Abstract

The present invention provides a conveying device and a conveying method of an electronic component, by which the appearances of the electronic components accommodated in a plurality accommodating parts of a tray can be detected reliably without a complicated device. A path formed at the lower surface side of the tray 7 is configured in a way that a protrusion part (8) is meshed with a continuous guiding groove (4) possessed by a guiding clamp (5) which is arranged at a fixed position relative to a fixed camera (2). The mobile tray (7) defines the path in a way that the protrusion part (8)is moved along the guiding groove (4), so that the electronic components accommodated in the plurality of accommodating parts (6) are provided in a shooting area of the fixed camera orderly, and the appearances of the module components are detected by observing the images of the module components (1) shot by the fixed camera (2). In addition, the plurality of module components exists in the shooting area of the fixed camera, the images of the module components are displayed, so that the appearances of the module components are detected.

Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to a conveying device and method for electronic components, and more specifically, to a device and method for sequentially conveying electronic components respectively stored in a plurality of storage portions of a tray. Background technique

[0002] In recent years, various electronic devices are widely used in mobile communication terminals and the like. For electronic components such as module components, shielding cases, and coaxial cables mounted in such electronic equipment, in order to prevent defects and failures of electronic equipment, it is necessary to perform inspections and eliminate defective products in advance. In addition, there is an appearance inspection for these electronic components to check whether the appearance is good.

[0003] As an appearance inspection method for electronic components, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a pallet component inspection method in which a camera is used to r...
