[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention provides a transparent member such as a glass plate in a sealing cap for sealing an optical electronic component such as a can-seal type semiconductor laser when the optical electronic component is manufactured. The present invention relates to a device for inserting a light-transmitting member into a sealing cap of a can-seal type optical electronic component used for inserting and assembling and a method for inserting the same.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a charging device of this type, there is one shown in FIG. 9, for example. This conventional device
The transparent member m such as a glass plate set on the tray 4e can be taken out and held by using the suction head 5e having the vacuum suction holes 58. Then, the suction head 5e moves in the direction of the arrow d after the light transmissive member m is taken out, so that the jig 1e is moved.
The transparent member m is transferred to a position right above the sealing cap C set upside down, and then the vacuum suction hole 58 is broken to cause the transparent member m to fall into the sealing cap C. It was designed to be thrown in.

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional charging device, the flat lower surface 59 of the suction head 5e is provided.
The opening 58 a of the vacuum suction hole 58 is provided in the opening 5.
It is merely a configuration in which the transparent member m is vacuum-adsorbed by the air suction action of 8a. Therefore, conventionally, when the transparent member m is put into the sealing cap C, the transparent member m cannot be inserted into the sealing cap C while being held by the suction head 5e. That is, when the transparent member m was put in, it was necessary to drop the transparent member m from a considerably high position above the sealing cap C.

As a result, conventionally, the sealing cap C has been used.
There is a problem that a light-transmissive member m rises in the inside of the container, or an improper loading occurs, or the light-transmissive member m is liable to be cracked or chipped due to an impact when dropped.

Further, conventionally, when the transparent member m is vacuum-sucked by the suction head 5e, the entire surface of the opening 58a of the vacuum suction hole 58 is closed by the transparent member m. Therefore, the vacuum state cannot be released early only by stopping the blower (or the vacuum pump) connected to the inside of the vacuum suction hole 58. In order to separate the translucent member m from the suction head 5e and accurately insert it into the sealing cap C, for example, pressurized air is supplied into the vacuum suction hole 58 to break the vacuum in the vacuum suction hole 58. Need to be actively done.

Therefore, in the prior art, when the above vacuum break is performed, the dusts that have been sucked up to the vacuum suction hole 58 flow back and are discharged from the opening 58a of the vacuum suction hole 58 to the outside. Becomes As a result, a large amount of dust adheres to the inside of the sealing cap C, which causes a defect in the quality of the optical electronic component, which is also a problem.

The present invention has been devised under such circumstances, and when the translucent member is put into the sealing cap of the can seal type optical / electronic component, the translucent member is used for sealing. Can stand up inside the cap or prevent it from being damaged by a strong impact so that it can be properly charged, and the situation where a large amount of dust adheres to the sealing cap, etc. The challenge is to improve the quality of optical and electronic components.

After that, the convex portion is provided so as to descend to a height at which it is inserted into the sealing cap so as to separate the transparent member from the suction head in a state where the transparent member is inserted into the sealing cap. And, in the convex portion of the suction head, a part of the opening portion of the vacuum suction hole or a portion different from the opening portion when the transparent member is suction-held at the lower end tip of the convex portion. The air suction port for sucking the outside air into the vacuum suction hole is provided in communication with the vacuum suction hole.

The intake port may be formed by providing a concave notch groove, which communicates with the opening of the vacuum suction hole, at the lower end tip surface of the convex portion of the suction head (claim 2).

The invention described in claim 3 of the present application is
2. The device for inserting a transparent member into a sealing cap of a can seal type optical electronic component according to claim 1, wherein the transparent member is a partition recess for partitioning and aligning a plurality of transparent members one by one. The tray is mounted on a tray on which the tray is formed, and the tray is provided with an inclining means for inclining the translucent member in the same direction to incline the tray so that the tray is brought into contact with the inner wall surface of each partitioning recess. It is characterized by being placed on a tray mounting table.

A sealing cap of a semiconductor laser for incorporating a laser diode is applied as the sealing cap, and an opening window portion formed in the sealing cap is sealed as the light transmitting member. It is possible to apply the glass plate of (Claim 4).

