Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for glueing together thin disc elements, especially substrates for digital audio, video or computer discs, such as compact discs or digital video discs.
- two substrate sics of polycarbonate with a thickness of 0.6 mm are normally glued together, with the information layer(s) adjacent to the layer of adhesive joining the discs.
- the adhesive is applied to one of the discs by means of a printing process, for example screen printing, whereafter the discs are brought together.
- a printing process for example screen printing
- This method does not waste the adhesive and the application can be carried out very rapidly.
- One purpose of the present invention is to suggest a glueing method which prevents the occurrence of excess adhesive and air enclosures in the adhesive layer between the discs.
- the process according to the invention is characterized by the following steps: a) applying an adhesive to one side of a first disc element, b) applying a second disc element centered and aligned with the adhesive coat element, c) that the disc elements are pressed together in a press unit, and d) that a thin adhesive layer formed by compression between the disc elements is cured.
- the curing of the adhesive layer can be effected in the press unit and/or at a location outside it, for example by irradiating the adhesive layer with ultraviolet light.
- a radially outer annular edge area of the disc elements are subjected to UV light during the com ⁇ pression phase of the disc element, whereby the adhseive is immediately cured at the outer and inner peripheral areas, thereby effectively preventing adhesive from leaking out from the gap between the disc elements.
- the present invention also relates to a device for glueing together thin disc elements, especially substrates for digital audio, video or computer discs, such as compact discs or digital video discs.
- the device is characterized by a pressure chamber housing comprising; firstly, a bottom plate supporting one side of the disc elements which are laid centered and coinciding on top of each other, secondly, a flexible pressure membrane, arranged to be able to lie in contact against the other side of the disc elements, thirdly, a cover which, together with the membrane defines a pressure chamber, and fourthly, means for pressurizing the pressure chamber with a pressure medium.
- the cover or the bottom plate is made transparent to permit UV irradiation of the adhesive layer between the disc elements which have been pressed together.
- This device provides an effectively coordinated glueing together and curing of the disc elements without any problem with excess adhesive and air enclosures.
- Figure 1 shows schematically a cross-section through a pressing device for glueing together two disc elements according to a first embodiment of the invention, in a phase immediately prior to pressing together;
- Figure 2 shows schematically a second embodiment of the device according to the invention.
- FIG. 10 generally designates a pressing unit intended for glueing together two relatively thin (0.6 mm thick) disc substrates 12 of polycarbonate for digital so-called DVDs.
- the press unit 10 comprises a bottom plate 14. a pressure chamber wall 16, a cover 18 and a flexible pressure membrane 20 fixed in the wall 16.
- the cover 18 and the membrane 20 are made transparent for ultraviolet light.
- a pressure chamber 22 designed to be pressurized with compressed air for example via an inlet 24.
- the diaphragm or screen 26 for UV light is associated with the press unit 10. It can be integrated with the press unit 10 or with a UV light source (not shown). The diaphragm 26 can provide desired screening off of UV light directed towards the press unit 10 when curing an adhesive layer between the disc substrates 12.
- the device in Figure 1 is intended to be used in the following manner.
- This adhesive application phase can be carried out either in a separate step outside the press unit or in the same.
- the cover 18 is thereafter put in place and an external compressed air source (not shown) is connected, whereupon compressed air is fed into the pressure chamber 22 via the inlet 24 to exert a suitably adapted pressure on the flexible membrane 20 for the desired compression of the disc substrates 12 so that the adhesive 20 is pressed out towards an outer peripheral edge 30 of the substrates 12 and in towards an inner edge 32 or to an annular groove (not shown) located somewhat radially outwards from said edge 32.
- This annular groove is normal in CDs. Direcdy after the compression phase, when a uniform, homogeneous and air enclosure free adhesive layer is formed between the disc substrates 12, the adhesive layer is subjected to UV light via the transparent cover 18 in the membrane 20 as shown by the arrows A in Figure 1 for curing of the adhesive layer. It is, however, an advantage during the compression phase to allow a portion of the adhesive curing UV light to irradiate the outer and inner adhesive layer limiting edge areas 30, 32 of the disc substrates 12. so that the adhesive layer is thereby rapidly cured at these edge areas to prevent leakage of adhesive when the discs are pressed together.
- This edge irradiation of the adhesive layer with UV light is indicated with the arrows B in Figure 1 and can be achieved by the diaphragm 26 blocking off further UV light A until the edge areas of the adhesive layer have been cured, whereafter the diaphragm 26 can be opened or removed to UV irradiate the rest of the adhesive layer.
- the disc substrates 12 can then be removed from the press unit 10 and possibly be after cured in another location if so required.
- the glueing process can then be repea ⁇ ted.
- FIG. 2 shows an alternative embodiment of the press unit 10 according to the invention.
- the difference in principle is only that the bottom plate 12 in this case is transparent and that the UV rays A, B come from below, and the flexible membrane 20 can be made in a material which is not penetrable by UV light, since it is on the side of the disc substrate 12 remote from the UV source.
- the invention is not limited to the embodiments described above. Rather, it can be varied within the scope of the following claims.
