PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate tool-based ejection of small parts heated up and level out their heating temperatures by automatically storing them in a planned erect posture. SOLUTION: The small parts feeder comprises a hopper 3 in which parts M are introduced; posture control means 4 that include a spiral guideway 4a delimited in the hopper 3, a sloping surface 4b delimited along the guideway 4a and a first vibration generator 4c placed on the bottom of the hopper 3, and that place the parts M introduced in the hopper 3 in a planned erect posture; a delivery trough 5 connected to a delivery port 3a of the hopper 3 to feed the erect parts M as they are in the posture; a standby trough 8 connected to the delivery trough 5 to receive the erect parts M as they are in the posture and to keep them ready for ejection; heating means 11 installed near the standby trough 8; and a second vibration generator disposed on the bottom of the standby trough 8 to advance the parts M along it.
