Abstract

A component mounting machine moves a mounting head from a supply position P 1 to each of mounting positions P 3 and P 4 of a circuit board CB via an imaging position P 2 . Further, the component mounting machine performs control such that the mounting head moves in a direction of movement at the time of imaging that is either of an X-axis direction or a Y-axis direction when passing through the imaging position P 2 . The component mounting machine determines the direction of movement at the time of imaging, according to a first X-axis distance Lx and a first Y-axis distance Ly from the imaging position P 2 to each of the mounting positions P 3 and P 4.

Claims (26)

1. A component mounting device comprising:

component supply devices placed side by side in a first axis direction, the component supply devices supplying a component to be mounted on an object to a supply position;

a movable section to obtain the component from the supply position and to mount the component at a mounting position of the object;

a driving mechanism to move the movable section in the first axis direction and a second axis direction orthogonal to the first axis direction, the driving mechanism including an X-Y moving device;

an imaging device to capture an image of the component held by the movable section, at an imaging position; and

a control section operatively connected to the driving mechanism, the movable section, and the imaging device, the control section configured to:

control the driving mechanism to move the movable section from the supply position to the mounting position via the imaging position and in a direction of movement at the time of imaging with either of the first axis direction or the second axis direction set to be the direction of movement at the time of imaging, when the movable section passes through the imaging position,

determine the direction of movement at the time of imaging, according to a first distance along the first axis direction and a second distance along the second axis direction from the imaging position to the mounting position.

2. The component mounting device according to claim 1 , wherein

the driving mechanism has an acceleration or a maximum speed by which the movable section is moved in the first axis direction and acceleration or a maximum speed by which the movable section is moved in the second axis direction are different from each other, and

the control section is configured to determine the direction of movement at the time of imaging, based on a relationship between an area set in the object according to the first distance and the second distance and the mounting position, and the area is changed based on a difference between the maximum speed with respect to the first axis direction of the movable section and the maximum speed with respect to the second axis direction, and a difference between the acceleration with respect to the first axis direction of the movable section and the acceleration with respect to the second axis direction.

3. The component mounting device according to claim 1 , wherein

the control section is configured to determine the direction of movement at the time of imaging, according to a third distance along the first axis direction from the supply position to the imaging position.

4. The component mounting device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a conveyance lane to convey the object in the first axis direction, wherein

the control section is configured to determine the supply position and a stop position on the conveyance lane where the imaging position is disposed between the supply position and the mounting position of the object stopped at the stop position, in the first axis direction, and a direction toward the mounting position from the supply position becomes the direction of movement at the time of imaging.

5. The component mounting device according to claim 4 , wherein

a plurality of the conveyance lanes are provided, and

the control section is configured to determine a supply position of a component to be mounted on the object which is conveyed by the conveyance lane in which a distance along the second axis direction from the supply device is longer, among the plurality of conveyance lanes, to be a position at which a third distance along the first axis direction from the supply position to the imaging position is shorter.

6. The component mounting device according to claim 1 , wherein

the movable section is configured to hold a plurality of the components, and

the control section is configured to control the movable section in a case where the direction of movement at the time of imaging is determined to be the first axis direction, the movable section obtains a component at the supply position which becomes a position at which a third distance along the first axis direction from the supply position to the imaging position is longer, later, and

in a case where the direction of movement at the time of imaging is determined to be the second axis direction, the movable section obtains a component at the supply position which becomes a position at which the third distance is shorter, later.

7. The component mounting device according to claim 1 , wherein

a plurality of the movable sections are provided, and

the control section is configured to control the plurality of movable sections to arrange orders of sequences of moving the movable section from the supply position to the mounting position via the imaging position are the same and which pass through an imaging position of the same imaging device in the same direction of movement at the time of imaging, pass through the imaging position with the movable sections interlocked with one another.
