Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、ワークの位置決め搬送装置に関し、特に、たとえば多数の電子部品などを支持した短冊状のワークを所定の検査位置に搬送するためのワークの位置決め搬送装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
図4(A)は、従来のワークの位置決め搬送装置の一例を示す図解図であり、図4(B)は、この位置決め搬送装置で搬送される電子部品を支持した短冊状または帯状のテープを示す図解図である。位置決め搬送装置1は、たとえば1対の帯状のテープ2の間に支持された複数の電子部品3を所定の位置で検査するために用いられる。つまり、電子部品3の特性などを検査するための検査位置4に、電子部品3を1つずつ搬送するために、搬送装置1が用いられる。
【0003】
このような位置決め搬送装置1を用いるために、テープ2には、複数の送り孔5が形成されている。位置決め搬送装置1は、1対のテープ2の送り孔5に挿入するための搬送用ピン6を含む。搬送用ピン6は、検査位置4において、図4(A)の矢印aに示すように、テープ2の送り孔5に挿入される。その後、図4(A)の矢印bに示すように、搬送用ピン6が隣接する電子部品3の間隔だけ移動することにより、テープ2が搬送される。テープ2が搬送されると、図4(A)の矢印cに示すように、搬送用ピン6は送り孔5から引き抜かれ、図4(A)の矢印dに示すように、元の検査位置4まで移動させられる。この検査位置4において、図4(A)の矢印aに示すように、搬送用ピン6がテープ2の送り孔5に挿入される。このような動作が繰り返されることにより、電子部品3は、1つずつ検査位置4に搬送され、特性の検査をすることができる。
【0004】
また、図5(A)(B)において矢印bに示すように、搬送用ピン6が隣接する電子部品3の間隔だけ移動したのち、さらに隣接する電子部品3の間隔だけ移動するという動作を何回か繰り返したのち、矢印c,dに示すように、搬送用ピン6が送り孔5から引き抜かれ、元の検査位置まで戻るという動作を繰り返しても、個々の電子部品3の検査を行なうことができる。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、図4に示す搬送装置では、送り孔への搬送用ピンの差し替え回数が多くなり、テープの搬送に時間がかかるとともに、搬送用ピンの差し替えが失敗する可能性が高くなる。また、図5に示す搬送装置では、搬送用ピンを所定の間隔ずつ複数回移動させたのちに、送り孔から搬送用ピンが引き抜かれるため、搬送用ピンが移動の終点位置まできたときに、搬送用ピンと検査位置との距離が大きくなる。そのため、図5(B)の矢印eに示すように、テープが幅方向に位置ずれしやすく、検査位置にある電子部品が位置ずれを起こして、特性の検査ができない場合がある。さらに、搬送用ピンを送り孔から引き抜くときに、うまく搬送用ピンが引き抜かれず、テープが搬送用ピンに引っ張られて破損する場合がある。
【0006】
それゆえに、この発明の主たる目的は、搬送用ピンの差し替え回数を少なくすることができ、短冊状のワークの位置ずれを防ぐことができ、搬送用ピンの引き抜きミスをなくすことができる、ワークの位置決め搬送装置を提供することである。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
この発明は、複数の送り孔が形成された金属製の短冊状のワークを搬送して位置決めし、検査位置にてワークを検査するためのワークの位置決め搬送装置であって、複数の送り孔に挿入される搬送方向へ並設された複数の搬送用ピンを含み、複数の搬送用ピンの移動範囲の始点において搬送用ピンが送り孔に挿入され、所定量ずつ複数の搬送用ピンを移動させることによりワークが所定量ずつ複数回搬送され、複数の搬送用ピンの移動範囲の終点において送り孔から搬送用ピンが引き抜かれ、複数の搬送用ピンが移動範囲の始点に移動するという動作が繰り返され、所定量ずつ複数回行う搬送のうち各々の搬送後に、搬送用ピン近傍にある検査位置でワークの特性を検査することを特徴とする、ワークの位置決め搬送装置である。
このようなワークの位置決め搬送装置において、複数の搬送用ピンの移動量を任意に設定可能とすることができる。
また、複数の搬送用ピンを送り孔から引き抜く際に、ワークを押さえることにより、搬送用ピンとワークとを切り離すためのストリッパを含むことが好ましい。
【0008】
短冊状のワークの複数の送り孔に複数の搬送用ピンを挿入し、所定量ずつ移動させることにより、ワークを所定量ずつ搬送することができる。このとき、搬送用ピンを所定量ずつ複数回移動させることにより、ワークを所定量ずつ複数回搬送することができ、搬送用ピンの差し替え回数を少なくすることができる。
複数の送り孔に複数の搬送用ピンを挿入することにより、先頭の搬送用ピンが所定の位置から離れたときでも、その位置において他の搬送用ピンが存在する。そのため、所定の位置において、短冊状のワークが位置ずれすることを防止することができる。
さらに、ストリッパを設けることにより、短冊状のワークを押さえた状態で搬送用ピンを引き抜くことができるため、確実に搬送用ピンの差し替えを行なうことができる。
【0009】
この発明の上述の目的,その他の目的,特徴および利点は、図面を参照して行う以下の発明の実施の形態の詳細な説明から一層明らかとなろう。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
ワークの位置決め搬送装置の一例として、複数の電子部品を支持したテープを搬送し、所定の位置で電子部品の特性を検査するための位置決め搬送装置について説明する。位置決め搬送装置10は、図1(A)(B)に示すように、複数の電子部品12を支持した1対のテープ14を搬送するために用いられる。テープ14は金属からなり、短冊状に形成され、等間隔の送り孔16が1列に形成されている。
