Description

部品配置装置及びその組み立て方法Component placement apparatus and assembly method thereof
 本発明は、電子部品などの部品を配置する装置、特に電子部品をプリント配線板の表面の所定位置に配置して実装する電子部品実装装置に組み込んで使用するのに適した部品配置装置、及びその組み立て方法、修理方法そして保守管理(メンテナンス)方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a device for placing components such as electronic components, in particular, a component placement device suitable for use in an electronic component mounting device that places and mounts electronic components at predetermined positions on the surface of a printed wiring board, and The present invention relates to an assembly method, a repair method, and a maintenance management method.
 従来より、電子部品をプリント配線板の表面の所定位置に配置して実装するため電子部品実装装置が用いられている。電子部品実装装置には通常、配置対象の部品を一時的に保持する機構(例、減圧装置、あるいは電磁的な着脱手段)に接続された軸棒、軸棒の昇降駆動手段、そして軸棒の回転駆動手段を備える部品配置装置が組み込まれている。 Conventionally, an electronic component mounting apparatus has been used to place and mount an electronic component at a predetermined position on the surface of a printed wiring board. An electronic component mounting apparatus usually has a shaft rod connected to a mechanism (for example, a decompression device or electromagnetic attachment / detachment means) that temporarily holds a component to be arranged, a shaft rod lifting / lowering drive means, and a shaft rod A component placement device including a rotation driving means is incorporated.
 電子部品を実装するに際して、電子部品実装装置は先ず、電子部品が収容されたトレイの上方に上記の部品配置装置を移動させる。部品配置装置は、軸棒を下降させ、減圧装置を作動させて軸棒の下端部に電子部品を吸着保持させたのち軸棒を上昇させる。次に電子部品実装装置は、別に用意したプリント配線板の上方に部品配置装置を移動させる。プリント配線板の表面には電気配線が備えられている。部品配置装置は、軸棒を回転させて、上記電気配線との電気的な接続が可能になるよう電子部品の向きを変える。部品配置装置は次いで、軸棒を下降させ、その下端部に保持している電子部品をプリント配線板の表面の所定位置に配置する。その後、部品配置装置は、軸棒を上昇させ、元の位置に戻す。電子部品実装装置を用い、このような操作を繰り返すことにより、プリント配線板の表面に多数の電子部品が実装される。 When mounting an electronic component, the electronic component mounting apparatus first moves the component placement apparatus above the tray in which the electronic component is accommodated. The component placement device lowers the shaft rod, operates the decompression device to attract and hold the electronic component on the lower end portion of the shaft rod, and then raises the shaft rod. Next, the electronic component mounting apparatus moves the component placement apparatus above a separately prepared printed wiring board. Electrical wiring is provided on the surface of the printed wiring board. The component placement device rotates the shaft bar to change the orientation of the electronic component so that electrical connection with the electrical wiring is possible. Next, the component placement device lowers the shaft rod and places the electronic component held at the lower end of the shaft rod at a predetermined position on the surface of the printed wiring board. Thereafter, the component placement device raises the shaft rod and returns it to the original position. By repeating such operations using an electronic component mounting apparatus, a large number of electronic components are mounted on the surface of the printed wiring board.
 上記の軸棒の回転を可能とするため、軸棒は筒状の直動軸受に収容保持される。軸棒には、例えば、上記の直動軸受の周囲に装着されたベルトなどの動力伝達手段を介して回転駆動装置が接続される。 ¡To enable rotation of the shaft rod, the shaft rod is housed and held in a cylindrical linear motion bearing. For example, a rotary drive device is connected to the shaft rod via power transmission means such as a belt mounted around the linear motion bearing.
 特許文献1には、複数本(例、10本)の軸棒(駆動シャフト)を備える部品配置装置(ヘッドユニット)が開示されている。同文献の部品配置装置の軸棒には、ベルトを介して回転駆動装置(駆動モータ)が接続されている。 Patent Document 1 discloses a component placement device (head unit) including a plurality (eg, 10) of shaft rods (drive shafts). A rotary drive device (drive motor) is connected to the shaft rod of the component placement device of the same document via a belt.
特開2009-170525号公報(第2図、第3図、段落[0043])JP 2009-170525 A (FIGS. 2, 3 and paragraph [0043])
 部品配置装置の軸棒が長期間にわたって繰り返して昇降すると、軸棒の表面に摩耗を生じる。このため、直動軸受による軸棒の支持が不安定になるという問題を生じる。このような場合、軸棒に保持された電子部品をプリント配線板の表面に配置する際の位置決めの精度が低下する。従って、摩耗によって不具合を生じた軸棒は、新規な軸棒などの別の正常な軸棒に交換する必要がある。 ¡When the shaft rod of the component placement device is repeatedly raised and lowered over a long period of time, the surface of the shaft rod is worn. For this reason, there arises a problem that the support of the shaft rod by the linear motion bearing becomes unstable. In such a case, the positioning accuracy when the electronic component held by the shaft rod is arranged on the surface of the printed wiring board is lowered. Therefore, it is necessary to replace the shaft rod that has failed due to wear with another normal shaft rod such as a new shaft rod.
 しかしながら、従来の部品配置装置では、軸棒を支持している直動軸受は、例えば、ベルトなどの動力伝達手段を介して回転駆動装置に接続されている。従って、軸棒を交換するに際して、先ずは直動軸受と回転駆動装置とを接続しているベルトを取り外したのち、軸棒と直動軸受とを取り外す。次に、別の正常な軸棒を支持した直動軸受を取り付けたのち、直動軸受と回転駆動装置とを改めて上記のベルトを張り渡して互いに接続する。このように、軸棒を交換する際にベルト(動力伝達手段)を脱着する作業は、繁雑で時間を要するものであるため、電子部品実装装置の稼働率を低下させる。 However, in the conventional component placement device, the linear motion bearing that supports the shaft rod is connected to the rotary drive device via a power transmission means such as a belt, for example. Therefore, when exchanging the shaft rod, first, after removing the belt connecting the linear motion bearing and the rotary drive device, the shaft rod and the linear motion bearing are removed. Next, after attaching a linear motion bearing that supports another normal shaft rod, the linear motion bearing and the rotational drive device are stretched again to connect the belts to each other. Thus, since the operation | work which removes | removes a belt (power transmission means) when replacing | exchanging a shaft rod is complicated and requires time, the operation rate of an electronic component mounting apparatus is reduced.
 このため、例えば、部品配置装置が備える複数本の軸棒のうちの一本が、その周囲の機械装置等との衝突により湾曲して故障した場合に、この軸棒を交換することなく、残りの正常な(故障していない)軸棒を用いて電子部品の実装を続けることがある。軸棒の交換のため電子部品実装装置の稼働を長時間停止することを回避するためである。しかしながら、実装に使用できる軸棒の本数が少なくなるため、電子部品の実装効率が低下する。 For this reason, for example, when one of a plurality of shaft rods provided in the component placement device is bent and broken due to a collision with a surrounding mechanical device or the like, the remaining shaft rod is not replaced. In some cases, mounting of electronic components may be continued using a normal (non-failed) shaft rod. This is to avoid stopping the operation of the electronic component mounting apparatus for a long time due to the replacement of the shaft rod. However, since the number of shaft rods that can be used for mounting is reduced, the mounting efficiency of electronic components is reduced.

 本発明の部品配置装置を、その代表的な構成を示す添付の図面を用いて説明する。図1は、本発明の部品配置装置の構成例を示す斜視図である。そして図2は、図1の部品配置装置10の側面図である。 The component placement device of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings showing its typical configuration. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a configuration example of a component placement device of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a side view of the component placement device 10 of FIG.
 本発明の部品配置装置10は、枠体11、枠体11に回転手段を介して昇降可能に装着された配置対象部品の一時的保持手段及び上記回転手段に接続する第一の動力伝達手段17を備えた配置対象部品一時的保持装置、そして第一の動力伝達手段17に係合している第二の動力伝達手段42を備え、かつ枠体11を着脱可能に支持している基台41などから構成されている。 The component placement apparatus 10 according to the present invention includes a frame 11, a temporary holding means for a placement target component that is mounted on the frame 11 via a rotation means, and a first power transmission means 17 connected to the rotation means. And a base 41 that includes a second power transmission means 42 engaged with the first power transmission means 17 and detachably supports the frame 11. Etc.
