Description of an exemplary embodiment

[0008] An embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the drawings. The configuration, shape, and the like described below are examples for illustrative purposes and can be modified appropriately according to the specifications of a component assembly device and an operating unit. In the following, corresponding elements are designated with the same reference numerals throughout all the drawings, and redundant descriptions are omitted. Fig. 1 and a part described below are an X-axis (in Fig. 1 in left and right directions) in a substrate conveying direction and a Y-axis (in Fig. 1 (in the upper and lower directions) orthogonal to the substrate conveying direction, represented as two axes orthogonal to each other in a horizontal plane. In Fig. 1 and a part to be described below is a Z-axis (top-bottom direction in Fig. 2) represented as a height direction orthogonal to the horizontal plane.

[0009] First, a configuration of the component assembly device 1 is defined with reference to the Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 described. In Fig. In the center of an upper section of the base 2, a first substrate conveyor L1 and a second substrate conveyor L2 are arranged spaced apart from each other in the Y-axis direction. These conveyors transport the substrate 3 along the X-axis from an upstream side (left side of the page) to a downstream side (right side of the page). Hereinafter, in the Y-axis direction, the side on which the first substrate conveyor L1 is located is referred to as the front (bottom of the page), and the side on which the second substrate conveyor L2 is located is referred to as the back (top of the page).

[0010] In the Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 The first substrate conveyor L1 comprises a first substrate conveyor unit K1 with a pair of substrate conveyor belts that convey the substrate 3. The second substrate conveyor L2 comprises a second substrate conveyor unit K2 with a pair of substrate conveyor belts that convey the substrate 3. Each of the first substrate conveyor units K1 and the second substrate conveyor unit K2 conveys the substrate 3 from the upstream side to the downstream side and delivers the substrate 3 to an adjacent device.As described above, the component assembly device 1 comprises a first substrate conveyor L1, which conveys the substrate 3 along the X-axis (an axis extending in a horizontal direction), and a second substrate conveyor L2, which is located at a position away from the first substrate conveyor L1 in a direction along the Y-axis (another axis orthogonal to the X-axis in the horizontal plane) and conveys the substrate 3 along the X-axis.

[0011] In the Fig. 1 and Fig. In the component assembly device 1, a first component feed section S1 is arranged upstream of a first substrate conveyor L1, and a second component feed section S2 is arranged downstream of a second substrate conveyor L2. In each of the first component feed sections S1 and second component feed sections S2, a carriage 5, to which a plurality of component feed units 4 (belt conveyors) are pre-attached, is arranged in an upper section. The carriage 5 holds rollers 7 that store carrier belts 6, which hold the components in a wound-up state. The carrier belt 6, pulled out from the roller 7, is fed by the component feed unit 4 at a specific distance, and the component held by the carrier belt 6 is fed to a component feed position.

[0012] As described above, the component assembly device 1 comprises a first component feed section S1, which is located at a position (front) opposite the second substrate conveyor L2 and away from the first substrate conveyor L1 in the Y-axis direction, and comprises the plurality of component assembly units 4 arranged parallel along the X-axis. That is, the first component feed section S1 is located at the position opposite the second substrate conveyor L2 with respect to the first substrate conveyor L1 and away from the first substrate conveyor L1 in the Y-axis direction.Additionally, the component assembly device 1 comprises a second component feed section S2, which is located at a position (rear) on the side opposite the first substrate conveyor L1 and away from the second substrate conveyor L2 in the direction along the Y-axis, and comprises the plurality of component feed units 4, which are arranged parallel along the X-axis. That is, the second component feed section S2 is located at the position that is on the side opposite the first substrate conveyor L1 in the direction along the Y-axis with respect to the second substrate conveyor L2 and away from the second substrate conveyor L2.

[0013] In the Fig. 1 and Fig. In the Y-axis table 8, located on the upstream side, and the Y-axis support 9, located on the downstream side, are positioned at both end sections of an upper surface of the base 2 along the X-axis. Guide sections 10, extending along the Y-axis, are arranged at opposite positions within the Y-axis table 8 and the Y-axis support 9. Additionally, a Y-axis linear motor 11, extending along the Y-axis, is mounted on the Y-axis table 8. Between the Y-axis table 8 and the Y-axis support 9, a first beam B1 is positioned at the front and a second beam B2 at the rear. The first beam B1 and the second beam B2 are driven by the Y-axis linear motor 11 to move back and forth along the guide section 10.

[0014] A first linear motor D1, extending along the X-axis, is mounted on the first beam B1. Additionally, a first movable element E1, driven by the first linear motor D1 and moving left and right along the X-axis, is coupled to the first beam B1. A first working head H1 and a first head camera C1 are attached to the first movable element E1. A second linear motor D2, extending along the X-axis, is mounted on the second beam B2. Additionally, a second movable element E2, driven by the second linear motor D2 and moving left and right along the X-axis, is coupled to the second beam B2. A second working head H2 and a second head camera C2 are attached to the second movable element E2.

