FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a configuration example of a portable terminal device 200 to which an input / output device as an embodiment according to the present invention is applied.
A portable terminal device (PDA) 200 shown in FIG. 1 is an example of an electronic device, and has, for example, functions for inputting character information and converting the character information from Japanese to a foreign language. The mobile terminal device 200 is provided with a haptic feedback generation function using haptics (vibration) on the touch panel. This function makes it possible to realize feedback for an input operation corresponding to the type of information with a tactile sensation for the user.

  This tactile feedback is close in sensation to the click feeling and stroke feeling that have been generally used as operational feedback, and it is more user friendly compared to image and sound feedback. There is an advantage of being intuitive. In addition to the feedback of the input operation, the tactile feedback generation function can present various information to the user in the same manner as conventional image display and sound transmission.

  A mobile terminal device 200 shown in FIG. The main body 13 is provided with an input / output device 100 having various keys 16 to 24 and tactile feedback. For example, the key 16 is a conversion key used when converting character information from Japanese to a foreign language, the key 17 is a decision key, the key 18 is a Japanese / English switching key, and the key 24 is an up / down key. Search key. The main body 13 is provided with other necessary keys. The key 23 is a power switch.

  The input / output device 100 includes a touch panel 15, a plurality of bimorph piezoelectric actuators (hereinafter simply referred to as piezoelectric actuators) 20, and an attitude adjustment mechanism 80. The input / output device 100 is assembled and adjusted by the electronic device assembling apparatus according to the present invention. The touch panel 15 is an example of an input unit, and operates to detect the contact position of an operator's finger, which is an example of an operation body, and output input information.

  The piezoelectric actuator 20 constitutes a tactile sense presenting means (electronic component), generates vibration based on a vibration control signal, and operates to present a tactile sense to a user who operates the touch panel 15. In this example, two piezoelectric actuators 20 are provided in total, two below each side of the touch panel 15. In general, the piezoelectric actuator functions as a force detection sensor in its reverse action. In the present invention, the contact position on the touch panel 15 is detected using the sensor function. Thereby, when the actuator is mounted, the height is adjusted without using an external position sensor or the like.

  The attitude adjustment mechanism 80 is provided below the piezoelectric actuators 20 and operates to adjust the attitudes of these actuators 20 individually. For example, the posture adjustment mechanism 80 is adjusted and fixed based on force detection information (drive information) obtained by driving the piezoelectric actuator 20. This driving includes processing for adjusting the height of the actuator 20 by operating the attitude adjustment mechanism 80 to apply an external force to the piezoelectric actuator 20.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an exploded example (part 1) of the main body 13 and the touch panel 15 shown in FIG. The touch panel 15 shown in FIG. 2 has a structure that can be separated from the main body 13. In this example, when the touch panel 15 is disassembled from the main body 13, it can be seen that a support frame 25 for the image display unit is provided inside the main body 13. At the positions of the four corners of the support frame 25, posture adjustment mechanisms 80 are provided. For example, four long plate-like piezoelectric actuators 20 are fixed to the posture adjusting mechanism 80 by an adhesive.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing an exploded example (part 2) of the main body 13 and the touch panel 15.
When the entire touch panel 15 is removed from the main body 13 shown in FIG. 3, it can be seen that the support frame 25 and the image display unit 30 are provided therein. For the image display unit 30, for example, a liquid crystal display device capable of color display is used, and icons 31 to 34 and the like necessary for character information processing are displayed. The icons 31 to 34 are displayed on the image display unit 30 by operating the up / down search key 24 shown in FIG. In addition to the liquid crystal display device (LCD), an organic EL (electroluminescence), CRT (cathode ray tube) or the like may be used for the image display unit 30.

  The support frame 25 is a quadrilateral frame. The support frame 25 is made of, for example, aluminum, an iron plate, or a stainless plate. Of course, the support frame 25 is not limited to metal, and may be made of hard plastic. The image display unit 30 is provided at positions of the four sides of the frame so that each side is aligned. The support frame 25 has vertical frame portions 25A and 25B. Two posture adjustment mechanisms 80 are arranged in series in the vertical frame portions 25 </ b> A and 25 </ b> B at intervals, and the piezoelectric actuator 20 is fixed on the posture adjustment mechanism 80 with an adhesive. The piezoelectric actuators 20 are arranged in parallel with the X direction, for example. The X direction is a direction orthogonal to the Y direction, which is the short direction of the main body 13.

  The main body 13 forms a casing, and is made of, for example, a plastic molded product obtained by injection molding of PC (polycarbonate), ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), PI (polyimide), or the like. Of course, it is not limited to these.