 配置対象部品の一時的保持手段は、配置対象の部品の一時的な保持を可能とするものである。配置対象部品の一時的保持手段は、例えば、図示した部品配置装置10の場合、配置対象部品を一時的に保持する機構(例、減圧装置)に接続された軸棒12に相当する。 The temporary holding means for the placement target part enables the temporary holding of the placement target part. For example, in the case of the illustrated component placement device 10, the placement target component temporary holding means corresponds to the shaft 12 connected to a mechanism (for example, a decompression device) that temporarily holds the placement target component.
 回転手段は、配置対象部品の一時的保持手段を、配置対象の部品を一時的に保持した状態で回転及び昇降可能とするものである。回転手段は、例えば、図示した部品配置装置10の場合、軸棒を昇降可能に支持している直動軸受(例、直動軸受14a)、および直動軸受を軸棒12と共に回転可能に支持している回転軸受15に相当する。 Rotating means makes it possible to rotate and move the temporary holding means of the arrangement target part while holding the arrangement target part temporarily. For example, in the case of the illustrated component arrangement device 10, the rotation means is a linear motion bearing (eg, linear motion bearing 14 a) that supports the shaft rod so as to be movable up and down, and the linear motion bearing is supported so as to be rotatable together with the shaft rod 12. This corresponds to the rotating bearing 15.
 配置対象部品一時的保持装置は、枠体、枠体に回転手段を介して装着された配置対象部品の一時的保持手段、および第一の動力伝達手段を備えるものである。配置対象部品一時的保持装置は、例えば、図示した部品配置装置10の場合、枠体11、直動軸受及び回転軸受15、配置対象部品を一時的に保持する機構(例、減圧装置)に接続された軸棒12、および第一の動力伝達手段17を備える軸棒昇降回転機構19に相当する。 The arrangement target component temporary holding device includes a frame, a temporary holding unit of the arrangement target component mounted on the frame via a rotation unit, and a first power transmission unit. For example, in the case of the illustrated component placement device 10, the placement target component temporary holding device is connected to the frame 11, the linear motion bearing and the rotary bearing 15, and a mechanism (for example, a decompression device) that temporarily holds the placement target component. The shaft rod 12 and the shaft rod elevating / rotating mechanism 19 provided with the first power transmission means 17 correspond to the shaft rod 12 and the first power transmission means 17.
 本発明の部品配置装置においては、基台にさらに配置対象部品の一時的保持手段の昇降駆動手段が備えられていてもよい。昇降駆動手段は、配置対象部品の一時的保持手段を昇降させるものである。昇降駆動手段は、例えば、図示した部品配置装置10の場合、軸棒12を昇降させる昇降駆動手段44に相当する。 In the component placement device of the present invention, the base may further include lifting drive means for temporarily holding the placement target parts. The raising / lowering drive means raises / lowers the temporary holding means of the component to be arranged. For example, in the case of the illustrated component placement apparatus 10, the elevation drive means corresponds to the elevation drive means 44 that raises and lowers the shaft rod 12.
 本発明の部品配置装置においては、上記の昇降駆動手段に代えて、基台にさらに配置対象部品の一時的保持手段の昇降を駆動及び制御する手段が備えられていてもよい。配置対象部品の一時的保持手段の昇降を駆動及び制御する手段としては、例えば、軸棒を上方に駆動する手段(例、ばねなどの弾性体)と、この軸棒の頂部を下方に押圧して軸棒の上下方向の位置を制御する手段との組み合わせからなるものを用いることができる。 In the component placement device of the present invention, means for driving and controlling the raising and lowering of the temporary holding means for the placement target parts may be further provided on the base instead of the above-described raising and lowering driving means. As means for driving and controlling the raising and lowering of the temporary holding means for the component to be arranged, for example, a means for driving the shaft rod upward (eg, an elastic body such as a spring) and a top portion of this shaft rod are pressed downward. Thus, a combination of means for controlling the vertical position of the shaft rod can be used.
 以下では、本発明の部品配置装置の好ましい実施態様である図1及び図2の部品配置装置10の構成について詳しく説明する。 Hereinafter, the configuration of the component placement apparatus 10 of FIGS. 1 and 2 which is a preferred embodiment of the component placement apparatus of the present invention will be described in detail.
 部品配置装置10は、枠体11、枠体11に並列支持された、配置対象部品を一時的に保持する機構(図示していない)に接続された軸棒12と、軸棒12を昇降可能に支持する筒体13を備える直動軸受(例、直動軸受14a)と、直動軸受の筒体13の周囲に装着した回転軸受15とを含む軸棒昇降回転手段16の複数個(例えば、6個)、および枠体11に支持された、上記軸棒昇降回転手段16のそれぞれに第一の動力伝達手段17を介して接続された回転伝達手段18を含む軸棒昇降回転機構19、そして軸棒昇降回転機構19の回転伝達手段18に着脱可能に係合している第二の動力伝達手段42に接続された回転駆動手段43および上記軸棒昇降回転機構19の軸棒12の上端部に接触配置された昇降駆動手段44を備えた基台41を含み、上記軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11が基台41に着脱可能に支持された構成を有している。 The component placement device 10 is connected to a frame 11, a shaft rod 12 connected in parallel to the frame body 11 and connected to a mechanism (not shown) that temporarily holds a placement target component, and the shaft rod 12 can be moved up and down. A plurality of shaft rod lifting and lowering rotation means 16 (for example, a linear motion bearing 14a) including a cylindrical body 13 supported on the shaft and a rotary bearing 15 mounted around the cylindrical body 13 of the linear motion bearing (for example, , 6), and a shaft bar elevating / rotating mechanism 19 including rotation transmitting means 18 supported by the frame 11 and connected to each of the shaft bar elevating / rotating means 16 via the first power transmitting means 17, And the rotation drive means 43 connected to the 2nd power transmission means 42 detachably engaged with the rotation transmission means 18 of the shaft rod raising / lowering rotation mechanism 19 and the upper end of the shaft rod 12 of the shaft rod raising / lowering rotation mechanism 19 Elevating drive means 44 arranged in contact with the part Includes a base 41, it has a configuration in which the frame body 11 of the axle lifting rotation mechanism 19 is detachably supported on the base 41.
 部品配置装置10は、例えば、トレイに収容された6個の部品を、上記とは別のトレイに配置(収容)する装置に組み込んで使用される。 The component placement device 10 is used, for example, by incorporating six components housed in a tray into a device that places (accommodates) them in a different tray.
 次に、部品配置装置10の軸棒昇降回転機構19の構成について説明する。 Next, the configuration of the shaft bar up-and-down rotation mechanism 19 of the component placement device 10 will be described.
 図3は、図1に示す軸棒昇降回転機構19の斜視図である。図4は、図3の軸棒昇降回転機構19の右端の軸棒昇降回転手段16を切断線IV-IV線に沿って切断した断面図である。そして図5は、図3の軸棒昇降回転機構19の第一の動力伝達手段17及び回転伝達手段18の構成を概略的に示す図である。 FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the shaft rod up-and-down rotation mechanism 19 shown in FIG. FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the shaft rod lifting / lowering rotating means 16 at the right end of the shaft rod lifting / lowering mechanism 19 of FIG. 3 cut along the cutting line IV-IV. FIG. 5 is a diagram schematically showing the configuration of the first power transmission means 17 and the rotation transmission means 18 of the shaft rod up-and-down rotation mechanism 19 shown in FIG.
 軸棒昇降回転機構19には、軸棒12と、軸棒12を昇降可能に支持する筒体13を備える直動軸受14aと、直動軸受14aの筒体13の周囲に装着した回転軸受15とを含む軸棒昇降回転手段16の複数個(例えば、6個)が備えられている。複数個の軸棒昇降回転手段16は、枠体11に並列に支持されている。 The shaft rod up-and-down rotation mechanism 19 includes a shaft rod 12, a linear motion bearing 14a including a cylindrical body 13 that supports the shaft rod 12 so as to be movable up and down, and a rotary bearing 15 mounted around the cylindrical body 13 of the linear motion bearing 14a. A plurality of (for example, six) shaft rod lifting and lowering means 16 including The plurality of shaft rod lifting / lowering means 16 are supported in parallel to the frame body 11.
