The preferred construction. [Prior Art] In general, when a workpiece such as a fine electronic component is supplied to a various processing device such as a downstream guard inspection device or a reading and mounting device by a component feeder, it will be transported. The various components of the downstream part of the guard are correctly carried out. For example, in the following Patent Documents 1 to 3, the workpiece is separated from the subsequent workpiece and positioned and moved out of the positioned guard by a rotary indexer or a robot, and the following patent document 2 And 4, in order to separate the workpiece of the previous workpiece, the following various separation and separation means are used, that is, the subsequent workpiece is temporarily adsorbed (adsorbed) to be temporarily stopped and held at the place, or the front-X piece is improved by the adsorption means. The movement charm, or the speed of the subsequent workpiece is reduced by the rotation speed of the light wire. [PRIOR ART DOCUMENT] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Hei.

Further, in the configuration of the above Patent Document 2, in the case where a plurality of workpieces are continuously conveyed from the straight-feed feeder F2, it is considered that the next workpiece cannot be sufficiently lowered on the workpiece separation rotating roller SR due to the subsequent workpiece pushing. The speed of movement, whereby the separation of the previous workpiece cannot be achieved. That is, there is also a shortage of separation of the workpiece due to the subsequent transfer state of the workpiece. Further, in this configuration, since the workpiece is transferred only by the adsorption force, the stability of the transfer is insufficient, and the speed of the conveyance operation is difficult, and the supply amount of the workpiece is lowered. Therefore, the present invention has been developed in order to solve the above problems, and a problem is to provide a workpiece separation unit that can stably and quickly separate a workpiece regardless of the conveyance state of the workpiece, and a vibration type conveying device including the same.

More specifically, in the case where the workpiece disposed in the guard separation unit 15 is transferred to the workpiece in the first region (the standby position of the next workpiece), the workpiece is placed behind the workpiece (the workpiece guide port 11b and The cover plate 114 is configured to protrude at least above the guard located in the i-th region, in such a manner that the reading of the workpiece introduction port i5b is not overlapped. Further, the protruding portion of the covering plate 114 has a function of suppressing the workpiece by pushing the workpiece held in the above-mentioned summer region obliquely upward with respect to the air supply (vacuum breaking) of the separating vent hole described below. Will not play up upwards. On the other hand, the workpiece separating unit 15 is formed with a groove transfer path 15a having a gap between the workpiece and the workpiece inlet port Ub of the 099143208 16 201202113. The workpiece transfer path l5am is extended by extending the extension line of the road cow. That is to say, in the case of the example, the conveying direction F formed by the sending path m and the workpiece formed by the moving member 15a are slightly oriented from the direction of the material. . However, the present invention is not limited to the two directions F and τ as shown in the figure. & The road control 15a is constituted by a groove that is substantially the same as the moving path m of the guard. The workpiece guides bb' of the workpiece transfer path 15a are provided with inclined side faces on both sides in the width direction so as to be inclined so as to open toward the workpiece guide port 11b toward the D direction (see Fig. 729).

On the bottom surface of the rear portion 15a of the workpiece transfer path, 1. Ba is formed with an opening portion 16a (a rectangular opening in a plan view) in the side of the introduction portion. In the case of the positioning, the opening portion 17a (in the example of the figure, a rectangular opening in the case of a plan) is formed. Opening. The crucible 16a is formed to be separated from the opening portion 17& along the transfer side n i . When the air supply structure 16 of the separation vent hole 16 is supplied with air, the opening portion 16a flows out from the opening portion 16a toward the end portion of the blade vent hole 16 toward the end portion side, and is configured to face the opening portion 16a. On the other hand, the direction of the flow of the separation is set to be obliquely upward in the direction of the transfer direction. The angle of inclination of the end portion with respect to ° is an acute angle (less than 9 degrees), but to increase the force of the workpiece, the direction of the transfer direction of the milk flow, and the propulsive force of the piece generated by the air flow is improved. It is preferable that the ventilation hole is formed at a temperature of 45 degrees or less, or the ventilation sectional area of the end portion is not required to be excessively small in proportion to the size of the opening portion 16a, and the ventilation resistance is preferably 15 degrees or more. Further, the end portion of the positioning vent hole 17 is configured to be inclined obliquely toward the introduction portion side toward the opening portion 17a. Thereby, the ventilation structure of the positioning vent hole 17 is configured such that the airflow direction of the inflow opening portion 17a is obliquely downward from the introduction portion side when the positioning vent hole is exhausted. The inclination angle of the end portion with respect to the transfer direction T may be an acute angle (less than 9 degrees), but it is preferable to increase the workpiece propulsion force generated by the air flow in order to increase the composition of the air flow direction τ. 45 degrees or less, it is easy to form a through-hole or it is not necessary to form the ventilation cross-sectional area of the Zhu end part too small in the ratio of the opening part 16a, and it is preferable to reduce ventilation resistance, Preferably it is 15 degrees or more. In addition, the ventilation structure of the separation vent hole 16 and the positioning vent hole 17 is not particularly limited. When the mnn is configured to vent or supply fluorine to each of the county holes, the transfer direction is generated on the outer side of the openings 16a and 17a. T can include an oblique flow of the flow rate component. For example, each of the above end portions may also be formed as a step rather than a tilt.

