Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a taped electronic component storage reel that winds up and stores a band-shaped taped electronic component series to which electronic components such as chip components are taped. , relates to a structure for fixing the final end of a series of taped electronic components wound up on the storage reel.

[Conventional technology]

This type of taped electronic component storage reel (hereinafter referred to as a storage reel) is generally constructed by providing large-diameter reel side plates on both sides of the reel body, which is the winding core, and between the pair of opposing reel side plates. Another method is to wind up and store a belt-shaped series of taped electronic components made by taping together a large number of electronic components such as chip components. By fixing the final end of the wound series of taped electronic components with an appropriate means, a large number of electronic components can be stored efficiently, and when electronic components are mounted, the final end is unfixed. By taking out the taped electronic component series while rotating the storage reel, electronic components can be sequentially supplied to the automatic mounting machine.

Incidentally, in recent years, such storage reels made of plastic have become widely used in consideration of workability and strength.

FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a conventional example of such a plastic storage reel, in which electronic components such as chip components are placed between a pair of opposing reel side plates 2 and 3 of the storage reel 1 using a carrier tape, for example. A belt-shaped series of taped electronic components 4 is wound up by taping with a cover tape and a cover tape at regular intervals. The final end portion 4a of the taped electronic component chain 4 is taped to the surface of the taped electronic component chain 4 that has already been wound up with an adhesive tape 5.

In addition, there is also known one in which the final end 4a of the taped electronic component chain 4 is pulled out to the outside of the reel side plate 2 (or 3) and fixed to the surface of the reel side plate 2 (or 3) with adhesive tape 5. It is being

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, in the case of the conventional example shown in FIG.
The final end 4a of the taped electronic component chain 4 is taped between the narrow reel side plates 2 and 3, and when mounting electronic components, the adhesive tape 5 is peeled off by inserting a finger between the narrow reel side plates 2 and 3. Therefore, there was a problem in that the work of fixing and releasing the fixing of the final end portion 4a became complicated. Furthermore, when a normal transparent tape is used as the adhesive tape, there are also disadvantages such as difficulty in finding the tape fixing part.

Also, the final end 4a of the taping electronic component series 4
When pulled out to the outside of the reel side plate and fixed with tape, the final end 4a can be easily fixed or unfixed, but on the other hand, if the final end 4a crosses over the outer periphery of the reel side plate and touches the outer periphery. Since the contacting part is not regulated in position, the final end 4a is likely to be misaligned along the outer periphery due to vibration during transportation, and there is a risk that the rolled-up taped electronic component series 4 may come undone. Ta.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a storage reel that allows the final end of a series of taped electronic components to be easily fixed and unfixed, and that does not cause the final end to be misaligned during storage. It's about doing.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides notches wider than the width of the final end of the series of taped electronic components at multiple locations on the outer peripheral edge of the reel side plate, and the final end inserted into the notches. The structure is such that the position of the portion is regulated approximately in the width direction.

[Effect]

According to the above means, by inserting the final end of the wound taped electronic component series into the notch of the reel side plate, it is possible to prevent the final end from shifting. By pulling it out to the outside of the reel side plate through the notch and fixing it with an adhesive tape pad, fixing and unfixing operations can be easily performed without impairing reliability during storage.

〔Example〕

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

Figures 1 and 2 are for explaining one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 is a perspective view of the main parts of the storage reel, and Figure 2 is a side view of the storage reel. 4 is a series of taping electronic components, 4a is the final end thereof, 5 is an adhesive tape, 6 is the entire storage reel, 7 and 8 are reel side plates, 7a and 8a are the outer peripheral edges thereof, 9 is the reel body, 10, 11 is a notch.

In these figures, the storage reel 6 is made of plastic, and has a pair of opposing reel side plates 7,
8, and a reel body 9 sandwiched between both reel side plates 7, 8. Notches 10, 11 are formed at four locations at approximately equal intervals on the outer peripheral edges 7a, 8a of these reel side plates 7, 8, respectively, and the width w of these notches 10, 11 is determined by the taping electronic component. The width is set slightly wider than the width of the final end 4a of the series 4.

Now, the above taped electronic component series 4 is made by taping the electronic components equivalent to chip components with, for example, a carrier tape and a cover tape at regular intervals.
is wound between the pair of reel side plates 7 and 8 of the storage reel 6, that is, around the reel body 9. When fixing the final end 4a of the taped electronic component series 4, When winding is completed, the outer final end 4a is inserted into one of the notches 10 (or 11) located near the final end 4a, and the tip of the final end 4a is glued as shown in FIG. Using adhesive tape 5, tape it to the surface of the reel side plate 7 (or 8).

In this way, when the final end 4a of the wound taped electronic component chain 4 is inserted into the notch 10 and pulled out to the outside of the reel side plate 7 and is secured with tape, the final end 4a Not only is it easy to fix and unfix, but the movement of the final end 4a along the circumferential direction of the reel side plate 7 is restricted by the notch 10, so even if vibrations are applied during transportation, the final end 4a will not move easily. There is no fear that the portion 4a will be misaligned, and workability and reliability can be improved.

Note that the final end 4a of the taping electronic component series 4
may be inserted into the notch 11 and taped to the surface of the reel side plate 8.

Further, in the above embodiment, the square reel side plates 7 and 8 are provided with four notches 10 and 11, respectively, but it goes without saying that the number of cutouts is not limited to four. A notch may be provided only on one side.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a main part of a storage reel according to another embodiment of the present invention, showing notches 10 and 11 provided on outer peripheral edges 7a and 8a of reel side plates 7 and 8, respectively.
is inclined inward, and the outer peripheral edge 7 is not cut out on the outside of these notches 10, 11.
This embodiment differs from the previous embodiment in that a and 8a remain. As a result, even if it becomes necessary to make the outer shape of the reel side plates 7, 8 circular for storage reasons, etc., the notches 10, 11 that regulate the position of the final end 4a of the taping electronic component series 4 can be made circular. It becomes possible to provide

[Effect of idea]

As explained above, according to the present invention, by inserting the final end of the wound series of taped electronic components into the notch of the reel side plate, displacement of the final end can be prevented. If the final end is pulled out to the outside of the reel side plate through the notch and fixed with adhesive tape, etc., the final end can be secured and fixed without compromising reliability during storage. Can be easily released, improving reliability and workability.
