Tape feeding apparatus
A tape feeding apparatus includes a supply unit that supplies a release paper and a tape attached to the release paper, a blade unit that separates the release paper and the tape, having a triangular pillar shape extending in a first direction, and including a first surface, a second surface directed perpendicular to the first surface and contacting the release paper, and a third surface in contact with the first surface and the second surface to form a sloped surface, and an lighting unit attached to the first surface.
1 . A tape feeding apparatus comprising:
a supply unit that supplies a release paper and a tape attached to the release paper;
a blade unit that separates the release paper and the tape, having a triangular pillar shape extending in a first direction, and including a first surface, a second surface perpendicular to the first surface and contacting the release paper, and a third surface in contact with the first surface and the second surface to form a sloped surface; and
a lighting unit attached to the first surface.
2 . The tape feeding apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a reflective plate attached to the third surface.
3 . The tape feeding apparatus of claim 1 , wherein an angle formed by the second surface and the third surface is greater than or equal to about 10 degrees and less than or equal to about 20 degrees.
4 . The tape feeding apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the blade unit is movable in a second direction, wherein the second direction crosses the first direction.
5 . The tape feeding apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the lighting unit defines a plurality of holes facing in the first direction.
6 . The tape feeding apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising a collection unit that collects the release paper after the release paper is separated from the tape and a camera unit that detects a position of the tape.
7 . The tape feeding apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a length of the second surface in a second direction crossing the first direction is longer than a length of the first surface in a third direction which is perpendicular to a plane formed by the first direction and the second direction.
8 . A tape feeding apparatus comprising:
a supply unit that supplies a release paper and a tape attached to the release paper;