又,第1區域15Χ與第2區域15Υ之邊界位置設定為如 下,即,如ffl 9⑷所示工件PU堯端部係相較於上述分離用 通氣孔16而朝移送方向T移動’且工件到達不受來自 分離用通氣孔16之吸附作用所引起之影響之位置時,設定 成工件P1後私部自第一區域15X脫離,整個工件pi進入 第2區域15Y。繼而,可使位於該位置時之工件前端部 剛好到達檢測線。亦即’藉由第1檢測器s 1檢測工件 P1之最初位置成為工件P1後端部自第1區域15χ脫離而整 個工件Ρ1初次進入第2區域15Υ時之位置。 如圖7(a)所示,存在已抵接於工件移送路徑i5a之終端面 099143208 26 201202113 15d而停止,並藉由經由定位用通氣孔17之開口部17a,由 上述排氣構造E2吸附而暫時定位之工件P0(圖示兩點鏈 線),於相對於該工件P0,解除利用上述排氣構造E2之吸

相同),藉此,控制信號SOLI由ON變化為OFF,並且控 制信號SOL2由OFF變化為ON,因此藉由經由分離用通氣 孔16之上述排氣構造E2排氣的開口部16a中吸附作用會停 止,又,上述供氣構造A1運轉而破壞分離用通氣孔16之 真空。藉此,氣流自開口部16a朝移送方向T而朝斜上方流 出,因此如圖7(b)所示,朝移送方向T而朝斜上方推擠工件 P卜 此時,供氣構造A1從運轉開始僅以期間tl進行供氣動作 (真空破壞動作)後停止。再者,上述期間tl設定成時間較工 件P1之前端部到達檢測線L1之時間短,但為藉由惰性或 經由定位用通氣孔17之開口部17a之吸附作用,而使工件 P1前端部通過檢測線L1並最終到達終端面15d,而設為足 099143208 27 201202113 夠之時間以上。 如上述般’提前停止供氣構造A1之供氣,可防止經 由分離用通氣孔16之上述供氣構造A1之氣流,直至上述 /氣構4 El之排氣剛開始之前產生,而無法迅速地進行供 氣至排氣之切換,導致下一工件P2之吸附保持之時序延遲 的if形故而可確實地捕捉下一工件P2。 又如上所述’當第1檢測信號pHS1及第2檢測信號 PHS2均(亦可為任一方)由〇N變化為時控制信號 SOL4亦由〇FF變化為〇N,藉由利用上述排氣構造e2之 疋位用通氣孔17之排氣,而於開口部17a進行吸附。藉此, 自導入。卩側朝斜下方之氣流流人開口部^該氣流係藉由 吸附作用而辅助巧P1之料,並JL亦產生引人上述供氣 構k A1及A2所形成之氣流之作用,因此具有如下效果, 即’藉由全氣流相對於工件之推進力增強,並且可使該推進 力正確地朝向移送方向T。 再者目控紹。號s〇L3基本上始終設為ON,故而藉由 上述供氣構造A2之動作’自喷出口⑽始終朝移送方向丁 喷出氣流。若如此’則於工件移送路徑15&之上部,氣流始 終沿移送方向T筆直地(與卫件移送路徑以平行地)流動, 故而藉由上述供氣構造^朝斜上方㈣工件時 ,可迅速地 實現工件之移送姿勢之穩定化或相對於工件增大藉由氣流 而朝移送方向τ之推進力。㈣,藉此於分離用通氣孔16 099143208 28 201202113 =二部16a中吸附保私件之情形時,上述供祕造A2 件移自喷出"18b流出氣流。然而,因該工件配置於工 產送略從15a之底面上’故而工件移送路* 15&之上部所 生之上述氣流所引起之影響較小,並且於本實施形態中, 由於將噴出口 18b配置於開口部16a上之工件上、或者該工 •件末端部側’因此上述氣流幾乎不影響該工件。 而並非將控制信號SOL3始終設為on,而是如圖8 中以虛線所示,例如於第1檢測信號PHS1或第2檢測信號 PHS2成為〇N時(圖示例為PhS2成為ON時),將控制信號 SOL3設為on ’於既定期間t2後亦可設為〇FF。此處,較 佳為期間t2於期間tl之前後延續,並且較期間tl更長之期 間。 其後’如圖9(a)所示當工件pi前端部到達檢測線L1(整 個工件P1進入第2區域15Y)時,如圖8所示,自第1檢測 器S1輸出之第1檢測信號PHS1由OFF變化為ON,藉此 • 自控制部。發送之控制信號SOLI由OFF變化為ON,因此 上述排氣構造El運轉,藉此存在進入第1區域15X之下一 工件P2之情形時’該工件P2介隔開口部16a受到上述排氣 構造E1之吸附作用。 其後’工件Pl介隔定位用通氣孔17而藉由上述排氣構造 E2吸附於開π部17a,如_抑)所示,最終以工件ρι前端 部抵接於終端面l5d之狀態藉由吸附力定位。又,下一工件 099143208 29 201202113 P2藉由經由分離用通氣孔16之上述排氣構造幻之排氣動 作’而在開口部16a中產生之吸附力保持於帛i區域L 此時,於工件P1前端部到達檢測線u之時刻,於開口 部心中產生藉由經由分離用通氣孔16之上述排氣構造以 之排氣動作所產生之吸附作用,妨礙下一工件?2之移動, 因^匕於前-工件Η與下-工件P2之間確保與檢測線U和 終端面15d之距離相對應之既定間隔。 當前一工件P1前端部如上所述到達終端面15d時,如圖 8所示,第2檢測信號PHS2由OFF變化為0N,因此自控 制部C輸出之控制信號s〇L4由〇N變化為〇FF。藉此,上 述排氣構造E2停止,經由定位用通氣孔17之開口部 之吸附作用會停止。 又’如上所述,當第2檢測信號PHS2由OFF變化為〇N 時,對未圖示之工件處理裝置之控制部發送之控制信號 PUP’如圖8所示由OFF變化為ON,藉此上述工件處理震 置之工件搬出手段D運轉’自工件分離單元15搬出工件Η。 於本實施形態中,在工件分離單元15内,藉由上述供氣 構造Α1及Α2產生之氣流在工件移送路徑i5a朝移送方向 T流動’故而於如圖示例般自搬送體11離開同時實質上無 法傳遞藉由加振機構12所產生之振動而支持工件分離單元 15之情形時(對工件分離單元15未施加利用振動之搬送力 之情形時)’亦可對工件施加朝移送方向Τ之推進力。 099143208 201202113 尤其是,於本實施形態中,於存在配置於第2區域15Y 之工件P0之情形時,藉由上述供氣構造A1解除(真空破壞) 用以自工件P0離開保持下一工件P1之分離用通氣孔16之 開口部16a之吸附狀態,藉此產生上述氣流’故而可於工件 分離用之保持作用、及工件之移送作用中,共用分離用通氣 孔16’故可簡化通氣構造。又,欲將藉由上述排氣構造μ 所產生之吸附作用,暫時保持於開口部16a上之工件ρι, 直接藉由自相同之開口部l6a流出之氣流移送,因此具有可 以穩定之狀態確實地移送之優點。再者,該情形時,為增加 自開口部16a流出之氣流量或流速,亦可將上述供氣構造 A1構成為與供氣構造A2相同之加壓氣體供給手段,而非 僅構成為真空破壞(減壓解除)手段。 又’於本實施形態中’藉由上述供氣構造A 2 ::移送路…與開口部-呈對向側之嗔 件移运路控15a之上部噴出之氣流,藉此於 徑⑸之上部形成有氣簾。藉此,產生閉合之作用移送路 工件及自如部⑽心之氣流逸失至

實際試製本實施形態之振動式搬送裝置1G,沿搬送方向ρ 搬送圖5所示長度5.65inm、厚度〇 9mm、寬度3 〇咖之 工件’結果確認可進行5〇〇個/分鐘左右之高速之工件搬出。 此時’利用高速相機拍攝該高速動作。將其以低速播放時, 列明如下情況,即,工件係自吸附保持於開口部⑹之狀態 產生真空破壞時,藉由自開口部16a流出之氣流瞬間自工; 移送路15a上朝斜前方浮起’並自後紅件分離而朝末端 部側高速地移動’最初係一面微微上下搖晃一面朝斜上方推 擠,但立即藉由自喷出口 18b喷出之氣流而姿勢穩定地—面 朝移送方向T進一步加速一面移送。 又,可確認如下情況,即,即便於使上述供氣構造A2完 全停止之情形時,亦可藉由自開口部16a流出之氣流而確實 地移送工件。然而,於不使用供氣構造A2之情形時,工件 搬出速度少許下降。然而,該情形時,若與先前方法進行比 較,則亦可獲得非常高之搬出速度,亦大幅度降低搬出差錯 或工件之損傷。於本實施形態+,可考慮吸附於開口部 上之工件,藉由自開口部16a流出之氣流而自工件移送路徑 15a之底面浮起,並於該浮起之狀態下藉由氣流進—步移 動,因此亦不存在與工件移送路徑15a之底面間之摩擦等影 響,可瞬間加速而高速地移動。 099143208 32 201202113 於本實施形態中,工件移送路徑15a係由配置(突出)於分 離用通氣孔16之開口部16a上方側的被覆板114覆蓋。因 此,於藉由自分離用通氣孔16之開口部16a流出且朝斜上 方之氣流而朝斜上方側推擠工件之情形時,藉由被覆板 抑制工件之上彈,同時亦可矯正姿勢浚亂,上述氣流亦藉由 被覆板114而導引至移送方向,故可將工件更穩定且確實地 朝前方移送。 该情形時,因將被覆板之前端部配置於上述開口部之上方 側或者朝移送方向斜上方側,故而可於工件之移送目的地開 放工件移送路徑15a之上方側,因此不會阻礙工件之搬出或 維遵。又,於本實施形態中,將被覆板114固定於搬送體 11,且使被覆板114之前端部自搬送體n上突出至工件分 離單元15上’故而被覆板114會與搬送體u 一起沿搬送方 向以本實施形態中,與移送方向T 一致)振動。因此,亦可 期待如下作用’即’於工件自開口部⑹側(下側)與被覆板 114抵接時,被覆板114藉由摩擦力而朝移送方向τ推擠工 件。 再者,被覆板114亦可固定於工件分離單元15。該情形 時’由於被覆板114未振動而成為靜止之狀態,目此無法期 待上述推擠作用,但可確實地抑制工件上彈,亦可矯正姿 勢。又’於本實施形態中,由於在被覆才反114之前端緣設置 有上述噴出口 18b,因此工件及上述氣流經被覆板114抑止 099143208 33 201202113 後’藉由自喷出口 18b喷出之氣流而順利地導引至前方。 圖10係表示不同之第2實施形態控制部C動作之時序 圖。於該第2實施形態中,如下方面與第1實施形態相同: 於第1檢測信號pHsl與第2檢測信號PHS2全部(或者該等 之任一方)由ON成為OFF時,控制信號SOL2由off成為 ON。另一方面,該實施形態與上述第丨實施形態之不同點 在於··控制信號SOL2並非於期間tl後恢復成〇FF,而是 於第1檢測信號PHS1由OFF成為ON時,控制信號s〇L2

