专利说明:
Manufacturing Apparatus And Manufacture Method Of Flexible Printed Circuit Board [24] The present invention relates to a manufacturing apparatus and a manufacturing method of a flexible printed circuit board, and more particularly, it is possible to miniaturize the device by miniaturizing and precisely forming the circuit pattern, reduce the production cost thereof, The present invention relates to a manufacturing apparatus and a manufacturing method of a flexible printed circuit board, which is made to be automated and made simple. [25] In general, an etching method and a plating method are used as a method of manufacturing a printed circuit board (PCB). [26] In the above etching method, a printed circuit board is manufactured by stacking a copper plate which is a conductor on an insulating material of a polymer resin, and dissolving and removing unnecessary portions of the copper plate as a corrosion solution to leave only necessary conductor patterns. [27] This etching method is a technique that is widely used because of excellent mass productivity, the accompanying drawings, Figures 1 to 3 is a view showing a manufacturing process and manufacturing apparatus of a conventional flexible printed circuit board. [28] As shown, when manufacturing a flexible printed circuit board, first, as shown in the accompanying drawings, the photosensitive liquid 8 and the protective film (4, 6) is provided in the center, upper and lower, respectively, as shown in Figure 2 Prepare (2). [29] The photosensitive liquid 8 of the dry film 2 is attached onto the copper plate 14 in a state where the lower protective film 6 of the dry film 2 prepared as described above is peeled off. [30] Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 2, the copper plate 14 and the dry film 2 are firmly attached and fixed to each other. The dry film is subjected to the pressing process by the pressing means 20. (2) is inserted between the rollers 22 of the crimping means 20 with the copper plate 14 attached. [31] The circuit board film 10 having the circuit pattern 12 formed on the upper surface of the upper protective film 4 of the fixed dry film 2 is firmly attached to the copper plate 14 by the crimping means 20. Equipped. [32] As shown in FIG. 4, the dry film 2 having the circuit diagram film 10 attached thereto and attached thereto is subjected to exposure treatment by the exposure means 24 made of the light source 26. The photoresist 8 is cured into a shape corresponding to the circuit pattern 12 of the circuit diagram film 10. [33] Subsequently, the circuit diagram film 10 and the upper protective film 4 of the dry film 2 are separated from the upper surface of the photoresist 8 of the dry film 2 having the exposure process as described above and engraved with the circuit pattern 12. After this, by using the developing means, portions other than the cured portion of the photosensitive liquid 8 in accordance with the circuit pattern 12 are developed and removed by a conventional developing method. [34] On the other hand, after developing the photosensitive liquid 8 according to the circuit pattern 12 as described above, as shown in Figure 2, the copper plate 14 is subjected to the corrosion process by the corrosion means 28, The corrosion solution sprayed from the nozzle 30 by the corrosion means 28 is removed by contacting the copper plate 14 of the remaining portion except for the portion where the photosensitive liquid 8 is formed on the copper plate 14. [35] Then, the copper plate 14 is formed in the same shape as the photosensitive liquid 8 corresponding to the circuit pattern 12 by the corrosion means 28, and the copper plate 14 thus formed is provided in the printed circuit board resin Mainly, a completed flexible printed circuit board is produced. [36] However, the manufacturing process and the manufacturing apparatus of the flexible printed circuit board thus formed attach the circuit diagram film 10 repeatedly used by the high viscosity of the photosensitive liquid 8 provided on the dry film 2 directly to the photosensitive liquid 8. It is not possible to go through the exposure process in the state of being attached on the upper protective film 4 of the dry film 2, wherein the light generated from the above-described exposure means 24 is shown in FIG. 10 is straight, but when passing the upper protective film 4 of the dry film 2, the light is refracted and scattered, so that the precise circuit pattern 12 cannot be realized on the photoresist 8, thereby There was a problem in that miniaturization of the flexible printed circuit board could not be achieved, and thus the overall device could not be miniaturized. [37] In addition, the circuit diagram film 10 is used repeatedly because the same circuit pattern 12 must be formed on a flexible printed circuit board provided in the same type of product, wherein the circuit diagram film 10 is Due to the high viscosity of the photosensitive liquid 8 there is a problem that can not be attached directly to the photosensitive liquid 8 has led to the problems described above. [38] In addition, in the manufacturing process of the conventional flexible printed circuit board as described above, there is a problem in that the production cost increases because the dry film 2 must be purchased and used separately. [39] In addition, since the protective film (4,6) of the upper and lower parts of the dry film (2) by the operator manually separated by hand, it must be inserted between the roller 22 of the pressing means 20, its operation is very inconvenient There was a problem that can not be made, the automation of the work. [40] Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, it is possible to miniaturize and precisely form a circuit pattern on the photosensitive liquid of the copper plate, thereby miniaturizing the flexible printed circuit board In addition, the device to which the flexible printed circuit board is applied can be miniaturized, and the production cost can be reduced by eliminating the use of dry film, which must be purchased separately, and the work process can be automated by simplifying the work process.

[53] The photosensitive liquid 42 dried by the drying means 64 is hardened and loses viscosity, so that the circuit diagram film 44 repeatedly used on the photosensitive liquid 42 can be directly attached. [54] In addition, one side of the drying means 64 is provided with an exposure means 66 made of a light source 68 to form the circuit pattern 46 of the circuit diagram film 44 in the photosensitive liquid 42. [55] The exposure means 66 hardens a portion other than the photosensitive liquid 42 covered by the circuit pattern 46 of the circuit diagram film 44. [56] In addition, the light generated from the light source 68 of the exposure means 66 passes through the circuit diagram film 44 as shown in FIG. 6 and directly contacts the photosensitive liquid 42 to cure the portion. At this time, since the light is straight and no refraction or scattering occurs, the circuit pattern 46 can be precisely formed on the photosensitive liquid 42, thereby miniaturizing the size of the circuit pattern 46.

[68] On the other hand, when manufacturing the flexible printed circuit board according to the present invention made as described above, first, the copper plate 40 for forming the circuit pattern 46 to the printed circuit board resin 78 is attached and fixed. [69] Subsequently, after one surface of the copper plate 40 is positioned at the lower end of the cleaning means 50, and when the cleaning means 50 is operated, a predetermined cleaning liquid is sprayed from the nozzle 52 of the cleaning means 50 to make the copper plate ( The cleaning process to remove the foreign matter on the 40) is performed. [70] The copper plate 40 and the printed circuit board resin 78 washed as described above are gripped by the clipper and elevating means 54 and moved to the immersion means 56 side, and the copper plate moved to the immersion means 56 side as described above. 40 is locked by inserting one surface of the copper plate 40 into the photosensitive liquid 42 stored in the dip container 58 by the lowering of the clipper and the lifting means 54.

Done. [78] Thereafter, when the photosensitive liquid 42 of the copper plate 40 formed corresponding to the circuit pattern 46 is peeled off and removed, one flexible printed circuit board is completed. [79] Accordingly, when the flexible printed circuit board is manufactured, the circuit pattern 46 is precisely formed on the photosensitive liquid 42 of the copper plate 40 by preventing straightening and scattering of light in the exposure means 66 to have straightness.