【0011】
1対のテープ14の間には、複数の電子部品12が等間隔で支持される。電子部品12としては、たとえばインダクタやコンデンサなどを内蔵したものなどが考えられ、対向端部から延びるリード線がテープ14に支持される。なお、図1(B)では、電子部品12の両端から2本ずつリード線が延びているが、リード線の数は特に限定されるものではない。
【0012】
さらに、位置決め搬送装置10は、複数の搬送用ピン18を含む。搬送用ピン18は、たとえば1対のテープ14の送り孔16に対応した間隔で、支持部材20に支持される。そして、搬送用ピン18は、1対のテープ14に合わせて2列に配置される。それぞれの列の搬送用ピン18は、各テープ14の送り孔16と同じ間隔となるように配置される。さらに、2列に配置された搬送用ピン18の間に、たとえば板状のストリッパ22が形成される。
【0013】
電子部品12は、図2に示すように、所定の検査位置24において、その特性などが検査される。ここで、各電子部品12を1つずつ検査位置24に搬送するために、図2(A)および図2(B)の矢印aに示すように、搬送用ピン18がテープ14の送り孔16に挿入される。このとき、一端側の搬送用ピン18は、検査位置24に近い部分において送り孔16に挿入され、その他の搬送用ピン18は、連続する送り孔16に挿入される。この最初にテープ14の送り孔16に搬送用ピン18を挿入した位置が、搬送用ピン18の移動範囲の始点となる。
【0014】
この状態で、支持部材20がテープ14に沿って移動し、テープ14が搬送される。このとき、支持部材20は、検査位置24付近において送り孔16に挿入された搬送用ピン18を先頭とする方向に移動させられる。それにより、電子部品12も搬送されるが、隣接する電子部品12の間隔だけ搬送されたところで、支持部材20は停止させられる。したがって、検査位置24においてすでに検査された電子部品12に隣接する電子部品12が、検査位置24に搬送されて停止する。ここで、電子部品12の検査が行なわれたのち、再び支持部材20が、隣接する電子部品12の間隔だけ移動して停止させられる。このような動作が、図2(B)の矢印bに示すように、複数回繰り返されることにより、電子部品12が1つずつ検査位置24に搬送され、特性が検査される。
【0015】
このようにして、電子部品12が1つずつ検査位置24に搬送され、搬送用ピン18の移動範囲の終点まできたとき、図2(B)の矢印cに示すように、支持部材20が上昇して、テープ14の送り孔16から搬送用ピン18が引き抜かれる。このとき、図3(A)(B)に示すように、ストリッパ22が下降して、テープ14が押さえられ、搬送用ピン18とテープ14とが切り離される。搬送用ピン18が送り孔16から引き抜かれると、図2(B)の矢印dに示すように、支持部材20は、搬送用ピン18の移動範囲の始点となる位置に移動する。つまり、先頭の搬送用ピン18が検査位置24部分となる位置に、支持部材20が移動する。この位置で、図2(B)の矢印aに示すように、支持部材20が下降して、再びテープ14の送り孔16に搬送用ピン18が挿入され、テープ14が搬送される。このような動作が繰り返されることにより、テープ14が所定量ずつ搬送される。
【0016】
この位置決め搬送装置10では、搬送用ピン18がテープ14の送り孔16に挿入された状態で、所定の間隔ずつ移動するという動作が繰り返されることにより、搬送用ピン18の差し替えをすることなく、複数個の電子部品12を検査位置24に移動させることができる。そして、複数個の電子部品12の特性が検査されたのちに、搬送用ピン18の差し替えが行なわれるため、差し替えの回数が少なく、テープ14の搬送速度を上げることができるとともに、搬送用ピンの差し替えが失敗する可能性も低くなる。
【0017】
また、複数の搬送用ピン18がテープ14の送り孔16に挿入されるため、先頭の搬送用ピン18が移動しても、検査位置24においては別の搬送用ピン18がテープ14の送り孔16に挿入されている。そのため、検査位置24において、テープ14は位置ずれすることがなく、電子部品12も所定の位置で停止させることができる。したがって、電子部品12の特性を確実に検査することができる。
【0018】
さらに、ストリッパ22が設けられることにより、搬送用ピン18を送り孔16から引き抜くときに、テープ14が搬送用ピン18について引き上げられることを防止することができ、確実に搬送用ピン18とテープ14とを切り離すことができる。なお、搬送用ピン18がテープ14からスムーズに引き抜かれるのであれば、ストリッパ22を設ける必要はない。
【0019】
なお、上述の例では、検査位置24で電子部品12の特性を検査するために、隣接する電子部品の間隔だけテープ14を搬送したが、その目的に応じて、搬送距離を任意に変更することができる。また、テープ14は、1対のものではなく、1本のテープ14に電子部品12を支持したものでもよく、この場合、搬送用ピン18は1列にのみ配列される。もちろん、短冊状のワークであれば、電子部品を支持しないものであっても、所定量ずつ搬送して位置決めを行なうことができる。
【0020】
【発明の効果】
この発明によれば、搬送用ピンの差し替え回数を少なくすることができ、ワークの搬送を短時間で行なうことができるとともに、搬送用ピンの差し替えが失敗する可能性を低くすることができる。また、複数の搬送用ピンが送り孔に挿入されるため、長い範囲においてワークの位置ずれを防止することができる。さらに、ストリッパを用いることにより、ワークから搬送用ピンを確実に切り離すことができる。

