Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、可動接点板やクリック板等の可動板を、粘着シートや基板等の被取付部材に取り付ける際に用いて好適な可動板の取付装置に関するものである。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
従来スイッチ機構の中には例えば図１０に示すように、複数のスイッチ接点２０１を形成した基板２００上に、弾性金属板をドーム形状に形成してなる可動接点板２０３を載置してその上に合成樹脂フイルムの一方の面に粘着層を設けてなる粘着シート２１０を貼り付けることで可動接点板２０３を基板２００上に固定するスイッチ機構がある。
【０００３】
ここでこの種のスイッチ機構の組み立ては通常、図１１に示すように粘着シート２１０の粘着面側に可動接点板２０３を底面側を上にして貼り付けた可動接点板付粘着シートを作成し、これを裏返して基板２００のスイッチ接点２０１の形成面に貼り付けることによって行なわれる。
【０００４】
図１２は可動接点板２０３を粘着シート２１０へ貼り付ける従来の自動取付装置の概略構成図である。同図に示す可動接点板の自動取付装置は、複数のマガジン３０１を固定してなるマガジン保持具３０３と、吸着移動ヘッド３１１と、粘着シート２１０を載置する載置手段３３１とを具備して構成されている。マガジン３０１はパイプ状であって内部に多数枚の可動接点板２０３をその底面が上向きとなるように重ねて収納し、その底から押上手段３２１で押し上げる構造に構成されている。各マガジン３０１は縦横方向であって、粘着シート２１０に可動接点板２０３を取り付ける全ての位置に対応する位置に位置するようにマトリクス状に設置されている。一方吸着移動ヘッド３１１は、前記各マガジン３０１に対向する位置にそれぞれ真空吸着部３１３を設け、図示しないロボットアーム（マニピュレータ）に取り付けることでマガジン保持具３０３と載置手段３３１間で矢印に示すように移動可能に構成されている。
【０００５】
そして吸着移動ヘッド３１１をマガジン保持具３０３上に下降して各真空吸着部３１３先端でそれぞれ対向する各マガジン３０１内の最上部の可動接点板２０３を吸着し、次に吸着移動ヘッド３１１を上昇して載置手段３３１上の粘着シート２１０上に移動して各可動接点板２０３を粘着シート２１０に当接して接着し、各真空吸着部３１３による吸引を解除して吸着移動ヘッド３１１を元の位置に移動する。
【０００６】
しかしながら上記従来の可動接点板の自動取付装置においては以下のような問題点があった。
▲１▼吸着移動ヘッド３１１の真空吸着部３１３は、マガジン３０１内の最も上段の可動接点板２０３を吸着するが、可動接点板２０３を吸着して吸着移動ヘッド３１１を上昇させた際に吸着した可動接点板２０３の下側の可動接点板２０３も二枚重ねのまま持ち上げられて移動してしまい、二枚重ねのまま粘着シート２１０に貼り付けられる恐れがあった。
【０００７】
▲２▼各マガジン３０１内で可動接点板２０３が上下方向にスムーズに移動するためには多少の遊びが必要なのでマガジン３０１の内径寸法の方が可動接点板２０３の外径寸法よりも少し大きくする必要があるが、このため各マガジン３０１内で可動接点板２０３の位置が少しずれてしまい、このため粘着シート２１０への貼り付け位置にずれが生じる恐れがあった。特にこの従来例のように多数枚の可動接点板２０３を同時に粘着シート２１０に貼り付けると各可動接点板２０３間の相対的なズレ寸法は大きくなり、各可動接点板２０３の貼り付け位置の誤差が大きくなってしまう。
【０００８】
▲３▼粘着シート２１０の形状や粘着シート２１０に貼り付ける可動接点板２０３の数や位置が変更された場合は、一々それに合せてマガジン３０１の配列と真空吸着部３１３の配列とを変更する必要があり、段取り性が良くない。
【０００９】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は上述の点に鑑みてなされたものでありその目的は、可動接点板やクリック板等の可動板を効率良く及び精度良く且つ正確に粘着シート等の被取付部材に取り付けることができる可動板の取付装置を提供することにある。
【００１０】

【００１４】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面を参照して詳細に説明する。