  The touch panel 15 is a transparent film, and for example, a thin polyester film can be used. For example, a transparent conductive film (ITO) is deposited on the touch panel 15 in a strip shape with a predetermined thickness. Two such polyester films are prepared, and one polyester film has a conductive film formed in a strip shape in the vertical direction, and the other polyester film has a conductive film formed in a strip shape in the horizontal direction. ing.

  By superposing such two polyester films and disposing an insulating spacer between them, both conductive films are kept out of contact as they are. In this laminated structure, when a user (also called an operator) presses the surface of the polyester film with a finger, a current flows through the conductive film of one polyester film and the conductive film of the other polyester film. The structure is such that the position of the image display unit 30 shown in FIG. 3 is pressed from the intersection of the coordinate axes X and Y when the contact is pressed.

  For example, the CPU (central processing unit) uses which icon 31 to 34 of the image display unit 30 shown in FIG. 3 by using the electric circuit to process the current flowing by connecting the XY intersections when the contact is pressed. It is possible to determine whether the finger has been pressed by a person. The type of the touch panel 15 is not particularly limited, and various types having other structures can be employed. The touch panel 15 may be formed by overlapping a transparent glass plate and a transparent film. The conductive film on the surface of the glass plate and the conductive film on the surface of the film are in contact with each other, so that it is understood which position of the image display unit 30 is being pressed.

FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along arrow X1-X2 illustrating a structural example of the input / output device 100 illustrated in FIG.
The four piezoelectric actuators 20 described above are arranged between the touch panel 15 and the support frame 25 shown in FIG. 4 (only two places are shown in the figure). At the lower part of each piezoelectric actuator 20, that is, at the wavy line position shown in FIG.

  In this example, touch panel support members 35 are provided on both ends of the support frame 25 so as to set an interval between the touch panel 15 and the support frame 25. The touch panel support member 35 is made of a material that is flexible and does not absorb vibration. The touch panel support member 35 is disposed at, for example, four corner positions of the touch panel 15. Although not shown in FIG. 4, the panel pressing part 36 is provided in order to press the touch-panel edge part of the upper part of the touch-panel support material 35 (refer FIG. 5).

  In the space between the touch panel 15 and the support frame 25, the piezoelectric actuator 20 described above is arranged. A first support portion 41 is provided between the one end portion 20 </ b> A of the piezoelectric actuator 20 and the support frame 25. Similarly, a second support portion 42 is provided between the other end portion 20 </ b> B of the piezoelectric actuator 20 and the support frame 25. A third support portion 43 is provided between the intermediate portion of the piezoelectric actuator 20 and the back surface of the touch panel 15. That is, one piezoelectric actuator 20 is supported by three points between the touch panel 15 and the support frame 25 using the support portions 41 to 43.

  These support portions 41 to 43 constitute a vibration transmission mechanism 37 and transmit vibration due to the bending displacement of the piezoelectric actuator 20 to the touch panel 15 side. The vibration displacement U of the piezoelectric actuator 20 shown in FIG. 4 is perpendicular to the touch panel 15 and the support frame 25, that is, the Z direction. This Z direction is a direction orthogonal to the X direction and the Y direction shown in FIG.

  The support portions 41 to 43 are composed of a knife-edge projection (not shown) and a soft adhesive. The support portion 41 to the support portion 43 support the surface of the piezoelectric actuator 20 using a knife-edge-like projection so as not to hinder the bending deformation (also referred to as bending deformation) of the piezoelectric actuator 20 at each joint point. Yes.

  That is, the protrusion of the support portion 41 supports the piezoelectric actuator 20 so as to be rotatable in the R direction with respect to the support frame 25. Similarly, the protrusion of the support portion 42 supports the piezoelectric actuator 20 so as to be rotatable in the R direction with respect to the support frame 25. The protrusion of the support portion 43 supports the piezoelectric actuator 20 so as to be rotatable in the R direction with respect to the touch panel 15.

  The soft adhesive 51 applied to the support part 41 to the support part 43 is used for bonding each protrusion to the support frame 25 and the touch panel 15 so as not to cause displacement. As the material of the soft adhesive 51, a material that adheres a protrusion, which is a hard material, and transmits it to the touch panel 15 side without reducing the bending displacement of the piezoelectric actuator 20 can be adopted. As a material of the soft adhesive, for example, a styrene elastomer (KG gel: YMG-80-BK (Kitakawa Kogyo Co., Ltd.)) is used.

