Abstract

An additional type reel holding device configured to be attached to a component supply device provided on a component mounter, the component supply device including multiple feeder devices and a standard reel holding section configured to hold multiple tape reels in a rotatable and exchangeable manner. The additional type reel holding device is attached as an addition to the standard reel holding section, holds additional tape reels different to the tape reels held by the standard reel holding section in a rotatable and exchangeable manner, and supplies the carrier tapes wound on the additional tape reels to the feeder devices. Thus, it is possible to increase the overall quantity of carrier tapes supplied to feeder devices from the standard reel holding section and the additional type reel holding device.

Claims (15)

1. A component supply device configured to supply components to a component mounter, comprising:

a standard reel holding section configured to hold standard tape reels around which are respectively wound standard carrier tape in a rotatable and exchangeable manner;

an additional reel holding device attached the standard reel holding section that holds additional tape reels different from the standard tape reels, an additional carrier tape being respectively wound around the additional tape reels in a rotatable and exchangeable manner; and feeder devices configured to sequentially supply the components by feeding the standard carrier tape and the additional carrier tape in which the components are held.

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

a recessed attachment section is provided on the standard reel holding section and configured with a downwards opening that engages from above with a rod-shaped attachment seat that extends in an arrangement direction of the feeder devices.

3. The component supply device according to claim 2 , wherein

an attachment position of the additional reel holding device is changeable in the arrangement direction.

4. The component supply device according to claim 1 , wherein

the additional reel holding device is configured to hold a quantity of the additional tape reels smaller than a quantity of the feeder devices, and multiple of the additional reel holding device are arrangeable in an arrangement direction.

5. The component supply device according to claim 1 , wherein

the additional reel holding device is configured to be attached to a side of the standard reel holding section away from the feeder devices.

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

the component supply device supplies components to the component mounter from one of the additional tape reels and one of the standard tape reels at a same time.

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

the component supply device supplies components to the component mounter from one of the additional tape reels which moved to a free reel holding position when one of the standard tape reels is removed from the standard reel holding section.
