ABSTRACT:
A feeding device in accordance with the invention comprises a dosing wheel driven by a drive mechanism which rotates on a horizontal axis; a plurality of carrier shelves for receiving the components and attached to an inside periphery of the dosing wheel; an opening disposed in the dosing wheel for supplying the components to the carrier shelves disposed inside the dosing wheel; an inclined sorting groove projecting partly into the dosing wheel and having a V-shaped cross section and a bottom surface having a width corresponding to a width of the components; an open groove positioned between the sorting groove and a covered feeder channel with the open groove having a width which corresponds to the width of the components and with the feeder channel having a cross section corresponding to a cross section of the components; a first air nozzle positioned in front of the feeder channel for blowing away components which are incorrectly oriented to pass into the feeder channel; a forward directed second air nozzle positioned inside the entrance of the feeder channel for blowing the components forward in the feeder channel towards a delivering position; and a delivering mechanism for lifting components in the feeder channel upwards to the delivering position.
