部品供給装置Parts supply device
 本開示は、部品を収容したキャリアテープから部品をピックアップして基板に搭載する部品搭載装置に部品を補充する部品供給装置に関する。 This disclosure relates to a component supplying device that replenishes components to a component mounting device that picks up components from a carrier tape containing the components and mounts them on a substrate.
 従来、基板に部品を搭載する部品搭載装置に用いられる部品供給装置として、部品を収容したキャリアテープを搬送して所定の部品取り出し位置に部品を供給する部品供給装置(テープフィーダ)が知られている。 Conventionally, a component supplying device (tape feeder) used in a component mounting device that mounts components on a board is known, which transports a carrier tape containing components and supplies the components to a predetermined component removal position.
 キャリアテープには部品を収容する複数のポケットが配列されており、それぞれのポケットの中に部品が収容されている。例えば、特許文献1では、外段取りエリアにおいて、部品供給装置であるフィーダに、キャリアテープが巻かれたリールをセッティングし、セッティングが完了した部品供給装置を部品搭載装置に装着している。 The carrier tape has an array of multiple pockets for storing components, and each pocket contains a component.

 しかしながら、例えば、作業台での部品供給装置におけるキャリアテープのセッティングにおいて、ポケットのピッチ情報を用いてキャリアテープを所定の位置に頭出ししているので、ピッチ情報を有する管理装置とアクセス可能な作業台でしかキャリアテープのセッティングができなかった。 However, for example, when setting the carrier tape in a component supply device on a workbench, the pocket pitch information is used to align the carrier tape to a specified position, so the carrier tape could only be set on a workbench that had access to a management device that had the pitch information.
 本開示は、キャリアテープのポケットのピッチ情報を必要とすることなくキャリアテープのセッティングが可能な部品供給装置を提供することを目的とする。 The present disclosure aims to provide a component supply device that can set a carrier tape without requiring information about the pitch of the pockets on the carrier tape.
 本開示の部品供給装置は、キャリアテープに一定のピッチで形成された複数のポケットに収容された部品を供給する部品供給装置である。部品供給装置は、キャリアテープをテープ搬送路に沿って搬送するテープ搬送部と、部品の取り出し用の開口部が設けられ、キャリアテープの上面の一部を押さえるテープカバーと、テープ搬送部がキャリアテープを搬送する搬送量を操作指示する操作部と、キャリアテープの先端部の停止位置を示す目印と、を備える。 The component supply device disclosed herein is a component supply device that supplies components stored in multiple pockets formed at a fixed pitch on a carrier tape. The component supply device includes a tape transport unit that transports the carrier tape along a tape transport path, a tape cover that has an opening for removing components and presses down a portion of the top surface of the carrier tape, an operation unit that operates and instructs the amount of transport of the carrier tape by the tape transport unit, and a mark that indicates the stop position of the tip of the carrier tape.
 本開示によれば、キャリアテープのポケットのピッチ情報を必要とすることなくキャリアテープのセッティングが可能な部品供給装置を提供することができる。 According to the present disclosure, it is possible to provide a component supply device that can set a carrier tape without requiring information on the pitch of the pockets on the carrier tape.

 本開示の第1態様による部品供給装置は、キャリアテープに一定のピッチで形成された複数のポケットに収容された部品を供給する部品供給装置である。部品供給装置は、キャリアテープをテープ搬送路に沿って搬送するテープ搬送部と、部品の取り出し用の開口部が設けられ、キャリアテープの上面の一部を押さえるテープカバーと、テープ搬送部がキャリアテープを搬送する搬送量を操作指示する操作部と、キャリアテープの先端部の停止位置を示す目印と、を備える。 The component supplying device according to the first aspect of the present disclosure is a component supplying device that supplies components stored in multiple pockets formed at a fixed pitch on a carrier tape. The component supplying device includes a tape transport unit that transports the carrier tape along a tape transport path, a tape cover that has an opening for removing components and presses down a portion of the top surface of the carrier tape, an operation unit that operates and instructs the amount of transport of the carrier tape by the tape transport unit, and a mark that indicates the stop position of the tip of the carrier tape.
 これにより、ユーザは、目印の示す位置にキャリアテープの先端部が停止するように、操作部によりキャリアテープの搬送量を操作指示することで、キャリアテープを停止位置に頭出しを行うことができる。したがって、キャリアテープのポケットのピッチ情報が取得できない場合においても、キャリアテープを停止位置に位置決めすることができる。 As a result, the user can use the operation unit to operate and instruct the amount of carrier tape to be fed so that the leading end of the carrier tape stops at the position indicated by the mark, thereby positioning the carrier tape to the stopping position. Therefore, even if the pitch information of the pockets on the carrier tape cannot be obtained, the carrier tape can be positioned at the stopping position.
 本開示の第2の態様によれば、第1の態様の部品供給装置において、停止位置である、または、停止位置よりもテープ搬送路の下流側に位置する、部品取り出し位置は、キャリアテープに形成された複数のポケットのピッチに応じて異なる。 According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, in the component supply device of the first aspect, the component removal position, which is the stop position or is located downstream of the stop position on the tape transport path, varies depending on the pitch of the multiple pockets formed on the carrier tape.
 本開示の第3の態様によれば、第1または第2の態様の部品供給装置において、停止位置は、キャリアテープに形成された複数のポケットのピッチに関係なく同じ位置である。 According to a third aspect of the present disclosure, in the component supply device of the first or second aspect, the stop position is the same regardless of the pitch of the multiple pockets formed on the carrier tape.
 本開示の第4の態様によれば、第1から第4の態様のいずれかの部品供給装置において、停止位置で停止したキャリアテープのポケットに収容された、先頭の部品の少なくとも一部がテープカバーに覆われている。 According to a fourth aspect of the present disclosure, in a component supplying device according to any one of the first to fourth aspects, at least a portion of the leading component housed in a pocket of the carrier tape stopped at the stop position is covered by a tape cover.
 これにより、停止位置で停止された状態では、キャリアテープのポケットに収容された、先頭の部品の少なくとも一部がテープカバーに覆われているので、キャリアテープから部品が外部へ出ようとしてもテープカバーによって阻止される。したがって、停止位置でキャリアテープを停止した状態で部品供給装置を作業台から部品搭載装置へ運ぶ途中で、部品が部品供給装置からこぼれ落ちるのを低減することができる。 As a result, when the carrier tape is stopped at the stop position, at least a portion of the leading component housed in the pocket of the carrier tape is covered by the tape cover, so even if the component attempts to leave the carrier tape, it is prevented by the tape cover. Therefore, when the carrier tape is stopped at the stop position, it is possible to reduce the chance of components falling out of the component supply device while the component supply device is being transported from the workbench to the component mounting device.
 本開示の第5の態様によれば、第1から第4の態様の部品供給装置において、停止位置は、テープカバーの開口部内に位置する。 According to a fifth aspect of the present disclosure, in the component supply device of the first to fourth aspects, the stop position is located within the opening of the tape cover.
 本開示の第6の態様によれば、第5の態様の部品供給装置において、キャリアテープは、ポケットが形成されたベーステープと、ポケットに収容された部品を覆うトップテープと、を有する。停止位置において、キャリアテープは、ポケットに収容された部品を覆っていたトップテープが剥がされた状態である。ポケットに収容された先頭の部品の一部が開口部を通じて露出している。 According to a sixth aspect of the present disclosure, in the component supply device of the fifth aspect, the carrier tape has a base tape in which pockets are formed, and a top tape that covers the components housed in the pockets. At the stopped position, the carrier tape is in a state in which the top tape that covered the components housed in the pockets has been peeled off. A portion of the leading component housed in the pocket is exposed through the opening.
 本開示の第7の態様によれば、第2の態様の部品供給装置において、部品取り出し位置は、テープ搬送路において停止位置からキャリアテープのポケットのピッチの1つ分下流側へ移動した位置である。 According to the seventh aspect of the present disclosure, in the component supply device of the second aspect, the component removal position is a position on the tape transport path that is moved downstream from the stop position by one pocket pitch of the carrier tape.
 本開示の第8の態様によれば、第1から第7の態様のいずれかの部品供給装置において、キャリアテープにおいて、複数のポケットが形成されたピッチは、8mm以上かつ4の倍数の長さである、 According to the eighth aspect of the present disclosure, in the component supply device of any one of the first to seventh aspects, the pitch at which the multiple pockets are formed on the carrier tape is 8 mm or more and a length that is a multiple of 4,
 本開示の第9の態様によれば、第1から第8の態様のいずれかの部品供給装置において、停止位置は、開口部の上流側端部から4mm以上5mm以内の距離に位置している。 According to a ninth aspect of the present disclosure, in the component supply device of any of the first to eighth aspects, the stop position is located at a distance of 4 mm to 5 mm from the upstream end of the opening.
