Description

本発明は、真空吸着したセラミック基板等のワークに、クリームはんだを印刷するクリームはんだ印刷装置に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a cream solder printing apparatus for printing cream solder on a workpiece such as a vacuum-adsorbed ceramic substrate.

従来、クリームはんだ印刷においては、印刷時におけるワークの位置ズレを防止するため、ワークを機械的に固定するか、若しくは、真空吸着して固定する。真空吸着による固定では、ワークを吸着面に密着させ、その間に負圧を発生させることによってワークを保持する。それ故、十分な固定力を得るには、ワークと吸着面との密着性や真空発生装置の吸込み能力が重要となる。   Conventionally, in cream solder printing, in order to prevent the positional deviation of the workpiece during printing, the workpiece is mechanically fixed or fixed by vacuum suction. In fixing by vacuum suction, the work is held by bringing the work into close contact with the suction surface and generating a negative pressure therebetween. Therefore, in order to obtain a sufficient fixing force, the adhesion between the workpiece and the suction surface and the suction capability of the vacuum generator are important.

しかしながら、ワークの反りや凹凸などにより、吸着面との密着が不十分な場合や、ワークにスルーホール等の穴が形成されている場合には、密着の不十分な箇所やスルーホールからエア漏れが発生してしまい、十分な固定力が得られない。   However, if the workpiece is not sufficiently adhered to the suction surface due to warpage or unevenness, or if a hole such as a through hole is formed in the workpiece, air leaks from the insufficiently adhered portion or through hole. Will occur and a sufficient fixing force cannot be obtained.

さらに、エア漏れの影響により、印刷時に、クリームはんだが吸込まれる不具合が発生する。不具合の形態には、印刷マスクとワークとの間にクリームはんだが印刷形状よりも大きく広がるにじみやダレ、隣接するはんだ同士がつながるブリッジなどがある。   Further, due to the influence of air leakage, there is a problem that cream solder is sucked during printing. The forms of defects include bleeding and sagging where the cream solder spreads larger than the printed shape between the printing mask and the workpiece, and a bridge where adjacent solders are connected.

従来、基板にクリームはんだを印刷するクリームはんだ印刷機において、クリームはんだの印刷時に前記基板を印刷位置で保持する保持手段を備えるクリームはんだ印刷機のワーク保持装置であって、前記保持手段に設けられ、吸着により前記基板を固定する吸着固定手段と、該吸着手段による吸着のON/OFFを制御する制御手段をと、を備え、該制御手段は、前記吸着固定手段による前記基板の吸着をONとして前記保持手段に前記基板を保持させたのちに、印刷動作中に、前記吸着固定手段による前記基板の吸着をOFFとし、印刷終了後に、吸着固定手段による基板の吸着をONとし、基板を確実に保持させるものがある(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   Conventionally, in a cream solder printing machine for printing cream solder on a substrate, it is a work holding device of a cream solder printing machine that includes a holding unit that holds the substrate in a printing position during cream solder printing, and is provided in the holding unit. A suction fixing means for fixing the substrate by suction; and a control means for controlling ON / OFF of suction by the suction means. The control means turns on suction of the substrate by the suction fixing means. After the substrate is held by the holding means, during the printing operation, the suction of the substrate by the suction fixing means is turned OFF, and after the printing is finished, the suction of the substrate by the suction fixing means is turned ON to ensure the substrate There is what is held (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

また、前記吸着固定手段は、複数のエリアごとに設けられ、かつ、エリアごとに独立して吸着のON/OFFが可能な複数の吸着部を備え、前記制御手段は、前記複数の吸着部ごとに前記吸着固定手段による前記基板の吸着のON/OFFを制御することにより、スルーホールにエアの流れを発生させてクリームはんだを吸引する位置にある吸着部だけを選択して吸着をOFFし、吸引される畏れがない吸着部については、印刷動作中においても吸着させることができ、基板を確実に保持している。   The suction fixing means includes a plurality of suction sections that are provided for each of the plurality of areas and can be turned on / off independently for each area, and the control means is provided for each of the plurality of suction sections. By controlling the ON / OFF of the suction of the substrate by the suction fixing means, the suction is turned off by selecting only the suction part at the position where the air flow is generated in the through hole and the cream solder is sucked, The suction part that is not twisted can be sucked even during the printing operation, and the substrate is securely held.