  Note that each of the piezoelectric actuators 20 is connected to lead lines L1 and L2. The lead lines L1, L2, etc. are usually connected to the vibration control means 73. The vibration control means 73 supplies power to each piezoelectric actuator. In this example, an amplifier (AMP) is connected to the lead lines L1, L2, etc., the force detection voltage is amplified, and the peak value is sampled and held. A voltage measuring system or a voltage measuring system of an automatic assembly height adjusting device is connected to the amplifier, the force detection voltage after amplification is measured, and the attitude adjusting mechanism 80 is manually or automatically adjusted based on the measurement result. The Thus, the piezoelectric actuator 20 and the vibration transmission mechanism 37 constitute a vibration generating unit. The vibration transmission mechanism 37 and the vibration generating means of the vibration generating means on the other side are configured in the same manner.

  FIG. 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional view showing a structural example of the attitude adjustment mechanism 80 in the input / output device 100. In this embodiment, the support frame 25 is divided into a main portion and a height-adjusting component mounting portion as compared with the conventional method, so that they can move relatively in the height direction (Z direction in the figure). Composed. That is, the movement of the component mounting portion in the XY direction is limited in the support frame 25. For example, the component mounting portion 82 moves only along a hole-shaped guide (hereinafter referred to as a hole portion 81) provided in the support frame 25. Is made.

  The posture adjustment mechanism 80 shown in FIG. 5 includes a hole 81, a component mounting portion 82, and height adjustment screws (hereinafter referred to as adjustment screws) 83A and 83B. The hole portion 81 is provided at a predetermined position of the vertical frame portion 25 </ b> A of the support frame 25. The component mounting portion 82 is engaged with the hole portion 81 so as to be movable up and down. A piezoelectric actuator 20 that is an example of an electronic component is attached to the component attachment portion 82. For example, the piezoelectric actuator 20 is bonded and fixed to the component mounting portion 82 with an adhesive through the support portions 41 and 42. That is, the component mounting portion 82 has a lift structure that moves up and down along the hole 81 with the actuator 20 mounted.

  Two female screws 85A and 85B are provided at predetermined positions in the hole 81 of the vertical frame portion 25A. The female screws 85A and 85B are provided so as to penetrate from the bottom surface of the hole 81 to the back surface of the support frame 25, for example. On the back surface of the support frame 25, a hole portion 84 </ b> A having a predetermined depth and accommodating the adjustment screw 83 </ b> A is provided. The adjustment screw 83B is housed in the hole 84B. This depth is to provide an adjustment margin. The adjustment screws 83A and 83B are an example of a moving part, and operate so as to move the component mounting part 82 up and down. This is because the height of the component mounting portion 82 can be adjusted from the outside. The other three posture adjustment mechanisms 80 are similarly configured.

  In this way, the input / output device 100 having tactile feedback of the mobile terminal device 200 is configured. As can be seen from the above description, the piezoelectric actuator 20, its support portions 41 to 43, and the touch panel support material 35 exist between the touch panel 15 and the support frame 25 to maximize the performance of these piezoelectric actuators. For this purpose, it is desirable that the actuator 20 and the support portions 41 to 43 and the touch panel support member 35 have the same height. However, since each part usually includes a dimensional error, an adjustment process for absorbing them is necessary.

  As described above, according to the mobile terminal device 200 to which the input / output device 100 is applied, the posture adjustment mechanism 80 adjusts the piezoelectric actuator 20 to abut on the touch panel 15 based on the drive information obtained by driving the piezoelectric actuator 20. It is made to fix.

  Accordingly, since the height and the like of the piezoelectric actuator 20 that requires posture adjustment can be adjusted in a self-aligning manner, the piezoelectric actuator 20 can be easily incorporated into the input / output device 100. Thereby, compared with the adjustment method using a laser length meter etc., the assembly cost and assembly time of the input / output device 100 can be reduced significantly.

[Assembly equipment]
Next, an assembly adjustment example of the input / output device 100 having tactile feedback will be described. FIG. 6 is a conceptual diagram showing a configuration example of an automatic assembly adjustment device 300 for an input / output device with a tactile function.

  In this embodiment, when force or displacement is applied to the piezoelectric actuator 20 from the outside, the piezoelectric actuator 20 generates a force detection voltage (drive information) Vd. This voltage generation phenomenon is used when the input / output device 100 is assembled to measure the force detection voltage Vd, and by adjusting the force detection voltage Vd to an appropriate value, the piezoelectric actuator 20, the component mounting portion 82, and the actuator The relative positional relationship of the touch panel 15 or the like on which the action 20 acts is adjusted.

