The loader 18 is configured to be movable within a movement area (dotted line area in FIG. 1) along the transport direction of the substrate S on the front side of the plurality of mounting apparatuses 20 and the storage box 16 . The loader 18 moves within the movement area and performs an automatic replacement work of automatically replacing (recovering or replenishing) the members used in the mounting process. For example, the loader 18 automatically replaces the feeder 24, which is a replaceable working unit for the mounting apparatus 20. The mounting unit 22 includes a head, a collection member such as a nozzle, a solder storage member, a screen mask, and the like. It suffices if the members used in the mounting-related processing can be automatically replaced.

The storage 16 is an in-line storage that stores various members used in mounting-related processing within each mounting line 10, and stores the feeder 24, for example. In the stocker 16, the operator M can supply (replenish) the feeder 24 and retrieve it. In addition, the loader 18 is capable of automatically exchanging the feeders 24 in the storage 16. The necessary feeders 24 are retrieved from the storage 16 and supplied to the mounting apparatus 20, and the used feeders 24 are replaced by the mounting apparatus 20. , and collected in the stocker 16.

Although not shown, the AGV 55 includes a motor for rotating wheels and a battery for supplying power, and automatically moves members used for mounting-related processing such as the feeder 24 between the warehouse 60 and the storage warehouse 16. transport. The AGV 55, for example, takes out the necessary feeder 24 from the warehouse 60 and automatically conveys it to the stocker 16 for distribution (supply), or collects the used feeder 24 from the stocker 16 and automatically conveys it to the warehouse 60. accommodate. Although the AGV 55 automatically conveys the feeder 24, it also automatically conveys the members used in mounting-related processing, such as the heads, nozzles, and other sampling members provided in the mounting unit 22, solder storage members, screen masks, and the like. I wish I had.

Here, between the AGV 55 and the stocker 16, for example, in a state where a plurality of feeders 24 are mounted on a magazine 55a as a predetermined mounting member, the magazine 55a can be collectively and automatically exchanged. The loader 18 inserts and removes the feeder 24 into and out of the other storage unit while one of the above-described first storage unit 16a and second storage unit 16b of the storage unit 16 is vacant. 24 is recovered to the other storage unit. When the AGV 55 distributes and collects the feeders 24, the AGV 55 first stores a plurality of feeders 24 to be served in one of the first storage section 16a and the second storage section 16b of the storage 16, and stores the plurality of feeders 24 in the magazine 55a. Pay out and serve. Next, the AGV 55 receives and collects the plurality of feeders 24 collected in the other one of the first storage section 16a and the second storage section 16b together with the magazine 55a. The AGV 55 automatically conveys the collected feeder 24 to the warehouse 60 .

In the warehouse 60, various members such as the feeder 24 accommodated by the worker M and the feeder 24 automatically transported by the AGV 55 are stored. Note that the AGV 55 can collectively load and unload a plurality of feeders 24 into and out of the warehouse 60 together with the magazine 55a. Also, the charging station 57 is a facility for charging the batteries of one or a plurality of AGVs 55 parked at a predetermined charging position.

The management device 5 is configured to be able to communicate with each mounting control device 38 and the transport control device 58 of each mounting line 10 . The management device 5 transmits the production plan and production information of the board S of each mounting line 10 to each mounting control device 38 . The management device 5 receives the production status of the boards S, the usage status of the feeders 24 required for production, the arrangement status of the feeders 24 in the stocker 16, and the like from each mounting control device 38 . Note that the production status includes the status of setup changes such as replacement of the screen mask and replacement of the feeder 24 as production preparations for substrates of different types. In addition, the management device 5 transmits a travel plan (transportation plan) of each AGV 55 to the transport control device 58, and receives from the transport control device 58 the travel status, remaining battery level, charge status, and the like of each AGV 55. In addition, the management device 5 schedules the transportation and charging of the feeder 24 in each AGV 55 based on the production plan of the board S of each mounting line 10, the production status of the board S, information on the feeder 24 necessary for production, and the like. Create a trip plan including;

The operation of the mounting system 1 configured in this way, especially the traveling control of the AGV 55 will be described. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing an example of AGV running control, which is executed by the transport control device 58 when the AGV 55 collects the feeder 24 of the storage 16 . FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of how the AGV 55 travels to the storage shed 16. As shown in FIG.