[0015] In Fig. 2 A plurality of component holding nozzles 12 are attached to the lower end sections of a first working head H1 and a second working head H2 for holding components. The first working head H1 and the second working head H2 raise and lower the component holding nozzles 12 along the Z-axis and rotate the component holding nozzles 12 about the Z-axis. The first working head H1 and the second working head H2 hold components securely by means of the component holding nozzles 12 and are mounted on the substrate 3.

[0016] In the Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. The first working head H1 is moved horizontally (X-axis and Y-axis directions) by the Y-axis linear motor 11 and the first linear motor D1. That is, the Y-axis table 8 and the first beam B1 form a first working head motion mechanism F1, which moves the first working head H1 and the first head camera C1, at least in a first area A1 above the first component feed section S1, to a second substrate conveyor L2. Furthermore, the first working head H1 and the first working head motion mechanism F1 form a first working unit U1.

[0017] The second working head H2 is moved horizontally by the Y-axis linear motor 11 and the second linear motor D2. That is, the Y-axis table 8 and the second beam B2 form a second working head movement mechanism F2, which moves the second working head H2 and the second head camera C2 from at least above the second component feed section S2 to the second area A2 above the first substrate conveyor L1. Furthermore, the second working head H2 and the second working head movement mechanism F2 form a second working unit U2.

[0018] In the Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. A first head camera C1 and a second head camera C2 move over a substrate 3, which is held at an assembly work position of a first substrate conveyor L1 or an assembly work position of a second substrate conveyor L2, and detect a substrate marker (not shown) provided on the substrate 3. A detection result is recognized graphically, and the position of the substrate 3 is recorded.

[0019] On the upper surface of base 2, a first component camera G1, which captures a top side, is arranged between the first component feed section S1 and the first substrate conveyor L1. Additionally, a second component camera G2, which also captures a top side, is arranged between the second component feed section S2 and the second substrate conveyor L2. When the first work head H1, which has picked up the component from the first component feed section S1, moves over the first component camera G1, the first component camera G1 captures the component held by the component holding nozzle 12.

[0020] When the second working head H2, which has removed the component from the second component feed section S2, moves over the second component camera G2, the second component camera G2 detects the component held by the component holding nozzle 12. A detection result is visualized, and the position of the component held by the component holding nozzle 12 is recorded.

[0021] In the Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. During component assembly on substrate 3, the first working head H1 corrects the component's assembly position, taking into account the substrate position detected by the first head camera C1 and the component's position detected by the first component camera G1. Similarly, during component assembly on substrate 3, the second working head H2 corrects the component's assembly position, taking into account the substrate position detected by the second head camera C2 and the component's position detected by the second component camera G2.

[0022] In the Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 In the component assembly device 1, a first operating unit P1 is arranged at a position where a worker can operate it from the front, and a second operating unit P2 is arranged at a position where the worker can operate it from the back. The first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2 are devices that include a monitor 14 (display) that shows various types of information and screens, a touchscreen 13 (input unit) that receives inputs of various types of information, a touch panel that includes a status indicator lamp 15 that indicates a status (valid or invalid) of the operating unit, and the like (see Fig. 8) The status indicator lamp 15 is lit in a state (valid) in which processing which includes control of the first working unit U1 or the second working unit U2 can be received, and the status indicator lamp 15 is off in a state (invalid) in which processing which includes control of the first working unit U1 or the second working unit U2 cannot be received.

[0023] In Fig. The control unit 20 is arranged on base 2. In addition to the first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2, each unit of the component assembly device 1 is connected to the control unit 20 (see Fig. 3) This allows the input units and displays of the first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2 to communicate with the controller 20. As described above, the first operating unit P1 includes an input unit and a display that can communicate with the controller 20 and is located on the side of the first component feed section S1. The second operating unit P2 also includes an input unit and a display that can communicate with the controller 20 and is located on the side of the second component feed section S2. Furthermore, the first operating unit P1 includes a status indicator lamp 15 (lamp) that indicates whether the first operating unit P1 is valid or invalid. The second operating unit P2 includes a status indicator lamp 15 (lamp) that indicates whether the second operating unit P2 is valid or invalid.

[0024] In the Fig. 1 and Fig. Control unit 20 controls the first work unit U1 and the component feeder unit 4 of the first component feeder section S1 to perform the component assembly work of mounting the component onto the substrate 3, which is held at the assembly work position of the first substrate conveyor L1 or the assembly work position of the second substrate conveyor L2. Additionally, control unit 20 controls the second work unit U2 and the component feeder unit 4 of the second component feeder section S2 to perform the component assembly work of attaching the component to the substrate 3, which is held at the assembly work position of the second substrate conveyor L2 or the assembly work position of the first substrate conveyor L1.

[0025] As described above, the component assembly device 1 is a two-stage / two-head component assembly device comprising two component feeding sections (first component feeding section S1 and second component feeding section S2) and two work units (first work unit U1 and second work unit U2). Furthermore, the controller 20 can control the first work unit U1 and the second work unit U2 in a variety of operating modes, such as a cooperative mode and an independent mode, which are described below, to perform the component assembly work.

[0026] Next, a detailed configuration of a control system for a two-stage / two-head component assembly device 1 will be presented with reference to Fig. 3 described. Here, a function for appropriately receiving the processing for a multitude of work units (first work unit U1 and second work unit U2) from a multitude of control units (first control unit P1 and second control unit P2) according to the operating mode is mainly described.

