ABSTRACT:
A plurality of lengths of wires in a hopper are fed to a drum having spaced slots which receive the wires and advance them to a station at which a terminal is attached to the end. Difficulty is experienced when moving a length of wire from the group in the hopper and delivering it to a slot in the drum. A driven belt forms the wall at the rear of the hopper for rolling the lengths of wire downwardly about a feed wheel which has a passage thereabout defined by a face of a pawl. The bottom and outer surfaces of the pawl are urged by the ends of spring pressed plungers toward the feed wheel so as to be full-floating in the plane of the belt and laterally thereof.