First, the transport control device 58 acquires the recovery status of the feeders 24 in the storage 16 through communication with the mounting control device 38 (S100), and determines whether or not the recovery rate R is equal to or greater than a predetermined rate Rref (S110). ). The collection ratio R is the ratio of the number of collected feeders 24 to the number of feeders 24 scheduled to be collected in the collection destination storage unit (first storage unit 16a or second storage unit 16b), i. It shows the percentage of the collected number. For example, the predetermined ratio Rref in this embodiment is set in advance to a value such as 80% which is smaller than 100%. It should be noted that the predetermined ratio Rref may be set to 100%, and it may be determined in S110 whether or not the recovery is completed. Further, the result of the determination of S110 by the mounting control device 38 may be transmitted as the collection status of the feeder 24 in S100. When the transport control device 58 determines in S110 that the recovery rate R is equal to or greater than the predetermined rate Rref, it causes the AGV 55 to start traveling from the travel start position P1 (see FIG. 6) toward the destination storage shed 16 (S120). ).

Then, the transport control device 58 waits for the AGV 55 to arrive at the standby position P2 (see FIG. 6) based on the position information of the AGV 55 (S130). The standby position P2 is a position before the storage 16, which is the destination, and is defined as a position where the AGV 55 does not interfere with the work and movement of the loader 18 even if it waits. When the transport control device 58 determines that the AGV 55 has arrived at the standby position P2, it acquires the recovery status of the feeder 24 in the storage 16 and the evacuation status of the loader 18 through communication with the mounting control device 38 (S140). As in S100, the collection status indicates the ratio in the collection destination storage unit (first storage unit 16a or second storage unit 16b). Next, the transport control device 58 determines whether or not the collection of the feeder 24 is completed, that is, whether or not the collection ratio R has reached 100% (S150), and whether or not the loader 18 has evacuated from the storage box 16 (S160). judge. It should be noted that the mounting control device 38 promptly retracts the loader 18 from the front of the stocker 16 when the collection of the feeder 24 is completed. Alternatively, the mounting control device 38 may communicate with the transport control device 58 to interrupt the work of the loader 18 and retract the AGV 55 from the front of the storage 16 before the AGV 55 reaches the standby position P2.

When the transport control device 58 determines in S150 that the collection of the feeder 24 has not been completed or determines in S160 that the loader 18 has not retreated from the front of the storage 16, the transport control device 58 instructs the AGV 55 to wait at the standby position P2. A standby instruction is output (S170), and the processing of S140 to S160 is repeated. That is, the transport control device 58 waits for the loader 18 to retreat after the recovery of the feeder 24 in the stocker 16 is completed while causing the AGV 55 to wait at the standby position P2. Note that the transport control device 58 may first perform the processing of S170 to cause the AGV 55 to wait at the standby position P2, and then perform the processing of S140 to S160.

On the other hand, when the transport control device 58 determines that the collection of the feeder 24 to the storage shed 16 is completed and the loader 18 is retracted, the AGV 55 is moved in front of the destination storage unit (for example, the first storage unit 16a in FIG. 6). The feeder 24 is moved to perform the collection work (S180). Next, the transport control device 58 waits for the AGV 55 to complete the collection work of the feeder 24 (S190), and when it determines that the collection work has been completed, the AGV 55 starts traveling with the warehouse 60 as the destination ( S200), the feeder 24 is collected in the warehouse 60, and the AGV travel control is terminated. Note that the travel control of the AGV 55 up to the warehouse 60 does not constitute the gist of the present invention, so the description thereof will be omitted. When the AGV 55 starts running, the transport control device 58 transmits a work completion notice to the mounting control device 38 . The mounting control device 38 that has received the work completion notification permits the movement of the loader 18 to the storage 16 and the work.

Here, the correspondence between the components of the present embodiment and the components of the present disclosure will be clarified. The mounting line 10 of this embodiment corresponds to the mounting line, the AGV 55 corresponds to the automatic carrier, and the transfer control device 58 corresponds to the control device.

In the mounting system 1 described above, the travel of the AGV 55 to the storage shed 16 is controlled based on the collection status of the feeder 24 in the storage shed 16, so the collection of the feeder 24 is completed when the AGV 55 approaches the storage shed 16. It is possible to suppress the situation where it is not done. Therefore, the waiting time for the AGV 55 to wait for the collection of the feeder 24 can be reduced, and the collection of the feeder 24 by the AGV 55 can be efficiently performed.