[0027] The control system 20 contained in the component assembly device 1 comprises a first work unit control 21, a first substrate feed unit control 22, a second work unit control 23, a second substrate feed unit control 24, a component feed section control 25, an operating mode setting unit 26, a processing unit 27, and a memory 28. The memory 28 is a storage device and stores production data 29 and the like. The production data 29 stores information required for each type of mounted substrate for component assembly work, such as the size of the substrate 3, the type of component to be assembled, and an assembly position (XY coordinates), as well as information regarding an operating mode (cooperation mode, independent mode, or the like) in addition to a control program. An example of a control system 20 is a computer.At least some functions of the controller 20 can be implemented by a computer processor.

[0028] In Fig. 3 During the production of the assembled substrate, the controller 20 sends various commands to the first work unit controller 21, the first substrate feeder controller 22, the second work unit controller 23, the second substrate feeder controller 24, and the component feeder control 25 according to the production data 29. The first work unit controller 21 controls the first work unit U1 based on a command from the controller 20 and a command from the processing unit 27. The first substrate feeder controller 22 controls the first substrate feeder K1 based on the command from the controller 20 and the command from the processing unit 27.

[0029] The second work unit controller 23 controls the second work unit U2 based on the command from controller 20 and the command from processing unit 27. The second substrate feeder controller 24 controls the second substrate feeder K2 based on the command from controller 20 and the command from processing unit 27. The component feeder section controller 25 controls the component feeder units 4 of the first component feeder section S1 and the second component feeder section S2 based on the command from controller 20 and the command from processing unit 27. As described above, controller 20 causes each unit to perform the component assembly work with reference to production data 29, which includes information regarding the assembly position of the component on the substrate 3.

[0030] Here, the cooperation mode and the independent mode are described as examples of the operating mode in which the first work unit controller 21 controls the first work unit U1 and the second work unit controller 23 controls the second work unit U2 in order to carry out the component assembly work with reference to Fig. 4 to execute.

[0031] First, the mode of cooperation will be discussed with regard to Fig. 4(a) described. In cooperation mode, the first work unit control 21 causes the component picked up by the component feeder 4 of the first component feeder section S1 to be mounted onto the substrate 3A conveyed by the first substrate conveyor L1 by the first work head H1 of the first work unit U1 (arrow a1). Additionally, the second work unit control 23 causes the component picked up by the component feeder 4 of the second component feeder section S2 to be applied to the substrate 3A by the second work head H2 of the second work unit U2 (arrow a2). The component mounting work (arrow a1) on the substrate 3A by the first work head H1 and the component mounting work (arrow a2) on the substrate 3A by the second work head H2 are performed alternately.

[0032] Additionally, the first work unit control 21 causes the component picked up by the component feeder 4 of the first component feeder section S1 to be mounted onto the substrate 3B, conveyed by the second substrate conveyor L2, by the first work head H1 of the first work unit U1 (arrow b1). Furthermore, the second work unit control 23 causes the component picked up by the component feeder 4 of the second component feeder section S2 to be applied to the substrate 3B by the second work head H2 of the second work unit U2 (arrow b2). The component mounting work (arrow b1) on the substrate 3B by the first work head H1 and the component mounting work (arrow b2) on the substrate 3B by the second work head H2 are performed alternately.

[0033] Next, the independent mode will be discussed with reference to Fig. 4(b) described. In independent mode, the first work unit control 21 performs the component assembly work, in which the component picked up by the component feeder 4 of the first component feeder section S1 is mounted onto the substrate 3A conveyed by the first substrate conveyor L1 by the first work head H1 of the first work unit U1 (arrow c1). Additionally, the second work unit control 23 performs the component assembly work, in which the component picked up by the component feeder 4 of the second component feeder section S2 is mounted onto the substrate 3B conveyed by the second substrate conveyor L2 by the second work head H2 of the second work unit U2 (arrow c2). The component assembly work (arrow c1) on substrate 3A by the first work head H1 and the component assembly work (arrow c2) on substrate 3B by the second work head H2 are performed independently of each other.

[0034] As described above, the multitude of operating modes includes the cooperation mode ( Fig. 4(a)), in which the first work unit U1 and the second work unit U2 jointly perform the component assembly work on the substrate 3A or 3B of the first substrate conveyor L1 or the second substrate conveyor L2, and the independent mode ( Fig. 4(b)), in which the first work unit U1 performs the component assembly work on the substrate 3A of the first substrate conveyor L1 and the second work unit U2 performs the component assembly work on the substrate 3B of the second substrate conveyor L2.

[0035] In Fig. 3. The operating mode setting unit 26 sets the operating mode to restrict the operations by the first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2 based on the operating mode information contained in the production data 29. Hereinafter, the first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2 are simply referred to as "operating unit P" when it is not necessary to distinguish between them. Similarly, the first work unit U1 and the second work unit U2 are simply referred to as "work unit U" when it is not necessary to distinguish between them.

