Description

  The present invention relates to a temperature adjusting device for an adhesive dispenser that adjusts the temperature of the adhesive in the adhesive dispenser.

As a temperature control device for a conventional adhesive dispenser, for example, as described in Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-99756), air for temperature control is circulated in the vicinity of the discharge nozzle of the adhesive dispenser. The temperature of the adhesive near the discharge nozzle of the adhesive dispenser is adjusted to the set temperature by forming a temperature adjusting air passage and adjusting the temperature of the temperature adjusting air to the same temperature as the set temperature of the adhesive. There is something like that.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-99756

  In recent years, there is an apparatus in which an adhesive dispenser can be automatically replaced by adsorbing and holding the adhesive dispenser on a mounting head of a component mounting machine. In this system, during the adhesive application operation, the adhesive dispenser is disconnected from the temperature adjustment device (the air supply source for temperature adjustment) and the temperature of the adhesive cannot be adjusted. It is performed only when the adhesive application operation is not performed (that is, when the adhesive dispenser is prepared in the temperature adjustment table section).

  In the conventional system, the temperature of the temperature adjusting air is adjusted to the set temperature, so that the temperature of the adhesive near the discharge nozzle of the adhesive dispenser is adjusted to the set temperature. It takes a long time to raise the temperature from the state to the set temperature (because the temperature difference between the temperature of the temperature adjusting air and the temperature of the adhesive is small).

  In the system in which the adhesive dispenser is sucked and held by the mounting head of the component mounting machine, the adhesive dispenser is frequently replaced. Therefore, it is necessary to shorten the time for raising the temperature of the adhesive from the cooled state to the set temperature.

  In order to meet this requirement, when the temperature of the adhesive is raised from the cooled state to the set temperature, the temperature of the temperature adjustment air is sufficiently higher than the set temperature to speed up the temperature adjustment of the adhesive. In this case, however, there is a problem that the temperature of the adhesive exceeds the allowable temperature range (set temperature ± allowable temperature change amount) due to thermal inertia, and overshooting easily occurs.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and the object thereof is to shorten the time required to raise the temperature of the adhesive in the adhesive dispenser from the cooled state to the set temperature, It is possible to prevent the adhesive temperature from overshooting beyond the allowable temperature range (set temperature ± allowable temperature change), and to achieve both high-speed adjustment of the adhesive temperature and prevention of overshooting due to thermal inertia. An object of the present invention is to provide a temperature control device for an adhesive dispenser.

  In order to achieve the above object, the invention according to claim 1 is directed to a temperature adjustment passage for circulating a heat exchange medium for adjusting the temperature of the adhesive in the adhesive dispenser, and heat exchange on the inlet side of the temperature adjustment passage. Inlet side heat exchange medium temperature detection means for detecting the temperature of the medium (hereinafter referred to as “inlet side heat exchange medium temperature”) and adhesive temperature detection for directly or indirectly detecting the temperature of the adhesive in the adhesive dispenser And a heat exchange medium temperature adjusting means for adjusting the temperature of the heat exchange medium supplied to the temperature adjustment passage, wherein the heat exchange medium temperature adjusting means has an adhesive temperature detected by the adhesive temperature detecting means. When the temperature is away from the set temperature by a predetermined temperature or more, the temperature difference between the temperature of the heat exchange medium and the set temperature is increased to adjust the adhesive temperature to change rapidly toward the set temperature. In the case where the adhesive temperature detected by the adhesive temperature detecting means is within the predetermined temperature from the set temperature, the inlet side detected by the inlet heat exchange medium temperature detecting means is selected. The “heat retention mode” is selected in which the temperature of the heat exchange medium is adjusted to be at or near the set temperature.

  In the present invention, when the temperature of the adhesive in the adhesive dispenser is raised from the cooled state to the set temperature, first, in the rapid temperature adjustment mode, the temperature difference between the temperature of the heat exchange medium and the set temperature is increased. The temperature of the adhesive is rapidly raised toward the set temperature, and then the temperature control mode is switched from the rapid temperature adjustment mode to the heat retention mode when the adhesive temperature detected by the adhesive temperature detecting means falls within the predetermined temperature from the set temperature. The time required to raise the temperature of the adhesive from the cooled state to the set temperature can be shortened by the rapid temperature control mode, and the temperature difference between the adhesive temperature and the set temperature falls within the specified temperature. By switching from the rapid temperature control mode to the heat retention mode, the heat retention mode prevents the adhesive temperature from overshooting beyond the allowable temperature range (set temperature ± allowable temperature change). Can, it is possible to achieve both overshoot prevention by speed and thermal inertia of the temperature control of the adhesive.

