Abstract:
A loose piece feeder comprising a slotted, inclined track extending down at an angle. alpha. from a cylindrically-shaped reservoir holding small terminals or pieces to an applicator station. The slotted track enters the reservoir through a window in the bottom of the side wall thereof and extends across the cylinder bottom along a chord line thereof which lies below the axis of the tilted reservoir. A brush oscillates back and forth across the track slot within the reservoir and, when moving away from said window, tends to brush away improperly seated connectors, and, when moving towards said window, tends to properly seat said connectors in said track slot and to push said properly seated connectors out of said window and down said inclined track towards said work station, aided by vibrating the entire system.
