11 is supported by the board guide roller 212,
The V-shaped groove 912a of the member 912 provided on the lower surface of the rear end of the test board 9 fits on the board guide roller 213, so that the test board 9 is positioned on the conveyor 21 in the direction crossing the feed direction α. It can be placed and moved in a state where it is moved.

The position of the test board 9 in the feed direction α is determined by, for example, using a flat roller such as the board guide roller 212 as the board guide roller 213 in addition to this embodiment. It is also possible to use a method in which a free roller arranged at a fixed position is brought into contact from the side, and a free roller provided with a spring force is brought into contact with an end face on the front side. The same applies to the positioning of the test board 9 on the test area conveyor 10 and the like which will be described later.

5) comes into contact with the piston rod 51a. But,
The pushing force of the test board 9 by the inlet pusher 3 is stronger than the reaction force of the reaction force pusher 5 supported by the air cylinder 55. Therefore, the piston rod 51a is tested while the piston rod 51a is in contact with the contact member 915b. The board 9 moves backward in the feeding direction α, and stops when the pushing of the test board 9 by the inlet pusher 3 is completed.

In this state, the test board 9 in the test area TA is pushed by the inlet pusher 3 on the entrance side of the test area TA, and is supported by the reaction force pusher 5 on the exit side of the test area TA.

FIG. 10 shows the second latch drive roller 71 from the right end in FIG. 9 and the tape guide roller 72 combined therewith. FIG. 10A is a side view thereof, and FIG. 10B is a plan view thereof. FIG. Latch drive roller 7
Numeral 1 is rotatably supported by an apparatus frame F4 installed above the exit station 4, and faces the track of the latch 933 in the package socket 93 on the test board 9 pushed out from the test area TA. The peripheral edge portion 71a of each latch driving roller 71 is formed in an arc surface so as to smoothly start contacting the latch 933 and rotate it to the unlock position. On the other hand, the latch 933 also has an arcuate surface 933a (see FIG. 14) so as to smoothly start contacting the latch drive roller 71 and to be pushed to the unlock position as the latch 933 advances.

Therefore, the test board 9 pushed out of the test area TA is moved to the exit station 4 shown in FIG.
Is sent to the latch drive roller 71 by the roller conveyer 41 in FIG. 4, as the test board 9 advances, each latch drive roller 71 hits a corresponding one of the latches 933 in each package socket 93 of the corresponding package socket 93 row. And pushes the latch 933 from the locked position to the unlocked position as the test board 9 advances. Thus, each socket lid 932 is automatically raised and opened by the spring force, so that the package tape PT can be pulled out from each package socket 93. In this way, as each row of package sockets 93 on the test board 9 passes through each latch drive roller 71, each socket lid 932 in each row of package sockets 93 is opened one after another. Immediately downstream of each of the latch driving rollers 71, optical switches 711 and 712 for detecting the opening of each set of the socket lids 932 are provided. When the socket lids 932 are opened and rise up, the socket lids are raised. The optical paths of the optical switches 711 and 712 that detect the opening of the body 932 are cut off, and the opening of the socket cover 932 is confirmed. If the opening of the socket lid 932 is not detected here, all operations of the movable parts in the TCP continuous test apparatus are stopped based on an instruction from a control unit (not shown) for controlling the entire apparatus.

The tape guide roller 72 guides the package tape PT that is wound on the tape take-up reel 73b of the reel support device 73, which will be described later, from the package socket 93 with the socket lid 932 opened. The package tape PT may be removed because the rotation speed of the tape take-up reel 73b is too high and the take-up speed is too high, or the package tape PT is not peeled off from the package socket 93 properly.
If take-off tension is increased, concomitantly swung rises as shown by the two-dot chain line in (A) FIG. 10, provided for each tape guide roller 72, the tape guide roller 72
The optical path in the pair of optical switches 722 and 723 that detects the signal is interrupted. By this light path interruption, a control unit (not shown) instructs the stop of the tape take-up reel 73b. In this way, the tape take-up reel 73b is temporarily stopped, whereby the package tape PT is slackened, and when the tension is reduced, the tape guide roller 72 swings down accordingly. When the optical paths of the optical switches 722 and 723 for detecting the tape guide roller 72 by the swinging down pass,
The take-up reel 73b is operated again. In this way, the package tape PT that is peeled off from the package socket 93 and wound up on the take-up reel 73b is prevented from being damaged.