  The robot mechanism 301 is an example of a component attachment unit, and operates to attach the piezoelectric actuator 20 to the attitude adjustment mechanism 80 provided in the component attachment portion (attached portion) 82 of the mobile terminal device 200. For example, the robot mechanism 301 grips the input / output device 100 based on the transport control signal S 1 output from the control unit 304 and places it on the stage 302. The robot mechanism 301 also operates so as to eject the input / output device whose piezoelectric actuator height has been adjusted from the stage 302. For example, the robot mechanism 301 grips and lifts the input / output device 100 based on the transport control signal S1 and transports it to a stocker (not shown).

  The stage 302 is provided with a protrusion 321 that defines a reference position. The end of the input / output device 100 is placed on the stage 302 so as to follow the reference position.

For example, the height adjustment drive unit 303 includes two height adjusters 38 and 39. That is, two height adjustment drive units 303 are provided for each piezoelectric actuator. The height adjusters 38 and 39 are composed of, for example, a stepping motor, a reduction gear, a chuck, and the like.

  A tip cross-shaped fastening tool 88 is attached to the height adjuster 38 via a chuck (not shown). Similarly, a tip cross-shaped fastening tool 89 is attached to the height adjuster 39. The respective fasteners 88 and 89 are respectively engaged with adjustment screws 83A and 83B of the attitude adjustment mechanism 80 of the input / output device 100 placed on the stage with high accuracy. The height adjuster 38 is configured to rotate the fastening tool 88 clockwise or the like in a predetermined step based on the adjustment control signal S2. Based on the adjustment control signal S3, the height adjuster 39 rotates the fastening tool 89 in a clockwise direction or the like in predetermined steps.

  The height adjustment drive unit 303 and the control unit 304 constitute drive control means, and drive the piezoelectric actuator 20 attached to the posture adjustment mechanism 80 by the robot mechanism 301 on the stage 302 and also the piezoelectric actuator 20. The attitude adjustment mechanism 80 is controlled based on the force detection voltage Vd obtained from the above.

  The lead line L and the height adjustment drive unit 303 of the piezoelectric actuator 20 are connected to the control unit 304. The control unit 304 includes a terminal 311, an amplifier (AMP) 306, an A / D converter 307, and a comparator 308 in addition to the control device 305, the operation panel 310, and the display unit 309. The amplifier 306, the A / D converter 307, and the comparator 308 constitute a detection unit that detects a force detection voltage (drive information) Vd from the piezoelectric actuator 20 driven by the height adjustment drive unit 303.

  A terminal 311 is prepared for each of the four piezoelectric actuators 20. In this example, a detection system of one piezoelectric actuator 20 will be described. A lead wire L extending from the piezoelectric actuator 20 is connected to a terminal 311 (see FIG. 7). On the other hand, an amplifier 306 is connected to the terminal 311 to amplify the force detection voltage Vd output from the piezoelectric actuator 20 and hold the peak value of Vd. An analog / digital (hereinafter referred to as A / D) converter 307 is connected to the amplifier 306 to A / D convert the force detection voltage Vd.

  A comparator 308 is connected to the A / D converter 307, monitors the force detection voltage Vd, and always compares the threshold value Vth with the force detection voltage Vd. For example, the force detection data Dd after A / D conversion is compared with preset threshold data Dth. The threshold data Dth is set in the comparator 308 from the operation panel 310 via the control device 305, for example.

  It should be noted that the ideal height adjustment of the actuator is exactly when the piezoelectric body is about to start deformation, for example, immediately before the deformation, so the threshold value Vth is almost 0V. If Vth = 0, the stability of the system cannot be secured, so the threshold value Vth is set to a certain value. In this example, the front-end cross-shaped fasteners 88 and 89 are rotated in the forward direction, and the forward rotation is stopped when Vd> Vth. Thereafter, the fastening tools 88 and 89 are reversely rotated by a preset reverse rotation amount to complete the adjustment. Here, the reverse rotation amount is an amount corresponding to the moment when the actuator starts to deform.

  The control device 305 includes a ROM (Read Only Memory) 53, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 54, and a central processing unit (hereinafter referred to as CPU) 55. The ROM 53 stores system program data for controlling the entire apparatus. The RAM 54 is used as a work memory. For example, operation data D3 and control commands are temporarily stored. In this example, when the power is turned on, the CPU 55 reads the system program data from the ROM 53 to start the system, and controls the entire apparatus based on the operation data D3 from the operation panel 310.

  In this example, a nonvolatile memory (not shown) is provided in addition to the ROM 53 and the RAM 54. The nonvolatile memory stores threshold data Dth set on the operation panel 310. A control device 305 is connected to the comparator 308 and controls the posture adjustment mechanism 80 based on the force detection voltage Vd of the piezoelectric actuator 20 detected by the amplifier 306 or the like.