しかしながら、上記特許文献1に記載された従来の技術によれば、吸着手段による吸着のON/OFFを制御する制御手段が必要となり、例えば、手印刷(手刷り)を行う簡易的な印刷機においては、スキージの手動操作に連動する制御手段でなければ適用が難しい。そのため、簡易的な印刷機にそぐわない高価な印刷機となってしまう、という問題があった。   However, according to the conventional technique described in Patent Document 1, a control unit that controls ON / OFF of suction by the suction unit is required. For example, in a simple printing machine that performs manual printing (hand printing). Is difficult to apply unless the control means is linked to manual operation of the squeegee. For this reason, there has been a problem that it becomes an expensive printing machine not suitable for a simple printing machine.

また、印刷中にワークの吸着を解除すると、スキージや印刷マスクの動きとともにワークが位置ズレしてしまうので、スキージの移動とともにワーク吸着のON/OFFを制御する必要があり、多数の吸引孔が必要となるが、吸着面に凹凸があり、吸着箇所が一箇所に限定されるワークに対しては、上記特許文献1に記載された技術を適用するのは困難である。   Also, if the suction of the workpiece is canceled during printing, the workpiece will be displaced with the movement of the squeegee and the printing mask. Therefore, it is necessary to control the ON / OFF of the workpiece suction along with the movement of the squeegee. Although necessary, it is difficult to apply the technique described in Patent Document 1 to a workpiece in which the suction surface is uneven and the suction location is limited to one location.

また、個々に反りの傾向にばらつきがあり、吸着面との密着性が悪いワークにおいては、エア漏れが発生する箇所が特定できないため、吸着におけるエアの吸込みを効果的に抑制するのが難しい、という問題もある。   In addition, there is variation in the tendency of warping individually, and in a work with poor adhesion to the suction surface, it is difficult to effectively suppress air suction during suction because the location where air leakage occurs cannot be specified. There is also a problem.

本発明は、上記に鑑みてなされたものであって、吸着面に凹凸等があり、吸着面との密着性が悪いワークであってもクリームはんだ印刷を行なうことができ、安価なクリームはんだ印刷装置を得ることを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above, and it is possible to perform cream solder printing even on a work having poor adhesion to the adsorption surface, such as unevenness on the adsorption surface, and inexpensive cream solder printing. The object is to obtain a device.

上述した課題を解決し、目的を達成するために、本発明は、印刷マスク載置面と、前記印刷マスク載置面から一段低い凹部として形成され底面がワーク吸着面となるワーク収容部と、前記ワーク吸着面から一段低い凹部として形成されワークにより閉塞される負圧室と、前記負圧室を真空発生器に連通させる吸引孔と、印刷マスクが載置されて閉塞された前記ワーク収容部を外気に連通させる通気孔と、を有するワーク保持テーブルと、前記印刷マスク上を摺動し前記印刷マスクの開口パターンを介して前記ワークにクリームはんだを印刷するスキージと、を備えることを特徴とする。   In order to solve the above-described problems and achieve the object, the present invention includes a printing mask mounting surface, and a workpiece storage portion that is formed as a recess that is one step lower than the printing mask mounting surface, and whose bottom surface is a workpiece suction surface. A negative pressure chamber that is formed as a recess that is one step lower than the workpiece suction surface, is closed by a workpiece, a suction hole that communicates the negative pressure chamber with a vacuum generator, and the workpiece storage portion that is closed by placing a printing mask A work holding table that communicates with the outside air, and a squeegee that slides on the printing mask and prints cream solder on the work through an opening pattern of the printing mask. To do.

