ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for sorting round bearings which include a pair of elongated cylinders that are rotatably supported so that the longitudinal axes thereof diverge, defining a sorting gap between the surface of the cylinders. The cylinders are supported on an inclined plane and are connected to a drive means by means of a flexible driving member for rotating the cylinders in opposite directions. The bearings which are to be sorted are fed onto the cylinders and moved down the inclined plane, down the sorting gap until the width of the sorting gap is sufficient to permit the bearings to drop through the gap into preselected receptacles.