[0036] Here, a specific example of the operator mode setting processing by the operator mode setting unit 26 is given with reference to a procedure according to Fig. 5 described. The operating mode setting unit 26 determines a production mode (operating mode) of the component assembly device 1 while the component assembly device 1 is in production operation (Yes in ST1) (ST2). In a case where the operating mode is the independent mode (Yes in ST3), the operating mode setting unit 26 receives the operation of the first work unit U1 from the first operating unit P1 and sets the operating mode to a first operating mode in which the operation of the second work unit U2 is received from the second operating unit P2 (ST4).

[0037] In a case where the operating mode is cooperation mode (No in ST3), the operator mode setting unit 26 sets the operator mode to a second operator mode in which the operations of the first work unit U1 and the second work unit U2 are received by one of the operator units P of the first operator unit P1 and the second operator unit P2, in which an input or processing that includes control for the work unit U is valid (ST5). If the component assembly device 1 is not in production mode (No in ST1), the operator mode setting unit 26 also sets the second operator mode (ST5).

[0038] In Fig. 3. The processing unit 27 processes the inputs from the first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2 based on the operating mode set by the operating mode setting unit 26. In particular, the processing unit 27 performs input processing in which operating information is received from the plurality of operating units P (first operating unit P1 and second operating unit P2), it determines from which operating unit P the input originates, and a command is issued based on the operating information.

[0039] Here, a specific example of input processing based on input content (operating information) from the first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2 is described, which is executed by the processing unit 27 in a case where the operating mode of the component assembly device 1 is the first operating mode, with reference to the sequence in Fig. 6. If the input is detected from the first operating unit P1 or the second operating unit P2 (Yes in ST11), the processing unit 27 determines from which operating unit P the input originates (ST12).

[0040] In a case where the input originates from the first operator unit P1 (Yes in ST13), the processing unit 27 performs processing based on the input content from the input unit (touchscreen 13) of the first operator unit P1 (ST14). Specifically, the processing unit 27 performs processing such that an input for processing relating to the first work unit U1 is received from the first operator unit P1, and an input for processing that does not include control of the second work unit U2 is received from the first operator unit P1.

[0041] In Fig. 6. In a case where the input originates from the second operating unit P2 (No. in ST13), the processing unit 27 performs processing based on the input content from the input unit (touchscreen 13) of the second operating unit P2 (ST15). In particular, the processing unit 27 receives input for processing regarding the second working unit U2 from the second operating unit P2 and receives input for processing that does not include control of the first working unit U1 from the second operating unit P2.

[0042] As described above, in a case where the operating mode of the component assembly device 1 is the independent mode and the operating mode is set to the first operating mode (ST4), the processing unit 27 performs processing such that a processing input which includes control of the first working unit U1, and a processing input which does not include control of the first working unit U1 and the second working unit U2 (working units U), are received by the first operating unit P1 (ST14), and an input from a processing which includes control of the second working unit U2, and an input from a processing which does not include control of the first working unit U1 and the second working unit U2 (working units U), are received by the second operating unit P2 (ST15).

[0043] Next, a specific example of input processing based on input content (operating information) from the first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2, which is executed by the processing unit 27, is described when the operating mode of the component assembly device 1 is the second operating mode, with reference to the sequence in Fig. 7. If the input is recognized from the first operating unit P1 or the second operating unit P2 (Yes in ST21), the processing unit 27 determines which operating unit P the input originates from and recognizes the input content (ST22).

[0044] In a case where an operation involving control of the work unit U is an input from a valid control unit P (hereinafter referred to simply as the "valid control unit") (Yes in ST23), the processing unit 27 determines whether the input content is an operation involving control of the work unit U and is an input where operation from another control unit P is restricted (hereinafter referred to simply as the "restricted input") (ST24). If the input is not a restricted input (No in ST24), the processing unit 27 determines whether the status indicator lamp 15 of another control unit P is off (invalid state) (ST25).

[0045] In Fig. 7. In a case where the status indicator lamp 15 is on in a state where another control unit P is valid (No in ST25), the processing unit 27 keeps the status indicator lamp unchanged, and in a case where the status indicator lamp 15 is off in a state where another control unit P is invalid (Yes in ST25), the processing unit brings another control unit P into the valid state to turn on the status indicator lamp 15 (ST26), and then performs the input processing based on the input content (ST27). In particular, the processing unit 27 performs processing to receive an input from the valid control unit P that does not involve control of the operating unit U (an input that is not a restricted input) (ST27).

[0046] In the case of restricted input (Yes in ST24), the processing unit 27 puts another operator unit P into an invalid state to turn off the status indicator lamp 15 (ST28), and then performs the input processing based on the input content (ST27). In particular, the processing unit 27 performs processing to receive an input (restricted input) from the valid operator unit P, which concerns the control of the working unit U (ST27).

[0047] More precisely, in a case where the operating mode of component assembly device 1 is the cooperation mode and the operator mode is set to the second operator mode (ST5), the processing unit 27, when the first operator unit P1 is valid (Yes in ST23), performs processing to receive from the first operator unit P1 an input for processing that includes the control of the first work unit U1 and the second work unit U2, and an input for processing that does not include the control of the first work unit U1 and the second work unit U2 (ST27).

