DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments of the present disclosure may, however, be embodied in different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Like reference numerals may refer to like elements throughout the specification.

In the drawings, the thickness of layers and regions may be exaggerated for clarity. It will also be understood that when an element such as a layer, region or substrate is referred to as being “on” or “onto” another element, it may lie directly on the other element or intervening elements or layers may also be present.

Hereinafter, referring to the drawings, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in further detail.

FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a squeeze apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the squeeze apparatus 1 of FIG. 1.

Referring to FIG. 1, the squeeze apparatus 1 includes a body unit 10 and an injection unit 20.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the body unit 10 may include, inside the body unit 10, a flow path for a printing substance P to be applied to a substrate B. The body unit 10 may include a pair of bodies 11 and a pair of covers 14 that cover both ends of the pair of bodies 11.

As illustrated in FIG. 2, to form a receiving space S to receive the printing substance, receiving grooves 12 may be respectively formed on facing surfaces of the pair of bodies 11. Each of the receiving grooves 12 formed on a respective one of the bodies 11 may be provided in a substantially semi-circular shape. Thus, the receiving space S may be provided in a shape of a cylinder. Since a cylinder-shaped receiving space S is formed, an internal pressure in the receiving space S may be adjusted to be uniform and thereby minimize a loss of the printing substance P.

A supply path 13 may be formed in the body 11 to fluidly communicate with the receiving grooves 12 so as to provide the printing substance P. Although is it not separately illustrated, the supply path 13 is connected with a supplying unit provided outside the body unit 10 to receive the printing substance P. The supply unit may be an additional supplying chamber, a supplying motor, and the like.

Inside the body unit 10, the receiving space S is formed by the receiving grooves 12, and the supply path 13 is formed through the pair of bodies 11. Thus, the receiving space S and the supply path 13 may form the flow path for the printing substance P.

Although the supply path 13 is formed in an upper portion of the body unit 10 to fluidly communicate with the receiving space S in FIGS. 1 and 2, the supply path 13 may be formed on a left side or a right side of the body unit 10.

The covers 14 may be connected with the both ends of the pair of bodies 11, so that the receiving space S formed between the pair of bodies 11 is sealed and the printing substance P is prevented from leaking.

The injection unit 20 may inject the printing substance P by fluidly communicating with the flow path formed inside the body unit 10. The injection unit 20 may include a pair of squeeze members 22 that are connected with the pair of bodies 11, respectively, so as to form a nozzle 21. A surface of each squeeze member 22, facing the substrate B, may be a curved surface. Accordingly, interference between the squeeze members 22 and the substrate B or interference between the squeeze members 22 and a mask M disposed on the substrate B may be prevented while a printing operation is being performed.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the squeeze apparatus 1 may inject the printing substance P via the nozzle 21 of the injection unit 20 by passing through the receiving space S when the printing substance P is supplied to the supply path 13 formed between the pair of bodies 11 of the body unit 10 as illustrated in FIG. 2. In this example, an injection force of the printing substance P may be generated by a supply force associated with a provision of the printing substance P to the receiving space S of the body unit 10. That is, when the printing substance P is supplied to the receiving space S, the printing substance P may be pressed in a direction of the nozzle 21 by adjusting the magnitude of an applied pressure and a flow amount for supplying the printing substance P to the receiving space S.

When the printing substance P is injected via the nozzle 21, the printing substance P may be applied to the substrate B in a predetermined pattern via an opening O of the mask M disposed on the substrate B.

Although FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrates that the printing substance P is injected by a supply force of the printing substance P via the nozzle 21, the printing substance P may be injected by being pressed with an additional pressure unit as illustrated in FIG. 3.

FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a modified squeeze apparatus equipped with a pressure unit 30 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the squeeze apparatus of FIG. 3 to which a printing substance is being supplied.

The pressure unit 30 may include a pressure body 31 and a connecting body 32. The pressure body 31, similar to a piston, is provided inside the receiving space S and is brought into close contact with an internal surface of the receiving grooves 12 provided in the pair of bodies 11, and the connecting body 32 connects the pressure body 31 and a driving source (not separately illustrated). The pressure body 31 may press the printing substance P in a direction of the nozzle 21 by a pressurization force transferred through the connecting body 32.

