EJECTION MECHANISM, SUBSTITUTE ROUTE MEMBER, PART SUPPLY MECHANISM AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING BOARD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique for an ejection mechanism that can secure an ejection route even in such a case that a cutting unit must be removed from the ejection route.SOLUTION: An ejection mechanism has an ejection route, a cutting unit and a substitute route member. A waste tape as a carrier tape after an electrical part is taken out therefrom is passed through the ejection route. The cutting unit has a cutting part for cutting the waste tape passing through the ejection route, and forms a part of the ejection route. The cutting unit is detachably mounted in the ejection route. The substitute route member fills a vacancy in the ejection route occurring when the cutting unit is removed from the ejection route.