 軸棒昇降回転手段16の数が多いほど効率良く部品を配置することができるが、軸棒昇降回転機構19の構成が複雑になる。従って、軸棒昇降回転手段16の数は、通常は2~50個(好ましくは4~20個)の範囲内の数に設定される。 As the number of the shaft rod lifting / lowering means 16 increases, the components can be arranged efficiently, but the configuration of the shaft rod lifting / lowering mechanism 19 becomes complicated. Accordingly, the number of the shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation means 16 is normally set to a number in the range of 2 to 50 (preferably 4 to 20).
 各々の軸棒昇降回転手段16の軸棒12は上下方向に延びている。軸棒12の下端部には配置対象の部品が一時的に保持される。軸棒12は、配置対象部品を一時的に保持する機構(図示していない)に接続される。 The shaft rod 12 of each shaft rod lifting / lowering rotating means 16 extends in the vertical direction. A part to be arranged is temporarily held at the lower end of the shaft rod 12. The shaft 12 is connected to a mechanism (not shown) that temporarily holds the component to be arranged.
 配置対象部品を一時的に保持する機構としては、公知の部品配置装置の場合と同様の機構を用いることができる。配置対象部品を一時的に保持する機構としては、例えば、減圧装置や電磁石を用いることができる。減圧装置としては、例えば、エゼクタ真空ポンプに代表される公知のポンプを用いることができる。 As the mechanism for temporarily holding the component to be arranged, the same mechanism as that of a known component arranging device can be used. For example, a decompression device or an electromagnet can be used as a mechanism for temporarily holding the placement target component. As the decompression device, for example, a known pump represented by an ejector vacuum pump can be used.
 軸棒昇降回転機構19の軸棒12は中空とされている。軸棒12の上端部は、後に説明する軸棒支持具31の気体通路31mを介して減圧装置(図示していない)に接続されている。減圧装置を作動させることにより、軸棒12の下端部に配置対象の部品を吸着(一時的に保持)させることができる。なお、軸棒の下端部に吸着ノズルを固定して、この吸着ノズルの側面に減圧装置を接続すること、すなわち軸棒を吸着ノズルを介して減圧装置に接続することもできる。この場合、軸棒は中空である必要はない。 The shaft rod 12 of the shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism 19 is hollow. The upper end portion of the shaft rod 12 is connected to a decompression device (not shown) via a gas passage 31m of a shaft rod support 31 described later. By actuating the pressure reducing device, it is possible to attract (temporarily hold) the component to be arranged to the lower end of the shaft 12. It is also possible to fix the suction nozzle to the lower end portion of the shaft rod and connect the decompression device to the side surface of the suction nozzle, that is, connect the shaft rod to the decompression device via the suction nozzle. In this case, the shaft rod need not be hollow.
 直動軸受14aは、軸棒12を昇降可能に支持する筒体13を備えている。 The linear motion bearing 14a includes a cylindrical body 13 that supports the shaft rod 12 so as to be movable up and down.
 軸棒12の外周面には周方向に互いに間隔をあけて複数本(例えば、四本)の溝12aが形成されている。筒体13の内周面には軸棒12の溝12aと対向する複数本の溝13aが形成されている。軸棒12の溝12aと筒体13の溝13aとの間には複数個の転動体(例、球体)21が収容配置されている。各々の転動体21は、溝12aと溝13aとに係合している。このため、筒体13に対して軸棒12が周方向に回転することはない。 A plurality of (for example, four) grooves 12a are formed on the outer circumferential surface of the shaft rod 12 at intervals in the circumferential direction. A plurality of grooves 13 a facing the grooves 12 a of the shaft rod 12 are formed on the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical body 13. A plurality of rolling elements (for example, spheres) 21 are accommodated between the grooves 12 a of the shaft rod 12 and the grooves 13 a of the cylindrical body 13. Each rolling element 21 is engaged with the groove 12a and the groove 13a. For this reason, the shaft 12 does not rotate in the circumferential direction with respect to the cylinder 13.
 直動軸受14aとしては、軸棒を周方向に回転することのないように収容支持する筒体を備える公知の直動軸受を用いることができる。 As the linear motion bearing 14a, a known linear motion bearing including a cylindrical body that accommodates and supports the shaft rod so as not to rotate in the circumferential direction can be used.
 直動軸受14b、14c、14d、14e、14fの構成は、直動軸受14aの構成と同一である。 The configuration of the linear motion bearings 14b, 14c, 14d, 14e, and 14f is the same as the configuration of the linear motion bearing 14a.
 各々の直動軸受の筒体13の周囲には、公知の回転軸受15が装着されている。図4に示すように、筒体13の周囲には複数個(例えば、2個)の回転軸受15を装着することができる。 A known rotary bearing 15 is mounted around the cylinder 13 of each linear motion bearing. As shown in FIG. 4, a plurality of (for example, two) rotary bearings 15 can be mounted around the cylindrical body 13.
 前記のように、直動軸受14aの筒体13に対して軸棒12が周方向に回転することはない。このため、回転軸受15に支持されている直動軸受14aの筒体13を周方向に回転させることにより、軸棒12を筒体13と共に周方向に回転させることができる。 As described above, the shaft 12 does not rotate in the circumferential direction with respect to the cylindrical body 13 of the linear motion bearing 14a. For this reason, the shaft 12 can be rotated in the circumferential direction together with the cylinder 13 by rotating the cylinder 13 of the linear motion bearing 14 a supported by the rotary bearing 15 in the circumferential direction.
 軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11には、回転伝達手段18が支持されている。回転伝達手段18は、第一の動力伝達手段17を介して、前記の軸棒昇降回転手段16のそれぞれに接続されている。 Rotation transmitting means 18 is supported on the frame 11 of the shaft rod up-and-down rotation mechanism 19. The rotation transmission means 18 is connected to each of the above-described shaft rod up-and-down rotation means 16 via the first power transmission means 17.
 回転伝達手段18は、プーリ(例、タイミングプーリ)18a、18bから構成されている。 The rotation transmission means 18 is composed of pulleys (eg, timing pulleys) 18a and 18b.
 第一の動力伝達手段17は、枠体11の上板11aの下方に配置されていて、上記プーリ18aの回転軸の周囲に装着されたプーリ(図示していない)、このプーリに係合するベルト(例、タイミングベルト)17a、17b、同様に枠体11の上板11aの下方に配置されていて、上記プーリ18bの回転軸の周囲に装着されたプーリ(図示していない)、このプーリに係合するベルト17c、17d、そして各々の軸棒昇降回転手段16の直動軸受の筒体13の周囲に装着されたプーリ17eから構成されている。 The first power transmission means 17 is disposed below the upper plate 11a of the frame body 11, and is engaged with a pulley (not shown) mounted around the rotation shaft of the pulley 18a. Belts (e.g., timing belts) 17a and 17b, similarly, a pulley (not shown) disposed below the upper plate 11a of the frame 11 and mounted around the rotation shaft of the pulley 18b. Belts 17c and 17d that are engaged with each other, and a pulley 17e that is mounted around the cylinder 13 of the linear motion bearing of each shaft rod up-and-down rotating means 16.
 ベルト17aは、直動軸受14a、14bの各々の筒体13の周囲に装着されたプーリ17eに係合している。ベルト17bは、直動軸受14b、14cの各々の筒体13の周囲に装着されたプーリ17eに係合している。ベルト17cは、直動軸受14d、14eの各々の筒体13の周囲に装着されたプーリ17eに係合している。そしてベルト17dは、直動軸受14e、14fの各々の筒体13の周囲に装着されたプーリ17eに係合している。 The belt 17a is engaged with a pulley 17e mounted around the cylindrical body 13 of each of the linear motion bearings 14a and 14b. The belt 17b is engaged with a pulley 17e mounted around the cylindrical body 13 of each of the linear motion bearings 14b and 14c. The belt 17c is engaged with a pulley 17e mounted around the cylindrical body 13 of each of the linear motion bearings 14d and 14e. The belt 17d is engaged with a pulley 17e mounted around the cylindrical body 13 of each of the linear motion bearings 14e and 14f.
 従って、プーリ18aを回転させることにより、プーリ18aにベルト17a、17bを介して接続された直動軸受14a、14b、14cが支持している合計で3本の軸棒12を同時に回転させることができる。 Therefore, by rotating the pulley 18a, a total of three shaft rods 12 supported by the linear motion bearings 14a, 14b, 14c connected to the pulley 18a via the belts 17a, 17b can be simultaneously rotated. it can.