Further, in the invention according to claim 5 of the present application, the desired light-transmitting member set at a predetermined position is taken out by adsorbing it to the lower surface portion of the suction head where the vacuum suction hole is opened, and the suction is carried out. After holding it on the head,
This suction head is transferred to a position directly above the sealing cap of the can seal type optical / electronic component set in a jig, and then the light transmitting member is detached from the suction head, so that the light transmitting member is put into the sealing cap. A method of inserting a light-transmitting member into a sealing cap of a can seal type optical electronic component, wherein, as the suction head, an opening of the vacuum suction hole has a downward convex portion formed on a lower end tip surface, The convex portion has an intake port communicating with the inside of the vacuum suction hole so that external air can be sucked into the vacuum suction hole when the transparent member is sucked and held at the lower end of the convex portion. By using the suction head provided, the light transmissive member is held at the lower end of the convex portion of the suction head, and the translucent member is taken out from the predetermined position and transferred. After the light-transmitting member held by the suction head is transferred to directly above the sealing cap, the suction head is lowered to a height at which the convex portion of the suction head is inserted into the sealing cap, and It is characterized in that the transparent member is removed from the convex portion of the suction head by inserting the optical member into the sealing cap and then weakening the vacuum suction force of the vacuum suction hole or stopping the vacuum suction operation. There is.

The translucent member is preliminarily placed on a tray having a partitioning recess for partitioning and disposing a plurality of translucent members one by one, and each translucent member is sucked from this tray. Before taking out by, the tray is temporarily tilted so that each translucent member is moved in the same direction and brought into contact with the inner wall surface of each partitioning recess to align each translucent member. It may be (claim 6).

[0015]

In the device for inserting the transparent member into the sealing cap of the canseal type optical electronic component according to the present invention, the transparent member is inserted into the sealing cap by the downward convex shape of the suction head. This can be carried out by removing the light transmitting member from the convex portion of the suction head in a state where the light transmitting member held by the portion is inserted into the sealing cap. Therefore, unlike the conventional case where the translucent member is dropped from a considerably high position above the sealing cap, the translucent member does not unreasonably stand up in the sealing cap, and the It is possible to appropriately solve the problem that the translucent member is damaged by a large impact. As a result, it is possible to reduce the frequency of occurrence of manufacturing defects when assembling the translucent member.

Further, the convex portion of the suction head is provided with an intake port for sucking outside air into the vacuum suction hole when the transparent member is suction-held by the suction head. Therefore, when the translucent member is detached from the suction head, unlike the conventional case, it is not necessary to break the vacuum by supplying pressurized air to the vacuum suction holes. That is, since the vacuum suction hole communicates with the outside through the suction port, the vacuum state inside the vacuum suction hole is weakened only by stopping the vacuum suction force of the vacuum suction hole or weakening the vacuum suction force. The transparent member can be accurately separated from the suction head.

Therefore, when the translucent member is detached from the suction head, it is possible to prevent the dusts sucked in the vacuum suction holes from flowing back to the outside of the suction head and discharged. It is possible to prevent the dusts from unduly adhering to the inner surface side of the. As a result, there is an effect that the quality of the optical electronic component can be improved.

In particular, according to the present invention, when the translucent member is held by the suction head, external air is always sucked through the suction port. When it is inserted into the sealing cap, the dust in the sealing cap is sucked into the vacuum suction hole to be removed. Therefore, the dust in the sealing cap can be positively removed, and the quality of the optical electronic component can be further improved.

Further, according to the third aspect of the invention, when the tray mounting table for inclining the predetermined tray on which the translucent member is placed is provided, each translucent member is inclined by inclining the tray. Can be moved in the same direction and brought into contact with the inner wall surface of each partitioning recess of the tray. That is,
Accurate positioning or alignment of a plurality of translucent members can be performed with reference to the inner wall surface of each partition recess.

