Electronic components have been reduced in size year by year, and there are many electronic components less than 1 mm in length and width in recent years. Along with the miniaturization of such electronic components, there have been the following problems in the conventional transport jig and the electronic component automatic measurement and sorting device using the jig. . The miniaturized electronic component may shift in position, change direction, or drop during conveyance, making it difficult to convey the electronic component in a stable state. Therefore, even if the polarities are determined and the directions are aligned, there is a serious problem that the polarities may be reversed again and the taping process may be performed as it is. . Since one transport jig can transport only one type of electronic component having the same dimensions (size), if there are several types of electronic components having different sizes, a transport jig must be prepared for each electronic component. Instead, the cost increases. . Since the conventional transport jig has the above-mentioned problems,
There is a similar problem in a measuring device using the transport jig.