15a上分離之功能即可。例如,亦可構成為如下,即,' ^ 件移送路徑15a未形成有定位用通氣孔17及終端面It is preferable that the opening portion 17a of the positioning vent hole 17 is formed to face the end surface 15d in plan view. Further, the opening portion 17a is disposed around the opening direction τ of the transfer direction τ, and preferably has a length of 1/2 or less and 1/5 or more of the length of the workpiece transfer direction ,, and 1/3 or less and 1/4 or more of the mesh length. The reason is that when there is a case where the width is larger than the opening width, the workpiece stops before reaching the terminal surface 15d, and when it has a width smaller than the opening range, the positioning force of the workpiece causes the final surface 15d to be abutted. After the rebound. In the workpiece separating unit 15, the workpiece detecting means for detecting the workpiece existing at the end portion of the workpiece transfer dash and the workpiece positioning detecting hand a are provided in the detecting portions 157 and 158 attached to the holder 152. The workpiece detecting section is for detecting another region (the second region described below) in which the workpiece P1 is separated from the region (the first region described below) in which the opening portion 16a of the separation vent hole 16 is formed, and enters the end portion side of the region. The situation (or this timing). Specifically, the workpiece detecting means is constituted by a first detector S1 having light output that changes when the tip end portion of the workpiece P1 is transversely cut by the detecting line L1 of the inspection grooves 153a, 154a. And so on. The detection line li is set at a position away from the workpiece introduction port 15b side, and is set to a front end of the workpiece P1 when the workpiece P1 reaches a range that is substantially unaffected by the adsorption force of the opening portion 16a. The position is the same. Further, the workpiece positioning detecting means is for detecting that the front end portion of the workpiece P1 reaches the final end surface 15d and the workpiece P1 is in the positioning state (or this timing). 099143208 21 201202113 The workpiece positioning detecting means is constituted by the second detector S2, which includes the wheel end when the tip end portion of the workpiece P1 is cross-cut through the detecting line L2 of the inspection grooves 15A, 154b. A light sensor that changes, etc. The detection line L2 is set at a position adjacent to the final surface 15d, i.e., the position of the tip end of the workpiece ρ when the end surface i5d is brought into contact with the final end surface i5d. The cover plate 114 is provided with a counter-side air supply portion 18 for generating an air flow in the transfer direction T (preferably horizontal direction) along the upper portion of the workpiece transfer path. The opposite side air supply unit 18 has a vent line which is provided in the cover plate m and extends in the transfer direction τ (horizontal direction). The vent line is similar to the nozzle outlet U4 having a nozzle outlet (10) at the front end portion (end edge portion) of the cover panel U4, and includes an air supply port 18e' on the cover panel 114. If the air supply port is connected to an air supply (not shown) ,, the air flow can be ejected from the discharge port (10). The mouth outlet_ is disposed above the two = path 15a. Preferably, the discharge port 18b has a flat shape in the width direction of the official path (8), and the entire upper range of the width direction of the shifting one is: in the case of the pass member: =, the time between the cover plates 113 and 114 It is easy to maintain the workpiece transport path - and the workpiece transfer side. This ordering milk is produced, and the opening portion 16a generates 099143208 with respect to the workpiece, and the exhaust gas means α-piece separating row 4 means a pipe having a connecting vent hole 16 and a switch room, and the like; and the row 22 201202113 gas The exhaust structure E1 of the device. Further, the exhaust portion 173 is provided with an exhausting means for the working hole in the opening portion 173. The workpiece positioning exhaust means includes a pipe including a pipe for the connection of the second bank 17, a controller such as a valve, and a ventilating device E2. Here, the exhaust structures m and Μ may be configured to share the piping and the exhaust device in front of each controller. Further, in the present embodiment, the air supply means for workpiece transfer for generating the airflow in the transfer direction T on the workpiece transfer path W is provided. The workpiece transfer air supply means includes a gas flow that flows out from the opening portion 16a in the workpiece transfer path 15a by supplying air to the separation rail hole 16, and has a controller including a pipe and an on-off valve. The vent hole of the air supply structure a1 is supplied to the hand & Further, the workpiece feeding air supply means includes a counter-side air supply means for discharging airflow from the discharge port 18b of the vent line 18a by using the opposite-side air supply portion 18, and along the workpiece transfer path 15 & The upper part generates a horizontal air flow, and is composed of an air supply structure A2 including a controller such as a f, a drive, and the like. Here, the air supply structure A1 