ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for orienting and placing a button for attachment to a garment comprises a guide having a button guide channel, and a spring-biased locking lever pivotable on a button pushing slide slidably mounted on the guide. The pushing slide has a stepped end portion engageable at its tip end with the button head on its peripheral edge. The locking lever has a flanged end portion extending beyond the stepped end portion and terminating in a pair of claws for catching therebetween a tab disposed on the reverse side of the button head. The guide channel is defined by a side wall and a friction member. The friction member has a frictional surface tangentially engageable with the button head for causing the button to turn or roll, when the latter is pushed by the pushing lever in the guide channel, until the tab of the button is catched by the claws.