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the transport device shown in FIG. 4, the number of times the transport pins are replaced into the feed holes increases, and it takes time to transport the tape, and the possibility that the replacement of the transport pins will fail increases. Further, in the transport device shown in FIG. 5, after the transport pin is moved a plurality of times at predetermined intervals, the transport pin is pulled out from the feed hole, so when the transport pin reaches the end point of movement, The distance between the conveyance pin and the inspection position is increased. Therefore, as indicated by an arrow e in FIG. 5B, the tape is likely to be displaced in the width direction, and the electronic component at the inspection position may be displaced so that the characteristic cannot be inspected. Furthermore, when the conveyance pin is pulled out from the feed hole, the conveyance pin may not be pulled out well, and the tape may be pulled by the conveyance pin and damaged.

[0009]
The above object, other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings.
[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
As an example of the workpiece positioning and conveying apparatus, a positioning and conveying apparatus for conveying a tape supporting a plurality of electronic components and inspecting the characteristics of the electronic components at a predetermined position will be described. The positioning and conveying device 10 is used to convey a pair of tapes 14 that support a plurality of electronic components 12 as shown in FIGS. Tape 14 is a metal or Rannahli, formed in a strip shape, equally spaced feed holes 16 are formed in a row.
[0011]
A plurality of electronic components 12 are supported at equal intervals between a pair of tapes 14. As the electronic component 12, for example, an electronic component having a built-in inductor, capacitor, or the like is conceivable, and a lead wire extending from the opposite end is supported by the tape 14. In FIG. 1B, two lead wires extend from both ends of the electronic component 12, but the number of lead wires is not particularly limited.
[0012]
Further, the positioning and conveying apparatus 10 includes a plurality of conveying pins 18. The transport pins 18 are supported by the support member 20 at intervals corresponding to the feed holes 16 of the pair of tapes 14, for example. The transport pins 18 are arranged in two rows according to the pair of tapes 14. The conveying pins 18 in each row are arranged so as to have the same spacing as the feed holes 16 of each tape 14. Further, for example, a plate-like stripper 22 is formed between the conveying pins 18 arranged in two rows.
