Patent ID: 7393554

Claim:
A method for manufacturing a flexible-type luminescent device, comprising the steps of: supplying a flexible body from a flexible body supplying section to a luminescent material pattern forming section on a luminescent device-to-luminescent device basis; forming a luminescent material pattern on said flexible body in said luminescent material pattern forming section; and feeding said flexible body from said luminescent material pattern forming section to a flexible body receiving section on a luminescent device-to-luminescent device basis wherein said flexible body is wound on a first roll in said flexible body supplying section and said flexible body receiving section comprises a second roll, and wherein said flexible body supplying step comprises; feeding said flexible body a distance corresponding to one said luminescent device by driving said first and second rolls at a first speed until a first position detecting mark is detected on said flexible body and driving said first and second rolls at a second speed smaller than said first speed after said first position detecting mark is detected and before a second position detecting mark is detected on said flexible body.
