Description

[Technical field]

[0001] Disclosed herein are leaf spring members, mounting modules, and mounting-related devices. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, a mounting device has been proposed in which, for example, a plurality of mounting modules are arranged on a base at intervals, and the mounting modules are linked together using an abutment-type linking device including abutment members provided on the upper ends of the mutually facing surfaces of the rear column parts of each main body frame of the mounting modules (see, for example, Patent Document 1, etc.). With this device, it is possible to reduce vibration without reducing work efficiency and without making the base large and expensive. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2007-329208 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, although the above-mentioned Patent Document 1 can reduce vibration, the smoothness of sliding each mounting module is low, and further improvement is required.

[Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In this disclosure, the following means are taken to achieve the above-mentioned main object.

[0007] The leaf spring member of the present disclosure comprises: A leaf spring member is provided between a plurality of mounting-related devices, including a mounting device that mounts components on a processing object, arranged on a base and configured to be slidable on the base, the leaf spring member comprising: a fixing portion that is fixed to a housing of the mounting-related device and that is configured to be slidable on the base; a first section connected to the fixed section, having a first tapered surface and a second tapered surface inclined in a sliding direction of the housing on the base, and having a spring section formed in a convex shape with respect to the housing and bending in contact with a member of the adjacent housing; It is equipped with the following:

[0008] This leaf spring member has a first tapered surface and a second tapered surface, and a spring portion formed in a first portion is fixed to the housing of the mounting-related device by a fixing portion that connects to the first portion. The leaf spring member supports the adjacent housing via the spring portion. Therefore, the leaf spring member of the present disclosure has a relatively simple configuration and can smoothly slide the housing of the mounting-related device and further suppress vibration of the housing.

[0010] The present embodiment will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic explanatory diagram showing an example of a mounting system 10 according to the present disclosure. FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a leaf spring member 30 disposed in a housing 17. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the leaf spring member 30, with FIG. 3A showing the front side and FIG. 3B showing the back side. FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view of the leaf spring member 30. In this embodiment, the left-right direction (X-axis), front-rear direction (Y-axis), and up-down direction (Z-axis) are as shown in FIG. 1.

[0011] The mounting system 10 is configured as a production line in which mounting devices 11 that mount components P on a substrate S as an object to be processed are arranged in the transport direction of the substrate S. Here, the object to be processed is described as a substrate S, but is not particularly limited as long as the object to be processed is a substrate S on which components P are mounted, and may be a three-dimensional base material. As shown in FIG. 1, the mounting system 10 includes a printing device 11, a print inspection device 12, a mounting device 13, a mounting inspection device 14, and a management PC 15. The printing device 11, the print inspection device 12, the mounting device 13, and the mounting inspection device 14 correspond to mounting-related devices. In addition to these, the mounting-related devices include a storage device that stores a feeder that supplies components, a transport device for the object to be processed, and a reflow device that performs reflow processing. The mounting-related device includes a base 16 and a mounting module 20 that includes a housing 17 that is slidably arranged on the base 16 in a sliding direction D. The mounting module 20 is pulled out to the front side of the device during internal work such as inspection (see the lower part of FIG. 1).

[0012] The printing device 11 is a device that prints a viscous fluid such as solder paste on the board S. The print inspection device 12 is a device that inspects the state of the printed solder. The mounting device 13 is a device that mounts components P on the board S. The mounting inspection device 14 is a device that inspects the state of the components P mounted by the mounting device 13. The management PC 15 is configured as a server that manages information on each device of the mounting system 10. For example, the mounting device 13 as a mounting-related device includes a board processing unit 21, a component supply unit 22, a control device 23, and a mounting unit 24 in a mounting module 20. The board processing unit 21 is a unit that carries in, transports, fixes at a mounting position, and carries out the board S. The component supply unit 22 is a unit that supplies components P to the mounting unit 20, and includes a feeder and a tray unit. The control device 23 is a computer that controls the entire device and is centered around a CPU. The mounting section 24 is a unit that mounts components on a board, and includes a head moving section 25, a mounting head 26, and a collection member 27. The head moving section 25 moves the mounting head 26 back and forth and left and right. The collection member 27 is removably attached to the mounting head 26, and the components are collected by the collection member 27. The collection member 27 may be, for example, a nozzle that sucks and collects the components using negative pressure, or a mechanical chuck that grips and collects the components.

