Electronic Component Mounting Device Lead Positioning
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic component mounting devices struggle to accurately position leads on a substrate due to limited regulatory capabilities and stability issues, particularly at multiple positions along the lead length.
Innovation Solution
A mounting device with a holding part and a regulating part that moves relative to each other, utilizing pinching mechanisms and insertion holes to stabilize and accurately position leads, allowing for precise placement and protection of leads during mounting.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If a single regulating part is used to position the lead, then the device complexity is reduced, but the positioning accuracy at multiple lead positions deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The regulating part is designed to move relative to the holding part, allowing the regulation position to be dynamically adjusted along the lead length. This enables a single regulating part to achieve positioning at multiple positions (first part close to holding part, second part distant from holding part) without requiring multiple fixed regulators, thus maintaining simplicity while improving precision.
2Stability of the object's composition
If the holding part and regulating part are kept close together, then the lead stability is improved, but the ability to regulate position at distant points deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The relative movement capability between the holding part and regulating part allows the system to maintain close proximity for stability when needed, while also enabling the regulating part to extend its regulation range to distant positions on the lead by moving relative to the holding part.
3Manufacturing precision
If the pinching parts directly contact and press the lead, then the positioning control is improved, but the risk of lead damage increases
Solution Approach 1:
An insertion hole is provided in the regulating part through which the lead passes. The pinching parts regulate the lead position by guiding it through this insertion hole rather than directly pressing on the lead body, thereby achieving precise positioning control while reducing the risk of lead damage.

AI summary
A mounting device which mounts an electronic component onto a substrate with a simple configuration, is provided. The mounting device includes a holding part configured to hold an electronic component, and a regulating part configured to regulate a radial position of a lead of the electronic component. The regulating part is capable of regulating the position of the lead at a first part, and is capable of regulating the position of the lead at a second part more distant from the holding part than the first part. By the holding part and the regulating part moving relatively to each other while the holding part holding the electronic component, the regulating part moves between a position at which the position of the lead is regulated at the first part and a position at which the position of the lead is regulated at the second part.
