Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of UV curing, and more specifically to a baffle structure of a UV mask. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of display devices, the box-forming process is one of the key manufacturing steps, which involves bonding the array (array substrate) and CF (color filter). In this process, the hardening of the seal (sealing material) is an important link, which is usually achieved by UV (ultraviolet) light irradiation. In order to achieve selective UV curing, the traditional practice is to use a dedicated UV mask with a specific pattern designed on it to control the area irradiated by UV light and avoid UV light irradiating the liquid crystal during the UV curing process. This is because liquid crystal is sensitive to UV light and will decompose and produce impurities after being irradiated by UV light.

[0003] However, the production of UV masks is a complex and time-consuming process that requires special design and production processes and is accompanied by certain costs. Especially when product delivery is tight, the production of UV masks may become a bottleneck restricting production progress. Therefore, we have made improvements to this and proposed a baffle structure for UV masks.

[0004] For example, a Chinese patent (publication number CN104834118B) discloses a method and device for manufacturing a liquid crystal display device, and its specification discloses: Regarding the photo-alignment method, there is a method of imparting an alignment function to the surface of an organic film formed on the surface of a substrate by irradiating the surface of the organic film with UV light that is almost linearly polarized. Since the photo-alignment film will produce impurity decomposition products after being irradiated with UV light, it has been removed by heat treatment, etc. The above patents can prove the defects of the prior art.

[0037] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, further definition and explanation thereof is not required in subsequent drawings.

[0038] Embodiment 1 of the baffle structure of the UV mask of the utility model

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 The baffle structure of the UV mask of the utility model includes: an array substrate main body 1, a plurality of display panel main bodies 101 are arranged on the array substrate main body 1, and a baffle structure 2 for shielding the display panel main body 101 during the UV curing process is arranged above the array substrate main body 1, the baffle structure 2 includes a first shielding portion and a second shielding portion, the first shielding portion and the second shielding portion successively and separately shield the display panel main body 101 during the UV curing process, thereby realizing the control of the UV light irradiation area. Compared with the prior art, the present application saves the production cost of the UV mask, reduces the overall production cost, does not need to wait for the production of the UV mask, shortens the production cycle, improves the production efficiency, and makes the product more competitive by reducing the cost and improving the production efficiency.

[0040] Further, such as Figure 1 As shown, a seal glue body 102 is disposed between the outer peripheral side of the display panel body 101 and the array substrate body 1 , and the seal glue body 102 is cured under the irradiation of UV light.

[0041] Further, such as Figure 1-Figure 2As shown, the first shielding portion includes a plurality of first shielding plates 202, each of which is used to cover a plurality of display panel bodies 101. By covering and shielding the display panel bodies 101 with the first shielding plates 202, it is possible to reduce the UV light irradiating onto the display panel bodies 101 during the UV curing process, thereby reducing the influence of the UV light on the liquid crystal of the display panel bodies 101.

[0042] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the second shielding portion includes a plurality of second shielding plates 201, and the second shielding plates 201 are perpendicular to the first shielding plates 202. Since the first shielding plates 202 or the second shielding plates 201 will also cover a portion of the Seal frame glue body 102 when shielding the display panel body 101, the setting of independently covering the first shielding plates 202 and the second shielding plates 201 in sequence can ensure the integrity of the Seal frame glue body 102 when irradiated by UV light.

[0043] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, each second baffle plate 201 is also used to cover multiple display panel bodies 101. By covering and shielding the display panel bodies 101 with the second baffle plates 201, it is possible to reduce the UV light irradiating onto the display panel bodies 101 during the UV curing process, thereby reducing the impact of the UV light on the liquid crystal of the display panel bodies 101.

[0044] When in use, the second shielding plate 201 and the first shielding plate 202 cover the display panel body 101 separately in sequence. The second shielding plate 201 and the first shielding plate 202 can be placed in sequence. For ease of description, the first shielding plate 202 is used as an example for explanation. Figure 2 , the first shielding plate 202 is used to cover the display panel body 101 and then irradiate with UV light. At this time, a part of the seal frame glue body 102 is blocked by the first shielding plate 202. Then, the first shielding plate 202 is removed and the second shielding plate 201 is used to cover the display panel body 101. The second shielding plate 201 is placed perpendicular to the first shielding plate 202. Figure 3 As shown, at this time, the seal glue body 102 originally blocked by the first blocking plate 202 is exposed to the outside for curing.