Make sure that T can be wound together.

Further, the test boards 9 are arranged on the entirety of the entrance station 2, the roller conveyor 10 in the test area TA and the exit station 4 in such a manner that adjacent test boards 9 are in close contact with each other. In addition, the thermostat 100 is operated, and the test area T
A is maintained at a predetermined package test temperature. When the preparation for the package test is completed in this way, the four rows of package tapes PT pulled out from the tape guide plate 124 at the entrance station 2 are put into the entrance station 2.
Then, the socket cover 932 of each package socket 93 is closed, and this is locked by the latch 933. When the package tape PT is mounted on one test board 9 in this manner, the piston rods 31a of the pair of air cylinders 31 are raised at the inlet pusher 3 shown in detail in FIGS.
Into the hole 915 of the base pallet 91 of the test board 9 to which the package tape PT is attached. In this state, the servo motor 37 is rotated forward to drive the piston rod 31a in the feed direction α of the test board 9 so that the piston rod 31a is engaged with the test board 9 and the test board 9 is moved in the feed direction α. Is extruded onto the roller conveyor 10 in the test area TA by a distance of the width W.

When the test board 9 is pushed out, the test board 9 pushed out from the test area TA at the exit station 4 comes into contact with the braking device 6 (FIG. 8) at the exit station 4 while braking the inertia force.
Each of the adjacent test boards 9 is pushed out while maintaining a state of being in contact with each other. When the test board 9 is pushed out from the test area TA to some extent while being braked by the braking device 6, the board detection sensor SW shown in FIG. 8 detects the arrival of the test board 9, and at that timing, the exit is detected. The piston rods 51a of the pair of air cylinders 51 in the reaction force pusher 5 facing the station 4 are raised and fitted into and engaged with the holes 915 of the base pallet 91 of the test board 9 which has been pushed out. In the reaction force pusher 5, the piston rod 55a of the air cylinder 55 is projected in advance in the direction opposite to the feed direction α of the test board 9 before this operation.

Thus, as the test board 9 is pushed out of the entrance station 2 into the test area TA, the piston rod 51a of the reaction force pusher 5 engages with the test board 9 pushed out there at the exit station 4, whereby the test board 9 is pushed out. Retreat while supporting the test board 9. In this manner, the adjacent test boards 9 reliably maintain a state of contact with each other.

When the test board 9 is pushed out of the entrance station 2 by a width W in the feed direction α into the test area TA, the piston rod 3
1a is lowered, and then the servo motor 37 is rotated in the reverse direction and retracts to the initial position. On the other hand, also in the reaction force pusher 5, the piston rod 51a descends and the piston rod 55
a protrudes again in preparation for the next instruction. Then, at the entrance station 2, the operation of pushing out the next test board 9 on which the package tape PT is mounted into the test area TA by the entrance pusher 3 is started, and the above operation is repeated, so that the contact device E is brought into the test area TA. A predetermined number of package tape PT-attached test boards 9 corresponding to the number are arranged in contact with each other, and each test board 9 faces the corresponding contact device E.

In this state, in each contact device E, the air cylinder e1 lowers the card connector e2, and the card connector e2 is inserted into the connector connection portion 94 on each test board 9, and a predetermined package test is performed. By the way, since the test boards 9 are successively pushed out to the test area TA as described above, the endmost test boards 9 move out one after another at the exit station 4, but the test boards 9 which move in this way are moved. Is received by the elevator 812 of the elevator apparatus 81, lowered, and then transferred to the return conveyor 82, and is transferred to the elevator 832 of the elevator apparatus 83 facing the entrance station 2 by the operation of the return conveyor 82. The elevator 832 receives the empty test board 9, rises and sends it to the exit station 2 for mounting the package tape PT. In this way, the test board 9 circulates from the exit station 4 to be returned to the entrance station 2 again by the board return device 8.