この発明によれば、吸着面に凹凸等があり、吸着面との密着性が悪いワークであってもクリームはんだ印刷を行なうことができ、安価なクリームはんだ印刷装置が得られる、という効果を奏する。   According to the present invention, there is an effect that cream solder printing can be performed even on a workpiece having unevenness on the suction surface and having poor adhesion to the suction surface, and an inexpensive cream solder printing apparatus can be obtained. .

以下に、本発明にかかるクリームはんだ印刷装置の実施の形態を図面に基づいて詳細に説明する。なお、この実施の形態によりこの発明が限定されるものではない。   Embodiments of a cream solder printing apparatus according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments.

Form of chestnut It is explanatory drawing of the air vent of a solder paste printer.

図1に示すように、本実施の形態のクリームはんだ印刷装置10は、ワークとしてのセラミック基板11をワーク吸着面12f上に保持するワーク保持テーブル12と、開口パターン13aが形成され、セラミック基板11を覆うようにワーク保持テーブル12の印刷マスク載置面12h上に載置される平板状の印刷マスク13と、印刷マスク13上を摺動し印刷マスク13の開口パターン13aを介してワーク11にクリームはんだ14を印刷するスキージ15と、を備えている。   As shown in FIG. 1, the cream solder printing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment includes a workpiece holding table 12 that holds a ceramic substrate 11 as a workpiece on a workpiece suction surface 12f, and an opening pattern 13a. A flat plate-shaped printing mask 13 placed on the printing mask placement surface 12 h of the workpiece holding table 12 so as to cover the workpiece 11 and the workpiece 11 through the opening pattern 13 a of the printing mask 13 that slides on the printing mask 13. And a squeegee 15 for printing the cream solder 14.

図1〜図3に示すように、ワーク保持テーブル12は、印刷マスク載置面12hと、印刷マスク載置面12hから一段低い矩形の凹部として形成され底面がワーク吸着面12fとなるワーク収容部12aと、ワーク吸着面12fから一段低い凹部として形成されワーク(セラミック基板)11により閉塞される負圧室12bと、負圧室12bを真空発生器17に連通させる吸引孔12cと、印刷マスク13が載値されて閉塞されたワーク収容部12aを外気に連通させる通気孔12eと、を有している。   As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the work holding table 12 includes a print mask placement surface 12 h and a work storage portion that is formed as a rectangular recess that is one step lower than the print mask placement surface 12 h and has a bottom surface serving as a work suction surface 12 f. 12a, a negative pressure chamber 12b formed as a recess that is one step lower than the workpiece suction surface 12f, closed by the workpiece (ceramic substrate) 11, a suction hole 12c for communicating the negative pressure chamber 12b with the vacuum generator 17, and a printing mask 13 And a vent hole 12e for communicating the closed work accommodating portion 12a with the outside air.

凹部12aの深さは、セラミック基板11の厚さにばらつきがあっても、印刷マスク下面13bとセラミック基板上面11aとが印刷時に隙間なく密着することができるような深さになっていて、セラミック基板11の厚さよりも浅い場合もあれば深い場合もある。負圧室12bは、凹部12aの中央に形成されている。矩形のワーク収容部12aの対向する2辺の中央には、通気孔12eが開口する切欠き部12dが設けられている。   The depth of the recess 12a is such that even if the thickness of the ceramic substrate 11 varies, the print mask lower surface 13b and the ceramic substrate upper surface 11a can adhere to each other without a gap during printing. The thickness may be shallower or deeper than the thickness of the substrate 11. The negative pressure chamber 12b is formed at the center of the recess 12a. At the center of the two opposing sides of the rectangular workpiece accommodating portion 12a, a notch portion 12d in which a vent hole 12e is opened is provided.