[0013]
As shown in FIG. 2, the electronic component 12 is inspected for characteristics and the like at a predetermined inspection position 24. Here, in order to convey each electronic component 12 to the inspection position 24 one by one, as shown by the arrow a in FIG. 2A and FIG. Inserted into. At this time, the conveyance pin 18 on one end side is inserted into the feed hole 16 at a portion close to the inspection position 24, and the other conveyance pins 18 are inserted into the continuous feed hole 16. The position where the transport pin 18 is first inserted into the feed hole 16 of the tape 14 is the starting point of the movement range of the transport pin 18.
[0014]
In this state, the support member 20 moves along the tape 14, and the tape 14 is conveyed. At this time, the support member 20 is moved in the direction starting from the conveyance pin 18 inserted into the feed hole 16 in the vicinity of the inspection position 24. Thereby, although the electronic component 12 is also conveyed, the support member 20 is stopped when the electronic component 12 is conveyed by an interval between the adjacent electronic components 12. Accordingly, the electronic component 12 adjacent to the electronic component 12 already inspected at the inspection position 24 is conveyed to the inspection position 24 and stopped. Here, after the electronic component 12 is inspected, the support member 20 is again moved and stopped by the interval between the adjacent electronic components 12. Such an operation is repeated a plurality of times as indicated by an arrow b in FIG. 2B, whereby the electronic components 12 are conveyed to the inspection position 24 one by one and the characteristics are inspected.
[0015]
In this way, when the electronic components 12 are conveyed to the inspection position 24 one by one and reach the end point of the movement range of the conveying pin 18, the support member 20 is raised as shown by the arrow c in FIG. Then, the conveying pin 18 is pulled out from the feed hole 16 of the tape 14. At this time, as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, the stripper 22 is lowered, the tape 14 is pressed, and the conveying pin 18 and the tape 14 are separated. When the transport pin 18 is pulled out from the feed hole 16, the support member 20 moves to a position that is the starting point of the movement range of the transport pin 18 as indicated by an arrow d in FIG. That is, the support member 20 moves to a position where the leading conveyance pin 18 becomes the inspection position 24 portion. At this position, as shown by an arrow a in FIG. 2B, the support member 20 is lowered, and the transport pins 18 are inserted into the feed holes 16 of the tape 14 again, so that the tape 14 is transported. By repeating such an operation, the tape 14 is conveyed by a predetermined amount.
[0016]
In this positioning and conveying apparatus 10, by repeating the operation of moving by a predetermined interval while the conveying pin 18 is inserted into the feed hole 16 of the tape 14, the conveying pin 18 is not replaced. A plurality of electronic components 12 can be moved to the inspection position 24. Then, after the characteristics of the plurality of electronic components 12 are inspected, the transfer pin 18 is replaced, so that the number of replacements is small, the transport speed of the tape 14 can be increased, and the transfer pin 18 The possibility that the replacement will fail is also reduced.
[0017]
In addition, since a plurality of transport pins 18 are inserted into the feed holes 16 of the tape 14, even if the leading transport pin 18 moves, another transport pin 18 is moved to the feed hole of the tape 14 at the inspection position 24. 16 is inserted. Therefore, the tape 14 is not displaced at the inspection position 24, and the electronic component 12 can be stopped at a predetermined position. Therefore, the characteristics of the electronic component 12 can be reliably inspected.
[0018]
Further, by providing the stripper 22, it is possible to prevent the tape 14 from being pulled up with respect to the transport pin 18 when the transport pin 18 is pulled out from the feed hole 16, and the transport pin 18 and the tape 14 are surely secured. And can be separated. Note that the stripper 22 does not need to be provided if the transport pins 18 are smoothly pulled out from the tape 14.
[0019]
In the above example, in order to inspect the characteristics of the electronic component 12 at the inspection position 24, the tape 14 is conveyed by the interval between adjacent electronic components. However, the conveyance distance may be arbitrarily changed according to the purpose. Can do. Further, the tape 14 may be one in which the electronic component 12 is supported on one tape 14 instead of a pair, and in this case, the transport pins 18 are arranged in only one row. Of course, if it is a strip- shaped work, even if it does not support an electronic component, it can convey and position by predetermined amount.
[0020]
【The invention's effect】
According to the present invention, the number of times of transfer pin replacement can be reduced, the workpiece can be transported in a short time, and the possibility of failure of replacement of the transport pin can be reduced. In addition, since a plurality of conveying pins are inserted into the feed holes, it is possible to prevent the workpiece from shifting in a long range. Furthermore, by using a stripper, the conveyance pins can be reliably separated from the workpiece.
