Heating apparatus and implemented body manufacturing method
To improve the tact time of a heating apparatus, provided is a heating apparatus comprising a first pressing member that heats a heating target; a second pressing member that includes an elastic body, and sandwiches the heating target between the first pressing member and the elastic body; and a floating jig that thermally separates the first pressing member from the heating target, holds the heating target between the first pressing member and the second pressing member, and when one of the first pressing member and the second pressing member presses the heating target toward the other of the first pressing member and the second pressing member, thermally connects the heating target and the first pressing member.
1. A heating apparatus comprising:
a first pressing member that heats a heating target;
a second pressing member that includes an elastic body and a first holding member that holds the elastic body; and
a floating jig that includes a second holding member that holds the heating target between the first pressing member and the second pressing member, wherein
one of the first pressing member and the second pressing member is operable to press the heating target in a first direction toward the other of the first pressing member and the second pressing member so as to sandwich the heating target between the first pressing member and the elastic body,
the floating jig is i) operable to thermally separate the first pressing member from the heating target and ii) operable to thermally connect the heating target and the first pressing member when the one of the first pressing member and the second pressing member presses the heating target in the first direction, and,
when the one of the first pressing member and the second pressing member presses the heating target in the first direction, the first holding member covers the second holding member such that the second holding member intervenes between the first pressing member and the first holding member in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, thereby restricting positional skew of the floating jig in the second direction.
2. The heating apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a heating section that heats the first pressing member and keeps the first pressing member at a predetermined temperature.
3. The heating apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
when the pressing force by the first pressing member or the second pressing member is removed, the floating jig thermally separates the first pressing member from the heating target.
4. The heating apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein
the floating jig mechanically separates the heating target from the first pressing member, according to one of the first pressing member and the second pressing member separating from the other.
5. The heating apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the elastic body of the second pressing member presses an electronic component of the heating target, which is formed by layering a substrate, an adhesive layer, and the electronic component in the stated order, against the substrate.
6. The heating apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein
the elastic body of the second pressing member presses a plurality of the electronic components of the heating target, which is formed by layering the substrate, the adhesive layer, and the electronic components in the stated order, against the substrate.
7. The heating apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a plurality of carriers on which the heating target is mounted; and
a transporting section that sequentially selects the carriers and causes the floating jig to hold the selected carriers.
8. The heating apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein
the second holding member holds one of the selected carriers such that a portion of the one of the selected carriers is exposed to a heated surface of the first pressing member, and
the size of the portion is substantially the same as or greater than the size of the heated surface of the heating stage.
9. The heating apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a drive section that moves the second pressing member toward and away from the first pressing member to apply and remove a pressing force on the heating target via the second pressing member.
10. The heating apparatus according to claim 9 , the drive section includes an air cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, or servo motor.
11. The heating apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a drive section that moves the first pressing member toward and away from the second pressing member to apply and remove a pressing force on the heating target via the first pressing member.
12. The heating apparatus according to claim 11 , the drive section includes an air cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, or servo motor.
13. The heating apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the second pressing member sandwiches the heating target between the first pressing member and the elastic body such that the heating target is buried in the elastic body.