 同様に、プーリ18bを回転させることにより、プーリ18bにベルト17c、17dを介して接続されている直動軸受14d、14e、14fが支持している合計で3本の軸棒12を同時に回転させることができる。 Similarly, by rotating the pulley 18b, the three shaft rods 12 in total supported by the linear motion bearings 14d, 14e, 14f connected to the pulley 18b via the belts 17c, 17d are simultaneously rotated. be able to.
 図3及び図4に示すように、各々の軸棒12は、軸棒支持具31に支持されている。軸棒支持具31は、連結棒32を介して互いに固定されている。連結棒32を昇降させることにより、合計で6本の軸棒12を同時に昇降させることができる。 3 and 4, each shaft rod 12 is supported by a shaft rod support 31. The shaft bar support 31 is fixed to each other via a connecting bar 32. By raising and lowering the connecting rod 32, a total of six shaft rods 12 can be raised and lowered simultaneously.
 軸棒支持具31は、軸棒12の上端部を把持する筒体31a、筒体31aを軸棒12と共に回転可能に支持する回転軸受31b、回転軸受31bの周囲に装着された筒体31c、筒体31cの上部に備えられた接続部材31d、接続部材31dの上部に設置されたケース31e、ケース31eに収容されている、頂部にねじ軸31fを持つ球体31g、そして球体31gの上下に配置されている、径方向に微動可能な2個の環状体31hなどから構成されている。 The shaft rod support 31 includes a cylindrical body 31a that grips the upper end of the shaft rod 12, a rotary bearing 31b that rotatably supports the cylindrical body 31a together with the shaft rod 12, a cylindrical body 31c that is mounted around the rotary bearing 31b, A connecting member 31d provided at the upper part of the cylindrical body 31c, a case 31e installed at the upper part of the connecting member 31d, a sphere 31g having a screw shaft 31f at the top and housed in the case 31e, and arranged above and below the sphere 31g The two annular bodies 31h that can be finely moved in the radial direction are formed.
 例えば、仮に上記の軸棒支持具31を用いることなく、軸棒12が連結棒32に直接的に接続固定されている場合、連結棒32に固定された軸棒12の頂部の中心と、枠体11の上板11aの開口部22aの中心と、そして下板11bの開口部22bの中心とが精密に一直線上に配置されていないと、軸棒12が僅かに湾曲することがある。このため、長期間にて軸棒12を昇降させた際に、軸棒12の外周面あるいは軸棒を支持している直動軸受の筒体13の内周面が偏摩耗し易い。従って、軸棒あるいは直動軸受を早期に交換することが必要になる。 For example, if the shaft rod 12 is directly connected and fixed to the connecting rod 32 without using the shaft rod support 31, the center of the top of the shaft rod 12 fixed to the connecting rod 32 and the frame If the center of the opening 22a of the upper plate 11a of the body 11 and the center of the opening 22b of the lower plate 11b are not precisely aligned, the shaft 12 may be slightly curved. For this reason, when the shaft rod 12 is raised and lowered over a long period of time, the outer peripheral surface of the shaft rod 12 or the inner peripheral surface of the cylinder 13 of the linear motion bearing supporting the shaft rod is likely to be unevenly worn. Therefore, it is necessary to replace the shaft rod or the linear motion bearing at an early stage.
 一方、軸棒12が軸棒支持具31を介して連結棒32に接続されている場合、軸棒支持具31の球体31gが、ケース31eの内部で僅かに回転することができ、また環状体31hと共に環状体31hの径方向に僅かに移動することもできる。このため、軸棒12の上端部が連結棒32に強固に固定されることはない。従って、上記のような軸棒12の湾曲を抑制することができる。このため、軸棒12の外周面あるいは軸棒を支持している直動軸受の筒体13の内周面が偏摩耗し難い。従って、軸棒あるいは直動軸受を交換する頻度が低くなる。 On the other hand, when the shaft rod 12 is connected to the connecting rod 32 via the shaft rod support 31, the spherical body 31g of the shaft rod support 31 can be slightly rotated inside the case 31e. It can also move slightly in the radial direction of the annular body 31h together with 31h. For this reason, the upper end portion of the shaft rod 12 is not firmly fixed to the connecting rod 32. Therefore, the curve of the shaft rod 12 as described above can be suppressed. For this reason, the outer peripheral surface of the shaft rod 12 or the inner peripheral surface of the cylinder 13 of the linear motion bearing that supports the shaft rod is less likely to be unevenly worn. Accordingly, the frequency of replacing the shaft rod or the linear motion bearing is reduced.
 また、上記の筒体31aと筒体31cとの間には、環状のパッキン31kが備えられている。パッキン31kは、気体通路31mに接続された減圧装置を作動させて軸棒12の内部を減圧し、そして軸棒12の下端部に配置対象の部品を吸着させた際に、上記の両筒体31a、31cの間から気体通路31mに外気が流入することを防止する。 Further, an annular packing 31k is provided between the cylindrical body 31a and the cylindrical body 31c. The packing 31k operates the pressure reducing device connected to the gas passage 31m to depressurize the inside of the shaft rod 12, and when the components to be arranged are adsorbed to the lower end portion of the shaft rod 12, the both cylinders described above The outside air is prevented from flowing into the gas passage 31m from between 31a and 31c.
 続いて、図1及び図2に示す部品配置装置10の基台41、基台41に備えられている第二の動力伝達手段42、回転駆動手段43、そして昇降駆動手段44の構成について説明する。 Next, the structure of the base 41 of the component placement apparatus 10 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the second power transmission means 42 provided in the base 41, the rotation drive means 43, and the lift drive means 44 will be described. .
 基台41は、基板41a、基板41aの上に設置され、上記の軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11が支持される枠体支持部41b、そして基板41aの上に立設されていて、軸棒昇降回転機構19の上方に昇降駆動手段44を支持する昇降駆動手段支持部41cから構成されている。 The base 41 is installed on the substrate 41a and the substrate 41a, and is erected on the frame body support portion 41b on which the frame body 11 of the above-described shaft rod lifting and rotating mechanism 19 is supported, and on the substrate 41a.

 昇降駆動手段44の回転駆動装置44aを作動させ、回転駆動装置44aの回転軸44bに固定されている円盤44cを時計回り方向あるいは反時計回り方向に回転させることにより、円盤44cに接続されたロッド44eが傾斜移動しながら昇降する。これにより、ロッド44eの下端部に接続された昇降板44dを昇降させることができる。 The rod connected to the disk 44c is operated by operating the rotation drive device 44a of the elevating drive means 44 and rotating the disk 44c fixed to the rotation shaft 44b of the rotation drive device 44a clockwise or counterclockwise. 44e moves up and down while tilting. Thereby, the raising / lowering board 44d connected to the lower end part of the rod 44e can be raised / lowered.
 部品配置装置10では、軸棒昇降回転機構19の各軸棒12の上端部に、軸棒支持具31と連結棒32を介して上記昇降駆動手段44が配置(例えば、接触配置)される。上記の連結棒32と昇降板44dとは、ボルト(図4:33)を介して互いに固定されている。従って、昇降駆動手段44の回転駆動装置44aを作動させることにより、軸棒昇降回転機構19が備える合計で6本の軸棒12を同時に昇降させることができる。 In the component arrangement device 10, the elevating drive means 44 is arranged (for example, contact arrangement) on the upper end portion of each shaft rod 12 of the shaft rod elevating and rotating mechanism 19 via the shaft rod support 31 and the coupling rod 32. The connecting rod 32 and the lifting plate 44d are fixed to each other via bolts (FIG. 4:33). Accordingly, by operating the rotation driving device 44a of the lifting drive means 44, a total of six shaft rods 12 provided in the shaft rod lifting and rotating mechanism 19 can be lifted and lowered simultaneously.
 なお、上記の昇降駆動手段44に代えて、公知の直動駆動装置、例えば、回転駆動装置と送りねじとから構成される直動駆動装置、あるいはリニアモータを用いることもできる。 In addition, it replaces with said raising / lowering drive means 44, A well-known linear motion drive device, for example, the linear motion drive device comprised from a rotational drive device and a feed screw, or a linear motor can also be used.
 図6は、図1に示す基台41の枠体支持部41bの近傍の部位の構成を示す斜視図である。そして図7は、図6に示す第二の動力伝達手段42の構成を概略的に示す図である。 FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing a configuration of a portion in the vicinity of the frame body support portion 41b of the base 41 shown in FIG. FIG. 7 is a diagram schematically showing the configuration of the second power transmission means 42 shown in FIG.
