Patent ID: 8069893

Claim:
A cutting mechanism for dry film laminator comprising: a main base adapted to be connected to a dry film laminator, the main base having a cutting space defined therein and extending therethrough, the main base having two rollers disposed on a top thereof and oppositely located beside the cutting space, the two rollers adapted to flatly guide a film above the cutting space; a film-carrying device movably disposed on the top of the main base, the film-carrying device including a suction member movably disposed thereon, the suction member being able to move downwardly relative to the main base and adapted to suck the film located above the cutting space, the suction member having at least one annular groove defined in a bottom thereof and adapted to correspond to a shape of a wafer; and a cutting device movably disposed below the main base and corresponding to a location of the cutting space, the cutting device including a film cutter movably disposed on a top thereof, the cutting device including an elevating device movably disposed thereon and connected to the film cutter for moving the film cutter upward/downward through the cutting space relative to the main base, the cutting device including a motor disposed thereon and connected to the elevating device for rotating the film cutter in the cutting space; wherein when the suction member moves downwardly above the cutting space and is adapted to suck the film guided above the cutting space, the film cutter is lifted by the elevating device and penetrates the film to be confined by one of the at least one annular groove in the suction device, the motor driving the film cutter to rotate along the annular groove for cutting the film, the film cutter moving downwardly and separated from the annular groove, the suction member sucking the cut film and moving upwardly with the cut film.