In addition, since the AGV 55 is caused to start running before the feeders 24 to be collected are ready in the stocker 16 and wait until the feeders 24 are ready at the standby position P2, the AGV 55 can be quickly moved to the stocker 16 when the feeders 24 are ready. It can be moved to perform recovery work. Further, when the recovery rate R of the feeder 24 becomes equal to or greater than the predetermined rate Rref, the AGV 55 starts running, so the timing of starting running is appropriately determined by a simple process, and the waiting time at the waiting position P2 becomes longer. can be suppressed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the AGV 55 waiting at the waiting position P2 from hindering the traveling of the other AGVs 55 .

It goes without saying that the present disclosure is by no means limited to the above-described embodiments, and can be implemented in various forms as long as they fall within the technical scope of the present disclosure.

For example, in the above-described embodiment, the transport control device 58 determines whether or not the AGV 55 has arrived at the standby position P2 based on the positional information of the AGV 55 in S130, but the present invention is not limited to this. The transport control device 58 predicts the arrival timing at the standby position P2 from the travel start timing of the AGV 55, the speed of the AGV 55, the distance to the standby position P2, etc., and determines whether or not the arrival timing has come at S130. good.

Although the predetermined ratio Rref is set to a value smaller than 100% in the embodiment, it may be set to 100% as described above. That is, the AGV 55 may be controlled so as to start traveling from the travel start position P1 to the storage 16 when the feeders 24 to be collected are aligned in the storage 16 . In this way, when the AGV 55 approaches the storage 16, the waiting time for waiting for the feeder 24 to be collected into the storage 16 can be reliably reduced. Further, by waiting at the standby position P2, the AGV 55 can be prevented from interfering with other AGVs 55 .

In the embodiment, the predetermined ratio Rref is a predetermined value (fixed value), but it is not limited to this, and may be set by receiving an input of the predetermined ratio Rref from an operator or the like. Alternatively, the transport control device 58 may set the predetermined ratio Rref to decrease as the traveling distance of the AGV 55 from the travel start position P1 to the destination storage 16 or standby position P2 increases. In this way, the longer the traveling distance of the AGV 55 is, the earlier the AGV 55 is caused to start traveling. That is, since the travel start timing can be determined so as to reduce the time during which the AGV 55 waits at the standby position P2, the AGV 55 can be more reliably prevented from interfering with other AGVs 55, and the feeder 24 can be collected more efficiently. can do well.

In the embodiment, the case of collecting the feeders 24 from the storage 16 has been described as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the delivery of the feeders 24 to the storage 16 and the collection of the feeders 24 from the storage 16 are continuously performed. you can go FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the AGV travel control of the modification, and FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram showing how the AGV 55 travels to the storage 16 in the modification. In the modified example, the same reference numerals are given to the same processes as in the embodiment, and the description thereof is omitted.

In the modified example of FIG. 7, the transport control device 58 first determines whether or not the feeders 24 to be served are complete (S210). In S<b>210 , the transport control device 58 may determine whether or not all the feeders 24 to be served are mounted on the AGV 55 in the warehouse 60 or its vicinity. Further, the transport control device 58 may determine whether or not the AGV 55 on which all the feeders 24 to be served are ready for departure. When determining in S210 that the feeders 24 to be served are complete, the transport control device 58 acquires the collection status of the feeders 24 in the stocker 16 in S100, and determines whether or not the feeders 24 can be collected (S110b). ). For example, in S110b, it is determined whether or not the feeders 24 to be collected are present in either the first storage unit 16a or the second storage unit 16b, that is, whether the collection ratio R is 100%. When the transport control device 58 determines in S110b that collection is possible, in S120 the AGV 55 starts traveling to the storage shed 16. As shown in FIG.

In this modification, it is determined in S110b that the feeder 24 can be recovered, and then the AGV 55 starts running. Therefore, when the AGV 55 arrives at the standby position P2 in S130, the transport control device 58 does not need to acquire the recovery status of the feeder 24 again to determine recovery completion. and the processing of S150 is omitted. Also in the modified example, the processing of S140 and S150 may be performed as in the embodiment, assuming that the transport control device 58 determines in S110b that the recovery rate R is equal to or greater than the predetermined rate Rref. When the transport control device 58 determines that the loader 18 has been withdrawn from the storage 16 in S160, first, the AGV 55 is moved in front of one storage section (for example, the first storage section 16a in FIG. (S175). Next, when the transport control device 58 determines that the serving work is completed (S177), the AGV 55 is moved to the front of the other storage unit (for example, the second storage unit 16b in FIG. 8) to collect the feeder 24. get the work done.