図１は本発明の一実施形態にかかる可動板の自動取付装置の全体概略構成図であり、同図（ａ）は正面図、同図（ｂ）は右側面図である。同図に示すようにこの可動板の自動取付装置は、下記する可動接点板１００を連続に取り付けてなる帯状板部材１０から前記可動接点板１００を切り離す切断手段２０と、切断した可動板１００を移動する移動手段５０と、移動した可動接点板１００を取り付ける粘着シート（被取付部材、同図には図示せず）１５０を載置する載置手段１１０とを具備して構成されている。以下各構成部分について説明する。
【００１５】
ここで図２は帯状板部材１０を示す図であり、同図（ａ）は一部拡大平面図、同図（ｂ）は側面図、同図（ｃ）は同図（ａ）のＡ−Ａ断面図である。同図に示すように帯状板部材１０は、帯状の弾性金属板の内部に、二本の連結部１１，１１によって接続された可動接点板１００を一枚ずつ一列に連続して配列して構成されている。各可動接点板１００は、同図（ｃ）に示すように一方の面側に向かってドーム形状に湾曲している。そして帯状板部材１０は、図１（ｂ）と図２（ｂ）に示すように、リール１３にフープ状に巻き回されており、図１（ｂ）に示すようにガイド部１５を介して切断手段２０に供給されている。なおリール１３に巻き回されている帯状板部材１０の間には、層間紙１２が挟まれているが、この層間紙１２は層間紙巻取リール１４によって巻き取られる。この層間紙１２は帯状板部材１０同士が直接接触すると可動接点板１００が傷付き、接触不良の原因となるため設けられている。
【００１６】
次に図３は切断手段２０と移動手段５０の部分を拡大して示す概略構成図である。また図４は切断手段２０の部分をさらに拡大して示す概略構成図である。両図及び図１に示すように切断手段２０は、基台１から上方向に突出するように固定されたパンチ２１と、略平板状であってパンチ２１の上に所定寸法の隙間ｓを介して設置され内部にパンチ用穴２５を設けたパンチ受け部材２３とを具備して構成されている。パンチ受け部材２３は図示しない駆動手段によって上下方向（矢印ａ方向）に駆動可能に構成されており、図示の位置から隙間ｓがなくなる位置まで下降する。
【００１７】
パンチ受け部材２３の下面のパンチ用穴２５の周囲には前記帯状板部材１０を挿入してガイドするガイド溝２７が設けられている。即ち前記図１に示すリール１３からガイド部１５を介して引き出された帯状板部材１０は、パンチ２１とパンチ受け部材２３の間のガイド溝２７の部分に導入される。
【００１８】
次に移動手段５０は図３に示すように、棒状の真空吸着ヘッド５１と、真空吸着ヘッド５１を上下方向（矢印ｂ方向）へスライド移動自在に保持する保持部材５３と、保持部材５３を水平方向（矢印ｃ方向）へスライド移動自在にガイドするガイド部材５５と、棒部材５７の一端を固定側の軸５９に回動自在に軸支するとともに棒部材５７の他端に回動自在に取り付けた棒部材５８の先端を保持部材５３に回動自在に取り付けさらに棒部材５７の中間部分に下記する回転部材７５の表面に設けたカム溝７９に係合するコロ６１を設けてなる保持部材駆動機構６０と、略Ｌ字状に屈曲する棒部材６３の屈曲部分を軸５９に回動自在に軸支するとともに一端を下記する回転部材７５の表面に設けたカム溝８１に係合するコロ６５を設け且つ他端を棒部材６７の一端に回動自在に取り付けさらに棒部材６７を真空吸着ヘッド５１の根元に設けた支持部６９に回動自在に取り付けてなる真空吸着ヘッド駆動機構７１と、モータＭのプーリー７３と回転部材７５の間にベルト７７を巻き掛けることで回転部材７５を回転しその表面に前記コロ６１とコロ６５を係合して棒部材５７と棒部材６３を揺動せしめるカム溝７９，８１を設けてなる駆動源８３とを具備して構成されている。なお真空吸着ヘッド５１に真空を供給する真空供給機構は図示を省略している。また図４に示すように真空吸着ヘッド５１の先端にはゴムパッド５１ａが取り付けられている。
【００１９】
そして回転部材７５を回転すると各棒部材５７，６３が揺動し、両者の動きを合成することで真空吸着ヘッド５１を矢印ｄに示すように、パンチ受け部材２３のパンチ用穴２５内に下降してその下に配置した帯状板部材１０に設けた可動接点板１００を吸着する位置と、その位置から上昇してパンチ受け部材２３の外方に移動して下記する載置手段１１０のＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５上まで下降する動きを行なう。
【００２０】
