A rectangular posture restriction hole 39b that is slightly larger than the outer shape of the inner conductor terminal 30, and a posture guide hole 39c that gradually expands in a tapered shape from the end of the posture restriction hole 39b on the second supply position G side. Are provided along an insertion path from the second supply position G to the inner conductor mounting position J.

  When the inner conductor terminal 30 conveyed to the second supply position G is inserted into the mounting hole 35a of the holder member 35 in the outer conductor terminal 33 arranged at the inner conductor mounting position J, the inner conductor terminal 30 is When passing through the guide hole 39a of the inner conductor guide body 39, the posture of the inner conductor terminal 30 is gradually guided to a predetermined posture by the posture guide hole portion 39c, and when passing through the posture regulating hole portion 39b, It is configured to have a predetermined posture suitable for insertion of the mounting hole 35a.

  Further, the inner conductor guide body 39 is composed of a pair of inner conductor guides 39d and 39e having a guide hole 39a divided, and the inner conductor guides 39d and 39e are contacted and separated from each other as indicated by phantom lines in FIG. It is configured to be freely operable.

  11, the outer conductor terminal 33 is disposed at the inner conductor mounting position J, the inner conductor terminal 30 and the capacitor 18 are conveyed to the second supply position G, and the inner conductor guides 39d and 39e are in contact with each other. In this state, by controlling the movement of the suction pipe 28 in the direction of the inner conductor mounting position J, the inner conductor terminal 30 and the capacitor 18 adsorbed on the tip of the suction pipe 28 are inserted into the mounting hole 35a in the holder member 35 of the outer conductor terminal 33. It is conveyed toward.

  If the orientation of the inner conductor terminal 30 is distorted during the conveyance, the guide hole 39a of the inner conductor guide body 39 is corrected to a predetermined posture suitable for insertion of the mounting hole 35a. The inner conductor guide body 39 may be controlled so that the inner conductor guides 39d and 39e are separated from each other after passing through the inner conductor terminal 30. If there is no problem in the subsequent insertion operation, the inner conductor guide body 39 is maintained in a contact state. It may be.

  Thereafter, the inner conductor terminal 30 in a predetermined posture is transported in the direction of the mounting hole 35a by the movement of the suction pipe 28, and the inner conductor terminals 30 are sequentially inserted into the mounting hole 35a. As shown in FIG. 2, the inner conductor terminal 30 is inserted into the mounting hole 35a and mounted (inner conductor mounting step). In addition, in the mounting state of the inner conductor terminal 30 in the mounting hole 35a, the holder member 35 and the inner conductor terminal 30 are locked in a retaining state by appropriate locking means. Then, after the inner conductor terminal 30 is mounted in the mounting hole 35a, the suction of the suction pipe 28 is released, and in the suction released state, the suction pipe 28 is retracted and returned to the second supply position G (adsorption means retracting step). .

  Here, as shown in FIG. 14, the inner conductor terminal 30 is fitted in the holder member 35 of the substantially cylindrical portion 33d of the outer conductor terminal 33, and the capacitor is placed on the holder member 35 of the semicylindrical portion 33e. 18 and the other lead portion 18b of the capacitor 18 is cantilevered between the opposing side pieces 33h of the terminal intermediate portion 33b.

  By repeating these series of operations, the crimp terminal 41 in which the inner conductor terminal 30 and the capacitor 18 are assembled in the outer conductor terminal 33 is sequentially assembled in a chain shape.

  Then, on the downstream side of the inner conductor mounting position J in the inner conductor mounting station 13, from a CCD camera or the like that images the inspection area K as the third inspection position corresponding to the protruding portion of the other cantilevered lead portion 18b. The third imaging means (not shown) is arranged. Whether the length and orientation of the other lead portion 18b are included in the allowable range by imaging the inspection region K and performing image processing based on the image data. A third inspection device (not shown) for determining whether or not is good is provided. In the present embodiment, the first imaging means is controlled to move in advance to the inspection region K and take an image to determine the quality. That is, the first imaging unit and the first inspection device are used as the third imaging unit and the third inspection device.

  If the determination by the third inspection apparatus is defective, it is appropriately eliminated as an error in the disposed defective disposal unit. For example, the crimp terminal 41 determined to be defective is cut off at the connecting portion between the outer conductor terminal chain 34 and the outer conductor terminal 33 by a defective terminal cutting device (not shown) arranged on the downstream side in the supply direction Q. It is configured. In addition, when the determination by the third inspection apparatus is good, the crimp terminals 41 are sequentially supplied to the outer conductor crimp station 14 which is the next process.

  The suction pipe 28 returned to the second supply position G is then returned to the standby position C, which is the initial position, and the next capacitor 18 is transported in the same manner as described above.

