<p>A screw feed belt (3) is used to hold a plurality of screws (4) and includes a flexible elongated strap (30) formed with a plurality of spaced-apart and aligned openings (32), each of which is defined by an annular confining wall (320). Positioning rings (33) are disposed respectively in the openings (32), and have an inner periphery (34) that defines a positioning hole (340) for extension of the shank portion (40) of one of the screws (4) and for frictional contact with the shank portion (40), and an outer periphery (36) surrounded by and spaced-apart from the confining wall (320) of the respective opening (32). The positioning hole (340) is smaller than the head portion (41) of the screws (4) so that the latter can rest on the positioning ring (33) when the screw (4) extends through the positioning hole (340). A plurality of connecting ribs (35) extend radially and integrally between the outer periphery (36) of a respective positioning ring (33) and the confining wall (320) of a corresponding opening (32), and are breakable to permit the respective positioning ring (33) and the screw (4) that extends through the latter to separate from the strap (30) when the screw (4) is rotated axially. <IMAGE></p> |
