[0002] The TFT liquid crystal display manufacturing project is mainly composed of three parts, namely ARRAY project, CELL project and MODULE project. The CELL project is the process of mounting the display substrate and the color film substrate and injecting liquid crystal material between the two substrates. The above two substrates also need to undergo corresponding surface treatment (friction treatment) before mounting. The operation steps are as follows: first, apply an orientation film on the substrate, and then use a friction cloth to rub the orientation film to produce directional grooves on the orientation film layer, so that the liquid crystal material has a certain degree of guidance when injected.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0021] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 The utility model provides a TFT display screen substrate orientation film friction device, comprising a base 1, electric slides 2 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the base 1, a support seat 3 is arranged between the two groups of electric slides 2, the two sides of the support seat 3 are respectively fixedly connected to the moving ends of the two groups of electric slides 2, a positioning groove 4 is opened on the top of the support seat 3, a substrate 5 is clamped in the inner cavity of the positioning groove 4, and an orientation film layer 6 is coated on the surface of the substrate 5.

[0022] In this embodiment, a positioning groove 4 for positioning the substrate 5 and the orientation film layer 6 is provided on the top of the support seat 3. When it is necessary to rub the orientation film layer 6 on the surface of the substrate 5, the substrate 5 can be inserted into the inner cavity of the positioning groove 4 to prevent the substrate 5 and the orientation film layer 6 from being displaced during the rubbing process.

[0023] Preferably, an auxiliary material removal component is installed inside the support seat 3 for facilitating the ejection of the substrate 5 from the positioning groove 4. The auxiliary material removal component includes two groups of through holes 7 opened at the bottom of the inner cavity of the positioning groove 4.

The top end of the compression spring 10 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the support seat 3.

[0024] After the friction processing is completed, the user can push the top plate 9 upwards, and the movement of the top plate 9 will drive the push rod 8 to move upwards to push the substrate 5 out of the positioning groove 4, so as to facilitate the unloading. In addition, when the top plate 9 is pushed upwards, the compression spring 10 will be squeezed. After the unloading is completed, the user can release the push plate. At this time, the reaction force generated by the contraction of the compression spring 10 will push the push rod 8 to reset.

When the electric slide 2 drives the substrate 5 and the orientation film layer 6 to move, the friction roller 11 will roll on the surface of the orientation film layer 6, and the friction feathers 13 will generate directional grooves on the surface of the orientation film layer 6.

[0027] It is worth mentioning that a detachable connecting assembly is provided between the friction roller 11 and the connecting frame 16, and the friction roller 11 is detachably installed in the inner cavity of the connecting frame 16 through the detachable connecting assembly.
