A parts feeding apparatus includes a plurality of cassettes respectively holding therein rows of parts of different types and removably attached to a plurality of parts supply openings arranged at predetermined angular intervals along the peripheral edge of a rotating circular plate. The circular plate is intermittently rotatable so that a selected one of the parts supply openings and the cassette attached thereto are positioned relative to the inlet opening of a parts delivery chute. An open lower end of the cassette is opened and closed at predetermined time intervals by a reciprocating slide plate member disposed in a parts supply unit. The parts feeding apparatus thus constructed is compact in size and simple in construction. Since the cassettes are arranged on the same circumference on the circular plate, the parts to be fed can be automatically and smoothly changed or switched from one type to another. Thus, the apparatus is readily adaptable to the production of articles of different types to be manufactured in relatively small lots or in relatively large lots.

Dispositif d'alimentation de pièces muni d'un certain nombre de compartiments contenant respectivement des rangées de pièces de divers types reliés de manière non permanente à plusieurs orifices d'alimentation de pièces distribués à intervalles angulaires prédéterminés sur la circonférence d'un plateau circulaire rotatif. On peut faire tourner ce plateau circulaire par intermittence pour aligner un orifice d'alimentation de pièces choisi ainsi que le compartiment correspondant en face de l'orifice d'entrée d'une goulotte de distribution de pièces. Une extrémité inférieure ouvrante du compartiment s'ouvre et se ferme à des intervalles prédéterminés au moyen d'une plaque coulissante placée au niveau d'une unité d'alimentation de pièces qui effectue un mouvement de va-et-vient. Ainsi conçu, cet appareil d'alimentation de pièces est de format compact et de construction simple. Étant donné que les compartiments sont disposés sur une même circonférence du plateau circulaire, les pièces peuvent être changées automatiquement et en douceur ou passer d'un type à un autre. Cet appareil est ainsi directement susceptible d'être utilisé pour la production d'articles de diverses sortes qu'il s'agirait de fabriquer en petites ou en grandes séries.