 枠体支持部41bは、基板41aに立設された合計で6本の支柱45と、これらの支柱45に支持されているテーブル板46から構成されている。 The frame body support portion 41 b is composed of a total of six support posts 45 erected on the substrate 41 a and a table plate 46 supported by these support posts 45.
 テーブル板46には、回転駆動手段43が備えられている。回転駆動手段43は、第二の動力伝達手段42に接続されている。第二の動力伝達手段42には、軸棒昇降回転機構の回転伝達手段(図5:18)が着脱可能に係合される。 The table plate 46 is provided with a rotation driving means 43. The rotation driving means 43 is connected to the second power transmission means 42. The second power transmission means 42 is detachably engaged with the rotation transmission means (FIG. 5: 18) of the shaft rod lifting and lowering mechanism.
 第二の動力伝達手段42は、テーブル板46の下方に配置されているベルト42a、ベルト42aをテーブル板46に支持している合計で8個のプーリ42b、42c、42d、42e、42f、42g、42h、42k、テーブル板46の上方に配置されていて、上記プーリ42bの回転軸の周囲に装着されたプーリ42m、そしてプーリ42mにベルト42nを介して接続されたプーリ42pから構成されている。プーリ42pは、回転駆動手段43の回転軸に装着されている。 The second power transmission means 42 includes a total of eight pulleys 42b, 42c, 42d, 42e, 42f, and 42g that support the belt 42a and the belt 42a disposed below the table plate 46 on the table plate 46. 42h, 42k, arranged above the table plate 46, a pulley 42m mounted around the rotating shaft of the pulley 42b, and a pulley 42p connected to the pulley 42m via a belt 42n. . The pulley 42 p is attached to the rotation shaft of the rotation driving means 43.
 回転駆動手段43を作動させると、回転駆動手段43にプーリ42p、ベルト42n、そしてプーリ42mを介して接続しているプーリ42bが回転駆動され、プーリ42bを含む上記の合計で8個のプーリに支持されたベルト42aが走行する。 When the rotation driving means 43 is operated, the pulley 42p connected to the rotation driving means 43 via the pulley 42p, the belt 42n, and the pulley 42m is rotationally driven, so that the total of eight pulleys including the pulley 42b is obtained. The supported belt 42a travels.
 一方、テーブル板46の上面には、リニアガイド47、48が設置されている。リニアガイド47は、レール47aとレール47aに沿って移動可能なスライダ47bから構成されている。同様に、リニアガイド48は、レール48aとレール48aに沿って移動可能なスライダ48bから構成されている。 On the other hand, linear guides 47 and 48 are installed on the upper surface of the table plate 46. The linear guide 47 includes a rail 47a and a slider 47b that can move along the rail 47a. Similarly, the linear guide 48 includes a rail 48a and a slider 48b that can move along the rail 48a.
 リニアガイド47のスライダ47bには、プーリ支持部材51が備えられている。プーリ支持部材51の下面には、軸棒53aが備えられている。軸棒53aは、テーブル板46の長孔46aを貫通している。軸棒53aの下端部には、上記プーリ42dが回転可能に支持されている。従って、プーリ42dは、スライダ47bと共にレール47aに沿って移動可能とされている。 A pulley support member 51 is provided on the slider 47 b of the linear guide 47. A shaft bar 53 a is provided on the lower surface of the pulley support member 51. The shaft bar 53 a passes through the long hole 46 a of the table plate 46. The pulley 42d is rotatably supported at the lower end of the shaft bar 53a. Accordingly, the pulley 42d is movable along the rail 47a together with the slider 47b.
 同様に、リニアガイド48のスライダ48bには、プーリ支持部材52が備えられている。プーリ支持部材52の下面には、軸棒53bが備えられている。軸棒53bは、テーブル板46の長孔46bを貫通している。軸棒53bの下端部には、上記プーリ42hが回転可能に支持されている。従って、プーリ42hは、スライダ48bと共にレール48aに沿って移動可能とされている。 Similarly, the slider 48b of the linear guide 48 is provided with a pulley support member 52. A shaft bar 53 b is provided on the lower surface of the pulley support member 52. The shaft bar 53 b passes through the long hole 46 b of the table plate 46. The pulley 42h is rotatably supported at the lower end of the shaft bar 53b. Accordingly, the pulley 42h is movable along the rail 48a together with the slider 48b.
 テーブル板46の上面には、支柱54a、54bが立設されている。そして、上記のプーリ支持部材51の開口部51aと支柱54aとは、引張コイルばね(図示していない)を介して互いに接続されている。同様に、上記のプーリ支持部材52の開口部52aと支柱54bとは引張コイルばね(図示していない)を介して互いに接続されている。 Supporters 54 a and 54 b are erected on the upper surface of the table plate 46. And the opening part 51a of the said pulley support member 51 and the support | pillar 54a are mutually connected via the tension coil spring (not shown). Similarly, the opening 52a of the pulley support member 52 and the column 54b are connected to each other via a tension coil spring (not shown).
 従って、図6及び図7に示すように、上記の軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11が、後に説明する基台41に設置された枠体支持具55に装着されていない状態では、プーリ42d、42hは、それぞれ支柱54a、54bの側に移動して、上記ベルト42aに破断あるいは緩みを生じない程度の適当な張力を付与する。 Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, in the state where the frame body 11 of the above-described shaft rod lifting and lowering rotation mechanism 19 is not mounted on the frame body support 55 installed on the base 41 described later, the pulley 42d and 42h move to the support columns 54a and 54b, respectively, and apply an appropriate tension to the belt 42a so as not to break or loosen.
 テーブル板46の下方には、上記の軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11を着脱可能に支持する枠体支持具55が備えられている。 Below the table plate 46, there is provided a frame support 55 that detachably supports the frame 11 of the above-described shaft rod lifting and rotating mechanism 19.
 枠体支持具55は、ケース55a、ケース55aの前面に備えられていて、上記の軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11が装着される際に枠体11を位置決めする2個の突起55b、そして枠体11を一時的に保持する2本の鉤状のアーム55cを備えている。2本のアーム55cは、各々の基部がアーム支持具55dに支持されていて、上記基部を中心として揺動可能とされている。各々のアーム55cは、アーム支持具55dの内部に収容されたコイルばねにより、その先端部が対向するアームの側に移動するように駆動力が付与されている。 The frame body support 55 is provided on the front surface of the case 55a, the case 55a, and two projections 55b for positioning the frame body 11 when the frame body 11 of the above-described shaft rod lifting and rotating mechanism 19 is mounted. And the two hook-shaped arms 55c which hold | maintain the frame 11 temporarily are provided. Each of the two arms 55c is supported by an arm support 55d, and can swing about the base. Each arm 55c is applied with a driving force by a coil spring housed in the arm support 55d so that the tip of the arm 55c moves to the opposite arm side.
 ケース55aの前面には、合計で4本の可動ピン55eが備えられている。各々の可動ピン55eは、ケース55aの内部に収容されているコイルばねにより、前方側に移動するように駆動力が付与されている。 A total of four movable pins 55e are provided on the front surface of the case 55a. Each movable pin 55e is given a driving force so as to move forward by a coil spring housed inside the case 55a.
 次に、軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11を基台41に着脱する手順について説明する。 Next, a procedure for attaching and detaching the frame 11 of the shaft rod up-and-down rotating mechanism 19 to the base 41 will be described.
 先ず、図3に示す軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11を、図6に示す枠体支持具55の前方側に配置して、枠体11を枠体支持具55に押し付ける。これにより、枠体11の支柱11cに形成された開口部11dに、枠体支持具55の位置決め用の突起55bが挿入され、枠体11の位置決めが行なわれる。続いて図1に示すように、枠体支持具55の鉤状のアーム55cの先端部が、枠体11の支柱11cに係合し、枠体11を前方側に移動しないように仮固定する。この際に、枠体支持具55が備える4本の可動ピン55eが、枠体11の支柱11cに、枠体11を前方側に移動させる駆動力を付与する。これにより、枠体11の支柱11cの前後が枠体支持具55のアーム55cと可動ピン55eとにより緊密に支持される。このため、枠体11の前後方向への微動が防止される。 First, the frame 11 of the shaft rod lifting and lowering rotation mechanism 19 shown in FIG. 3 is arranged on the front side of the frame support 55 shown in FIG. 6 and the frame 11 is pressed against the frame support 55. Thereby, the positioning projection 55b of the frame support 55 is inserted into the opening 11d formed in the column 11c of the frame 11, and the frame 11 is positioned. Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 1, the distal end portion of the bowl-shaped arm 55 c of the frame body support tool 55 engages with the column 11 c of the frame body 11 to temporarily fix the frame body 11 so as not to move forward. . At this time, the four movable pins 55 e included in the frame body support tool 55 apply a driving force that moves the frame body 11 forward to the support pillar 11 c of the frame body 11. Thereby, the front and back of the support 11c of the frame 11 are closely supported by the arm 55c of the frame support 55 and the movable pin 55e. For this reason, the fine movement to the front-back direction of the frame 11 is prevented.
