Tape feeder and mount device
A tape feeder that feeds a carrier tape constituted of a bottom tape accommodating multiple components and a cover tape adhered to the bottom tape to supply the components includes a peeling section configured to peel the cover tape from the bottom tape at a position in front of a supply position of the component, a tension applying section configured to pull the cover tape into a predetermined location by driving a motor to collect the cover tape peeled from the bottom tape, and a holding section configured to hold the cover tape between the peeling section and the tension applying section when a power supply of the tape feeder is turned off and to release the holding of the cover tape when the power supply of the tape feeder is turned on.
1. A tape feeder that feeds a carrier tape consisted of a bottom tape accommodating multiple components and a cover tape adhered to the bottom tape to supply the components, the tape feeder comprising:
a peeling section configured to peel the cover tape from the bottom tape at a position in front of a component supply position;
a tension applying section configured to apply tension to the cover tape by driving a motor in order to collect the cover tape peeled from the bottom tape; and
a holding section configured to hold the cover tape between the peeling section and the tension applying section when a power supply of the tape feeder is turned off and to release the holding of the cover tape when the power supply of the tape feeder is turned on.
2. The tape feeder according to claim 1 , further comprising:
an adjustment section configured to adjust the tension of the cover tape by pressing a pressing member, the adjustment section having the pressing member and a spring that biases the pressing member in a direction of pressing the pressing member against the cover tape between the peeling section and the tension applying section,
wherein the holding section is a fixing member fixed to a main body of the tape feeder such that the cover tape is held between the fixing member and the pressing member pressed against the cover tape.
3. The tape feeder according to claim 1 ,
wherein the tension applying section is configured to pull the cover tape into a predetermined collecting location by a pair of rotating members rotated by driving the motor while pinching the cover tape, in a state of pinching the cover tape, and
the carrier tape is fed in a direction opposite to a direction in which the carrier tape is fed to the supply position of the component in some cases.
4. A mount device wherein
the tape feeder according to claim 1 is detachably attached to the mount device, and
the mount device performs a mounting process in which the component supplied from the tape feeder to the supply position is picked up by a pickup member and mounted on a board.
