[0081] The retracting position JP is defined at the front of the conveying surface 220. The returning position TP is defined at the rear of the conveying surface 220. Figures 5 to 10 As shown by arrow Y2, the second conveyor belt 22 conveys the component C supplied to the retreat position JP to the rear. The second conveyor belt 22 conveys the component C from the retreat position JP to the return position TP. The component C conveyed to the return position TP is supplied to the input position IP.
[0082] The conveying surface 220 of the second conveying belt 22 is inclined upward toward the rear (the second direction).
[0083] The return guides 23 and 33 guide the components C conveyed by the second conveyor belt 22 to the insertion position IP. The return guides 23 and 33 guide the components C so that the components C conveyed to the return position TP by the second conveyor belt 22 are inserted into the insertion position IP adjacent to the left of the return position TP. The return guide 33 is arranged behind the return guide 23.
[0084] The return guide portion 23 is supported by at least a portion of the housing 11. In the embodiment, the base end portion of the return guide portion 23 is supported by the right plate portion 13. The guide surface of the return guide portion 23 is inclined to the left toward the rear. At least a portion of the return guide portion 23 is arranged above the second conveyor belt 22. The front end portion of the return guide portion 23 is arranged above the first conveyor belt 21. The return guide portion 23 is separated from the conveying surface 220 of the second conveyor belt 22. The return guide portion 23 is separated from the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21. The return position TP includes a position where the conveying surface 220 of the second conveyor belt 22 and the return guide portion 23 are opposite.
[0085] The return guide portion 33 is supported by at least a portion of the housing 11. In the embodiment, the base end portion of the return guide portion 33 is supported by the left plate portion 12, and the front end portion of the return guide portion 33 is supported by the right plate portion 13. The guide surface of the return guide portion 33 is inclined to the left toward the rear. At least a portion of the return guide portion 33 is arranged above the second conveyor belt 22. The front end portion of the return guide portion 33 is arranged above the first conveyor belt 21. The return guide portion 33 is in contact with the conveying surface 220 of the second conveyor belt 22. The return guide portion 33 is separated from the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21. The return position TP includes a position where the conveying surface 220 of the second conveyor belt 22 and the return guide portion 33 are opposite.
[0086] In the embodiment, the height of the conveying surface 220 of the second conveyor belt 22 at the return position TP is higher than the height of the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 at the insertion position IP. The component C conveyed from the retracting position JP to the return position TP is guided to the left by the return guides 23 and 33, thereby falling from the return position TP to the insertion position IP. The return guides 23 and 33 cause the component C conveyed to the return position TP by the second conveyor belt 22 to fall to the insertion position IP of the first conveyor belt 21.
[0087] The plurality of components C supplied to the retreat position JP are sometimes conveyed to the return position TP by the second conveyor belt 22 in a state of being overlapped in the vertical direction. The return guide 23 causes the upper component C among the components C in a state of being overlapped in the vertical direction to fall to the input position IP of the first conveyor belt 21. The return guide 33 causes the component C that has passed under the return guide 23 among the components C in a state of being overlapped in the vertical direction to fall to the input position IP of the first conveyor belt 21.
[0088] The components C stacked in the vertical direction are dropped to the input position IP of the first conveyor belt 21 at different timings by the return guides 23 and 33. Thus, even if a large number of components C are conveyed to the return position TP, the components C are prevented from being retained at the return position TP. Therefore, the components C are smoothly conveyed.
[0089] Furthermore, for example, a blower may function as the return guides 23 , 33 .
[0090] The rotation shaft of the motor 24 , the rotation shaft of the first gear 25 , the rotation shaft of the second gear 26 , the rotation shaft of the drive pulley 27 , the rotation shaft of the secondary driven pulley 28 , and the rotation shafts of the idler pulleys 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 each extend in the left-right direction.
[0091] Fig.11 FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the vicinity of the motor 24 according to the embodiment. Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown in each case, the motor 24 is supported by the support plate portion 18. The motor 24 generates a rotational force for driving each of the first conveyor belt 21 and the second conveyor belt 22. The motor 24 is a stepping motor.
[0092] The first gear 25 is connected to the rotor shaft of the motor 24. When the rotor shaft of the motor 24 rotates, the first gear 25 rotates. The motor 24 can rotate the first gear 25 in the forward and reverse directions.
[0093] The second gear 26 is arranged behind the first gear 25. The second gear 26 meshes with the first gear 25. The first gear 25 rotates, thereby the second gear 26 rotates. The rotation direction of the first gear 25 and the rotation direction of the second gear 26 are different. For example, when the first gear 25 rotates forward, the second gear 26 rotates reversely. When the first gear 25 rotates reversely, the second gear 26 rotates forward.
[0094] The driving pulley 27 is arranged on the left side of the second gear 26. The driving pulley 27 is connected to the second gear 26. The rotation axis of the driving pulley 27 is consistent with the rotation axis of the second gear 26. When the second gear 26 rotates, the driving pulley 27 rotates together with the second gear 26. That is, the rotation direction of the driving pulley 27 is the same as the rotation direction of the second gear 26. For example, when the second gear 26 rotates forward, the driving pulley 27 also rotates forward. When the second gear 26 rotates reversely, the driving pulley 27 also rotates reversely.
[0095] The first conveyor belt 21 is supported by a driving pulley 27. The inner surface of the first conveyor belt 21 is in contact with the surface of the driving pulley 27. The first conveyor belt 21 is driven by the rotation of the driving pulley 27.