Therefore, when the light-transmitting member on the tray is subsequently sucked by the suction head and taken out to the outside, the suction head and the light-transmitting member can be accurately aligned with each other. Positioning can be accurately performed when the transparent member is moved into the sealing cap. As a result, it is possible to prevent the translucent member from being inserted into the sealing cap in an improperly biased state, and it is possible to further improve the quality of the optical electronic component, which is an excellent effect.

Further, in the method for inserting the transparent member into the sealing cap of the can seal type optical electronic component according to the invention of claim 5, the transparent member set at a predetermined position is provided with a downward convex portion of the suction head. The light-transmissive member can be inserted into the sealing cap by inserting the convex portion into the sealing cap after being held at the lower end of the sheet, taken out, and transferred. Then, by separating the transparent member from the suction head in this state, the transparent member can be put into the sealing cap. Further, since the suction port communicating with the vacuum suction hole is provided in the convex portion of the suction head, the work of detaching the transparent member from the suction head also weakens or stops the vacuum suction of the vacuum suction hole. It can be done accurately. Therefore, the same effect as described in the invention of claim 1 can be expected.

According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, the translucent member is preliminarily placed on a predetermined tray, and the translucent member is moved in the same direction by inclining the tray to divide the tray. The light transmissive member can be aligned by bringing it into contact with the inner wall surface of the recess for use. Therefore, the same effect as described in the invention of claim 3 can be obtained.

The opening 52a of the vacuum suction hole 52 is provided in the opening 1a.

Each vacuum suction hole 52 of the suction head 5 is
An air suction force by the blower is applied to the lower opening 52a side by connecting the connector 53 of the air pipe connected to the intake side of the blower (or the vacuum pump) to the upper opening 52b side. It is configured to allow. As a result, the glass plate m can be adsorbed and held on the lower end tip of each convex portion 51 by a vacuum suction action. The outer diameter D of each convex portion 51 is set to be smaller than the inner diameter of a sealing cap C described later, and the tip end side of this convex portion 51 is inserted into the sealing cap C. There is.

The lower end tip surface 51 of each of the convex portions 51 is
A concave cutout groove 54 communicating with the vacuum suction hole 52 is provided in a, and thus an intake port 55 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the convex portion 51. When forming the intake port 55, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, a means for providing two intake ports 55, 55 by forming notched grooves 54, 54 in series on the left and right sides of the vacuum suction hole 52 is provided. Can be adopted. However, in the present invention, the number of the intake ports 55 is not limited. For example, as shown in FIG.
The configuration may be provided only at the location. In addition, the notch groove 54 as described above is provided at three places or more, and the intake port 5
You may provide many 5.

In any case, the notch groove 54 provided in the convex portion 51 does not significantly reduce the vacuum suction force when the glass plate m is vacuum-sucked at the lower end of the convex portion 51. It is designed so that the glass plate m can be held securely. Further, when the glass plate m is held by the convex portion 51, a gap is created between the lower end tip surface 51 a of the convex portion 51 and the glass plate m, and external air is sucked from the suction port 55 to the vacuum suction hole 52. Is configured to be sucked into the interior of the.

In the present invention, it is not always necessary to form the intake port 55 by providing the notch groove 54 in the convex portion 51. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, a through hole 54 communicating with the vacuum suction hole 52 is formed in the side wall portion of the convex portion 51.
It does not matter if the intake port 55A is provided by forming A and the outside air is sucked from the intake port 55A toward the vacuum suction hole 52 side.

In FIG. 1, the operating body 6 is for performing the raising / lowering operation and the horizontal moving operation of the suction head 5. Specifically, the operating body 6 is provided with two reciprocating cylinders 60, 60 that support the suction head 5, and the rods 6 of the reciprocating cylinders 60, 60.
By the reciprocating operation of 0a, the suction head 5 is moved to the arrow N1,
It can be raised and lowered along the N2 direction.

