[0053] Hereinafter, an example of an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the same reference numerals are attached to the same or corresponding parts in each figure.

[0054] <Electronic Component Package Manufacturing System>

[0055] Figure 1 1 is a schematic diagram showing a system for manufacturing an electronic component package according to the present embodiment. Figure 2 It is a perspective view showing an example of the electronic component storage container according to the present embodiment. Figure 3 It is a perspective view showing an example of the electronic component package according to the present embodiment.

Figure 5 This is a schematic configuration diagram showing an example of a storage room according to the present embodiment. Figure 6 : is a schematic configuration diagram showing an example of a control device (host device) according to the present embodiment.

[0056] Figure 1The manufacturing system 1 of the electronic component package shown is a system for manufacturing and storing an electronic component package (electronic component package) in which a plurality of electronic components, such as a plurality of laminated ceramic capacitors, are packaged. The manufacturing system 1 includes one or more packaging devices 100, a storage warehouse 300, and a control device 500 as a main device. In addition, the manufacturing system 1 may also include a loading machine 310, a conveying machine 320, and an inspection process area 400 as a next process area.

[0057] <<Packaging device>>

[0058] The packaging device 100 packages a plurality of electronic components 10 with a packaging material to produce an electronic component package 20. Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, a plurality of electronic components 10 are transported to each packaging device 100 in a state of being contained in a containing container 15. Figure 3 As shown, the packaging device 100 accommodates a plurality of electronic components 10 in the concave portion 23 of a long or belt-shaped carrier tape 22, and packages the plurality of electronic components 10 with the carrier tape 22 and the cover tape 24 (packaging material). The packaging device 100 winds the long or belt-shaped carrier tape 22 and the cover tape 24 (packaging material) into a reel shape to produce an electronic component package 20. The details of the electronic component storage container 15 and the electronic component package 20 will be described later.

[0059] Furthermore, the packaging device 100 accommodates a plurality of electronic component packages 20 in a transport tool (transport bucket / transport box) 30. For example, Figure 4 As shown, the packaging device 100 sequentially overlaps and arranges the produced electronic component packages 20 on the conveying tool 30. The details of the conveying tool 30 will be described later.

[0060] <<<Electronic component storage container>>>

[0061] Regarding the electronic component storage container 15 described above, the electronic components 10 of the same processing lot are stored in one storage container 15. In addition, the electronic components 10 of the same processing lot may be stored in a plurality of electronic component storage containers 15.

[0062] like Figure 2 As shown, the electronic component storage container 15 is provided with an identifier 11 that holds batch-related identification information associated with the processing batch of the electronic component 10. For example, as the identifier 11 for identifying the batch-related information, a barcode or a two-dimensional code is attached to the outer surface of the storage container 15. Alternatively, as the identifier 11 for identifying the batch-related information, an RFID may be provided on the storage container 15.

[0063] The batch-related identification information may also directly include the processing batch information of the electronic component 10. Alternatively, the batch-related identification information may also be identification information associated with the processing batch information of the electronic component 10. For example, the batch-related identification information may also be information of the electronic component storage container 15 associated with the processing batch information of the electronic component 10. In this case, for example, in the storage process of storing the electronic component 10 in the storage container 15, the processing batch information of the electronic component 10 and the information of the electronic component storage container 15 are associated by the control device 500. Thus, after the storage process, the control device 500 can determine the processing batch of the electronic component 10 stored in the storage container 15 based on the information of the electronic component storage container 15.

[0064] <<<Electronic Components Package>>>

[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, the electronic component package 20 is provided with an identifier 21 that holds identification information of the package 20. For example, as the identifier 21 for identifying the package information, a barcode or a two-dimensional code may be attached to the outer surface of the package 20. Alternatively, as the identifier 21 for identifying the package information, an RFID may be provided on the package 20.

[0066] <<<Transportation Tools>>>

[0067] like Figure 4 As shown, the transport tool 30 is configured to accommodate and transport a plurality of packages 20. The transport tool 30 is provided with an identifier 31 for holding identification information of the transport tool 30. For example, as the identifier 31 for identifying the transport tool information, a barcode or a two-dimensional code is attached to the outer surface of the transport tool 30. Alternatively, as the identifier 31 for identifying the transport tool information, an RFID may be provided on the transport tool 30.

