2. Description of the Related Art In a mounting head of a conventional electronic component mounting machine, for example, as described in JP-A-2-124404,
There is a configuration in which a fixed distance is provided between the optical axis of the mounting pattern detection camera mounted on the mounting head and the axis of the suction nozzle. Hereinafter, this fixed distance is referred to as an offset distance. In the device of this configuration, after the positions of the electronic component and the mounting pattern are respectively detected, the mounting head moves while the electronic component is being sucked by the suction nozzle, and the mounting command position is corrected directly on the basis of the detected value. Transport electronic components to
The electronic component was mounted on the board.

On the other hand, as an example of the structure having no offset distance, there is a conventional example described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 61-63099. This is to hold the electronic component right above the mounting command position by the suction nozzle, insert an image pickup device between the electronic component and the mounting pattern via an optical system, and take both images of the electronic component and the mounting pattern. After detecting the position deviation value or relative displacement, calculate the correction distance (vector amount in the plane parallel to the board) to correct the position of the mounting head or the board, retract the optical parts, and lower the suction nozzle. Then, the operation of mounting the electronic component on the substrate was performed.

In the first conventional example, after the mounting pattern position is detected, the mounting head is moved by the robot by the offset distance, and then the electronic component is moved to the corrected command position on the substrate. A driving method of wearing them is required. That is, even if the position deviation value is accurately measured and the correction distance is accurately calculated, since the mounting head then moves a distance of several tens of mm, the final displacement of the electronic component with respect to the mounting pattern is It is impossible to know, and so-called open loop control will be executed. Therefore, the mounting position error includes the position error component of the mounting head transport mechanism, and the mounting position accuracy is rough.

In the second conventional example, the mechanical operations after position detection are only minute position correction in a plane parallel to the substrate, angle correction of the suction nozzle, and lowering of the suction nozzle. Since the head transport mechanism is almost stopped, there is an effect that the value of the mounting position accuracy can be suppressed to be small as compared with the first conventional example. However, (when this device for detecting the mounting pattern position is used for the mounting work of a relatively small electronic component that requires particularly high-speed mounting, the operation speed becomes an impractical low speed.) When the above device is used for a general-purpose mounting operation including a relatively large electronic component such as an LSI, a large detection field of view is required, and the optical system becomes large. Further, due to the increase in size, it takes a longer time to insert and retract the optical system and the imaging device fixed to the optical system, which hinders high-speed operation of the device. It may be possible to prevent the size of the optical system from becoming large by sequentially photographing multiple detection fields of view that are appropriately divided and designated according to the shapes of various electronic components, but in this case, the inserting operation and the procedure of multiple times are required. It takes an even longer time to move, retreat to change the field of view, and take multiple shots.
After all, it will hinder the speeding up of the operation.

Alternatively, there is an effect that the mounting head 2 that is smaller and less expensive can be configured than the conventional device that requires a structure in which two reflecting surfaces are separately provided as shown in FIG. 5 to combine the optical paths.

According to the present embodiment, the electronic component 5 can be photographed not only after the mounting head 2 has arrived above the mounting pattern 7 but also while the mounting head 2 is moving. It is possible to position the suction nozzle 3 and the beam splitter 13 in advance before this photographing. For this reason, after the mounting head 2 stops on the mounting pattern 7, the mounting pattern 7 can be immediately photographed without waiting for the static vibration waiting time of the relative vibration of the beam splitter 13 with respect to the imaging device 10. Further, since the entire light receiving system is not moved with respect to the suction nozzle 3 but only the optical element having the reflecting surfaces 11 and 12 is moved, a relatively high speed movement is possible. Therefore, it is effective in improving the mounting speed.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 6, the overall structure is almost the same as that of the first embodiment, but the beam splitter 24 is installed in a posture inverted from that of the first embodiment instead of the beam splitter 13. The center of the beam splitter 24 at the time of photographing is positioned just half the length of one side of the beam splitter 13 above the midpoint between the lower surface of the electronic component 5 and the mounting pattern 7 so that both optical path lengths are equal.

According to this embodiment, in addition to the effect described in the first embodiment, the distance between the substrate 6 and the beam splitter 24 is made longer than the distance between the substrate 6 and the beam splitter 13. It is possible. Beam splitter 24
The distance d 1 between the bottom surface 25 and the substrate 6 is a constant value h (generally 5 to 10 mm) so that the beam splitter 24 does not interfere with another electronic component group already mounted during the mounting operation or movement. The above is required. This is also required in the first embodiment. However, in this embodiment, the bottom surface 25 of the beam splitter and the substrate 6 are
Since the distance d 1 between the beam splitter and the electronic component 5 is larger than the distance d 2 between the upper surface 26 of the beam splitter and the electronic component 5, a part (or the whole) of the distance d 1 is applied to the allowance distance h to bring d 2 close to 0. Then, the sum of both distances (d 1 + d 2 ) can be shortened as compared with the first embodiment.

As a result, the vertical stroke of the suction nozzle 3 can be greatly shortened (approximately the same size as h), so that a mechanical error that occurs with the vertical movement of the suction nozzle 3 and causes a decrease in mounting accuracy is caused. It can be reduced by minutes. Further, by shortening the vertical stroke, the vertical movement time of the suction nozzle 3 is also shortened, and the mounting speed can be improved as compared with the conventional structure of FIGS. 4 and 5.

According to the present invention, an image of a mounting pattern can be taken in a state where the mounting head is directly above the mounting command position, and the mounting head moves only a slight correction distance after the image capturing, so that the robot mechanism An error component resulting from absolute accuracy such as accuracy is not included in the mounting accuracy of the electronic component, and the mounting accuracy is improved.

Further, by using a beam splitter with metal vapor-deposited on one side, the positions of electronic parts and mounting patterns can be detected with a smaller device size in the vertical direction than the conventional example, and the beam splitter mounting posture If you select, the vertical stroke of the suction nozzle will be shortened.
There is an effect that it is possible to reduce a mechanical error that is caused by the vertical movement of the suction nozzle and causes a reduction in mounting accuracy.