The operating body 6 is supported by being inserted through two guide shafts 70a and 70b which are horizontally installed so as to extend from a position above the conveyor 2 to a position above the tray mounting table 3. , So as to be reciprocally movable along the horizontal direction of arrow N3. As specific horizontal driving means for the operating body 6, for example, guide shafts 70a, 70
A ball screw mechanism in which both or one of b is a screw shaft (only the guide shaft 70a side is a screw shaft in FIG. 1), and a part of the operating body 6 is screwed into this screw shaft to be inserted therethrough. Can be adopted. In this case, the guide shaft 70a (or 70b) as a screw shaft is driven and rotated by a motor M1 such as a pulse motor,
It is possible to control the positioning of the motion body 6 in the horizontal direction with high accuracy.

Although the guide shafts 70a and 70b are supported by the frame 71, the frame 71 can reciprocate in the horizontal direction orthogonal to the axial direction of the guide shafts 70a and 70b. It is provided as appropriate. As a result, the suction head 5 supported by the operation body 6 can be freely moved up and down, horizontally moved in the left-right direction, and horizontally moved in the front-rear direction orthogonal thereto.

The tray mounting table 3 has a mounting plate portion 30 for mounting the tray 4 supported on a swing arm 32 which swings about a shaft portion 31 as a fulcrum. That is, in the tray mounting table 3, the swing arm 32 can be swung in the arrow a direction by the operation of the motor M2 connected to the shaft portion 31. By the swinging motion of the swinging arm 32, the placing plate portion 30 and the tray 4 can be tilted at a constant angle.

As the tray 4, for example, FIG.
As shown in (a), a plurality of partition recesses 40 are arranged vertically and horizontally for partitioning and accommodating glass plates m, each of which has a disk shape as a whole. Note that (b) and (c) in the figure will be described later).

Next, an example of a method of charging the transparent member to the sealing cap of the canseal type optical electronic component according to the present invention by using the charging device having the above-mentioned structure will be described.

The charging method is carried out as a part of a series of working steps as shown in FIG. That is, in the working process shown in the figure, first, as shown in the figure (a), the sealing cap C for sealing the laser diode or the like constituting the semiconductor laser is turned upside down, and the concave portion of the firing jig 1 is turned upside down. Fit to 10 and set. Then, as shown in FIGS.
Into the sealing cap C, a tablet 11 made of, for example, low-melting glass and a glass plate m are sequentially placed.

After that, as shown in FIG. 7E, the upper firing jig 1 for pressing is placed on the upper side of the firing jig 1.
A is overlaid and these are put in a heating furnace and heated while pressing the glass plate m toward the bottom surface side of the sealing cap C. Thereby, the glass plate m can be adhered to the inner surface side of the sealing cap C through the melted tablet 11, and the opening window portion 12 of the sealing cap C can be appropriately sealed. The charging method according to the present embodiment is a method used for the operation of charging the glass plate m into the sealing cap C among the above-described series of working steps.

To start this loading method, first, as shown in FIG. 1, the suction head 5 is placed above the tray 4 and then lowered along the arrow N1. The motor M2 of the table 3 is operated to swing the swing arm 32. Ie tray 4
Before removing the upper glass plate m, this tray 4
Is temporarily tilted and then returned to the original horizontal state.

If such a series of operations are performed, first, as shown in FIG. 6A, the partitioning recesses 40 of the tray 4 are formed.
Even when the arrangement of the glass plates m accommodated in the inside has a variation (a variation in the play S), when the tray 4 is inclined as shown in FIG. Moving in the b direction, the inner wall surface 4 of each partition recess 40
It comes into contact with the site on the tip end side which is the lowest position of the No. 1. Further, such an arrangement state of the glass plates m is maintained even after the tray 4 is returned to the horizontal state again as shown in FIG.

Therefore, when all the one ends of the glass plates m are brought into contact with and aligned with the inner wall surface 41 of each partitioning recess 40 in the same direction, the pitch P of each glass plate m is changed. The pitch can be set to be the same as the pitch of the partitioning recesses 40, and accurate alignment or positioning of each glass plate m can be performed. As a result, when the suction head 5 is subsequently lowered, the center of the convex portion 51 of the suction head 5 can be accurately aligned with each glass plate m. That is, it is possible to prevent the glass plate m from being adsorbed and held in a state of being biased with respect to the center of the convex portion 51.