is a vacuum destruction (decompression release) means for generating an air flow by using the inertia of the air flow as a result of returning the inside of the separation vent hole 16 by the exhaust structure to atmospheric pressure. Further, the air supply structure A2 is a pressurized gas supply means for generating a gas flow by pressurizing the air supply means such as an air compressor to a pressure greater than the atmospheric pressure. However, the gas supply means for transferring the workpiece is not limited to the above-described air supply structure A1 09914320 & 23 201202113. w Α 2 The same pressure gas supply means structure The bottom surface structure f A1 is generated from the workpiece transfer path 15a surface with respect to the workpiece, and the hole of the gas supply structure A2. The other direction of the send direction produces a transfer path along the workpiece! The upper part of 5a moves toward C° and then flows out of the outlet muscle of the workpiece by the gas supply structure A1 gas, and is disposed opposite to the side of the feed path 15a, so that it can be placed on the upper and lower sides of the workpiece ( The opposite side is generated in the transfer direction T, so that the workpiece can be transferred in the posture of the workpiece n μ ^ . For example, it is possible to prevent the workpiece from being blown upward only when the airflow from 18b is given, or only the letter from the bottom surface of the workpiece-path (5) from the discharge port 4 is not moved. In the air structure A1, since the airflow flowing out from the opening portion of the separation vent hole 16 is obliquely upward, the opening portion 16a which is disposed to open to the bottom surface of the workpiece transfer path 15a can be surely pushed in the transfer direction T. The upper workpiece has the advantage of being able to reliably transfer the workpiece. In particular, it is possible to more reliably push the workpiece sucked and held by the exhaust gas of the exhaust structure El as the workpiece separation exhaust means in the moving direction τ. The air supply structure A2 generates airflow in the transfer direction T in the upper portion of the workpiece transfer path 15a (the side opposite to the opening 16a of the air hole 16 of the separation passage 099143208 24 201202113), so that the air supply structure A1 can be used. The airflow obliquely upward is introduced into the transport direction T (horizontal direction), and the workpiece can be pushed in the transport direction T (horizontal direction) while pushing the workpiece pushed obliquely upward. Therefore, the workpiece can be transferred at a higher speed, and the transfer posture of the workpiece can be stabilized. As shown in Fig. 6, in the present embodiment, the workpiece carrying-out means D is used to carry out the workpiece P1 positioned so that the tip end portion abuts against the end surface 15d by the suction action by the positioning vent hole 17. The workpiece carrying means D may be, for example, a part of various workpiece processing apparatuses such as a workpiece inspection device or a workpiece mounting device on the downstream side, that is, a robot, a pick-and-place unit, a rotary indexer, and the like. In the example of the figure, the system shows a robot or a part of the pick-and-place unit (mediator) with a two-dot chain line. The first detection signal PHS1 outputted by the first detector S1 and the second detection signal PHS2 output by the second detector S2 shown in FIG. 5 are transmitted to the control unit C shown in FIG. 6, and the control unit C is based on The detection signals PHS1 and PHS2 output a control signal SOLI to a controller (for example, a solenoid valve of the exhaust valve E1), and output a control signal S0L4 to the controller of the exhaust structure E2 to the air supply structure A1. The controller outputs a control signal S0L2, and outputs a control signal S0L3 to the controller of the air supply structure A2. Further, the control unit C outputs a control signal PUP indicating the workpiece carry-out timing to the control unit of each of the various workpiece processing apparatuses (not shown) based on the detection signal PHS2. 099143208 25 201202113 Fig. and (b) and Fig. 9 (4) and (b) are in the form of a plan view, respectively, = the monthly movement pattern of the workpiece in the read separation material 15 of the present embodiment, and Fig. 8 shows Timing diagram of signals for each part of the i-th embodiment. 