GEAR TO MOUNT RADIO ELEMENTS, MAINLY MICROCIRCUITS, ON PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARDS Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: radio engineering. SUBSTANCE: gear includes frame 1, coordinate plate 3, inductor 4 mounted on air cushion on plate 3. Inductor 4 carries setting head 5 with mechanism for gripping radio elements. Support 9 for printed circuit board 10 and guides 12 and 13 to feed microcircuits with vibration drives are anchored on frame 1. Frame 1 has also magazine of grippers with separable gripping mechanisms. Inductor 4 moves over plate 3 by two coordinates and positions setting head 5 so that gripping mechanism 6 emerges above one of microcircuits on guides 12 or 13. Gripping mechanism 6 picks up microcircuit from guide, inductor 4 then moves to printed circuit board 10 and microcircuit is mounted on printed circuit board 10. For replacement of gripping mechanism 6 inductor 4 moves to magazine with grippers, inserts gripping mechanism 6 into vacant cell and takes new gripping mechanism 6 from another cell. EFFECT: expanded technological capabilities thanks to setting of radio elements of various types and dimensions. 2 cl, 10 dwg