[0096] The second-stage driven pulley 28 is arranged behind the second gear 26 and the driving pulley 27. The second-stage driven pulley 28 has a large diameter portion 281 and a small diameter portion 282. The diameter of the large diameter portion 281 is larger than the diameter of the small diameter portion 282. The large diameter portion 281 is arranged on the left side of the small diameter portion 282. The large diameter portion 281 and the small diameter portion 282 are integrated. The rotation axis of the large diameter portion 281 and the rotation axis of the small diameter portion 282 are consistent. When the large diameter portion 281 rotates, the small diameter portion 282 rotates together with the large diameter portion 281. That is, the rotation direction of the large diameter portion 281 and the rotation direction of the small diameter portion 282 are the same. For example, when the large diameter portion 281 rotates forward, the small diameter portion 282 also rotates forward. When the large diameter portion 281 rotates reversely, the small diameter portion 282 also rotates reversely.
[0097] The first conveyor belt 21 is supported by the large diameter portion 281. The outer surface of the first conveyor belt 21 is in contact with the surface of the large diameter portion 281. The driving pulley 27 rotates to drive the first conveyor belt 21, thereby rotating the large diameter portion 281.
[0098] The second conveyor belt 22 is supported by the small diameter portion 282. The inner surface of the second conveyor belt 22 is in contact with the surface of the small diameter portion 282. The large diameter portion 281 rotates, and the small diameter portion 282 rotates, whereby the second conveyor belt 22 is driven.
[0099] The surface of the large diameter portion 281 contacts the outer surface of the first conveyor belt 21. The surface of the small diameter portion 282 contacts the inner surface of the second conveyor belt 22. Therefore, the first conveyor belt 21 is driven to move the conveying surface 210 forward, and when the large diameter portion 281 rotates, the small diameter portion 282 rotates together with the large diameter portion 281, and the second conveyor belt 22 is driven to move the conveying surface 220 backward.
[0100] As described above, in the embodiment, the first conveyor belt 21 and the second conveyor belt 22 are driven by the rotational force generated by the one motor 24. The first conveyor belt 21 and the second conveyor belt 22 are each supported by the secondary driven pulley 28. The second conveyor belt 22 is driven synchronously with the first conveyor belt 21. In addition, the first conveyor belt 21 and the second conveyor belt 22 are driven by the rotational force generated by the one motor 24 so that the conveying direction of the first conveyor belt 21 and the conveying direction of the second conveyor belt 22 are opposite.
[0101] The conveying speed of the first conveyor belt 21 is higher than the conveying speed of the second conveyor belt 22. The first conveyor belt 21 is supported by the large diameter portion 281. The second conveyor belt 22 is supported by the small diameter portion 282. Therefore, the large diameter portion 281 and the small diameter portion 282 of the secondary driven pulley 28 rotate together, whereby the conveying speed of the first conveyor belt 21 is higher than the conveying speed of the second conveyor belt 22.
[0102] The conveying speed of the first conveyor belt 21 is higher than that of the second conveyor belt 22, so the component C can be smoothly transferred from the second conveyor belt 22 to the first conveyor belt 21. In addition, after the component C is supplied from the second conveyor belt 22 to the first conveyor belt 21, it is conveyed at a high speed, so that the component C is suppressed from being retained on the first conveyor belt 21. Therefore, the component C is smoothly conveyed.
[0103] In the embodiment, the second gear 26 and the driving pulley 27 are rotatably supported by the bracket 35 . The bracket 35 is supported by the support plate 18 . The secondary driven pulley 28 is rotatably supported by the bracket 36 . The bracket 36 is supported by the support plate 18 .
[0104] A plurality of idle pulleys 29 are provided. The plurality of idle pulleys 29 movably support the first conveyor belt 21. A plurality of idle pulleys 30 are provided. The plurality of idle pulleys 30 are in contact with the first conveyor belt 21 to adjust the tension of the first conveyor belt 21.
[0105] A plurality of idle pulleys 31 are provided. The plurality of idle pulleys 31 movably support the second conveyor belt 22. A plurality of idle pulleys 32 are provided. The plurality of idle pulleys 32 are in contact with the second conveyor belt 22 to adjust the tension of the second conveyor belt 22.
[0106] The simple component sorting section 34 adjusts the number of components C supplied from the input position IP to the supply position SP. The simple component sorting section 34 is arranged between the input position IP and the supply position SP. The simple component sorting section 34 is supported by at least a portion of the housing 11. In an embodiment, the base end portion of the simple component sorting section 34 is supported by the left plate portion 12. The sorting surface of the simple component sorting section 34 faces forward and is inclined to the right. The simple component sorting section 34 is arranged above the first conveyor belt 21. In an embodiment, the simple component sorting section 34 is arranged to be opposite to a portion of the conveying surface 210 in the inclined portion 211. The simple component sorting section 34 and the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 are separated.
[0107] A plurality of components C put into the insertion position IP are sometimes conveyed to the supply position SP by the first conveyor belt 21 in a state of being overlapped in the vertical direction. The simple component sorting unit 34 restricts the conveyance of the upper components C among the components C that are overlapped in the vertical direction. The lower components C among the components C that are overlapped in the vertical direction pass under the simple component sorting unit 34. That is, a part of the components C among the components C that are overlapped in the vertical direction abut against the sorting surface of the simple component sorting unit 34, and the conveyance relative to the supply position SP is suppressed. A part of the components C among the components C that are overlapped in the vertical direction pass between the simple component sorting unit 34 and the first conveyor belt 21. Thus, the number of components C supplied from the insertion position IP to the supply position SP is adjusted. In addition, the components C are suppressed from falling to the outside of the component supply device 100.
[0108] In addition, for example, a blower may function as the simplified component sorting unit 34 .

[0111] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9 , Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, the vibration conveying device 40 has a vibrating body 41 , a conveying member 42 , a guide member 43 and a stopper member 44 .
[0112] The vibrator 41 vibrates the conveying member 42. The vibrator 41 supports the conveying member 42. The vibrator 41 is arranged below the conveying member 42. The vibrator 41 is arranged above the support plate 18. The vibrator 41 is supported by the support plate 18. The vibrator 41 includes, for example, a piezoelectric element, and vibrates the conveying surface 420 of the conveying member 42. The conveying surface 420 is slightly vibrated by the vibrator 41 to convey the component C in contact with the conveying surface 420 forward.
