  • Patent number: 6764369
    Abstract: Mass production encapsulation equipment and method for mass production of organic light emitting display devices, having a transporting system, a panel supply system, multiple dispensing systems, turning/storage system, cover plate supply system, lamination/ultra-violet radiation system, and an ultra-violet radiation system. The above systems are linked via the transmission system. Being supplied by the panel supply system, a panel is transported to the turning/storage system for turning over. The panel is then transported into alternate dispensing systems for resin coating. The panel coated with resin is again transported to the turning/storage system for storage. The first exposure stage is performed by an aligning lamination performed on the panel and a cover plate supplied by the cover plate supply system in the lamination/ultra-violet radiation system. The second exposure stage is further performed to cure the resin in the ultra-violet radiation system.

  • Patent number: 6758713
    Abstract: A package method for an organic electro-luminescent display, which spreads a certain amount of ultra-violet curing resin or thermal curing resin on a lamination plate or a substrate, to obtain a global spreading effect by forming a trench at an of the lamination plate. The lamination plate with the trench at the edge thereon is provided by a lamination plate supply system. The lamination plate is aligned and laminated with the substrate, and ultra-violet light radiation or thermal process is performed for curing the ultra-violet or thermal curing resin, respectively. In the alignment and lamination process, the space between the lamination plate and the substrate is controlled by adjusting lamination pressure and movement of the lamination machine; thereby, the exceeding ultra-violet or thermal curing resin flows into the trench at the edge of the lamination plate, and dimension of the package can thus be controlled.
