A hopper(A) controls the rapid, uniform and const. flow of bottle crowns. The hopper employs a reservoir(B) and means for feeding the bottle crowns(C) to the reservoir. An electric eye(D) responsive to the level of the bottle crowns in the reservoir is connected to the feeding means(C) to maintain a predetermined level of the bottle crowns in the reservoir. A conveyor(E) is positioned to adjoin the reservoir to remove and deliver the bottle crowns at a uniform rate to the point of use of the hoppered objects. If the bottle crowns are asymmetrical, an orienting device(F) is provided between the feeding means and the reservoir to orient the bottles as they are delivered to the reservoir.
