Device for placing components, which are provided with connecting pins, on circuit boards having integrated fault detection

摘要

The invention relates to a device for placing components (11), which are provided with connecting pins (11a), on circuit boards (13) which are provided with apertures (13a) into which the connecting pins (11a) are inserted when the component is positioned correctly, having a placement tool (5) which grips a component (11) which is to be positioned and moves this component into the placement position, acted on by a pressure die (7), with a resiliently elastic connection (17) between the pressure die (7) and the placement tool (5), the stiffness of which connection is maintained such that the tool parts are held spaced apart as long as all connecting pins (11a) are passing without interference into the associated apertures (13a), and such that the connection (17) flexes if at least one of the connecting pins (11a) misses its aperture (13a), a sensor (17) being activated in the event of such a flexing, which sensor (17) emits a signal which reports a placement error.
