Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The belt ply feeder and a feeding method include: when a belt ply is conveyed to the front end of a conveying forming board, a force is exerted by a perpendicular adjustment device to drive a conveying forming board bracket to swing upward and rotate around a pivot shaft of a rack to positions at which the upper surface of the conveying forming board is tangential to the periphery of a belt ply drum. According to this arrangement, the belt ply is tangential to the belt ply drum all the time and a belt ply is in firm contact with a belt ply drum regardless of the size of the belt ply drum when wrapping the belt ply around the belt ply drum. Accordingly, the quality of tire shaping can be improved.

The invention claimed is: 1. A manufacturing method of an incident angle insensitive color filter comprising a substrate, wherein several cylindrical gratings, made of silicon, are arranged in a regular hexagon shape on the substrate which is made of fused quartz; the manufacturing method comprising following steps: (1) obtaining thickness, cylindrical radius and center distance of cylindrical gratings corresponding to central wavelength of the filter to be fabricated; (2) depositing a layer of silicon on the fused quartz substrate and anneal, wherein the thickness of the silicon layer equals to the thickness of the grating; (3) preprocessing an aluminum foil; (4) anodizing the preprocessed aluminum foil twice and obtaining orderly arranged porous alumina, wherein the pore radius equals to the cylindrical radius of gratings and the pore center distance equals to the center distance of cylindrical gratings; (5) spin-coating a layer of polymethyl methacrylate on the porous alumina as the protective layer for removing the aluminum substrate; (6) removing the aluminum substrate in the mixed solution of copper sulfate and hydrochloric acid, cleaning and obtaining a porous alumina template frame coated with a protective layer; (7) using oxygen plasma to bombard the silicon layer with fused quartz substrate, and then fixing the porous alumina template frame onto the silicon layer with fused quartz substrate in step (2); (8) removing the polymethyl methacrylate layer on the porous alumina template frame; (9) atomic layer depositing oxide on the orderly arranged porous alumina template frame; (10) using reactive ion etching to remove the oxide layer covered on the surface of porous alumina; (11) using KOH solution to remove the porous alumina template frame, showing the outline of the required two-dimensional grating which is composed of cylindrical oxide columns orderly arranged in a regular hexagon shape; (12) using reactive ion etching to etch the oxide columns and the silicon layer simultaneously, transferring the two-dimensional grating template to the bottom silicon layer, thus the required two-dimensional grating is made, then using wet etching to remove the residual oxide columns and obtain an incident angle insensitive color filter, wherein the gratings are cylindrical, arranged in regular hexagon and made up of silicon. 2. The manufacturing method of the incident angle insensitive color filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the annealing conditions in step (2) are: rapid annealing under 1000-1100° C. for 15-25 seconds first, then annealing under 550-650° C. for 20-25 hours, and at last annealing under 850-950° C. for 15-25 hours. 3. The manufacturing method of the incident angle insensitive color filter as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the annealing conditions in step (2) are: rapid annealing under 1050° C. for 20 seconds first, then annealing under 600° C. for 24 hours, and at last annealing under 900° C. for 20 hours. 4. The manufacturing method of the incident angle insensitive color filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the aluminum foil in step (3) is high purity aluminum foil of 99.999%. 5. The manufacturing method of the incident angle insensitive color filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the oxides are titanium dioxide, hafnium dioxide or tantalum pentoxide. 6. The manufacturing method of the incident angle insensitive color filter as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the oxides are titanium dioxide. 7. The manufacturing method of the incident angle insensitive color filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the reactive ion etching conditions in step (12) are: the volume flow rate of carbon tetrafluoride is 20-30 sccm, and the volume flow rate of oxygen is 3-6 sccm. 8. The manufacturing method of the incident angle insensitive color filter as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the reactive ion etching conditions are: the volume flow rate of carbon tetrafluoride is 25 sccm, and the volume flow rate of oxygen is 3.1 sccm. 9. A manufacturing method of an incident angle insensitive color filter comprising a substrate, wherein several cylindrical gratings, made of silicon, are arranged in a regular hexagon shape on the substrate which is made of fused quartz, and wherein the gratings are perpendicular to the substrate, the thickness of the gratings is 70-200 nm, the cylindrical radius of the gratings is 40-90 nm, and the center distance between the cylindrical gratings is 100-280 nm; the manufacturing method comprising the following steps: (1) obtaining thickness, cylindrical radius and center distance of cylindrical gratings corresponding to central wavelength of the filter to be fabricated; (2) depositing a layer of silicon on the fused quartz substrate and anneal, wherein the thickness of the silicon layer equals to the thickness of the grating; (3) preprocessing an aluminum foil; (4) anodizing the preprocessed aluminum foil twice and obtaining orderly arranged porous alumina, wherein the pore radius equals to the cylindrical radius of gratings and the pore center distance equals to the center distance of cylindrical gratings; (5) spin-coating a layer of polymethyl methacrylate on the porous alumina as the protective layer for removing the aluminum substrate; (6) removing the aluminum substrate in the mixed solution of copper sulfate and hydrochloric acid, cleaning and obtaining a porous alumina template frame coated with a protective layer; (7) using oxygen plasma to bombard the silicon layer with fused quartz substrate, and then fixing the porous alumina template frame onto the silicon layer with fused quartz substrate in step (2); (8) removing the polymethyl methacrylate layer on the porous alumina template frame; (9) atomic layer depositing oxide on the orderly arranged porous alumina template frame; (10) using reactive ion etching to remove the oxide layer covered on the surface of porous alumina; (11) using KOH solution to remove the porous alumina template frame, showing the outline of the required two-dimensional grating which is composed of cylindrical oxide columns orderly arranged in a regular hexagon shape; (12) using reactive ion etching to etch the oxide columns and the silicon layer simultaneously, transferring the two-dimensional grating template to the bottom silicon layer, thus the required two-dimensional grating is made, then using wet etching to remove the residual oxide columns and obtain an incident angle insensitive color filter, wherein the gratings are cylindrical, arranged in regular hexagon and made up of silicon.
