Apparatus and method of peeling film
A film peeling apparatus includes a first driver connected to a frame, a second driver connected to the frame, a first gripper connected to the first driver, a second gripper connected to the second driver, and a grip support spaced apart from the first gripper and the second gripper. The grip support and the first gripper grip a release tape attached to an end of a protective film attached to a panel and extending to an outside of the panel. The grip support and the second gripper grip the end of the protective film to which the release tape is attached.
1 . A film peeling apparatus comprising:
a frame;
a first driver and a second driver connected to the frame;
a first gripper connected to the first driver;
a second gripper connected to the second driver; and
a grip support spaced apart from the first gripper and the second gripper, wherein
the grip support and the first gripper grip a release tape attached to an end of a protective film attached to a panel and extending to an outside of the panel, and
the grip support and the second gripper grip the end of the protective film to which the release tape is attached,
the second gripper includes at least one rotating link, and
wherein the grip support includes a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface, the first surface is in contact with the first gripper, and the second surface is in contact with the second gripper.
2 . The film peeling apparatus of claim 1 , wherein
the grip support includes an anti-slip portion, and
the anti-slip portion forms a second surface of the grip support.
3 . The film peeling apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first gripper brings the release tape into contact with the first surface of the grip support and grips the release tape depending on a control of the first driver.
4 . The film peeling apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first gripper further includes a film detection sensor that detects whether the release tape is gripped.
5 . A film peeling apparatus comprising:
a frame;
a first driver and a second driver connected to the frame;
a first gripper connected to the first driver;
a second gripper connected to the second driver; and
a grip support spaced apart from the first gripper and the second gripper, wherein
the grip support and the first gripper grip a release tape attached to an end of a protective film attached to a panel and extending to an outside of the panel,
the grip support and the second gripper grip the end of the protective film to which the release tape is attached, and
the second gripper includes a plurality of links that rotate depending on a control of the second driver.
6 . The film peeling apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the second gripper includes a grip bar connected to the links and including a bent portion at an end of the grip bar.
7 . The film peeling apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the bent portion of the second gripper brings the protective film into contact with the second surface of the grip support and grips the protective film depending on a control of the second driver.
8 . A film peeling apparatus comprising:
a frame;
a first driver and a second driver connected to the frame;
a first gripper connected to the first driver;
a second gripper connected to the second driver; and
a grip support spaced apart from the first gripper and the second gripper, wherein
the grip support and the first gripper grip a release tape attached to an end of a protective film attached to a panel and extending to an outside of the panel,
the grip support and the second gripper grip the end of the protective film to which the release tape is attached,
the grip support includes:
a first surface; and
a second surface facing the first surface,
the first surface is in contact with the first gripper,
the second surface is in contact with the second gripper,
the second gripper includes a bent portion at an end of the second gripper, and
the second driver horizontally moves the second gripper so that the bent portion of the second gripper is in contact with the second surface of the grip support.
9 . The film peeling apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first gripper grips the release tape and moves to peel a portion of the protective film.
10 . The film peeling apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the second gripper grips the portion of the protective film peeled off by the first gripper.
11 . The film peeling apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the first gripper and the second gripper simultaneously peel the portion of the protective film.