[0113] The transport member 42 is vibrated by the vibrator 41. The transport member 42 vibrates the transport surface 420 with which the component C contacts, transports the component C from the first transport belt 21 forward (in the first direction), and supplies the component C to the pickup position PP of the mounting head 5.
[0114] The conveying member 42 is arranged in front of the first conveying belt 21. Fig.12 As shown, at the boundary between the first conveyor belt 21 and the conveying member 42, the height of the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 is higher than the height of the conveying surface 420 of the conveying member 42. The boundary between the first conveyor belt 21 and the conveying member 42 includes the boundary between the front end portion of the conveying surface 210 and the rear end portion of the conveying surface 420. The boundary between the first conveyor belt 21 and the conveying member 42 includes the boundary between the supply position SP and the delivery position RP.
[0115] The height of the rotation axis AX of the idler pulley 29 adjacent to the conveying member 42 is higher than the height of the conveying surface 420 of the conveying member 42. The idler pulley 29 adjacent to the conveying member 42 refers to the idler pulley 29 arranged at the position closest to the rear end of the conveying member 42 among the plurality of idler pulleys 29. In the vertical direction, the conveying surface 420 of the conveying member 42 adjacent to the first conveyor belt 21 is arranged between the rotation axis AX of the idler pulley 29 adjacent to the conveying member 42 and the lower end 29B of the idler pulley 29. The component C supplied to the supply position SP by the first conveyor belt 21 falls from the supply position SP to the delivery position RP.
[0116] The conveying member 42 includes a first conveying member 42A, a second conveying member 42B, a third conveying member 42C, and a fourth conveying member 42D. The first conveying member 42A is arranged in front of the first conveyor belt 21. The component C from the first conveyor belt 21 is supplied to the first conveying member 42A. At least a portion of the second conveying member 42B is arranged in front of the first conveying member 42A. The component C that has passed through the first conveying member 42A is supplied to the second conveying member 42B. At least a portion of the third conveying member 42C is arranged in front of the second conveying member 42B. The component C that has passed through the second conveying member 42B is supplied to the third conveying member 42C. At least a portion of the fourth conveying member 42D is arranged in front of the third conveying member 42C. The component C that has passed through the third conveying member 42C is supplied to the fourth conveying member 42D. The handover position RP is defined at the rear end portion of the first conveying member 42A. The pickup position PP is defined at the front end portion of the fourth conveying member 42D. The first conveying member 42A, the second conveying member 42B, the third conveying member 42C, and the fourth conveying member 42D each have a conveying surface 420 in contact with the member C. The conveying surface 420 of the second conveying member 42B is arranged below the conveying surface 420 of the first conveying member 42A. The conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C is arranged below the conveying surface 420 of the second conveying member 42B. The conveying surface 420 of the fourth conveying member 42D is arranged below the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C.
[0117] The guide member 43 guides the component C conveyed to the first conveying member 42A forward. The guide member 43 is arranged on the left side of the conveying surface 420 of the first conveying member 42A. At least a part of the guide member 43 is arranged rearward compared to the first sorting section 60. The guide surface of the guide member 43 is inclined toward the front and toward the right. The guide member 43 guides the component C supplied to the transfer position RP to the first sorting section 60.
[0118] The stopper member 44 is arranged in front of the pickup position PP. The component C transported to the pickup position PP by the fourth transport member 42D abuts against the stopper member 44 and is thereby positioned at the pickup position PP. The mounting head 5 holds the component C positioned at the pickup position PP by the stopper member 44 using the suction nozzle 4.
[0119] The stopper 44 is provided with a vacuum hole. The component C conveyed to the pickup position PP is sucked to the stopper 44 through the vacuum hole and stops at the pickup position PP. When the suction nozzle 4 of the mounting head 5 holds the component C, the suction through the vacuum hole is released.
[0120] <1st Sorting Section>
[0121] The first sorting section 60 is arranged between the handover position RP and the pickup position PP. The first sorting section 60 is vibrated by the vibrator 41. The first sorting section 60 has a partition section 61 arranged above the first conveying member 42A. The partition section 61 is fixed to at least a portion of the housing 11. In the embodiment, the base end portion of the partition section 61 is supported by the left plate portion 12. The partition surface of the partition section 61 faces forward and is inclined to the right.
[0122] The first sorting unit 60 allows only the components C in the first posture to pass through one by one. In the embodiment, the first posture of the components C is a posture in which the dimensions of the components C in the vertical direction are the smallest. The first posture of the components C is a posture in which the conveying surface 420 of the first conveying member 42A is in contact with the second side surface Dd of the body D. The partition portion 61 is separated upward by a predetermined amount from the conveying surface 420 of the first conveying member 42A so that only the components C in the first posture pass through.
[0123] Fig.15 Schematic diagram for explaining the first sorting unit 60 according to the embodiment. Fig.15 As shown in (A), in the first posture where the conveying surface 420 of the first conveying member 42A is in contact with the second side surface Dd of the main body D, the component C can pass under the partition portion 61.
[0124] like Fig.15 As shown in FIG. 5B , in a state where the conveying surface 420 of the first conveying member 42A is in contact with the first side surface Dc of the main body D, the main body D is blocked by the partition portion 61 , and the component C cannot pass under the partition portion 61 .
[0125] In addition, if Fig.15 As shown in FIG. 5C , in a state where the conveying surface 420 of the first conveying member 42A is in contact with the upper surface Da of the main body D, the lead wire E is blocked by the partition portion 61 , and the component C cannot pass under the partition portion 61 .
[0126] In addition, if Fig.15 As shown in FIG. 5D , when the components C are conveyed in an overlapping state even though the components C are in the first posture, the upper component C is blocked by the partition 61 and cannot pass under the partition 61 .
[0127] As described above, the first sorting section 60 allows only the components C in the first posture to pass through one by one. The components C blocked by the partition section 61 fall from the first sorting section 60 to the second conveyor belt 22 .
