ABSTRACT:
Intermediate a component inserting machine and its lead clinching mechanism, a turret-type work support carries one or more detachable circuit boards and is rotatable about a vertical axis as well as movable in their general plane under the control of programmed power means. The latter is effective to cause a pivot means on the support and a cooperative surface or stop means to shift the support and its boards angularly at predetermined times and to a predetermined extent. Accordingly, without need to angularly reposition the inserter or clinching means, the automatically positioned work support enables the boards to receive components in various predetermined angular relations (most commonly at right angles), and boards may be loaded and unloaded on the turret while other boards thereon are concurrently having components mounted therein.
The arrangement avoids the hazard present when boards are manually repositioned, and generally enhances productivity.