In this example, unlike the supply path 13 of FIGS. 1 and 2, a supply path 13′ may be formed to fluidly communicate with the receiving space S by penetrating one of the pair of bodies 11. Accordingly, when the printing substance P is supplied to the receiving space S through the supply path 13′, the pressure body 31 of the pressure unit 30 may rise in a direction opposite to the direction of the pressure applied to the printing substance P with a supply force. Also, the supply path 13′ may be controlled to be opened and closed by a valve V.

FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of a modified squeeze apparatus including a supply path 13″ formed in the pressure unit 30 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of the squeeze apparatus of FIG. 5 to which a printing substance is being supplied.

Referring to FIG. 5, inside the modified squeeze apparatus may include the supply path 13″. The supply path 13″ is formed by penetrating the pressure body 31 of the pressure unit 30 and the connecting body 32. In this example, the pressure body 31 may press the printing substance P in a direction of the nozzle 21 with a pressurization force transferred through the connecting body 32, as illustrated in FIG. 5. Referring to FIG. 6, when the printing substance P is supplied through the supply path 13″ that fluidly communicates with the receiving space S by penetrating the pressure body 31 and the connecting body 32, the pressure body 31 may rise in a direction opposite to the direction of the pressure applied to the printing substance P with a supply force.

In this example, both ends of the pair of bodies 211 may be covered by covers, for example, by the covers 14 of FIG. 1. The both ends of the pair of bodies 211 may not be necessarily covered by the covers when the receiving grooves 212 are formed within the pair of bodies 211. The configuration of the body unit 210 may be similar to the body units of FIG. 1 and FIG. 7 and thus, detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted for conciseness.

The injection unit 220 may include a nozzle 221, a pair of squeeze members 222 forming the nozzle 221, and an adjusting member 223. The pair of squeeze members 222 may be connected with the pair of bodies 111, respectively, using a fastening unit 222a, for example, a bolt and the like. In this example, each squeeze member 222 may have a cylindrical shape of which a cross section is a circular shape. A surface of each squeeze member 222, facing the substrate B, may be a curved surface, as illustrated in FIG. 9.

As illustrated in FIG. 9, the adjusting member 223 may adjust an interval between the pair of bodies 211, so as to adjust an amount of the printing substance P injected to the substrate B via the nozzle 221. That is, the adjusting member 223 may adjust the interval between the pair of squeeze members 222 connected with the pair of bodies 211, respectively, by adjusting the interval between the pair of bodies 211.

Here, the adjusting member 223 may have a plate shape to be connected between the pair of bodies 211, such that the adjusting member 223 does not interfere with the receiving space S. An engaging force of the adjusting member 223 with the pair of bodies 211 may be adjusted using an adjusting bolt 223a, thereby adjusting the interval between the pair of bodies 211.

The interval between the pair of bodies 211 may be adjusted by the adjusting member 223, so that the interval between the pair of squeeze members 222 may be adjusted. Thus, an amount of the printing substance P injected to the substrate B via the opening O of the mask M disposed on the substrate B may be adjusted.

Although the shape of the cross section of the squeeze member 222 is illustrated as a circular shape in FIG. 9, it is not limited thereto.

The injection unit 320 may include a pair of squeeze members 322 that are connected with the pair of bodies 311, respectively, so as to form a nozzle 321, as illustrated in FIG. 8. Here, each squeeze member 322 has a cylindrical shape, of which a cross section has a semi-circular shape. In this example, to form the nozzle 321 of FIG. 12, a portion of a facing surface of each squeeze member 322 is formed to have a step structure. Also, as illustrated in FIG. 13, the pair of squeeze members 322 are connected with the pair of bodies 311 respectively, using a fastening unit 322a, such that the fastening unit 322a makes an oblique angle with the pair of bodies 311, so as to guide injection of the printing substance P.

Although the squeeze member 322 has a cylindrical shape, of which a cross section has a semi-circular shape, a region of the nozzle 321 is a curved surface as illustrated in FIG. 13. Thus, interference between the squeeze member 322 and the substrate B or the mask M may be prevented.

Referring to FIG. 14, a portion of each squeeze member 322′ (see the magnified portion in FIG. 14), facing the substrate B, may be rounded in a direction toward an internal region of the nozzle 321.