[0068] <<<Processing batches of electronic components>>>

[0069] Here, a processing lot is a manufacturing lot consisting of a plurality of electronic components 10 manufactured under the same conditions. For example, a manufacturing lot as a processing lot may also consist of a plurality of electronic components 10 packaged in a plurality of electronic component packages 20 housed in one or more transport jigs 30 .

[0070] Refer again Figure 1Each packaging device 100 includes a batch-related identification information acquisition device 120 and a first carrier identification information acquisition device 130. That is, the batch-related identification information acquisition device 120 and the first carrier identification information acquisition device 130 are provided for each packaging device 100. In addition, each packaging device 100 may also include a first package identification information acquisition device 140. That is, the first package identification information acquisition device 140 may also be provided for each packaging device 100.

[0071] The batch-related identification information acquisition device 120 acquires identification information directly including the processing batch information of the electronic component 10 as the batch-related identification information of the electronic component 10. Alternatively, the batch-related identification information acquisition device 120 may acquire identification information associated with the processing batch information of the electronic component 10 as the batch-related identification information of the electronic component 10. For example, the batch-related identification information acquisition device 120 is a barcode reader or a two-dimensional code reader, and reads the batch-related identification information from an identifier 11 such as a barcode or a two-dimensional code provided on the electronic component storage container 15. Alternatively, the batch-related identification information acquisition device 120 is an RFID reader, and reads the batch-related identification information from an identifier 11 such as an RFID.

[0072] The first carrier identification information acquisition device 130 acquires carrier identification information of the carrier 30. For example, the first carrier identification information acquisition device 130 is a barcode reader or a two-dimensional code reader, and reads carrier identification information from an identifier 31 such as a barcode or a two-dimensional code provided on the carrier 30. Alternatively, the first carrier identification information acquisition device 130 is an RFID reader, and reads carrier identification information from an identifier 31 such as an RFID.

[0073] The first package identification information acquisition device 140 acquires the package identification information of the electronic component package 20. For example, the first package identification information acquisition device 140 is a barcode reader or a two-dimensional code reader, and reads the package identification information from the identifier 21 such as a barcode or a two-dimensional code provided on the package 20. Alternatively, the first package identification information acquisition device 140 is an RFID reader, and reads the package identification information from the identifier 21 such as an RFID.

[0074] In addition, the batch-related identification information acquisition device 120 may also be an input unit for the user to input batch-related identification information. In addition, the first carrier identification information acquisition device 130 may also be an input unit for the user to input carrier identification information. In addition, the first package identification information acquisition device 140 may also be an input unit for the user to input package identification information. In this case, the batch-related identification information acquisition device 120, the first carrier identification information acquisition device 130, and the first package identification information acquisition device 140 are composed of, for example, a keyboard or mouse having physical operation buttons or a touch panel having virtual operation buttons.

[0075] <<Loading Machine>>

[0076] like Figure 1 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the loading machine 310 loads the transport tool 30 containing the electronic component package 20 into the storage warehouse 300. The loading machine 310 may include a first loading machine 311 and a second loading machine 312.

[0077] The first loading machine 311 is, for example, an AGV (Automatic Guided Vehicle), and transfers the transport tool 30 from the packaging device 100 to the second loading machine 312 based on an instruction signal from the control device 500 .

[0078] The second loading machine 312 is, for example, a storage robot equipped with a conveyor, a stacking crane, a manipulator arm, etc., and based on an instruction signal from the control device 500, for example, storage location information, it transports the transport tool 30 transported by the first loading machine 311 to the storage location of the storage warehouse 300.

[0079] In addition, the loading machine 310 may sequentially load a plurality of transport tools 30 into an empty storage location of the storage warehouse 300 based on an instruction signal from the control device 500, so that a plurality of transport tools 30 containing electronic components 10 of the same processing batch may be stored at separate locations. In addition, the loading machine 310 may also be a transport cart that is transported by a worker.