  FIG. 7 is a conceptual diagram showing an operation example at the time of height adjustment in the automatic assembly height adjustment apparatus 300. In this example, the description will be divided into two parts at the time of height adjustment operation and when the height adjustment operation is stopped.

[Height adjustment operation]
The input / output device 100 to which the piezoelectric actuator 20 is bonded is placed on the stage shown in FIG. A lead line L extending from the piezoelectric actuator 20 is connected to the terminal 311. The force detection voltage Vd output from the piezoelectric actuator 20 is amplified by the amplifier 306. The force detection voltage Vd amplified by the amplifier 306 is A / D converted by the A / D converter 307. The force detection data Dd after A / D conversion is output to the comparator 308.

  The comparator 308 compares the force detection data Dd with preset threshold data Dth. The comparison result is output from the comparator 308 to the control device 305. The control device 305 controls the adjustment screws 83A and 83B of the posture adjustment mechanism 80 in the input / output device 100 based on the comparison result obtained from the comparator 308. When the force detection voltage Vd is less than the threshold value Vth (Vd <Vth), the adjustment permission data D1 indicating the height adjustment continuation permission is output from the comparator 308 to the control device 305.

  The control device 305 generates adjustment control signals S2 and S3 based on the adjustment permission data D1. The adjustment control signal S2 is output to the height adjuster 38. The adjustment control signal S3 is output to the height adjuster 39. The height adjuster 38 is configured to rotate the fastening tool 88 clockwise in predetermined steps based on the adjustment control signal S2.

  As a result, one adjustment screw 83A of the posture adjustment mechanism 80 rotates clockwise in predetermined steps, and gradually pushes up the component mounting portion 82 to which the piezoelectric actuator 20 is bonded. The height adjuster 39 also rotates the clamp 89 in a predetermined step, such as clockwise, based on the adjustment control signal S3. As a result, the other adjustment screw 83B of the posture adjustment mechanism 80 rotates clockwise in predetermined steps, and gradually pushes up the component mounting portion 82 to which the piezoelectric actuator 20 is bonded.

[Height adjustment operation stopped]
Further, when the above-described force detection voltage Vd becomes equal to or higher than the threshold value Vth (Vd ≧ Vth), for example, adjustment permission data D1 bar (the upper line is omitted) is controlled from the comparator 308 to indicate the stop of height adjustment. It is output to the device 305. The control device 305 generates adjustment control signals S2 and S3 indicating the end of height adjustment based on the adjustment permission data D1 bar.

  The adjustment control signal S2 bar is output to the height adjuster 38. The height adjuster 38 stops the rotation of the clamp 88 based on the adjustment control signal S2 bar. The adjustment control signal S3 bar is output to the height adjuster 39. The height adjuster 39 stops the rotation of the fastening tool 89 based on the adjustment control signal S3 bar. As a result, the upper movement of the adjustment screws 83A, 83B, etc. is stopped, and the component mounting portion 82 is fixed.

  In this manner, the height adjusters 38 and 39 are driven based on the adjustment control signals S2 and S3, and the adjustment screws 83A and 83B and the like of the posture adjustment mechanism 80 can be rotated clockwise. When the relationship between the force detection voltage Vd and the threshold value Vth becomes Vd ≧ Vth, the comparator 308 outputs the adjustment permission data D1 bar to the control device 305. The control device 305 can stop the height adjustment process based on the adjustment permission data D1 bar.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing a processing example at the time of height adjustment in the automatic assembly height adjustment apparatus 300.

  In this embodiment, when the portable terminal device 200 is assembled by mounting the piezoelectric actuator 20, the step of forming the attitude adjustment mechanism 80 in the attached portion of the input / output device 100, and the attached portion of the portable terminal device 200 The step of attaching the piezoelectric actuator 20 to the posture adjustment mechanism 80 formed in the step, the step of driving the piezoelectric actuator 20 attached to the posture adjustment mechanism 80, and the force detection voltage Vd obtained by driving the piezoelectric actuator 20 A step of adjusting the posture of the piezoelectric actuator 20 (an assembling method of the portable terminal device).

  In this example, it is assumed that the heights of the piezoelectric actuators 20 at the four corners are adjusted simultaneously. As an example, the input / output device 100 is prepared by bonding the piezoelectric actuator 20 to the component mounting portion 82. It is assumed that the operation conditions of the robot mechanism 301, the threshold value Vth, and the like are set in advance using the operation panel 310.