次に載置手段１１０は図１に示すように、台１１１上にＸ−Ｙ駆動機構１１３と回転機構１２１とＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５とを取り付けて構成されている。ここでＸ−Ｙ駆動機構１１３は台１１１上に配置され、後述する直動駆動機構１１７の下に取り付いて直動駆動機構１１７全体を直線方向（例えばＸ軸方向）に駆動する直動駆動機構１１５と、後述する回転機構１２１の下に取り付いて回転機構１２１全体を前記Ｘ軸方向に直交する直線方向（例えばＹ軸方向）に駆動する直動駆動機構１１７とによって構成され、直動駆動機構１１５，１１７をＮＣ制御（数値制御）によって駆動制御することで回転機構１２１とＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５とをテーブル面方向（直交するＸ−Ｙ軸によって形成されるＸ−Ｙ平面方向）に移動自在とするものである。なお１１６は直線方向（Ｘ軸方向）に移動する直動駆動機構１１７を支えるコロである。
【００２１】
回転機構１２１はモータで構成され、Ｘ−Ｙテーブル１２５を回転機構１２１の駆動軸１２２で取り付けることでＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５をテーブル面（直交するＸ−Ｙ軸によって形成されるＸ−Ｙ平面）内で回転可能にするように構成されている。
【００２２】
次に図５はＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５を示す図であり、同図（ａ）は平面図、同図（ｂ）は断面図である。同図に示すようにＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５は矩形状であり、その上面両側に２枚の粘着シート１５０を載置する被取付部材載置箇所Ａ１，Ａ２を設け、その下面に設置した回転機構１２１によって回動自在に構成されている。Ｘ−Ｙテーブル１２５の内部は空洞となっており、被取付部材載置箇所Ａ１，Ａ２の部分にはそれぞれ複数個の小穴１２７が設けられ、またその下側にはＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５の内部の空気を排気する真空排気用パイプ１２９が接続されている。被取付部材載置箇所Ａ１，Ａ２の外周４ヶ所からはピン１３１が突出している。なお一方の被取付部材載置箇所Ａ１は粘着シート１５０に可動接点板１００を貼り付ける可動接点板取付箇所（可動板取付箇所）であり、他方の被取付部材載置箇所Ａ２は粘着シート１５０の着脱を行なう被取付部材着脱箇所である。
【００２３】
なお図１に示す１７０は、可動接点板１００を切り取った後の帯状板部材１０を適当な長さ毎に切断するスクラップ切断装置である。
【００２４】
次にこの可動板の取付装置の動作を説明する。まず合成樹脂フイルムの一方の面に粘着層を設けてなる粘着シート１５０をその粘着面を上向きにして図５（ａ）に示す被取付部材着脱箇所である被取付部材載置箇所Ａ２に載置する。そのとき粘着シート１５０の四隅に設けた係止穴１５１にピン１３１を挿入して位置決めする。またこのときＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５の内部は排気されており、小穴１２７によって粘着シート１５０は被取付部材載置箇所Ａ２に吸着されている。
【００２５】
そして回転機構１２１を駆動してＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５を１８０度回転して停止すれば、この粘着シート１５０は被取付部材着脱箇所から可動接点板取付箇所に移動する。なおこのとき反対側の被取付部材載置箇所Ａ２に移動してきた可動接点板１００取付済みの粘着シート１５０がある場合はこれを取り外して新たな粘着シート１５０を載置しておく。
【００２６】
一方このとき図１に示すようにリール１３から引き出された帯状板部材１０は図３に示すパンチ２１とパンチ受け部材２３の間に導入されており、回転部材７５を回転駆動することで真空吸着ヘッド５１を図３に示す位置から下降してその先端を帯状板部材１０の可動接点板１００に接近してこれを真空吸着する。可動接点板１００はドーム形状の裏面側（凹状となっている側）を上向きとしているので、この面が吸着される。
【００２７】
次にこの状態のままパンチ受け部材２３を図示しない駆動手段によって矢印ａの下側方向に下降し、これによって可動接点板１００の部分をパンチ２１上に載せた状態でその周囲のパンチ用穴２５が下降して図２（ａ）に示す一対の連結部１１，１１が切断される。
【００２８】
