Improvements are desired in the following points. (1) Since the vibrating bowl feeder is used to rotate the feeding ring 106 in the component feeding device 105, two vibrating bowl feeders are required in combination with the vibrating bowl feeder of the component feeding device 101, and the cost is high. (2) The feeding ring 106 requires processing of a large number of pocket grooves 107. In addition, in order to smoothly rotate the pocket ring 107 on the table 111, processing for imparting a uniform weight balance is required, which increases the cost. (3) With respect to the electrolytic capacitors C having different sizes depending on the type, a plurality of feeding rings 1 having different pocket groove 107 sizes are provided.
It is necessary to prepare 06, which also raises the cost.

The part feeding apparatus according to No. 30224 is preferable in terms of cost because it uses one electromagnetic vibration feeder, and the height of the head H of the electrolytic capacitor C is smaller than the diameter of the bottom surface, and the center of gravity is reduced. An electrolytic capacitor having a low position achieves the intended purpose sufficiently, but an electrolytic capacitor C having a height of the head H larger than the diameter of the bottom surface and having a high center of gravity should be inclined during transfer. Occurrence is not always satisfactory.

る。[Means for Solving the Problems] The above-mentioned problems are solved by forming a suspension path in a part of a track in a bowl of a vibrating parts feeder and suspending the head of an electromagnetic capacitor-like component by the suspension path. The linear lead portion made of two magnetic materials is transferred by the torsional vibration toward the radially outer direction, and the two lead portions are moved by the first strip-shaped permanent magnet arranged radially outward. A suction member is provided, and a strip-shaped restricting member that can engage the longer lead portion of the two lead portions but cannot engage the shorter lead portion is provided and is transferred on the radially inner side. The two lead portions are attracted by a strip-shaped second permanent magnet that is arranged near the head of the component and extends in the transfer direction above or below the head, A turning force is applied to the head to bring the shorter one of the two lead parts closer to the second permanent magnet side, As the magnetic attraction force from the downstream end of the second permanent magnet gradually decreases, the suspension path is bent and formed so that the shorter one or the longer one of the two lead portions faces forward. It is solved by the parts feeding device characterized by the above. In the above-described component feeding apparatus, the head is suspended in the suspension path, and the two lead portions are attracted by the first strip-shaped permanent magnet arranged radially outward, and while taking a substantially recumbent posture. The two permanent magnets are transferred by torsional vibration, and on the way, the two permanent magnets are magnetically attracted to the two lead parts by the second permanent magnets. Depending on whether the second permanent magnet is above or below, the shorter lead portion is moved while being positioned above or below, and the magnetic force gradually decreases at the downstream end of the second permanent magnet. However, this acts as a braking force against the transfer due to so-called torsional vibration, and since the suspension path is bent and formed at the corresponding portion, depending on whether the second permanent magnet is above or below, With the short or long lead part forward It is supplied to the next step. As it does not use two vibrating parts feeders as in the past, the installation area can be kept small and the lead part, which is shorter or longer, can be fed forward to the next process with high efficiency. Can be significantly increased. Alternatively, the present invention provides a transfer surface inclined downward to the outside of the bowl at the uppermost revolution following a flat plate track provided spirally rising along the inner surface of the peripheral wall from the bottom surface of the bowl of the torsional vibration part feeder. The head H of the electrolytic capacitor C is locked immediately above the outer peripheral edge of the transfer surface, but the two leads La and Lb are rotatably inserted, and a peripheral wall provided with a first gap is provided. The two leads La and Lb, which are inserted through the gap, are composed of an annular first magnet provided concentrically with the transfer surface at a position separated from the tips of the long leads La and attracting the long leads La.
The recumbent electrolytic capacitor C leads L on the transfer surface.
a and Lb are inserted radially outward from the first gap, and a suspension track is provided that is transported in a suspended state in which the head H is locked, and the short lead L is transferred during the transportation of the suspension track.
b is provided between the transfer surface and the guide plate, and a guide plate that is provided concentrically with the transfer surface at a position where the long lead La does not contact and guides the long lead La to the lower side (or the upper side) and a short distance between the transfer surface and the guide plate. A second magnet for attracting the lead Lb to the upper side (or the lower side) is provided, and the first gap is narrowed to form two leads L.
a and Lb are provided with a second gap in which they cannot rotate, and the second magnet is omitted to release the attraction to the short lead Lb.
The long lead La is transferred to the gap first, and the short lead Lb follows. Subsequently, the electrolytic capacitor C is supplied to the next process in a vertical posture with the head H gradually raised. Depending on the shape of the guide plate at the location where the first gap is narrowed to the second gap, it is possible to precede the short lead Lb and the long lead Lb.
