Abstract
Provided is an apparatus capable of easily splicing ACF tapes that are thin and are hard to handle. The tape splicing apparatus splices two ACF tapes (210) each having an ACF (212), and includes: a first holding unit that holds one of the ACF tapes (210); a second holding unit that holds the other one of the ACF tapes (210); a positioning unit (115) that positions the ACF tapes (210) to be overlapped in a thickness direction; and a pressing unit (116) that presses the overlapped ACF tapes (210) in the thickness direction.

17. An Anisotropic Conductive Film (ACF) attaching apparatus that attaches an ACF on a board by supplying, above the board, an ACF tape having the ACF on one side, cutting the ACF to a predetermined length, and pressing the ACF tape to the board, the one side of the ACF tape excluding both ends of a base tape of the ACF tape, the both ends including a terminal end and a beginning end, said attaching apparatus comprising:
-
a first holding unit operable to hold the terminal end of the base tape included in the ACF tape that is being used; a second holding unit operable to hold a beginning end of a base tape included in an additional ACF tape; a positioning unit operable to position the terminal end of the base tape that is being used and the beginning end of the additional base tape to be overlapped in a thickness direction; and a pressing unit operable to press the overlapped ends of the ACF tapes in the thickness direction. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)

20. An Anisotropic Conductive Film (ACF) attaching method that attaches an ACF on a board by supplying, above the board, an ACF tape having the ACF on one side, cutting the ACF to a predetermined length, and pressing the ACF tape to the board, the one side of the ACF tape excluding both ends of a base tape of the ACF tape, the both ends including a terminal end and a beginning end, said attaching method in the case where one of the ends of the ACF tape that is being used is detected, said attaching method comprising:
-
holding the terminal end of the base tape included in the ACF tape that is being used; holding a beginning end of a base tape included in an additional ACF tape; positioning the terminal end of the base tape that is being used and the beginning end of the additional base tape to be overlapped in a thickness direction; and pressing the overlapped ends of the ACF tapes in the thickness direction for splicing the ACF tapes, wherein said attaching method is repeated using additional ACF tapes. - View Dependent Claims (21)
