ABSTRACT:
To provide a compact parts feeding apparatus capable of reducing the parts stock in the line, and facilitate the exchange between different kinds of devices, a first transfer unit 200A of a transferring and positioning arrangement 200C of a parts feeding apparatus 200, transfers a tray T carrying parts PB upward in a first direction Z1 from a conveyor arrangement 14. A positioning unit 200D positions the tray T carrying the parts PB in a determined position within the assembly range of an assembling body 10 of the first transfer unit 200A. A second transfer unit 200B descends in a second direction Z2 opposite to the first direction, to transfer the positioned tray T to the first transfer unit 200a or to discharge the tray T after it has been emptied of parts onto the conveyor arrangement 14.
