Component depositing device
10531600 · 2020-01-07 · ·

A component depositing device in which components P stored inside storage container 140 in a bulk state are consecutively conveyed above depositing path 154 by rotating multiple magnets 142 in a first direction, the conveyed components are stopped by stopping wall 156 provided above the depositing path so as to fall onto the depositing path, thereby depositing a specified amount of the components into a case, wherein, when the specified amount of components has been deposited, the multiple magnets are stopped at a position such that the magnets currently pulling a component are not positioned above the depositing path. For example, the multiple magnets are stopped after being reverse rotated by a set angle. Because a magnet currently conveying a component is not above the depositing path when component depositing is completed, components are prevented from falling into the depositing path after component depositing is complete, thus preventing component blockages at the depositing path.