 次いて、図1及び図2に示すように、軸棒昇降回転機構19の軸棒支持具31を連結している連結棒32を、ボルト(図4:33)を用いて昇降板44dに固定する。これにより、軸棒昇降回転機構19を昇降駆動手段44に接続する。 Next, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the connecting rod 32 connecting the shaft rod support 31 of the shaft rod lifting and lowering rotation mechanism 19 is fixed to the lifting plate 44d using bolts (FIG. 4: 33). To do. As a result, the shaft rod lifting / lowering mechanism 19 is connected to the lifting / lowering driving means 44.
 このようにして、軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11を基台41に簡単に且つ短時間で取り付けることができる。 In this way, the frame 11 of the shaft bar lifting and lowering rotation mechanism 19 can be easily attached to the base 41 in a short time.
 枠体11を基台41から取り外す際には、先ずは昇降駆動手段44の昇降板44dから連結棒32を取り外す。次いで枠体支持具55のアーム55cの先端部を対向するアームの側とは逆側に移動することにより、枠体11の支柱11cとアーム55cとの係合を解除する。そして枠体11を前方側に移動させる。このようにして、軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11を基台41から簡単に且つ短時間で取り外すことができる。 When removing the frame 11 from the base 41, first, the connecting rod 32 is removed from the elevating plate 44d of the elevating drive means 44. Next, the engagement between the support 11c of the frame 11 and the arm 55c is released by moving the tip of the arm 55c of the frame support 55 to the opposite side of the opposing arm. Then, the frame body 11 is moved forward. In this way, the frame 11 of the shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism 19 can be easily detached from the base 41 in a short time.
 図8は、図5に示す回転伝達手段18と図7に示す第二の動力伝達手段42とを、軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11を基台に装着することにより互いに係合させた状態にて示す図である。 In FIG. 8, the rotation transmission means 18 shown in FIG. 5 and the second power transmission means 42 shown in FIG. 7 are engaged with each other by mounting the frame 11 of the shaft bar lifting and lowering rotation mechanism 19 on the base. It is a figure shown in a state.
 図8に示すように、軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11を基台に装着すると、軸棒昇降回転機構19の回転伝達手段18のプーリ18a、18bが、第二の動力伝達手段42のベルト42aに押しつけられて係合する。これにより、第一の動力伝達手段17が(例えば、回転伝達手段18を介して)第二の動力伝達手段42に係合する。この際に、第二の動力伝達手段42のプーリ42d、42hは、ベルト42aに破断あるいは緩みを生じない程度の適当な張力が付与されるように、それぞれ図8に記入した矢印56a、56bが示す方向に(図6に示す支柱54a、54bの側とは逆側の方向)に移動する。 As shown in FIG. 8, when the frame 11 of the shaft rod lifting / lowering mechanism 19 is attached to the base, the pulleys 18 a and 18 b of the rotation transmitting means 18 of the shaft rod lifting / lowering mechanism 19 are connected to the second power transmitting means 42. The belt 42a is pressed and engaged. Thereby, the first power transmission means 17 is engaged with the second power transmission means 42 (for example, via the rotation transmission means 18). At this time, the pulleys 42d and 42h of the second power transmission means 42 are respectively provided with arrows 56a and 56b shown in FIG. 8 so that an appropriate tension is applied so that the belt 42a is not broken or loosened. It moves in the direction shown (the direction opposite to the side of the columns 54a and 54b shown in FIG. 6).
 従って、図1及び図2に示すように、軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11を枠体支持具55を介して基台41に装着(支持)すると、軸棒昇降回転機構19の各々の軸棒昇降回転手段16に、第一の動力伝達手段17、回転伝達手段18、そして第二の動力伝達手段42を介して、直ちに回転駆動手段43を接続することができる。 Accordingly, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, when the frame body 11 of the shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism 19 is mounted (supported) on the base 41 via the frame body support 55, each of the shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanisms 19 is provided. The rotation driving means 43 can be immediately connected to the shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation means 16 via the first power transmission means 17, the rotation transmission means 18, and the second power transmission means 42.
 このように、部品配置装置10は、軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11の基台41への取り付け(あるいは基台41からの取り外し)、そして各々の軸棒昇降回転手段16の回転駆動手段43への接続(あるいは回転駆動手段43からの取り外し)を極めて簡単に且つ短時間で行なうことができる。 In this way, the component placement apparatus 10 is configured to attach (or remove from) the base body 41 of the frame body 11 of the shaft bar up-and-down rotation mechanism 19 and to rotate and drive the shaft bar up-and-down rotation means 16. Connection to 43 (or removal from the rotation drive means 43) can be performed very easily and in a short time.
 このため、部品配置装置10に装着されている軸棒昇降回転機構19とは別の軸棒昇降回転機構を予め用意しておくと、軸棒昇降回転機構19の枠体11を基台41から取り外し、上記の別の軸棒昇降回転機構の枠体を基台41に取り付けることにより、軸棒あるいは直動軸受を極めて簡単にかつ短時間で交換することができる。 For this reason, when a shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism different from the shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism 19 mounted on the component placement device 10 is prepared in advance, the frame 11 of the shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism 19 is removed from the base 41. By removing and attaching the frame body of the other shaft bar lifting and rotating mechanism to the base 41, the shaft bar or the linear motion bearing can be replaced very easily and in a short time.
 また、枠体11により、各々の軸棒12を支持している直動軸受及び回転軸受15(すなわち軸棒昇降回転手段)の相互の位置関係(例えば、隣り合う軸棒同士の間隔)が予め固定されているため、軸棒あるいは直動軸受を交換するたびに上記の位置関係を調節する作業も不要になる。 Further, a mutual positional relationship (for example, an interval between adjacent shaft rods) of the linear motion bearing and the rotary bearing 15 (that is, the shaft rod lifting and rotating means) supporting each shaft rod 12 by the frame 11 is previously set. Since it is fixed, it is not necessary to adjust the positional relationship every time the shaft rod or the linear motion bearing is replaced.
 なお、図1及び図2に示す部品配置装置10では、枠体11が、2本のアーム55cを備える枠体支持具55を用いて基台41に支持されている。枠体11の着脱を頻繁に行なう必要がなければ、枠体11を、例えば、ボルトを用いて基台41に固定することもできる。 In addition, in the component arrangement | positioning apparatus 10 shown in FIG.1 and FIG.2, the frame 11 is supported by the base 41 using the frame support tool 55 provided with the two arms 55c. If it is not necessary to attach and detach the frame body 11 frequently, the frame body 11 can be fixed to the base 41 using, for example, a bolt.
 また、図1~図8に示すように、部品配置装置10では、回転伝達手段18が枠体11に設置されたプーリ18a、18bを備え、第二の動力伝達手段42が基台41に設置されたベルト42aを備え、そして上記のプーリ18a、18bとベルト42aとが互いに係合している。これとは逆に、回転伝達手段が枠体に設置されたベルトを備え、第二の動力伝達手段が基台に設置されたプーリを備え、そして上記のプーリとベルトとが互いに係合していてもよい。 Also, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 8, in the component placement device 10, the rotation transmission means 18 includes pulleys 18a and 18b installed on the frame 11, and the second power transmission means 42 is installed on the base 41. And the pulleys 18a and 18b and the belt 42a are engaged with each other. In contrast, the rotation transmission means includes a belt installed on the frame, the second power transmission means includes a pulley installed on the base, and the pulley and the belt are engaged with each other. May be.
 図9は、回転伝達手段及び第二の動力伝達手段の別の構成例を、両者の手段を互いに係合させた状態にて概略的に示す図である。 FIG. 9 is a diagram schematically showing another configuration example of the rotation transmission means and the second power transmission means in a state in which both means are engaged with each other.