[0080] <<Safe Depository>>

[0081] like Figure 5As shown, the storage warehouse 300 is an automatic warehouse for storing the transport tools 30 containing the electronic component packages 20. The storage warehouse 300 has storage location information (address information) for each storage location where the transport tools 30 are stored. The transport tools 30 are sequentially moved to the vacant storage locations of the storage warehouse 300 according to the command of the control device 500. As described later, when the transport tools 30 are moved to the storage warehouse 300, the transport tool identification information of each transport tool 30 stored in the storage warehouse 300 and the storage location information indicating the storage location of each transport tool 30 are associated and stored by the control device 500.

[0082] <<Transfer Machine>>

[0083] like Figure 1 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the conveyor 320 conveys the conveyance tool 30 containing the electronic component package 20 from the storage 300 to the next process area 400. The conveyor 320 may include a first conveyor 321 and a second conveyor 322.

[0084] The first transporter 321 is, for example, a warehouse-out robot equipped with a conveyor, a stacker crane, a manipulator arm, etc., and transports the designated transport tool indicated by the transport instruction signal from the storage location of the storage warehouse 300 indicated by the storage location information indicated by the transport instruction signal to the second transporter 322 based on the transport instruction signal from the control device 500. Thus, the first transporter 321 can out a transport tool 30 containing a package 20 in which electronic components 10 of a designated processing lot are packaged from among the plurality of transport tools 30 stored in the storage warehouse 300.

[0085] The second transporter 322 is, for example, an AGV (Automatic Guided Vehicle), and transports the designated transport tool 30 transported by the first transporter to the inspection process area 400, which is the next process area. Alternatively, the transporter 320 may be a transport cart that is transported by a worker.

[0086] The storage 300 or the transport machine 320 may further include a second transport tool identification information acquisition device 330. The second transport tool identification information acquisition device 330 acquires the transport tool identification information of the transport tool 30 when the transport tool 30 is transported from the storage 300. For example, the second transport tool identification information acquisition device 330 is a barcode reader or a two-dimensional code reader, and reads the transport tool identification information from an identifier 31 such as a barcode or a two-dimensional code provided on the transport tool 30. Alternatively, the second transport tool identification information acquisition device 330 is an RFID reader, and reads the transport tool identification information from an identifier 31 such as an RFID.

[0087] The second carrier identification information acquisition device 330 may be an input unit for a user to input carrier identification information. In this case, the second carrier identification information acquisition device 330 may be, for example, a keyboard or mouse having physical operation buttons or a touch panel having virtual operation buttons.

[0088] <<Next process area (Inspection process area)>>

[0089] The next process area 400 is an inspection process area 400 for inspecting the electronic component package 20. Examples of the inspection contents of the electronic component package 20 include an appearance inspection of the electronic component package 20 (confirmation of the packaging state, etc.) or an appearance inspection of the electronic component 10. The inspection contents in the inspection process may need to be changed for each processing batch of the electronic component. In this regard, according to the present embodiment, since the electronic components of the designated processing batch unit can be transported from the storage 300 to the next process area, it is particularly useful when the next process area is an inspection process area.

[0090] In addition, the next process area 400 is not limited to the inspection process area. For example, the next process area 400 may also be a shipment preparation area. In this case, the same inspection process as described above may be performed between the packaging process performed by the packaging device 100 and the storage process using the storage warehouse 300. When the next process area 400 is a shipment preparation area, it is useful in establishing a connection between a specific processing batch of electronic components and a shipping destination to perform shipment management. In addition, the shipment operation by batch unit becomes easy.

[0091] <<Control device (main device)>>

[0092] like Figure 6 As shown, the control device 500 controls the conveyor 320 so that the conveying tool 30 containing the electronic component package 20 in which the electronic components 10 of the designated processing lot are packaged is conveyed from the storage 300 to the inspection process area 400 which is the next process area. The control device 500 includes a first association information generating unit 511, a processing lot specifying unit 520, a conveying tool specifying unit 530, a conveyance instruction signal output unit 540, and a storage unit 560. In addition, the control device 500 may also include a second association information generating unit 512 and a comparison processing unit 550.