[0048] If the second processing unit P2 is valid (Yes in ST23), the processing unit 27 also performs a processing operation to receive from the second processing unit P2 an input of a processing operation that includes control of the first processing unit U1 and the second processing unit U2, and an input of a processing operation that does not include control of the first processing unit U1 and the second processing unit U2 (ST27).

[0049] In Fig. 7. In a case where the input originates from the operator unit P (invalid operator unit P), which is not the valid operator unit (No in ST23), the processing unit 27 determines whether the input is restricted input (ST29). If the input is restricted input (Yes in ST29), the processing unit 27 performs processing to prevent receiving the input from the invalid operator unit P (returns to ST21). For example, the monitor 14 of the invalid operator unit P displays the message "Receiving restricted input is not permitted," and processing returns to ST21. In a case where the input is not restricted input (No in ST29), the processing unit 27 performs input processing based on the input content (ST27).In particular, the processing unit 27 performs a processing operation to receive an input of a processing operation that does not involve control of the work unit U (an input that is not the restricted input) from the invalid operating unit P (ST27).

[0050] More precisely, in a case where the operating mode of component assembly device 1 is the cooperation mode and the operator mode is set to the second operator mode (ST5), when the first operator unit P1 is invalid (No in ST23), the processing unit 27 does not receive any processing input from the first operator unit P1 that includes the control of the first work unit U1 and the second work unit U2 (Yes in ST29), and performs processing to receive a processing input that does not include the control of the first work unit U1 and the second work unit U2 (No in ST29 and ST27).

[0051] If the second operating unit P2 is invalid (No in ST23), the processing unit 27 also does not receive any input for processing that includes controlling the first working unit U1 and the second working unit U2 (Yes in ST29) from the second operating unit P2 and performs processing to receive an input for processing that does not include controlling the first working unit U1 and the second working unit U2 (No in ST29 and ST27).

[0052] Next, a concrete example of a status transition through operation in the control unit P of the component assembly device 1 will be given with reference to the Fig. Sections 8 to 10 are described. First, a configuration of the control unit P is described with reference to Fig. 8 described. The first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2 have similar configurations, and here the first operating unit P1 is described as an example. The first operating unit P1 comprises a touchscreen 13 as an input unit, a monitor 14 as a display, and a status indicator lamp 15. The monitor 14 and the touchscreen 13 each provide a first-level display area 30, a second-level display area 31, and a screen display area 32.

[0053] In display area 30 of the first level, the start button 30h, the selection button 30a for function A, the selection button 30b for function B, the selection button 30c for function C, the selection button 30d for function D, and the selection button 30e for function E are displayed. When one of the selection buttons 30a to 30e is selected in display area 30 of the first level, a sub-function selection button for selecting a sub-function of the selected function is displayed in display area 31 of the second level. In this example, the function A selection button 30a is selected in display area 30 of the first level, and the sub-function A1 selection button 31a, the sub-function A2 selection button 31b, the sub-function A3 selection button 31c, and the sub-function A4 selection button 31d are displayed as sub-function selection buttons in display area 31 of the second level.

[0054] In Fig. 8. A screen corresponding to the sub-function selection key selected in display area 31 of the second level is displayed in screen display area 32. Note that if a sub-function has a third level defined, a third-level sub-sub-function selection key may be displayed in screen display area 32. In this example, sub-function selection key 31a for sub-function A1 is selected in display area 31 of the second level, and a screen (hereafter referred to as "Screen A1" or similar) corresponding to sub-function A1 is displayed in screen display area 32.

[0055] In the following, Function A is a data reference function that does not involve control of the work unit U. Therefore, selecting the function A buttons and sub-functions A1 to A4 is an unrestricted input. Furthermore, Function B is a function for stopping operation in work unit U with control of the work unit U, for returning from a fault stop, for teaching, calibration, and the like. Therefore, selecting the function B buttons and sub-functions B1 to B3 is a restricted input.

[0056] Next, the selection of the selection buttons on the first control unit P1 and the second control unit P2, the screen display in display area 32 of the monitor 14 relating to the selection, and the switching on or off of the status indicator lamp 15 are described with reference to the Fig. 9 and Fig. 10 described. In the Fig. 9 and Fig. Figure 10 shows the status indicator lamp 15 in a circle and the screen display area 32 in a rectangle in one field of the first control unit and one field of the second control unit. In the status indicator lamp 15, a white circle (◯) indicates an ON state (valid) and a black circle (•) indicates an OFF state (invalid). Additionally, characters in the display area 32 indicate the content of a screen to be displayed.

[0057] First, scenes 1 to 8 will be used as a basis for discussion, with reference to Fig. Section 9 describes an example of the operation and status transition of the control unit P of the component assembly device 1, which is set to the first operating mode. That is, the component assembly device 1 produces the mounted substrate in independent mode. Initially, the first control unit P1 and the second control unit P2 are set as the initial scene, and a start screen (screen H) is displayed on the screen display area 32 (scene 1). In this state, both the first control unit P1 and the second control unit P2 are active, and the status indicator lamp 15 is illuminated.