 以下、本開示に係る部品供給装置の例示的な実施の形態について、添付の図面を参照しながら説明する。本開示は、以下の実施の形態の具体的な構成に限定されるものではなく、同様の技術的思想に基づく構成が本開示に含まれる。 Below, exemplary embodiments of the component supply device according to the present disclosure will be described with reference to the attached drawings. The present disclosure is not limited to the specific configurations of the following embodiments, and configurations based on similar technical ideas are included in the present disclosure.
 (実施の形態)
 まず、本開示の実施の形態の部品搭載システム100及び部品搭載装置1について図1を参照して説明する。図1は、部品搭載装置1を備える部品搭載システム100を簡略化して示す要部側面図である。
(Embodiment)
First, a component mounting system 100 and a component mounting device 1 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to Fig. 1. Fig. 1 is a side view of a main part of the component mounting system 100 including the component mounting device 1 in a simplified manner.
 部品搭載システム100は、基板4に部品5を搭載して実装基板を製造するためのシステムである。部品搭載システム100は、部品搭載装置1と、管理装置92と、携帯型情報端末95と、ネットワーク96とを備える。 The component mounting system 100 is a system for manufacturing a mounting board by mounting components 5 on a substrate 4. The component mounting system 100 includes a component mounting device 1, a management device 92, a portable information terminal 95, and a network 96.
 部品搭載装置1は、上流工程の他の装置から搬入した基板4に部品5を搭載して下流工程の他の装置に搬出する一連の部品搭載作業を繰り返し実行する装置である。部品搭載装置1は、本体部2と、部品供給部3とを備える。 The component mounting device 1 is a device that repeatedly performs a series of component mounting operations, mounting components 5 on a board 4 delivered from another device in an upstream process, and delivering the board to another device in a downstream process. The component mounting device 1 includes a main body unit 2 and a component supply unit 3.
 本体部2は、基台11、基板搬送部12、搭載ヘッド13、ヘッド移動機構14、操作部16、本体制御部17を備える。基板搬送部12はコンベア機構を備え、上流工程の装置から受け取った基板4を水平方向に搬送して所定の作業位置に位置決めする。本実施の形態では、部品搭載装置1における基板4の搬送方向をX方向(横方向)とし、上下方向をZ方向とする。また、X方向とZ方向の双方に直交する方向をY方向(前後方向)とする。操作部16は本体部2の側面に設置されている。操作部16はその表面にはタッチスクリーン16aを有しており、タッチスクリーン16aに部品搭載装置1の操作に必要な情報や操作ボタン等を表示する。また、タッチスクリーン16aは、部品搭載装置1の作業状態や警告などの情報を表示し、作業者へ情報を報知する報知部としても機能する。 The main body 2 includes a base 11, a board transport unit 12, a mounting head 13, a head moving mechanism 14, an operation unit 16, and a main body control unit 17. The board transport unit 12 includes a conveyor mechanism, and transports the board 4 received from an upstream process device in a horizontal direction and positions it at a predetermined work position. In this embodiment, the transport direction of the board 4 in the component mounting device 1 is the X direction (horizontal direction), and the up-down direction is the Z direction. The direction perpendicular to both the X direction and the Z direction is the Y direction (front-back direction). The operation unit 16 is installed on the side of the main body 2. The operation unit 16 has a touch screen 16a on its surface, and displays information and operation buttons required for operating the component mounting device 1 on the touch screen 16a. The touch screen 16a also displays information such as the working status and warnings of the component mounting device 1, and also functions as a notification unit that notifies the operator of the information.
 搭載ヘッド13は下方に延びた複数のノズル13aを備えている。各ノズル13aの下端に部品5を吸着する真空吸引力を発生させる。ヘッド移動機構14は例えばXYテーブルを備え、搭載ヘッド13をXY面内で移動させる。 The mounting head 13 is equipped with multiple nozzles 13a extending downward. The lower end of each nozzle 13a generates a vacuum suction force that attracts the component 5. The head movement mechanism 14 is equipped with, for example, an XY table, and moves the mounting head 13 within the XY plane.
 部品供給部3は、台車21と部品供給装置23を備えている。台車21には、ユニットベース31とリール保持部32が設けられている。 The parts supply unit 3 includes a cart 21 and a parts supply device 23. The cart 21 includes a unit base 31 and a reel holding unit 32.
 ユニットベース31は、部品供給装置23を装着するための部材である。ユニットベース31には、部品供給装置23を装着するための装着スロット(図示せず)がX方向に等間隔で複数設けられている。部品供給装置23は、部品搭載装置1の搭載ヘッド13に部品5を供給するものであり、例えば、テープフィーダである。 The unit base 31 is a member for mounting the component supply device 23. The unit base 31 has a plurality of mounting slots (not shown) at equal intervals in the X direction for mounting the component supply device 23. The component supply device 23 supplies components 5 to the mounting head 13 of the component mounting device 1, and is, for example, a tape feeder.
 リール保持部32は、キャリアテープ24を巻回収容したリール22を装着して保持する。リール保持部32には、リール22を保持するための保持具(図示せず)が複数設けられている。 The reel holding section 32 mounts and holds the reel 22 on which the carrier tape 24 is wound. The reel holding section 32 is provided with multiple holders (not shown) for holding the reel 22.
 リール22には、キャリアテープ24に梱包された部品に関する情報(以下、部品情報と呼ぶ)を含んだバーコード28が取り付けられている。バーコード28は、部品情報を含む情報をコード化した識別子の一種であるが、一次元コードに限らず、二次元コード等の他の識別子であってもよい。 A barcode 28 containing information about the parts packed in the carrier tape 24 (hereinafter referred to as part information) is attached to the reel 22. The barcode 28 is a type of identifier that encodes information including part information, but is not limited to a one-dimensional code and may be another type of identifier such as a two-dimensional code.
 ユニットベース31には、複数の部品供給装置23をX方向に並べて装着することができる。部品供給装置23のそれぞれには開口部23b(図7参照)が設けられている。ユニットベース31に装着された各部品供給装置23は、それぞれ装着されたキャリアテープ24を前方に向けて搬送し、所定の位置の開口部23bにキャリアテープ24に保持された部品5を供給する。開口部23bへ供給された部品5は搭載ヘッド13によりピックアップされ、基板4に搭載される。 A number of component supply devices 23 can be mounted on the unit base 31, lined up in the X direction. Each of the component supply devices 23 is provided with an opening 23b (see Figure 7). Each component supply device 23 mounted on the unit base 31 transports the respective mounted carrier tape 24 forward and supplies a component 5 held on the carrier tape 24 to the opening 23b at a predetermined position. The component 5 supplied to the opening 23b is picked up by the mounting head 13 and mounted on the board 4.
 部品搭載装置1が部品搭載作業を行うときには、先ず、基板搬送部12が作動して外部から基板4を搬入し、所定の作業位置に位置決めする。基板搬送部12によって基板4が作業位置に位置決めされたら、部品供給装置23が開口部23bに部品5を供給する動作と、ヘッド移動機構14が搭載ヘッド13を移動させる動作との連動による搭載ターンを繰り返し実行する。 When the component mounting device 1 performs a component mounting operation, first the board transport unit 12 operates to bring in the board 4 from outside and position it at a prescribed work position. Once the board 4 has been positioned at the work position by the board transport unit 12, the component supply device 23 repeatedly performs a mounting turn by linking the operation of supplying the component 5 to the opening 23b with the operation of the head movement mechanism 14 to move the mounting head 13.
 搭載ヘッド13は1つの搭載ターンにおいて、部品供給装置23の上方位置に移動してノズル13aで部品5を吸着(ピックアップ)した後、基板4の上方位置に移動し、部品5を基板4に搭載する一連の動作を行う。搭載ターンが繰り返し実行されることによって、基板4に搭載されるべき全ての部品5が搭載されたら、基板搬送部12が作動して、基板4を下流工程の装置に搬出する。これにより、基板4の1枚当たりの部品搭載作業が終了する。 In one mounting turn, the mounting head 13 moves to a position above the component supply device 23 and picks up the component 5 with the nozzle 13a, then moves to a position above the board 4 and performs a series of operations to mount the component 5 on the board 4. Once all the components 5 to be mounted on the board 4 have been mounted by repeatedly executing the mounting turn, the board transport unit 12 operates and transports the board 4 to a downstream process device. This completes the component mounting work for one board 4.