切断された可動接点板１００は真空吸着ヘッド５１によってパンチ用穴２５を通して引き上げられ、Ｘ−Ｙテーブル１２５上に位置決めされて載置されている粘着シート１５０上まで移動し押し付けられて貼り付けられる。そして本発明においては、可動接点板１００が真空吸着ヘッド５１によって移動される位置を常に同一の定点とし、一方可動接点板１００を取り付ける粘着シート１５０を載せたＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５をＸ−Ｙ駆動機構１１３を駆動することで移動し、これによって粘着シート１５０上の所望の位置に可動接点板１００を取り付けるようにしている。このようにＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５をＸ−Ｙ面方向に移動自在としたのは、真空吸着ヘッド５１を三次元方向に移動させることとすると、精度良く可動接点板１００を貼り付けていくのに時間がかかり、また高価なロボットアームを使用しなければならなくなるからである。つまり真空吸着ヘッド５１による移動位置を一定としてＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５によって粘着シート１５０への貼り付け位置を調整した方が、精度良く迅速に可動接点板１００を貼り付けていくことができる。
【００２９】
そして真空吸着ヘッド５１が元の図３に示す位置に戻る前に、帯状板部材１０は切断した可動接点板１００の次の可動接点板１００までのピッチ分だけ移動しており、パンチ２１の真上には次の可動接点板１００が位置している。そして同様にして上記動作を繰り返していけば、粘着シート１５０上の所定の位置全てに可動接点板１００が貼り付けられてゆき、図１１に示すような可動接点板付粘着シートが出来上がる。
【００３０】
次に全ての可動接点板１００の貼り付けを終了すると、回転機構１２１によって図５に示すようにＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５を１８０度回転し、可動接点板１００を貼り付けていない新たな粘着シート１５０が可動接点板取付箇所に移動し、一方前記可動接点板１００の貼り付けが終了した粘着シート１５０が被取付部材着脱箇所に移動して新たな粘着シート１５０に取り替えられる。上記動作を繰り返し行うことで、粘着シート１５０への可動接点板１００の貼り付けを連続に行なっていくことができる。
【００３１】
ところで上記実施形態では、粘着シート１５０の取り替えを人手によって行なっているが、これを自動化しても良い。図６は粘着シート１５０の人手による取り替えの不要な載置手段１１０−２の部分を示す図であり、同図（ａ）は要部平面図（但しリール１６１，１６３やコロ１５７，１５９の記載は省略）、同図（ｂ）は要部正面図（図１（ｂ）と同じ方向から見た図）である。同図において前記実施形態と同一又は相当部分には同一符号を付してその詳細な説明は省略する。
【００３２】
この載置手段１１０−２は、Ｘ−Ｙ駆動機構１１３の上に回転機構を設けずに直接Ｘ−Ｙテーブル１２５を取り付けると共に、Ｘ−Ｙテーブル１２５上に帯状粘着シート１５０−２を巻き回しておく第一リール１５３と、可動接点板１００を貼り付けた後の帯状粘着シート１５０−２を巻き取る第二リール１５５とを設置し、これら第一，第二リール１５３，１５５をＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５の移動と共に移動させるようにしている。なお１５７，１５９は帯状粘着シート１５０−２をＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５上に接近して配置させるための位置決め用コロ、１６１は引き出した帯状粘着シート１５０−２の粘着面から剥がした剥離紙１６５を巻き取るためのリール、１６３は可動接点板１００を貼り付けた後の粘着面に貼り付ける剥離紙１６７を供給するリールである。なお第一，第二リール１５３，１５５の回転駆動機構は図示を省略している。
【００３３】
そして第一，第二リール１５３，１５５を回転駆動することで可動接点板取付部Ｅに剥離紙を剥がした帯状粘着シート１５０−２の所定部分を粘着面を上にして位置せしめて停止し、Ｘ−Ｙテーブル１２５を第一，第二リール１５３，１５５等と一体にＸ−Ｙ面方向に移動しながら真空吸着ヘッド５１によって可動接点板１００を定点に供給し、これによって可動接点板１００を帯状粘着シート１５０−２の所望の場所上に貼り付けていく。そしてこの貼り付け作業が終了すると、一枚の粘着シート１５０分だけ帯状粘着シート１５０−２を移動して再び上記作業を繰り返してゆく。このように構成すれば、人手を介さないで、自動的に帯状粘着シート１５０−２に順次可動接点板１００を貼り付けていくことができる。以上の装置により図１１に示すような可動接点板付粘着シートが出来上がるのである。
【００３４】