[0058] If sub-function A1 is subsequently selected by the first control unit P1, screen A1 is displayed in display area 32 of the first control unit P1, but there is no change in the second control unit P2 (scene 2). At this point, the operating information for sub-function A1, which does not affect the control of the working unit U, is transmitted from the first control unit P1, and an input for processing sub-function A1 is received by processing unit 27 (ST14). It should be noted that in the first operating mode, the display of the second control unit P2 is independent of the operation of the first control unit P1 and does not change.

[0059] In Fig. 9. If sub-function A2 is subsequently selected by the first control unit P1, the operating information for sub-function A2 is transmitted from the first control unit P1, and screen A2 is displayed in display area 32 of the first control unit P1, but there is no change in the second control unit P2 (Scene 3). If sub-function B3 is subsequently selected by the second control unit P2, screen B3 is displayed in display area 32 of the second control unit P2, but there is no change in the first control unit P1 (Scene 4). At this point, the operating information for sub-function B3, which concerns the control of the work unit U, is transmitted from the second control unit P2, and processing unit 27 receives an input for processing sub-function B3 (ST15).It should be noted that in the first operating mode, the display of the first control unit P1 is independent of the operation of the second control unit P2 and does not change.

[0060] If the sub-function B1 is subsequently selected by the first control unit P1, the operating information for sub-function B1 is transferred from the first control unit P1 and screen B1 is displayed in display area 32 of the first control unit P1, while the second control unit P2 remains unchanged (Scene 5). If the sub-function B2 is subsequently selected by the first control unit P1, the operating information for sub-function B2 is transferred from the first control unit P1 and screen B2 is displayed in display area 32 of the first control unit P1, but there is no change in the second control unit P2 (Scene 6).

[0061] In Fig. 9. If the second control unit P2 subsequently selects the start button 30h, the display area 32 of the second control unit P2 returns to the home screen (screen H), but there is no change in the first control unit P1 (scene 7). If the first control unit P1 subsequently selects the start button 30h, the display area 32 of the first control unit P1 returns to the home screen (screen H), but there is no change in the second control unit P2 (scene 8).

[0062] Next, an example of the operation and status transition of the control unit P of the component assembly device 1, which is set to the second operating mode, will be shown using scenes 11 to 19 with reference to Fig. 10 described. That is, the component assembly device 1 produces the assembled substrate in cooperation mode. First, the first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2 are set as the initial scene, and the start screen (screen H) is displayed in display area 32 (scene 11). In this state, both the first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2 are valid, and the status indicator lamp 15 is illuminated.

[0063] It should be noted that in the second operating mode, when both the first operating unit P1 and the second operating unit P2 are valid, the same screen is displayed in display area 32 of the first operating unit P1 and in display area 32 of the second operating unit P2, and the screen display switches synchronously. Fig. In scene 10, the synchronization symbol 33, indicated by a double arrow, is displayed in a scene where the screen display area 32 of the first control unit P1 and the screen display area 32 of the second control unit P2 are synchronized. That is, in scene 11, the screen display of display area 32 of the first control unit P1 and the screen display of display area 32 of the second control unit P2 are synchronized.

[0064] In Fig. 10. If sub-function A1 is subsequently selected by the first control unit P1, screen A1 is displayed in screen display area 32 of the first control unit P1, and screen A1 is also displayed synchronously in screen display area 32 of the second control unit P2 (scene 12). That is, since the selection of sub-function A1 is not a restricted input (No in ST24), and another second control unit P2 is valid and the status indicator lamp 15 is lit (No in ST24), the status indicator lamp 15 of the second control unit P2 does not change, the operating information of sub-function A1, which does not include control of the working unit U, is transmitted from the first control unit P1, and the processing input for sub-function A1 is received by the processing unit 27 (ST27).

[0065] If the sub-function A2 is subsequently selected by the first control unit P1, the operating information of the sub-function A2 is transmitted from the first control unit P1, the screen A2 is displayed in display area 32 of the first control unit P1, and the screen A2 is also displayed synchronously in display area 32 of the second control unit P2 (Scene 13).

[0066] In Fig. 10. If sub-function B3 is subsequently selected by the second control unit P2, screen B3 is displayed in screen display area 32 of the second control unit P2, the first control unit P1 is invalid, and the status indicator lamp 15 is off, but there is no change in the display screen of screen display area 32 (scene 14). That is, the selection of sub-function B3 is the restricted input (Yes in ST24), the first control unit P1 is invalid, and the status indicator lamp 15 is off (ST28), the operating information of sub-function B3, which concerns the control of the working unit U, is transmitted by the second control unit P2, and the processing unit 27 receives an input for processing for sub-function B3 (ST27).

[0067] Furthermore, the first control unit P1 is the invalid control unit (No in ST23), and restricted input, such as selecting function B from the first control unit P1, is no longer received (Yes in ST29). Additionally, the screen display in display area 32 of the first control unit P1 and the screen display in display area 32 of the second control unit P2 are not synchronized (they are asynchronous).

[0068] In Fig. 10. When the start button 30h is subsequently selected by the first control unit P1, the screen display area 32 of the first control unit P1 returns to the start screen (screen H), but there is no change to the status indicator lamp 15 of the first control unit P1 and the status indicator lamp 15 and screen display area 32 of the second control unit P2 (scene 15).

