Abstract
This dispensing apparatus provides a high speed feeding device with a one-at-a-time positive delivery of an electrical component having a generally cylindrical body and two wire-like members. The members are disposed to extend one from each end of the body and substantially central thereof. The dispensing apparatus includes a zig-zag feeder or chute from which the electrical component is delivered to cam actuated plunger means which is reciprocated to present a first supportive position and in response to a cam displacement the component is dropped into a receiver pocket and then moved to a discharge position whereat the transferred component is delivered to other operations.
