The add-on type reel holding device 7 is mounted on the front rod-shaped mounting seat 38 and the rear rod-shaped mounting seat 39 from above. The front concave mounting portion 721 engages the front rod-shaped mounting seat 38 from above, and the rear concave mounting portion 717 engages the rear rod-shaped mounting seat 39 from above. Therefore, the additional mounting of the add-on type reel holding device 7 is very easy by simply placing it.

The position of the add-on reel holding device 7 in the front-rear direction (Y-axis direction) is determined by the engagement at a total of four locations. Further, the rear end portion 713 of the side plate 71 of the additional type reel holding device 7 enters between the adjacent partition plates 352 of the standard reel holding portion 35 or between the partition plate 352 and the side plate 351 . As a result, the add-on type reel holding device 7 is restricted from moving in the X-axis direction.

3. Operation of Additional Type Reel Holding Device 7 According to the above configuration, the standard reel holding section 35 can hold 40 tape reels TR, and the seven additional type reel holding devices 7 can hold a total of 35 tape reels. TR can be held. As a result, the total number of carrier tapes CT that can be fed to the feeder devices 81 and 82 increases from 40 at the beginning to 75 after the add-on type reel holding device 7 is attached. Since the add-on type reel holding device 7 is arranged farther than the standard reel holding section 35 when viewed from the feeder devices 81 and 82, even if the carrier tape CT is fed in a slightly oblique direction, a problem will occur. do not have.

According to the embodiment, even if a new type of feeder device is attached to the feeder attachment portion 32 and it becomes necessary to feed a larger number of carrier tapes CT than before, the total number of carrier tapes CT that can be fed does not run short. For example, a carrier tape that can be fed even when 35 autoloading feeder devices 82 and multi-feeder devices requiring two tape reels per slot and 5 conventional feeder devices 81 are used in combination. The total number of CTs is sufficient.

Also, the number of additional reel holding devices 7 to be arranged in the X-axis direction can be freely selected within the range of one shown in FIG. 5 to seven shown in FIG. Furthermore, as indicated by an arrow M in FIG. 5, the mounting position of the add-on reel holding device 7 can be changed to a desired position in the X-axis direction. In other words, the number and mounting positions of the add-on type reel holding devices 7 can be freely changed according to the types of the feeder devices 81 and 82, the number of mounted feeders, and the arrangement.

In the example of FIG. 3, the auto-loading feeder device 82 uses the first carrier tape CT fed from the tape reel TR of the standard reel holding section 35 . Also, the auto-loading feeder device 82 holds the leading end of the second carrier tape CT fed from the tape reel TR of the add-on type reel holding device 7, and is ready for the next use. That is, the additional tape reel TR of the add-on type reel holding device 7 is used after the tape reel TR held by the standard reel holding section 35 .

The first and second carrier tapes CT are each fed obliquely rearward and upward from the tape reel TR, and are inserted from the tape insertion port on the front side of the autoloading feeder device 82 . The first and second carrier tapes CT are vertically separated from each other at positions close to the tape reel TR, and approach each other toward the autoloading feeder device 82 . According to this, the feeding routes of the first and second carrier tapes CT are not complicated.

In the automatic loading feeder device 82, when the first carrier tape CT runs out, the second carrier tape CT is pulled out from the tape reel TR of the add-on type reel holding device 7. FIG. The operator removes from the standard reel holder 35 the empty tape reel TR that has finished feeding the first carrier tape CT at a suitable time. As a result, an idle reel holding position is generated in the standard reel holding portion 35 .

Next, the operator transfers the tape reel TR from which the second carrier tape CT is pulled out from the add-on type reel holding device 7 to the idle reel holding position of the standard reel holding section 35 . Furthermore, the operator sets the tape reel TR around which the third carrier tape CT holding the same type of component is wound in the empty reel holding space of the add-on type reel holding device 7 . Next, the operator pulls out the leading end of the third carrier tape CT and inserts it into the auto loading feeder device 82 . The replacement work of the tape reel TR described above can be performed even while the component mounting machine 1 is in operation. Therefore, the automatic loading feeder device 82 does not interrupt the supply of parts even if the splicing work is not performed.

Further, the multi-feeder device mounted on the feeder mounting section 32 uses the tape reel TR held by the standard reel holding section 35 and the additional tape reel TR of the add-on type reel holding device 7 at the same time. At this time, the splicing work can be performed in the standard reel holding section 35 and the additional reel holding device 7 even while the mounter 1 is in operation. According to this, the multi-feeder device can alternately supply two types of components by feeding and returning each carrier tape CT fed from two tape reels TR. Also, in the multi-feeder device, as in the case of the auto-loading feeder device 82, the feeding routes of the first and second carrier tapes CT are not complicated.

4. Aspects and Effect of Additional Type Reel Holding Device 7 The additional type reel holding device 7 includes a plurality of feeder devices 81 and 82 for sequentially feeding the components by unreeling the carrier tapes CT holding a plurality of components, and the carrier tapes CT.

Further, the add-on reel holding device 7 is mounted on the front side of the standard reel holding section 35 away from the feeder devices 81,82. According to this, even if the carrier tape CT fed from the add-on type reel holding device 7 is fed in a slightly oblique direction, no problem occurs. Further, the two carrier tapes CT fed from the standard reel holding section 35 and the add-on type reel holding device 7 do not have complicated feeding routes. Therefore, the operational reliability of the component supply device 3 is high.

Furthermore, when the multi-feeder device is used, the additional tape reel TR is used simultaneously with the tape reel TR held by the standard reel holding section 35 . Further, when the auto loading feeder device 82 is used, the additional tape reel TR is used after the tape reel TR held by the standard reel holding section 35, and is the tape reel held by the standard reel holding section 35. When the TR is removed to create an idle reel holding position, it is transferred to that reel holding position.

According to these, the add-on type reel holding device 7 can perform the replacement work of the tape reel TR and the splicing work of the carrier tape CT even while the component mounter 1 is in operation, and is excellent in workability.