上記実施形態では粘着シート１５０に多数の可動接点板１００を貼り付けるように構成しているが、図７に示すように一枚の可動接点板１００に細い帯状の粘着テープＰを貼り付けたものを１つずつ基板２００のスイッチ接点２０１上に貼り付ける構造のものもある。このようなスイッチ機構の場合は、本発明を用いて可動接点板１００を基板２００に直接貼り付けていくように構成することもできる。
【００３５】
ここで図８は可動接点板１００に合成樹脂フイルムの一方の面に接着層を設けた粘着テープＰを貼り付けていく方法を示す図である。なおこの機構は、図１に示すリール１３と切断手段２０の間の所定位置に設けられる。まず図８（ａ），（ｂ）に示すように、リール１３から引き出された帯状板部材１０の上面（凸側の面）に、ドラムＤから引き出された帯状の粘着テープＰを接着面側で貼り付けていく。次に図８（ｃ）に示すように、粘着テープＰの帯状板部材１０の上に乗っている部分を粘着テープＰだけ図示しないカッターで切断していく（カット線Ｐ１）。そして前記図３に示す切断手段２０の部分において可動接点板１００の凸となっている側を上にして真空吸着ヘッド５１に吸着しながら切断手段２０によって一対の連結部１１，１１を切断して引き上げ（図８（ｄ）参照）、１つずつ前記図７に示す基板２００のスイッチ接点２０１上まで移動し貼り付けていく。この実施形態の場合、前記図５に示すＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５上には粘着シート１５０の代りに基板２００を載置している。
【００３６】
図９は前記構造のスイッチ機構において、基板２００の取り替えを自動化した載置手段１１０−３の周辺部分を示す要部平面図である。この載置手段１１０−３は、図示しないＸ−Ｙ駆動機構１１３の上に回転機構を設けずにＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５を設置して構成されており、図に実線で示す可動板貼付位置ｇ１と、基板取出位置ｇ２と、基板載置位置ｇ３との間で移動可能となるように構成されている。また基板載置位置ｇ３にはコンベアｋ１が接続され、基板取出位置ｇ２にもコンベアｋ２が接続され、さらにコンベアｋ１とコンベアｋ２のそれぞれの端部には基板ストッカーｋ３，ｋ４が設置されている。
【００３７】
そして基板ストッカーｋ３内の基板２００をコンベアｋ１を介して基板載置位置ｇ３上に位置しているＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５上に載置し、このＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５を可動板貼付位置ｇ１に移動して真空吸着ヘッド５１に吸着した前記粘着テープＰを貼り付けた可動接点板１００をＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５を移動しながら貼り付け、前記貼り付けが完了した後にＸ−Ｙテーブル１２５を基板取出位置ｇ２に移動してベルトコンベアｋ２を介して基板ストッカーｋ４内に収納していく。
【００３８】
以上本発明の実施形態を説明したが、本発明は上記実施形態に限定されるものではなく、特許請求の範囲、及び明細書と図面に記載された技術的思想の範囲内において種々の変形が可能である。なお直接明細書及び図面に記載がない何れの形状や構造や材質であっても、本願発明の作用・効果を奏する以上、本願発明の技術的思想の範囲内である。
【００３９】
例えば上記実施形態では可動板として可動接点板を用いた例を示したが、クリック板のような他の可動板であっても良いことは言うまでもない。また可動板を取り付ける被取付部材も、粘着シートや基板に限定されず、他の種々の被取付部材であっても良い。
【００４０】
【発明の効果】
以上詳細に説明したように本発明によれば、可動接点板やクリック板等の可動板を効率良く及び精度良く且つ正確に粘着シート等の被取付部材に取り付けることができるという優れた効果を有する。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a movable plate mounting apparatus suitable for use when a movable plate such as a movable contact plate or a click plate is mounted on a member to be mounted such as an adhesive sheet or a substrate.