  In addition, in the present invention, the adhesive temperature detecting means detects the timing of switching from the rapid temperature control mode to the heat retention mode in consideration of the fact that the adhesive temperature has a follow-up delay with respect to the temperature of the heat exchange medium. Judgment is made based on the temperature difference between the adhesive temperature and the set temperature, so the maximum execution time of the rapid temperature adjustment mode is maximized within a range that can reliably prevent overshoot (adhesive temperature rise) due to thermal inertia. Can be long. Further, in the heat retaining mode, the temperature of the inlet side heat exchange medium detected by the inlet side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means is adjusted so as to be at or near the set temperature, so that it is swayed by subtle changes in the actual adhesive temperature. Therefore, the adhesive temperature can be stably maintained at or near the set temperature.

  Further, in the heat retention mode, the temperature of the heat exchange medium on the outlet side of the temperature adjusting passage (hereinafter referred to as “outlet side heat exchange medium temperature”) is approximately equal to the adhesive temperature, as in claim 2. In place of the inlet side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means, outlet side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means for detecting the outlet side heat exchange medium temperature is provided, and the temperature of the adhesive in the adhesive dispenser is raised from the cooled state to the set temperature. In this case, first, in the rapid temperature adjustment mode similar to the above-described claim 1, the adhesive temperature is rapidly raised toward the set temperature, and then the adhesive temperature detected by the adhesive temperature detecting means is changed from the set temperature. When the temperature falls within the predetermined temperature, switch from the rapid temperature control mode to the heat retention mode, and adjust so that the temperature of the outlet side heat exchange medium detected by the outlet side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means is at or near the set temperature. Anyway . Even if it does in this way, the effect similar to Claim 1 can be acquired. However, when the flow rate of the heat exchange medium is small, the outlet side heat exchange medium temperature may not match the adhesive temperature, so when the flow rate of the heat exchange medium is small, In some cases, it is better to manage the temperature of the adhesive based on the inlet-side heat exchange medium temperature during the heat retention mode.

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, the adhesive temperature detecting means may detect the temperature near the discharge nozzle of the adhesive dispenser as the adhesive temperature. In this way, it is possible to accurately detect the adhesive temperature from the outside of the adhesive dispenser.

  Further, even in the rapid temperature control mode, the adhesive temperature and the outlet side heat exchange medium temperature change with a certain degree of correlation, so that the adhesive temperature can be estimated from the outlet side heat exchange medium temperature. In consideration of this point, both the inlet-side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means and the outlet-side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means are provided (the adhesive temperature detecting means is omitted) as in the fourth aspect, and the outlet side If the outlet side heat exchange medium temperature detected by the heat exchange medium temperature detection means is more than the predetermined temperature from the set temperature of the adhesive, the temperature difference between the heat exchange medium and the set temperature is increased to increase the adhesive The “rapid temperature control mode” for adjusting the temperature so as to rapidly change toward the set temperature is selected, and the outlet side adhesive temperature detected by the outlet side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means is changed from the set temperature to the predetermined temperature. If the temperature is within the range, the “heat retention mode” is selected in which the temperature of the inlet side heat exchange medium detected by the inlet side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means is adjusted to be at or near the set temperature. May be.

  In this case, if the estimated error of the adhesive temperature estimated from the outlet-side heat exchange medium temperature is taken into account, the adhesive can be switched from the rapid temperature control mode to the heat retention mode early with a margin corresponding to the estimated error. The temperature of the adhesive can be prevented from overshooting beyond the allowable temperature range, and both speeding up of the temperature adjustment of the adhesive and prevention of overshooting due to thermal inertia can be achieved.

  In the present invention described above, the temperature of the adhesive is adjusted by the heat exchange medium temperature adjusting means in a state where the adhesive dispenser is set on the temperature adjustment table of the component mounting machine, and the adhesive is applied. It is preferable to use the adhesive dispenser by adsorbing and holding the adhesive dispenser on the mounting head of the component mounter during work. In this way, even if the adhesive dispenser is frequently replaced while the component mounter is in operation, overshoot due to thermal inertia is prevented while quickly raising the temperature of the adhesive from the cooled state to the set temperature. can do.

  Hereinafter, five examples 1 to 5 embodying the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described.

