In an automatic fastener assembling machine, an automatic lower-fastener-element supply apparatus includes a guide member (36) horizontally reciprocable in timed relation to vertical movement of a punch (18), and a die (32) supported by the guide member (36) and movable, in response to reciprocating movement of the guide member (36), between a fastener transfer position in which the die (32) is contiguous to the lower end of a chute (4) to receive a lower fastener element (P2) therefrom, and a fastener joining position in which the die (32) is vertically aligned with the punch (18). |
