ABSTRACT:
A gasket holding and feeding magazine is described which includes a plurality of similar, adjacent compartments, each of which is sized to hold a single gasket therein. The magazine is moved over a stationary floor plate within which is formed a bottom opening of size to permit a gasket to drop therethrough. As each compartment of the magazine is moved into registry above the floor opening, a gasket will drop through the opening and will be directed to a lower gasket holding and clamping plate. The clamping plate securely holds the gasket to allow a belling mandrel to be inserted through the clamping plate and to secure the gasket. The mandrel will then automatically pick-up the gasket as the mandrel is advanced relative to the clamping plate whereby the gasket will be automatically inserted into the pipe end during the belling operation. Upon completion of the pipe bell and cooling of the belled end, when the mandrel is withdrawn, the gasket will remain encapsulated within the belled end of the pipe.
