ABSTRACT:
A serial-orienting and feeding apparatus is disclosed which includes a stationary support fixed substantially midway between the rim of a rotatable tub and the bottom of the tub. A disc is mounted for rotation on the support surface, the surface configuration of the disc being defined by the support surface such that the uppermost portion of the periphery of the disc is immediately adjacent the rim of the tub. The rim and tub are coaxially driven by a common motor driving a two-ended reductor having a chain and sprocket drive on each end. The relative angular velocities of the tub and disc are determined by the sprocket sizes employed. The disc is preferably composed of an artificial resin; i.e., a molded or cast plastic, such as urethane having appropriate elastomeric and surface friction characteristics relative to the articles to be handled by the apparatus.