[0013] As shown in FIG. 2, a leaf spring member 30 is disposed in the housing 17 of the mounting module 20. The leaf spring member 30 is a member used between the mounting modules 20 configured to be slidable on the base 16. When the housings 17 of the adjacent mounting modules 20 are fixed on the base 16, the leaf spring member 30 is fixed at a position facing the leaf spring member 30 fixed to the adjacent housing 17. The mounting modules 20 support each other via the leaf spring member 30 to suppress vibrations. As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the leaf spring member 30 has a first member 31 and a second member 32. The leaf spring member 30 has a structure in which the first member 31 and the second member 32 overlap each other, and are joined at the fixing portion 33 and the fixing portion 34.

[0014] The first member 31 includes a fixing portion 33 and a first portion 35. The first member 31 is a plate-like body formed into a substantially L-shape by bending a metal plate stamped out into a T-shape, as shown in Fig. 4. The second member 32 includes a fixing portion 34 and a second portion 36. The second member 32 is a plate-like body formed into a substantially L-shape by bending a metal plate stamped out into a substantially rectangular shape.

[0015] The fixing portion 33 is a plate-like portion fixed to the housing 17 of the mounting module 20 configured to be slidable on the base 16. The fixing portion 33 has notched fixing grooves 56 formed in two locations on its end side. The leaf spring member 30 is fixed to the front side or rear side of the housing 17 by inserting screws into the fixing grooves 56 and fastening with the screws. Since the first member 31 is located outside the second member 32, the fixing portion 33 is fixed to the housing 17 via the fixing portion 34 (see FIG. 2).

[0016] The first portion 35 is formed in a direction perpendicular to the fixed portion 33 and is disposed on the side surface of the housing 17. The first portion 35 has a spring portion 37 formed with a width L1 narrower than that of the fixed portion 33. The spring portion 37 is connected to the fixed portion 33 and has a first tapered surface 41 and a second tapered surface 42 inclined in the sliding direction D of the housing 17 on the base 16, and is formed in a convex shape with respect to the housing 17. The spring portion 37 is a leaf spring that bends by contacting an adjacent member on the housing 17 side, for example, a leaf spring member 30. The spring portion 37 has a width narrower than the support surface 47 of the second portion 36 and has a first tapered surface 41 extended from the fixed portion 33, a flat surface 43 approximately parallel to the side surface of the housing 17, and a second tapered surface 42 formed from the flat surface 43 toward the free end 44 side. The first tapered surface 41 and the second tapered surface 42 are surfaces that form an acute angle with respect to the side surface of the housing 17. Since the first tapered surface 41 of the spring portion 37 is inclined from the most protruding flat surface 43 toward the fixed portion 33, and the second tapered surface 42 is inclined from the flat surface 43 toward the free end 44, when the spring portion 37 comes into contact with an adjacent member and bends, the housing 17 slides smoothly in either direction in the sliding direction D.

[0017] The fixing portion 34 is a plate-like portion fixed to the housing 17 of the mounting module 20 configured to be slidable on the base 16. The fixing portion 34 may have an area equal to or greater than that of the fixing portion 33. The fixing portion 34 has notched fixing grooves 56 formed in two locations on its end side. The leaf spring member 30 is fixed to the front side or rear side of the housing 17 by inserting screws into the fixing grooves 56 and fastening them with the screws.

[0018] The second portion 36 is disposed between the first portion 35 and the housing 17, and is a portion that supports the spring portion 37 with a support surface 47 when the spring portion 37 is deflected. The second portion 36 has a separation surface 45, a proximity surface 46, a support surface 47, and a protective portion 50. The separation surface 45 is a surface that is formed along the first tapered surface 41 in a direction away from the housing 17. The proximity surface 46 is a surface that is connected to the separation surface 45 and is formed in a direction from the first tapered surface 41 toward the housing 17. The support surface 47 is a surface that is connected to the proximity surface 46, is formed parallel to the housing 17, and supports the spring portion 37. The support surface 47 is formed with a width larger than the width L1 of the spring portion 37, and in the second portion 36, when the spring portion 37 flexes, the free end 44 of the spring portion 37 slides on the support surface 47, and this free end 44 contacts the support surface 47 to support the spring portion 37. The second portion 36 has protruding portions on both sides of the protective portion 50 formed on the central tip side, and fixing holes 57 are formed in these portions. The leaf spring member 30 is fixed to the side surface of the housing 17 by inserting screws into the fixing holes 57 and fastening them with the screws.

