PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize a supply device capable of smoothly feeding annular-shaped rubber components such as packings to a top position facing a robot and stably extracting the rubber components at the top position one by one to achieve stable supply.SOLUTION: An annular-shaped rubber component supply method comprises: an alignment step of aligning and suspending a plurality of packings P in an axial direction on a pair of roller shafts 22 arranged on a horizontal base 21 with inclinations and respectively rotatable about axes; a conveyance step of feeding the plurality of packings P in the axial direction by rotating the pair of roller shafts 22 in a direction in which upper ends of the roller shafts 22 are mutually directed inward to reduce a frictional force; a grasping step of grasping the packing P at a top position by a chuck claw of a component outlet portion 3 facing an end portion of a lower end side of each roller shafts 22; and a take-out step of taking out the packing P at the top position upward while pressing from above the packing P adjacent to the packing P at the top position with a picking stopper located closer to the roller shafts 22 than the chuck claw. |