 管理装置92は、部品搭載装置1と通信可能に接続されており、部品搭載装置1の生産情報をまとめて管理する。管理装置92は、例えば、ホストコンピュータであり、例えば、マイコン、CPU、MPU、GPU、DSP、FPGA、またはASIC等の回路で構成することができる。管理装置92の機能は、ハードウェアとソフトウェアとを組み合わせることにより実現される。管理装置92は、記憶部に格納されたデータやプログラムを読み出して種々の演算処理を行うことで、予め定められた機能を実現する。 The management device 92 is connected to the part mounting device 1 so as to be able to communicate with it, and collectively manages the production information of the part mounting device 1. The management device 92 is, for example, a host computer, and can be configured with circuits such as a microcomputer, a CPU, an MPU, a GPU, a DSP, an FPGA, or an ASIC. The functions of the management device 92 are realized by combining hardware and software. The management device 92 realizes predetermined functions by reading data and programs stored in the memory unit and performing various arithmetic processing.
 携帯型情報端末95は、それを携行する作業者に対して管理装置92からの通知や、部品搭載装置1の状態を確認するための部材である。携帯型情報端末95は、部品供給装置23で使用するリール22およびキャリアテープ24の部品情報を取得する情報取得装置の一種である。携帯型情報端末95は例えば、キャリアテープ24を収容した収容体(リールやカセット)に設けたバーコード28を読取可能なバーコードリーダを有する。 The portable information terminal 95 is a component that allows the worker who carries it to receive notifications from the management device 92 and check the status of the component mounting device 1. The portable information terminal 95 is a type of information acquisition device that acquires component information of the reel 22 and carrier tape 24 used in the component supply device 23. The portable information terminal 95 has, for example, a barcode reader that can read the barcode 28 provided on the container (reel or cassette) that contains the carrier tape 24.
 携帯型情報端末95は、WiFi等で管理装置92と無線接続され、管理装置92と通信可能である。携帯型情報端末95は、部品搭載装置1と通信可能であってもよい。携帯型情報端末95で取得した部品情報は、管理装置92に送信される。携帯型情報端末95は表示パネル95aを備えており、作業者へ通知する情報等を表示する。なお本実施の形態では情報取得部として携帯型情報端末95を例に説明しているが、バーコードリーダを有するものであればよい。またバーコード28に替えて無線タグが使用される場合は無線タグの情報を読み取るリーダを有するものであればよい。 The portable information terminal 95 is wirelessly connected to the management device 92 via Wi-Fi or the like, and can communicate with the management device 92.

FIG. 2 is a side view that shows the feeder operation device 300 and the component supply device 23 attached to the feeder operation device 300.
 フィーダ作業装置300は、図1に示した部品搭載装置1のユニットベース31とは別に、部品供給装置23を一時的に装着して作業するための装置である。例えば、ユニットベース31に装着して使用していた部品供給装置23にエラー等が発生した場合に、ユニットベース31から部品供給装置23を取り外してフィーダ作業装置300に装着する。これにより、部品供給装置23を給電状態として各種復旧作業を行うことができる。 The feeder work device 300 is a device for temporarily mounting and working on the component supply device 23, separate from the unit base 31 of the component mounting device 1 shown in FIG. 1. For example, if an error occurs in the component supply device 23 that has been mounted on the unit base 31 and is being used, the component supply device 23 is removed from the unit base 31 and mounted on the feeder work device 300. This allows the component supply device 23 to be powered and various recovery operations to be carried out.
 フィーダ作業装置300は、作業台302と、給電部304とを備える。作業台302は、部品供給装置23を装着して支持するための部材であり、部品供給装置23を装着するための装着スロット(図示せず)を有する。給電部304は、作業台302に装着された部品供給装置23のユニット制御部64に電力を供給するための部材であり、作業台302に内蔵される。給電部304は例えば電源である。 The feeder work device 300 includes a work table 302 and a power supply unit 304. The work table 302 is a member for mounting and supporting the component supply device 23, and has a mounting slot (not shown) for mounting the component supply device 23. The power supply unit 304 is a member for supplying power to the unit control unit 64 of the component supply device 23 mounted on the work table 302, and is built into the work table 302. The power supply unit 304 is, for example, a power source.
 フィーダ作業装置300に装着された部品供給装置23は、部品搭載装置1や管理装置92とは通信できない「オフライン状態」となる。 The component supply device 23 attached to the feeder work device 300 is in an "offline state" in which it cannot communicate with the component mounting device 1 or the management device 92.

《部品供給装置》
 次に、図4を参照して、部品供給装置23の詳細な構成について説明する。図4は、本実施の形態の部品供給装置23の概略図である。
Parts supply device
Next, a detailed configuration of the component supply device 23 will be described with reference to Fig. 4. Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of the component supply device 23 according to the present embodiment.
 部品供給装置23は、テープ搬送路60と、テープ搬送部61と、ユニット制御部64と、ユニット側コネクタ65と、を備える。また、部品供給装置23は、テープ搬送路60へキャリアテープ24を投入するテープ入口23aと、部品を供給する開口部23bと、テープ搬送路60からキャリアテープ24が排出される排出口23cを備える。 The component supply device 23 includes a tape transport path 60, a tape transport unit 61, a unit control unit 64, and a unit side connector 65. The component supply device 23 also includes a tape inlet 23a for feeding the carrier tape 24 into the tape transport path 60, an opening 23b for supplying components, and an outlet 23c for discharging the carrier tape 24 from the tape transport path 60.
 テープ搬送路60は、部品供給装置23の本体部23dに形成されており、リール22から引き出されてテープ入口23aから部品供給装置23内に挿入されたキャリアテープ24を、部品供給装置23の内部を通って、開口部23b内の部品取り出し位置Paへ案内し、さらに、排出口23cへ導く。 The tape transport path 60 is formed in the main body 23d of the component supply device 23, and guides the carrier tape 24 that is pulled out from the reel 22 and inserted into the component supply device 23 from the tape inlet 23a through the inside of the component supply device 23 to the component removal position Pa in the opening 23b, and then to the discharge outlet 23c.
 テープ入口23aは、部品供給装置23におけるテープ送り方向の上流側に開口している。排出口23cは、テープ送り方向の下流側に開口している。テープ搬送路60は、テープ入口23aから排出口23cまで連通している。テープ搬送路60の下流側に設けられた部品取り出し位置Paにおいて、搭載ヘッド13が部品5を取り出す。 The tape inlet 23a opens on the upstream side of the tape feed direction in the component supply device 23. The outlet 23c opens on the downstream side of the tape feed direction. The tape transport path 60 connects from the tape inlet 23a to the outlet 23c. The mounting head 13 removes the component 5 at the component removal position Pa located downstream of the tape transport path 60.
 テープ搬送部61は、テープ搬送路60における下流側において、キャリアテープ24を部品取り出し位置Paに搬送する。テープ搬送部61は、キャリアテープ24の送り孔54に係合する第1搬送スプロケット61aと、第2搬送スプロケット61bと、第3搬送スプロケット61cと、駆動部61dと、を備える。 The tape transport unit 61 transports the carrier tape 24 to the component removal position Pa on the downstream side of the tape transport path 60. The tape transport unit 61 includes a first transport sprocket 61a that engages with the feed hole 54 of the carrier tape 24, a second transport sprocket 61b, a third transport sprocket 61c, and a drive unit 61d.
 第1搬送スプロケット61a、第2搬送スプロケット61b、及び第3搬送スプロケット61cが、テープ搬送路60に沿って、下流側から順に配置されている。 The first transport sprocket 61a, the second transport sprocket 61b, and the third transport sprocket 61c are arranged in order from the downstream side along the tape transport path 60.
 駆動部61dは、例えば、動力源としてのモータ61eと、動力源の動力を第1から第3搬送スプロケット61a~61cに伝達する動力伝達部材と、モータ61eの回転量を検出するセンサ61fを備える。動力伝達部材は、例えば、ギアである。 The drive unit 61d includes, for example, a motor 61e as a power source, a power transmission member that transmits the power of the power source to the first to third conveying sprockets 61a to 61c, and a sensor 61f that detects the amount of rotation of the motor 61e. The power transmission member is, for example, a gear.
