Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The technology disclosed in this specification relates to a component mounter and an abnormality determination method. [Background technology]

[0002] There is known a component mounter that uses an imaging device to capture images of the components in the tray before the components stored in the tray are picked up by the nozzle of the mounting head, and inspects the orientation of the components in the tray. For example, in the component mounter disclosed in JP2019-114743A, events that trigger component orientation inspection (e.g., changeover of setup or replacement of component supply device, etc.) are registered in advance, and orientation inspection is performed when the event occurs. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0003] In JP 2019-114743 A, each time an abnormality is detected in a direction inspection, the abnormality is notified to the worker. For example, for a plurality of parts stored in a certain tray, even if an abnormality occurs only in the posture of a specific part that was the subject of a direction inspection and the postures of the other parts are normal, the abnormality is notified to the worker. For this reason, in the technology of JP 2019-114743 A, the worker may be required to take unnecessary measures, which may reduce production efficiency. This specification provides a technology that can appropriately determine an abnormality regarding the supply of parts supplied from a part supply device. [Means for solving the problem]

[0004] The component mounter disclosed in this specification mounts components on a board. The component mounter includes a component supply device that supplies components using a tray that stores a plurality of the components on its upper surface, an imaging device that sequentially images the plurality of components supplied from the component supply device, a determination unit that determines whether the posture of the components supplied from the component supply device is normal or not based on the images captured by the imaging device, and a determination unit that determines that an abnormality has occurred in the component mounter when a proportion of the images of the plurality of components captured consecutively a first number of times by the imaging device that are determined by the determination unit to be abnormal is equal to or greater than a predetermined proportion.

[0005] In the component mounter, first, it is determined whether the postures of the multiple components supplied from the component supply device are normal or not based on the images captured by the imaging device. Then, when the ratio of the images of the multiple components captured a first number of times in succession that are determined to be abnormal is equal to or greater than a predetermined ratio, it is determined that an abnormality has occurred in the component mounter. In this way, when it is determined that the posture of a certain component is abnormal, the component mounter does not determine whether an abnormality has occurred in the supply of the components, but determines whether the abnormality has occurred according to the ratio of the images captured in succession that are determined to be abnormal. That is, in this component mounter, after determining whether the postures of the multiple components are normal or not, it determines whether an abnormality has actually occurred. Therefore, when an abnormality occurs only in the posture of a specific component, it is not determined to be abnormal, and an abnormality in the supply of the components can be appropriately determined.

[0006] This specification also discloses an abnormality determination method for a component mounter equipped with a component supply device that supplies a plurality of components by a tray that stores the components on its upper surface. The abnormality determination method includes an imaging step of sequentially capturing images of the plurality of components supplied from the component supply device, a determination step of determining whether or not the posture of the components supplied from the component supply device is normal based on the images captured in the imaging step, and a determination step of determining that an abnormality has occurred in the component mounter when a proportion of the images of the plurality of components captured a first number of times consecutively in the imaging step that are determined to be abnormal in the determination step is equal to or greater than a predetermined proportion.

[0008] In one embodiment of the present technology, when the judgment unit determines that an abnormality has occurred in the component mounting machine and detects a second consecutive number of times that the posture of the component determined to be abnormal is a specific posture, the judgment unit may determine that an abnormality has occurred in the supply direction of the component supply device or in the job settings input to the component mounting machine.

[0009] If the posture of the detected component is not normal, but the posture is detected continuously for multiple components, the posture of each component stored in the tray is likely to be correct. In this case, the judgment unit can judge that an abnormality (i.e., an error) has occurred in the supply direction of the component supply device installed by the worker or in the setting of the command (i.e., job) including the production conditions of the board to be produced.

[0010] In one embodiment of the present technology, when the judgment unit determines that an abnormality has occurred in the component mounter, if the judgment unit detects a third consecutive time that the posture of the component that has been determined to be abnormal is not identical to the posture of the component that was previously determined to be abnormal, the judgment unit may determine that an abnormality has occurred in the component supply device, the tray, or the component contained in the tray.

[0011] If the detected posture of a part is not normal and the postures of consecutive parts differ across multiple parts, it may be possible that a mistake was made when placing the parts in the tray or that an abnormality has occurred in the parts themselves. In this case, the determination unit can determine that an abnormality has occurred, such as a poor quality of the part supply device or tray, or a poor quality of the parts placed in the tray.

[0012] In one embodiment of the present technology, when a plurality of first parts are contained in the tray, the judgment unit may judge whether or not the posture of the first parts is normal, and when a plurality of second parts different from the first parts are contained in the tray, the judgment unit may not need to judge whether or not the posture of the second parts is normal.