 図9に示す回転伝達手段98としては、枠体11に設置されている歯車98a、98bが用いられている。そして第二の動力伝達手段92としては、基台が備えるテーブル板46に設置されていて、それぞれ回転駆動装置の回転軸93a、93bに装着された歯車92a、92bが用いられている。なお、図9に示す第一の動力伝達手段17の構成は、図8に示す第一の動力伝達手段の構成と同一である。 As the rotation transmission means 98 shown in FIG. 9, gears 98a and 98b installed on the frame body 11 are used. And as the 2nd power transmission means 92, it is installed in the table board 46 with which a base is equipped, The gearwheels 92a and 92b with which the rotating shafts 93a and 93b of the rotation drive device were each mounted are used. The configuration of the first power transmission means 17 shown in FIG. 9 is the same as the configuration of the first power transmission means shown in FIG.
 そして、上記の回転駆動装置を作動させ、回転軸93aを回転させることにより、回転軸93aに歯車92a、歯車98a、そして第一の動力伝達手段17を介して接続されている直動軸受14a、14b、14cが支持している合計で3本の軸棒12を同時に回転させることができる。 Then, by operating the rotary drive device and rotating the rotary shaft 93a, the linear motion bearing 14a connected to the rotary shaft 93a via the gear 92a, the gear 98a, and the first power transmission means 17, A total of three shaft rods 12 supported by 14b and 14c can be rotated simultaneously.
 同様に、上記の回転駆動装置を作動させ、回転軸93bを回転させることにより、回転軸93bに歯車92b、歯車98b、そして第一の動力伝達手段17を介して接続されている直動軸受14d、14e、14fが支持している合計で3本の軸棒12を同時に回転させることができる。 Similarly, the linear drive bearing 14d connected to the rotating shaft 93b via the gear 92b, the gear 98b, and the first power transmission means 17 by operating the above-described rotation driving device and rotating the rotating shaft 93b. , 14e, 14f, a total of three shaft rods 12 can be simultaneously rotated.
 このように、回転伝達手段及び第二の動力伝達手段として、歯車を用いることもできる。また、第一の動力伝達手段として、歯車を用いることもできる。 Thus, gears can be used as the rotation transmission means and the second power transmission means. A gear can also be used as the first power transmission means.
 また、例えば、回転伝達手段及び第二の動力伝達手段の組み合わせとして、ラック及びピニオンの組み合わせを用いることもできる。 Also, for example, a combination of a rack and a pinion can be used as a combination of the rotation transmission means and the second power transmission means.
 以上のように、本発明の部品配置装置は、例えば、配置対象の部品の種類あるいは部品を収容するトレイの種類に変更があった場合に、部品配置装置に装着されている軸棒昇降回転機構を、予め用意された別の構成の軸棒昇降回転機構に直ちに交換することもできるため、汎用性にも優れている。 As described above, the component placement device according to the present invention is, for example, a shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism that is mounted on the component placement device when the type of component to be placed or the type of tray that houses the component is changed. Can be immediately replaced with a shaft rod lifting and rotating mechanism having a different configuration prepared in advance, so that it is excellent in versatility.
 例えば、部品配置装置に装着されている軸棒昇降回転機構を、特定の部品の保持に適した吸着ノズルを下端部に備える軸棒を備える軸棒昇降回転機構、あるいは特定のトレイに収容された部品の間隔に応じた間隔に軸棒の間隔が設定された軸棒昇降回転機構、あるいはより多くの(あるいは少ない)本数の軸棒を備える軸棒昇降回転機構に交換することができる。 For example, the shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism mounted on the component placement device is housed in a shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism including a shaft rod having a suction nozzle suitable for holding a specific component at the lower end, or a specific tray. It can be exchanged for a shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism in which the interval between the shaft rods is set at an interval corresponding to the interval of the parts, or a shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism having a larger (or fewer) number of shaft rods.
 本明細書では、本発明の部品配置装置を、図1及び図2に示した同時に6個の部品を配置する装置を代表例として説明を行った。部品配置装置の汎用性を更に高くするため、昇降駆動手段を軸棒昇降回転機構の各軸棒を独立に昇降駆動可能な構成とすること、例えば、軸棒の数と同数の昇降駆動手段を備え、各軸棒を各昇降駆動手段によって独立に昇降駆動可能な構成とすることもできる。同様に、回転駆動手段を軸棒昇降回転機構の各軸棒を独立に回転駆動可能な構成とすること、例えば、軸棒の数と同数の回転駆動手段を備え、各軸棒を各回転駆動手段によって独立に回転駆動可能な構成とすることもできる。 In the present specification, the component placement device of the present invention has been described by taking the device for simultaneously placing six components shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 as a representative example. In order to further increase the versatility of the component placement device, the lifting drive means is configured to be able to drive the shaft rods of the shaft bar lifting and rotating mechanism independently, for example, as many lifting drive means as the number of shaft rods. It is also possible to provide a configuration in which each shaft rod can be driven up and down independently by each lifting drive means. Similarly, the rotation drive means is configured to be capable of independently rotating and driving each shaft rod of the shaft rod lifting and rotating mechanism. For example, the same number of rotation drive means as the number of shaft rods is provided, and each shaft rod is driven to rotate. It can also be set as the structure which can be rotationally driven independently by a means.
 本発明の部品配置装置は、電子部品(特に、各種の電子機器に組み込まれる電子部品)、機械部品、光学部品に代表される各種の部品を配置するために用いられる。電子部品の例としては、チップコンデンサやチップ抵抗に代表される微小なチップ型電子部品が挙げられる。機械部品の例としては、腕時計に組み込まれる微小な水晶振動子が挙げられる。そして光学部品としては、携帯型電話機に搭載されるカメラに用いられる微小な光学レンズや光学フィルタが挙げられる。 The component placement device of the present invention is used to place various components represented by electronic components (particularly, electronic components incorporated in various electronic devices), mechanical components, and optical components. Examples of electronic components include minute chip type electronic components typified by chip capacitors and chip resistors. As an example of the mechanical component, there is a minute crystal resonator incorporated in a wristwatch. And as an optical component, the micro optical lens and optical filter which are used for the camera mounted in a portable telephone are mentioned.
 本発明の部品配置装置は、例えば、微小なチップ型電子部品をプリント配線板の表面に実装する装置、微小な光学レンズや光学フィルタを携帯型電話機の内部の所定位置に装着する装置、あるいはトレイに収容された微小部品を移動して、顧客の注文に応じて別のトレイに収容配置する装置に組み込んで有利に用いることができる。 The component placement device of the present invention includes, for example, a device for mounting a minute chip-type electronic component on the surface of a printed wiring board, a device for mounting a minute optical lens or optical filter at a predetermined position inside a portable telephone, or a tray.

 前記の図1の部品配置装置10は、図10に示すように予め組み立て済の軸棒昇降回転機構(配置対象部品一時的保持装置)19を、予め組み立て済の第二の動力伝達手段42を備える基台41に、第一の動力伝達手段17と第二の動力伝達手段42とが(例えば、回転伝達手段18を介して)係合するようにして装着すること、すなわち本発明の部品配置装置の組み立て方法を実施することにより、簡単に且つ短時間で組み立てることができる。 As shown in FIG. 10, the component placement device 10 of FIG. 1 includes a shaft bar lifting / lowering rotation mechanism (placement target component temporary holding device) 19 that has been assembled in advance, and a second power transmission means 42 that has been assembled in advance. The first power transmission means 17 and the second power transmission means 42 are attached to the base 41 provided so as to engage (for example, via the rotation transmission means 18), that is, the component arrangement of the present invention By assembling the apparatus, the apparatus can be assembled easily and in a short time.
 また、図1の部品配置装置10は、例えば、図11に示すように軸棒112が湾曲して軸棒昇降回転機構の作動に不具合が生じた際に、この軸棒昇降回転機構(作動に不具合が生じた配置対象部品一時的保持装置)19aを基台41から離脱させ、ついで別に用意した予め組み立て済の軸棒昇降回転機構(作動に不具合を生じていない配置対象部品一時的保持装置)19bを基台41に、第一の動力伝達手段17と第二の動力伝達手段42とが(例えば、回転伝達手段18を介して)係合するようにして装着すること、すなわち本発明の部品配置装置の修理方法を実施することにより、簡単に且つ短時間で修理することができる。 Further, for example, when the shaft rod 112 is bent and a malfunction occurs in the operation of the shaft rod lifting and rotating mechanism as shown in FIG. Displacement target component temporary holding device in which a failure has occurred) 19a is detached from the base 41, and then a separately assembled shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism (arrangement target component temporary holding device in which operation does not cause a failure) 19b is mounted on the base 41 so that the first power transmission means 17 and the second power transmission means 42 are engaged with each other (for example, via the rotation transmission means 18). By performing the repair method of the placement device, the repair can be performed easily and in a short time.
