PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a machine having an effect to smoothen supply of balls and eliminate an operational error. SOLUTION: The balls 1 pooled in a hopper 8 gather along an inclination of a bottom part of the hopper 8 to a central groove part. The width of the groove is set to receive one ball. A slitter 12 is arranged inside the groove so as not to project upward, and the ball 1 is received on an aligning groove provided in an upper part of the slitter 12. When a sensor 2 recognizes no ball, a cylinder 13 is operated to vertically lift the slitter 12 in the hopper. The aligning groove is provided in the upper part of the slitter 12 to receive one row of the balls and the slitter 12 is lifted to scoop one row of the balls 1. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