[0002]
[Prior art]
In a conventional switch mechanism, for example, as shown in FIG. 10, a movable contact plate 203 formed by forming an elastic metal plate in a dome shape is placed on a substrate 200 on which a plurality of switch contacts 201 are formed. There is a switch mechanism for fixing the movable contact plate 203 on the substrate 200 by attaching an adhesive sheet 210 provided with an adhesive layer on one surface of the synthetic resin film.
[0003]
As shown in FIG. 11, this type of switch mechanism is usually assembled by creating a movable contact plate-attached adhesive sheet in which the movable contact plate 203 is attached to the adhesive surface side of the adhesive sheet 210 with the bottom side facing up. Is turned over and attached to the surface of the substrate 200 where the switch contact 201 is formed.
[0004]
FIG. 12 is a schematic configuration diagram of a conventional automatic attachment device for attaching the movable contact plate 203 to the adhesive sheet 210. The automatic attachment device for a movable contact plate shown in the figure comprises a magazine holder 303 formed by fixing a plurality of magazines 301, a suction moving head 311 and a mounting means 331 for mounting an adhesive sheet 210. It is configured. The magazine 301 is in the shape of a pipe, and has a structure in which a large number of movable contact plates 203 are stacked and stored so that the bottom faces upward, and pushed up by the push-up means 321 from the bottom. Each magazine 301 is arranged in a matrix so as to be positioned in the vertical and horizontal directions and corresponding to all positions where the movable contact plate 203 is attached to the adhesive sheet 210. On the other hand, the suction moving head 311 is provided with a vacuum suction portion 313 at a position facing each of the magazines 301, and is attached to a robot arm (manipulator) (not shown) so as to be indicated by an arrow between the magazine holder 303 and the mounting means 331. It is configured to be movable.
[0005]
Then, the suction moving head 311 is lowered onto the magazine holder 303 to suck the uppermost movable contact plate 203 in each magazine 301 facing each other at the tip of each vacuum suction portion 313, and then lifts the suction moving head 311. Then, the movable contact plate 203 is moved to the adhesive sheet 210 on the mounting means 331, and the movable contact plate 203 is brought into contact with and adhered to the adhesive sheet 210. Move to.
[0006]
However, the conventional automatic mounting device for a movable contact plate has the following problems.
(1) The vacuum suction unit 313 of the suction moving head 311 sucks the uppermost movable contact plate 203 in the magazine 301, but sucks when the suction moving head 311 is lifted by sucking the movable contact plate 203. The movable contact plate 203 on the lower side of the movable contact plate 203 is also lifted and moved in a state where two sheets are stacked, and there is a possibility that the two layers are stuck on the adhesive sheet 210.
[0007]
(2) Since some play is required for the movable contact plate 203 to move smoothly in the vertical direction within each magazine 301, the inner diameter dimension of the magazine 301 is made slightly larger than the outer diameter dimension of the movable contact plate 203. Although it is necessary, for this reason, the position of the movable contact plate 203 is slightly deviated in each magazine 301, and there is a possibility that the position of attaching to the adhesive sheet 210 is deviated. In particular, when a large number of movable contact plates 203 are simultaneously attached to the adhesive sheet 210 as in this conventional example, the relative misalignment between the movable contact plates 203 increases, and an error in the attachment position of each movable contact plate 203 occurs. Will become bigger.
[0008]
(3) When the shape of the adhesive sheet 210 and the number and position of the movable contact plates 203 to be affixed to the adhesive sheet 210 are changed, it is necessary to change the arrangement of the magazine 301 and the arrangement of the vacuum suction portions 313 according to the change. There is a poor setup.

