SOLUTION: A pin pulley 3 is intermittently rotated to supply a member transferring body 1 on one side of which a case 2 serving as one of component members is formed, and a glued film 4 to which a separator 5 is bonded is positioned crosswise by a guide roller 6 while the separator 5 is peeled; the glued film 4 from which the separator 5 has been peeled is continuously bonded to the upper surface of the case 2 by a bonding roller 7, and is cut by a cutter 8, so that separation into individual cases 2 to each of which the glued film 4 is bonded is made possible.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a switch member assembling apparatus using a film with an adhesive, which is used in various electronic devices.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional assembly device for a switch member using this type of film with an adhesive will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 2 is a sectional front view of an essential part showing the above-mentioned conventional switch member assembling apparatus. In FIG. 2, 22 is a case which is one of the constituent members of the switch, and a hoop-shaped member transfer body 21. Are continuously formed at regular intervals on one side.

Reference numeral 23 is a pin pulley installed so as to be capable of intermittent rotation, and transfers the case 22 of the member transfer body 21 in the direction of the arrow. Reference numeral 11 denotes a fixed cutting portion, which is joined to the tips of the two slide shafts 15 held by the holder 18, has a cutting hole 19 of a prescribed size in the central portion, and has an adhesive applied on one side. A film guide 14 for guiding the film 13 is attached to the back side of the cutting hole 19.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a movable cutting blade. A cutting blade portion at the tip is joined to the center of a fixed block 17 slidably attached to a slide shaft 15 via a bearing 16, and the tip has the above-mentioned cutting hole. It has a shape that can be inserted through 19, and is adapted to be stuck to the upper surface of the case 22 by cutting the film 13 into a predetermined shape by sliding to the left in the drawing.

[0006] Next, regarding the attaching operation, the pin pulley 23
The film 13 is cut by the cutting hole 19 and the movable cutting blade 12 moved leftward in the drawing on the upper surface of the case 22 which is moved to a predetermined position and supplied by the cutting film 20.
Is attached to the case 22 with an adhesive.

[0007]

However, in the conventional switch member assembling apparatus, after the continuous film 13 is cut by the operation of the switch member, the positional deviation occurs before the cut film 20 is attached to the upper surface of the case 22. The member transfer body 21 and the film 13, that is, the case 22 are generated.
However, there is a problem in that the accuracy of attaching the cutting film 20 is poor.

The present invention is intended to solve such a conventional problem, and an object thereof is to provide an assembling apparatus of a switch member which is excellent in the accuracy of the position of attaching the member transfer body and the film.

[0009]

In order to solve the above problems, a switch member assembling apparatus according to the present invention intermittently conveys a hoop-shaped member transfer body in which the constituent members are continuously formed at predetermined intervals, and After adhering a continuous film with an adhesive to this, the film with an adhesive is cut and separated into individual constituent members.

According to the present invention, the member transfer body and the film can be easily and accurately attached to each other.

[0011]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The invention according to claim 1 of the present invention comprises: a pin pulley for transferring a hoop-shaped member transfer body in which constituent members are continuously formed at regular intervals by intermittent rotation; and a surface coated with an adhesive. A guide roller that peels and separates the separator while conveying the pressure-sensitive adhesive film to which the separator is attached, and a pressure-sensitive adhesive roller that attaches the pressure-sensitive adhesive film sent from the guide roller to the upper surface of the constituent member, and this configuration. The adhesive-attached film attached to the upper surface of the member is cut to separate into individual assembled components, which has the effect of providing good accuracy in the attachment position of the member transfer body and the film.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings using a case as a switch component.

FIG. 1 is a front view of an essential part showing a switch member assembling apparatus according to the embodiment, and in FIG.
Is a hoop-shaped member transfer body made of a resin material or a metal material, and a case 2 made of a resin material, a metal material, or a composite material thereof, which is one of the constituent members of the switch, is continuous on one side at a predetermined interval. Is formed.

Reference numeral 3 is a pin pulley that rotates intermittently, and the member transfer body 1 is wound and transferred intermittently in the direction of the arrow. Reference numeral 4 denotes a continuous film with an adhesive, which is made of a resin material and has the same width as that of the case 2. An adhesive is applied on one surface, and a continuous film-like separator 5 is attached to the surface.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a rotatable guide roller, which guides the pressure-sensitive adhesive film 4 to which the separator 5 is attached and separates the separator 5 and the pressure-sensitive adhesive film 4 by separating them. Transfer in the direction.

Numeral 7 is a rotatable sticking roller corresponding to the guide roller 6, and the sticker film 4 separated by separating the separator 5 is guided and stuck to the upper surface of the case 2.

Numeral 8 is a disk-shaped cutter made of superhard steel or the like, which is rotated by the rotation of a motor 9 to cut the adhesive-attached film 4 on the outer periphery, and a drive unit 10 moves it in the left-right direction in the drawing. It is free.

Next, the operation will be described. First, the pin pulley 3 is intermittently rotated (the driving mechanism is not shown) to transfer the member transfer body 1 in the direction of the arrow to supply the case 2 to a predetermined position, and subsequently, the adhesive-attached film to which the separator 5 is attached in advance. 4 is transferred by the guide roller 6 to perform positioning in the width direction, the separator 5 is peeled and separated, and the separator 5 is transferred to a winding portion (not shown) in the arrow direction.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive film 4 separated from the separator 5 is separated into a pin pulley 3 and a guide roller 6.
Corresponding to or transferred by being guided by a sticking roller 7 that rotates in synchronization with the sticking roller 7, the sticking roller 7 is stuck on the upper surface of the case 2 by continuously pressing.

At a predetermined position between the cases 2 of the adhered adhesive-attached film 4, the cutter 8 rotated by the motor 9 is moved leftward in the drawing by the drive unit 10 to move the cutter 8 to the outer periphery of the cutter 8. It is cut and separated into the case 2 to which the adhesive film 4 is attached.

It should be noted that a heat-reactive adhesive may be used as the adhesive, and the adhesive may be adhered to the case 2 by heating with an adhesive roller 7 having a heating element embedded therein, or the disc-shaped cutter 8 may be used. Alternatively, instead of the motor 9, a linear cutting blade such as a commercially available cutter knife may be linearly operated to cut the adhesive film 4.

Further, the case 2 is not limited to the sticking of the adhesive film 4 and any member can be used instead of the case 2 as long as it is a member formed at a predetermined interval of the member transfer body 1 at a predetermined interval. Needless to say.

[0023]

As described above, the apparatus for assembling a switch member according to the present invention has an effect that an excellent sticking position accuracy can be easily achieved when a film with an adhesive is stuck on a constituent member.
