Lamination Apparatus with Variable Frames for Uniform Adhesion
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing lamination apparatuses face challenges in uniformly maintaining adhesion performance, particularly at the corner portions of display panels and windows, leading to potential degradation due to non-uniform adhesion, especially as display devices of varying sizes require adjustable lamination solutions.
Innovation Solution
A lamination apparatus comprising fixed frames with bent portions, variable frames that adjust the distance between fixed frames, and light sources on these frames to cure resin uniformly, ensuring consistent adhesion regardless of display panel size. The apparatus includes multiple fixed frames with bent portions and variable frames that adjust the frame's dimensions to match the display device, with light sources for resin curing, primarily using UV radiation or LEDs.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If a fixed lamination apparatus structure is used, then the manufacturing process is simple, but the adhesion performance at corner portions degrades due to non-uniform resin application
Solution Approach 1:
The lamination apparatus employs a movable frame that can move along the longitudinal axis relative to the fixed frame, transforming the static structure into a dynamic system. This movement enables the light sources to be repositioned, allowing uniform resin application and adhesion at corner portions while maintaining overall structural simplicity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the lamination apparatus is designed for a specific panel size, then the structure is simple, but the apparatus cannot adapt to display devices having various sizes
Solution Approach 1:
The movable frame sliding along the longitudinal axis allows the lamination apparatus to adjust its configuration for different panel sizes. This dynamic adjustment capability provides versatility across various display device sizes without requiring multiple specialized apparatuses, while keeping the structural design relatively simple through reusable components.