[0019] The protective portion 50 is a portion that protects the spring portion 37 provided at the tip of the first portion 35, and is a portion formed in a convex shape with respect to the housing 17 at the tip of the free end 44 of the spring portion 37 and at the tip 48 side of the second portion 36. The protective portion 50 has a third tapered surface 51, a parallel surface 52, a fourth tapered surface 53, and a free end 54. The third tapered surface 51 is formed on the free end 44 side of the spring portion 37 and is a surface that is inclined toward the free end 44 side in the sliding direction D of the housing 17 on the base 16. The parallel surface 52 is extended and connected to the third tapered surface 51, and is a surface that is approximately parallel to the side surface of the housing 17. This parallel surface 52 is located at a higher position than the free end 44 of the spring portion 37 when the support surface 47 is used as a reference. The fourth tapered surface 53 is extended and connected to the parallel surface 52 and is a surface that is inclined toward the free end 54 side in the sliding direction D. The protective portion 50 is a portion formed in a convex shape with respect to the housing 17, with a width L2 wider than the width L1 of the spring portion 37. The third tapered surface 51 and the fourth tapered surface 53 are surfaces that form an acute angle with respect to the side surface of the housing 17. As shown by the dashed line in Figs. 2 and 3, the protective portion 50 is formed such that a free end 54, which is the tip of the fourth tapered surface 53, protrudes beyond the tip 48 of the second portion 36. Moreover, as shown by the dotted line in the blow-out diagram of Fig. 2, the protective portion 50 is formed such that the free end 54 is closer to the housing 17 side than the support surface 47, i.e., at a lower position.

[0020] The elastic member 38 is a member disposed on the back side of the support surface 47 between the second portion 36 and the housing 17. The elastic member 38 is a member that absorbs vibrations generated from the device and further suppresses the transmission of vibrations to adjacent devices. The elastic member 38 further suppresses the transmission of vibrations, thereby further suppressing the deterioration of the processing accuracy of the device. The elastic member 38 is preferably disposed on the back side of the region of the support surface 47 with which the free end 44 of the spring portion 37 comes into contact. Examples of the elastic member 38 include rubber and sponge, and among these, rubber is preferable.

[0021] Next, the operation of the leaf spring member 30 of this embodiment configured as described above, particularly the operation of the mounting module 20 sliding in the sliding direction D will be described. FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram of an example of the operation of adjacent leaf spring members 30, in which FIG. 5A is a perspective view of the leaf spring members 30 in contact with each other, and FIG. 5B is a perspective view of the spring parts 37 in contact with each other. FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the case 17 being slid, in which FIG. 6A is a view of the case in the middle of sliding, and FIG. 6B is a view of the case placed on the base 16. Here, the movement of the mounting module 20 from a pulled-out state to being returned to the base 16 will be described. As shown in FIG. 6A, when the case 17 is moved backward, the spring parts 37 of the adjacent leaf spring members 30 abut against the free ends 54 of the protective parts 50, and then move while sliding on the surface of the protective parts 50. In the leaf spring member 30, the adjacent spring portion 37 moves while being pushed up by the protective portion 50, so that the free end 44 of the spring portion 37 is unlikely to get caught by the adjacent member. Furthermore, when the housing 17 is slid, in the leaf spring member 30, the second tapered surface 42 of the spring portion 37 comes into contact with the first tapered surface 41 of the adjacent spring portion 37, the spring portions 37 press against each other, and the housing 17 moves while sliding on this surface. Then, when the housing 17 is settled in a fixed position on the upper part of the base 16, as shown in FIG. 6B, the spring portions 37 support each other in a bent state, and the housing 17 is fixed. In the mounting module 20, for example, if there is a clearance (for example, 2 mm) between the adjacent housings 17, the bending of the spring portions 37 fills this clearance, and the pressing force of the leaf spring member 30 settles each housing 17 in a neutral position.

[0022] Here, the correspondence between the components of this embodiment and the components of this disclosure will be clarified. The printing device 11, the print inspection device 12, the mounting device 13, and the mounting inspection device 14 of this embodiment correspond to the mounting-related devices of this disclosure, and the mounting module 20 corresponds to the mounting module. In addition, the leaf spring member 30 corresponds to the leaf spring member, the fixing portion 33 and the fixing portion 34 correspond to the fixing portion, the first portion 35 corresponds to the first portion, the second portion 36 corresponds to the second portion, the spring portion 37 corresponds to the spring portion, and the protective portion 50 corresponds to the protective portion.

