ABSTRACT:
A stock feeder has a housing for supporting both the stock and an advancer which coaxially extends through the housing and is formed as a collet which, when clamped, grips the stock and holds the advancer in a fixed relationship with the stock. At the extreme distal end of the advancer the collet is formed with a radially extending lip, and proximal to the collet the advancer is formed with a radially extending ring. A chuck which is formed with a radial groove slidingly surrounds the collet and is movable relative to the advancer. Specifically, the chuck can be moved on the collet between a first position wherein the chuck clamps the collet onto the stock and a second position wherein the collet is released to allow a sliding movement of the stock through the advancer. In either collet configuration, the stock may be rotated. An actuator is engaged with the groove on the chuck and is manipulable to move the chuck between the first and second positions. An abutment formed with a hole for receiving the tube therethrough is held at a distance distal or forward from the housing by an extension arm which interconnects the housing and the abutment. Additionally, a cylindrical-shaped spacer is positioned around the stock between the chuck and the abutment.