  Under these processing conditions, first, the input / output device 100 having the piezoelectric actuator 20 bonded thereto is set on the stage 302 in step A1 of the flowchart shown in FIG. The input / output device 100 is configured such that the touch panel support member 35 is attached to the support frame 25 in which the adjustment screws 83A, 83B and the like are set at the lowest position using an adhesive in advance. In this state, the component attachment portion 82 is attached to the hole portion 81 of the support frame 25. The piezoelectric actuator 20 is attached between the component attachment portion 82 and the touch panel 15 by using an adhesive via support portions 41 to 43 (see FIG. 4).

  The input / output device 100 to which the piezoelectric actuator is bonded for one lot formed in this way is put into a stocker (not shown) and brought into the height adjusting step. Then, the operation data 310 is output to the CPU 55 by operating the operation panel 310. The CPU 55 outputs a transport control signal S1 to the robot mechanism 301 based on the operation data D3. The robot mechanism 301 grips the input / output device 100 to which the actuator is bonded based on the transport control signal S 1 output from the CPU 55 and places it on the stage 302.

  At this time, the end of the input / output device 100 is placed so as to be along a protrusion 321 that defines a reference position provided on the stage 302. By aligning the end of the input / output device 100 at this reference position, the plurality of openings 322 opened at predetermined positions of the stage 302 are aligned. Inside the opening 322, a distal cross-shaped tightening tool 88 that is freely rotatable is engaged with the adjustment screw 83A, and a tightening tool 89 is engaged with the adjustment screw 83B.

  In step A2, the lead line L extending from the input / output device 10 is connected to the terminal 311 of the automatic adjustment device. The connection of the lead line L is preferably automatic connection, but may be either manual connection or either. Thereafter, in step A3, the CPU 55 accepts whether or not to activate the height adjustment process in the device. When the height adjustment process activation is accepted, the process proceeds to step A4 and step A5 to execute parallel processing. In step A4, the force detection voltage Vd is monitored by the detection system, and the threshold value Vth and the force detection voltage Vd are always compared.

  At this time, the force detection voltage Vd output from the piezoelectric actuator 20 is amplified by the amplifier 36. The force detection voltage Vd amplified by the amplifier 306 is held at its peak value. The peak waveform in this case is a DC voltage proportional to the deflection of the piezoelectric body. This peak value is A / D converted by an A / D converter 307. The force detection data Dd after A / D conversion is output to the comparator 308. The comparator 308 compares the force detection data Dd with preset threshold data Dth. The comparison result is output from the comparator 308 to the CPU 55. For example, when the force detection voltage Vd is less than the threshold value Vth (Vd <Vth), the adjustment permission data D1 indicating the height adjustment continuation permission is output from the comparator 308 to the CPU 55.

  In parallel with the processing in step A4, in step A5, the CPU 55 controls the adjustment screws 83A, 83B and the like of the attitude adjustment mechanism 80 in the input / output device 100 based on the comparison result obtained from the comparator 308. For example, the CPU 55 generates adjustment control signals S2 and S3 based on the adjustment permission data D1. The CPU 55 drives the height adjusters 38 and 39 based on the adjustment control signals S <b> 2 and S <b> 3 to rotate the adjustment screws 83 </ b> A and 83 </ b> B of the component mounting portion 82 of the posture adjustment mechanism 80.

  At this time, the adjustment control signal S2 is output to the height adjuster 38. The height adjuster 38 is configured to rotate (normally rotate) the fastening tool 88 in a clockwise direction in a predetermined step based on the adjustment control signal S2. As a result, one adjustment screw 83A of the posture adjustment mechanism 80 rotates clockwise in predetermined steps, and gradually pushes up the component mounting portion 82 to which the piezoelectric actuator 20 is bonded.

  The adjustment control signal S3 is output to the height adjuster 39. In the height adjuster 39, for example, the stepping motor rotates (normally rotates) the fastening tool 89 in a clockwise direction based on the adjustment control signal S3. As a result, the other adjustment screw 83B of the posture adjustment mechanism 80 rotates clockwise in predetermined steps, and gradually pushes up the component mounting portion 82 to which the piezoelectric actuator 20 is bonded.

  When the force detection voltage Vd becomes equal to or higher than the threshold value Vth in step A4 described above (Vd ≧ Vth), the process proceeds to step A6 and the CPU 55 executes the height adjustment stop / discharge process. At this time, the adjustment permission data D1 bar indicating the height adjustment continuation stop is output from the comparator 308 to the CPU 55. The CPU 55 generates adjustment control signals S2 and S3 indicating the end of height adjustment based on the adjustment permission data D1 bar.

