Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The complexity of three-dimensional objects makes it difficult to accurately arrange components on their surfaces due to the challenge of placing reference marks on multiple forming surfaces, especially when the shapes are intricate.
Innovation Solution
A three-dimensional mounting device with a supporting section, an applying section, and an imaging section that can tilt in multiple directions, allowing for imaging, application, and mounting processing using the circuit pattern on the forming surfaces as a reference position without the need for special reference marks, enabling precise component arrangement.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If reference marks are arranged on each mounting surface of a workpiece, then deviation of inclination can be corrected, but the complexity of arranging reference marks increases with the number of mounting surfaces
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the reference function from separate reference marks and integrates it into the circuit pattern itself. The circuit pattern, which already exists on the workpiece, serves dual purposes: as an electrical circuit and as a reference for coordinate correction. This eliminates the need for additional reference marks on each mounting surface.
Solution Approach 2:
The circuit pattern is given multiple functions: it serves as both the electrical circuit and the reference mark for inclination correction. By making the circuit pattern universal for both electrical and measurement purposes, the patent avoids the complexity of adding separate reference marks to each surface.
2Manufacturing precision
If multiple reference marks are arranged on complex three-dimensional objects, then mounting accuracy can be maintained, but the difficulty of arranging reference marks increases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The circuit pattern serves itself as the reference mark. Since the circuit pattern is already manufactured as part of the workpiece, it automatically provides the reference function without requiring additional manufacturing steps for placing reference marks. The workpiece's own circuit pattern performs the reference function.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent removes the separate reference mark element and uses the existing circuit pattern instead. This extraction of the reference function from a separate component to the circuit pattern itself simplifies the manufacturing process.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the workpiece is tilted for imaging and mounting processing, then access to multiple surfaces is improved, but the complexity of the supporting section increases
Solution Approach 1:
The supporting section is made dynamic with multiple tilt axes, allowing the workpiece to be tilted in multiple directions. This dynamic capability enables access to various surfaces of complex three-dimensional objects while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure through coordinated control of the tilt movements.

AI summary
The three-dimensional mounting device includes a supporting section capable of fixing a processing target, an application section for applying a viscous fluid to the processing target, a mounting section for arranging a component on the processing target, an imaging section for imaging the processing target, and a control section for controlling the processing section including the supporting section, the application section, the mounting section, and the imaging section. One or more of the supporting section, the application section, the mounting section, and the imaging section has multiple tilt axes and is capable of tilting the processing target and/or the processing section in multiple directions. The control section performs coordinate correction using the circuit pattern on the forming surface as a reference position, and arranges the component on the mounting section.