[0069] Subsequently, when sub-function A1 is selected by the first control unit P1, the operating information for sub-function A1 is transmitted from the first control unit P1, and screen A1 is displayed in screen display area 32 of the first control unit P1. However, there is no change in the status indicator lamp 15 of the first control unit P1 or in the status indicator lamp 15 and screen display area 32 of the second control unit P2 (scene 16). That is, since the input from the first control unit P1, which is the invalid control unit (No in ST23), is not a restricted input (No in ST29), processing unit 27 receives an input for processing for sub-function A1 that does not include control of the working unit U (ST27).

[0070] In Fig. 10. If the start button 30h is subsequently selected by the second control unit P2, the screen display area 32 of the second control unit P2 returns to the start screen (screen H), the first control unit P1 is valid and the status indicator lamp 15 is turned on, but there is no change in the display screen of screen display area 32 (scene 17).

[0071] This means that the input originates from the second control unit P2, which is the valid control unit (Yes in ST23), the input is not a restricted input (No in ST24), another first control unit P1 is invalid, and the status indicator lamp 15 is off (Yes in ST25). Therefore, the processing unit 27 brings another first control unit P1 into a valid state to turn on the status indicator lamp 15 (ST26), and the processing of the received input to return to the home screen without controlling the working unit U is carried out (ST27). Since the first control unit P1 is valid, screen A1 is synchronously displayed in screen display area 32 of the second control unit P2 (Scene 18).

[0072] In Fig. 10. If the sub-function A2 is subsequently selected by the first control unit P1, the operating information of the sub-function A2 is transmitted from the first control unit P1, the screen A2 is displayed in screen display area 32 of the first control unit P1, and the screen A2 is displayed synchronously in screen display area 32 of the second control unit P2 (Scene 19).

[0073] As described above, the two-stage / two-headed component assembly device 1 of the present embodiment comprises a first substrate conveyor L1 that conveys a substrate 3, a second substrate conveyor L2 that conveys a substrate 3, a first component feed section S1 comprising the plurality of component feed units 4, a second component feed section S2 comprising the plurality of component feed units 4, a first working unit U1 comprising a first working head H1 and a first working head movement mechanism F1, a second working unit U2 comprising a second working head H2 and a second working head movement mechanism F2, a first operating unit P1 comprising the input unit (touchscreen 13) and the display (monitor 14) that can communicate with the controller 20, and a second operating unit P2 comprising the input unit and the display that can communicate with the controller 20.

[0074] Additionally, the component assembly device 1 comprises a controller 20 capable of controlling the first work unit U1 and the second work unit U2 in a variety of operating modes to perform the component assembly work; an operator mode setting unit 26 that sets the operator mode to restrict the operations performed by the first operator unit P1 and the second operator unit P2 based on the operating mode; and a processing unit 27 that processes the inputs from the first operator unit P1 and the second operator unit P2 based on the operator mode setting unit 26. This allows the variety of work units U (first work unit U1 and second work unit U2) to be operated appropriately by the variety of operator units P (first operator unit P1 and second operator unit P2).

[0075] Next, the setting of the operating mode by the operating mode setting unit in the four-stage / four-head component assembly device 100 and the input processing by the processing unit are described with reference to Fig. 11 described. In the following, sections similar to component assembly device 1 are designated with the same reference numerals, and detailed descriptions are omitted.

[0076] In Fig. The component assembly device 100 comprises a first substrate conveyor L1 on the front side and a second substrate conveyor L2 on the rear side. Furthermore, the component assembly device 100 comprises a first component feed section S1 with a plurality of component feed units 4 on the upstream front side and a second component feed section S2 with a plurality of component feed units 4 on the upstream rear side. The component assembly device 100 also comprises a third component feed section S3 with the plurality of component feed units 4 on the downstream front side and a fourth component feed section S4 with the plurality of component feed units 4 on the downstream rear side.

[0077] The component assembly device 100 comprises a first working unit U1 with a first working head H1 and a first working head movement mechanism F1 on the upstream front side, and a second working unit U2 with a second working head H2 and a second working head movement mechanism F2 on the upstream rear side. Furthermore, the component assembly device 100 comprises a third working unit U3 with a third working head H3 and a third working head movement mechanism F3 on the downstream front side, and a fourth working unit U4 with a fourth working head H4 and a fourth working head movement mechanism F4 on the downstream rear side. Additionally, the component assembly device 100 comprises a first operating unit P1 on the front side and a second operating unit P2 on the rear side.

[0078] In Fig. The control unit of the component assembly device 100 can control the work units U (first work unit U1, second work unit U2, third work unit U4, and fourth work unit U4) in a variety of operating modes to perform the component assembly work. Additionally, the operating mode setting unit of the component assembly device 100 sets the operating mode to restrict the operations by the operating units P (first operating unit P1 and second operating unit P2) based on the operating mode. Furthermore, the processing unit of the component assembly device 100 processes the input from the operating unit P based on the operating mode set by the operating mode setting unit 26.