[0013] Some of the components mounted on the board may be prone to change their posture on the tray. For this reason, for example, a first component may be set as a component whose posture is prone to change on the tray, and a second component may be set as the other component, so that it is selectively determined whether the posture of only the components whose posture is prone to change is normal or not. Since it is not determined whether the posture of the second component is normal or not, it is possible to improve production efficiency. Note that the second component may be a component different from the first component, and the second component may include multiple types of components.

[0014] In one embodiment of the present technology, the first part may be a part smaller than a predetermined size.

[0015] Since the orientation of a relatively small component on a tray is easily changed, it is useful to determine whether the orientation of a component smaller than a predetermined size is normal.

[0016] (Example) Hereinafter, a component mounter 10 according to an embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. The component mounter 10 is a device that mounts components 4 on a board 2. The component mounter 10 is also called a component mounting device or a chip mounter. Usually, the component mounter 10 is installed alongside other board work machines such as a solder printer and a board inspection machine, forming a series of mounting lines.

[0017] As shown in FIG. 1, the component mounter 10 includes a plurality of component trays 12, a tray supply device 14, a mounting head 16, a moving device 18, a board conveyor 20, an imaging camera 22, a control device 40, and a touch panel 42.

[0018] Each component tray 12 has a plurality of recesses (not shown) formed, for example, in a matrix on its upper surface, and each recess accommodates a plurality of components 4. The component tray 12 is detachably attached to a tray supply device 14, and supplies the components 4 to a mounting head 16.

[0019] The tray supply device 14 includes a plurality of magazines stacked vertically, and the component trays 12 can be detachably installed in each of the plurality of magazines. The tray supply device 14 supplies the components 4 by sending out the component trays 12 into the component mounter 10. The tray supply device 14 may be fixed to the component mounter 10, or may be detachably attached to the component mounter 10.

[0020] The moving device 18 moves the mounting head 16 and the imaging camera 22 between the component tray 12 sent into the component mounter 10 and the board 2. As an example, the moving device 18 in this embodiment is an XY robot that moves a moving base 18a in the X and Y directions, and the mounting head 16 and the imaging camera 22 are fixed to the moving base 18a. Note that the mounting head 16 is not limited to being fixed to the moving base 18a, and may be detachably attached to the moving base 18a.

[0021] The mounting head 16 has a nozzle 6 that picks up the component 4. The nozzle 6 is detachably attached to the mounting head 16. The mounting head 16 can move the nozzle 6 in the Z direction, and moves the nozzle 6 toward and away from the component tray 12 and the board 2. The nozzle 6 is configured to pick up the component 4. To mount the component 4 on the board 2 by the mounting head 16, first, the tray supply device 14 moves the magazine in which the component tray 12 is installed in the vertical direction, and sends the component tray 12 into the component mounter 10 at the component supply height. Then, the mounting head 16 is positioned at a position to pick up the component 4 stored in the component tray 12, and the nozzle 6 is moved downward until the suction surface of the nozzle 6 abuts against the component 4. Next, the nozzle 6 picks up the component 4, and the mounting head 16 is positioned at a position to mount the component 4 on the board 2. After that, the nozzle 6 is lowered toward the board 2 to mount the component 4 on the board 2.

[0022] The imaging camera 22 is fixed to the movable base 18a and moves integrally with the movable base 18a. The imaging camera 22 is disposed so that its imaging direction faces downward (Z direction) and captures an image of the upper surface of the board 2. For example, a CCD camera is used as the camera. The imaging camera 22 is also moved above the component tray 12 by the movable base 18a and captures an image of the upper surfaces of the multiple components 4 accommodated on the component tray 12. Image data of the image captured by the imaging camera 22 is transmitted to the control device 40.

[0023] The board conveyor 20 is a device that carries in, positions, and carries out the board 2. As an example, the board conveyor 20 in this embodiment has a pair of belt conveyors and a support device (not shown) that supports the board 2 from below.

[0024] The touch panel 42 is a display device that provides various information to the worker, and also a user interface that receives instructions and information from the worker.

[0025] The control device 40 is configured using a computer including a memory 50 and a CPU 60. As shown in Fig. 2, the control device 40 is communicatively connected to the component tray 12, the tray supply device 14, the mounting head 16, the moving device 18, the board conveyor 20, the imaging camera 22, and the touch panel 42. The control device 40 controls each of these units to perform processes such as mounting the components 4 on the board 2.

