A litho laminating machine has an accelerator table (20), the table (20) being moveable between an operating position and a raised maintenance position, the table (20) being supported on a frame (24) with a bearing (22) defining a pivot axis (P), a lifting device (30, 40) being provided which comprises a spring element (30) biasing the table (20) towards the maintenance position, and an actuator (40) for moving the table (20) from the operating position towards the maintenance position.

There is provided a technique that readily performs positioning of a joining member relative to a strip member during conveyance. A joining device 100 joins a gas diffusion layer 7 with a first catalyst electrode layer 2 of a strip body 5r which is a continuous strip member of a membrane electrode assembly 5, while conveying the strip body 5r. A controller 101 of the joining device 100 obtains a detection time t.sub.d based on a detection signal of a catalyst layer detector 130 when a front end 3e of a second catalyst electrode layer 3 placed on the strip body 5r passes through a detection point DP. The controller 101 subsequently obtains a joining position reach time t.sub.t based on the detection time t.sub.d when the gas diffusion layer 7 reaches a press point PP of joining rollers 152. The controller 101 starts conveying the gas diffusion layer 7 by means of a transfer at a conveying start time t.sub.s that is obtained based on the joining position reach time t.sub.t and a specified speed pattern of the transfer 141.

The present disclosure describes a blood oxygenator that includes a checkerboard layout of fluid (e.g., blood) and gas (e.g., oxygen) channels. When viewed as a cross-section through each of the channels of the oxygenator, the checkerboard configuration includes alternating gas and fluid channels in both the x-axis (e.g., in-plane) and in the y-axis (e.g., out-of-plane) directions. The oxygenator described herein reduces manufacturing complexity by using first, second, and third polymer layers that include asymmetrical channel designs. The channel designs include “open” gas channels, which are exposed to the ambient atmosphere. The oxygenator is placed within a pressure vessel to drive gas into each of the open gas channels, which in some implementations, negates the need for a gas manifold.

Provided is a method of manufacturing a metal catalyst support including: transferring a plate member of the same size along a transfer unit; aligning the plate member so that a front portion of the plate member is located at a start point when the plate member reaches a set position; forming a corrugated plate by alternately forming a first corrugated portion and a second corrugated portion on the plate member which is aligned at the start point; and laminating the fabricated corrugated plates and the flat plates alternately in a case.

A computer-implemented method for optical element fabrication with optical scanner feedback includes initiating the optical scanner to obtain an optical measurement of an optical layer of a multi-layer film. A rotational orientation for an optical element that is to be cut from the multi-layer film is then determined based on the optical measurement. The method also includes initiating a cutting instrument to cut the optical element from the multi-layer film at the rotational orientation.

A manufacturing apparatus of a display device includes a first jig configured to hold a first member; a second jig located under the first jig and coupled to or separated from the first jig such that the first member is locatable between the first jig and the second jig; fixing parts located at both ends of the second jig and configured to hold a second member between the first member and the second jig, the second jig including a pad; and a stage located under the pad and provided with a groove formed therethrough and having an area smaller than an area of the pad when viewed in a plan view, wherein one portion of the pad, which faces the stage, is configured to be within the groove.

The present invention provides a system for the manufacture of membrane electrode assemblies, comprising: a first carriage traversable along a first track, the first carriage having a support platform; a second carriage traversable along a second track, the second carriage having a support platform; sheet supplying means for supplying sheets comprising a gas diffusion layer onto the support platforms of the carriages; and supply means for supplying a continuous web comprising an ion-conducting membrane between at least a portion of the first and second tracks, wherein the system is arranged to align the first and second carriages either side of the continuous web with the support platforms of the first and second carriages facing the continuous web, whereby the system is suitable for adhering sheets carried thereby to opposite sides of the continuous web in an aligned configuration.

A bonding device for attaching a curved cover plate with an irregular shape to a flexible screen includes: a first attaching half having a first abutting wall, a second half, and a driving component. The first abutting wall includes a first curved wall and a first flat wall. The first curved wall matches with an inner surface of the arc hook area, and the first flat wall is smoothly connected to the first curved wall. The second attaching half has a second abutting wall. The second abutting wall includes a second curved wall and a second flat wall. The second curved wall matches with an inner surface of the arc hook area. The second flat wall is smoothly connected to the second curved wall. The driving component drives the first attaching half and the second attaching half to move relative to each other.

Provided is a display device. The display device comprises: a display module including a display panel, wherein the display panel includes a display area having a plurality of pixels and an alignment mark area surrounded by the display area, and a display driver driving at least one of the plurality of pixels in the alignment mark area to form an alignment mark; and a stereoscopic lens including a base disposed on the display module, a plurality of lenses disposed on the base at an angle offset from a side of the display module, and a marking portion formed on one or more of the plurality of lenses to overlap the alignment mark area.

A laminator for high-precision solvent-bonding of retardation films is disclosed. The laminator is capable of producing laminates with high orientation repeatability and low in-plane stress which can otherwise create gaps between optimum theoretical performance and that which is physically realizable. Batch-mode laminators are scalable to large area mother-sheets and are suited to high-throughput manufacturing.
