能面で非常に有効である。2. Description of the Related Art Various methods for applying a predetermined coating solution to the surface of a flexible support have been studied and performed. Among the various coating methods, for example, an extrusion-type coating apparatus that applies a coating liquid continuously extruded toward a moving support surface with a uniform thickness on the support surface is another type such as a reverse coating apparatus. Compared with roll-type coating methods such as rolls, kiss rolls, and gravure rolls, there are many points that are excellent in coating uniformity, thin film properties, and a possible coating speed range. In addition, the extrusion-type coating method enables simultaneous multi-layer coating by so-called wet-on-wet, and is very effective in terms of cost and performance in the production of high value-added coated products recently.

【発明が解決しようとする課題】しかし、バックロール
上に保持された連続的に走行する支持体上に予め重層さ
れた塗布液を塗布する方法では、バックロールの回転ブ
レ精度が不十分で塗布長手方向に塗布ムラが生じやすく
最適な塗布ができにくかった。However, in the method of applying a coating liquid which has been previously layered on a continuously running support held on a back roll, the rotation deviation of the back roll is insufficient and the coating accuracy is insufficient. Coating unevenness was likely to occur in the longitudinal direction, making it difficult to perform optimum coating.

が著しく損なわれ、時には未塗布部分即ちいわゆる塗布
抜けと呼ばれる故障を生じることがある。[0004] Therefore, without supporting with a back roll,
Extrusion coating is affected by the flatness of the support. In other words, even if the support is deformed to some extent, the effect of the deformation is almost eliminated by wrapping it around the back roll if it is supported by the back roll, but without the support of the back roll, the support is transported to the coater without deformation. Then, the application to the deformed portion remarkably impairs the uniformity of the applied film thickness, and sometimes causes a failure called an uncoated portion, that is, a so-called coating omission.

た。On the other hand, conventionally, a reference is provided for the amount of deformation of the support, and the support is inspected before coating, and only the support having less deformation than the reference is used, or the flatness of the support itself is improved. Only those having good flatness have been used.

的にする。[0006] In order to perform stable and uniform coating without supporting with a back roll as described above, application to a uniform support is premised. However, uneven support in the width direction perpendicular to the direction of transport of the support is still required. I could not cope with body deformation. Therefore, the present invention does not cause uneven coating film thickness and coating omission even if the support has uneven deformation in the width direction, improves product yield, and furthermore, adapts without limiting the support. An object of the present invention is to provide an extrusion-type coating system capable of reducing the amount of defective products by widening the variety of products.
