<p>The invention relates to a separation device for separating a first component (5a) from a row of components disposed in a supply duct (2) by means of a separation member (6) disposed after an outlet (4) of the supply duct, which separation member (6) has a recess (7) for receiving the first component (5a) of the row, which recess has side walls (8, 9) oriented in the longitudinal direction (10) of the duct (2) and between which the component is engageable. In order to ensure a trouble-free separation of components the length of one of the side walls (8) is equal to the minimum component length (11) and the length of the other side wall is equal to the maximum component length (12). When a component (5a) has engaged the separation member (6) the separation member is moved transversely to the longitudinal direction of the supply duct (2) in a direction from the shorter side wall (8) to the longer side wall (9).</p> |