A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
First, the structure of the adhesive dispenser 11 is demonstrated based on FIG.
A syringe 13 storing an adhesive is accommodated in a main body case 12 of the adhesive dispenser 11. A discharge nozzle 14 that discharges the adhesive supplied from the syringe 13 is fixed to the lower end portion of the main body case 12 downward by a nut member 27. A float 15 for extruding the adhesive is accommodated in the syringe 13.

  In the lower part of the main body case 12, an inlet 21 for introducing temperature adjusting air, which is a heat exchange medium, and an annular temperature adjusting passage for circulating the air introduced from the inlet 21 along the upper periphery of the discharge nozzle 14. 22 are provided. A temperature control passage 23 is also provided between the inner peripheral surface of the main body case 12 and the outer peripheral surface of the syringe 13, and air flowing through the temperature control passage 22 around the upper portion of the discharge nozzle 14 is communicated from the communication hole 24 to the outer peripheral surface of the syringe 13. It flows into the temperature control passage 23 and is discharged from an outlet 25 formed on the peripheral side surface of the main body case 12. Note that a gas other than air may be used as the heat exchange medium.

  The adhesive dispenser 11 configured as described above is prepared in a temperature control table section (not shown) and used for adhesive application work before being attracted to a mounting head (not shown) of a component mounting machine. When this is done, the adhesive dispenser 11 is sucked and held by the mounting head of the component mounter, and the adhesive application operation is executed.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the temperature adjustment table unit (adhesive dispenser temperature adjustment device) has an air temperature adjustment device 31 (heat exchange medium temperature) for adjusting the temperature of the temperature adjustment air supplied to the temperature adjustment passage 22. Adjusting means) and an inlet side air temperature sensor 32 (inlet side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means) for detecting the temperature of the temperature adjusting air on the inlet 21 side of the temperature adjusting passage 22 (hereinafter referred to as “inlet side air temperature”). And an adhesive temperature sensor 33 (adhesive temperature detecting means) that detects the temperature near the discharge nozzle 14 of the adhesive dispenser 11 as the adhesive temperature.

  Output signals from the inlet side air temperature sensor 32 and the adhesive temperature sensor 33 are input to the adhesive temperature management computer 34. The adhesive temperature management computer 34 may be a computer that controls the component mounting machine. The adhesive temperature management computer 34 executes an adhesive temperature management program shown in FIG. 4 to be described later, whereby the adhesive temperature detected by the adhesive temperature sensor 33 and the inlet side detected by the inlet side air temperature sensor 32. By controlling the temperature of the temperature adjusting air based on the air temperature, the temperature of the adhesive in the adhesive dispenser 11 is managed so as to be maintained near the set temperature.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, when the adhesive temperature detected by the adhesive temperature sensor 33 is away from the set temperature by a predetermined temperature or more (for example, 2 ° C. or more), the inlet side air temperature and the set temperature The “rapid temperature control mode” is selected to adjust the adhesive temperature so as to rapidly change toward the set temperature by increasing the temperature difference between the temperature and the temperature. When the adhesive temperature detected by the adhesive temperature sensor 33 is within a predetermined temperature from the set temperature, the inlet side air temperature detected by the inlet side air temperature sensor 32 is the set temperature (or the vicinity thereof). Select “Heat retention mode” to adjust as follows.

  Here, the rising speed of the adhesive temperature during execution of the rapid temperature control mode varies depending on the amount of adhesive in the adhesive dispenser 11, and the lower the amount of adhesive, the faster the rising speed of the adhesive temperature and the set temperature. It becomes easy to overshoot over. Therefore, the adhesive temperature (set temperature ± predetermined temperature) when switching from the rapid temperature control mode to the heat retention mode is within the allowable temperature range (set temperature ±) even when the amount of adhesive in the adhesive dispenser 11 is small. It is set not to overshoot beyond the allowable temperature change.

  The adhesive temperature management described above is executed by the adhesive temperature management computer 34 in accordance with the adhesive temperature management program shown in FIG. The adhesive temperature management program of FIG. 4 is executed at a predetermined cycle during operation of the component mounting machine, and plays a role as a heat exchange medium temperature adjusting means in the claims.

  When the adhesive temperature management program of FIG. 4 is started, first, in step 101, the adhesive temperature detected by the adhesive temperature sensor 33 and the inlet side air temperature detected by the inlet side air temperature sensor 32 are read. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step 102, where it is determined whether the adhesive temperature is a predetermined temperature or more away from the set temperature (| set temperature-adhesive temperature |> predetermined temperature), and the adhesive temperature is set. If it is away from the temperature by a predetermined temperature or more, the process proceeds to step 103, and the temperature adjustment mode is set to the rapid temperature adjustment mode.