[0128] The first sorting unit 60 causes the component C that is not in the first posture to fall from the first sorting unit 60 to the retreat position JP of the second conveyor belt 22. In the front-back direction, the position of the first sorting unit 60 is equal to the position of at least a portion of the second conveyor belt 22. The height of the conveying surface 220 of the second conveyor belt 22 at the retreat position JP is lower than the height of the conveying surface 420 of the first conveying member 42A. The first sorting unit 60 causes the component C that is not in the first posture to fall to the retreat position JP of the second conveyor belt 22.
[0129] The component C dropped to the retreat position JP of the second conveyor belt 22 is conveyed to the return position TP by the second conveyor belt 22 , and then returned to the input position IP by the return guides 23 and 33 .
[0130] The position of the partition plate 61 in the vertical direction is adjustable. The distance between the partition plate 61 and the conveying surface 420 of the first conveying member 42A is adjusted based on the outer shape and size of the components C so that only the components C in the first posture pass through.
[0131] <Second Sorting Section>
[0132] The second sorting section 70 is arranged between the first sorting section 60 and the pickup position PP. The second sorting section 70 is vibrated by the vibrator 41. The second sorting section 70 has a guide section 71 arranged on the left side of the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C. The third conveying member 42C has a conveying surface 420 and an inclined surface 72. The inclined surface 72 of the third conveying member 42C is arranged on the right side of the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C. The inclined surface 72 is arranged below the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C. The inclined surface 72 is inclined downward toward the right.
[0133] The component C having passed through the first sorting unit 60 is transported to the second transport member 42B and then transported to the third transport member 42C of the second sorting unit 70. The component C having passed through the second transport member 42B is supplied to the third transport member 42C.
[0134] The guide portion 71 guides the component C supplied from the second transport member 42B and transported to the third transport member 42C forward. The guide portion 71 is disposed on the left side of the transport surface 420 of the third transport member 42C.
[0135] In the left-right direction, the size of the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C is smaller than the size of the conveying surface 420 of the first conveying member 42A and the size of the conveying surface 420 of the second conveying member 42B.
[0136] The second sorting unit 70 allows only the components C in the first posture and the second posture to pass through. In the embodiment, the second posture of the component C is a posture in which the lead E protrudes from the body D in a specified direction. In the embodiment, the second posture of the component C is a posture in which the lead E protrudes to the right from the body D. The left-right dimension of the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C is determined so that only the components C in the second posture pass through.
[0137] Fig.16 Schematic diagram for explaining the second sorting unit 70 involved in the embodiment. Fig.16 As shown in (A), in the second posture where the upper surface Da of the main body D faces the guide portion 71 and the lead wire E protrudes rightward from the main body D, the component C can pass through the third conveying member 42C.
[0138] like Fig.16 As shown in (B), when the lead E protrudes forward or backward from the main body D, the component C cannot pass through the third conveying member 42C. That is, when the lead E protrudes forward or backward from the main body D, the left-right dimension of the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C is sufficiently smaller than the left-right dimension of the main body D. Fig.16 The contact area between the main body D and the conveying surface 420 in the state shown in (B) is smaller than the contact area between the main body D and the conveying surface 420 when the component C is in the second posture. When the contact area between the main body D and the conveying surface 420 is small, the component C falls to the right from the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying component 42C due to the effect of gravity.
[0139] In addition, if Fig.16 As shown in (C), when the lead E protrudes to the left from the main body D, the component C cannot pass through the third conveying member 42C. That is, when the lead E protrudes to the left from the main body D, the contact area between the main body D and the conveying surface 420 is also smaller than the contact area between the main body D and the conveying surface 420 when the component C is in the second posture. When the contact area between the main body D and the conveying surface 420 is small, the component C falls to the right from the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C due to the effect of gravity.
[0140] As described above, the second sorting section 70 allows only the components C in the second posture to pass through. The components C that cannot pass through the third conveying member 42C fall from the second sorting section 70. That is, the second sorting section 70 allows the components C that are not in the second posture to fall from the second sorting section 70.
[0141] In the embodiment, the second sorting unit 70 causes the component C that is not in the second posture to fall from the second sorting unit 70 to the retreat position JP of the second conveyor belt 22. In the front-back direction, the position of the second sorting unit 70 is equal to the position of at least a portion of the second conveyor belt 22. The second sorting unit 70 causes the component C that is not in the second posture to fall to the retreat position JP of the second conveyor belt 22. In the embodiment, the component C that falls to the right from the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C falls to the retreat position JP of the second conveyor belt 22 via the inclined surface 72.
[0142] The component C dropped to the retreat position JP of the second conveyor belt 22 is conveyed to the return position TP by the second conveyor belt 22 , and then returned to the input position IP by the return guides 23 and 33 .
[0143] The left-right dimension of the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C can be adjusted. The left-right dimension of the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C can be adjusted, for example, by adjusting the position of the left-right guide portion 71. The left-right dimension of the conveying surface 420 of the third conveying member 42C is adjusted based on the outer shape and size of the component C so that only the component C in the second posture passes through.
[0144] <Direction Setting Section>
[0145] The direction setting unit 80 is disposed between the second sorting unit 70 and the pickup position PP. The direction setting unit 80 adjusts the component C in the second posture after passing through the second sorting unit 70 to the third posture.
[0146] The direction setting section 80 includes: a guide section 81 disposed on the right side of the conveying surface 420 of the fourth conveying member 42D; a guide section 82 disposed on the left side of the conveying surface 420 of the fourth conveying member 42D; a guide section 83 disposed in front of the guide section 81; a guide section 84 disposed in front of the guide section 83; a guide section 85 disposed in front of the guide section 82; and a posture adjustment section 86 supported by the guide section 85. By driving the vibrator 41, the fourth conveying member 42D, the guide section 81, the guide section 82, the guide section 83, the guide section 84, the guide section 85, and the posture adjustment section 86 are vibrated.