  The adjustment control signal S2 bar is output to the height adjuster 38. The height adjuster 38 stops the rotation of the clamp 88 based on the adjustment control signal S2 bar. The adjustment control signal S3 bar is output to the height adjuster 39. The height adjuster 39 stops the rotation of the fastening tool 89 based on the adjustment control signal S3 bar. As a result, the upper movement of the adjustment screws 83A, 83B, etc. is stopped, and the component mounting portion 82 is fixed.

  Further, the robot mechanism 301 operates so as to eject the input / output device 100 whose height of the piezoelectric actuator has been adjusted from the stage 302. At this time, the robot mechanism 301 grips and lifts the input / output device 100 based on the transport control signal S1 and transports it to a stocker (not shown). The adjusting screws 83A, 83B and the like are fixed by a screw lock member or the like, for example, during the conveyance. An epoxy resin or the like is used for the screw lock member.

  In step A7, the CPU 55 performs reset processing. In this process, the previous stepping motor rotates in the reverse direction so as to lower the front-end cross-shaped fasteners 88 and 89 to the home position. This is to cope with the height adjustment processing of the next input / output device 100. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step A8 to determine whether all lots have been completed. If all the lots have not been completed, the process returns to step A1 to repeat the above-described processing.

  As described above, according to the automatic assembly and adjustment device as the embodiment of the present invention, when assembling the input / output device 100 in which the posture adjustment mechanism 80 is provided at the portion where the piezoelectric actuator 20 is attached, the CPU 55 The piezoelectric actuator 20 on the posture adjustment mechanism 80 conveyed on the stage is driven, and the posture adjustment mechanism 80 is controlled based on the force detection voltage Vd obtained from the piezoelectric actuator 20.

  Therefore, this force detection is performed by using drive information obtained from the piezoelectric actuator 20 attached to the attitude adjustment mechanism 80 of the mobile terminal device 200, for example, that the piezoelectric actuator 20 functions as a sensor that detects the position as the reverse action. The posture such as the height of the piezoelectric actuator 20 can be adjusted in a self-aligning manner based on the voltage Vd.

  As a result, the piezoelectric actuator 20 that requires posture adjustment can be easily incorporated, a position sensor for measuring the height of the piezoelectric actuator 20 externally becomes unnecessary, and the cost of the assembling apparatus can be reduced. In addition to the above-mentioned cost advantage, the relative positional relationship of the components constituting the input / output device 100 is performed by a part of the components, so that the measured value is compared with the case of using a laser length meter or the like. Various error factors included can be reduced. Therefore, the performance of the input / output device 100 can be maximized.

  According to the method for assembling a portable terminal device according to the present invention, a simple adjustment method can be provided as compared with an adjustment method using a laser length meter or the like. Regarding the electronic component, the case of the piezoelectric actuator 20 has been described. However, a force detection sensor or a piezoelectric composite device including a piezoelectric element and a force detection sensor may be used.

  In this embodiment, the case where the height of the piezoelectric actuator 20 is adjusted by the automatic adjuster has been described. However, the operator may perform the work while looking at the value indicated by the voltage measuring device. In this case, the lead line L of the piezoelectric actuator 20 is connected to the voltage measuring device via an amplifier. The operator rotates the adjustment screw 83 while watching the value of the voltage measuring device, gradually raises the position of the component mounting portion 82, and stops the voltage displayed by the voltage measuring device at an appropriate value. Thereafter, the adjustment screw 83 is fixed with, for example, a screw lock member. An epoxy resin or the like is used for the screw lock member.

  The “appropriate value” output from the voltage measuring device may be an actuator displacement amount (for example, 0.05 mm) obtained by measuring the characteristics of the piezoelectric actuator in advance, or the moment when the actuator starts to be displaced, that is, the voltage measuring device It may be a point at which a certain voltage value starts to be output.

  FIG. 9 is a conceptual diagram illustrating a configuration example when adjusting the height of the input / output device 100 according to the second embodiment.

  In the second embodiment, unlike the first embodiment, the posture adjusting mechanism 80 is not provided. In this example, when the height of the touch panel support member 35 is hx, a plurality of touch panel support members 35A, 35B, 35C, 35D,.. A touch panel support member 35 having a height hx is selected (extracted) and attached. In order to select the touch panel support material 35 having the optimum height hx, it is assumed that the piezoelectric actuator 20 is temporarily assembled on the support frame 25 and then the present assembly process is performed.

  An amplifier built-in voltage measurement device 400 shown in FIG. 9 is used to measure the force detection voltage Vd output from the piezoelectric actuator 20 during temporary assembly. The voltage measurement device 400 includes an amplifier 46, a voltage measurement unit 47, an operation unit 48, and a display unit 49.

