PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a part feeder which is capable of transferring a part smoothly. SOLUTION: Permanent magnets M are arranged at a regular interval under a region of a belt 7 which is used for transferring a part P, and the part P transferred by the belt 7 is attracted by the magnetic force of the permanent magnets M to be brought into close contact with the surface of the belt 7. Therefore, even if the contact resistance of the part P in transit to a guide groove 5a is applied to the part P, the parts P are surely prevented from being levitated or tilted and smoothly transferred as kept proper in arrangement. Moreover, a permanent magnet M is not provided under the belt 7 at a part outlet position, so that the part P is not prevented from being led onto the belt 7 from a vertical passage 5b and from being turned over by the magnetic force of the magnet M with the movement of the belt 7. |