図2に示すように、セラミック基板11を、ワーク保持テーブル12のワーク収容部12a内に収容してワーク吸着面12f上に設置し、真空発生器17により負圧室12b内の空気を吸引して負圧にし、セラミック基板11をワーク吸着面12fに吸着させる。   As shown in FIG. 2, the ceramic substrate 11 is accommodated in the workpiece accommodating portion 12 a of the workpiece holding table 12 and placed on the workpiece adsorption surface 12 f, and the air in the negative pressure chamber 12 b is sucked by the vacuum generator 17. Thus, the negative pressure is applied, and the ceramic substrate 11 is adsorbed on the workpiece adsorption surface 12f.

図3に示すように、スキージ15は、ボールスクリュー方式のスキージ送り装置16により、印刷マスク13に傾斜して押付けられ、印刷マスク13上を図3の右方向に摺動し、クリームはんだ14を、印刷マスク13の開口パターン13aを介してセラミック基板11に塗り込んで印刷する。図4に示すように、スキージ15を手18で持って、印刷マスク13上を摺動させ、手印刷(手刷り)を行なうこともできる。   As shown in FIG. 3, the squeegee 15 is inclined and pressed against the printing mask 13 by a ball screw type squeegee feeder 16, and slides on the printing mask 13 in the right direction of FIG. Then, the ceramic substrate 11 is coated through the opening pattern 13a of the printing mask 13 and printed. As shown in FIG. 4, it is also possible to perform manual printing (hand printing) by holding the squeegee 15 with the hand 18 and sliding it on the printing mask 13.

次に、図6を参照して、クリームはんだ印刷のメカニズムについて説明する。クリームはんだ印刷とは、ワークとしてのセラミック基板11へ、印刷マスク13の所定の開口パターン13aを介して、所定量のクリームはんだ14を転移する印刷方法をいう。   Next, the mechanism of cream solder printing will be described with reference to FIG. Cream solder printing refers to a printing method in which a predetermined amount of cream solder 14 is transferred to a ceramic substrate 11 as a work through a predetermined opening pattern 13a of a printing mask 13.

クリームはんだ印刷の工程は、図6の(1)に示す、スキージ15の移動により、クリームはんだ14を印刷マスク13の上面で回転させるローリング工程と、(2)に示す、クリームはんだ14を印刷マスク13の開口パターン13aへ充填・転移する転移工程と、(3)及び(4)に示す、クリームはんだ14がセラミック基板11の上面に転移され、開口パターン13aからクリームはんだ14が抜ける版離れ工程と、を有している。   The cream solder printing process includes a rolling process in which the cream solder 14 is rotated on the upper surface of the print mask 13 by the movement of the squeegee 15 shown in FIG. 6A, and the cream solder 14 shown in FIG. A transfer step of filling and transferring to the 13 opening patterns 13a, and a plate separating step shown in (3) and (4), in which the cream solder 14 is transferred to the upper surface of the ceramic substrate 11 and the cream solder 14 comes out of the opening pattern 13a. ,have.

印刷方式としては、図7に示す、転移工程と版離れ工程とがほぼ同時に行なわれるオフセット(ギャップ)印刷方式と、図8に示す、転移工程と版離れ工程とが別々に行なわれるコンタクト印刷方式がある。   As the printing method, an offset (gap) printing method shown in FIG. 7 in which the transfer step and the plate separation step are performed almost simultaneously, and a contact printing method shown in FIG. 8 in which the transfer step and the plate separation step are performed separately. There is.

図6の(1)に示すように、クリームはんだ14は、接合用の母材として用いられるはんだ粉末14aと、はんだ付け面の清浄化、印刷時の適正な粘度の維持及び部品の固定に必要な粘着性等、多様な機能を有するフラックス14bと、を含んで成る。   As shown in (1) of FIG. 6, the cream solder 14 is necessary for solder powder 14a used as a base material for joining, cleaning of the soldering surface, maintenance of proper viscosity during printing, and fixing of components. Flux 14b having various functions such as adhesiveness.