[0093] <<<First association information generating unit>>>

[0094] The first association information generating unit 511 receives the batch-related identification information acquired by the batch-related identification information acquiring unit 120 of the packaging device 100 and the conveying tool identification information acquired by the first conveying tool identification information acquiring unit 130 of the packaging device 100 via a communication interface in accordance with a wireless or wired communication standard. The first association information generating unit 511 associates the batch-related identification information with the conveying tool identification information to generate the first association information. The generated first association information may also be stored in the storage unit 560.

[0095] Alternatively, the first associating information generating unit 511 may receive the package identification information acquired by the first package identification information acquiring device 140 of the packaging apparatus 100 and further associate the package identification information to generate the first associating information.

[0096] <<<Second association information generating unit>>>

[0097] The second association information generating unit 512 generates the second association information by associating the transport tool identification information of each transport tool 30 stored in the storage 300 with the storage location information indicating the storage location of each transport tool 30. For example, the control device 500 may determine to which storage location of the storage 300 the transport tool 30 brought into the storage 300 by the loading machine 310, such as the first loading machine 311 and the second loading machine 312, is to be brought, and instruct the loading machine 310, such as the first loading machine 311 and the second loading machine 312. Thus, the second association information generating unit 512 can associate the transport tool identification information of the transport tool 30 brought in by the loading machine 310 with the storage location information of the transport tool 30 brought in by the loading machine 310.

[0098] <<<Processing Batch Designation Department>>>

[0099] The processing lot designation unit 520 designates the electronic components of a specific processing lot as the designated processing lot. For example, the processing lot designation unit 520 may also receive input information from an operator via a keyboard or mouse having physical operation buttons or a touch panel having virtual operation buttons, and designate the designated processing lot based on the input information from the operator. Alternatively, for example, the processing lot designation unit 520 may also receive an instruction from a higher-level device via a communication interface in accordance with a wireless or wired communication standard, and designate the designated processing lot based on the instruction from the higher-level device.

[0100] <<<Transport Tool Designation Department>>>

[0101] The transport tool designating unit 530 designates, based on the designated processing lot and the first association information, a transport tool 30 containing an electronic component package 20 in which electronic components 10 of the designated processing lot are packaged as a designated transport tool from among the plurality of transport tools 30 stored in the storage 300. In addition, when the electronic components 10 of the same processing lot are divided by a plurality of transport tools 30, the designated transport tool includes these plurality of transport tools 30.

[0102] <<<Transportation instruction signal output unit>>>

[0103] The transport instruction signal output unit 540 outputs a transport instruction signal to the transport machine 320, for example, the first transport machine 321 and the second transport machine 322, via a communication interface in accordance with a wireless or wired communication standard, the transport instruction signal instructing to transport the designated transport tool designated by the transport tool designating unit 530 from the storage 300 to the next process area 400. In addition, the transport instruction signal output unit 540 may determine the storage location information of the designated transport tool designated by the transport tool designating unit 530 based on the second association information, and output the transport instruction signal including the determined storage location information to the transport machine 320, for example, the first transport machine 321 and the second transport machine 322.

[0104] <<<Control Processing Section>>>

[0105] When the transporter 320 transports the designated transport tool from the storage location of the storage 300, the comparison processing unit 550 compares the transport tool identification information acquired by the second transport tool identification information acquisition device 330 of the storage 300 or the transporter 320 with the transport tool identification information of the designated transport tool 30. This can further reduce the possibility that electronic components of different processing lots are shipped out.

[0106] The first association information generating unit 511, the second association information generating unit 512, the processing batch specifying unit 520, the transport tool specifying unit 530, the transport instruction signal output unit 540, and the comparison processing unit 550 of the control device 500 are composed of one or more computing processors such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a DSP (Digital Signal Processor), and an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array). The various functions of the control device 500 are realized by executing a given software (program) stored in the storage unit 560. The various functions of the control device 500 can be realized by the linkage of hardware and software, or can be realized only by hardware (electronic circuit).

