ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for supplying an electronic component to a mounting head of an electronic component mounting machine in such a manner that a lead guard interconnecting the front ends of leads of the electronic component is separated from a body of the electronic component before the electronic component is picked up by the mounting head. The apparatus includes a lower mold movable between a receiving position in which an electronic component having a lead guard is received on a die on the lower mold, a punching position in which the lead guard is separated from the body of the electronic component by a punch cooperating with the die and a picking-up position in which the electronic component devoid of the lead guard is picked up from the die. The electronic component supplied from a chute to a component rest is delivered by a transfer unit to the die while at rest in the receiving position. The transfer unit may include a vacuum nozzle for releasably holding the electronic component. The lower mold is moved preferably by a motor-driven ball screw.