クリームはんだ印刷において、クリームはんだ14に求められる性能は、印刷マスク13の開口パターン13aのパターンを忠実に再現する印刷精度、かつ、再現したパターンを維持する保形性、開口パターン13aにクリームはんだ14が充填されるための適正な粘度である。求められる性能を満足させるための、はんだ粉末14aの粒径と多種のフラックス14bとの組合せがある。   In the cream solder printing, the performance required for the cream solder 14 is that the printing accuracy to faithfully reproduce the pattern of the opening pattern 13a of the printing mask 13, the shape retaining property to maintain the reproduced pattern, and the cream solder 14 to the opening pattern 13a. Is the proper viscosity for filling. There are combinations of the particle size of the solder powder 14a and various types of fluxes 14b to satisfy the required performance.

例えば、粘度の低いフラックス14bを含むクリームはんだ14は、印刷時の開口パターン13aへの充填性はよいが、印刷後の保形性は悪く、図6の(5)に示すように、形状が崩れてダレ14xやにじみ14yが発生しやすくなるため、印刷には不向きである。また、逆に、粘度が高いクリームはんだ14は、充填性が悪くなる。従って、適正な粘度を有するものが、印刷性のよいクリームはんだである。   For example, the cream solder 14 containing the low-viscosity flux 14b has good filling properties into the opening pattern 13a at the time of printing, but has poor shape retention after printing, and has a shape as shown in (5) of FIG. Since it collapses and sag 14x and blur 14y are likely to occur, it is not suitable for printing. Conversely, the cream solder 14 having a high viscosity has poor filling properties. Therefore, a cream solder having a proper viscosity is a printable solder.

にじみ14yは、図9に示すように、印刷時に、ワーク11を吸着するための真空発生器17の吸込みによって、クリームはんだ14が、印刷マスク13の開口パターン13aを通り、印刷マスク下面へ回り込むことにより発生する。にじみ14yは、ワーク11とワーク保持テーブル12のワーク吸着面12fとの密着が悪く、エア漏れMが発生したときに起こりやすい。   As shown in FIG. 9, the blur 14 y causes the cream solder 14 to pass through the opening pattern 13 a of the printing mask 13 to the lower surface of the printing mask 13 due to the suction of the vacuum generator 17 for sucking the workpiece 11 during printing. Caused by. The blur 14y is likely to occur when the air leak M occurs due to poor adhesion between the workpiece 11 and the workpiece suction surface 12f of the workpiece holding table 12.

印刷時は、スキージ15が、印刷マスク13をワーク保持テーブル12に押付けて印刷を行なうため、ワーク保持テーブル12、ワーク11、印刷マスク13及びクリームはんだ14により、ワーク収容部12aは閉じられた空間となる。   During printing, since the squeegee 15 presses the print mask 13 against the work holding table 12 to perform printing, the work accommodating portion 12a is closed by the work holding table 12, the work 11, the print mask 13, and the cream solder 14. It becomes.

ワーク11とワーク保持テーブル12のワーク吸着面12fとの間に隙間12gがあると、エア漏れMが発生し、その結果、ワーク収容部12a内が負圧となり、クリームはんだ14がワーク収容部12a内に吸込まれ、印刷マスク下面13bを伝って広がる。クリームはんだ14に含まれるフラックス14bは、吸込みによって、印刷マスク下面13bとワーク11に挟まれたわずかな隙間でも、毛細管現象により短時間で広がり、にじみ14yとなる。   If there is a gap 12g between the workpiece 11 and the workpiece holding surface 12f of the workpiece holding table 12, an air leak M occurs. As a result, the inside of the workpiece accommodating portion 12a becomes negative pressure, and the cream solder 14 is transferred to the workpiece accommodating portion 12a. It is sucked in and spreads along the print mask lower surface 13b. The flux 14b contained in the cream solder 14 spreads in a short time due to capillary action even in a slight gap sandwiched between the print mask lower surface 13b and the work 11 due to suction, and becomes a blur 14y.

