MAGAZINE FOR MINIATURE CHIP

摘要

A magazine for miniature chips which stores a plurality of miniature chips and can supply miniature chips one by one. In the top face of a magazine block (11), a storing portion (11a) is formed wherein a plurality of miniature chips (302) are slidably arranged and stored, and the front end of the storing portion (11a) is made to serve as a supply portion (11b). A pushing mechanism (12 to 19) for pushing out the miniature chips (302) stored in the storing portion (11a) to the supply port (11b) and supplying them to the supply port (11b) one by one is also provided in the magazine. On the top face of a jaw portion (11h) of the magazine block (11), guide members (5, 6) are provided which protrude above the storing portion (11a) from both sides immediately in the back of the supply port (11b). Since the miniature chips (302) are guided by the guide members (5, 6), they can be supplied to the supply port (11b) without any inclination.
