Abstract

A plate structure and method of manufacturing a plate structure, the plate structure including a first plate; an optical laminate on the first plate, the optical laminate including an optical plate on the first plate and a film dam along a top periphery of the optical plate; a second plate on the optical laminate; and a resin layer in a space provided by the film dam, the resin layer attaching the optical plate to the second plate.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method of manufacturing a plate structure that includes a first plate and a second plate, the method comprising:
providing an optical structure that includes an optical plate and a protective film on the optical plate;
pressing the optical plate of the optical structure on the first plate;
forming an optical laminate such that the optical laminate includes the optical plate and a film dam on a top periphery of the optical plate;
coating resin in a space provided by the film dam;
attaching the second plate onto the optical laminate using the resin; and
curing the resin,
wherein the film dam includes a light transmitting material and the resin includes a photocurable resin, and
wherein:
the protective film includes:
a first portion on the top periphery of the optical plate,
a second portion different from the first portion, and
a cutting line between the first portion and the second portion,

forming the optical laminate includes removing the second portion of the protective film,
the second portion includes:
a first pattern on the optical plate except for the top periphery,
a knob pattern, and
a second pattern on the top periphery of the optical plate, the second pattern connecting the first pattern to the knob pattern, and

forming the optical laminate includes removing the second portion by using the knob pattern.

2. A method of manufacturing a plate structure that includes a first plate and a second plate, the method comprising:
providing an optical structure that includes an optical plate and a protective film on the optical plate;
pressing the optical plate of the optical structure on the first plate;
forming an optical laminate such that the optical laminate includes the optical plate and a film dam on a top periphery of the optical plate;
coating resin in a space provided by the film dam;
attaching the second plate onto the optical laminate using the resin; and
curing the resin,
wherein:
the protective film includes:
a first portion on the top periphery of the optical plate,
a second portion different from the first portion, and
a cutting line between the first portion and the second portion,

forming the optical laminate includes removing the second portion of the protective film,
the second portion includes:
a first pattern on the optical plate except for the top periphery,
a knob pattern, and
a second pattern on the top periphery of the optical plate, the second pattern connecting the first pattern to the knob pattern, and

forming the optical laminate includes removing the second portion by using the knob pattern.