[0026] The memory 50 is provided with job data 52, a production program 54, and a count table 56. The job data 52 is data describing the production item and production quantity. The job data 52 also describes the supply direction of the component tray 12. The production program 54 is data describing a plurality of components 4 to be mounted on the board 2 and the positions on the board 2 at which each component 4 is to be mounted. The production program 54 can be prepared, for example, for each production item.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 3, the count table 56 registers an imaging count, an image processing result, a consecutive abnormality count, a consecutive same posture abnormality count, and a total abnormality count in association with each other. The imaging count is information indicating the number of times the component 4 has been imaged by the imaging camera 22 (i.e., the number of components imaged). The image processing result is information indicating the result of image processing of image data of the component 4 imaged by the imaging camera 22. Specifically, the image processing result indicates the feed angle of the component 4 that has actually been imaged. The consecutive abnormality count is information indicating the number of times that abnormalities in these postures have been detected consecutively in the components 4 imaged in sequence by the imaging camera 22. The consecutive same posture abnormality count is information indicating the number of times that abnormalities in the same posture have been detected consecutively when abnormalities in the posture of the components 4 have been detected consecutively. The total abnormality count is information indicating the total number of times that abnormalities in the posture of the components 4 have been detected.

[0028] Further, the memory 50 stores an arithmetic program (not shown), and the CPU 60 functions as a determination unit 62 and a judgment unit 64 by executing the arithmetic program.

[0029] The determination unit 62 determines whether or not the posture of the components 4 accommodated in the component tray 12 is normal, based on the job data 52 and the image processing results registered in the count table 56. The determination unit 64 determines whether or not an abnormality has occurred regarding the supply of components 4 (e.g., the posture of the components 4) by the component mounter 10, based on the determination results by the determination unit 62 (specifically, the counts registered in the count table 56). Details of the processes executed by the determination unit 62 and the determination unit 64 will be described later.

[0030] Next, a process for determining whether or not an abnormality has occurred with respect to the supply of components 4 (hereinafter, referred to as abnormality determination process) will be described. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the abnormality determination process. In the following, the description will be continued assuming that the supply angle of components 4 described in the job data 52 (job supply angle in FIG. 3) is 0 degrees as shown in FIG. 3. The process in FIG. 4 is executed when production by the component mounter 10 is started. Note that the process in FIG. 4 is executed for a specific component tray 12, and in a component mounter 10 on which multiple component trays 12 are installed, the process in FIG. 4 may be executed individually for each of the multiple component trays 12.

[0031] First, in S10, the CPU 60 moves the imaging camera 22 to capture an image of the top surface of the component 4 on the component tray 12. Here, the image captured is of the top surface of the component 4 that is to be mounted next.

[0032] In S12, the CPU 60 performs image processing on the captured image data of the component 4 to determine whether the orientation of the component 4 is normal. Here, as shown in FIG. 5(a), the component 4 of this embodiment has a reference mark Mr on its upper surface. For example, if the component 4 has a rectangular shape, the reference mark Mr is provided near a corner of the component 4. FIG. 5(a) shows image data of the component 4 in a state where the feed angle is 0 degrees, and the image data (hereinafter referred to as reference image data) is stored in the memory 50 together with the feed angle (i.e., 0 degrees). When the determination unit 62 determines whether the orientation of the component 4 is normal, first, as shown in FIG. 5(b), the CPU 60 detects the position of the reference mark Md by performing image processing on the image data captured by the imaging camera 22. Then, the actual feed angle is calculated by comparing the detected position of the reference mark Md with the position of the reference mark Mr in the reference image data. In the example shown in FIG. 5(b), the reference mark Md is located at a position rotated 90 degrees from the position of the reference mark Mr in FIG. 5(a), so that the actual feed angle can be calculated to be 90 degrees. The determination unit 62 then determines that the posture of the component 4 is not normal if the calculated supply angle differs from the supply direction of the component tray 12 described in the job data 52 (i.e., the supply angle at which the component 4 should be supplied). If the CPU 60 determines that the posture of the component 4 is not normal (NO in S12), the process proceeds to S14, and if the CPU 60 determines that the posture of the component 4 is normal (YES in S12), the process proceeds to S16.