[0107] All functions of the control device 500 do not necessarily need to be provided in the main device, and part of the functions of the control device 500 may be separately provided in a device other than the main device. For example, the first association information generating unit 511 may be provided in the packaging device 100, and the second association information generating unit 512 may be provided in the storage 300 or the loading machine 310.

[0108] The storage unit 560 stores programs (software) executed by various parts of the control device 500. In addition, the storage unit 560 stores the first association information and the second association information. The storage unit 560 is composed of a recording medium such as a ROM (Read Only Memory), a HDD (Hard Disk Drive), an SSD (Solid State Drive), or a removable memory card.

[0109] Next, the packaging, storage operation, and designation operation performed by the electronic component package manufacturing system according to the present embodiment will be described. Figure 7 FIG. 1 is a flowchart showing the packaging and storage operations performed by the electronic component package manufacturing system according to the present embodiment. Figure 8 This is a flowchart showing a predetermined operation performed by the electronic component package manufacturing system according to the present embodiment.

[0110] <Packaging and storage operations>

[0111] like Figure 7 As shown, the packaging device 100 packages a plurality of electronic components 10 to produce an electronic component package 20. Furthermore, the packaging device 100 accommodates the plurality of electronic component packages 20 in the transport jig 30 (S11).

[0112] At this time, the batch-related identification information acquisition device 120 of the packaging device 100 acquires the batch-related identification information associated with the processing batch of the electronic component 10 from the identifier 11 of the electronic component storage container 15 (S12). In addition, the first carrier identification information acquisition device 130 of the packaging device 100 acquires the carrier identification information of the carrier 30 from the identifier 31 of the carrier 30 (S12). In this way, the first associated information generation unit 511 of the control device 500 associates the batch-related identification information with the carrier identification information to generate the first associated information (S13).

[0113] The transporter 310 transports the transport tool 30 from the packaging device 100 to the storage 300 and stores it in the storage location of the storage 300 (S14). At this time, the second association information generating unit 512 of the control device 500 associates the transport tool 30 with the storage location information and generates the second association information (S15).

[0114] The operations of steps S11 to S15 are repeated. Thus, a plurality of transport tools 30 are stored in the storage 300, and the transport tools 30 are transport tools 30 that contain electronic component packages 20 that package electronic components 10 for each processing batch of electronic components 10. In addition, the control device 500 generates first association information that associates the batch association identification information with the transport tool identification information. In addition, second association information that associates the transport tool 30 with the storage location information is generated.

[0115] <Specify action>

[0116] The operator enters the specific processing batch. Figure 8 As shown, the processing batch designation unit 520 of the control device 500 designates the designated processing batch based on the specific processing batch (S21). The transport tool designation unit 530 of the control device 500 designates the designated transport tool 30 of the electronic component package 20 that packages the electronic components 10 of the designated processing batch based on the designated processing batch and the first association information (S22). The transport instruction signal output unit 540 of the control device 500 outputs a transport instruction signal that designates and causes the designated transport tool 30 to be transported (S23). At this time, the transport instruction signal output unit 540 may also output a transport instruction signal including the storage location information of the designated transport tool 30 based on the second association information.

[0117] The transporter 320 transports the designated transport tool 30 indicated by the transport instruction signal from the storage location of the storage warehouse 300 indicated by the storage location information indicated by the transport instruction signal to the next process area 400 ( S24 ).

[0118] At this time, the second carrier identification information acquisition device 330 of the transporter 320 acquires carrier identification information from the identifier 31 of the designated carrier 30 that has been shipped out (S25). The comparison processing unit 550 of the control device 500 compares the carrier identification information of the designated carrier 30 that has been shipped out with the carrier identification information of the designated carrier 30 that has issued the instruction (S26).

[0119] Thus, the transport jig 30 storing the electronic component package 20 in which the electronic components 10 of a specific processing lot are packaged can be transported to the next process area 400 from among the plurality of transport jigs 30 stored in the storage 300 .
