An electronic component transferring device for transferring electronic components, including a plurality of rotary members rotatable about a common axis independently of each other, a rotary motion generating device for generating rotary motions of the rotary members about the common axis over a full 360.degree. angular range such that each rotary member is stopped at each predetermined stop position during one full rotation thereof and such that the rotary members are stopped at each stop position at different times, and a plurality of component holder heads which are carried by the rotary members, respectively, and which hold the respective electronic components. The apparatus may be suitably used in an electronic component mounting system. Also disclosed are a method of transferring the electronic components and a method of mounting the electronic components.

A method and an apparatus for automatically mounting, on printed circuit boards, non-lead electronic components which are stored mutually independently within a multiplicity of apertures equally spaced longitudinally in a strip member and is covered with a covering tape. The covering tape is separated first by a covering tape separating assembly from the strip member so as to uncover a leading one of the apertures. A leading portion of the strip member including the uncovered leading aperture is cut off the strip member by a severing assembly consecutively. A plurality of the leading portions cut off the strip members respectively storing different kinds of components are arranged on a transfer element of a transfer assembly in a desired order and transferred to a fixed position by the transfer member. Each component stored in the cut-off leading portions is picked up, transferred and mounted on a printed circuit board one by one. The uncovered and cut-off leading portion is utilized as a part of the transfer assembly.

Method and a system for inserting electronic components. The system is composed of an electronic-component inserting machine for inserting electronic components to a printed circuit board and an electronic-component supplying machine, which comprises a plurality of cartridges, being two kinds according to the radial and axial type of the electronic components, for containing each kind of electronic components, detachably attached to a table. The method and system are characterized in being capable of supplying components free-selectively, of radial and axial type and of different lead wire gage, in a desired order, regardless of arbitrary supply arrangement of electronic components, with a single system. While the electronic components of desired type and gage are inserted, the then non-desired type and gage of electronic components are automatically suspended from being supplied in the same system.

A magnetic strip is first driven around one end of a mandrel by a plurality of cam operated pins slidably extending through a rotary member and is then moved along a spiral guiding piece disposed around the mandrel until the strip passes through a cutter in its inoperative position. Then the strip enters a push plate slidably mounted on the mandrel and travels along a spiral path therein to be spirally wound around the mandrel. When a predetermined length of the strip passes through the cutter, the cutter cuts the strip and the push plate is moved along the mandrel to shift the wound strip to a carrier abutting against the mandrel for readiness for the next working operation.

A method of inserting and fixing, by means of a machine, lead wires of the electronic components to a printed circuit board having a number of lead-wire-inserting holes, wherein a movable member relative to the printed circuit board is abutted to an electronic component which is already planted (or inserted) in the neighboring space of the targeted lead-wire-inserting holes for the component-to-be-planted, in order to slightly push away the already planted component for clearing or expanding the neighboring space, by means of causing a deformation to the lead wires of the already planted component. This invention includes the provision of apparatuses for realizing the above-mentioned method into practical use.