[0147] The guide portion 81 and the guide portion 82 each guide the component C that has passed through the second sorting portion 70 forward. The guide portion 81 and the guide portion 82 face each other. The guide portion 81 and the guide portion 82 are parallel to each other.
[0148] The guide portion 83, the guide portion 84, and the guide portion 85 each guide the component C that has passed between the guide portion 81 and the guide portion 82 forward. The guide portion 85 is opposite to the guide portion 83 and the guide portion 84. The guide portion 83 is inclined so as to approach the guide portion 85 toward the front. The guide portion 84 and the guide portion 85 are parallel. In the front-to-back direction, the position of the front end portion of the guide portion 81 and the position of the rear end portion of the guide portion 83 are approximately equal. In the front-to-back direction, the position of the front end portion of the guide portion 83 and the position of the rear end portion of the guide portion 84 are approximately equal. The distance between the guide portion 84 and the guide portion 85 is shorter than the distance between the guide portion 81 and the guide portion 82.
[0149] The posture adjusting portion 86 adjusts the component C in the second posture to a third posture. The third posture is a posture in which the lead wire E protrudes downward from the main body D. The posture adjusting portion 86 is fixed to the guide portion 85. The posture adjusting portion 86 is inclined upward toward the front.
[0150] Fig.17 It is a schematic diagram for explaining the direction setting portion 80 involved in the embodiment. Component C from the second sorting portion 70 passes between the guide portion 81 and the guide portion 82 while maintaining the second posture. The main body D of component C that has passed between the guide portion 81 and the guide portion 82 contacts the posture adjustment portion 86. If the main body D moves forward while contacting the posture adjustment portion 86, the main body D gradually rises. In addition, while the main body D is in contact with the posture adjustment portion 86 and moves forward, the front end of the lead E is guided by the guide portion 83. While the main body D is guided by the posture adjustment portion 86 and the lead E is guided by the guide portion 83, component C moves forward, whereby the posture of component C changes from the second posture to the third posture. Component C adjusted to the third posture moves between the guide portion 84 and the guide portion 85 while maintaining the third posture, and reaches the picking position PP. As a result, Fig.17 As shown in FIG. 1 , the component C in the third posture is arranged at the pickup position PP. The mounting head 5 can hold the upper surface Da of the main body D by the suction nozzle 4 at the pickup position PP.

In a state where the hook 95 is inserted into the recess 96, the screw 93 is coupled to the screw hole 94, whereby the cover 97 is fixed to the housing 11 so as to close the opening 90. The coupling between the screw 93 and the screw hole 94 is released, and the hook 95 is detached from the recess 96, whereby the cover 97 is removed from the housing 11 to open the opening 90.
[0154] As described above, the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 includes an inclined surface 211 that is inclined upward from the input position IP toward the front. The opening 90 is provided behind the inclined surface 211. In the embodiment, the opening 90 is provided in the rear plate 15. When the component C present in the input position IP is discharged to the outside of the housing 11, the opening 90 is opened.

As described above, in the embodiment, the motor 24 includes a stepping motor. The state of the motor 24 includes the detuning of the stepping motor. The detuning of the stepping motor is caused by an overload acting on the stepping motor or a sudden change in the rotation speed of the stepping motor, and refers to a state in which the pulse signal input to the stepping motor and the rotation of the stepping motor lose synchronization. For example, in the case where the component C is clamped between the first conveyor belt 21 and the housing 11, or in the case where the component C is clamped between the first conveyor belt 21 and the conveying component 42, an overload is applied to the motor 24 via the first conveyor belt 21, and the possibility of the motor 24 being detuned becomes high. Similarly, in the case where the component C is clamped between the second conveyor belt 22 and the housing 11, an overload is applied to the motor 24 via the second conveyor belt 22, and the possibility of the motor 24 being detuned becomes high. In the embodiment, as Figure 7 , Figure 8 And such as Fig. 9 As shown, the rotation sensor 120 is disposed on the secondary driven pulley 28 .
[0162] Fig.21 1 is a left side view showing the rotation sensor 120 according to the embodiment. The rotation sensor 120 is disposed on the secondary driven pulley 28. The rotation sensor 120 detects the rotation state of the secondary driven pulley 28, thereby detecting the state of the motor 24.
[0163] As reference Fig.11 As described in the above description, the secondary driven pulley 28 supports the first conveyor belt 21 and the second conveyor belt 22. When an overload is applied to the first conveyor belt 21 or the second conveyor belt 22, the rotation state of the secondary driven pulley 28 becomes abnormal. The rotation sensor 120 detects the rotation state of the secondary driven pulley 28, thereby being able to appropriately detect the state of the motor 24.
[0164] In the embodiment, the slit plate 121 is fixed to the secondary driven pulley 28. Fig.11As shown, the slit plate 121 is arranged between the large diameter portion 281 and the small diameter portion 282. The slit plate 121 is substantially in the shape of a circular plate. The diameter of the slit plate 121 is larger than the diameter of the large diameter portion 281 and the diameter of the small diameter portion 282. If the secondary driven pulley 28 rotates, the slit plate 121 rotates together with the secondary driven pulley 28. The slit plate 121 has a slit 122. One slit 122 is provided in the slit plate 121.
[0165] The rotation sensor 120 is disposed opposite to at least a portion of the slit plate 121. The rotation sensor 120 is an optical sensor that detects the slit 122. When the motor 24 rotates normally, the slit 122 is detected by the rotation sensor 120 at a fixed period. When the motor 24 is out of step, the slit 122 is detected by the rotation sensor 120 at irregular periods.
[0166] The component sensor 130 detects the state of the component C in the transport member 42. The state of the component C includes the amount (number) of the component C in the transport member 42 and the presence or absence of the component C in the transport member 42. In the embodiment, the component sensor 130 includes a component full sensor 131 and a component presence sensor 132 arranged at a different position from the component full sensor 131. In the embodiment, the component full sensor 131 is arranged behind the component presence sensor 132.