 テープ搬送部61は、キャリアテープ24をテープ搬送路60に沿って搬送して部品取り出し位置Paに部品5を供給するテープ搬送部として機能する。 The tape transport unit 61 functions as a tape transport unit that transports the carrier tape 24 along the tape transport path 60 and supplies the component 5 to the component removal position Pa.
 部品供給装置23は、テープ搬送路60に沿って上流側から順に配置された、第1センサPH1、及び、第2センサPH2を備える。 The component supply device 23 includes a first sensor PH1 and a second sensor PH2 arranged in order from the upstream side along the tape transport path 60.
 第1センサPH1は、テープ搬送路60の露出部66及び第3搬送スプロケット61cよりも上流側においてキャリアテープ24の有無を検出する。第1センサPH1がテープ搬送路60においてキャリアテープ24の有無を検出する位置が第1の位置Pn1である。第1センサPH1は、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが第1の位置Pn1を通過すると、検出信号をユニット制御部64へ送信する。 The first sensor PH1 detects the presence or absence of the carrier tape 24 upstream of the exposed portion 66 of the tape transport path 60 and the third transport sprocket 61c. The position where the first sensor PH1 detects the presence or absence of the carrier tape 24 in the tape transport path 60 is the first position Pn1. When the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 passes the first position Pn1, the first sensor PH1 sends a detection signal to the unit control unit 64.
 第2センサPH2は、テープ搬送路60の露出部66よりも下流かつ部品取り出し位置Paより上流側においてキャリアテープ24の有無を検出する。第2センサPH2は、キャリアテープ24の存在を検出すると、検出信号をユニット制御部64へ送信する。第1センサPH1及び第2センサPH2は、それぞれの配置場所においてキャリアテープ24の有無を直接または間接的に検出する光学センサであり、例えば、反射型または透過型のフォトセンサである。 The second sensor PH2 detects the presence or absence of the carrier tape 24 downstream of the exposed portion 66 of the tape transport path 60 and upstream of the component removal position Pa. When the second sensor PH2 detects the presence of the carrier tape 24, it transmits a detection signal to the unit control unit 64. The first sensor PH1 and the second sensor PH2 are optical sensors that directly or indirectly detect the presence or absence of the carrier tape 24 at their respective locations, and are, for example, reflective or transmissive photosensors.
 露出部66は、キャリアテープ24(図3参照)のトップテープ52をキャリアテープ24から剥離してキャリアテープ24に梱包された部品5を露出させる。本実施の形態の露出部66は、エアーとローラとを用いてトップテープ52をキャリアテープ24から剥離する方式を採用しているが、カッター等でトップテープ52を切り開く等して部品5を露出させるものでもよい。なお、以後の説明において、ベーステープ51からトップテープ52が剥離された後は、トップテープ52が剥離されたベーステープ51を、キャリアテープ24とも称する。 The exposed portion 66 peels the top tape 52 of the carrier tape 24 (see FIG. 3) from the carrier tape 24 to expose the components 5 packed in the carrier tape 24. In this embodiment, the exposed portion 66 employs a method of peeling the top tape 52 from the carrier tape 24 using air and a roller, but the components 5 may also be exposed by cutting the top tape 52 open with a cutter or the like. In the following explanation, after the top tape 52 has been peeled from the base tape 51, the base tape 51 from which the top tape 52 has been peeled is also referred to as the carrier tape 24.
 露出部66が配置された位置よりも下流側に、第2センサPH2が配置されている。第2センサPH2による検出結果はユニット制御部64に送られる。なお、第2センサPH2は、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aと機械的に接触可能なドグを設け、キャリアテープ24がドグと接触した際に起こるドグの変位を光学センサで検出することにより、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aを検出してもよい。ドグの変位を光学センサで検出する方式であれば、キャリアテープ24が光透過性の素材で形成されている場合でもキャリアテープ24を確実に検出することが可能になる。 The second sensor PH2 is disposed downstream of the position where the exposed portion 66 is disposed. The detection result by the second sensor PH2 is sent to the unit control unit 64. The second sensor PH2 may be provided with a dog that can mechanically contact the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24, and detect the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 by using an optical sensor to detect the displacement of the dog that occurs when the carrier tape 24 comes into contact with the dog. If the method detects the displacement of the dog with an optical sensor, it is possible to reliably detect the carrier tape 24 even if the carrier tape 24 is made of a light-transmitting material.

The operation switch group 33 includes, for example, switches 33a, 33b, 33c, 33d, and 33e. Switch 33a, for example, instructs driving of the tape transport unit 61. Switch 33b instructs forward drive to feed the carrier tape 24 in the forward direction. Switch 33c instructs reverse drive to feed the carrier tape 24 in the reverse direction. The amount of transport of the carrier tape 24 can be adjusted by the number of times and time that switches 33b and 33c are pressed. Other functions can be performed by pressing switches 33d and 33e.
 表示部34は、部品供給装置23に関する情報を表示する。図5に示す表示部34は、7セグディスプレイ35と、ランプ36、37とを含む。7セグディスプレイ35は、数値や文字を表示するための部分である。7セグディスプレイ35は例えば、部品供給装置23やキャリアテープ24の状態の他、発生したエラーの情報を表示する。ランプ36、37は、作業者に対して通知を行うように点灯可能なランプである。ランプ36、37は例えば、LEDを有し、複数の部品供給装置23のうち、作業対象である部品供給装置23を作業者に知らせるために点灯する。したがって、表示部34は、部品供給装置23の作業状態や警告などの情報を表示し、作業者へ情報を報知する報知部としても機能する。 The display unit 34 displays information related to the part supply device 23. The display unit 34 shown in FIG. 5 includes a seven-segment display 35 and lamps 36 and 37. The seven-segment display 35 is a section for displaying numerical values and characters. The seven-segment display 35 displays, for example, the status of the part supply device 23 and the carrier tape 24, as well as information on any errors that have occurred. The lamps 36 and 37 are lamps that can be turned on to notify the worker. The lamps 36 and 37 have, for example, LEDs, and turn on to notify the worker which of the multiple part supply devices 23 is the part supply device 23 that is the target of the work. Thus, the display unit 34 displays information such as the work status and warnings of the part supply device 23, and also functions as a notification unit that notifies the worker of the information.

The "reel ID" is identification information for identifying the reel 22 that contains the carrier tape 24. The "component name" is information that indicates the name of the component 5 held by the carrier tape 24 contained in the reel 22. The "component name" here may also be the name of the component 5 that the component supply device 23 should supply by referring to the production program 111.

 本体記憶部45は、例えば、ハードディスク(HDD)、SSD、RAM、DRAM、強誘電体メモリ、フラッシュメモリ、磁気ディスク、又はこれらの組み合わせによって実現できる。 The main body storage unit 45 can be realized, for example, by a hard disk drive (HDD), SSD, RAM, DRAM, ferroelectric memory, flash memory, magnetic disk, or a combination of these.
 部品搭載制御部41は、ヘッド移動機構14の動作制御を行うことで、吸着した部品5が装着されるべき基板4の対応する位置へ搭載ヘッド13を移動させる。また、部品搭載制御部41は、ユニット制御部64のテープ搬送制御部64aと同じ機能を有し、本体部2から直接テープ搬送部61を動作制御して、部品供給装置23に装着されたキャリアテープ24の送り動作を制御する。テープ搬送部61の動作制御は、部品供給装置23のユニット制御部64で行ってもよいし、本体部2の本体制御部17で行ってもよい。 The component mounting control unit 41 controls the operation of the head moving mechanism 14 to move the mounting head 13 to the corresponding position on the board 4 where the adsorbed component 5 is to be mounted. The component mounting control unit 41 also has the same function as the tape transport control unit 64a of the unit control unit 64, and controls the operation of the tape transport unit 61 directly from the main body 2 to control the feeding operation of the carrier tape 24 mounted on the component supply device 23. The operation of the tape transport unit 61 may be controlled by the unit control unit 64 of the component supply device 23, or by the main body control unit 17 of the main body 2.
 ピッチ情報取得部43は、管理装置92の管理記憶部94に記憶されている生産プログラム111に含まれるピッチ情報を取得して、本体記憶部45へ記憶する。 The pitch information acquisition unit 43 acquires pitch information contained in the production program 111 stored in the management memory unit 94 of the management device 92, and stores it in the main body memory unit 45.
