ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for sorting round bearings which includes a pair of elongated cylinders that are rotatably supported so that the longitudinal axes thereof are diverging defining a sorting gap between the surfaces of the cylinders. The cylinders are carried on an incline with a driving member connected to one end thereof for rotating the cylinders in opposite directions. Timing gears connecting the lower ends of the cylinders together for positively synchronizing the rotation of the cylinders relative to each other so that the same points on the cylinders appear at the sorting gap on each revolution of the cylinders. The bearings which are to be sorted are fed onto the cylinders and moved down the sorting gap until the width of the sorting gap is sufficient to allow them to drop through into receptacles. The cylinders are supported by means of a set of supporting bearings and a set of guide bearings.