 軸棒昇降回転機構に生じる作動の不具合の例としては、軸棒の湾曲による部品を配置する精度の低下、そして軸棒の偏摩耗による部品を配置する精度の低下などが挙げられる。 Examples of malfunctions occurring in the shaft rod lifting / lowering mechanism include a decrease in accuracy in placing components due to the curvature of the shaft rod, and a decrease in accuracy in placing components due to uneven wear of the shaft rod.
 更にまた、図1の部品配置装置10は、図12に示すように部品配置装置に装着されている軸棒昇降回転機構(配置対象部品一時的保持装置)19を基台41から離脱させ、ついで別に用意した予め組み立て済の軸棒昇降回転機構(配置対象部品一時的保持装置)19cを基台41に、第一の動力伝達手段17と第二の動力伝達手段42とが(例えば、回転伝達手段18を介して)互いに係合するようにして装着すること、すなわち本発明の部品配置装置の配置対象部品一時的保持装置の交換方法を実施することにより、軸棒昇降回転機構を簡単に且つ短時間で交換することができる。 Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 12, the component placement apparatus 10 in FIG. 1 disengages the shaft bar lifting / lowering rotation mechanism (arrangement target component temporary holding device) 19 mounted on the component placement apparatus 19 from the base 41, then. Separately prepared shaft rod lifting and lowering rotation mechanism (arrangement target component temporary holding device) 19c is used as a base 41, and first power transmission means 17 and second power transmission means 42 (for example, rotation transmission). By mounting the components so as to be engaged with each other (through the means 18), that is, by implementing the method of replacing the component temporary holding device of the component arranging device of the present invention, It can be exchanged in a short time.
 図12に示すように、上記の別に用意した予め組み立て済の軸棒昇降回転機構19cは、基台41から離脱させた軸棒昇降回転機構19と同一の構成を持つものである。このような交換方法は、例えば、軸棒昇降回転機構の点検や保守管理を行なう際に有利に用いることができる。 As shown in FIG. 12, the separately prepared shaft bar lifting / lowering rotation mechanism 19c prepared separately has the same configuration as the shaft bar lifting / lowering rotation mechanism 19 detached from the base 41. Such an exchange method can be advantageously used, for example, when inspecting and maintaining the shaft bar lifting and rotating mechanism.
 具体的には、上記の交換方法を実施することにより、例えば、基台41から離脱させた軸棒昇降回転機構19の軸棒と直動軸受との間の潤滑剤(例、グリース)の充填量を点検し、そして充填量が不足している場合に潤滑剤を補充する保守管理(メンテナンス)の作業を行なっている最中にも、基台41に装着した軸棒昇降回転機構19cを用いて部品を配置する作業を継続することができる。 Specifically, by performing the above replacement method, for example, filling of a lubricant (eg, grease) between the shaft rod of the shaft rod lifting and lowering rotation mechanism 19 detached from the base 41 and the linear motion bearing The shaft rod up-and-down rotating mechanism 19c attached to the base 41 is used during the maintenance management (maintenance) operation of checking the amount and replenishing the lubricant when the filling amount is insufficient. Thus, the work of arranging the parts can be continued.
 上記の別に用意する軸棒昇降回転機構としては、様々な構成のものを用いることができる。次に、図13を用いて、その一例について説明する。 As the shaft bar lifting / lowering rotation mechanism prepared separately, those of various configurations can be used. Next, an example will be described with reference to FIG.
 図13に示すように、別に用意した予め組み立て済の軸棒昇降回転機構19dは、基台41から離脱させた軸棒昇降回転機構19とは異なる構成を持つが、互換性を持つものであってもよい。このような交換方法は、例えば、軸棒昇降回転機構の機能やグレードを変更する際に有利に用いることができる。 As shown in FIG. 13, the separately prepared shaft rod lifting / lowering mechanism 19d prepared in advance has a different configuration from the shaft rod lifting / lowering mechanism 19 detached from the base 41, but is compatible. May be. Such an exchange method can be advantageously used, for example, when changing the function or grade of the shaft rod lifting and rotating mechanism.
 上記の基台41から離脱させた軸棒昇降回転機構19は、軸棒を合計で6本備える構成を有している。一方、別に用意した軸棒昇降回転機構19dは、軸棒を合計で4本備える構成を有している。このように、軸棒昇降回転機構19dは、軸棒昇降回転機構19とは異なる構成を持つが、互換性を持つものである。なお「互換性を持つもの」とは、軸棒昇降回転機構19dが、軸棒昇降回転機構19が取り外された基台41に装着可能なものであることを意味する。 The shaft bar lifting / lowering rotation mechanism 19 separated from the base 41 has a configuration including six shaft bars in total. On the other hand, the shaft rod lifting and lowering rotation mechanism 19d prepared separately has a configuration including a total of four shaft rods. As described above, the shaft rod elevating / rotating mechanism 19d has a configuration different from that of the shaft rod elevating / rotating mechanism 19, but is compatible. “Compatible” means that the shaft rod lifting / lowering mechanism 19d can be mounted on the base 41 from which the shaft rod lifting / lowering mechanism 19 is removed.
 図14は、図13に示す軸棒昇降回転機構19dを装着した部品配置装置の斜視図である。 FIG. 14 is a perspective view of a component placement device equipped with the shaft rod up-and-down rotation mechanism 19d shown in FIG.
 このように、部品配置装置に装着されている軸棒昇降回転機構19を別に用意した軸棒昇降回転機構19dと交換することにより、例えば、部品を収容するトレイの種類に変更があった場合にも、変更後のトレイに応じた本数(例えば、4本)の軸棒を備える軸棒昇降回転機構19dを用いて部品を配置する作業を直ちに開始することができる。 Thus, for example, when the type of the tray for storing the components is changed by replacing the shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism 19 mounted on the component placement device with a separately prepared shaft rod lifting / lowering rotation mechanism 19d. In addition, it is possible to immediately start the operation of arranging the parts by using the shaft bar lifting / lowering rotation mechanism 19d including the number (for example, four) of the shaft rods according to the changed tray.
 図15は、図14に示す軸棒昇降回転機構19dの第一の動力伝達手段27と第二の動力伝達手段42とを(例えば、回転伝達手段18を介して)互いに係合させた状態で概略的に示す図である。 15 shows a state in which the first power transmission means 27 and the second power transmission means 42 of the shaft rod lifting and lowering rotation mechanism 19d shown in FIG. 14 are engaged with each other (for example, via the rotation transmission means 18). It is a figure shown roughly.
 図15に示す軸棒昇降回転機構19dの第一の動力伝達手段27の構成は、軸棒12の数(従って軸棒を支持する直動軸受の数と直動軸受を支持する回転軸受の数)が異なること以外は、図8に示す軸棒昇降回転機構19の第一の動力伝達手段17の構成と同様である。 The configuration of the first power transmission means 27 of the shaft rod up-and-down rotation mechanism 19d shown in FIG. 15 includes the number of shaft rods 12 (the number of linear motion bearings supporting the shaft rods and the number of rotary bearings supporting the linear motion bearings). 8) is the same as the configuration of the first power transmission means 17 of the shaft rod up-and-down rotation mechanism 19 shown in FIG.
 軸棒昇降回転機構の機能の変更の例としては、軸棒の本数や長さを変更することが挙げられる。軸棒昇降回転機構のグレードの変更の例としては、直動軸受や回転軸受を軸棒の更に高精度での昇降や回転を可能とするものに変更すること(アップグレード)が挙げられる。 An example of changing the function of the shaft rod lifting and rotating mechanism is to change the number and length of the shaft rods. As an example of the change of the grade of the shaft rod lifting and rotating mechanism, there is a change (upgrade) of a linear motion bearing or a rotary bearing to one that enables the shaft rod to be lifted and rotated with higher accuracy.

In order to enable smooth rotation of the linear bearing that supports the shaft rod, an oil-containing resin material or an oil-containing metal material can also be used.
