Abstract

A cut and clinch unit is provided with pair of slide bodies, and each slide body is configured from movable section and fixed section that slidably holds the movable section. An insertion hole is formed in the movable section. A pair of leads of a leaded component are inserted into the insertion holes of a pair of slide bodies, and the pair of leads are bent into an N shape by each movable section being slid. The cut and clinch unit is movable in the XY directions by operation of a moving device. Also, the distance between the pair of slide bodies can be changed freely. Accordingly, it is possible to mount leads at any position on a board in a state bent into an N shape, and to mount leaded components with various different lead separation distances on a board in a state bent into an N shape.

Dependent claims

A bending device comprising:

a bending unit including a pair of bending bodies each having a slide section in which is formed an insertion hole configured to have a lead of a leaded component inserted therein, and a holding section configured to slidably hold the slide section, the bending unit being configured to bend a pair of leads inserted into the insertion holes of the pair of bending bodies in a different direction to a direction in which the pair of leads are lined up by the sliding section being slid;
and
a moving device configured to move the bending unit in a direction perpendicular to an insertion direction of the leads into the insertion holes.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
