<p>PURPOSE:To obtain the apparatus for producing liquid crystal substrates which can prevent the damage of the liquid crystal substrates at the time of alignment by pinching the four sides of the liquid crystal substrates with contact members consisting of high-polymer members and aligning the substrates at the time of aligning the square liquid crystal substrates. CONSTITUTION:The LCD substrates 1 housed into a substrate cassette 2 are transferred successively from the lowermost step onto a transporting belt 4 by a substrate taking out mechanism 3 and are transported onto a substrate platforming plate 7. The plate 7 is raised by a lifting mechanism and the substrate 1 is supported by 4 pieces of supporting members 9 projectingly provided on the plate 7. The substrate 1 and the contact members 11 of the four cylinders 10 disposed on the plate 7 are positioned flush with each other and the respective cylinders 10 are extended to press the members 11 to the respective sides of the substrate 1, by which the substrate 1 is aligned. The respective members 11 are constituted of the high-polymer members and do not damage the substrate 1 even if the members come into contact with the substrate 1. The substrate 1 is thereafter transported by a cruciform substrate transporting arm 12 into a treating chamber 13.</p> |