7 and 9 are schematic views, and the configuration of each of the above-described blocks constituting the workpiece transfer path 15a is omitted. As shown in Fig. 7, in the workpiece transfer path 15a, the first region 15X is set on the workpiece introduction port side, and the second region 1SY is secured on the side opposite to the workpiece guide port Mb of the second turn region 15A. At this time, the separation vent hole 16 is formed in the first region 15X, and the positioning vent hole 形成 is formed in the second region 15γ. Here, the second region ΐ5γ is made larger than the range in which at least one workpiece can be accommodated. Further, it is preferable that the second region 15 is set to a range in which at least one workpiece can be accommodated. Further, the boundary position between the first region 15A and the second region 15A is set such that the workpiece PU尧 end portion moves toward the transfer direction T and the workpiece arrives as compared with the separation vent hole 16 as shown in ffl 9(4). When the position is not affected by the adsorption by the separation vent hole 16, the workpiece P1 is set to be separated from the first region 15X, and the entire workpiece pi is entered into the second region 15Y. Then, the front end portion of the workpiece at the position can be just reached the detection line. That is, the first position of the workpiece P1 is detected by the first detector s1, and the rear end portion of the workpiece P1 is separated from the first region 15A, and the entire workpiece Ρ1 is first entered into the second region 15Υ. As shown in Fig. 7 (a), the terminal surface 099143208 26 201202113 15d that has abutted on the workpiece transfer path i5a is stopped, and is adsorbed by the exhaust structure E2 via the opening portion 17a of the positioning vent hole 17. The temporarily positioned workpiece P0 (two-point chain line shown in the figure) is released from the workpiece carrying-out means D by releasing the suction state of the exhaust structure E2 with respect to the workpiece P0. At this time, when the first workpiece P1 exists in the first region 15X on the workpiece transfer path 15a, the workpiece P1 is sucked and stopped by the exhaust structure E1 via the opening 16a of the separation vent hole 16. Further, subsequent workpieces P2 and P3 are disposed on the workpiece transfer path 11a. When the workpiece P0 is carried out, as shown in FIG. 8, the first detection signal PHS1 and the second detection signal PHS2 are both turned from OFF to OFF (or inverted, the same applies hereinafter), whereby the control signal SOLI changes from ON to OFF. Further, since the control signal SOL2 is changed from OFF to ON, the adsorption operation is stopped by the opening portion 16a of the exhaust gas passing through the above-described exhaust structure E2 of the separation vent hole 16, and the gas supply structure A1 is operated to break the separation passage. The vacuum of the air holes 16. As a result, the airflow flows out obliquely upward from the opening portion 16a in the transfer direction T. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7(b), the workpiece P is pushed obliquely upward in the transfer direction T. At this time, the air supply structure A1 is operated. At the beginning, the air supply operation (vacuum breaking operation) is stopped only during the period t1. Further, the period tl is set to be shorter than the time until the end of the workpiece P1 reaches the detection line L1, but the tip end portion of the workpiece P1 is passed by inertia or by the adsorption of the opening portion 17a of the positioning vent hole 17 The detection line L1 finally reaches the terminal surface 15d, and is set to be longer than the time of 099143208 27 201202113. As described above, the air supply to the air supply structure A1 is stopped in advance, and the air flow through the air supply structure A1 through the separation vent hole 16 can be prevented until the exhaust gas of the /gas structure 4 El is just started, and cannot be quickly formed. The switching of the supply of gas to the exhaust gas causes the timing of the adsorption hold of the next workpiece P2 to be delayed, so that the next workpiece P2 can be surely captured. Further, as described above, the control signal SOL4 is also changed from 〇FF to 〇N when both the first detection signal pHS1 and the second detection signal PHS2 are changed by 〇N, by using the above-described exhaust structure. The depression of e2 is exhausted by the vent hole 17, and is adsorbed at the opening 17a. By this, self-import. The airflow flowing under the slanting side of the slanting side is the opening of the airflow. The airflow assists the material of the P1 by the adsorption, and the JL also acts to introduce the airflow formed by the gas supply structures k A1 and A2, and thus has the following The effect, i.e., is enhanced by the propulsive force of the full airflow relative to the workpiece, and the propulsive force can be correctly directed toward the transfer direction T. Again, the target is controlled. Since the number s 〇 L3 is basically