Abstract

In component mounting for mounting a pin connecting component having a pin on a board having a through-hole electrode, a solder paste is printed on the through-hole electrode through a screen mask having an opening corresponding to the through-hole electrode, a flux is transferred onto the pin by holding the pin connecting component and immersing the pin into a flux tank filled with the flux, and the pin onto which the flux is transferred is inserted into the through-hole electrode on which the solder paste is printed to mount the pin connecting component on the board.

Claims (21)

1. A component mounting method for mounting a component having a pin terminal on a board having a through-hole electrode, the method comprising:

printing a solder paste on the through-hole electrode through a mask having an opening corresponding to the through-hole electrode;

transferring a flux onto the pin terminal by holding the component and immersing the pin terminal into a flux tank filled with the flux;

mounting the component on the board by inserting the pin terminal onto which the flux is transferred into the through-hole electrode on which the solder paste is printed such that the solder paste is divided into a first portion of the solder paste on a tip end of the pin terminal and a second portion of the solder paste in an inner hole of the through-hole electrode; and

heating the board such that the flux on the pin terminal facilitates the integration of the first portion of the solder paste with the second portion of the solder paste.

2. The component mounting method of claim 1 , wherein the flux tank is filled with the flux impregnated in a sponge.

3. The component mounting method of claim 1 , wherein the flux tank is filled with a liquid of the flux, and wherein, the method further comprises, after the immersing of the pin terminal, pulling up the pin terminal from the flux tank and moving the component up and down.

4. A component mounting system for mounting a component having a pin terminal on a board having a through-hole electrode, the system comprising:

a printer that prints a solder paste on the through-hole electrode through a mask having an opening corresponding to the through-hole electrode;

a component mounter that has a mounting head which holds the component and mounts the component on the board and a flux tank which is filled with a flux,

wherein the mounting head transfers the flux onto the pin terminal by immersing the pin terminal in the flux tank, and inserts the pin terminal onto which the flux is transferred into the through-hole electrode on which the solder paste is printed such that the solder paste is divided into a first portion of the solder paste on a tip end of the pin terminal and a second portion of the solder paste in an inner hole of the through-hole electrode; and

a reflow device that heats the board such that the flux on the pin terminal facilitates the integration of the first portion of the solder paste with the second portion of the solder paste.

5. The component mounting system of claim 4 , wherein the flux tank is filled with the flux impregnated in a sponge.

6. The component mounting system of claim 4 , wherein the flux tank is filled with a liquid of the flux, and wherein, after immersing the pin terminal in the flux tank, the mounting head pulls up the pin terminal from the flux tank, and the component is moved up and down.

7. A manufacturing method of a component mounting board for mounting a component having a pin terminal on a board having a through-hole electrode, the method comprising:

printing a solder paste on the through-hole electrode through a mask having an opening corresponding to the through-hole electrode;

transferring a flux onto the pin terminal by holding the component and immersing the pin terminal into a flux tank filled with the flux;

mounting the component on the board by inserting the pin terminal onto which the flux is transferred into the through-hole electrode on which the solder paste is printed such that the solder paste is divided into a first portion of the solder paste on the pin terminal and a second portion of the solder paste in the through-hole electrode; and

heating the board such that the flux on the pin terminal facilitates the integration of the first portion of the solder paste with the second portion of the solder paste.

8. The manufacturing method of a component mounting board of claim 7 , wherein the flux tank is filled with the flux impregnated in a sponge.

9. The manufacturing method of a component mounting board of claim 7 , wherein the flux tank is filled with a liquid of the flux, and wherein, the method further comprises, after the immersing, pulling up the pin terminal from the flux tank and moving the component up and down.
