Patents by Inventor Kenichirou Ishimoto

Kenichirou Ishimoto has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8849442
    Abstract: Disclosed are a component mounting line and a component mounting method where it is not necessary for an operator to perform an input operation in an inspection device when substitute components are used in a component mounting device. When substitute components are mounted in place of one type of components at the mounting positions on the substrate PB, a component mounting device 4 creates substitute component related data including information specifying the substrate PB on which substitute components are mounted and the mounting positions at which the substitute components on the substrate PB are mounted and information indicating the types of substitute components and transmits the substitute component related data to the post-mounting inspection device.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8646174
    Abstract: An object is to provide an electronic component mounting method in which an adequate component mounting work to which a check result is correctly reflected is enabled and it is possible to satisfy both reduction of the failure occurrence rate and improvement of the working efficiency. An electronic component mounting apparatus in which an appearance checking section which checks a board to detect existence or non-existence of a failure item, and a component mounting section which transfers and mounts an allocated mounting object component to the board in which the check is ended are integrally disposed includes a mounting availability determination processing section 28d which determines an availability of an execution of an operation of mounting the mounting object component, based on a result of detection of a failure item.
