Abstract:
Before using a load cell to measure a load (nozzle load) arising during relative movement between a suction tube and a pipe of a suction nozzle, the suction nozzle and a metal contact tool are moved towards each other by a set load with the metal contact tool contacting the tip section of the suction tube. When the suction tube and the pipe has moved relatively by set amount due to the suction nozzle and metal contact tool being moved towards each other, the nozzle load of the suction nozzle is measured using the load cell. Nozzle load is measured only for a suction nozzle for which relative movement of the suction tube and the pipe has been confirmed, and nozzle load is measured appropriately without damaging the load sensor.

Claim (Index 5):
A collection method for collecting the suction nozzle judged not to be normal based on the load extracted in the first load extracting step or the second load extracting step, the collection method comprising:\n a holding step of holding, via a holding tool, the suction nozzle for which the load extracted in the first load extracting step or the second load extracting step exceeds, a predetermined tolerance load; a moving step of moving, via a moving device, the holding tool that held the suction nozzle in the holding step above an inclined surface of a collection box with a bottom surface configured from the inclined surface and an uninclined flat surface connected to a lower edge of the inclined surface; and a releasing step of releasing the suction nozzle from the holding tool after the holding tool has been moved above the inclined surface in the moving step.