[0079] Next, the cooperation mode in the four-stage / four-person component assembly device 100 will be described with reference to Fig. 11(a) described. In cooperation mode, the component picked up by the first work head H1 from the component feeder 4 of the first component feeder section S1 is mounted on the substrate 3A, which has been conveyed to the upstream side by the first substrate conveyor L1 (arrow d1). Simultaneously, the second work head H2 mounts the component picked up by the component feeder 4 of the second component feeder section S2 onto the substrate 3A (arrow d1). The component mounting work (arrow d1) on substrate 3A by the first work head H1 and the component mounting work (arrow d1) on substrate 3A by the second work head H2 are performed alternately.

[0080] Furthermore, in this cooperative mode, the component picked up by the third work head H3 from component feeder unit 4 of the third component feed section S3 is mounted onto substrate 3B, which has been conveyed to the downstream side by the second substrate conveyor L2 (arrow e1). Additionally, the fourth work head H4 mounts the component picked up by component feeder unit 4 of the fourth component feed section S4 onto substrate 3B (arrow e2). The component mounting work (arrow e1) on substrate 3B by the third work head H3 and the component mounting work (arrow e2) on substrate 3B by the fourth work head H4 are performed alternately.

[0081] As described above, the control of the four-stage / four-person component assembly device 100 in cooperation mode causes the first work unit U1 and the second work unit U2 to perform the component assembly work together on the substrate 3A of the first substrate conveyor L1 (arrow d1 and arrow d2), and causes the third work unit U3 and the fourth work unit U4 to perform the component assembly work together on the substrate 3B of the second substrate conveyor L2 (arrow e1 and arrow e2).

[0082] Next, the independent mode in the four-stage / four-head component assembly device 100 will be described with reference to Fig.11(b) described. In independent mode, the component picked up by the first working head H1 from the component feeder 4 of the first component feeder section S1 is mounted on the substrate 3A, which was conveyed to the upstream side by the first substrate conveyor L1 (arrow f1). Additionally, the component picked up by the second working head H2 from the component feeder 4 of the second component feeder section S2 is mounted on the substrate 3B, which was conveyed to the upstream side by the second substrate conveyor L2 (arrow f2).

[0083] Additionally, the component picked up by the third work head H3 from the component feeder 4 of the third component feeder section S3 is mounted onto substrate 3C, which was conveyed downstream by the first substrate conveyor L1 (arrow f3). Furthermore, the component picked up by the fourth work head H4 from the component feeder 4 of the fourth component feeder section S4 is mounted onto substrate 3D, which was conveyed downstream by the second substrate conveyor L2 (arrow f4).

[0084] The component assembly work (arrow f1) on substrate 3A by the first working head H1, the component assembly work (arrow f2) on substrate 3B by the second working head H2, the component assembly work (arrow f3) on substrate 3C by the third working head H3 and the component assembly work (arrow f4) on substrate 3D by the fourth working head H4 are performed independently of each other.

[0085] As described above, the control of the four-stage / four-head component assembly device 100 in independent mode causes the first work unit U1 and the third work unit U3 to perform the component assembly work on the substrates 3A and 3C of the first substrate conveyor L1 (arrow f1 and arrow f3), and causes the second work unit U2 and the fourth work unit U4 to perform the component assembly work on the substrates 3B and 3D of the second substrate conveyor L2 (arrow f2 and arrow f4).

[0086] In a case where the operating mode is the independent mode, the operator mode setting unit of the four-stage / four-head component assembly device 100 sets the operator mode to the first operator mode, in which the operations of the first work unit U1 and the third work unit U3 are received by the first operator unit P1 and the operations of the second work unit U2 and the fourth work unit U4 are received by the second operator unit P2; and in a case where the operating mode is the cooperation mode, the operator mode setting unit sets the operator mode to the second operator mode, in which the operations of the first work unit U1, the second work unit U2, the third work unit U3 and the fourth work unit U4 are received by any valid operator unit P of the first operator unit P1 or the second operator unit P2.

[0087] In a case where the operating mode is the first operating mode, the processing unit of the four-stage / four-head component assembly device 100 receives from the first operating unit P1 a processing input that includes the control of the first work unit U1 and the third work unit U3, and a processing input that does not include the control of all work units U, and receives from the second operating unit P2 an input for processing that includes the control of the second work unit U2 and the fourth work unit U4, and an input for processing that does not include the control of all work units U.

[0088] In a case where the operating mode is the second operating mode, the processing unit of the four-stage / four-head component assembly device 100 does not receive an input from the first operating unit P1 for a process that includes control of all work units U, and receives the input of the process that does not include control of all work units U from the first operating unit P1 if the first operating unit P1 is invalid, and does not receive the input of the process that includes control of all work units U from the second operating unit P2, and receives an input of the process that does not include control of all work units U from the second operating unit P2 if the second operating unit P2 is invalid.

[0089] In a case where the operating mode is the second operating mode, the processing unit of the four-stage / four-head component assembly device 100 receives from the first operating unit P1 a processing input that includes the control of all working units U, and a processing input that does not include the control of all working units U, when the first operating unit P1 is valid, and receives from the second operating unit P2 an input for processing that includes the control of all working units U, and an input for processing that does not include the control of all working units U, when the second operating unit P2 is valid.