[0033] When the CPU 60 determines that the posture of the component 4 is not normal (NO in S12), in S14, the CPU 60 counts up a predetermined count and updates the count table 56. With reference to FIG. 3, a case where the imaging count is registered up to "2" will be described. First, the CPU 60 counts up the imaging count by one and registers "3" in the region R1. Next, the CPU 60 registers the image processing result (i.e., the actual supply angle of the component 4) based on the result of the image processing of the image data. Here, as shown in FIG. 5(b), the CPU 60 registers "90 degrees" in the region R2. Next, the CPU 60 counts up the consecutive abnormal count by one and registers "3" in the region R3. Next, the CPU 60 counts up the consecutive same posture abnormal count by one and registers "3" in the region R5 based on the fact that the image processing results of the region R2 and the region R4 (i.e., the supply angle of the previous component 4) are the same. The CPU 60 also counts up the total abnormal count by one and registers "3" in the region R6. After the CPU 60 registers each count and updates the count table 56 as described above, the process proceeds to S18.

[0034] On the other hand, when the CPU 60 determines that the posture of the component 4 is normal, in S16, the CPU 60 resets a predetermined count and updates the count table 56. FIG. 6 shows an example of the count table 56 different from that shown in FIG. 3. With reference to FIG. 6, a case where the imaging count is registered up to "1" will be described. First, the CPU 60 counts up the imaging count by one and registers "2" in the area R7. Next, the CPU 60 registers the image processing result based on the result of the image processing of the image data. Here, since it is determined in S12 that the supply angle of the component 4 is normal (i.e., the same as the supply angle "0 degrees" of the component 4 described in the job data 52), the CPU 60 registers "0 degrees" in the area R8. Next, the CPU 60 resets the consecutive abnormality count and the consecutive same posture abnormality count (i.e., registers "0" in the areas R9 and R10). In addition, the CPU 60 does not change the total abnormality count from the previous value, and registers "1" in the area R11. After registering each count and updating the count table 56 as described above, the CPU 60 proceeds to S18.

[0035] In S18, the CPU 60 judges whether an abnormality occurs in the supply of the components 4 by judging whether the predetermined count number in the count table 56 is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold. Specifically, the CPU 60 judges whether the continuous abnormality count or the continuous same-position abnormality count is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold. The predetermined threshold is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, three times. In the example of the count table 56 shown in FIG. 3, since both the continuous abnormality count (area R3) and the continuous same-position abnormality count (area R5) corresponding to the imaging count "3" updated in S14 are "3", the CPU 60 judges that the predetermined count number is equal to or greater than the threshold (YES in S18) and proceeds to S22. In the example of the count table 56 shown in FIG. 6, both the continuous abnormality count (area R9) and the continuous same-position abnormality count (area R10) corresponding to the imaging count "2" updated in S16 are "0", the CPU 60 judges that the predetermined count number is less than the threshold (NO in S18) and proceeds to S20.

[0036] In S20, the CPU 60 causes the nozzle 6 to pick up the component 4 that is the target of the abnormality determination process and mounts it on the board 2. Once the CPU 60 has mounted the component 4, the process returns to S10 and again executes the process of FIG.

[0037] In S22, the CPU 60 judges the type of abnormality occurring in the supply of the components 4. Specifically, in S18, the CPU 60 judges the type of abnormality depending on which count is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold. In the example shown in FIG. 3, the consecutive same-position abnormality count is equal to or greater than a threshold (i.e., 3 times). That is, in the example shown in FIG. 3, the supply angle of the detected components 4 is not normal, but the supply angle (i.e., 90 degrees) is detected continuously for a plurality of components 4. In this case, the posture of each component 4 accommodated in the component tray 12 is likely to be correct. For this reason, the CPU 60 judges that an error has occurred in the supply direction (i.e., the insertion direction) of the component tray 12 to the magazine of the tray supply device 14 by the worker or the supply direction of the component tray 12 described in the job data 52.

[0038] In the example shown in FIG. 6, the consecutive same-position abnormality count corresponding to the imaging count "5" is below the threshold, while the consecutive abnormality count is equal to or greater than the threshold (i.e., 3 times). That is, the supply angle of the detected components 4 is not normal, and the postures of consecutive previous and next components 4 are different across multiple components 4 as shown in region R11. This situation may occur when an operator places components 4 on the component tray 12 in the wrong orientation, or when there is a problem with the components 4 placed on the component tray 12 or with the operation of the tray supply device 14. For this reason, the CPU 60 determines that there is a quality defect (e.g., distortion, chipping, etc.) of the component tray 12, a quality defect of the components 4 placed on the component tray 12, or an abnormality in the tray supply device 14.

[0039] Thereafter, in S24, the CPU 60 notifies the content of the abnormality determined in S22. For example, the CPU 60 displays the content of the abnormality on the touch panel 42. Here, for example, the content of the abnormality may be notified to an external device (not shown) connected to the control device 40 of the component mounter 10. After executing S24, the CPU 60 ends the series of processes.

