Abstract
Substrates can be transported on a top transporting section to component-fitting locations of a component-fitting apparatus. Conveying sections for substrates which are to be routed past the component-fitting locations are arranged on a number of conveying levels beneath the transporting section.
Claims38
An apparatus for fitting electrical components on a substrate, comprising:
- a transporting section of a first level, adapted to transport a substrate to and away from a component-fitting location;
- a plurality of conveying sections, wherein installation locations for the plurality of conveying sections are arranged on at least two conveying levels located one above the other;
- transverse connecting parts of a chassis of the apparatus, arranged between the transporting section and the conveying sections, wherein at least one longitudinally continuous free space is formed beneath the transverse connecting parts and the conveying sections of the chassis;
- and
- a tubular chassis part, extending in the conveying direction, wherein a cavity is formed in the free space thereof, wherein a top tube wall of the chassis part forms the transverse connecting parts, and wherein the transporting section is provided on the top tube wall.

An apparatus for placing electrical components on a substrate, comprising:
- a transporting section, adapted to transport a substrate to and away from a component-placing location;
- a plurality of conveying sections, arranged on at least two conveying levels located one above the other, and located beneath the transporting section;
- and
- a chassis having transverse connecting parts arranged between the transporting section and the conveying sections, wherein at least one longitudinally continuous free space is formed beneath the conveying sections of the chassis,
- wherein the chassis is a tubular chassis part, extending in the conveying direction, wherein a cavity is formed in the free space thereof wherein a top tube wall of the chassis part forms the transverse connecting parts and wherein the transporting section is provided on the top tube wall.
