Multiplex communication system and work machine
First Claim
1. An electronic component mounting machine which performs a mounting work, comprising:
- a movable section which holds a workpiece; and
a multiplex communication system which transmits data concerning the mounting work, the multiplex communication system comprising;
a master multiplexing device;
a first slave multiplexing device which is connected to the master multiplexing device through an optical communication cable, and performs multiplex communication with the master multiplexing device by optical communication; and
a second slave multiplexing device which is connected to the first slave multiplexing device through an electric communication cable, the electric communication cable being configured to be attachable and detachable, and performs multiplex communication with the first slave multiplexing device by electric communication,wherein the first slave multiplexing device performsa demultiplexing process of separating data directed to the first slave multiplexing device, among multiplexed data received from the master multiplexing device, by multiplex communication by the optical communication, anda transfer process of multiplexing data directed to the second slave multiplexing device from the master multiplexing device, among data demultiplexed according to the demultiplexing process, and transferring the multiplexed data to the second slave multiplexing device by multiplex communication by the electric communication, andwherein the movable section includes the second slave multiplexing device, and is configured to be attachable to and detachable from a device main body of the electronic component mounting machine.

Abstract
In an electronic component mounting device, a first multiplexing device of a head section which is attachable to and detachable from a Y-axis slider is connected to a second multiplexing device through an electric communication cable. The first multiplexing device, from which the cable is likely to be removed, is connected through the electric communication cable for which the communication failure due to dust or the like is relatively unlikely to occur. Second and third multiplexing devices, from which cables are less likely to be removed, are connected through the optical communication cable. The second multiplexing device separates data directed to the input and output device, among frame data received from the third multiplexing device, multiplexes only data directed to the first multiplexing device from the second multiplexing device, and transfers the multiplexed data to the first multiplexing device by the electric communication cable.