次に、図5と図9とを比較参照しながら、図5に示す実施の形態のクリームはんだ印刷装置10について詳細に説明する。クリームはんだ印刷装置10では、ワークとしてセラミック基板11を用いている。セラミック基板11は、反り易く、割れ易く、割れによる個片化により端部形状がいびつになりやすい。   Next, the cream solder printing apparatus 10 of the embodiment shown in FIG. 5 will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 5 and FIG. In the cream solder printing apparatus 10, a ceramic substrate 11 is used as a workpiece. The ceramic substrate 11 is easily warped, is easily cracked, and the end shape is liable to be distorted by singulation.

図9に示すように、セラミック基板11をワーク保持テーブル12で保持するとき、チャッキング等で機械的に固定すると、セラミック基板11に、欠け、割れ又はクラックが発生する。そのため、セラミック基板11は、真空吸着によりワーク保持テーブル12に固定されるが、反り或いは縁部の凹凸により、ワーク吸着面12fとセラミック基板11との間に隙間12gが生じ、エア漏れMが発生し、クリームはんだ14が、印刷マスク下面13bやセラミック基板11の上面11aに、にじみ14yとなって広がる不具合が起こる。   As shown in FIG. 9, when the ceramic substrate 11 is held by the work holding table 12, if it is mechanically fixed by chucking or the like, the ceramic substrate 11 is chipped, cracked or cracked. Therefore, the ceramic substrate 11 is fixed to the work holding table 12 by vacuum suction, but a gap 12g is generated between the workpiece suction surface 12f and the ceramic substrate 11 due to warpage or unevenness of the edge, and air leakage M occurs. However, the problem that the cream solder 14 spreads as a blur 14y on the print mask lower surface 13b and the upper surface 11a of the ceramic substrate 11 occurs.

また、クリームはんだ14のにじみ14yを放置すると、連続で印刷作業を行なったときに、印刷マスク下面13bに回りこんだクリームはんだ14が、印刷マスク13とセラミック基板11の間に挟まれて隙間が生じ、余計ににじみ14yが拡大し、印刷不具合を増大させてしまう。そのため、印刷マスク下面13bの清掃を、にじみ14yが発生する度に行なわねばならず、印刷マスク13の清掃作業の頻度が増えるという問題も起こる。   Further, if the bleed 14y of the cream solder 14 is left, the cream solder 14 that has wrapped around the lower surface 13b of the printing mask when the printing operation is continuously performed is sandwiched between the printing mask 13 and the ceramic substrate 11 so that a gap is left. As a result, the blur 14y is excessively enlarged and printing defects are increased. For this reason, the printing mask lower surface 13b must be cleaned every time the bleeding 14y occurs, and the frequency of cleaning the printing mask 13 increases.

図9に示すように、セラミック基板11は、セラミック基板11を収容するワーク収容部12a、吸引孔12c及びワーク吸着面12fにより保持され、印刷時に、スキージ15で押さえつけられることにより、印刷マスク下面13bとセラミック基板上面11aが接触する。   As shown in FIG. 9, the ceramic substrate 11 is held by a work accommodating portion 12 a that accommodates the ceramic substrate 11, a suction hole 12 c, and a work suction surface 12 f, and is pressed by a squeegee 15 during printing, whereby a print mask lower surface 13 b And the ceramic substrate upper surface 11a contact.

接触と同時に、開口パターン13aに充填されたクリームはんだ14が、セラミック基板上面11aのランド11c上に押出され、開口の形状に形成されたクリームはんだ14が印刷(転写)される。このとき、印刷マスク下面13bとセラミック基板上面11a、及び、印刷マスク下面13bと印刷マスク載置面12hが、スキージ15の押付けにより、密着した状態となる。   Simultaneously with the contact, the cream solder 14 filled in the opening pattern 13a is extruded onto the land 11c on the upper surface 11a of the ceramic substrate, and the cream solder 14 formed in the shape of the opening is printed (transferred). At this time, the printing mask lower surface 13 b and the ceramic substrate upper surface 11 a and the printing mask lower surface 13 b and the printing mask placement surface 12 h are brought into close contact with each other by pressing the squeegee 15.

