The present disclosure provides a production method for laminated glass. The production method includes the following steps: loading laminated glass into a vacuum inlet chamber, evacuating to a first vacuum pressure, and transferring the glass at a high speed; transferring the glass to a vacuum inlet buffer chamber, and evacuating to a second vacuum pressure; transferring the glass to a vacuum inlet transfer chamber, reducing the transfer speed for low-speed transfer, and evacuating to a third vacuum pressure; transferring the glass to a vacuum heating chamber, maintaining a third vacuum pressure, and heating; transferring the glass to a vacuum cooling chamber, maintaining a third vacuum pressure, and cooling; transferring the glass to a vacuum outlet transfer chamber, maintaining a third vacuum pressure, and increasing the transfer speed for high-speed transfer; transferring the glass to a vacuum outlet buffer chamber, and dropping a vacuum pressure to a second vacuum pressure; transferring the glass to a vacuum outlet chamber, dropping a vacuum pressure to a first vacuum pressure, and outputting finished laminated glass. The laminated glass produced by the present disclosure has a high yield and low energy consumption.

The present disclosure provides continuous vacuum production equipment for laminated glass. The production equipment includes a vacuum inlet chamber, a vacuum inlet buffer chamber, a vacuum inlet transfer chamber, a vacuum heating chamber, a vacuum cooling chamber, a vacuum outlet transfer chamber, a vacuum outlet buffer chamber and a vacuum outlet chamber, which are sequentially connected. A valve is provided between every two adjacent chambers to control communication of the two adjacent chambers. The laminated glass produced by the present disclosure has a high yield and low energy consumption. Compared with a traditional production line includes two independent processes, the present disclosure increases the production efficiency for tens to hundreds of times. In addition, the present disclosure has a wide application range, and it is suitable for flat, single-curved and multi-curved laminated glass.

Devices, methods, and systems for two-phase thermal management are provided in accordance with various embodiments. For example, a two-phase thermal management device is provided that may include two or more containment layers and/or one or more porous layers positioned between at least a portion of each of the two or more containment layers. The portion of each of the two or more containment layers and the one or more porous layers may be bonded with each other. The two or more containment layers and one or more porous layers may be bonded with each other to form an uninterrupted stack of material layers utilizing diffusion bonding. Some embodiments include a method of forming a two-phase thermal management device including arranging multiple materials layers including one or more porous layers positioned with respect to one or more containment layers; and/or bonding the multiple material layers with each other.

Described herein are organosilicon modification layers and associated deposition methods and inert gas treatments that may be applied on a sheet, a carrier, or both, to control van der Waals, hydrogen and covalent bonding between a sheet and carrier. The modification layers bond the sheet and carrier together such that a permanent bond is prevented at high temperature processing as well as maintaining a sufficient bond to prevent delamination during high temperature processing.

A polymeric film is provided, the film comprising one or more land portions that are substantially coplanar in a base plane and a plurality of distended portions separated from one another by the one or more land portions. The distended portions bow distally outward from the base plane. The polymeric film further comprises a plurality of annular micro-protrusions extending outward from the distal film surface, each protrusion having an apex. A portion of the plurality of annular micro-protrusions extends from each of the one or more land portions of the polymeric film and from each of the distended portions of the polymeric film.

Systems and methods are provided for vacuum handling of composite parts. One embodiment is a method for performing vacuum securement of an object. The method includes covering the object with an impermeable membrane, locating a vacuum port at the impermeable membrane, and applying a negative pressure to the vacuum port that offsets air leaks between the impermeable membrane and the object.

A lamination apparatus, system, and method. The apparatus, system and method are for a lamination press for laminating at least one laminating film to a subject, which may include: an upper press comprising a gel plate, an upper vacuum chamber, and tooling suitable to apply the laminating film; a lower press suitable to maintain the subject to receive the laminating film, and comprising a lower vacuum chamber, an air bearing stage, and servo-positioned tooling; and an aligner that applies the servo-positioned tooling to maintain positional balance and alignment of the subject by the air bearing stage during the laminating while enabling vertical flexure of the lower press, wherein the positional balance and alignment is substantially continuously monitored by a controller.

A display module manufacturing apparatus includes a stage on which a display module is disposed, a heater disposed on the stage, and configured to heat a first area of the display module, and wherein the heater includes a plurality of side surfaces and a contact surface, and a first bump controller detachably coupled to one side surface among the plurality of side surfaces and including a first bottom surface facing an upper surface of the stage. The contact surface is closer to the upper surface of the stage than the first bottom surface.

A housing assembly, a method for manufacturing the housing assembly, and an electronic device are provided according to the present disclosure. The housing assembly includes a housing body and a flexible film layer. The housing body has a bottom portion and at least one side wall connected with an outer edge of the bottom portion, and each of the at least one side wall and the bottom portion cooperatively define a bending angle larger than 70 degrees. The flexible film layer is disposed on a first surface of the housing body, and the flexible film layer has an elongation at break higher than or equal to 150%.