Thus, in the modified example of FIG. 7, the AGV 55 is not started immediately after the feeders 24 to be served are ready, but the AGV 55 is started after confirming that the feeders 24 to be collected can be collected. Therefore, it is not necessary to wait for the feeder 24 to be ready for collection after the AGV 55 reaches the standby position P2. In addition, since the AGV 55 continuously performs the feeding and collection of the feeder 24, it is possible to reduce the movement loss and efficiently perform the feeding and collection as compared with the one that is performed separately.

Also, in the modification of FIG. 9, the feeding of the feeders 24 to the stocker 16 and the collection of the feeders 24 from the stocker 16 are continuously performed. In the modified example of FIG. 9, the transport control device 58 first acquires the empty status and collection status as the status of the feeders 24 in the stocker 16 (S100b), It is determined whether or not the feeder 24 can be collected (S110c). In S110c, it is determined whether or not one of the first storage unit 16a and the second storage unit 16b is vacant, and the other of the first storage unit 16a and the second storage unit 16b is filled with feeders 24 to be collected. It is determined whether or not there is, that is, whether or not the recovery rate R is 100%. When the transportation control device 58 determines in S110c that the food can be served and collected, it causes the AGV 55 to start traveling to the stocker 16 in S120. Since the same processing as in FIG. 7 is performed thereafter, the description is omitted.

Thus, in the modified example of FIG. 9, the AGV 55 is started after confirming that the feeder 24 to be collected can be collected and the feeder 24 to be served can be served. For this reason, it is not necessary to wait until the feeder 24 becomes ready for serving or ready for collection after the AGV 55 arrives at the standby position P2. Further, similarly to the modified example of FIG. 7, the feeding and collection of the feeders 24 can be performed continuously and efficiently. Note that in the modification of FIG. 9 as well, the determination of S210 may be performed before S100b, as in FIG.

Although the mounting system 1 (mounting line 10) includes the loader 18 in the embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this, and the loader 18 may not be included. For example, an operator may replace the feeder 24 between the stocker 16 and the mounting apparatus 20 and collect the removed feeder 24 in the stocker 16 . Even in this case, the AGV 55 may need to wait for the feeders 24 to be collected to be collected in the stocker 16. There is an effect by controlling.

In the embodiment, the members used for mounting-related processing such as the feeder 24 are conveyed by the AGV 55 to the dedicated storage 16 in the mounting line 10, but are not limited to this, and are conveyed to a predetermined location in the mounting line 10. Anything is fine. For example, what is transported to a storage provided in each device (printing device 12, printing device 14, mounting device 20, mounting inspection device 28, etc.) such as a storage provided below mounting device 20 in FIG. It's okay.

Here, the implementation system of the present disclosure may be configured as follows. For example, in the mounting system of the present disclosure, the control device causes the automatic guided vehicle to start traveling from a predetermined traveling start position to the predetermined location when the members to be collected are aligned at the predetermined location. may be controlled. In this way, when the automatic guided vehicle arrives at or approaches the predetermined location, it is possible to prevent the automatic guided vehicle from waiting for collection of the members to the predetermined location, thereby reliably reducing the waiting time. Further, by having the automatic guided vehicle wait near the predetermined location, it is possible to prevent interference between the waiting automatic guided vehicle and other devices.

In the mounting system of the present disclosure, the control device starts traveling from a predetermined travel start position to the predetermined location before the members to be collected are aligned at the predetermined location, and moves from the travel start position to the predetermined location. The automatic guided vehicle may be controlled so as to wait until the members to be collected are ready at a predetermined standby position close to . In this way, when the members to be collected are arranged at the predetermined location, the automatic guided vehicle can be quickly moved to the predetermined location, so that the members can be collected more efficiently.

In the mounting system of the present disclosure, the control device starts traveling from the traveling start position when a predetermined proportion or more of the members to be collected are arranged before the members to be collected are arranged. The automatic guided vehicle may be controlled. This makes it possible to appropriately determine the timing at which the automatic guided vehicle starts traveling toward the predetermined location by a simple process, so it is possible to suppress the waiting time at the waiting position from becoming longer.

In the mounting system of the present disclosure, the predetermined location is provided with a collection location where the member is collected and a serving location where the member is served, and the control device is placed at the serving location.