Next, after the glass plate m is sucked by the suction head 5 and taken out as described above, the suction head 5 is moved upward by the arrow N2 and horizontally moved by the arrow N3. As a result, the glass plate m held by the suction head 5 can be arranged immediately above the sealing cap C set on the firing jig 1, and then can be moved down along the arrow N4.

However, when the suction head 5 is lowered, for example, as shown in FIG. 7, each convex portion 51 of the suction head 5 is lowered to a height at which it is inserted into the sealing cap C. As a result, the glass plate m held at the lower end of each convex portion 51 is also inserted inside the sealing cap C.

When the glass plate m is placed inside the sealing cap C as described above, the vacuum suction force acting on the vacuum suction hole 52 at that time may be weakened. Since the outside air is flowing into the vacuum suction hole 52 from the intake port 55, if the vacuum suction force is reduced to a certain value or less,
As a result, the glass plate m can be reliably separated from the suction head 5 and put into the sealing cap C.

That is, in order to separate the glass plate m from the suction head 5, it is not necessary to increase the pressure in the vacuum suction hole 52 by, for example, supplying pressurized air to the vacuum suction hole 52. Therefore, in the meantime, the vacuum suction holes 52
There is no problem that the dusts sucked inside are discharged into the sealing cap C. Further, as shown in FIG. 7, in a state where the glass plate m has not been detached from the suction head 5, air is sucked from the suction port 55 into the vacuum suction hole 52, so that the sealing cap C is formed. The effect of sucking and removing the dust existing inside is also exerted. Therefore, it is possible to positively clean the inside of the sealing cap C.

As means for detaching the glass plate m from the suction head 5, other than means for weakening the vacuum suction force by the vacuum suction holes 52, for example, the operation of the blower which is performing vacuum suction is stopped, or the vacuum suction from the blower is performed. The vacuum suction operation by the vacuum suction hole 52 may be stopped by closing a valve in the middle of the air pipe reaching the hole 52.
Even in this case, since the vacuum suction hole 52 communicates with the outside through the suction port 55, the inside of the vacuum suction hole 52 easily rises to the atmospheric pressure, and the glass plate m is reliably removed. Can be made. And even in this case,
There is no problem that the dusts in the vacuum suction holes 52 unduly backflow and flow out.

Since the glass plate m is removed from the suction head 5 at a low height when the glass plate m is inserted into the sealing cap C, the glass plate m is removed from the sealing cap C. There is no such thing as standing up in. Further, since the impact force when the glass plate m is put into the sealing cap C can be made considerably small, the glass plate m is not damaged such as cracked or chipped.

Further, before the suction head 5 sucks and holds the glass plate m, the glass plate m is preliminarily aligned by the tilting action of the tray 4, and the center of the glass plate m with respect to the center of the suction head 5. The glass plate m and the sealing cap C are accurately aligned in advance.
Centering with and can be accurately performed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the glass plate m from coming into contact with the inner peripheral wall of the sealing cap C when the glass plate m is charged, and it is possible to more thoroughly prevent damage to the glass plate m.

In the above embodiment, the case where the glass plate m is put into the sealing cap C used in the can-seal type semiconductor laser has been described as an example (claim 4).
The invention according to claim 1 or claim 6 is not limited to this. For example, as the optical electronic component, other than the semiconductor laser, it can be applied to various optical electronic components such as photosensors including a photodiode, a light emitting LED, or an infrared sensor including an infrared light receiving element. Therefore, it goes without saying that the specific shape and material of the sealing cap are not specified.
There is no limitation on the type of the light-transmissive member that is put into the sealing cap, and the present invention can be applied to the case where a light-transmissive member made of synthetic resin is put in, for example.

In addition, in the present invention, the specific numbers of the convex portions 51 and the vacuum suction holes 52 provided in the suction head 5 are not limited, and the suction head 5 can be moved up and down and horizontally moved. The specific mechanism is not limited, and the specific configuration of each part can be changed in various ways.
