<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device for mounting an electronic component capable of reading information codes at low costs with a simple mechanism, and to provide a method of reading information codes in the electronic component mounting device. <P>SOLUTION: When reading the information code 22 where a size applied to a substrate in advance is larger than the size of an imaging visual field 20a of a camera, the information code 22 is captured for a plurality of times and a divided imaging pattern for acquiring a plurality of divided images G1-G4 is set, the camera and an imaging moving means for moving the camera are controlled according to the divided imaging pattern to composite the plurality of divided images G1-G4, a single image in the information code is generated, and information is read from the composited single image, thus reading the information code at low costs with a simple mechanism without requiring any expensive imaging means having a large visual field and exclusive imaging means. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
