Abstract

A mechanism for receiving electronic parts transported by a conveyor belt and dispensing them one at a time, comprises a stop pawl member and a lift pawl member which are disposed forwardly and rearwardly, respectively, along the belt. Each of the pawl members is bifurcated. Both the pawl members can be located either below the belt at their lower positions or above the belt at therir upper positions. A drive device actuates these pawl members to alternately and oppositely take their respective upper positions and lower positions. These pawl members at their lower positions permit the electronic part on the conveyor belt to pass. The stop pawl member at its upper position engages a front face of the electronic part to stop its advance. The lift pawl member at its upper position lifts the electronic part from the belt to urge it against a plate member.
