Tape feeder

A component supply device includes a first peeling gear and a second peeling gear that are provided upstream of a component supply position, catch a cover tape to peel the cover tape from a base tape, and rotate, the second peeling gear coming into contact with the first peeling gear to rotate together with the first peeling gear; a third peeling gear that comes into contact with the first peeling gear to rotate together with the first peeling gear, and together with the first peeling gear, feeds the cover tape fed out by the first peeling gear and the second peeling gear; and a guide part that guides the cover tape peeled off from the base tape by the first peeling gear and the second peeling gear to move toward between the first peeling gear and the third peeling gear.

Component supply device

A component supply device includes an introduction sprocket that rotates with an outer peripheral pin engaged with a feed hole of a carrier tape on a conveyance path, thereby conveying the carrier tape, and a wheel that has a plurality of recesses on an outer periphery, and receives the outer peripheral pin of the rotating introduction sprocket by the recess to rotate in accordance with rotation of the introduction sprocket. A contact surface of the outer peripheral pin contacting an inner surface of the recess and a contacted surface with which the outer peripheral pin contacts out of the inner surface of the recess are both formed of flat surfaces, and the contact surface and the contacted surface come into line contact with each other.

The component supply device includes a body, a first carrier tape transporter, a second carrier tape transporter, and a controller. The body includes a tape transport path. The first carrier tape transporter transports a carrier tape to a component pickup position. The second carrier tape transporter transports the carrier tape to the first carrier tape transporter. The controller is configured to communicate with the component installation device and control the first carrier tape transporter and the second carrier tape transporter in one operation mode selected from a plurality of operation modes.

Component supply device and method for operating component supply device

There is provided a component supply device for supplying a component to a component mounter, including; a transporter that transports a carrier tape in which the component is stored and of which an upper surface is sealed with a cover tape, along a transport path; a peeler that is disposed above the transport path and peels off the cover tape from the carrier tape; and an ejector that ejects a gas for capturing the cover tape by the peeler.

There is provided a component supply device for supplying a component to a component mounter, including: a transporter that transports a carrier tape in which the component is stored and of which an upper surface is sealed with a cover tape, along a transport path; a peeler that peels off the cover tape from the carrier tape via an opening portion disposed above the transport path; and a cover that makes an open state of the opening portion variable. The cover sets the open state of the opening portion to be any of a first open state allowing the peeler to capture the cover tape and a second open state where an opening size of the opening portion is smaller than that of the first open state and passage of the cover tape peeled off from the carrier tape is not impeded.