 次に図7から図9を参照して、フィーダ作業装置300においてセッティングされた部品供給装置23のキャリアテープ24の停止位置について説明する。図7は、部品供給装置23の平面図である。図8及び図9は、開口部23b周辺の部品供給装置23の平面図である。 Next, referring to Figures 7 to 9, the stopping position of the carrier tape 24 of the component supply device 23 set in the feeder work device 300 will be described. Figure 7 is a plan view of the component supply device 23. Figures 8 and 9 are plan views of the component supply device 23 around the opening 23b.
 図7に示すように、部品取り出し位置Pa周辺における部品供給装置23の本体部23dの上部にテープカバー81が配置されている。テープカバー81は、本体部23dを構成する2つの対向するフレーム23da、23dbの上部に跨がるように配置されている。テープカバー81は、テープ搬送路60に沿って搬送されるキャリアテープ24の上面の側部を押さえることで、キャリアテープ24の浮き上がりを防止することができる。 As shown in FIG. 7, a tape cover 81 is disposed on the top of the main body 23d of the component supply device 23 near the component removal position Pa. The tape cover 81 is disposed so as to straddle the tops of the two opposing frames 23da, 23db that make up the main body 23d. The tape cover 81 presses down on the sides of the top surface of the carrier tape 24 transported along the tape transport path 60, thereby preventing the carrier tape 24 from floating up.
 テープカバー81には開口部23bが設けられており、開口部23bは、例えば、テープ搬送方向を長辺とする矩形形状である。開口部23bを通して、トップテープ52が剥がされたキャリアテープ24のポケット53に収容されている部品5が露出される。部品取り出し位置Paは開口部23b内に位置している。 The tape cover 81 has an opening 23b, which is, for example, rectangular in shape with its long side in the tape transport direction. Through the opening 23b, the components 5 housed in the pockets 53 of the carrier tape 24 from which the top tape 52 has been peeled off are exposed. The component removal position Pa is located within the opening 23b.
 図8に示すように、テープカバー81には、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが停止される位置を示すマーク83が配置されている。このマーク83が指し示す位置が第2の位置Pn2である。停止位置としての第2の位置Pn2は、例えば、テープカバー81の開口部23b内に位置し、開口部23bの上流側端部よりも下流側で部品取り出し位置Paよりも上流側に位置する。図8は、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが開口部23bの上流側端部よりも下流側に搬送されて、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが露出している状態を示す。マーク83は、三角形に限らず、矢印や、直線等、他の目印を採用してもよい。 As shown in FIG. 8, a mark 83 is arranged on the tape cover 81 to indicate the position where the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 is stopped. The position indicated by this mark 83 is the second position Pn2. The second position Pn2 as a stop position is, for example, located within the opening 23b of the tape cover 81, downstream of the upstream end of the opening 23b and upstream of the component removal position Pa. FIG. 8 shows a state in which the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 has been transported downstream of the upstream end of the opening 23b and is exposed. The mark 83 is not limited to a triangle, and other marks such as an arrow or a straight line may be used.
 さらに、キャリアテープ24が搬送されて図9に示すように、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが第2の位置Pn2に到達してキャリアテープ24の搬送が停止される。このように、第2の位置Pn2は、キャリアテープ24の停止位置である。 Furthermore, the carrier tape 24 is transported until the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 reaches the second position Pn2, as shown in FIG. 9, and the transport of the carrier tape 24 is stopped. Thus, the second position Pn2 is the stopping position of the carrier tape 24.
 次に、フィーダ作業装置300における部品供給装置23のキャリアテープ24のセッティングについて説明する。図2に示すように、キャリアテープ24がまだセットされていない状態の部品供給装置23が、作業台302に装着される。作業台302に装着された部品供給装置23は、給電部304から電力が供給される。作業者は、この状態でキャリアテープ24を部品供給装置23にセッティングする。 Next, the setting of the carrier tape 24 of the component supply device 23 in the feeder work device 300 will be described. As shown in FIG. 2, the component supply device 23 without the carrier tape 24 yet set is mounted on the work bench 302. The component supply device 23 mounted on the work bench 302 is supplied with power from the power supply unit 304. In this state, the worker sets the carrier tape 24 on the component supply device 23.
 図10を参照する。作業者は、部品供給装置23のテープ入口23aからキャリアテープ24を挿入し、テープ搬送路60に沿ってキャリアテープ24を下流側へ移動させる。 Refer to Figure 10. The worker inserts the carrier tape 24 into the tape inlet 23a of the component supply device 23 and moves the carrier tape 24 downstream along the tape transport path 60.
 作業者がキャリアテープ24を送り続けると、図11に示すように、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが第3搬送スプロケット61cのピンに当たる。このとき、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aの半円の送り孔54が第3搬送スプロケット61cのピンに当たる。作業者は、挿入していたキャリアテープ24が下流側に移動させることができないので、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが第3搬送スプロケット61cのピンに当たっていることを知ることができる。 As the worker continues to feed the carrier tape 24, as shown in FIG. 11, the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 hits the pin of the third transport sprocket 61c. At this time, the semicircular feed hole 54 in the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 hits the pin of the third transport sprocket 61c. The worker can tell that the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 is hitting the pin of the third transport sprocket 61c because the inserted carrier tape 24 cannot be moved downstream.
 この状態で、作業者は、操作パネル18の操作スイッチ群33のスイッチ33bを押下することでテープ搬送部61が駆動して、作業者がスイッチ33bを押下している間、駆動部61dのモータ61eが回転駆動して、第3搬送スプロケット61cの回転により第3搬送スプロケット61cのピンがキャリアテープ24の送り孔54に挿入され、キャリアテープ24がさらに、下流側へ搬送される。 In this state, the operator presses switch 33b of the group of operation switches 33 on the operation panel 18 to drive the tape transport unit 61, and while the operator is pressing switch 33b, the motor 61e of the drive unit 61d rotates and the pin of the third transport sprocket 61c is inserted into the feed hole 54 of the carrier tape 24 as the third transport sprocket 61c rotates, and the carrier tape 24 is transported further downstream.
 キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが第2センサPH2により検出されると露出部66にトップテープ52を捕捉させる動作がテープ搬送部61によって行われる。 When the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 is detected by the second sensor PH2, the tape transport unit 61 performs an operation to capture the top tape 52 in the exposed portion 66.
 露出部66がトップテープ52を捕捉すると、露出部66及び第3搬送スプロケット61cにより、トップテープ52が剥離されながらキャリアテープ24がさらに下流側に搬送される。 When the exposed portion 66 captures the top tape 52, the exposed portion 66 and the third transport sprocket 61c transport the carrier tape 24 further downstream while peeling off the top tape 52.
 キャリアテープ24がさらに下流側に搬送されると、図12に示すように、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aの半円の送り孔54が第2搬送スプロケット61bのピンに当たる。 When the carrier tape 24 is transported further downstream, as shown in FIG. 12, the semicircular feed hole 54 in the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 hits the pin of the second transport sprocket 61b.
 第2搬送スプロケット61bの回転に伴って、第2搬送スプロケット61bのピンがキャリアテープ24の送り孔54に挿入され、さらにキャリアテープ24がさらに下流側へ搬送される。 As the second transport sprocket 61b rotates, the pins of the second transport sprocket 61b are inserted into the feed holes 54 of the carrier tape 24, and the carrier tape 24 is transported further downstream.
 次に、図13に示すように、作業者は、テープカバー81の開口部23bを介して見えるキャリアテープ24の先端部24aがマーク83の示す第2の位置Pn2で停止するように、操作パネル18の操作スイッチ群33のスイッチ33b及び33cを操作する。これにより、モータ61eが第2搬送スプロケット61bを回転駆動してキャリアテープ24の先端部24aに位置決めする。 Next, as shown in FIG. 13, the operator operates the switches 33b and 33c of the operation switch group 33 of the operation panel 18 so that the leading end 24a of the carrier tape 24 visible through the opening 23b of the tape cover 81 stops at the second position Pn2 indicated by the mark 83. This causes the motor 61e to rotate and drive the second transport sprocket 61b to position the leading end 24a of the carrier tape 24.