  The outer conductor crimping station 14 is provided with a terminal crimping machine for crimping the outer conductor terminal 33 and the co-crimping terminal 37, and in parallel with the chained outer conductor terminal 33 sequentially supplied from the inner conductor mounting station 13. As shown in FIG. 15, the co-crimp terminals 37 in a chain form are also sequentially supplied.

  In this chain co-crimp terminal 37, a plurality of co-crimp terminals 37 formed in a semi-cylindrical shape having a substantially U-shaped cross section are arranged in parallel with a predetermined interval on the co-crimp terminal chain band 43 on one end side thereof. It is a chain structure connected to each other. A plurality of feed holes 43a are formed in the co-crimp terminal chain 43 at a predetermined interval. As shown in FIG. 16, using the feed holes 43a, an appropriate feed mechanism or the like supplies the feed direction. It is set as the structure in which it sends in order along R.

  The co-crimp terminals 37 are sequentially supplied to a lower position corresponding to the opening 33k of the crimp terminal 41 supplied to the terminal crimp position M in the outer conductor crimp station 14.

  While the crimp terminal 41 is supplied to the terminal crimp position M in a predetermined posture and the co-crimp terminal 37 is supplied, it is scaled to a predetermined length by manual work or the like as described above, and the external conductor is peeled off. As shown in FIG. 16, the coaxial wire 1 in which the braided layer 1 c as the inner conductor and the central conductor 1 d as the inner conductor are exposed for a predetermined length is set from above the crimp terminal 41. That is, when the end portion of the outer skin layer 1a is arranged at an upper position corresponding to the second pressure-bonding piece 33g and is lowered, the end portion of the outer skin layer 1a is set at the position of the second pressure-bonding piece 33g, and the position of the first pressure-bonding piece 33f is set. The exposed braid layer 1c is set, and the exposed central conductor 1d is set at a position corresponding to the lead portion 18b.

  When the coaxial wire 1 is set to the crimp terminal 41 and the terminal crimping machine is crimped, the lead portion 18b and the center conductor 1d are crimped by the co-crimp terminal 37 as shown in FIG. The co-crimp terminal 37 is separated from the co-crimp terminal chain 43, and the first crimp piece 33f and the second crimp piece 33g of the outer conductor terminal 33 are crimped to the braid layer 1c and the outer skin layer 1a, respectively, and for the outer conductor terminal. A state of being disconnected from the chain band 34 is obtained, and a state in which the crimp terminal 41 is crimped to the end portion of the coaxial cable 1 is obtained (terminal crimping step).

  Then, after the terminal crimping process, a fourth imaging means (not shown) including a CCD camera or the like provided in the product inspection station 15 is used to crimp the first crimping piece 33f, the second crimping piece 33g, and the co-crimping terminal 37. The fourth inspection apparatus (not shown) determines whether or not the crimping state of the crimped portion is good by image processing based on the image data. In addition, the method of performing the visual inspection of each crimping | compression-bonding part after this terminal crimping process may be sufficient. In addition, as a method for determining pass / fail by image processing in each inspection apparatus, a known image processing method may be appropriately employed.

  The present embodiment is configured as described above. When the crimp terminal 41 is assembled, the lead parts 18a and 18b on both sides of the capacitor 18 in the electric component chain member 20 sequentially sent out at the electric component supply station 11. Next, the capacitor 18 is aligned with the reference position by using the clamp bodies 22a and 22b (positioning process), and each dimension adjusting cutter body 26a and 26b is in this aligned state. After cutting the lead portions 18a and 18b and adjusting the projecting lengths of the lead portions 18a and 18b to a predetermined length (dimension adjusting step), the suction pipe 28 is fitted into the lead portion 18b in the suction state. Thus, the capacitor 18 is held in the suction state (electrical component suction step). In this state, it is automatically conveyed to the next process.

  In the inner conductor crimping station 12, the crimping portion 30b of the inner conductor terminal 30 is crimped to one lead portion 18a of the attracted capacitor 18 by the movement control of the suction pipe 28 (inner conductor crimping step).

  Thereafter, the inner conductor terminal 30 is connected to one lead portion 18a of the capacitor 18 and is automatically conveyed by the suction pipe 28 to the inner conductor mounting station 13 of the next process.

  In the inner conductor mounting station 13, the attracted inner conductor terminal 30 is inserted into the mounting hole 35 a of the holder member 35 in the outer conductor terminal 33 and mounted by controlling the movement of the suction pipe 28 (inner conductor mounting). Step) After the mounting, suction of the suction pipe 28 is released, and in the suction released state, the suction pipe 28 is retracted and returned to the second supply position G (suction means retracting step). Here, the crimp terminal 41 is assembled.