[0040] In the component mounter 10 of this embodiment, first, based on the image captured by the imaging camera 22, it is determined whether the supply angles of the multiple components 4 supplied from the component tray 12 are normal or not (S12). Then, when the continuous abnormal count or the continuous same posture abnormal count is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold (YES in S18), it is determined that an abnormality has occurred in the supply of the components 4. In this way, when the component mounter 10 determines that the posture of a certain component 4 is not normal (YES in S12), it does not determine whether an abnormality has occurred in the supply of the components 4, but determines that the abnormality has occurred when a specific count is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold. That is, in this component mounter 10, after determining whether the supply angles of the multiple components 4 are normal or not (S12), it is determined whether an abnormality has actually occurred in the supply of the components 4 (S18). Therefore, it is possible to appropriately determine an abnormality in the supply of the components 4 supplied from the component tray 12. Furthermore, in the component mounter 10 of this embodiment, it is possible to identify which part of the component mounter 10 is experiencing an abnormality, based on the posture (supply angle) of each of the components 4 that are successively detected.

[0041] (Correspondence) The parts tray 12 and the tray supply device 14 are examples of a "tray" and a "parts supply device", respectively. The imaging camera 22 is an example of an "imaging device". 90 degrees is an example of a "specific posture". Three times are examples of the "second number of times" and the "third number of times".

[0042] Although specific examples of the technology disclosed in this specification have been described in detail above, these are merely examples and do not limit the scope of the claims. The technology described in the claims includes various modifications and variations of the specific examples exemplified above. Modifications of the above embodiments are listed below.

[0043] In the above-described embodiment, when the continuous abnormality count or the continuous same-position abnormality count is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold (S18), it is determined that an abnormality has occurred in the supply of the components 4. However, it may be determined whether or not an abnormality has occurred in the supply of the components 4 based on the ratio of the imaging count to the total abnormality count. Specifically, it may be determined that an abnormality has occurred in the supply of the components 4 when the rate at which the supply angle is determined to be abnormal among a predetermined number of consecutive image processing results is equal to or greater than a predetermined rate. The predetermined number and the predetermined rate are not particularly limited, but may be, for example, four times and 50%. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 6, the total abnormality count increases by "3" during the four imaging counts from "2" to "5". That is, the rate at which the supply angle is determined to be abnormal among four consecutive image processing results is 75%. In such a case, it may be determined that an abnormality has occurred in the supply of the components 4. 4 may be read as "The imaging count and the total abnormality count are counted up and updated", S16 may be read as "The imaging count is counted up and updated", and S18 may be read as "Is the proportion of abnormal supply angles among a predetermined number of consecutive image processing results equal to or greater than a predetermined proportion?" In this example, the count table 56 does not need to store the image processing results, the consecutive abnormality count, and the consecutive same posture abnormality count in association with each other.

[0044] In addition, in the abnormality determination process of FIG. 4, a process for determining whether the components 4 supplied from the component tray 12 are smaller than a predetermined size may be performed before S10. If the components 4 are smaller than the predetermined size, the process proceeds to S10, and if the components 4 are larger than the predetermined size, the process shown in FIG. 4 may not be performed. A relatively small component 4 is likely to change its posture (angle) on the component tray 12. For this reason, it is highly necessary to perform the process of FIG. 4 for components 4 smaller than the predetermined size. On the other hand, it is less necessary to perform the process of FIG. 4 for components 4 larger than the predetermined size, and by not performing the process, it is possible to improve production efficiency. Furthermore, as in the above-mentioned embodiment, an abnormality determination may be performed for all components first, and after confirming that no continuous same posture abnormality has occurred (i.e., after confirming that there is no abnormality in the supply direction of the component tray 12, etc.), an abnormality determination may be performed only for components smaller than the predetermined size.

[0045] In the above embodiment, an abnormality in the supply of components 4 stored in the component trays 12 installed in the tray supply device 14 is detected, but the device for supplying components 4 is not limited to this. For example, it may be a device that supplies components using a magazine with multiple component trays placed on a pallet, or a device that supplies multiple component trays using a belt.

[0046] In addition, the technical elements described in this specification or drawings exert technical utility alone or in various combinations, and are not limited to the combinations described in the claims at the time of filing. In addition, the technologies exemplified in this specification or drawings achieve multiple objectives simultaneously, and achieving one of those objectives is itself technically useful.
