A peeling device includes a rolling mechanism, a peeling mechanism, and a suction mechanism. The rolling mechanism includes a feeding wheel and a receiving wheel. At least one of the feeding wheel and the receiving wheel is configured to rotate. The peeling mechanism includes a peeling plate including a first surface and a side surface. The suction mechanism includes a support table and a rotary suction cup. A carrier tape is transmitted in sequence around the feeding wheel, the first surface, the side surface, and the receiving wheel. The peeling plate peels the material from the carrier tape at a junction of the first surface and the side surface. The support table holds the material peeled from the carrier tape. The rotary suction cup is used to suck the material from the support table and move the material to a next processing area.

A film-removing apparatus configured to remove a protecting film from a workpiece includes a supporting module configured to support the workpiece, a clamping module configured to clamp the workpiece supported by the supporting module, and a peeling module. The peeling module includes a first peeling member and a second peeling member. The first peeling member includes a bearing surface. The peeling module moves towards the clamping module to bring the bearing surface to below the protecting film, the second peeling member moves towards the protecting film to cooperate with the first peeling member in clamping the protecting member. The peeling module is then moved away from the clamping module to peel off the protecting film.

A film peeling device includes a chamber, a lower stage disposed on a first wall of the chamber, first to fourth grippers capable of peeling first to fourth sides of a film by gripping the first to fourth sides of the film attached to an object disposed on the lower stage and an upper stage disposed on a second wall of the chamber facing the first wall of the chamber and capable of extending in a first direction in which the object is disposed.

A method of peeling off the protective film includes: providing a panel lower sheet, where a protective film is provided on one surface of the plane lower sheet and the protective film has a bending line extending in a first direction parallel to opposing sides thereof; gripping a portion of the protective film; moving the gripped portion of the protective film in a second direction which is a thickness direction thereof; and moving the panel lower sheet in a third direction perpendicular to the bending line.

A label web and method utilize a substrate, first and second longitudinally spaced label arrays each including two or more double-sided adhesive labels removably attached to the substrate, and a peelable protective covering web extending generally coextensive with the substrate. The label arrays and the peelable protective web are configured such that the peelable protective web is selectively removable to expose the first label array while remaining removably attached to the second label array, with both the first and second label arrays remaining removably attached to the substrate, to thereby facilitate removal of all labels in the first label array as a group while the peelable protective covering web remains in place over the second label array.

An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides a method of transferring a micro device. The method of transferring the micro device includes: separating a transferring film from a micro device transferred to a target substrate and bending the transferring film upwardly to form a bent circular arc, and pressurizing an upper transferring film fed after the bent circular arc is formed by a pressurizing roller rotating at an upper side of the target substrate.

A peeling apparatus includes a discarding unit configured to discard a protective member by stacking the protective member in a trash box. The discarding unit includes an inclined dropping unit configured to drop the protective member obliquely downward to an opening of the trash box, and a first inclined plate and a second inclined plate that arranged so as to face each other in a direction orthogonal to a traveling direction of the protective member when the protective member dropping obliquely downward above the opening is viewed from above. The first inclined plate and the second inclined plate are arranged such that a gap through which the protective member can pass is formed between a lower side of the first inclined plate and a lower side of the second inclined plate, and the first inclined plate and the second inclined plate are inclined.

The method of manufacturing a light control element of the present invention includes: removing, in a predetermined portion of a light control film including a first base material with a transparent electrode layer and a second base material with a transparent electrode layer arranged so that transparent electrode layers are opposed to each other, and a liquid crystal light control layer sandwiched between the base materials with transparent electrode layers, one of the base materials with transparent electrode layers; swelling the liquid crystal light control layer remaining in the predetermined portion after the removal of the one of the base materials with transparent electrode layers with an organic solvent; bonding a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape to a surface of the swollen liquid crystal light control layer; and peeling off the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape from the light control film together with the swollen liquid crystal light control layer.
