PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an aligning and feeding device capable of aligning extremely minute articles without requiring complicated adjustment operation.SOLUTION: The aligning and feeding device includes: a rotating plate 3 arranged horizontally; a support plate 5 for supporting the bottom surface of the rotating plate 3; a rotation driving mechanism 15 for holding and rotating the rotating plate 3; guide members 10 and 11 which are arranged above the top surface of the rotating plate 3 with a space in between and guides the alignment target articles toward the peripheral edge of the rotating plate 3 to be aligned; a guide support member 21 for supporting the guide members 10 and 11; and a discharge mechanism for discharging the aligned alignment target articles to the outside. The support plate 5 has a plurality of discharge holes formed to be opened in the top surface, and each of the discharge holes is supplied with high pressure gas from a high pressure gas supply mechanism 30. The rotating plate 3 contacts the bottom surface of the guide members 10 and 11 by means of the high pressure gas supplied to each of the discharge holes. |