always turned ON, the air flow is always ejected from the discharge port (10) toward the transfer direction by the operation of the air supply structure A2. If so, then the airflow always flows straight in the transfer direction T (parallel to the guard transfer path) in the upper part of the workpiece transfer path 15 & in the case of the above-mentioned gas supply structure ^ obliquely upward (four) workpiece, can be quickly The stabilization of the transfer posture of the workpiece or the increase of the thrust force in the transfer direction τ by the air flow with respect to the workpiece is achieved. (4) By means of the separation vent 16 099143208 28 201202113 = the case where the smuggling member is adsorbed in the two portions 16a, the above-mentioned secret A2 piece is moved from the venting "18b effluent stream. However, since the workpiece is disposed on the bottom surface of the work product 15a, the influence of the airflow generated by the upper portion of the workpiece transfer path*15& is small, and in the present embodiment, the discharge port 18b is used. The workpiece is disposed on the workpiece on the opening portion 16a or on the end portion side of the workpiece. Therefore, the above airflow hardly affects the workpiece. Rather, the control signal SOL3 is not always set to on, but is indicated by a broken line in FIG. 8, for example, when the first detection signal PHS1 or the second detection signal PHS2 becomes 〇N (in the example of the figure, when PhS2 is ON), Setting the control signal SOL3 to on ' can also be set to 〇FF after the predetermined period t2. Here, it is preferable that the period t2 continues after the period t1 and is longer than the period t1. Then, as shown in FIG. 9(a), when the tip end portion of the workpiece pi reaches the detection line L1 (the entire workpiece P1 enters the second region 15Y), as shown in FIG. 8, the first detection signal output from the first detector S1 is as shown in FIG. PHS1 changes from OFF to ON, and this is controlled by the control unit. When the transmission control signal SOLI is changed from OFF to ON, the exhaust structure El is operated, and when there is a workpiece P2 under the first region 15X, the workpiece P2 is separated from the opening 16a by the above-described exhaust structure E1. Adsorption. Then, the workpiece P1 is adsorbed to the opening π portion 17a via the vent hole 17 through the vent hole 17, and finally the workpiece ρι end portion abuts against the terminal surface 15d. Adsorption positioning. Further, the next workpiece 099143208 29 201202113 P2 is held in the opening portion 16a by the above-described exhaust structure through the separation vent hole 16 and the adsorption force generated in the opening portion 16a is maintained in the 帛i region L. When the distal end portion reaches the detection line u, an adsorption action by the exhaust operation through the above-described exhaust structure through the separation vent hole 16 occurs in the opening core, thereby hindering the next workpiece. The movement of 2 ensures a predetermined interval corresponding to the distance between the detection line U and the terminal surface 15d between the front-workpiece Η and the lower-workpiece P2. When the front end portion of the workpiece P1 reaches the terminal surface 15d as described above, as shown in FIG. 8, the second detection signal PHS2 changes from OFF to 0N, so that the control signal s〇L4 output from the control unit C changes from 〇N to 〇. FF. As a result, the exhaust structure E2 is stopped, and the adsorption through the opening of the positioning vent hole 17 is stopped. Further, when the second detection signal PHS2 is changed from OFF to 〇N, the control signal PUP' transmitted from the control unit of the workpiece processing apparatus (not shown) is turned from OFF to ON as shown in FIG. The workpiece unloading means D in the above-described workpiece processing is moved to carry out the workpiece Η from the workpiece separating unit 15. In the present embodiment, in the workpiece separating unit 15, the airflow generated by the air supply structures Α1 and Α2 flows in the transfer direction T in the workpiece transfer path i5a, so that the transfer body 11 is separated as shown in the figure. When the workpiece separation unit 15 is not supported by the vibration generated by the oscillating mechanism 12 (when the workpiece separation unit 15 is not applied with the vibration transmission force), the workpiece may be applied in the transfer direction. Propulsion. In particular, in the present embodiment, when the workpiece P0 disposed in the second region 15Y is present, the gas supply structure A1 is released (vacuum break) for leaving the workpiece P1 from the workpiece P0. The adsorption state of the opening portion 16a of the