[0023] The leaf spring member 30 of the present embodiment described above is used between a plurality of mounting-related devices, including a mounting device 13 that mounts components on a processing object, arranged on the pedestal 16 and configured to be slidable on the pedestal 16. The leaf spring member includes fixed parts 33, 34 fixed to the housing 17 of the mounting-related device configured to be slidable on the pedestal 16, and a first portion 35 having a spring part 37 formed in a convex shape relative to the housing 17 and contacting and bending with a member on the adjacent housing 17 side, the first portion 35 having a first tapered surface 41 and a second tapered surface 42 connected to the fixed parts 33, 34 and inclined in the sliding direction D of the housing 17 on the pedestal 16. The leaf spring member 30 is fixed to the housing 17 of the mounting-related device by a fixed part 33 to which the spring part 37 formed in the first portion 35, which has the first tapered surface 41 and the second tapered surface 42, is connected to the first portion 35. The leaf spring member 30 supports the adjacent housings via the spring portions 37. Therefore, the leaf spring member of the present disclosure can smoothly slide the housings of the mounting-related devices and further suppress the vibration of the housings with a relatively simple configuration. Furthermore, since the spring portions 37 of the leaf spring member 30 bend relative to each other, when there is a clearance between the housings 17, the leaf spring member 30 can fill the gap, and the housings 17 are fixed more reliably.

[0024] The leaf spring member 30 further includes a second portion 36 that is disposed between the first portion 35 and the housing 17 and supports the spring portion 37 on a support surface 47 when the spring portion 37 is bent, and an elastic member 38 that is disposed between the second portion 36 and the housing 17 on the back side of the support surface 47. The leaf spring member 30 supports the adjacent housing 17 via the spring portion 37 and the elastic member 38. Therefore, the leaf spring member 30 can support the pressing force of the spring portion 37 on the support surface 47 and the elastic member 38 with a relatively simple configuration, and can further suppress vibration of the housing 17. Furthermore, the first portion 35 is formed of the first plate member 31, and the second portion 36 is formed of the second plate member 32 that is overlapped and fixed to the first plate member 31. Since this leaf spring member 30 has a structure in which the first plate member 31 and the second plate member 32 are stacked, the stacked structure of the first portion 35 and the second portion 36 can be realized relatively easily compared to forming them integrally. Furthermore, the first portion 35 and the second portion 36 are formed in a direction perpendicular to the fixing portions 33, 34 and disposed on the side surface of the housing 17, and the fixing portions 33, 34 are disposed on the front side or rear side of the housing 17. Since this leaf spring member 30 allows the spring portion 37 to be positioned closer to the end portion of the side surface of the housing 17 compared to a leaf spring member in which the fixing portions 33, 34 are formed along the first portion 35 and the second portion 36, vibration of the housing 17 can be more easily suppressed.

[0025] Moreover, the spring portion 37 has a width L1 narrower than the support surface 47 of the second portion 36, and has a first tapered surface 41 extended from the fixed portion 33, a flat surface 43 parallel to the housing 17, and a second tapered surface 42 formed from the flat surface 43 toward the free end 44. This leaf spring member 30 easily supports the spring portion 37 with the support surface 47. Furthermore, the first tapered surface 41 and the second tapered surface 42 allow smooth contact with the member of the adjacent housing 17 (e.g., the leaf spring member 30) when the housing 17 is slid. Furthermore, since the flat surface 43 can increase the contact area, when the housing 17 is fixed on the base 16, vibrations with the adjacent housing 17 can be smoothly absorbed. Furthermore, the second portion 36 has a separating surface 45 formed along the first tapered surface 41 in a direction away from the housing 17, a proximity surface 46 connected to the separating surface 45 and formed in a direction approaching the housing 17 from the first tapered surface 41, and a support surface 47 connected to the proximity surface 46 and formed parallel to the housing 17 to support the spring portion 37. In this leaf spring member 30, a space can be provided between the housing 17 and the second portion 36, so that it is easy to arrange the elastic member 38 on the back side of the support surface 47.

[0026] The second portion 36 has a third tapered surface 51 inclined in the sliding direction of the housing 17 on the base 16, a parallel surface 52 connected to the third tapered surface 51 and parallel to the side surface of the housing 17, and a fourth tapered surface 53 connected to the parallel surface 52 and inclined in the sliding direction D at the tip side of the spring portion 37, and has a protective portion 50 formed in a convex shape with respect to the housing 17 with a width L2 wider than the width L1 of the spring portion 37, a free end 54 at the tip of the fourth tapered surface 53 protruding from the tip 48 of the second portion 36, and the free end 54 formed on the housing 17 side rather than the support surface 47. In this leaf spring member 30, the members of the adjacent housing 17 reach the spring portion 37 after passing through the protective member 50, so that the spring portion 37 can be more protected. The protective member 50 is also wider than the spring portion 37, so that it is easy to protect the spring member 37. In addition, the free end 54 of the protective member 50 protrudes beyond the tip 48 of the second portion 36 and extends from the support surface 47 toward the housing 17 and above the second portion 36, thereby further preventing members of the adjacent housing from getting between the second portion 36 and the housing 17 when sliding.

