  Next, the operation of the seat mounting apparatus 10 will be described. First, when the raw fabric RS is set as shown in FIG. 1B and an operation start signal is input via an operation means such as an operation panel or a personal computer (not shown), the supply means 20 is connected to the rotation motor 24 and the illustration. Drive the drive device that does not, and feed out the raw fabric RS. Then, when a detection means (not shown) such as an optical sensor or an imaging means detects that the adhesive sheet AS positioned on the upper part of the peeling plate 23 has reached a predetermined position, the supply means 20 is connected to the rotation motor 24 and a drive device (not shown). The drive is stopped and a standby state is entered.

  Next, a transporting means (not shown) such as a human hand or an articulated robot or a belt conveyor transports the mounted body WK onto the support means 60, and the convex portion WK3 of the mounted body WK is inserted into the convex portion insertion portion 31A of the holding member 31. Position it directly below. Thereafter, the supply means 20 drives the rotation motor 24 and a driving device (not shown), feeds the original fabric RS by a predetermined amount, and peels the adhesive sheet AS from the release sheet RL by the release plate 23. The holding means 30 drives a decompression means (not shown), and holds at least the end of the adhesive portion AS2 from the base sheet BS side of the adhesive sheet AS in a state where the through hole AS1 substantially coincides with the opening of the convex portion insertion portion 31A. Adsorbed and held on the surface 31C.

  Thereafter, the mounting means drives the linear motor 40 to lower the holding member 31 that holds the adhesive sheet AS, and as shown in FIG. 2A, the convex portion WK3 of the mounted body WK is moved to the convex portion insertion portion 31A. The through hole AS1 is inserted into the projection WK3 of the mounted body WK and mounted. Next, the pressing means 50 drives the linear motor 52, moves the pressing member 51 to the left as shown by the solid line in FIG. 2B, and inserts the pressing member 51 into the pressing member insertion portion 31B. Thereby, the pressing member 51 is arrange | positioned directly on the adhesive sheet AS hold | maintained so that the lower surface opening of the pressing member insertion part 31B may be plugged, as shown to the continuous line in FIG.2 (C). Thereafter, the holding means 30 stops driving the decompression means (not shown), and the pressing means 50 drives the linear motor 53, so that the pressing member 51 is elastic as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIGS. It moves in a direction intersecting with the holding surface 31C while being deformed. Thereby, the adhesive part AS2 of the adhesive sheet AS is bent by the pressing member 51 so as to cover the main body part WK1 in the vicinity of the through hole AS1, and is attached to the main body part WK1.

  Next, the mounting means drives the linear motor 40, the pressing means 50 drives the linear motors 52 and 53, and the holding member 31 and the pressing member 51 are returned to the positions shown in FIG. Thereafter, the mounted body WK on which the adhesive sheet AS is mounted is transported to the next step by a transport means (not shown), and thereafter the same operation as described above is repeated.

  According to the embodiment as described above, the holding member 31 includes the holding surface 31C, the convex portion insertion portion 31A, and the pressing member insertion portion 31B, the pressing unit 50 includes the first moving unit 52, and the second moving unit 52B.

Moreover, such an adhesive sheet has, for example, a single layer having only an adhesive layer, an intermediate layer between the base material sheet and the adhesive layer, a cover layer on the upper surface of the base material sheet, etc. 3 It may be a layer or more, or a so-called double-sided adhesive sheet that can peel the base sheet from the adhesive layer, and the double-sided adhesive sheet has a single-layer or multi-layer intermediate layer. Or a single layer or multiple layers without an intermediate layer. Moreover, the material of the to-be-mounted body WK is not specifically limited, For example, members, articles | goods, etc. of arbitrary forms, such as glass, steel, earthenware, paper, wood, or resin, can also be made into object. Furthermore, the shapes of the main body WK1 and the protrusion WK3 in the mounted body WK may be other shapes such as a cylindrical shape, a prism shape, a conical shape, and a pyramid shape. It should be noted that the adhesive sheet AS is replaced with a functional and application reading, for example, an arbitrary sheet, film, tape, etc. of an arbitrary shape such as an information description label, a decorative label, a protective sheet, a recording layer forming resin sheet, etc. It can be affixed to an arbitrary mounted body WK as described above.

In addition, each means and process in the present invention is not limited in any way as long as the operation or function described for the means and process can be achieved, and moreover, it is merely a component of one embodiment shown in the above embodiment.
