Abstract:
A component supply device supplies a component accommodated in a carrier tape including a base tape and a cover tape pasted on the base tape and having a length to a forward end thereof that is longer than that of the base tape. The component supply device includes a tape conveying part, a turning over correcting part, and a peeling part. The tape conveying part conveys the carrier tape along a conveyance path. The turning over correcting part moves the forward end of the cover tape folded to a side opposite to a side of a conveyance direction, to a position located ahead of a forward end of the base tape in the conveyance direction in the conveyance path. The peeling part captures the forward end of the cover tape, and peels off the cover tape from the base tape.
Abstract:
A component mounting system includes an automatic loading-type tape feeder (a component supply unit) being capable of supplying up to N (N is a natural number equal to or larger than 1) carrier tapes for storing a component, and automatically transporting an inserted carrier tape, and a component mounting apparatus which mounts the component supplied from the tape feeder on a substrate, in which a replenishing operation of carrier tape with respect to the tape feeder is detected, and a case where a carrier tape with which the tape feeder is to be replenished is an (N+1)-th is notified to an operator.
Abstract:
A tape feeder (a component supplying device) which transports a carrier tape covered with a cover tape and storing components to a component pick-up position, peels off the cover tape before the component pick-up position, and supplies the stored components to a component mounter, the tape feeder including photo-switch (a detector) which detects presence or absence of tension acting on the cover tape, the cover tape is peeled off from the carrier tape, a feeder storage unit (a storage unit) which stores the presence or absence of tension which is detected by the photo-switch, and an operation determination unit (a determination unit) which determines a processing operation performed when power which is supplied to the tape feeder is reintroduced based on the presence or absence of tension which is detected.
Abstract:
The component mounting device includes a component supply part on which a component supply unit that supplies a component stored in a carrier tape is detachably mounted; a feeder information acquisition part that acquires feeder information including a type of the component supply unit mounted on the component supply part; a component mounting part that mounts the component supplied from the component supply unit onto a substrate; and a unit controller that controls the component supply unit based on the feeder information.
Abstract:
A second tape conveying mechanism 20B includes a sprocket 21B allowed to rotate freely only in a first rotating direction corresponding to a tape conveying direction, and a first urging member 30 which urges and causes a carrier tape 14 to engage the sprocket 21B. When a preceding tape 14(1) engages the sprocket 21B and a subsequent tape 14(2) is inserted, the second tape conveying mechanism 20B abuts against a leading end of the subsequent tape 14(2) to prohibit entry of the subsequent tape 14(2). After the preceding tape 14(2) passes a tape stopper 35a, a position of the second tape conveying mechanism 20B is changed from a tape entry prohibition position to a tape entry permission position.
Abstract:
A component supply apparatus includes a tape conveying path that includes, both on an upstream side thereof: a first conveying route into which a carrier tape is inserted; and a second conveying route that is positioned under the first conveying route, the first conveying route and the second conveying route joining each other to guide traveling of the carrier tape in a downstream direction, a first tape conveying part that sequentially conveys the carrier tape in the tape conveying path present more downstream than a position at which the first conveying route and the second conveying route join each other, to a component taking out position in the tape conveying path, a tape holding part that holds the carrier tape in at least a portion of the first conveying route, a second tape conveying part that conveys the carrier tape held by the tape holding part, in the downstream direction of the tape conveying path, a tape holding releasing mechanism that causes the carrier tape held by the tape holding part to drop from the first conveying route onto the second conveying route. The tape holding releasing mechanism operates by using motivity of a driving source of the second tape conveying part.
Abstract:
A component verification method includes a component ID reading process of reading a component ID corresponding to a stored component of a subsequent tape, a tape insertion detecting process of detecting that the subsequent tape has been inserted into a tape feeder, a feeder specifying process of specifying a tape feeder in which the insertion of the subsequent tape has been detected, a component verifying process of verifying whether or not a correspondence relationship between the read component ID and the specified tape feeder is correct, and a re-verification requesting process of requesting re-execution of the verification to a worker if it is detected that the subsequent tape has fallen from the tape feeder after the component verifying process.
Abstract:
There is provided a tape feeder that feeds a carrier tape to supply components to a component suction position for a mounting head in a component mounting apparatus. The tape feeder includes a first tape feed mechanism which is provided in a downstream side and feeds a preceding tape to the component suction position, and a second tape feed mechanism provided in an upstream side and feeds a following tape from a tape introducing port side toward the first tape feed mechanism. The tape feeder also includes a tape slipping-off informing unit which informs the component mounting apparatus that the following tape is slipped off from the second tape feed mechanism. For example, the tape slipping-off informing unit decides that the following tape is slipped off when a rotation of a sprocket of the second tape feed mechanism in an opposite direction is detected.