この密着状態において、セラミック基板下面11bとワーク吸着面12fとの間に隙間12gが生じていると、エア漏れMによって、ワーク収容部12aが負圧となり、開口パターン13aからセラミック基板11へ転移されたクリームはんだ14が、印刷マスク下面13bへ広がるにじみ14yが発生する。   If a gap 12g is formed between the ceramic substrate lower surface 11b and the workpiece suction surface 12f in this tight contact state, the work accommodating portion 12a becomes negative pressure due to air leakage M, and is transferred from the opening pattern 13a to the ceramic substrate 11. Bleeding 14y that the cream solder 14 spreads to the lower surface 13b of the printing mask occurs.

図5に示す、クリームはんだ印刷装置10では、印刷時に、印刷マスク3とセラミック基板11とが密着しているときに、ワーク収容部12aが負圧とならないように、ワーク保持テーブル12の切欠き部12dに開口し、ワーク収容部12aを外気に連通させる通気孔12eを設けている。   In the cream solder printing apparatus 10 shown in FIG. 5, when the printing mask 3 and the ceramic substrate 11 are in close contact with each other at the time of printing, the work holding table 12 is notched so as not to have a negative pressure. A vent hole 12e is provided in the portion 12d to allow the work accommodating portion 12a to communicate with the outside air.

通気孔12eは、吸引孔12cとは直接連通しておらず、セラミック基板11の吸着力に影響を与えることはない。通気孔12eは、印刷時に、ワーク収容部12aに連通する空気流路となり、ワーク収容部12aが負圧になるのを防ぐ。従来の技術のように、印刷時に、吸着ON/OFFの切替えをする必要がなく、簡素な構造でクリームはんだ14のにじみ14yを防止することができる。   The ventilation hole 12e does not directly communicate with the suction hole 12c and does not affect the suction force of the ceramic substrate 11. The air hole 12e serves as an air flow path that communicates with the work housing portion 12a during printing, and prevents the work housing portion 12a from becoming a negative pressure. Unlike the prior art, there is no need to switch the suction ON / OFF during printing, and the cream solder 14 can be prevented from bleeding 14y with a simple structure.

なお、図10−1に示すように、通気孔12eの径Dが、ワーク収容部12aの容積に対して小さすぎると、通気孔12eの管路損失が増大し、ワーク収容部12aにおいて負圧が発生しやすくなるため、図10−2に示すように、通気孔径Dは、吸引孔径Dの0.7倍以上とするのが望ましい。 Negative Incidentally, as shown in Figure 10-1, the diameter D 2 of the vent 12e is too small for the volume of the workpiece accommodating portion 12a, the conduit loss vent 12e is increased, the work storing section 12a since pressure is likely to occur, as shown in Figure 10-2, the vent hole diameter D 2, it is desirable to not less than 0.7 times the suction hole diameter D 1.

以上説明したように、本実施の形態のクリームはんだ印刷装置10は、従来のワーク保持テーブル12に通気孔12eを設けるだけなので、装置の製造に当たり、高額な設備追加や制御機構の追加という、コスト的な問題は生じない。低コストで製造することができるので、クリームはんだ手印刷装置にも適用することができる。   As described above, the cream solder printing apparatus 10 according to the present embodiment is merely provided with the vent holes 12e in the conventional work holding table 12, and therefore, in the manufacture of the apparatus, the cost of adding expensive equipment or adding a control mechanism is increased. No problems arise. Since it can be manufactured at a low cost, it can also be applied to a cream solder manual printing apparatus.

以上のように、本発明にかかるクリームはんだ印刷装置は、簡易、安価な印刷装置として有用である。   As described above, the cream solder printing apparatus according to the present invention is useful as a simple and inexpensive printing apparatus.