separation vent hole 16 is such that the gas flow is generated, so that the separation vent hole 16' can be shared between the workpiece separation function and the workpiece transfer operation, so that the ventilation structure can be simplified. Further, the object ρ temporarily held by the opening portion 16a by the adsorption action by the above-described exhaust structure μ is directly transferred by the airflow flowing out from the same opening portion 16a, so that it can be stably stabilized. The advantages of transfer. Further, in this case, in order to increase the flow rate or flow rate of the gas flowing out from the opening portion 16a, the gas supply structure A1 may be configured as the same as the gas supply structure A2, instead of merely being vacuum-destroyed. (Decompression relief) means. Further, in the present embodiment, the air flow ejected from the upper portion of the upper part transporting path 15a by the air supply structure A 2 ::transfer path and the opening portion is used to the upper portion of the diameter (5). An air curtain is formed. Thereby, the flow of the closing action is generated, and the flow of the workpiece and the free portion (10) is lost to the 'no, especially the stable transfer posture. Further, the airflow in the path A is sent to the path A, and the airflow in the path A is high in the direction of the transfer, and the workpiece is moved in the direction of the workpiece. Therefore, the motor can be greatly moved to prevent the workpiece from being bounced, and the workpiece is raised. Workpiece moving, and: face. Furthermore, the direction of the airflow ejected from 18b can also be slightly shifted toward the workpiece I from the mouth exit 099143208, and the grid is tilted. Example 201202113 If the inclination is 5~1G degrees downward, the workpiece can be obviously forced to move. In the vibrating transport apparatus 1G of the present embodiment, the workpiece having a length of 5.65 inm, a thickness of 〇9 mm, and a width of 3 图 is shown in the transport direction ρ. As a result, it is confirmed that a high speed of about 5 Å/min can be performed. The workpiece is moved out. At this time, the high speed operation is taken by a high speed camera. When it is played at a low speed, the case where the workpiece is vacuum-destroyed by the state of being held by the opening (6) is instantaneously self-constructed by the airflow flowing out from the opening portion 16a; the transfer path 15a is obliquely forward Floats 'and moves away from the rear red piece and moves at a high speed toward the distal end side'. Initially, the side is slightly swayed up and down and pushed upwards obliquely, but immediately the posture is stably stabilized by the air flow ejected from the ejection port 18b. In the transfer direction T, the transfer is further accelerated. In addition, even when the air supply structure A2 is completely stopped, the workpiece can be surely transferred by the airflow flowing out from the opening 16a. However, when the air supply structure A2 is not used, the workpiece removal speed is slightly lowered. However, in this case, if compared with the previous method, a very high carry-out speed can be obtained, and the carry-out error or the damage of the workpiece can be greatly reduced. In the present embodiment, it is conceivable that the workpiece sucked on the opening portion floats from the bottom surface of the workpiece transfer path 15a by the airflow flowing out from the opening portion 16a, and is further advanced by the air flow in the floating state. Since it moves, there is no influence such as friction with the bottom surface of the workpiece transfer path 15a, and it can be instantaneously accelerated and moved at a high speed. In the present embodiment, the workpiece transfer path 15a is covered by the covering plate 114 disposed on the upper side of the opening 16a of the separation vent hole 16. Therefore, when the workpiece is pushed out from the opening portion 16a of the vent hole 16 and the airflow toward the obliquely upward side is pushed upward, the workpiece is rebounded by the cover plate, and the posture can be corrected. In the meantime, the airflow is also guided to the transport direction by the cover plate 114, so that the workpiece can be transferred more stably and reliably forward. In this case, since the end portion of the cover panel is disposed above the opening portion or obliquely upward toward the transfer direction, the workpiece transfer destination can be opened above the workpiece transfer path 15a, so that the workpiece is not hindered. Move out or follow. Further, in the present embodiment, the covering plate 114 is fixed to the conveying body 11, and the front end portion of the covering plate 114 is projected from the conveying body n to the workpiece