しまう。 FIG. 1 is an enlarged plan view of a part of a component receiver 1 (hereinafter referred to as a ball) of such a parts feeder, and a spiral component transfer track 2 is formed on the inner circumferential wall surface of the component receiver 1 (hereinafter referred to as a ball). is transferred on this track 2 in the direction of the arrow under the torsional vibration force. A cut-out 4 is formed in a part of the track 2, so that the track 2 becomes a narrow path through which the sideways parts 3' are allowed to fall into the lower part of the track. Part 3 with the longitudinal direction facing the transport direction
The ball 1 is intended to proceed as it is, and supply one piece from the unillustrated discharge end of the track to the next process with the longitudinal direction facing the conveying direction.
Because of the torsional vibration, the component 3 not only repeatedly collides with the transport surface of the track 2 on the bottom surface, but also the side wall portion 2'
(Generally, the track 2 is inclined slightly downward toward the side wall 2') and collisions are repeated at angles a and b. For this reason, the component 3 does not always pass through the narrow path stably, but may fall into the track section below, similar to the sideways component 3'. This will reduce the ability to supply parts to the next process.

る。 When the electromagnets 16 and 24 of the parts feeder 10 and the vibration feeder 20 are energized, the ball 11 performs torsional vibration A and the trough 21 performs linear vibration B as is known. Part 3 in ball 11 is track 1
2 and go up on track 22 of trough 21.
to move to. The width of the track 22 is smaller than half the length of the part 3 as shown in FIG. 4, but larger than half the width of the part, so that the part oriented laterally (indicated by the dashed line in FIG. 4) falls from this track 22 and is expelled through a slope 27 formed on a portion of the ball 11 into the lower track portion 12 of the ball 11. On the other hand, the part 3 with its longitudinal direction facing the transport direction continues on the track 22, transfers to the track 12 of the ball 11, and is supplied from the track 12 to the next process in the same position.