[0167] like Fig.13 As shown in the figure, the component full sensor 131 is arranged on the left side of the fourth conveying member 42D. The component full sensor 131 detects the amount (number) of the components C in the fourth conveying member 42D. The component full sensor 131 may be an optical sensor that detects the amount of the components C by emitting detection light, or may be a contact sensor that detects the amount of the components C by bringing a probe into contact with the components C. Based on the detection data of the component full sensor 131, it is detected whether the components C are fully loaded.
[0168] like Fig.13 As shown in the figure, the component presence sensor 132 is arranged on the left side of the pick-up position PP. The component presence sensor 132 detects the presence of component C at the pick-up position PP. The component presence sensor 132 can be an optical sensor that detects the presence of component C by emitting detection light, or can be a contact sensor that detects the presence of component C by bringing a probe into contact with component C. Based on the detection data of the component presence sensor 132, the presence of component C at the pick-up position PP is detected. The detection data of the component presence sensor 132 is sent to the component mounting device 1. The component mounting device 1 controls the adsorption timing of component C involving the suction nozzle 4 based on the detection data of the component presence sensor 132.
[0169] The operating device 140 is operated to drive and stop the motor 24. In addition, the operating device 140 is operated to switch the rotation direction of the motor 24. In the embodiment, the operating device 140 includes a push button. For example, the operating device 140 is long pressed to drive or stop the motor 24. For example, the operating device 140 is pressed twice in succession to switch the rotation direction of the motor 24. If the operating device 140 is operated, the rotation direction of the motor 24 is switched so that the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 moves backward. Fig.18 and Fig.19 As shown, the operating device 140 is disposed outside the housing 11 .
[0170] In the embodiment, the operating device 140 functions as the notification device 150. The operating device 140 and the notification device 150 are integrated. The notification device 150 operates when the state of the motor 24 is abnormal. The notification device 150 includes a lamp. The lamp includes a light emitting diode (LED). When the state of the motor 24 is abnormal, the lamp flashes.
[0171] The control device 110 includes a motor control unit 111A, a vibration body control unit 111B, a motor state determination unit 111C, a component state determination unit 111D, and a notification control unit 111E. The processor 111 functions as the motor control unit 111A, the vibration body control unit 111B, the motor state determination unit 111C, the component state determination unit 111D, and the notification control unit 111E.
[0172] The motor control unit 111A outputs a control command for controlling the motor 24. When the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 is moved forward, the motor control unit 111A controls the motor 24 so that the rotor of the motor 24 rotates forward.
[0173] When the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 is moved backward, the motor control unit 111A controls the motor 24 so that the rotor of the motor 24 rotates reversely. When the component C is conveyed from the input position IP to the supply position SP by the first conveyor belt 21, the motor control unit 111A controls the motor 24 so that the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 moves forward.
[0174] When the operator operates the operating device 140 , the motor control unit 111A controls the motor 24 based on an operation signal from the operating device 140 so that the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 moves rearward.
[0175] The vibrating body control unit 111B outputs a control command for controlling the vibrating body 41. When vibrating the conveying member 42, the vibrating body control unit 111B controls the vibrating body 41 so that the vibrating body 41 vibrates.
[0176] The motor state determination unit 111C determines whether the state of the motor 24 is abnormal based on the detection data of the rotation sensor 120. The abnormal state of the motor 24 includes a loss of stepping of the motor 24. The motor control unit 111A stops the motor 24 when the motor state determination unit 111C determines that the state of the motor 24 is abnormal.
[0177] The component state determination unit 111D determines whether the state of the component C is full based on the detection data of the component sensor 130. The case where the component C is full includes the case where the amount (number) of the component C in the conveying member 42 is greater than a predetermined threshold value. The motor control unit 111A controls the motor 24 to stop the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 after the motor 24 rotates to move the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 forward, when the component state determination unit 111D determines that the state of the component C is full. The vibrator control unit 111B controls the vibrator 41 to stop the vibrator 41 after the first conveyor belt 21 stops, when the vibrator 41 vibrates to convey the component C through the conveying member 42, when the component state determination unit 111D determines that the state of the component C is full.
[0178] The component state determination unit 111D determines whether the component C is present in the conveying member 42 based on the detection data of the component sensor 130. When the motor 24 is rotating to move the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 forward, if the component state determination unit 111D determines that the component C is not present, the motor control unit 111A stops the motor 24. When the component state determination unit 111D determines that the component C is not present, the vibrator control unit 111B stops the vibrator 41 at the same timing as the stop of the motor 24, if the vibrator 41 is vibrating to convey the component C via the conveying member 42.
[0179] The notification control unit 111E outputs a control command for controlling the notification device 150. The notification control unit 111E operates the notification device 150 when the motor state determination unit 111C determines that the state of the motor 24 is abnormal. In the embodiment, the notification control unit 111E flashes the lamp of the notification device 150 when the motor state determination unit 111C determines that the state of the motor 24 is abnormal.
[0180] [Parts supply method]
[0181] Fig. 22 1 is a flowchart showing a component supply method according to an embodiment. An operator puts a plurality of scattered components C into the input position IP through the opening 9. After the components C are put into the input position IP, the components C are started to be supplied from the input position IP to the pickup position PP. The motor control unit 111A controls the motor 24 so that the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 moves forward (step SA1).
[0182] The first conveyor belt 21 is driven, whereby the component C at the input position IP is conveyed to the supply position SP. The component C conveyed to the supply position SP is supplied to the delivery position RP of the conveying member 42.
[0183] The vibrator control unit 111B controls the vibrator 41 so that the conveying member 42 vibrates (step SA2 ).
