Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the image of a part excellent in background brightness when the part is recognized through either a reflected illumination method or a transmitted illumination method. CONSTITUTION:When a CPU judges that a part 5 attracted by a suction nozzle 14 must be recognized through a transmitted illumination method, a liquid crystal layer 25 is turned transparent, and light is reflected by a white coating layer 24 to make a diffusion plate 22 bright. When a CPU judges that a reflected illumination method should be utilized, the liquid crystal layer 25 is put in a light shading state, and light is not reflected by the white coating layer 24 to turn the diffusion plate 22 dark.

Next, when the head 15 moves and reaches the recognition station II due to the intermittent rotation of the rotary table 13, the component recognition device 16 recognizes the component 5 sucked by the suction nozzle 14. That is, the CPU 36 reads the arrangement data of FIG. 7 from the reel number of step 1 of the NC data of FIG. 6 read from the RAM 38, knows that the component ID is AAA, reads the component library data of the component ID AAA, and reads this component 5 It is determined that the transillumination type component recognition is applied to.

Next, the CPU 36 switches the light source 23 to the transmissive illumination system according to this judgment, and further, the lead wire 32,
The liquid crystal of the liquid crystal layer 25 is made transparent through the diffusion plate 22.
Control to brighten. Next, the component recognition device 16 images the component 5, and the light emitted from the light source 23 strikes the diffusion plate 22, but the resin plate 26 and the liquid crystal layer 2 in a transparent state.
After passing through 5, the white coating layer 24 is reflected, diffused, again transmitted through the liquid crystal layer 25 and the resin plate 26, and irradiated on the component 5, and this image is picked up by the camera of the component recognition device 16. As shown in FIG. 9, the picked-up image is such that the part 5 is black and the background diffuser plate 22 is sufficiently bright so that the image of the part 5 is clearly projected.

Based on the image, the positional deviation of the component 5 (including the angular positional deviation) is recognized. Next, the head 15 is recognized by the rotation of the rotary table 13.
Although moving from the section II, the CPU 36 uses the recognition device 16
If it is recognized from the recognition result that there is an angle deviation of Δθ, the drive circuit 39 is caused to rotate the rotary shaft 29 by an angle “90−Δθ” in which the positional deviation is added to 90 degrees of the θ data of the NC data. The component 5 is issued a command and the angular displacement is corrected, and the component 5 is swung to the angular position of the θ data to be mounted.

Next, when the mounting head 15 reaches the mounting station III, the mounting head 15 descends in the same manner as in the suction station I, and is mounted at the coordinate position (X1, Y1) of the printed circuit board 6 by 90 degrees. It is installed at an angle. Since the XY table 3 is mounted in the position, the XY table 3 is displaced by the rotation of the X-axis motor 4 and the Y-axis motor 2 due to the recognition result of the recognition device 16, and the suction nozzle 14 is rotated by "90-Δθ". The movement amount is corrected by correcting the positional deviation due to the movement.

In this way, the suction operation or the mounting operation of the component 5 is performed for each mounting head 15 in the order of the steps of the NC data. At a certain step, the component ID of the component 5 sucked by the suction nozzle 14 If it is stored in the component library data that the reflection lighting system is stored, C
When the mounting head 15 holding the component 5 reaches the recognition station II, the PU 36 adjusts the light source 23 to the reflective illumination system so that the lower surface of the component 5 is directly illuminated with the liquid crystal layer 25 shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. Most of the light from the light source 23 is applied to the lower surface of the component 5, but there is also light that hits the diffuser plate 22.
The light that hits 2 passes through the resin plate 26 but cannot pass through the liquid crystal layer 25, and even if a small amount is reflected on the surface of the liquid crystal layer 25, it is overwhelmingly larger than the amount of light reflected by the white coating layer 24. The amount of light reflected by the diffuser 22 and entering the component recognition device 16 is suppressed to a small amount and is made dark. As shown in FIG. 10, the image of the component 5 picked up by the component recognition device 16 is sufficiently dark so that the image of the component 5 is bright and the portion of the diffuser plate 22 serving as the background has a contrast of the image of the component 5. ing. Accurate position shift recognition processing is performed based on this image. In the image of FIG. 10, the entire component 5 is shown in white for the sake of convenience.
The most protruding metal lead is reflected most strongly, and the mold part is not as bright as the lead part,
The contrast of the image of the lead portion appears due to the difference from the brightness of the diffusion plate 22, and it is important that the brightness of the diffusion plate 22 is dark.

In the present embodiment, the structure of the diffusion plate 22 is such that the resin plate 26 is laminated on the liquid crystal layer 25, but the resin plate 26 is directly laminated on the white coating layer 24, that is, the diffusion plate. It is conceivable to have a structure in which liquid crystal is superposed on the surface of 22, or a structure in which liquid crystal is simply superposed on the white coating layer 24. When the liquid crystal layer is to be formed on the surface of the diffusion plate as described above, a coating may be applied thereon.