 作業者は、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされると、部品供給装置23をフィーダ作業装置300の作業台302から取り外し、部品搭載装置1のユニットベース31に装着する。次に、図14に示すように、作業者が部品取り出し位置Paへの頭出しの指示を例えば、スイッチ33dを押下して指示すると、ユニット制御部64がモータ61eを駆動制御する。モータ61eが第2搬送スプロケット61bを回転駆動してキャリアテープ24のポケット53のピッチの整数倍の長さ分キャリアテープ24を送り出して、先頭の部品5が収容されたポケット53を部品取り出し位置Paに位置決めする。したがって、部品取り出し位置Paは、キャリアテープ24のポケット53のピッチPtによって異なる位置である。 When the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 is positioned at the second position Pn2, the worker removes the component supplying device 23 from the work table 302 of the feeder work device 300 and attaches it to the unit base 31 of the component mounting device 1. Next, as shown in FIG. 14, when the worker instructs to position the component at the component removal position Pa, for example by pressing the switch 33d, the unit control unit 64 drives and controls the motor 61e. The motor 61e rotates and drives the second transport sprocket 61b to feed the carrier tape 24 by a length that is an integer multiple of the pitch of the pockets 53 of the carrier tape 24, and positions the pocket 53 containing the leading component 5 at the component removal position Pa. Therefore, the component removal position Pa is a different position depending on the pitch Pt of the pockets 53 of the carrier tape 24.
 次に、第2の位置Pn2と、キャリアテープ24のそれぞれのポケット53のピッチPtに対応した部品取り出し位置Paについて説明する。図15は、8mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24が第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされた状態を示す説明図である。図16は、8mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24が部品取り出し位置Paに位置決めされた状態を示す説明図である。 Next, we will explain the second position Pn2 and the component removal position Pa corresponding to the pitch Pt of each pocket 53 on the carrier tape 24. Figure 15 is an explanatory diagram showing the state in which the carrier tape 24 of the pocket 53 with an 8 mm pitch is positioned at the second position Pn2. Figure 16 is an explanatory diagram showing the state in which the carrier tape 24 of the pocket 53 with an 8 mm pitch is positioned at the component removal position Pa.
 図15に示すように、開口部23bの上流側端部からマーク83が示す第2の位置Pn2までの距離L1は、例えば、4mm以上5mm以下であり、本実施の形態において4.5mmに設定されている。8mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24の場合、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aはポケット53の一部を切断した状態である。 As shown in FIG. 15, the distance L1 from the upstream end of the opening 23b to the second position Pn2 indicated by the mark 83 is, for example, 4 mm or more and 5 mm or less, and is set to 4.5 mm in this embodiment. In the case of a carrier tape 24 with pockets 53 at an 8 mm pitch, the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 is in a state where a part of the pocket 53 has been cut off.
 第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされたキャリアテープ24は、先頭の部品5が収容されたポケット53の一部が開口部23bを通して露出している。したがって、作業者は部品5の一部を目視で確認することができる。この状態で、部品供給装置23を移動しても先頭の部品5の一部がテープカバー81で覆われているので、ポケット53から外部へこぼれ落ちることを低減することができる。 When the carrier tape 24 is positioned at the second position Pn2, a portion of the pocket 53 containing the leading component 5 is exposed through the opening 23b. This allows the worker to visually check part of the component 5. In this state, even if the component supply device 23 is moved, part of the leading component 5 is covered by the tape cover 81, reducing the chance of the component spilling out of the pocket 53.
 部品搭載装置1のユニットベース31に装着された部品供給装置23は、作業者の指示により、図16に示すように、テープ搬送部が第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされたキャリアテープ24を距離L2搬送してキャリアテープ24の先端部24aを第3の位置Pn3に位置決めする。距離L2はポケット53のピッチPtの整数倍の長さであり、本実施の形態において、1ピッチPtの長さである。 In response to an instruction from an operator, the component supply device 23 mounted on the unit base 31 of the component mounting device 1 transports the carrier tape 24, which has been positioned at the second position Pn2, a distance L2 as shown in FIG. 16, and positions the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 at the third position Pn3. The distance L2 is an integer multiple of the pitch Pt of the pockets 53, and in this embodiment, is the length of one pitch Pt.
 第3の位置Pn3において、部品5が収容された先頭のポケット53の位置が部品取り出し位置Paである。搭載ヘッド13のノズル13aは部品取り出し位置Paに移動して部品5を吸着する。 At the third position Pn3, the position of the first pocket 53 containing the component 5 is the component removal position Pa. The nozzle 13a of the mounting head 13 moves to the component removal position Pa and picks up the component 5.
 次に、図17及び図18を参照して、12mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24について説明する。図17は、12mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24が第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされた状態を示す説明図である。図18は、12mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24が部品取り出し位置Paに位置決めされた状態を示す説明図である。 Next, the carrier tape 24 of the 12 mm pitch pocket 53 will be described with reference to Figures 17 and 18. Figure 17 is an explanatory diagram showing the state in which the carrier tape 24 of the 12 mm pitch pocket 53 is positioned at the second position Pn2. Figure 18 is an explanatory diagram showing the state in which the carrier tape 24 of the 12 mm pitch pocket 53 is positioned at the component removal position Pa.
 図17に示すように、12mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24の場合、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aはポケット53とポケット53との間の位置である。第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされたキャリアテープ24は、先頭の部品5が収容されたポケット53の一部が開口部23bを通して露出している。したがって、作業者は部品5の一部を目視で確認することができる。この状態で、部品供給装置23を移動しても先頭の部品5の一部がテープカバー81で覆われているので、ポケット53から外部へこぼれ落ちることを低減することができる。 As shown in FIG. 17, in the case of a carrier tape 24 with pockets 53 at a 12 mm pitch, the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 is located between the pockets 53. When the carrier tape 24 is positioned at the second position Pn2, part of the pocket 53 containing the leading component 5 is exposed through the opening 23b. Therefore, the worker can visually confirm part of the component 5. In this state, even if the component supply device 23 is moved, part of the leading component 5 is covered by the tape cover 81, so it is possible to reduce the component from spilling out of the pocket 53.
 部品搭載装置1のユニットベース31に装着された部品供給装置23は、作業者の指示により、図18に示すように、テープ搬送部が第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされたキャリアテープ24を距離L2搬送してキャリアテープ24の先端部24aを第3の位置Pn3に位置決めする。 In response to an instruction from an operator, the component supply device 23 mounted on the unit base 31 of the component mounting device 1 transports the carrier tape 24, which has been positioned at the second position Pn2, a distance L2 as shown in FIG. 18, and positions the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 at the third position Pn3.
 次に、図19及び図20を参照して、16mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24について説明する。図19は、16mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24が第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされた状態を示す説明図である。図20は、16mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24が部品取り出し位置Paに位置決めされた状態を示す説明図である。 Next, the carrier tape 24 of the 16 mm pitch pocket 53 will be described with reference to Figures 19 and 20. Figure 19 is an explanatory diagram showing the state in which the carrier tape 24 of the 16 mm pitch pocket 53 is positioned at the second position Pn2. Figure 20 is an explanatory diagram showing the state in which the carrier tape 24 of the 16 mm pitch pocket 53 is positioned at the component removal position Pa.
 図19に示すように、16mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24の場合、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aはポケット53の一部を切断した状態である。第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされたキャリアテープ24は、先頭の部品5が収容されたポケット53の一部が開口部23bを通して露出している。したがって、作業者は部品5の一部を目視で確認することができる。この状態で、部品供給装置23を移動しても先頭の部品5の一部がテープカバー81で覆われているので、ポケット53から外部へこぼれ落ちることを低減することができる。 As shown in FIG. 19, in the case of a carrier tape 24 with pockets 53 at a 16 mm pitch, the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 has a portion of the pocket 53 cut off. When the carrier tape 24 is positioned at the second position Pn2, a portion of the pocket 53 containing the leading component 5 is exposed through the opening 23b. Therefore, the worker can visually confirm a portion of the component 5. In this state, even if the component supply device 23 is moved, the leading component 5 is partially covered by the tape cover 81, reducing the possibility of it falling out of the pocket 53.
 部品搭載装置1のユニットベース31に装着された部品供給装置23は、作業者の指示により、図20に示すように、テープ搬送部が第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされたキャリアテープ24を距離L2搬送してキャリアテープ24の先端部24aを第3の位置Pn3に位置決めする。 In response to an instruction from an operator, the component supply device 23 mounted on the unit base 31 of the component mounting device 1 transports the carrier tape 24, which has been positioned at the second position Pn2, a distance L2 as shown in FIG. 20, and positions the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 at the third position Pn3.
 次に、図21及び図22を参照して、20mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24について説明する。図21は、20mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24が第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされた状態を示す説明図である。図22は、20mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24が部品取り出し位置Paに位置決めされた状態を示す説明図である。 Next, the carrier tape 24 of the 20 mm pitch pocket 53 will be described with reference to Figures 21 and 22. Figure 21 is an explanatory diagram showing the state in which the carrier tape 24 of the 20 mm pitch pocket 53 is positioned at the second position Pn2. Figure 22 is an explanatory diagram showing the state in which the carrier tape 24 of the 20 mm pitch pocket 53 is positioned at the component removal position Pa.