[0184] The conveying part 42 vibrates, and the component C supplied to the handover position RP is conveyed to the first sorting part 60. The first sorting part 60 allows only the components C in the first posture to pass through one by one. The first sorting part 60 causes the components C that are not in the first posture to fall to the return position JP of the second conveyor belt 22. The components C that have passed through the first sorting part 60 are conveyed to the second sorting part 70. The second sorting part 70 allows only the components C in the second posture to pass through. The second sorting part 70 causes the components C that are not in the second posture to fall to the return position JP of the second conveyor belt 22. The components C that have passed through the second sorting part 70 are conveyed to the direction setting part 80. The direction setting part 80 adjusts the components C that have passed through the second sorting part 70 to the third posture. The components C adjusted to the third posture are conveyed to the picking position PP. The component C dropped to the retreat position JP of the second conveyor belt 22 is conveyed to the return position TP by the second conveyor belt 22 , and then returns to the input position IP by the return guides 23 and 33 .
[0185] The rotation sensor 120 detects the state of the motor 24. The rotation sensor 120 detects the state of the motor 24 by detecting the slit plate 121. The component sensor 130 detects the state of the component C in the conveying member 42. The motor state determination unit 111C acquires the detection data of the rotation sensor 120. The component state determination unit 111D acquires the detection data of the component sensor 130 (step SA3).
[0186] The motor state determination unit 111C determines whether the state of the motor 24 is abnormal based on the detection data of the rotation sensor 120 (step SA4 ).
[0187] When it is determined in step SA4 that the state of the motor 24 is not abnormal (step SA4 : No), the component state determination unit 111D determines whether the state of the component C is full based on the detection data of the component sensor 130 (step SA5 ).
[0188] When it is determined in step SA5 that the state of the components C is not full (step SA5 : No), the supply of the components C from the input position IP to the pickup position PP is continued.
[0189] In the embodiment, when it is determined in step SA5 that component C does not exist in the conveying member 42, the motor control unit 111A stops the motor 24. The vibrator control unit 111B stops the vibrator 41 at the same timing as the stop of the motor 24. The notification control unit 111E operates the notification device 150 to notify that component C does not exist.
[0190] When it is determined in step SA4 that the state of the motor 24 is abnormal (step SA4 : Yes), the motor control unit 111A stops the motor 24 (step SA6 ).
[0191] Furthermore, the notification control unit 111E operates the notification device 150 so as to notify that the motor 24 is abnormal (step SA7 ).
[0192] When it is determined in step SA5 that the state of the components C is full (step SA5 : Yes), the motor control unit 111A controls the motor 24 so as to stop after the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 moves backward (step SA8 ).
[0193] In the embodiment, when it is determined that the state of the component C is full, the motor control unit 111A instantly changes the state in which the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 moves forward to the state in which it moves backward. The distance by which the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 moves backward is small. The motor control unit 111A controls the motor 24 so that the conveying surface 210 moves backward by a distance of, for example, 1% to 10% of the circumference of the first conveyor belt 21. The circumference of the first conveyor belt 21 refers to the length of the first conveyor belt 21 which is an endless belt. After the conveying surface 210 moves slightly backward, the motor control unit 111A stops the rotation of the rotor of the motor 24 to stop the driving of the first conveyor belt 21.
[0194] In step SA8 , after the driving of the first conveyor belt 21 is stopped, the vibrator control unit 111B stops the vibrator 41 (step SA9 ).
[0195] [Parts replacement method]
[0196] Fig.23 1 is a flowchart showing a component replacement method according to an embodiment. When replacing component C housed in housing 11, when motor 24 is driven, the operator operates operating device 140 to stop motor 24. When operating device 140 is operated, motor control unit 111A stops motor 24 (step SB1).
[0197] After the motor 24 stops, as shown in FIG. Fig.18 and Fig.19 As described above, the operator removes the cover 97 from the housing 11 to open the opening 90. The opening 90 is opened, and the operator can discharge the component C accommodated in the housing 11 to the outside of the housing 11 through the opening 90. The opening 90 is provided behind the inclined surface 211 of the first conveyor belt 21. The inclined surface 211 is inclined upward from the input position IP toward the front.
[0198] After the opening 90 is opened, the operator operates the operating device 140. The operating device 140 generates an operating signal when the operator operates it. The operating signal of the operating device 140 is output to the control device 110. The motor control unit 111A acquires the operating signal of the operating device 140 (step SB2).
[0199] The motor control unit 111A controls the motor 24 based on the operation signal of the operation device 140 so that the conveying surface 210 of the first conveying belt 21 moves rearward (step SB3 ).
[0200] The conveying surface 210 of the first conveying belt 21 moves rearward, whereby the components C remaining on the first conveying belt 21 are discharged to the outside of the housing 11 through the opening 90 .
[0201] After all the components C accommodated in the housing 11 are ejected, the operator can insert new components C into the insertion position IP. In this way, the components C accommodated in the housing 11 are replaced.
[0202] [Effect]
[0203] As described above, according to the embodiment, the feeder 10 includes: the first conveyor belt 21 that conveys the component C put into the insertion position IP forward; and the conveying member 42 that vibrates by the vibrator 41, thereby conveying the component C from the first conveyor belt 21 forward and supplying it to the pickup position PP of the mounting head 5. The conveying path of many components C is ensured by the first conveyor belt 21 and the conveying member 42. The first conveyor belt 21 and the conveying member 42 are arranged in the front-back direction, thereby suppressing the increase in the size of the feeder 10 in the left-right direction. By suppressing the size of the feeder 10 in the left-right direction (the width of the feeder 10), the number of feeders 10 that can be loaded in the feeder container 8 can be increased. By suppressing the reduction in the number of feeders 10 that can be loaded in the feeder container 8, when supplying scattered components C to the component mounting device 1, the reduction in the types of components C can be suppressed. In addition, the conveying member 42 can convey the components C to the pickup position PP by the same conveying method as the bowl feeder.
[0204] A sorting unit 50 is provided between the input position IP and the pickup position PP so as to allow only the components C in a predetermined posture to pass through. The sorting unit 50 enables the feeder 10 to convey only the components C in a predetermined posture to the pickup position PP.