[0045] Embodiment 2 of the baffle structure of the UV mask of the utility model

[0046] The baffle structure of the UV mask of the utility model is further as follows: Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the top of each first baffle plate 202 and each second baffle plate 201 is fixedly connected to a connecting seat 4, and a hand bolt 6 is provided on the top of the connecting seat 4. After loosening the hand bolt 6, the position of the connecting seat 4 can be adjusted, and then the position of the first baffle plate 202 and each second baffle plate 201 can be adjusted.

[0047] Further, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the connection seats 4 at the tops of the several first shielding plates 202 are arranged in a group, and the connection seats 4 at the tops of the several second shielding plates 201 are arranged in another group.

[0048] Further, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, several connecting seats 4 in each group are connected with connecting rods 5, and the bottom end of the hand-tightened bolt 6 is in contact with the top of the connecting rod 5. The setting of the connecting seat 4 and the connecting rod 5 can connect several first baffles 202 together, so as to facilitate the synchronous taking and placing of several first baffles 202; the setting of the connecting seat 4 and the connecting rod 5 can connect several second baffles 201 together, so as to facilitate the synchronous taking and placing of several second baffles 201.

[0049] Further, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, both ends of the connecting rod 5 are fixedly connected with the first limiting rod 7, and the side of the first limiting rod 7 contacts the side of the array substrate body 1. The setting of the first limiting rod 7 can limit the first baffle plate 202 and the second baffle plate 201 with the help of the array substrate body 1, the connecting seat 4, the connecting rod 5 and the hand-tightening bolt 6, which can not only facilitate the first baffle plate 202 and the second baffle plate 201 to be placed, aligned and cover the display panel body 101, but also reduce the movement of the first baffle plate 202 and the second baffle plate 201 during use.

[0050] Embodiment 3 of the baffle structure of the UV mask of the utility model

[0051] The baffle structure of the UV mask of the utility model is further as follows: Figure 6-Figure 8As shown, both ends of the connecting rod 5 are provided with a second limiting rod 8, the side of the second limiting rod 8 is in contact with the side of the array substrate body 1, the top of the second limiting rod 8 is provided with a groove 801, both sides of the groove 801 are provided with a slide groove 802, the two slide grooves 802 are slidably connected with a connecting shaft 803, a connecting iron block 804 is fixedly connected between the two connecting shafts 803, and the connecting iron block 804 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 5, and a magnet 805 is embedded on the top of the inner cavity of the groove 801. The setting of the second limiting rod 8 can be achieved with the help of the array substrate body 1. The substrate body 1, the connecting seat 4, the connecting rod 5 and the hand-tightening bolt 6 limit the first shielding plate 202 and the second shielding plate 201, which can not only facilitate the first shielding plate 202 and the second shielding plate 201 to be placed, aligned and cover the display panel body 101, but also reduce the movement of the first shielding plate 202 and the second shielding plate 201 during use, and the second limiting rod 8 can be rotated to be parallel to the connecting rod 5, so that the connecting seat 4 can be separated from the connecting rod 5, so as to increase, decrease or replace the first shielding plate 202 and the second shielding plate 201 according to actual conditions;

[0052] Specifically, the side of the connecting iron block 804 is in contact with the groove 801, and the second limit rod 8 can be limited by the friction force between the connecting iron block 804 and the groove 801 to prevent the second limit rod 8 from moving on its own, and the second limit rod 8 is further limited under the adsorption of the connecting iron block 804 and the magnet 805. After pulling the second limit rod 8 downward so that the second limit rod 8 cannot be pulled, the second limit rod 8 can be rotated around the connecting shaft 803 to rotate the second limit rod 8 to be parallel to the connecting rod 5. In the parallel state, the second limit rod 8 is rotated so that the second limit rod 8 is perpendicular to the connecting rod 5. The second limit rod 8 is pushed upward so that the magnet 805 and the connecting iron block 804 are adsorbed together to reset the second limit rod 8.
