FILM LAMINATING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240034042 titled 'FILM LAMINATING APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The film laminating apparatus described in the patent application consists of a roller and a platform arranged opposite to each other, as well as a blowing member. A first gap is defined between the roller and the platform, through which a flexible panel and a laminating film are placed. The flexible panel has a display portion and a bonding portion, with a step difference between them creating a second gap between the bonding portion and the platform. The blowing member has an air outlet that communicates with the second gap and is designed to generate a positive pressure to support the bonding portion of the flexible panel.

  • The film laminating apparatus includes a roller and a platform, with a first gap between them.
  • A flexible panel and a laminating film are placed between the roller and the platform via the first gap.
  • The flexible panel has a display portion and a bonding portion, with a step difference creating a second gap between the bonding portion and the platform.
  • The blowing member generates a positive pressure at the second gap to support the bonding portion of the flexible panel.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Film laminating for electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops.
  • Laminating protective films onto displays or touchscreens.
  • Laminating films onto flexible panels used in wearable devices or flexible displays.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures proper bonding of the flexible panel and laminating film by supporting the bonding portion.
  • Prevents air bubbles or uneven lamination by generating a positive pressure at the second gap.
  • Allows for the lamination of flexible panels with step differences between the display and bonding portions.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved quality and durability of laminated products.
  • Enhanced visual appearance of displays or touchscreens.
  • Increased flexibility in design and manufacturing of electronic devices with flexible panels.


Original Abstract Submitted

a film laminating apparatus is provided. the film laminating apparatus includes a roller and a platform arranged oppositely, and a blowing member. a first gap is defined between the roller and the platform. the flexible panel and the laminating film are interposed between the roller and the platform via the first gap. the flexible panel includes a display portion and a bonding portion, and a step difference is existed between the display portion and bonding portion such that a second gap is formed between the bonding portion and the platform. an air outlet of the blowing member is in communication with the second gap. the blowing member is configured to generate a positive pressure at the second gap to support the bonding portion of the flexible panel.
