BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a position control device for a component mounter that regulates the position of the component when mounting the component on a circuit board by the component mounter.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional position regulating device for a component mounter will be described below.

As shown in FIG. 7, two pairs of position regulating pawls 3 and 4 in the XY directions provided around the suction nozzle 2 are opened and closed, and as shown in FIG. 1
The front face of the position adjusting claws 3 and 4 is pressed against the side surface of the device and is clamped to correct the positional deviation of the component 1, and the component 1 is accurately mounted on the circuit board (for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 63-1).
4500 gazette).

[0004]

However, in the above-described conventional configuration, when the position of the component 1 is regulated, the component 1 becomes large, and when the regulation range of the position regulating claws 3 and 4 is exceeded, the regulation cannot be performed. Since it is necessary to replace the position regulating claw having a regulation range corresponding to the size of the component 1, when mounting several types of components having different shapes on the circuit board,
There is a problem in that it cannot be mounted with only one type of two pairs of position regulating nails.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the prior art. A component that can be accurately mounted on a circuit board by regulating the position of the component with a pair of position regulating claws of one type regardless of changes in the length of the component. It is an object to provide a position control device for a mounting machine.

[0006]

In order to achieve this object, the position regulating device for a component mounting machine of the present invention is a device having a concave portion or a convex portion on the side surface whose dimensions do not change, and the concave portion or the convex portion thereof is used. It is configured to include a position regulating claw having a convex or concave standard front surface that can be position-controlled by sandwiching.

[0007]

In this structure, the concave portion or the convex portion formed on the component is sandwiched by the convex or concave front face of the position regulating pawl.

[0008]

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

(First Embodiment) A first embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

As described in the above-mentioned conventional example, the position regulating pawls provided around the suction nozzle are, as shown in FIG. 1A, a convex portion provided on the side surface of the component on each of the pair of position regulating pawls 8. This is a configuration provided with a concave wheel face 7 that is provided so as to sandwich and hold the position of the wheel.

As shown in FIG. 2, the convex portion 5 on the side surface of the component 6 is formed.
1 (b), the concave front face 7 of the position regulating claw 8 is pressed against the convex portion 5 of the component 6 to adjust the position of the component 6 attracted to the nozzle. Is enabled by the pair of position adjusting claws 8.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, a pair of position regulating claws is formed by pressing the concave face 10 of the position regulating claw 9 against a corner 11a of a component 11 having a rectangular cross section without a protrusion. The component 11 can be positioned by being sandwiched by 9.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the lead terminal 1
Positioning claw 14 having a corrugated concavo-convex ruler face 15 according to the pitch dimension of the lead terminals 13 of the component 12 having
This allows the component 12 to be positioned. If the lead pitch of the component 12 is the same, the lead terminal 1 of the component 12
Regardless of the number of three, the same position regulating claw 14 can be used to regulate the component 12.

(Second Embodiment) A second embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

As shown in FIG. 5 (a), each of the pair of position regulating claws 16 is provided with a convex front face which is provided so as to sandwich the concave portion provided on the side surface of the component to enable the position regulation. 1
7 is provided.

As shown in FIG. 5, in order to sandwich the component 19 having the concave portion 18 on its side surface, as shown in FIG.
Align the convex front face 17 of the position adjusting claw 16 with the concave portion 1 of the component 19.
The position control of the component 19 pressed against the nozzle 8 and adsorbed to the nozzle is made possible by the pair of position control claws 16.

[0017]

As is apparent from the above description of the embodiments, the present invention is directed to a part having a concave portion or a convex portion on the side surface whose size does not change, and the positional regulation is performed by sandwiching the concave portion or the convex portion. Due to the configuration with the position control claw having a convex or concave standard front face, regardless of the change in the length of the part, the position of the part can be accurately adjusted by one type of position control claw to accurately It is possible to realize an excellent position control device for a component mounter that can be mounted on the.
