  • Publication number: 20230280962
    Abstract: A display panel is adapted to display at least one meter image including a pointer image constituting a pointer and a mark image constituting a mark that the pointer is adapted to point to. A processor controls the display state of the pointer image. The processor causes the pointer image to be displayed on the display panel when the pointer image does not point to the mark image and causes the pointer image to be displayed on the display panel in a second display mode when the pointer image points to the mark image. The first display mode and the second display mode are different.

  • Patent number: 10165719
    Abstract: An electronic component mounting system includes: a printing apparatus; an electronic component mounting apparatus; and a mounting information storage unit which stores mounting information. The mounting information includes execution mode information in which one of a first mounting mode and a second mounting mode is set for each of electronic components. In the first mounting mode, the electronic component is placed at a mounting position corrected on the basis of a recognition result of a first recognition mark formed on a board. In the second mounting mode, the electronic component is placed at a mounting position corrected on the basis of a recognition result of a second recognition mark formed by paste printed on the board. The electronic components are mounted on the board according to mounting modes set for the respective electronic components by referring to the mounting information.

  • Patent number: 9661793
    Abstract: In mounting position correction of detecting a position of printed solder, calculating a positional-shift amount between a position of an electrode and the position of the printed solder, and correcting a mounting position based on the calculated positional-shift amount, when a correction amount based on the calculated positional-shift amount exceeds a limit value which indicates an upper limit of the correction amount which is defined and allowed in mounting information, the electronic component is mounted on the mounting position which is corrected by considering the limit value as the correction amount. Accordingly, it is possible to appropriately employ mounting position correction by considering a solder printing position as a reference in accordance with the degree of printing position shift, and to obtain an expected joint quality improvement effect.

  • Patent number: 8596735
    Abstract: Ejection of ink is prohibited when a count value of an amount of ink supplied from an ink tank to an ejection head reaches a value limit. An image is displayed to prompt an operator of the printing apparatus to confirm the amount of ink in the ink tank. When the ink remains, the count value of the amount of ink is returned only by a given amount by the selection of the operator. Thus, since the ink in the ink tank is sufficiently consumed and then the ink can be supplemented, all of the ink in an ink bottle can be supplemented. As a consequence, it is possible to prevent the ink remaining in the ink bottle from deteriorating and prevent the remaining ink from being supplemented.

  • Patent number: 8485622
    Abstract: If an ink amount supplied from an ink tank to an ejection head reaches a predetermined limit value, ink ejection is not permitted. If initialization data are input and the input initialization data are appropriate, a count value of the ink amount is initialized, and the ink ejection is started again. In addition, the initialization data which is input once and determined to be appropriate is determined to be inappropriate thereafter. By doing so, although ink of which the property and state are inappropriate is used for the refilling, since appropriate initialization data may not be input, it is possible to avoid the inappropriate ink from being used for the refilling.

  • Publication number: 20120189188
    Abstract: Provided is a component mounting system and a mounting state inspection method in the component mounting system in which accurate mounting state inspection can be achieved with good operability. A board image capturing operation for image-capturing an inspection range of a board to be inspected to acquire captured image data is executed on the board before and after mounting work is executed on the board by inspection modules M3A and M6A. A difference between pre-mounting image data and post-mounting image data thus acquired is calculated so that each component is extracted by a component extraction processing portion 3a. The shape and position of the extracted component are compared with inspection data indicating the shape and position of a normal component stored in advance so that whether the mounting state of each component on the board is good or not, is determined by a discrimination processing portion 3b.

  • Patent number: 8139584
    Abstract: A frame transmission device having a port for transmitting and receiving a frame and a learning table for storing a transmission source address included in the frame received at the port and the receiving port in association with each other includes: a port detector for detecting whether learning data coincident with the transmission source address included in the frame received at the port is stored in the learning table; a port judging unit for comparing a port learned in the learning data detected by the port detector to the receiving port; and a loop judging unit for judging on the basis of a time lapse from the storage of the learning data whether the frame is in a loop or not when the port learned in the learning data is not coincident with the receiving port.
