An object of the invention is to provide an electronic component mounting device and a work method of the electronic component mounting device, capable of ensuring safety of an operator who accesses a work line through a door portion, and avoiding reduction of workability. A space defined by a base () and a cover member () is partitioned by a partition member () to define a plurality of work line storing spaces (SP). A plurality of work lines () are stored in the respective work line storing spaces (SP) individually. When any of a plurality of door portions () provided in the cover member () so as to allow an access to an inside of the respective work line storing spaces (SP) is opened, an operation of a work line () stored in a work line storing space (SP) accessible through the opened door portion () is stopped.

A mounting headincludes shaft membersrespectively provided with suction nozzles, rotation driving motorsfor individually conducting rotary movements of the shaft members, and vertical movement driving motorswhich are arranged in a staggered arrangement in an opposite direction to a staggered arrangement of the shaft members, and adapted to individually conduct vertical movements of the shaft members. The rotation driving motorsdirectly drive the shaft members, and the vertical movement driving motorsmove the shaft membersup and down, together with the rotation driving motors

Mounting head and component mounting apparatus

In the separation of a cover tapefrom a carrier tapeperformed by a cover tape separating mechanism, a cover tape, which is separated from a base tapeby a separating blade edge, comes into contact with a concave conical surface, so that one side portion of a cover tapeis bent toward the other side portion; and the bent cover tapeis pressed against a guide surfacefrom below while the carrier tapeis guided to a pick-up position. Accordingly, the cover tapeis folded on the base tapein a flat shape.

Tape feeder and method of mounting tape on tape feeder

A tape feeder includes a guide part that guides a carrier tape and is detachably attached to a main body. The guide part includes: a lower member guiding the carrier tape and attached to and detached from the main body; an upper member pressing down the carrier tape from above; a tape introduction part guiding the carrier tape into the upper member at an upstream side thereof in a tape feed direction; a confirmation opening part disposed in the upper member for visually confirming that the carrier tape arrives at a pin engagement range; an open/close mechanism opening and closing the upper member with respect to the lower member; and a positioning mechanism fitting a positioning pin into a feed hole of the carrier tape in the guide part, thereby positioning the carrier tape relative to the guide part in the tape feed direction.

In the substrate-bottom receiving mechanismof the lane A transporting conveyorA and lane B transporting conveyorB of the electronic component mounting device, on the rectangular-plate-shaped bottom receiving platethat holds the bottom receiving pinssuch that the bottom receiving position can be adjusted there is a rotating holding partthat rotates around pivotal shaft; the holding parts, which normally do not protrude over the upper surface and which protrude over the upper surface to be grasped only in the fetching operation by the operator, are arranged on the end surfaces on the upstream side and downstream side with respect to the substrate transporting direction of the bottom receiving plate, respectively; and the operator can hold the rotating holding partto remove the bottom receiving plate

Electronic component mounting device

In a structure that exfoliation is performed in the pitch sending of a carrier tape () by making a cover tape exfoliating mechanism () intervene between joining surfaces of a base tape () and a cover tape (), in an exfoliation start position where an exfoliating knife tip () of an acuminate shape, which is provided at a front end, starts to exfoliate the joining surface, a lower guide member (), which guides the carrier tape () from below, is pushed up from the bottom side by a lever member (), and when the carrier tape () is installed, the carrier tape () is pushed up together with the lower guide member () to make the exfoliating knife tip () in the exfoliation start position to be aligned to the joining surfaces and enter between the joining surfaces.

Tape feeder and a tape installing method in the tape feeder

A positioning mechanism, which determines the relative position of a carrier tapein a tape feed direction by fitting alignment pinsto feed holesin a lower member, and a cover tape separating mechanism, which is provided on an upper memberand exposes electronic componentsstored in component pocketsby separating a cover tapefrom a base tape, are provided at non-interference positions that do not interfere with each other when the upper memberis closed to the lower member. Accordingly, when the cover tapeis separated from the carrier tape, the carrier tapeis aligned with the guide section

An object of the invention to provide a screen printing machine allows, during maintenance work for one printing device, the other printing device to continue its screen printing work, and a method for controlling an inside temperature of a screen printing machine. A space surrounded by a base () and a cover member () is divided into two portions by a partition member (), and two printing devices () are accommodated in two working compartments (), respectively, which are defined by the base (), the cover member () and the partition member (), whereby temperature-controlled air is blown into each of the working compartments () via an air pipe () which branches into two air vents () opened to the respective working compartments ().

A substrate conveyor track is provided with first to fourth conveyors. Two conveyors situated on both sides of the substrate conveyor track, and the other two conveyors situated at the center of the same. There is enabled selection of any one from a small substrate mounting mode for giving a single substrate conveyance width to the four conveyors and mounting electronic components on four small substrates having the single width; a large substrate mounting mode for actuating all movable conveyors to the center of the substrate conveyor track and mounting electronic components on two large substrates by the two conveyors; and a large-small-substrates mounting mode for bringing the two conveyors on one side of the substrate conveyor track, among the four conveyors, into the small substrate mounting mode and bringing one of the conveyors on the other side of the track into the large substrate mounting mode.

A component mounting apparatus includes one head unit which has a component holding member capable of holding a component and which is selected from among a plurality of types of head units according to a type of the fed component, a head moving unit which has a head fitting portion onto which the selected one head unit is removably loaded and which moves the head unit loaded on the head fitting portion in a direction extending generally along a surface of the board, and a head control unit which is provided for each of the head units and which performs control for component mounting operation by a head unit corresponding to the loaded head unit.

Component mounting apparatus

The present invention is intended to realize a hold posture inspection of a plurality of components sucked by a plurality of nozzle rows provided on a head with a single scanning operation, thereby reducing the time for the hold posture inspection and improving the accuracy thereof. In order to achieve such objections, the present invention includes: a head on which at least two nozzle rows are disposed, each of which includes at least one nozzle; a circuit board holding unit for holding a circuit board on which components conveyed by the head are mounted; and an inspection unit, provided on a moving path of the head from a supplying unit to the circuit board holding unit, for inspecting hold postures of the components held by the nozzles of the head and including sensors for posture inspection independent for the respective nozzle rows.

A component mounting apparatus having a work conveyor-positioner unit is arranged on a supporting base to convey and position a substrate in an X direction. Supporting frames extend vertically from ends of the supporting base and face each other in a Y direction. The component mounting apparatus further includes a plurality of Y-axis tables extending between upper ends of the supporting frames, X-axis tables attached to movable portions of the Y-axis tables, and operating heads attached to movable portions of the X-axis tables to perform operations with respect to the substrate on the work conveyor-positioner unit.
