Abstract

A feeder maintenance device manages history information including at least one of a usage count of a consumable part or a measurement value of the consumable part used in a cleaning section, and displays information on a usage state of the consumable part as a consumable parts screen based on history information. With feeder maintenance device, information related to the consumable part can be reported to an operator. Also, with feeder maintenance device, because an operator can replace or replenish a consumable part, it is possible to perform maintenance processing of feeder more reliably.

First claim

1 . A feeder maintenance device comprising:
an attachment section configured to have a feeder attached, the feeder being used on a mounting device that mounts components on a board; a cleaning section configured to clean a specified section of the feeder; and a control section configured to manage history information including at least one of a usage count of a consumable part used in the cleaning section or a measurement value of the consumable part used in the cleaning section, and to report information on a usage state of the consumable part based on the history information.

2 . The feeder maintenance device according to claim 1 , wherein the consumable part used in the cleaning section includes at least one of cleaning liquid or a filter configured to filter specific materials during cleaning.

3 . The feeder maintenance device according to claim 1 , further comprising
a lubricant supply section configured to supply lubricant to a drive section of the feeder, wherein the control section is configured to manage history information including at least one of a usage count of a consumable part used in the lubricant supply section or a measurement value of the consumable part used in the lubricant supply section, and to report information on a usage state of the consumable part based on the history information.

4 . A feeder maintenance device comprising:
an attachment section configured to have a feeder attached, the feeder being used on a mounting device that mounts components on a board; a lubricant supply section configured to supply lubricant to a drive section of the feeder; and a control section configured to manage history information including at least one of a usage count of a consumable part used in the lubricant supply section or a measurement value of the consumable part used in the lubricant supply section, and to report information on a usage state of the consumable part based on the history information.

5 . The feeder maintenance device according to claim 3 , wherein
the consumable part used in the lubricant supply section includes lubricant.

6 . The feeder maintenance device according to claim 1 , further comprising
an inspection unit configured to perform inspection of the feeder, wherein the control section is configured to manage history information including at least one of a usage count of a consumable part used in the inspection unit or a measurement value of the consumable part used in the inspection unit, and to report information on a usage state of the consumable part based on the history information.

7 . A feeder maintenance device comprising:
an attachment section configured to have a feeder attached, the feeder being used on a mounting device that mounts components on a board; an inspection unit section configured to perform inspection of the feeder; and a control section configured to manage history information including at least one of a usage count of a consumable part used in the inspection unit or a measurement value of the consumable part used in the inspection unit, and to report information on a usage state of the consumable part based on the history information.

8 . The feeder maintenance device according to claim 6 , wherein
the consumable part used in the inspection unit includes at least one of a drive pin connected to a drive section of the feeder and configured to rotate the drive section, or a master tape modeled on tape configured to house components.

9 . The feeder maintenance device according to claim 1 , wherein
the control section is configured to not perform processing on the feeder that is next attached to the attachment section when one of at least the usage count or the measurement value of the consumable part included in the history information reaches a specified threshold value.
