Abstract: A method for quickly applying and spreading adhesive between substrates without leaving air bubbles. The method includes holding two substrates apart from each other with adhesive sides facing, a second substrate being positioned above a first substrate. The second substrate is suspended in a manner so as to cause a portion to warp towards the first substrate. After a liquid filler is applied between the two substrates, rollers are lowered onto the second substrate and moved so as to disperse the liquid filler between the first and second substrates. In accordance with the rolling of the rollers, end portions of the second substrate are lowered towards the first substrate.

Abstract: A method for producing a bonded plate-shaped assembly includes retaining a pair of plate-shaped members facing each other by a pair of retaining base members; charging a photo-curable liquid material between the pair of plate-shaped members facing each other; causing movement of the pair of retaining base members by a retaining base member movement unit to cause the pair of plate-shaped members to draw close to each other to cause wetting spreading of the liquid material between the pair of plate-shaped members; detecting a wetting spreading state of the liquid material by a sensor; and illuminating curing light, in response to the result of detection, to the liquid material wettingly spread to the entire surfaces of the pair of plate-shaped members, to form the bonded plate-shaped assembly made up of the pair of plate-shaped members bonded together.

Abstract: A bonding device for charging a liquid material into a space between plate-shaped members for bonding them together in situ, in which the liquid material may be prevented from exuding from the space between the plate-shaped members. The bonding device includes pair retaining base members for retaining the pair plate-shaped members facing each other, and a retaining base member movement unit for causing movement of the retaining base members towards and away from each other. The bonding device also includes an illumination unit that illuminates curing light to a photo-curable liquid material charged between the pair plate-shaped members held by the pair retaining base members, and a sensor that detects the wetting spreading state of the liquid material charged between the pair plate-shaped members.

Abstract: The present invention prevents air bubbles from being mixed in at the time of resin filling. In a supplying step (FIGS. 5D, 5E), a transparent resin filler is dispensed and supplied from supply means so that the transparent resin filler comes into contact with both of an image display panel and a front panel to draw a predetermined pattern, and the transparent resin filler is maintained in contact with both of the panels until drawing of the predetermined pattern is completed.

Abstract: A charging apparatus includes a plurality of holding members that holds a pair of plate-shaped members in a state the major surfaces of the plate-shaped members face each other, a movement member that causes the holding members to be moved towards and away from each other, an emission nozzle configured to be introduced into a gap between the plate-shaped members, retained by the holding members, to emit the charging liquid into the gap, a nozzle movement unit that causes movement of the emission nozzle in an in-plane direction of the plate-shaped members, a reservoir in which the charging liquid is to be accumulated, and a thrust unit that causes the charging liquid accumulated in the reservoir to be emitted via the emission nozzle.