When a predetermined number of package tape PT-attached test boards 9 are arranged in the test area TA and a package test is started, the inlet pusher 3 keeps the piston rod 31 a engaged with the test board 9. On the other hand, in the reaction force pusher 5, the piston rod 51a is kept engaged with the test board 9, and thus the test board 9 in the test area TA is sandwiched between the inlet pusher 3 and the reaction force pusher 5 from both sides. In this state, the contact is accurately maintained, and the connection of the card connector e2 by each contact device E is reliably performed.

When the package test is completed, the piston rod 31a descends at the inlet pusher 3 and returns to the initial position, and the piston rod 51a also descends at the reaction force pusher 5, and the piston rod 5a moves downward.
5 a protrudes to support the test board 9. In this way, the package tape PT-attached test board 9 is sequentially pushed out to the test area TA in order to perform the next package test again.

As the test board 9 is pushed out, the test boards 9 whose package tests have been completed are successively pushed out to the exit station 4.
The latch driving rollers 71 arranged corresponding to the three rows wait, and the latch driving rollers 71 abut against the latches 933 of the package socket 93 on the test board 9, and as the test board 9 is pushed out and advances, the The latch 933 is rotated by the latch driving roller 71 to the unlock position.

Thus, the socket lid 932 of each package socket 93 is automatically opened by the spring force, and the package tape PT can be pulled out therefrom. Test board 9 that comes out first after package test is completed
The upper package tape PT is connected to the tape take-up reel 73b in the reel support device 73 after the socket lid 932 is opened. At this time, the package tape PT wound up is guided by the tape guide roller 72.

As the test boards 9 which have been subjected to the package test are successively pushed out, the latches 933 of the respective package sockets 93 on the test board 9 are displaced to the unlock position, so that the socket lid 932 is formed.
Is opened and the package tested package tape PT is supplied from the package socket 93 to the tape guide roller 7.
2 while being sequentially wound on the tape winding reel 73b. At this time, the spacer tape ST is simultaneously fed from the tape feeding reel 73a on the reel supporting device 73, and is wound on the tape winding reel 73b together with the package test-completed package tape PT.

If the package tape PT pulling tension from the package socket 93 with the socket lid 932 opened to the tape take-up reel 73b increases for some reason, the tape guide roller 72 swings upward, and a set of tapes Optical switches 722 and 72 for detecting the guide roller 72
The optical path in 3 (see FIG. 9) is shut off, and the tape take-up reel 73b is stopped based on an instruction from a control unit (not shown). When the package tape PT is slackened due to this stop, the tape guide roller 72 swings down, and the optical path passes again, so that the tape winding reel 73b starts winding driving again. In this manner, winding of the package tape PT on the tape winding reel 73b is performed safely so that the package tape PT is not damaged.

Further, the opening of the socket lid 932 by the latch driving roller 71 is not smoothly performed, and the optical switches 711 and 712 for detecting the opening of the pair of socket lids 932 are not provided.
When (see FIG. 9) does not detect the opening of the socket lid 932, the operation of each movable unit is stopped based on an instruction from a control unit (not shown), and the safety of the package tape PT is maintained.

When the tape supply reel 11a becomes empty and the tape take-up reel 11b becomes full in the reel support device 11 of the tape supply device 1, as shown in FIG. The reel can be replaced by rotating to the replacement position. Also,
When the tape take-up reel 73b becomes full and the tape supply reel 73a becomes empty in the reel support device 73 of the tape take-up device 7, the reel support arm 733 is moved to the reel exchange position as shown in FIG. The reel can be rotated to exchange the reel.
