Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a polarizing plate attaching device, and more particularly to an attaching device which can flatten a polarizing plate to a panel. [Prior Art] In the process of manufacturing a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel, it is necessary to perform a procedure of attaching a polarizing plate. Please refer to FIG. 1A, where φ is a schematic diagram of a layered structure of a polarizing plate. The polarizing plate 100 provided by a general material supplier has a structure of a first release paper 11 〇, a body i 3 〇 and a second release paper 140 from top to bottom. The body 130 has a first side surface 132 and a second side surface 134, and the first release paper 11〇 and the second release paper 14〇 are adhered to the first side surface 132 and the second side surface 134, respectively. When attaching, the first release paper 11 is first peeled off to attach the first side 132 of the body 13 viscous to the panel of the LCD. However, since the polarizing plate 100 is composed of three layers of different materials, different materials have respective stresses, so if a layer is torn off, the internal stress balance state is broken, and the shape* is changed. Please refer to FIG. 1B, which is a schematic view showing a polarizing plate after the first release paper in FIG. 1A is torn off. The polarizing plate 1A is torn off the first release paper 110 in FIG. 1A, so that the remaining body 130 and the second release paper 140 are crimped toward the inside to form a negative roll for balancing the lost stress support. . As a result, it has caused troubles in the attachment work. The polarizing plate attaching device currently used has the principle of attaching the polarizing plate from which the first release paper has been torn, and adsorbing thereon by the adsorption platform, and then attaching the polarizing plate to the surface of the panel by using a roller. Please refer to Figures 2A and 2B, which are schematic views of a conventional polarizing plate attaching device. In Fig. 2A, the adsorption platform 250 TW2186PA 5 • 1287124 adsorbs the polarizing plate 1〇0a of the first release paper 110 in Fig. 1B with the sorber 252 of its first surface 254. The roller 230 abuts against the second surface 256 of the suction platform 250 and is in contact with the second release paper 14 。. Referring to Fig. 2B, when attaching, the front end of the adsorption stage 250 is lifted, and the front end of the first side 132 of the polarizing plate i〇〇a is brought into contact with the front end of the panel 270. When the panel handling platform 290 carries the panel 270 in the R1 direction, the roller 230 also rotates synchronously and attaches the polarizing plate 100a to the surface of the panel 270. The polarizing plate i〇〇a, which is originally subjected to stress unevenness as shown in Fig. 1B, is placed on the adsorption stage 25A by the adsorption of Φ by the absorbing device 252, as shown in Fig. 2B. However, when most of the polarizing plates i〇〇a are attached and the trailing end portion is away from the range of the susceptor 252, the tail end portion of the polarizing plate 100a bounces upward due to the negative tilt due to the loss of the downward suction force. The end of the polarizing plate i〇〇a is first adhered to the panel 270. Please refer to Fig. 3A, which is a schematic view showing the attachment of a polarizing plate by a conventional attaching device. Fig. 3B is a partial enlarged view showing the attachment device in Fig. 3A. Referring to Fig. 3A, when the end of the polarizing plate 1 〇〇 3 is separated from the absorbing range of the sorber 252, it may be lifted to adhere the trailing end to the surface of the panel 270. When the position at which the trailing end is adhered is incorrect (for example, offset from the side edge of the panel 27Q) and then rolled by the roller 230, the polarizing plate 100a may generate a bubble or a wrinkled flaw. For the reason of negative warpage, please refer to FIG. 3B. Since the attachment point of the polarizing plate 1〇〇3, that is, the apex of the roller 230, the distance from the first sorbent 2521 is the radius of the roller plus the first suction. The polarizer 1 〇〇a of the distance 25′ of the holder 2521 and the second surface 256 in the range of [r+d] is flattened due to no suction, and may be negatively warped due to uneven internal stress, resulting in attachment. Hey. According to the conventional attachment device, the distance [r+d] between the apex of the roller 230 and the first sorbent 2521 ranges between about 15 mm and 35 mm. That is to say, the length of the end portion of the polarizing plate 100a TW2186PA 6 • 1287124 is about 15 to 35 mm and cannot be attached with a downward suction. Once the attachment process produces fatigue (bubbles or wrinkles), the polarizer must be torn from the panel and voided, and then reattached to a new polarizer on the panel. Since the cost of the polarizing plate is very expensive, the cost ratio of the polarizing plate is significantly increased with the area attached to the panel. Therefore, if the probability of attaching the tape is effectively reduced, the production cost can be effectively reduced. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide an attachment device such that the distance between the attachment point of the polarizing plate and the sorber is significantly reduced to reduce the adhesion of the polarizing plate due to negative tilt. The probability of a disease. According to an object of the present invention, an attachment device is provided, comprising: an adsorption platform and a scraper, the adsorption platform having a first surface and a second surface, the first surface further having a plurality of adsorbers for adsorbing the polarizing plate And the first surface intersects the second surface at an angle, and the intersection has a plurality of suction holes. The scraper is placed on the second surface of the adsorption platform. When the adsorption platform is attached to the polarizing plate, the knife is used to tightly and evenly attach the polarizing plate. The above described objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent and understood. The attaching device allows the polarizing plate to be adsorbed as much as possible during the attaching process to the liquid crystal display panel, thereby reducing the probability of sticking due to the negative enthalpy. The following is a detailed description of the present invention in a preferred embodiment.

Then, the first release paper 11 第一 on the first side surface 132 is removed via a machine device to become the polarizing plate 100a as shown in FIG. 1 b. At this time, the first side surface 132 of the polarizing plate 10a is oriented. A panel 270 is placed on the platform 290. When attaching, the panel handling platform 290 brings the panel 270 to a positioning position, attaches the device and moves toward the panel 27〇 position; then moves (for example, lifts) the front end of the adsorption platform 450, so that the scraper 410 is used to close Polarizing plate 100a. Next, the panel transporting platform 290 is caused to drive the panel 270 in the direction of φ R1 to uniformly attach the polarizing plate 1A to the panel 270. After the attachment is completed, the front end of the adsorption platform 450 will return to the original position, waiting for the next order of the polarizing plate attached. Since the attachment point is located at the top of the blade 41, and the adsorption range extends toward the front end of the adsorption platform 250 by the arrangement of the groove 430, the dead angle of the adsorption range is remarkably reduced, and the polarizing plate 100a is effectively prevented from being attached due to the negative tilt. i. In addition, in the preferred embodiment, the first surface 454 and the second surface 456 of the adsorption platform 450 form an angle Θ, and the angle 0 is less than 90 degrees, so that the blade 410 disposed on the second surface 456 exhibits an inclined state. When the polarizing plate attaching operation is performed, the scraper 410 can smoothly abut against the polarizing plate 1A. However, those skilled in the art to which this embodiment belongs can understand that the technique of the present embodiment is not limited thereto. For example, the angle 0 may be 9 〇, that is, the first surface 454 is perpendicular to the second surface 456. Intersecting, the blade shape can also be integrally formed with the adsorption platform 45〇3. < ~ The polarizing plate attaching device disclosed in the above embodiment of the present invention replaces the roller with a scraper to reduce the distance between the attaching point and the adsorption platform. The scraping material is made of polyester plastic, rubber, or Teflon conductive plastic, but is not limited to the above materials. In addition, a groove is arranged at the front end of the adsorption platform, and the groove is provided
