A component supply device includes a transport path that guides a component connected body from a component insertion port on an upstream side in a component feeding direction to a component supply position on a downstream side, the component connected body including a plurality of axial components arranged and connected at a predetermined pitch, the plurality of axial components each having a lead, and a feed mechanism that pitch-feeds the component connected body along the transport path to the downstream side. The feed mechanism includes a feed member which has a plurality of feed hooks disposed at the predetermined pitch along the component feeding direction, a rotating shaft which is connected to one end side of the feed member, and a moving mechanism which is connected to the feed member through the rotating shaft and reciprocates the rotating shaft along the component feeding direction. A length of one feed hook among the plurality of feed hooks is longer than a length of an other feed hook among the plurality of feed hooks, the other feed hook being adjacent to the one feed hook on the rotating shaft side.

A bending device is provided in a tape feeder. In the bending device, lead wires of a bending target lead component that has reached a bending position of lead component tape fed by a feeding device are bent. In addition, as the lead wires are cut by a cutting device, bent lead components are separated from a carrier tape, and the bent lead components are supplied one by one. In this manner, in the tape feeder, as the lead wires of the lead component tape are bent, the bent lead components are supplied.

A component feeder including a feeding mechanism configured to intermittently feed taped components in a feeding direction at a specified feeding pitch to a supply position; first lead cutting mechanism configured to, for separating the component positioned at the supply position from the carrier tape, in a case in which the component has three leads, cut two of the leads Leo that are on an outer side of the three leads at a given position such that a length by which the two leads protrudes from the component main body is a first length; and second lead cutting mechanism configured to, before the cutting of the two leads by the first lead cutting mechanism, cut a single lead that is at a center of the three leads positioned forward of the supply position in the feeding direction to a second length that is shorter than the first length.

A bending device to bend leads of a component one by one in the same direction at different timings. The bending device including a support block below the component that is movable in a vertical direction; a pair of support members fixed to the support block, the pair of support members contacting and supporting the leads of the component from below; a pair of clamp arms swingably held to the support block, the pair of clamp arms contacting and clamping the leads of the component from above; and a pair of bending rollers arranged above the leads of the component that bend the leads at the different timings.