[0027] The mounting module 20 includes a housing 17 configured to be slidable on the pedestal 16, in which a plurality of mounting-related devices, including a mounting device that mounts components on a processing object, are arranged on the pedestal 16, and includes a leaf spring member 30 fixed to the housing 17. Since the mounting module 20 includes the leaf spring member 30, the vibration of the housing 17 of the mounting-related device can be further suppressed by a relatively simple configuration. Furthermore, when the housing 17 is fixed on the pedestal 16, the leaf spring member 30 is fixed at a position facing the leaf spring member 30 fixed to the adjacent housing 17. Since the leaf spring members 30 support the housings 17 of the mounting module 20, the vibration of the housing 17 can be further suppressed. Furthermore, since the mounting-related device of the mounting system 10 includes the mounting module 20 described above, the vibration of the housing 17 of the mounting-related device can be further suppressed by a relatively simple configuration.

[0028] It goes without saying that the present disclosure is in no way limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be embodied in various forms as long as it falls within the technical scope of the present disclosure.

[0029] For example, in the above embodiment, the leaf spring member 30 has been described as including the second portion 36 and the elastic member 38, but this is not particularly limited, and the second portion 36 and the elastic member 38 may be omitted. This leaf spring member 30 has a spring portion 37, and with a relatively simple configuration, it is possible to smoothly slide the housing of the mounting-related device and further suppress vibration of the housing.

[0030] In the above-described embodiment, the fixing portions 33, 34, the first portion 35, and the second portion 36 are formed by the first member 31 and the second member 32, but this is not particularly limited, and these portions may be integrally molded. With this leaf spring member 30, the manufacturing process becomes more complicated, but it is possible to smoothly slide the housing 17 of the mounting-related device and to further suppress vibration of the housing 17.

[0031] In the above-described embodiment, the leaf spring member 30 is described as being disposed on the front side of the housing 17, but this is not limited to this, and the leaf spring member 30 may be disposed only on the rear side of the housing 17, or may be disposed on both the front and rear sides of the housing 17.

[0032] In the above-described embodiment, the first portion 35 is formed in a direction perpendicular to the fixed portion 33, but this is not particularly limited, and the first portion 35 may be formed in a direction along the fixed portion 33, and the fixed portion 33 and the first portion 35 may be fixed to the side surface of the housing 17. In this leaf spring member 30, since the fixed portion 33 is fixed to the side surface of the housing 17, it is difficult to position the spring portion 37 closer to the end of the housing 17, but other effects can be achieved.

[0033] In the above-described embodiment, the spring portion 37 has the flat surface 43, but this is not particularly limited, and the spring portion 37 may not have the flat surface 43. If the leaf spring member 30 has the first tapered surface 41 and the second tapered surface 42, the leaf spring member 30 can move smoothly relative to each other when the housing 17 moves in the sliding direction D. Note that it is preferable that the spring portion 37 has the flat surface 43, since this makes it easier to fix the housings 17 to each other at the fixing position of the housings 17 (see FIG. 6B).

[0034] In the above-described embodiment, the second portion 36 has the separating surface 45 and the adjacent surface 46, but this is not particularly limited, and the separating surface 45 and the adjacent surface 46 may be omitted. This leaf spring member 30 also has a relatively simple configuration, which allows the housing 17 of the mounting-related device to slide smoothly and further suppresses vibration of the housing 17. Note that forming the separating surface 45 and the adjacent surface 46 is preferable because it makes it easier to adjust the clearance between the second portion 36 and the housing 17.

[0035] In the above embodiment, the width L2 of the free end 54 is larger than the width L1 of the free end 44 of the spring portion 37, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the width L1 and the width L2 may be the same. From the viewpoint of protecting the spring portion 37, it is preferable that the width L2 is large. In the above embodiment, the free end 54 of the protective portion 50 protrudes from the tip 48 of the second portion 36, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the free end 54 may not protrude from the tip 48. From the viewpoint of protecting the spring portion 37, it is preferable that the free end 54 protrudes from the tip 48. Alternatively, the free end 54 is described as being formed closer to the housing 17 than the support surface 47, that is, at a position lower than the support surface 47, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the free end 54 may be higher than the support surface 47. From the viewpoint of protecting the spring portion 37, it is preferable that the free end 54 is at a position lower than the support surface 47.

[0036] In the above-described embodiment, the protective portion 50 is provided on the tip side of the second portion 36, but this is not particularly limited, and the protective portion 50 may not be provided. In this leaf spring member 30, the protection of the spring portion 37 is inferior, but the relatively simple configuration allows the housing of the mounting-related device to slide smoothly and further suppresses vibration of the housing. [Industrial Applicability]
