A component supply device is provided with: a component conveyance path (24) that is formed to have a linear shape and that continuously conveys a plurality of slider claws (11) for a slide fastener; and a chute (25) that is formed continuously from the component conveyance path (24) so as to slope downward. The component conveyance path (24) is equipped with an orientation sorting unit (26) that determines the orientation of a claw (11), allows the conveyance of a normally oriented claw (11), and removes an abnormally oriented claw (11) from the component conveyance path (24). As a result, claws (11) can be stably supplied in a predetermined orientation using a compact configuration. |