  During execution of the rapid temperature adjustment mode, in step 104, the adhesive temperature is compared with “set temperature ± predetermined temperature”. If the adhesive temperature is lower than “set temperature−predetermined temperature”, the process proceeds to step 105, The inlet side air temperature is adjusted to a temperature considerably higher than the set temperature (set temperature + ΔT) by the air temperature adjusting device 31 so that the adhesive temperature can be rapidly heated. Thereby, the adhesive in the adhesive dispenser 11 is rapidly heated, and the temperature of the adhesive is rapidly increased to “set temperature−predetermined temperature”.

  On the other hand, if “No” is determined in Step 104, that is, if the adhesive temperature is higher than “set temperature + predetermined temperature”, the process proceeds to Step 106, where air is used so that the adhesive can be rapidly cooled. The inlet side air temperature is adjusted to a temperature considerably lower than the set temperature (set temperature−ΔT) by the temperature adjusting device 31. Thereby, the adhesive in the adhesive dispenser 11 is rapidly cooled, and the adhesive temperature is rapidly lowered to “set temperature + predetermined temperature”.

  When the adhesive temperature detected by the adhesive temperature sensor 33 falls within a predetermined temperature from the set temperature during the execution of the rapid temperature control mode (when the set temperature−adhesive temperature | ≦ the predetermined temperature). In Step 102, “No” is determined, and the process proceeds to Step 107 to switch the temperature control mode to the heat retention mode.

  While the heat retention mode is being executed, the air temperature adjusting device 31 adjusts the inlet side air temperature to the set temperature (or the vicinity thereof) in step 108. Thereby, the temperature of the adhesive in the adhesive dispenser 11 is maintained at the set temperature (or the vicinity thereof).

  According to the first embodiment described above, when the temperature of the adhesive in the adhesive dispenser 11 is raised from the cooled state to the set temperature, first, in the rapid temperature control mode, the inlet side air temperature and the set temperature are The temperature difference is increased and the adhesive temperature is rapidly raised toward the set temperature. Thereafter, when the adhesive temperature detected by the adhesive temperature sensor 33 falls within the predetermined temperature from the set temperature, the rapid temperature adjustment is performed. Since the mode is switched from the heat retention mode, the time required to raise the temperature of the adhesive from the cooled state to the set temperature can be shortened by the rapid temperature control mode, and the temperature difference between the adhesive temperature and the set temperature can be reduced. By switching from the rapid temperature adjustment mode to the heat retention mode when the temperature falls within the specified temperature, the adhesive temperature will overshoot beyond the allowable temperature range (set temperature ± allowable temperature change). Can be prevented by de, it is possible to achieve both the overshoot prevention by speed and thermal inertia of the temperature control of the adhesive.

  Moreover, in the first embodiment, the adhesive temperature sensor 33 detects the timing for switching from the rapid temperature adjustment mode to the heat retention mode in consideration of the fact that the adhesive temperature has a follow-up delay with respect to the inlet side air temperature. Judgment was made based on the temperature difference between the adhesive temperature and the set temperature, so the maximum execution time of the rapid temperature control mode was maximized within a range that could reliably prevent overshoot (adhesive temperature rise) due to thermal inertia. Can be as long as possible. Further, in the heat retaining mode, the inlet side air temperature detected by the inlet side air temperature sensor 32 is adjusted so as to be the set temperature (or the vicinity thereof), so that it is not swung around by a subtle change in the actual adhesive temperature, The adhesive temperature can be stably maintained at the set temperature (or the vicinity thereof).

  In the heat retention mode, the temperature of the temperature adjusting air on the outlet 25 side of the temperature adjusting passages 22 and 23 (hereinafter referred to as “exit side air temperature”) is considered to substantially match the adhesive temperature. In Example 2, instead of the inlet side air temperature sensor 32 (inlet side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means), an outlet side air temperature sensor (outlet side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means) for detecting the outlet side air temperature is provided and bonded. In the case where the temperature of the adhesive in the agent dispenser 11 is raised from the cooled state to the set temperature, first, in the rapid temperature control mode similar to that in Example 1, the adhesive temperature is rapidly increased toward the set temperature, Thereafter, when the adhesive temperature detected by the adhesive temperature sensor 33 falls within a predetermined temperature from the set temperature, the rapid temperature control mode is switched to the heat retention mode, and the outlet side air temperature detected by the outlet side air temperature sensor is set. Warm (Or its vicinity) is adjusted to be. The other points are the same as in the first embodiment.

