Abstract

PURPOSE:To shorten a video processing time by irradiating a printed board by plural light sources arranged hemispherically, cylindrically, or conically, taking the optical axis of a TV camera as a center axis and fetching an image of a solder surface. CONSTITUTION:The TV camera 6 which has a lens 7 and a filter 8 is arranged vertically over the solder surface 2 of the printed board 1. A hemispherical light sources 9 is fixed to the TV camera 6 while consisting of hemispherical members 10 and 10' as outer frames and plural spot light sources 11 which are arranged on their internal surfaces and represented by electric lamps or light emitting diodes. When both an unsoldered land and the solder surface 2 are present in the same visual field of the TV camera 6, high-brightness reflection is caused by only the solder surface 2, thereby easily discriminating between the land and solder surface 2.

(Prior art and its problems) Defective solder surfaces usually refer to unsoldered, solder bridges, and excess or insufficient solder, but conventionally, the quality of the solder surface has been determined by contacting the solder surface with a contact bottle and measuring the resistance value. Measure. Most of the time, the external appearance was visually inspected by so-called in-circuit testing. Furthermore, there are several examples of automation of the conventional solder surface appearance inspection, and among them, the configuration of a visual manual system using an optical cutting line is shown in FIG. 1, and will be described below. A light source 4 that generates slit light 3 is placed above the solder surface 2 to be inspected on the printed circuit board 1, and the slit light 3 is projected onto the solder surface 2 and the printed circuit board 1 as a light cutting line 5. .

Further, the I'V camera 6 is placed above the solder surface 2. In this state, the printed circuit board 1 is horizontally moved in a direction perpendicular to the optical cutting line 5 with a slight pinch, and the shape and length of the optical cutting line 5 that crosses the half-day plane 2 is detected by the 'i' v camera 6. However, the quality of the solder surface 2 was determined based on information about the three-dimensional shape of the solder surface 2 (t+). 1- However, although this detection method can accurately detect the three-dimensional shape of the solder surface 20, the slit light 3
It is necessary to scan mechanically or optically, and there is a problem in that it is time-consuming for automatic solder surface inspection equipment.