 図21に示すように、20mmピッチのポケット53のキャリアテープ24の場合、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aはポケット53とポケット53との間の位置である。第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされたキャリアテープ24は、先頭の部品5が収容されたポケット53の一部が開口部23bを通して露出している。したがって、作業者は部品5の一部を目視で確認することができる。この状態で、部品供給装置23を移動しても先頭の部品5の一部がテープカバー81で覆われているので、ポケット53から外部へこぼれ落ちることを低減することができる。 As shown in FIG. 21, in the case of a carrier tape 24 with pockets 53 at a 20 mm pitch, the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 is located between the pockets 53. When the carrier tape 24 is positioned at the second position Pn2, part of the pocket 53 containing the leading component 5 is exposed through the opening 23b. Therefore, the worker can visually confirm part of the component 5. In this state, even if the component supply device 23 is moved, part of the leading component 5 is covered by the tape cover 81, so it is possible to reduce the component from spilling out of the pocket 53.
 部品搭載装置1のユニットベース31に装着された部品供給装置23は、作業者の指示により、図22に示すように、テープ搬送部61が第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされたキャリアテープ24を距離L2搬送してキャリアテープ24の先端部24aを第3の位置Pn3に位置決めする。 In the component supply device 23 mounted on the unit base 31 of the component mounting device 1, the tape transport unit 61 transports the carrier tape 24 positioned at the second position Pn2 by a distance L2 as shown in FIG. 22, in response to instructions from an operator, and positions the tip end 24a of the carrier tape 24 at the third position Pn3.
 また、ポケット53が形成されたピッチPtが24mmの場合も同様に、キャリアテープ24は、フィーダ作業装置300において第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされ、部品搭載装置1において第3の位置Pn3に位置決めされる。 Similarly, when the pitch Pt at which the pockets 53 are formed is 24 mm, the carrier tape 24 is positioned at the second position Pn2 in the feeder operation device 300 and at the third position Pn3 in the component mounting device 1.
 このように、キャリアテープにおいて、複数のポケット53が形成されたピッチPtが、8mm以上かつ4の倍数の長さであれば、ピッチPtの長さに関係なく、同じ方法で第2の位置Pn2に位置合わせをすることで、部品供給装置23の移動中の部品5の紛失を防止することができる。8mm以上かつ4の倍数の長さのピッチPtは、例えば、8mm、12mm、16mm、20mm、または24mmである。キャリアテープ24の送り孔54のピッチの長さが4mmでは無い場合、ポケット53のピッチPtは、キャリアテープ24の送り孔54のピッチの長さの2倍以上の整数倍の長さでもよい。また、これらのピッチPtの部品取り出し位置Paは、テープ搬送路60において第2の位置Pn2からキャリアテープ24のポケット53のピッチPtの1つ分下流側へ移動した位置である。 In this way, if the pitch Pt at which the multiple pockets 53 are formed on the carrier tape is 8 mm or more and a multiple of 4, the same method can be used to align the pockets 53 to the second position Pn2 regardless of the length of the pitch Pt, thereby preventing the loss of the components 5 during the movement of the component supply device 23. A pitch Pt that is 8 mm or more and a multiple of 4 is, for example, 8 mm, 12 mm, 16 mm, 20 mm, or 24 mm. If the pitch length of the feed holes 54 of the carrier tape 24 is not 4 mm, the pitch Pt of the pockets 53 may be an integer multiple of twice or more the pitch length of the feed holes 54 of the carrier tape 24. In addition, the component removal position Pa for these pitches Pt is a position that is moved downstream from the second position Pn2 by one pitch Pt of the pockets 53 of the carrier tape 24 on the tape transport path 60.
 なお、ポケット53のピッチPtが、8mm、12mm、16mm、20mm、及び24mmのいずれかのキャリアテープ24の場合、キャリアテープ24が幅広であるので、このようなキャリアテープ24を搬送可能な部品供給装置23は、ポケット53のピッチPtが4mmのようなキャリアテープ24を搬送する頻度は少ない。 In addition, when the carrier tape 24 has a pocket 53 pitch Pt of 8 mm, 12 mm, 16 mm, 20 mm, or 24 mm, the carrier tape 24 is wide, so a component supply device 23 capable of transporting such a carrier tape 24 rarely transports a carrier tape 24 with a pocket 53 pitch Pt of 4 mm.
 ポケット53のピッチPtが4mmのキャリアテープ24を搬送する場合、図23に示すように、第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされたキャリアテープ24は、部品5が収容されたポケット53が開口部23bを通じて全て露出しており、作業者は部品5を目視することができる。したがって、部品供給装置23の移動中に部品5がこぼれ落ちる可能性があるので、ポケット53のピッチPtが4mmのキャリアテープ24については、別の対応を取る必要がある。しかしながら、ポケット53のピッチPtが4mmの場合であっても、ピッチPtの長さに関係なく、同じ方法で第2の位置Pn2に位置合わせをすることができるので、ピッチPtの情報が無くてもキャリアテープ24をセッティングすることができる。 When transporting a carrier tape 24 with a pocket 53 pitch Pt of 4 mm, as shown in FIG. 23, the pockets 53 containing the components 5 are fully exposed through the openings 23b of the carrier tape 24 positioned at the second position Pn2, allowing the operator to visually inspect the components 5. Therefore, since there is a possibility that the components 5 may fall out while the component supply device 23 is moving, a different approach must be taken for a carrier tape 24 with a pocket 53 pitch Pt of 4 mm. However, even when the pocket 53 pitch Pt is 4 mm, the pockets 53 can be aligned to the second position Pn2 in the same manner regardless of the length of the pitch Pt, so the carrier tape 24 can be set even without information on the pitch Pt.
 このように、部品取り出し位置Paは、ピッチPtが4mmの場合、第2の位置Pn2であり、ピッチPtが8mm以上の場合、第2の位置Pn2よりもテープ搬送路60の下流側に位置する。部品取り出し位置Paは、キャリアテープ24に形成された複数のポケット53のピッチPtに応じて異なる。また、第2の位置Pn2は、キャリアテープ24に形成された複数のポケット53のピッチPtに関係なく同じ位置である。 In this way, the component removal position Pa is the second position Pn2 when the pitch Pt is 4 mm, and is located downstream of the second position Pn2 on the tape transport path 60 when the pitch Pt is 8 mm or more. The component removal position Pa differs depending on the pitch Pt of the multiple pockets 53 formed on the carrier tape 24. Furthermore, the second position Pn2 is the same position regardless of the pitch Pt of the multiple pockets 53 formed on the carrier tape 24.
 次に、図24を参照して、フィーダ作業装置300における部品供給装置23のキャリアテープ24のセッティングの方法について説明する。図24は、部品供給装置23においてキャリアテープ24のセッティングの流れを示すフローチャートである。 Next, referring to FIG. 24, a method for setting the carrier tape 24 of the component supply device 23 in the feeder work device 300 will be described. FIG. 24 is a flowchart showing the flow of setting the carrier tape 24 in the component supply device 23.
 ステップS1において、作業者は、部品供給装置23のテープ入口23aからキャリアテープ24を挿入する。作業者は、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが第3搬送スプロケット61cのピンに当たるまで、キャリアテープ24をテープ搬送路60内へ送り続ける。 In step S1, the worker inserts the carrier tape 24 from the tape inlet 23a of the component supply device 23. The worker continues to feed the carrier tape 24 into the tape transport path 60 until the leading end 24a of the carrier tape 24 hits the pin of the third transport sprocket 61c.
 作業者は、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが第3搬送スプロケット61cのピンに当たったことを感じると、ステップS2において、操作パネル18のスイッチ33cを押下する。これにより、テープ搬送部61が駆動して第3搬送スプロケット61cが回転し始める。 When the operator feels that the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 has hit the pin of the third transport sprocket 61c, in step S2, he or she presses the switch 33c on the operation panel 18. This drives the tape transport unit 61 and the third transport sprocket 61c begins to rotate.