  Thereafter, the crimp terminal 41 is sent out to the outer conductor crimping station 14, and the co-crimp terminal 37 is supplied to the outer conductor crimping station 14, and the coaxial electric wire 1 peeled in a desired state is supplied, crimped, and leaded. The portion 18b and the central conductor 1d are crimped and connected by the co-crimping terminal 37, and the first crimping piece 33f and the second crimping piece 33g of the outer conductor terminal 33 are crimped and connected to the braided layer 1c and the outer skin layer 1a, respectively. Thus, a state in which the crimp terminal 41 is crimped and connected to the end of the coaxial cable 1 is obtained (terminal crimping step).

  As described above, since a series of crimp terminals 41 for assembling the inner conductor terminal 30 and the capacitor 18 to the outer conductor terminal 33 can be automatically performed by automatic conveyance control by the suction pipe 28, cycle time can be improved. In addition to being excellent in productivity, cost reduction can be achieved, positioning accuracy can be improved, and product quality can be improved.

  In addition, the inner conductor terminal 30 which is a fine component and the lead portion 18a of the capacitor 18 can be automatically crimped, so that it is not necessary to bring a hand close as in manual work, and safety is improved.

  In particular, when supplying the capacitor 18 having the lead portions 18a and 18b having a predetermined length, which is a fine part, both the lead portions 18a and 18b are clamped by the clamp bodies 22a and 22b, and both the cutting cutter bodies 23a and 23b are used. The lead portions 18a and 18b are cut off and separated from the electrical component chain member 20, and then the movable clamp body 22b is moved closer to one reference clamp body 22a, and the capacitor 18 is sandwiched between the clamp bodies 22a and 22b. Since the lead portions 18a and 18b are cut by the dimension adjusting cutter bodies 26a and 26b with reference to the reference surface 25 of the reference clamp body 22a, the lead of each capacitor 18 is caused by a manufacturing error in the electrical component chain member 20 or the like. In the mounting position due to misalignment in the protruding direction of the parts 18a, 18b Even in the case where there is a difference, it is possible to correct misalignment or the like in the positioning step after separation, and the lead portions 18a and 18b in the capacitor 18 are made to have a predetermined protruding length without being affected by such an error. It can be cut at the position, and the protruding length of each lead portion 18a, 18b in the separated capacitor 18 can be ensured with high accuracy, and the protruding length of each lead portion 18a, 18b can be accurately adjusted to a predetermined dimension. A well-adjusted capacitor 18 can be supplied automatically.

  Furthermore, since the crimp terminals 41 assembled in sequence are transported to the position of the outer conductor crimping station 14, the operator only needs to be at the position of the outer conductor crimping station 14, and each station 11, 12, 13, 14, There is no need to move across.

  Further, in each inspection region E, H, K, the processing status is inspected by image processing, and the inspection accuracy is improved and the generation of defective products is effective compared to the case of visual inspection. There is an advantage that the quality of the product can be further improved.

  Furthermore, when crimping the crimping terminal 41 and the coaxial cable 1, the coaxial cable 1 can be set from above, and compared with the case where it is inserted into the outer conductor terminal 33 from the axial direction, the crimping part 33 c and the braid The sliding contact with the layer 1c can be effectively prevented, and problems such as scattering of the braided layer 1c can be effectively avoided.

  Further, since the inner conductor guide body 39 is disposed between the inner conductor mounting position J and the second supply position G in the inner conductor mounting station 13, the holder mounted on the connection portion 33 a of the outer conductor terminal 33. When the inner conductor terminal 30 is inserted into the mounting hole 35a of the member 35, there is an advantage that the inner conductor terminal 30 can be corrected to a predetermined posture, and the inner conductor mounting process is smoothly performed.

  Further, since the suction pipe 28 that can be fitted onto the other lead portion 18b is employed as the suction means, the suction state of the capacitor 18 and the like is stabilized, and the transfer operation can be performed satisfactorily.

  In the above embodiment, the inner conductor mounting station 13 and the outer conductor crimping station 14 are arranged side by side. However, the chain-like crimp terminal 41 assembled at the inner conductor mounting station 13 is wound up. It is good also as a structure which crimps | bonds the crimp terminal 41 with respect to the coaxial electric wire 1 in the outer conductor crimping station 14 arrange | positioned separately using the accommodated chain-shaped crimp terminal 41. FIG.

  In the coaxial cable 1, a conductive foil such as an aluminum foil may be provided on the inner periphery, the outer periphery, or both of the braided layer 1 c, and the two conductors are not necessarily disposed concentrically. There is no need, and an electric wire in which two conductors are arranged in parallel may be used. Furthermore, an electric wire provided with another conductor in addition to the two conductors may be used. That is, all the electric wires having at least two conductors are targeted for processing.

  Furthermore, although the structure using the capacitor 18 is shown as an electrical component, various electrical components having a pair of lead components such as a resistance component and a rectifying element component should be adopted according to the required electrical characteristics.