  Also in the second embodiment, the same effect as in the first embodiment can be obtained. However, when the flow rate of the temperature adjusting air flowing through the temperature adjusting passages 22 and 23 is small, the outlet side air temperature may not match the adhesive temperature. Sometimes it is better to manage the temperature of the adhesive based on the inlet air temperature.

Even in the rapid temperature control mode, the adhesive temperature and the outlet side air temperature change with a certain degree of correlation, so that the adhesive temperature can be estimated from the outlet side air temperature.
In consideration of this point, in the third embodiment of the present invention, both the inlet side air temperature sensor 32 (inlet side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means) and the outlet side air temperature sensor (outlet side heat exchange medium temperature detecting means) are provided. Provided, the adhesive temperature sensor 33 (adhesive temperature detection means) is omitted, and when the outlet side air temperature detected by the outlet side air temperature sensor is more than a predetermined temperature from the set temperature of the adhesive, The “rapid temperature control mode” is selected in which the temperature difference between the temperature and the set temperature is increased to adjust the adhesive temperature so as to rapidly change toward the set temperature. When the outlet side adhesive temperature detected by the outlet side air temperature sensor is within a predetermined temperature from the set temperature, the inlet side air temperature detected by the inlet side air temperature sensor 32 is set to the set temperature (or the vicinity thereof). ) Select “Heat retention mode”.

  In this case, if the estimated error of the adhesive temperature estimated from the outlet side air temperature is taken into account and the rapid temperature control mode is switched to the heat retention mode early with a margin of the estimated error, the temperature of the adhesive Can be prevented from overshooting beyond the allowable temperature range (set temperature ± allowable temperature change amount), and both speeding up of the adhesive temperature adjustment and prevention of overshooting due to thermal inertia can be achieved.

  By the way, it is necessary to correct the application position of the adhesive before starting the operation of applying the adhesive to the circuit board by the adhesive dispenser 11 sucked and held by the mounting head of the component mounting machine.

  The conventional method for correcting the application position of the adhesive is to perform discarding (trial application), and image processing is performed to correct the application position of the adhesive. In the mounting machine, since the adhesive dispenser 11 is frequently replaced, if the discarding is performed every time the adhesive dispenser 11 is replaced during operation of the component mounting machine, the discarding is frequently performed. Prolongs production tact and causes productivity to decrease.

  Therefore, in Example 4, every time the adhesive dispenser 11 is replaced, the lower surface of the adhesive dispenser 11 sucked and held by the mounting head of the component mounter is imaged with a camera, and the lower surface of the adhesive dispenser 11 is The circular outer peripheral edge (circular gap 28 in FIGS. 1 and 5) of the nut member 27 concentrically positioned with the discharge nozzle 14 is recognized by image processing, and the circular outer peripheral edge (circular circle) of the nut member 27 is recognized. The center position of the annular gap 28) is calculated, and the center position is regarded as the position of the discharge nozzle 14 (adhesive application position) to correct the adhesive application position. The other points are the same as any one of the first to third embodiments.

  In the fourth embodiment described above, since it is not necessary to perform discarding every time the adhesive dispenser 11 is replaced, production tact can be shortened, productivity can be improved, and the number of places for discarding can be reduced. Also become.

  In the fifth embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 6, two dot-like position recognition marks 37 and 38 are formed on the lower surface of the adhesive dispenser 11 with a fixed positional relationship with the discharge nozzle 14. Each time the adhesive dispenser 11 is replaced, the lower surface of the adhesive dispenser 11 sucked and held by the mounting head of the component mounter is imaged with a camera, and the two positions of the lower surface of the adhesive dispenser 11 are recognized. The positions of the marks 37 and 38 are recognized by image processing, and assuming the triangles having the two position recognition marks 37 and 38 and the positions of the discharge nozzles 14 as vertices, the positions of the two position recognition marks 37 and 38 are determined. The position of the discharge nozzle 14 (adhesive application position) is calculated from the position, and the adhesive application position is corrected. The other points are the same as any one of the first to third embodiments.

In the fifth embodiment described above, the same effect as in the fourth embodiment can be obtained.
In place of the two point-like position recognition marks 37 and 38, for example, a single linear position recognition mark is formed, and the position of the discharge nozzle 14 is determined by using this linear position recognition mark as a base. The position of the discharge nozzle 14 is calculated assuming a triangle with the apex at the top, or the discharge nozzle 14 is positioned at the center of a straight line connecting two position recognition marks. The position of the nozzle 14 may be calculated.
