Abstract
Description
A photoresist molding die for polarizing films Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a mold for forming polarizers, and more specifically, to a photoresist-molded polarizer mold. Background Technology
[0002] In modern integrated circuit manufacturing, photolithography generally refers to the process of transferring a drawn structural pattern from a mask to a substrate in micro- and nano-fabrication processes. It involves using exposure technology to copy the pattern of a semiconductor device or circuit from a mask onto a photoresist film on a semiconductor wafer, then dissolving and removing the photoresist film in the corresponding areas through a development process, and finally using the masking effect of the photoresist to process the exposed parts of the substrate while leaving the unexposed areas unaffected, thus achieving the purpose of pattern transfer.
[0003] A polarizer is an optical film material used to control the polarization direction of a specific light beam. The principle is that when natural light passes through a polarizer, light whose vibration direction is perpendicular to the polarizer's transmission axis is absorbed, leaving only polarized light whose vibration direction is parallel to the polarizer's transmission axis to pass through, thus achieving control over the polarization direction of the light beam.
[0004] However, when preparing existing polarizers, the molds are not easy to open, and the upper and lower molds are prone to adsorption and adhesion due to negative pressure. Forcibly opening them can easily damage the polarizers. Summary of the Invention
[0005] One objective of this invention is to provide a new technical solution for photoresist molding polarizer forming molds.
[0006] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a photoresist molding polarizer forming mold is provided, comprising a lower mold and an upper mold;
[0007] Guide rods are fixed at the four corners of the lower mold, and a first spring and a retaining ring are sleeved on the guide rods;
[0008] The lower mold has mounting grooves at both ends, and an elastic sheet is provided inside the mounting groove. A second spring is provided at the lower part of the elastic sheet, and a third spring is provided at both ends of the elastic sheet.
[0009] Optionally, a first guide groove is provided at each of the four corners of the upper mold, and a second guide groove is provided at the upper end of the first guide groove. The inner wall diameter of the second guide groove is smaller than the inner wall diameter of the first guide groove.
[0010] Optionally, the diameter of the guide rod is larger than the diameter of the retaining ring, the guide rod is located inside the second guide groove, and the retaining ring and the first spring are located inside the first guide groove.
[0011] Optionally, the bottom end of the first spring is fixed to the upper surface of the lower mold, and the upper end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the retaining ring.
[0012] Optionally, the upper mold has fitting grooves at both ends, and the upper end of the elastic sheet is fitted inside the fitting groove.
[0013] Optionally, movable blocks are fixedly provided at both ends of the elastic sheet, the movable blocks are movably located inside the mounting groove, and the two third springs are fixedly connected to the outside of the movable blocks, with both ends of the third springs fixedly connected to the inside of the mounting groove.
[0014] Optionally, an arc-shaped mold seat is fixedly provided on the middle upper surface of the lower mold, and an arc-shaped mold groove is provided on the middle lower surface of the upper mold. The lower mold and the upper mold fit together, and the arc-shaped mold seat is engaged in the arc-shaped mold groove.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] This utility model enables precise guiding and docking of the upper and lower molds when they are fitted together by setting a first spring and a retaining ring on the guide rod. In order to prevent the upper and lower molds from being difficult to open due to negative pressure during injection molding, the first spring and retaining ring assist in opening the upper mold.
[0017] The lower mold has an installation groove inside, and the installation groove has an elastic sheet inside. The elastic sheet is supported by a second spring and a third spring, so that the upper mold can be opened under negative pressure adsorption. In conjunction with the first spring and the retaining ring, it prevents the upper mold from being opened forcefully and causing damage to the polarizer.

[0037] It should be noted that the diameter of the guide rod 3 is larger than the diameter of the retaining ring 5, which facilitates the matching of the second guide groove 15 and the first guide groove 14. This allows the first spring 4 and the retaining ring 5 to contract under force when they collide with the junction of the first guide groove 14 and the second guide groove 15, thus providing elasticity.
[0038] In this embodiment, preferably, the bottom end of the first spring 4 is fixed to the upper surface of the lower mold 1, and the upper end of the first spring 4 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the retaining ring 5.
[0039] It should be noted that the first spring 4 is fixed on the lower mold 1, which facilitates the fixed connection and can maintain the stability of the retaining ring 5 to prevent it from falling off.
[0040] In this embodiment, preferably, the upper mold 2 has fitting grooves 13 at both ends, and the upper end of the elastic sheet 7 is fitted inside the fitting groove 13.
[0041] It should be noted that the design of the fitting groove 13 facilitates the fitting of the upper end of the elastic sheet 7, thereby enabling the upper mold 2 to be elastically lifted.

[0046] The specific operational procedures for this application are as follows:
[0047] In use, first apply release liquid to the surface of the arc mold seat 11 on the lower mold 1 and the arc mold groove 12 on the upper mold 2. Then guide the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 1 through the guide rod 3, the first guide groove 14 and the second guide groove 15 to control the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 1 to fit together. When the upper mold 2 and the lower mold 1 fit together, the first spring 4 and the elastic sheet 7 are squeezed.
