Abstract

A mounting target working device includes a head unit, a first mounting target work area in which the head unit mounts a component on a first mounting target having a flat plate shape, and a second mounting target work area in which the head unit mounts the component on a second mounting target having a three-dimensional shape as compared with the first mounting target.

Claims

1. A mounting target working device comprising:

a head unit;

a first mounting target work area in which the head unit performs an operation on a first mounting target having a flat plate shape; and

a second mounting target work area in which the head unit performs the operation on a second mounting target having a three-dimensional shape as compared with the first mounting target.

2. The mounting target working device according to claim 1, further comprising:

a first mounting target holder configured to hold the first mounting target when the head unit performs the operation on the first mounting target in the first mounting target work area; and

a second mounting target holder configured to hold the second mounting target and move the held second mounting target along an upward-downward direction, or rotate or incline the held second mounting target when the head unit performs the operation on the second mounting target in the second mounting target work area;

wherein

the first mounting target work area is an area in which the first mounting target holder is disposed; and

the second mounting target work area is an area in which the second mounting target holder is disposed.

3. The mounting target working device according to claim 2, wherein the first mounting target work area and the second mounting target work area are disposed at different positions from each other.

4. The mounting target working device according to claim 3, further comprising a conveyance unit including a conveyance path through which the first mounting target and the second mounting target are carried in, conveyed, and carried out;

wherein

the first mounting target work area is disposed in the conveyance path.

5. The mounting target working device according to claim 4, wherein the second mounting target work area is disposed outside the conveyance path.

6. The mounting target working device according to claim 5, further comprising a transfer unit configured to receive the second mounting target from the conveyance unit and transfer the second mounting target to the second mounting target work area.

7. The mounting target working device according to claim 6, wherein

the transfer unit includes:

a first transfer portion disposed in the conveyance path and that is movable in the upward-downward direction and configured to receive the second mounting target from the conveyance unit; and

a second transfer portion disposed outside the conveyance path and that is configured to receive the second mounting target from the first transfer portion and transfer the second mounting target to the second mounting target work area; and

the first transfer portion, the second transfer portion, and the second mounting target work area are disposed side by side in a direction orthogonal to a conveyance direction in the conveyance path.

8. The mounting target working device according to claim 7, wherein the first transfer portion is disposed at a different position from that of the first mounting target work area in the conveyance path.

9. The mounting target working device according to claim 7, wherein the first transfer portion is disposed in the first mounting target work area of the conveyance path.

10. The mounting target working device according to claim 9, wherein

the first mounting target holder includes a mounting target fixing unit configured to fix the first mounting target when the head unit performs the operation on the first mounting target in the first mounting target work area;

and

in a state in which the mounting target fixing unit is retracted, the first transfer portion of the transfer unit receives the second mounting target from the conveyance unit.

11. The mounting target working device according to claim 7, wherein after the head unit performs the operation on the second mounting target, the second transfer portion receives the second mounting target, the second transfer portion delivers the second mounting target to the first transfer portion, and the first transfer portion delivers the second mounting target to the conveyance unit.

12. The mounting target working device according to claim 4, wherein the second mounting target work area is disposed in the conveyance path.

13. The mounting target working device according to claim 8, wherein after the head unit performs the operation on the second mounting target, the second transfer portion receives the second mounting target, the second transfer portion delivers the second mounting target to the first transfer portion, and the first transfer portion delivers the second mounting target to the conveyance unit.

14. The mounting target working device according to claim 9, wherein after the head unit performs the operation on the second mounting target, the second transfer portion receives the second mounting target, the second transfer portion delivers the second mounting target to the first transfer portion, and the first transfer portion delivers the second mounting target to the conveyance unit.

15. The mounting target working device according to claim 10, wherein after the head unit performs the operation on the second mounting target, the second transfer portion receives the second mounting target, the second transfer portion delivers the second mounting target to the first transfer portion, and the first transfer portion delivers the second mounting target to the conveyance unit.
