ABSTRACT:
A device for feeding a bolt-shaped element having a head and a shank to a processing unit, in particular for feeding a screw to a die head of a press. The bolt-shaped element can be fed along a firing direction of the device and the latter has a conveyer channel, which is configured to line up several bolt-shaped elements and to transport them to the processing unit. The device is equipped with a receiving hopper that tapers in the firing direction. The hopper is configured to receive shaft-end of the bolt-shaped element first and is formed of several hopper segments. One of the hopper segments is formed by a feed element that can be displaced in order to transport the bolt-shaped fixing elements in a linear manner and at least another of which is formed by a blocking element that protrudes into the conveyer channel.