[0020]
Next, as shown in FIG. 1, the mounting means 110 is configured by attaching an XY drive mechanism 113, a rotation mechanism 121, and an XY table 125 on a table 111. Here, the XY drive mechanism 113 is disposed on a base 111 and is attached under a linear drive mechanism 117 described later to drive the entire linear drive mechanism 117 in a linear direction (for example, the X-axis direction). 115 and a linear motion drive mechanism 117 which is attached under the rotational mechanism 121 described later and drives the entire rotational mechanism 121 in a linear direction (for example, the Y axis direction) perpendicular to the X axis direction. 115 and 117 are driven and controlled by NC control (numerical control) so that the rotation mechanism 121 and the XY table 125 can be moved in the table surface direction (XY plane direction formed by orthogonal XY axes). It is what. Reference numeral 116 denotes a roller that supports the linear drive mechanism 117 that moves in the linear direction (X-axis direction).
[0021]
The rotation mechanism 121 includes a motor, and the XY table 125 is attached to the drive shaft 122 of the rotation mechanism 121 by attaching the XY table 125 to the table surface (an XY plane formed by orthogonal XY axes). It is configured to be rotatable within.
[0022]
5A and 5B are diagrams showing the XY table 125, where FIG. 5A is a plan view and FIG. 5B is a cross-sectional view. As shown in the drawing, the XY table 125 has a rectangular shape, provided with mounting member mounting locations A1 and A2 for mounting two adhesive sheets 150 on both sides of the upper surface thereof, and a rotating mechanism installed on the lower surface thereof. 121 is configured to be rotatable. The interior of the XY table 125 is hollow, and a plurality of small holes 127 are provided in the mounted member placement locations A1 and A2, respectively, and below the interior of the XY table 125. A vacuum exhaust pipe 129 for exhausting the air is connected. Pins 131 protrude from the outer peripheral four places of the mounted member placement places A1 and A2. One attached member placement location A1 is a movable contact plate attachment location (movable plate attachment location) where the movable contact plate 100 is attached to the adhesive sheet 150, and the other attached member placement location A2 is the adhesive sheet 150 location. It is the attached member attachment / detachment place which attaches / detaches.
[0023]
In addition, 170 shown in FIG. 1 is a scrap cutting device which cuts the strip-shaped plate member 10 after cutting the movable contact plate 100 for every appropriate length.
[0024]
Next, the operation of the movable plate mounting device will be described. First, an adhesive sheet 150 provided with an adhesive layer on one surface of a synthetic resin film is placed on an attached member placement location A2 which is an attached member attaching / detaching location shown in FIG. To do. At that time, pins 131 are inserted into positioning holes 151 provided at the four corners of the adhesive sheet 150 and positioned. At this time, the interior of the XY table 125 is evacuated, and the adhesive sheet 150 is adsorbed to the mounted member placement location A <b> 2 by the small hole 127.
[0025]
When the rotation mechanism 121 is driven and the XY table 125 is rotated by 180 degrees and stopped, the adhesive sheet 150 moves from the attachment / detachment location of the attached member to the attachment location of the movable contact plate. At this time, if there is an adhesive sheet 150 already attached to the movable contact plate 100 that has been moved to the mounting member mounting location A2 on the opposite side, this is removed and a new adhesive sheet 150 is placed.
[0026]
On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 1, the belt-like plate member 10 drawn from the reel 13 is introduced between the punch 21 and the punch receiving member 23 shown in FIG. The head 51 is lowered from the position shown in FIG. 3 and its tip approaches the movable contact plate 100 of the belt-like plate member 10 to vacuum-suck it. Since the movable contact plate 100 has the dome-shaped back side (the concave side) facing upward, this surface is adsorbed.
[0027]
Next, in this state, the punch receiving member 23 is lowered in the lower direction of the arrow a by a driving means (not shown), and thus the movable contact plate 100 is placed on the punch 21 and the punch holes 25 around it. Is lowered, and the pair of connecting portions 11, 11 shown in FIG.
