Abstract

The present specification relates to a display unit manufacturing method and an optical film laminating system.

Claims (19)

1. A method of manufacturing a display unit, the method comprising:

preparing a panel unit having a light source side polarizing plate provided on one surface of a panel;

sequentially attaching two or more optical films onto the light source side polarizing plate by supplying each optical film onto the light source side polarizing plate from a roll around which that optical film is wound; and

attaching a screen unit side polarizing plate to a surface of the panel, which is opposite to the surface of the panel on which the light source side polarizing plate is provided, so that a transmission axis of the light source side polarizing plate and a transmission axis of the screen unit side polarizing plate are perpendicular to each other, before the preparing of the panel unit having the light source side polarizing plate, before the attaching of the two or more optical films, or after the attaching of the two or more optical films.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the two or more optical films include at least one of a brightness enhancement film, a light collecting sheet, and a diffusion film.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the attaching of the two or more optical films includes attaching a brightness enhancement film onto the light source side polarizing plate by supplying the brightness enhancement film onto the light source side polarizing plate from a roll around which the brightness enhancement film is wound so that a transmission axis of the light source side polarizing plate and a transmission axis of the brightness enhancement film are parallel to each other.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the attaching of the two or more optical films includes: attaching a brightness enhancement film onto the light source side polarizing plate by supplying the brightness enhancement film onto the light source side polarizing plate from a roll around which the brightness enhancement film is wound so that a transmission axis of the light source side polarizing plate and a transmission axis of the brightness enhancement film are parallel to each other; and attaching a light collecting sheet onto the brightness enhancement film by supplying the light collecting sheet onto the brightness enhancement film from a roll around which the light collecting sheet is wound.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

providing a light source on the two or more optical films after the attaching of the two or more optical films.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the preparing of the panel unit includes attaching a plate-shaped polarizing plate onto one surface of the panel, or attaching a polarizing plate onto one surface of the panel by supplying the polarizing plate onto one surface of the panel from a roll around which the polarizing plate is wound.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the preparing of the panel unit includes:

supplying the panel by conveying the panel in any one direction; and

attaching the light source side polarizing plate onto one surface of the panel by supplying the light source side polarizing plate onto the panel from a roll around which the light source side polarizing plate is wound.

8. The method of claim 1 , comprising:

supplying the panel by conveying the panel in any one direction;

attaching the light source side polarizing plate onto one surface of the panel by supplying the light source side polarizing plate from a roll around which the light source side polarizing plate is wound; and

attaching a screen unit side polarizing plate onto the other surface of the panel by supplying the screen unit side polarizing plate from a roll around which the screen unit side polarizing plate is wound so that a transmission axis of the light source side polarizing plate and a transmission axis of the screen unit side polarizing plate are perpendicular to each other.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the attaching of the two or more optical films includes attaching a brightness enhancement film onto the light source side polarizing plate by supplying the brightness enhancement film onto the light source side polarizing plate from a roll around which the brightness enhancement film is wound so that the transmission axis of the light source side polarizing plate and a transmission axis of the brightness enhancement film are parallel to each other.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein a total thickness of the two or more optical films is 20 μm or larger and 700 μm or smaller.
