PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reliably distribute a plurality of work-pieces at low costs without using a complicated mechanism. ! SOLUTION: A work-piece distribution mechanism 10 includes two distribution paths 12A and 12B and a branch section 14. The branch section 14 has a leading end P provided so as to be displaced to a direction of the distribution path 12B with respect to a central axis of a transportation direction x of a transportation path 30. Accordingly, a plurality of work-pieces W transported from the transportation path 30 are preferentially distributed to the distribution path 12A by the branch section 14 in a state that the plurality of work-pieces W are not held in the distribution path 12A. Further, the work-pieces W transported therefrom are distributed to the distribution path 12B by the work-pieces W held in the distribution path 12A and the branch section 14 in a state that the work-pieces W are held in the distribution path 12A. Therefore, since the work-piece distribution mechanism 10 d |
