Abstract: A component supply device includes a transport path that guides a component connected body from a component insertion port on an upstream side in a component feeding direction to a component supply position on a downstream side, the component connected body including a plurality of axial components arranged and connected at a predetermined pitch, the plurality of axial components each having a lead, and a feed mechanism that pitch-feeds the component connected body along the transport path to the downstream side. The feed mechanism includes a feed member which has a plurality of feed hooks disposed at the predetermined pitch along the component feeding direction, a rotating shaft which is connected to one end side of the feed member, and a moving mechanism which is connected to the feed member through the rotating shaft and reciprocates the rotating shaft along the component feeding direction.

Abstract: A component mounting device configured to mount an axial component on a substrate, comprising: a movable forming-die; a fixed forming-die; a mounting head; and a distance adjustment portion, wherein the distance adjustment portion makes an adjustment such that when the movable forming-die delivers the axial component to the mounting head the distance between the claws is larger than a distance of the fixed forming-die.

Abstract: In a parts mounting method having plural parts feed units, for setting aside a parts feed unit at a refill position if running short of a certain part in the process of mounting parts, and continuing parts mounting in other parts feed units, it is intended to reduce production stops due to parts shortage, and enhance the operation rate of the mounting machine. To achieve the object, the method of the invention comprises a step of judging if parts are refilled in the parts feed unit 4R at the refill position when parts shortage occurs while mounting parts in the parts feed unit 4L, a step of judging if all parts feed units 4L, 4R are out of the parts which are in shortage if parts are not refilled, and a step of mounting parts from the parts feed unit 4R at the refill position if shortage parts are present in the parts feed unit 4R at the refill position.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for transferring a printed circuit board to an intended position at a high speed accurately and reliably.
