BONDING APPARATUS, BONDING METHOD AND ARTICLE MANUFACTURING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18484766 titled 'BONDING APPARATUS, BONDING METHOD AND ARTICLE MANUFACTURING METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The bonding apparatus described in the abstract is a device designed to bond a second object to a first object by protruding the second object to the side of the first object using a sheet as a medium. Here is a simplified explanation of the patent application:
- Holding unit holds a sheet with the second object attached.
- Protrusion mechanism pushes the second object to the side of the first object through the sheet.
- Measurement unit measures the position of the second object with respect to the first object.
- Processing unit positions the first and second objects based on the measured position.
- Potential Applications
This technology could be used in industries such as electronics manufacturing, automotive assembly, and medical device production.
- Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of accurately bonding two objects together in a precise and controlled manner.
- Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved efficiency, accuracy, and consistency in bonding processes.
- Potential Commercial Applications
The potential commercial applications of this technology include automated assembly lines, robotic manufacturing systems, and quality control processes.
- Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art for this technology could be robotic arms used in manufacturing processes to position and bond objects together.
- Unanswered Questions
- How does the holding unit ensure the sheet remains stable during the bonding process?
The holding unit likely has a mechanism to secure the sheet in place to prevent any movement or shifting during bonding.
- What materials are typically used for the sheet in this bonding apparatus?
The sheet used in the bonding apparatus could be made of materials such as plastic, metal, or composite materials, depending on the specific requirements of the bonding process.
Original Abstract Submitted
A bonding apparatus for bonding a second object to a first object, including a holding unit configured to hold a sheet with the second object stuck thereto, a protrusion mechanism configured to protrude the second object to a side of the first object via the sheet held by the holding unit, a measurement unit configured to measure, with respect to the first object, a position of the second object stuck to the sheet held by the holding unit, and a processing unit configured to perform a process of positioning the first object and the second object based on the position measured by the measurement unit in a state in which the second object is protruded to the side of the first object by the protrusion mechanism.
