 2. If the inner peripheral surface 15 includes the outer surface of the core layer 2, the strength around the through hole 14 of the light-shielding member 1 can be improved. In addition, the inner peripheral surface 15 may also include the outer surface of the resin layer 3.

[0175] In the above description, the outer peripheral surface 13 is the outer surface of the low-reflection layer 4, but the outer peripheral surface 13 can also be the outer surface of the core layer 2 or the outer surface of the resin layer 3. In other words, the outer peripheral surface 13 may not be covered by the low-reflection layer 4. Alternatively, the outer peripheral surface 13 may also include the outer surface of the core layer 2. Alternatively, the outer peripheral surface 13 may also include the outer surface of the resin layer 3.

[0176] Alternatively, the light-shielding component 1 may not have a resin layer 3 and may instead consist of a core layer 2 and a low-reflection layer 4.

[0177] Furthermore, in the above description, the light-shielding member 1 has a generally elliptical shape when viewed from above, but the shape of the light-shielding member 1 is not particularly limited and can be appropriately changed according to its use and purpose.

[0178] It should be noted that the above-described invention is provided as an illustrative embodiment of the present invention, but this is merely illustrative and should not be interpreted as limiting. Modifications of the invention that are obvious to those skilled in the art are included within the scope of protection of the technical solutions described below.

[0179] Industrial availability The light-shielding component of the present invention can be used, for example, to block visible light.