  The operation unit 48 is operated when inputting a voltage measurement command or the like. Operation data D31 generated by this input operation is output to the voltage measurement unit 47. The lead line L of the piezoelectric actuator 20 described above is connected to the voltage measuring unit 47 via the amplifier 46. The amplifier 46 operates to amplify the force detection voltage Vd output from the piezoelectric actuator 20. A voltage measuring unit 47 is connected to the amplifier 46 to measure the force detection voltage Vd. A display unit 49 is connected to the voltage measurement unit 47, and the force detection voltage Vd is displayed based on the display data D21. The values displayed by the voltage measuring device 400 and the dimensional relationship of the touch panel support member 35 are associated in advance.

  In this example, the touch panel support member 35 is a member having a reference height h0. For example, four touch panel support members 35A to 35D having different dimensions are prepared in advance for the touch panel support member 35 having the reference height h0. The touch panel support member 35A is a member having a height h1, the touch panel support member 35B is a member having a height h2, and the touch panel support member 35C is a member having a height h3. The touch panel support member 35D is a member having a height h4. Between these five touch panel support members 35 and 35A to 35D, h1 <h2 <h0 <h3 <h4 is defined with respect to the magnitude relationship of the height hx. The touch panel support material 35 having the optimum height hx is selected (extracted) from among them.

  FIG. 10 is a process diagram showing an example of adjusting the height of the input / output device 100. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the piezoelectric actuator 20 is temporarily assembled on the support frame 25, the touch panel support material 35 having the optimum height hx is selected, and then the present assembly process is performed.

  Under these adjustment conditions, first, a support frame 25 as shown in FIG. 10A is prepared. Next, the touch panel support members 35 having the reference height h0 shown in FIG. 10B are disposed on both sides of the support frame 25, and the piezoelectric actuator 20 is disposed at a predetermined position of the support frame 25 via the support portions 41 and 42. . A support portion 43 is disposed at the center of the piezoelectric actuator 20.

  And the touch panel 15 is arrange | positioned on the upper part of the touch panel support material 35 and the support part 43 which are shown to FIG. 10C. In such a temporarily assembled state, the lead wire L of the piezoelectric actuator 20 is connected to the voltage measuring device 400 shown in FIG. Thereafter, the operation unit 48 is operated to input a voltage measurement command or the like. Operation data D31 generated by this input operation is output to the voltage measurement unit 47. The amplifier 46 amplifies the force detection voltage Vd output from the piezoelectric actuator 20. The amplified force detection voltage Vd is measured by the voltage measurement unit 47. The display unit 49 connected to the voltage measuring unit 47 displays the force detection voltage Vd based on the display data D21.

  When the touch panel support member 35 having the reference height h0 has an optimum height, the display unit 49 displays the optimum force detection voltage Vd. On the other hand, when the touch panel support material 35 having the reference height h0 is too low, the display unit 49 does not display the force detection voltage Vd. When the touch panel support member 35 is too high, the display unit 49 causes the force detection voltage exceeding the reference value. Vd is displayed.

  When the touch panel support material 35 is too low, the operator selects the touch panel support materials 35C and 35D having heights h3 and h4 and executes the above-described processing. When the touch panel support material 35 is too high, the touch panel support materials 35A and 35B having heights h1 and h2 are selected and the above-described process is executed (temporary assembly process).

  After the touch panel support material 35 having the optimum height is extracted by such temporary assembly, the main assembly process is executed. In this process, the touch panel support material 35 is attached to the support frame 25 using an adhesive. In this state, the support portions 41 and 42 are bonded onto the support frame 25. The piezoelectric actuator 20 is bonded to the support portions 41 and 42, and the support portion 43 is bonded to the central portion of the piezoelectric actuator 20. Thereafter, the touch panel 15 is bonded to the upper part of the touch panel support member 35 and the upper part of the support part 43.

  Thus, according to the height adjustment method of the piezoelectric actuator mounting input / output device according to the second embodiment, a touch panel support material having an optimum height dimension, for example, a touch panel support, is obtained from the value displayed by the voltage measurement device 400. The material 35A is selected and the main assembly is performed using it.

  Therefore, in assembling the input / output device 100 with a tactile function that requires precise position (height) adjustment, a height measuring device that must be prepared externally as production equipment is not required. Can be configured at low cost. In addition, even when compared with each processing dimension management method, since strict dimension management is not necessary, the total manufacturing cost can be reduced.

  In each embodiment, the case of a bimorph piezoelectric actuator has been described with respect to an electronic component. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and force detection that determines input information by detecting a force at a contact position of a user who operates the touch panel 15. It may have a sensor function (force detection means).
