Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention is an electronic component mounting device that mounts a plurality of electronic components onto a single board based on an NC program in which a component mounting pattern data etc. are written. Regarding.

[Conventional technology]

In recent years, the process of mounting electronic components onto printed circuit boards has been automated by electronic component mounting devices.

This electronic component mounting apparatus has a configuration as shown in FIG. 3, for example.

That is, a plurality of component supply units (2) are arranged on a component supply table (1), and each electronic component storage tape (4) containing all chip-shaped electronic components (3) is placed on a tape reel (6). The units are stored in a rolled-up manner, and a desired unit (2) is guided to a component removal position by movement of the component supply table (1).

The vacuum suction tool (7) supported by the turntable (6) picks up electronic components (
Adsorb 31k, take it out, and put it on the turntable (6)
The electronic component (3) is first transported onto the positioning tool (8), and after correcting the deviation in the XY directions and the rotation angle of the component (3), the electronic component (3) is transferred to the suction tool again. (7), it is transported to the component mounting position and mounted on the printed circuit board tlo+ arranged on the xy child table 9.

By the way, conventionally, some parts PP,'' devices of this type include a plurality of parts supply tables each having a plurality of parts supply units mounted thereon.

For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 64-64399 (HO5K 1
3102), a plurality of parts supply tables that move individually are installed, and only the necessary table among them supplies parts, and the other tables can be moved to the left and right to replenish parts. In particular, in the above-mentioned publication, the safety of the worker can be ensured by preventing the evacuation table from moving when the worker approaches the evacuation table and preventing the supply table from entering the evacuation area.

Furthermore, in the past, one parts supply table was divided into two parts as necessary, and each part operated as an independent parts supply table.
This has the advantage that even if one of the divided parts supply tables is in operation, units can be replaced on the other part supply table.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

By the way, in an electronic component mounting apparatus, when switching to mounting components on a printed circuit board with a different configuration after the current mounting of components on a printed circuit board, there is a need to replace the unit (2) on the component supply table (1), etc. is carried out, but
The time spent on this switching work, so-called set-up work, etc., does not directly contribute to production, so it is necessary to shorten it as much as possible.

However, with the conventional device described above, when setting the component supply unit on the table prior to mounting components on the printed circuit board, it is not known which table will be used, and in particular, the table can be divided into two parts. In the case of electronic component mounting patterns, the operator must provide information such as whether the parts supply table is divided into two parts, and if so, to which table all parts supply units should be set. There is a problem in that this information must be constantly understood from the written NC program, which places a large burden on the operator.

The present invention has been made with these problems in mind, and its purpose is to provide an electronic component mounting apparatus that can easily notify all operators of the usage status of a divisible component supply table. It is about providing.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, in the electronic component mounting apparatus of the present invention, the component supply table is configured with a plurality of divided tables that are removably connected and are each equipped with a plurality of component supply units. The present invention is characterized in that a display bag device for displaying the operation of each table is provided, and a means for driving the display device of the divided table provided with the component supply unit t'' to be used is provided.

[Effect]

In the electronic component mounting apparatus described above, a display device corresponding to the dividing table equipped with a component supply unit used for mounting electronic components onto a printed circuit board is driven, so that an operator can supply components. The usage status of the table can be instantly grasped visually, and setup changes can be carried out quickly.

〔Example〕

One embodiment will be explained using FIG. 1 and FIG. 2.

As shown in Fig. 1, the horizontally long component supply table (1) that can be divided into two is composed of two divided tables CIA), (
The split table (IA) has 50 parts supply units (units N111 to 50) (parts supply unit group consisting of nails).
2A) is installed, and the other split table (IB) niha,
A component supply unit group (2B) consisting of 50 component supply units (2) numbered 51 to 100 is set in unit l'.

Unit group (2B) of this other partitioned table (IB)
When this table (IB) operates independently,
It is treated as unit (2) of unit tkill~-).

The drive control of both the display devices (11A) and (11B) is also performed by the control means in the same way as the control of the divided tables CIA) and (IB).

FIG. 2 shows the basic operating procedure of the control means, and the operation will be explained below using this.

The control means first reads an NC program stored in a memory or the like (step ■), reads the parts supply table from this NC program (step ■ to determine the usage state in 11), and displays the display device (IIA) according to the determination result. ,
CIIB) (step ■)O In other words, when mounting components on the printed circuit board (10),
From the NC program, it is determined which parts supply unit +21 will be used, and this unit (2) is recognized as the divided table CIA), (IB) containing the table to be used, and only one of the divided tables (IA) is used. When using the display separately, only the display device (IIA) should be lit.
When only the other partitioned table (IB) is used separately, only its display device (IIB) is turned on, and when both partitioned tables (LA) and (IB) are used in conjunction, both display devices (IIA ) and CIIB) are both lit.

The operator at this time uses the display device (IIA), CIIB)'
By checking this, the usage status of the table can be instantly grasped, and operations necessary for production, such as replacing the reel (5) in each unit +21, can be performed.

Then, when the production is ordered to start when the work is completed,
The control means shifts to production in step (2), controls each driving means, and mounts the electronic component (3) on the printed circuit board (10).

After such a production process is completed, if there is a new production, the process returns to step (2) and the above-mentioned operation is performed (step (2)).