 第3搬送スプロケット61cが回転し始めると、ステップS3において、テープ搬送部61の第3搬送スプロケット61cのピンがキャリアテープ24の送り孔54と係合し、第3搬送スプロケット61cの回転と共に第3搬送スプロケット61cがキャリアテープ24をテープ搬送路60に沿って下流側へ搬送する。 When the third transport sprocket 61c starts to rotate, in step S3, the pin of the third transport sprocket 61c of the tape transport section 61 engages with the feed hole 54 of the carrier tape 24, and as the third transport sprocket 61c rotates, the third transport sprocket 61c transports the carrier tape 24 downstream along the tape transport path 60.
 次に、ステップS4において、作業者は目視でキャリアテープ24の先端部24aが、マーク83が示す停止位置である第2の位置Pn2にキャリアテープ24の先端部24aを合わせる。作業者は、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aを第2の位置Pn2に位置決めした際に、先頭の部品5を目視で見ることができるか確認する。先頭の部品5を確認できた場合、フィーダ作業装置300における部品供給装置23のキャリアテープ24のセッティングを終了する。 Next, in step S4, the worker visually aligns the leading end 24a of the carrier tape 24 with the second position Pn2, which is the stopping position indicated by the mark 83. The worker checks whether the leading component 5 can be visually seen when the leading end 24a of the carrier tape 24 is positioned at the second position Pn2. If the leading component 5 can be confirmed, the setting of the carrier tape 24 in the component supplying device 23 in the feeder work device 300 is completed.
 次に、図25を参照して、部品搭載装置1における部品5のピックアップ方法について説明する。図25は、部品搭載装置1においてキャリアテープ24から部品5をピックアップする流れを示すフローチャートである。 Next, a method for picking up components 5 in the component mounting device 1 will be described with reference to FIG. 25. FIG. 25 is a flowchart showing the process for picking up components 5 from the carrier tape 24 in the component mounting device 1.
 作業者は、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされた部品供給装置23をフィーダ作業装置300の作業台302から取り外し、部品搭載装置1のユニットベース31に装着する。 The worker removes the component supply device 23, in which the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 is positioned at the second position Pn2, from the work table 302 of the feeder work device 300, and attaches it to the unit base 31 of the component mounting device 1.
 ステップS31において、ユニットベース31に装着された部品供給装置23のユニット制御部64は、管理装置92の管理記憶部94に記憶されている生産プログラム111を参照して、キャリアテープ24のポケット53のピッチ情報を取得する。なお、本体制御部17のピッチ情報取得部43が管理装置92の管理記憶部94に記憶されている生産プログラム111を参照して、キャリアテープ24のポケット53のピッチ情報を取得し、取得したピッチ情報をユニット制御部64に送信してもよい。 In step S31, the unit control unit 64 of the component supply device 23 mounted on the unit base 31 refers to the production program 111 stored in the management memory unit 94 of the management device 92 to acquire pitch information of the pockets 53 of the carrier tape 24. Note that the pitch information acquisition unit 43 of the main body control unit 17 may refer to the production program 111 stored in the management memory unit 94 of the management device 92 to acquire pitch information of the pockets 53 of the carrier tape 24, and transmit the acquired pitch information to the unit control unit 64.
 ステップS32において、部品供給装置23のユニット制御部64は、取得したピッチ情報を基に、モータ61eを駆動制御する。モータ61eが第2搬送スプロケット61bを回転駆動してキャリアテープ24のポケット53の1ピッチPtの長さ分キャリアテープ24を送り出して第3の位置Pn3に位置決めする。 In step S32, the unit control unit 64 of the component supply device 23 controls the drive of the motor 61e based on the acquired pitch information. The motor 61e drives and rotates the second transport sprocket 61b to feed out the carrier tape 24 by the length of one pitch Pt of the pocket 53 of the carrier tape 24, and positions it at the third position Pn3.
 ステップS33において、部品搭載装置1の部品搭載制御部41は、同様に、管理装置92の管理記憶部94に記憶されている生産プログラム111を参照して、キャリアテープ24のポケット53のピッチ情報を取得する。部品搭載制御部41は、取得したピッチ情報を基に、ノズル13aが部品5を吸着する位置である部品取り出し位置Paをセットする。 In step S33, the component mounting control unit 41 of the component mounting device 1 similarly references the production program 111 stored in the management memory unit 94 of the management device 92 to acquire pitch information of the pockets 53 of the carrier tape 24. Based on the acquired pitch information, the component mounting control unit 41 sets the component removal position Pa, which is the position where the nozzle 13a picks up the component 5.
 ステップS34において、部品搭載制御部41がヘッド移動機構14を駆動制御し、ノズル13aが、部品取り出し位置Pa位置決めされた部品5を吸着して、基板4に搭載し、基板4の生産が開始される。 In step S34, the component mounting control unit 41 drives and controls the head movement mechanism 14, and the nozzle 13a picks up the component 5 positioned at the component removal position Pa and mounts it on the board 4, and production of the board 4 begins.
 このように、本実施の形態の部品供給装置23は、キャリアテープ24に一定のピッチPtで形成された複数のポケット53に収容された部品5を供給する。部品供給装置23は、キャリアテープ24をテープ搬送路60に沿って搬送するテープ搬送部61と、部品5の取り出し用の開口部23bが設けられ、キャリアテープ24の上面の一部を押さえるテープカバー81と、テープ搬送部61がキャリアテープ24を搬送する搬送量を操作指示する操作パネル18と、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aの停止位置である第2の位置Pn2を示すマーク83と、を備える。 In this way, the component supply device 23 of this embodiment supplies the components 5 stored in the multiple pockets 53 formed at a constant pitch Pt on the carrier tape 24. The component supply device 23 includes a tape transport unit 61 that transports the carrier tape 24 along the tape transport path 60, a tape cover 81 that has an opening 23b for removing the components 5 and presses down a portion of the upper surface of the carrier tape 24, an operation panel 18 that operates and instructs the amount of transport of the carrier tape 24 by the tape transport unit 61, and a mark 83 that indicates the second position Pn2, which is the stopping position of the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24.
 キャリアテープ24のポケットのピッチ情報が取得できない場合においても、ユーザはマーク83の示す位置に、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが停止するように操作パネル18によりキャリアテープ24の搬送量を操作指示することで、キャリアテープ24を停止位置である第2の位置Pn2に頭出しを行うことができる。したがって、キャリアテープ24を第2の位置Pn2に位置決めするのにキャリアテープ24のポケット53のピッチPt情報を必要としないので、管理装置92と通信不可能な作業台302上においてオフライン状態で作業できるので、作業性を向上させることができる。 Even if the pitch information of the pockets of the carrier tape 24 cannot be obtained, the user can operate the operation panel 18 to instruct the amount of transport of the carrier tape 24 so that the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 stops at the position indicated by the mark 83, thereby allowing the carrier tape 24 to be aligned to the second position Pn2, which is the stop position. Therefore, since the pitch Pt information of the pockets 53 of the carrier tape 24 is not required to position the carrier tape 24 at the second position Pn2, work can be done offline on the workbench 302 that cannot communicate with the management device 92, improving workability.
 また、第2の位置Pn2で停止したキャリアテープ24のポケット53に収容された、先頭の部品5の少なくとも一部がテープカバー81に覆われている。これにより、第2の位置Pn2に位置決めされたキャリアテープ24から部品5がこぼれ落ちるのを低減することができる。 Furthermore, at least a portion of the leading component 5 housed in the pocket 53 of the carrier tape 24 stopped at the second position Pn2 is covered by the tape cover 81. This makes it possible to reduce the component 5 from falling off the carrier tape 24 positioned at the second position Pn2.
 また、キャリアテープ24は、ポケット53が形成されたベーステープ51と、ポケット53に収容された部品5を覆うトップテープ52と、を有する。第2の位置Pn2において、キャリアテープ24は、ポケット53に収容された部品5を覆っていたトップテープ52が剥がされた状態であり、ポケット53に収容された先頭の部品5の少なくとも一部が開口部23bを通じて露出している。これにより、キャリアテープ24の先端部24aが第2の位置Pn2に位置する状態で、作業者は先頭の部品5の少なくとも一部を目視で確認することができる。 The carrier tape 24 also has a base tape 51 in which a pocket 53 is formed, and a top tape 52 that covers the component 5 housed in the pocket 53. At the second position Pn2, the carrier tape 24 is in a state in which the top tape 52 that covered the component 5 housed in the pocket 53 has been peeled off, and at least a portion of the leading component 5 housed in the pocket 53 is exposed through the opening 23b. This allows the worker to visually check at least a portion of the leading component 5 when the tip 24a of the carrier tape 24 is located at the second position Pn2.