[0028]
The cut movable contact plate 100 is pulled up through the punch hole 25 by the vacuum suction head 51, moved onto the adhesive sheet 150 positioned and placed on the XY table 125, pressed, and pasted. In the present invention, the position at which the movable contact plate 100 is moved by the vacuum suction head 51 is always the same fixed point, while the XY table 125 on which the adhesive sheet 150 to which the movable contact plate 100 is attached is placed in the XY drive. It moves by driving the mechanism 113, thereby attaching the movable contact plate 100 to a desired position on the adhesive sheet 150. The reason why the XY table 125 can be moved in the XY plane direction is that when the vacuum suction head 51 is moved in the three-dimensional direction, the movable contact plate 100 is attached with high accuracy. This is because it takes time and an expensive robot arm must be used. That is, the movable contact plate 100 can be attached with high accuracy and speed by adjusting the attachment position to the adhesive sheet 150 with the XY table 125 while keeping the movement position by the vacuum suction head 51 constant.
[0029]
Before the vacuum suction head 51 returns to the original position shown in FIG. 3, the belt-like plate member 10 has moved by the pitch of the cut movable contact plate 100 to the next movable contact plate 100, The next movable contact plate 100 is located above. If the above operation is repeated in the same manner, the movable contact plate 100 is attached to all predetermined positions on the adhesive sheet 150, and an adhesive sheet with a movable contact plate as shown in FIG. 11 is completed.
[0030]
Next, when the attachment of all the movable contact plates 100 is completed, the rotation mechanism 121 rotates the XY table 125 by 180 degrees as shown in FIG. 5, and a new adhesive sheet 150 to which the movable contact plates 100 are not attached. Is moved to the movable contact plate mounting location, while the adhesive sheet 150 having been attached to the movable contact plate 100 is moved to the attached member attaching / detaching location and replaced with a new adhesive sheet 150. By repeating the above operation, the movable contact plate 100 can be continuously attached to the adhesive sheet 150.
[0031]
By the way, in the said embodiment, although the replacement | exchange of the adhesive sheet 150 is performed manually, you may automate this. FIG. 6 is a view showing a portion of the mounting means 110-2 that does not require manual replacement of the adhesive sheet 150. FIG. 6A is a plan view of the main parts (however, the reels 161 and 163 and the rollers 157 and 159 are described). (B) is a front view of the main part (viewed from the same direction as FIG. 1 (b)). In the figure, the same reference numerals are given to the same or corresponding parts as in the embodiment, and the detailed description thereof is omitted.
[0032]
This mounting means 110-2 attaches the XY table 125 directly without providing a rotation mechanism on the XY drive mechanism 113, and winds the belt-like adhesive sheet 150-2 on the XY table 125. The first reel 153 and the second reel 155 for winding the belt-like adhesive sheet 150-2 after the movable contact plate 100 is attached are installed, and the first and second reels 153 and 155 are connected to the XY. The table 125 is moved along with the movement. 157 and 159 are positioning rollers for placing the belt-like adhesive sheet 150-2 close to the XY table 125, and 161 is a release paper 165 peeled from the adhesive surface of the drawn belt-like adhesive sheet 150-2. A reel 163 for winding is a reel for supplying release paper 167 to be attached to the adhesive surface after the movable contact plate 100 is attached. Note that the rotational drive mechanisms of the first and second reels 153 and 155 are not shown.
[0033]
And by rotating and driving the first and second reels 153 and 155, the predetermined part of the strip-shaped adhesive sheet 150-2 where the release paper is peeled off from the movable contact plate mounting portion E is positioned with the adhesive surface facing upward and stopped. The movable contact plate 100 is supplied to a fixed point by the vacuum suction head 51 while moving the XY table 125 integrally with the first and second reels 153 and 155 in the XY plane direction. It sticks on the desired place of the strip | belt-shaped adhesive sheet 150-2. When this pasting operation is completed, the belt-like adhesive sheet 150-2 is moved by one adhesive sheet 150 minutes and the above operation is repeated again. If comprised in this way, the movable contact plate 100 can be automatically affixed to the strip | belt-shaped adhesive sheet 150-2 automatically without a manual intervention. With the above apparatus, an adhesive sheet with a movable contact plate as shown in FIG. 11 is completed.
[0034]