[0205] The sorting section 50 causes the components C that are not in a prescribed posture to fall to the retraction position JP of the second conveyor belt 22 disposed adjacent to the first conveyor belt 21. The second conveyor belt 22 conveys the components C in the direction opposite to the conveying direction of the first conveyor belt 21. Return guides 23 and 33 are provided to guide the components C conveyed by the second conveyor belt 22 to the insertion position IP. Thus, the components C that have fallen to the retraction position JP are returned to the insertion position IP. In addition, the second conveyor belt 22 is disposed adjacent to the first conveyor belt 21. Thus, the enlargement of the size of the feeder 10 in the front-rear direction is suppressed.
[0206] The height of the conveying surface 220 of the second conveyor belt 22 at the return position TP is higher than the height of the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 at the insertion position IP. The return guides 23 and 33 drop the components C conveyed by the second conveyor belt 22 to the insertion position IP of the first conveyor belt 21. This prevents the components C from being accumulated in the second conveyor belt 22. Therefore, the components C are smoothly supplied from the second conveyor belt 22 to the first conveyor belt 21.
[0207] The conveying speed of the first conveyor belt 21 is higher than the conveying speed of the second conveyor belt 22. Thus, the components C are prevented from being accumulated on the first conveyor belt 21. Therefore, the components C are smoothly supplied from the second conveyor belt 22 to the first conveyor belt 21.
[0208] The predetermined posture of the component C includes a first posture and a second posture. The sorting section 50 includes: a first sorting section 60 that allows only the components C in the first posture to pass through one by one; and a second sorting section 70 that allows only the components C in the second posture to pass through. By providing the first sorting section 60 and the second sorting section 70 as the sorting section 50, it is possible to suppress the complexity of the structures of the first sorting section 60 and the second sorting section 70, and the sorting section 50 can allow the components C in the first posture and the second posture to pass through.
[0209] The component C includes a body D and a lead E protruding from the body D. The first posture of the component C includes a posture in which the dimension of the component C in the vertical direction is the smallest. The second posture of the component C includes a posture in which the lead E protrudes from the body D in a specified direction, that is, to the right. Thus, even when the component C includes the lead E, the sorting unit 50 can pass the component C in both the first posture and the second posture.
[0210] The orientation setting unit 80 is provided to adjust the component C having passed through the sorting unit 50 to the third posture. Thus, the component C in the third posture is supplied to the pickup position PP.
[0211] The third posture of the component C includes a posture in which the leads E protrude downward from the main body D. Thus, the mounting head 5 can hold the upper surface Da of the main body D with the suction nozzle 4 at the pickup position PP.
[0212] At the boundary between the first conveyor belt 21 and the conveying member 42 , the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 is higher than the conveying surface 420 of the conveying member 42 . Thus, scattered components C can be smoothly transferred from the first conveyor belt 21 to the conveying member 42 .
[0213] The housing 11 that accommodates the first conveyor belt 21 is provided with an opening 90. The opening 90 faces the insertion position IP. The opening 90 is opened and closed by a cover 97. When the component C existing at the insertion position IP of the housing 11 is discharged to the outside of the housing 11, the cover 97 is removed from the housing 11 to open the opening 90, thereby the component C is smoothly discharged to the outside of the housing 11.
[0214] The conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 includes an inclined surface 211 that is inclined upward from the input position IP toward the front. The opening 90 is provided behind the inclined surface 211. The opening 90 is opened, and thereby the component C is smoothly discharged to the outside of the housing 11.
[0215] The operation device 140 is operated to control the motor 24 so that the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 moves backward. The conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 moves backward, and the components C remaining on the first conveyor belt 21 are discharged from the opening 90 to the outside of the housing 11.
[0216] When the motor 24 is out of step, the motor 24 stops. For example, when the component C is clamped between the first conveyor belt 21 and the housing 11, or when the component C is clamped between the first conveyor belt 21 and the conveying component 42, the possibility of the motor 24 being out of step becomes high. When the motor 24 is out of step, if the driving of the motor 24 continues and the driving of the first conveyor belt 21 continues, the component C and the first conveyor belt 21 rub against each other, and there is a possibility that the first conveyor belt 21 is worn. Similarly, for example, when the component C is clamped between the second conveyor belt 22 and the housing 11, if the driving of the second conveyor belt 22 continues, there is a possibility that the second conveyor belt 22 is worn. A rotation sensor 120 is provided to detect the out of step of the motor 24. When it is determined that the motor 24 is out of step based on the detection data of the rotation sensor 120, the motor 24 stops. In this way, the wear of the first conveyor belt 21 or the wear of the second conveyor belt 22 is suppressed.
[0217] When the state of the motor 24 is abnormal, the notification device 150 is activated. Thus, the operator can recognize that the motor 24 is out of step.
[0218] When it is determined that the conveying member 42 is full of components C and is not being smoothly conveyed while the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 is moving forward, the motor 24 is controlled so that the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 is slightly moved backward. The first conveyor belt 21 moves in the reverse direction, thereby discharging the components C from between the first conveyor belt 21 and the conveying member 42 even when the components C are sandwiched between the first conveyor belt 21 and the conveying member 42. After the conveying surface 210 of the first conveyor belt 21 is slightly moved backward, the driving of the first conveyor belt 21 is stopped, thereby stopping the supply of the components C from the first conveyor belt 21 to the conveying member 42. As a result, the state in which the conveying member 42 is full of components C is resolved.
[0219] When it is determined that the conveying member 42 is full of components C and is not being smoothly conveyed, the vibration of the vibrator 41 stops after the driving of the first conveyor belt 21 stops. As a result, the components C of the conveying member 42 move forward in a state where the supply of the components C from the first conveyor belt 21 to the conveying member 42 stops. Therefore, the state where the conveying member 42 is full of components C is resolved.
