<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a feeder for correctly supplying a warped material, and coping with an increase in supply speed. <P>SOLUTION: The supplied material feeder comprises: a stacking section 30 storing a packing material 14 in a vertically stacked state; a kicker 32 reciprocating to push out the lowermost packing material in the stacking section 30 laterally along a conveying surface 34, insert it through a gate 31 and supply it to an intermediate supply position P1; a tubular vertical guide section 52 guiding the packing material having reached the intermediate supply position P1 vertically downward; and a pusher 54 reciprocating to vertically push out the packing material 14 along the vertical guide section 52 and supply it to a final supply position P2. A suction port 36 is formed on a lower surface of the stacking section 30. A suction port 54c is formed on a push-out surface in contact with the packing material 14, of the pusher 54. A negative pressure state is always formed below the suction port 36 and above the suction port 54c by sucking action of a blower 42. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
