Method for manufacturing liquid crystal display device and liquid crystal display device

摘要

A method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display device by applying a sealant using a dispenser to form plural seal patterns on a first substrate in a matrix, dropping liquid crystal, bonding a second substrate to the first substrate, and then cutting into individual liquid crystal display devices. A process of forming the seal patterns in a matrix includes (1) a first step of sequentially applying a sealant to one long side and one short side out of four sides of a seal pattern of each liquid crystal display device with a single stroke, and (2) a second step of sequentially applying the sealant to the remaining long side and the remaining short side out of the four sides of the seal pattern of each liquid crystal display device with a single stroke.

1. In a method for manufacturing a liquid crystal display device by applying a sealant using a dispenser to form a plurality of seal patterns on a first substrate in a matrix, dropping liquid crystal, bonding a second substrate to the first substrate, and then cutting the bonded first and second substrates into individual cut liquid crystal display devices, a process of forming the seal patterns in a matrix comprising:
a first step of sequentially applying the sealant as a first seal pattern to one long side and one short side out of four sides of the seal pattern of each to be cut liquid crystal display device with a single stroke; and a second step of sequentially applying the sealant as a second seal pattern to the remaining long side and the remaining short side out of the four sides of the seal pattern of each to be cut liquid crystal display device with a single stroke; wherein the sealant is applied so that the sealant of the first seal pattern applied in the first step and the sealant of the second seal pattern applied in the second step both cross each other and do not cross each other with curved parts at a common boundary between adjacent to be cut liquid crystal display devices, and a radius of curvature R2 of each of the curved parts of the seal patterns adjacent to a crossing portion where the first seal pattern applied by the first step and the second seal pattern applied by the second step cross each other of the common boundary is larger than a radius of curvature R1 of each of the curved parts of the seal patterns adjacent to a non-crossing portion where the first and second seal patterns do not cross each other at the common boundary, and the relationship of the radius of curvature R2 >R1 at the common boundary between the adjacent to be cut liquid crystal display devices prevents each of the seal patterns of the crossing portions from extending to a cutting area after bonding the second substrate to the first substrate.