separating unit 15. Therefore, the covering plate 114 is along with the conveying body u. In the present embodiment, the transport direction vibrates in accordance with the transfer direction T. Therefore, when the workpiece comes into contact with the covering plate 114 from the opening (6) side (lower side) of the workpiece, the covering plate 114 pushes the workpiece in the transfer direction τ by the frictional force. Further, the cover plate 114 may be fixed to the workpiece separation unit 15. In this case, the cover plate 114 is in a state of being stationary because it is not vibrated, so that the above-described pushing action cannot be expected, but the workpiece can be reliably suppressed from being lifted, and the posture can be corrected. Further, in the present embodiment, since the discharge port 18b is provided at the edge before the coating is reversed, the workpiece and the airflow are suppressed by the covering plate 114 by 099143208 33 201202113, and the airflow is ejected from the discharge port 18b. Guided smoothly to the front. Fig. 10 is a timing chart showing the operation of the control unit C according to the second embodiment. In the second embodiment, the following is the same as the first embodiment: When all of the first detection signal pHs1 and the second detection signal PHS2 (or any of them) are turned OFF by the ON, the control signal SOL2 is turned off. ON. On the other hand, this embodiment is different from the above-described third embodiment in that the control signal SOL2 is not restored to 〇FF after the period t1, but is controlled when the first detection signal PHS1 is turned OFF. L2 returns to OFF. As a result, in the second embodiment, the airflow flowing out from the opening portion 16a is continuously ejected to the workpiece P1 until the first detection signal PHS1 is turned from "off" to N, so that the workpiece P1 can be more reliably transferred to the final portion. Bit position. Further, in each of the embodiments described above, in addition to the above-described effects, it is not necessary to apply vibration to the workpiece separating unit, and therefore, it can be widely applied to various types of transporting. Further, since it is possible to set the vibration-free state, it is possible to reduce the amount of leakage of the anger and the fact that the workpiece can be reliably held, and the phase of the phase is less than that of the workpiece, and the damage of the workpiece during the carry-out error or the carry-out can be reduced. Moreover, the reduction in the accuracy and the like can also improve the positioning accuracy H because * will reduce the supply of the I piece, so it may be suitable for the separation of the high-resolution I pieces in recent years. Further, the X-separator type 4 vibrating type of the present invention is not limited to the above-described example, and (10) various modifications can be added without departing from the gist of the present invention. In the present embodiment, the opening portions 16a and 17a transfer the code to the workpiece. 099143208 34 201202113 The opening of the bottom surface of the i5a The protruding portion of the covering plate 114 is the upper cover workpiece transfer path 15a. However, this example is only an example. For example, the opening portions 16a and 17a may be opened toward the width of the guard member transfer path l5a in the width direction. The cover member corresponding to the cover panel may be disposed opposite to the other side in the opposite direction. That is, in the present embodiment, the downward direction is one of the directions in the opposite direction. For example, the configuration of the present invention is not limited as long as the mutual positional relationship is ensured. In the second embodiment, the case where the workpiece separating unit 15 is configured as a vibration/transporting device is described. However, the present invention is not limited to the vibrating conveying device, and can be applied to various conveying apparatuses I. Separate list = 15 can also independently support the fixed state use, instead of supporting the move. Further, it may be configured as a part of the downstream side guard processing device or the carry-out mechanism, not part of the transport device. Further, in the present embodiment, the workpiece separating unit 15 has a function of finally positioning the conveyed workpiece in the second region ΐ5γ at the end surface 15d, but may not have the positioning function. . That is, as the workpiece separating unit 15, it is only necessary to have a function of separating the workpiece on the workpiece transfer robot 15a. For example, it may be configured such that the 'meeting transfer path 15a is not formed with the positioning vent hole 17 and the end face
